I've updated Android Studio to version 3.2.
After that update one of my projects don't want to index.
It freezes with the message
"Indexing paused due to batch update".
How can I fix this?
File gradle-wrapper.properties:
distributionBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
distributionPath=wrapper/dists
zipStoreBase=GRADLE_USER_HOME
zipStorePath=wrapper/dists
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.4-all.zip
File gradle-properties:
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1536m
org.gradle.parallel=true
org.gradle.daemon=true
org.gradle.configureondemand=true
I faced the same issue with Android Studio 3.2. Invalidated the cache and restarted Android Studio, but it still did not work for me. Then I just re-imported the project and it worked!
Just Restart (File > Invalidate Cache & Restart > Just Restart)
I faced this issue in Android Studio 3.+ when forcefully close Studio in between some gradle process.
Pressing the play button worked for me. It finished indexing and installed the apk in seconds. The catch is that I have to do this every time and batch does not seem to update.
Click on the play button to the right of the progress bar.
Press the play button to the right of this message and the issue would resolve.
You have to do it every time, because right now the problem is systematic and there is no solution to stop it from appearing.
I invalidated the cache and restarted Android Studio. That worked for me.
You can do this by:
File > Invalidate Caches / Restart > Invalidate and Restart
I faced this issue many times and what I did everytime is:
Firstly, click on the processing bar on the bottom of the android studio.
A pop up window will appear on the screen like this-
Click on the red circled Play button and let the process complete.
Please note that you will have to repeat this everytime you face this issue because this is some kind of bug or something in AS version 3.2
Optional: click on (-) minimize button if you want to the pop-up to minimize
I faced the same issue, it seems that Android Studio messes up the cache.
Go to File > Invalidate Caches and Restart
Then on the Pop Up that appears choose Invalidate and Restart
Seems like there is an issue with Android Studio itself. I fixed the issue for now by following these steps:
Click File > Invalidate Caches / Restart
On the pop up choose Invalidate and Restart
Invalidated the cache -> restarted Android Studio -> re-import the project from the project location. Its worked for me
This is an issue in Android Studio since v3.2, I have posted an issue in Android Studio Issue Tracker, it's being finally accepted. Waiting for them to solve it.
Here is the issue tracker, you can follow up from here.
please star the issue as well to help solving it.
Stay Connected to internet.Let the batch to be updated.Wait one time and it will be easy the next time. OR...Click on the play button.
I saw this error and none of the solutions posted here worked for me. I had a specific scenario (see below), and I could get rid of the problem in my specific scenario. Not sure if the OP had the same scenario, by here are my two cents:
In my specific case I had two projects open in Android Studio, where one of the project was from a sshfs-mounted directory (the other project was local to my computer). I believe that made Android Studio throw the "Indexing paused due to batch updated" message on, strangely, both the projects.
To get rid of the error on the local project, I had to close the remote mounted project. On closing that project, the message was gone for my local project.
Hope that helps.
Close your project
Go to your project root directory,
Find and delete the xxx.iml file, the .idea and .gradle folders
Re-open your project using Android Studio.
I had the same issue and I fixed by do the following:
Click File --> click on Invalidate Caches / Restart
You will see a pop up--> select Invalidate and Restart
I did it by exporting the project into zip file and open it like normal. you can export by clicking the file navbar and choose export to zip file
I faced the same Issue but the situation which lead to this was different:
I created a remote branch on the project's repository on GitHub and it was empty.
And then I checkout to that branch locally while android studio was running.
I then deleted the local repository and created it again but this time it was not empty. Further I pushed the code to the remote branch as well.Now I thought that it will start the project normally but again the same happened.it resulted in an IDE error.
To solves this issue I deleted that local repository and again re-imported it.Than it started correctly.
None of the other answers worked for me. Not even pressing the "play" button. All that worked was closing the project and re-opening it via "Open an existing Android Studio project".
The effect only lasts for a single session. As soon as I close and re-open the project, or AS 3.3, the problem re-appears.
Deleting C:\Users\<user>\.AndroidStudio3.3\config\options\recentProjects.xml (before starting AS 3.3) is an alternative way to accomplish the same thing.
EDIT
Upon upgrading to AS 3.3.2, this solution no longer worked. However, after an "Invalidate Caches and Restart", the problem disappeared.
Click on play button twice and then go to file->Invalidate Caches / Restart...
repeat this process every time whenever you face this issue.
I solved it by deleting all the *.iml files and the .idea folder
I faced the same issue, because my AS version is not the same with gradle plugin's version.
This issue coccus randomly in Android Studio V3.+ [Issue tracker:https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/118523471] .
There might be multiple reasons for this issue but it is mainly either ".gradle" related or ".iml" file related IntelliJ/Android Studio configurations.
Possible solutions:
Click on play icon under the processing bar (on the bottom of the android studio). But be aware that multiple clicks may also kill the the indexing process.
Invalidate cache (File -> Invalidate Cache & Restart -> Just Restart)
Clean ((Build -> Clean project) and Rebuild (Build -> Rebuild Project)
Sync Project with Gradle Files: Available options (depending on the Android Studio version) at
Tools -> Android -> Sync Project with Gradle Files
button available at top left corner in Android Studio's toolbar
File -> Sync Project with Gradle Files
Delete the .idea & .gradle folders and .idea & .iml files from the project root directory and re-import the project
I have faced this issue quite a few times and got rid of then by using one or more of above solutions.
But in some scenario nothing of the above solutions may work (as recently I get trapped-in). In this case I have to recreate the same project from scratch and copied back the required files into it. But ideally this should not be the solution. Please let me know if any other possible solution is there.
Invalidate cache and restart did the work for me. Now, the build is compiling in seconds.
When i run android studio it freeze on indexing and show me message:
indexing suspended (context: Gradle Sync)
it take more then 42 min and still show me this message i can't stop process and almost every thing is disable
Solutions I've tried
1- enable offline mode
2- select local gradle
3- invalidate caches/ Restart
but no one of this is solve my problem .
I've solved closing project (Menu File -> Close Project) and reopening it selecting his build.gradle.
Hope that helps
In my case, syncing the project with file system helped. But the project uses react-native and many gradle modules are located in the node_modules folder which could be updated by yarn/npm.
Everytime an imported project requires a specific version of gradle I don't have, it starts to sync. At this time, I close Android Studio, connect to vpn, and reopen Android Studio to sync gradle; however, sync never ends. Then I go to .gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-xxx-all and nothing is downloaded (zip.part 0Kb). When I connect to vpn I can access gradle.org and download manually. Is this a bug with Android Studio or gradle?
There are many similar questions and most are solved by manually downloading the zip package. None solve the problem completely, though.
Follow below step to set automatically gradle sync in your android studio.
File -> Settings -> Build,Execution,Deployment ->Build tools -> gradle ->
check Use Default gradle wrapper(recommended) radiobutton.
Also follow below step to restart your android studio for invalid cache restart.
File > Invalidate Caches/Restart (you can also manually remove the cache at ~/Library/Caches/{yourIDEName} and restart the IDE)
Then save settings and rebuild your project.
Edit: See Android 1.5 Gradle Sync never completes to get more idea.
I hope its helps you.
When I close a file (not close Android Studio) and re-open that file, I do not want Android Studio to save its undo history. Is there a way to prevent Android Studio from saving file undo history after file close?
As in NetBeans (or most editors for that matter), I like it that I cannot undo anything in a file once I close and re-open that file. Is there some setting I can change or some config file I can modify to prevent Android Studio from remembering file undo history after I close that file? I couldn't find anything obvious in the "Settings...", but I could have overlooked it.
You've an interesting question. I'm also overlooked all settings and can't find anything similar.
But I find, that Android Studio (based on IntelliJ IDEA) have special mechanism called Local History. It locally stores all your changes. And accroding to the documentation:
Local history is cleared when you install a new version of IntelliJ
IDEA or when you invalidate caches. Therefore, check in the changes to
your version control system before performing these operations.
I didn't find any other ways to clear Local History, so I think there are no ones.
On the main menu, choose File | Invalidate Caches/Restart.
I am a starter in android development and I started off with eclipse.. But it started giving lot of problems. So I switched to android studio. Got it set up successfully and for couple of weeks it was ok. Now, for some reason, the auto complete feature is not working. It is not giving any choices while typing, so I tried ctrl-enter. It says no suggestions. I browsed through similar queries and tried the following.
Disabling Power Save in File menu.
Checking basic complete and smart type completion in IDE settings (editor)
Invalidate caches and restart.
But non of these seems to work.
Try with CTRL + space and you will get the drop down .
I had the same issue and solved it.
Go File> Invalidate Caches / Restart... > Click at Invalidate and Restart
Then you can also check if Power Save Mode on File menu is disabled.

These following steps are working for me:
Close android studio
Go to path/.AndroidStudio3.5/system/ delete caches folder
Start Android Studio
You should Try this way File->Invalidate Caches/Restart or you can find solution by using below link

In my case on Android Studio Artic Fox edition there were strange problems with autocompletion and suggestions because of old version of Gradle plugin. I have updated to
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.1.1'
classpath 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.4.21'
and it worked as expected. Hope it will be helpful for new visitors like in my case it would.
In Ubuntu 21 I had tried
$ rm -rf ~/.cache/Google/AndroidStudio2020.3/caches/
I followed all the steps from various answers and sources, still didn't get it to work. Code completion and Syntax Highlighting was not working.
I restarted using Invalidate Caches and did Gradle Sync atleast 10 times.
It was working in main flavor, but not in other flavors! In this project we have multiple flavors.
So finally the solution was found using
Android Studio product flavors only recognized one out of two flavours
Just selecting the correct Build Variant solved my issue.
Delete everything inside caches folder
C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Google\AndroidStudio<version_x>\caches
and restart android studio
