Gradle: download gradle takes "very long time", activity_main.xml keeps showing "Loading"

I have installed Android Studio today. I'm a newbie to Android development. I know that it has been asked several times, but my Android Studio is most updated as of now, so none of the solution seems to work. [AndroidStudio v3.6]
After the installation got over, I attempted to create an Empty Project. It opened the whole project as seen below,
After waiting for 7+ minutes (bottom-left), gradle is still not downloaded, and the activity_main.xml file keeps showing "Loading".
Solution 1 - Change the gradle location
I found this location to C:\Users\RAHUL.LAPTOP-DISIIAS2\.gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-5.6.4-all\ankdp27end7byghfw1q2sw75f, but it contains two files - one is gradle-5.6.4-all.zip.part and other is gradle-5.6.4-all.zip.lck file.
Solution 2 - Invalidate and restart
Doesn't seem to work
Solution 3 - Change gradle settings to work in offline mode
The version I'm using doesn't have the option
How can I fix it?
Here is my gradle-wrapper.properties file:

First, check if you are connected to http\://services.gradle.org/distributions with ping command in Command Prompt. If you are connected, then change Proxy Settings in Android Studio to Use System Proxy. If it is downloading slowly again, your internet connection may be slow. Or you best fallow guidelines in this link : Gradle Download: Installing Manually
Then work in offline mode will appear in your settings.

Cannot create service of type TaskExecuter using ProjectExecutionServices

Android Studio 3.6.1 Gradle Version 5.6.4
Gradle Buid Error
Cannot create service of type TaskExecuter using ProjectExecutionServices.createTaskExecuter() as there is a problem with parameter #22 of type ReservedFileSystemLocationRegistry.
Cannot create service of type ReservedFileSystemLocationRegistry using ProjectExecutionServices.createReservedFileLocationRegistry() as there is a problem with parameter #1 of type List<ReservedFileSystemLocation>.

had same issue, stopping Gradle using the command below fixed it for me:
gradle --stop
or if you are using wrapper, use:
./gradlew --stop

I simply had to restart my PC for this to get fixed. Unfortunately I didn't try this until after I tried most of the other solutions. 🙄

I also had this when I tried building on my ExFAT formatted ssd on macos. Reformatting it using APFS solved it.

did u face this issue in react native,
go to android folder
open the terminal
if u using vscode terminal(powershell) use -> ./gradlew --stop
otherwise -> gradle --stop

in flutter or react-native go to android folder and run this in cmd
gradlew --stop
next
gradlew clean
to rebuild android or simple so you can restart your computer and run your flutter or react-native project again

For me the source of this error was wrong permissions within the project. A sudo chown -R <username> . within the project's root fixed those issues.

For anyone who has their project on their external drive
Try moving it to your local drive
This worked for me
(MacOS Monterey)

I ran into the same issue when trying to deploy another project on the same virtual device. For me it was solved by selecting "Wipe Data" for that Virtual Device in Android Virtual Device Manager.

Backing up the answer from Alex. I got this issue when my project is in my external drive. I played around with device permission, file permission and even updated my android studio since I use VS Code for my flutter projects.
Finally made a sample project on android studio and thankfully got the same error message from Gradle. In this way, I knew the issue is not related to the VS code. As Alex said, I wiped the data from android device manager. But I got into some other issue. I let the virtual device to start completely and ran the project again and it worked.

I had the same issue until I disabled the "Use detected ADB location" under Emulator Extended Controls > Settings. Restarted the emulator and was able to "Run" without any errors occurring anymore. Preview of "Use detected ADB location" setting.

Creating a new project or performing a clean on any other project except the current one where the error exist solved the problem for me.

Remove the caches directory under c:\Users<Your user name directory>.gradle directory and do the build again. It worked for me.

I have faceed same issues in my flutter project for multiple build process and out of memory then I copy project from one folder to another folder and open project from android studio. It's working perfectly.

In my situation this worked, I'm using Android Studio on Windows 10
I installed JDK and added its installed path into my environment variable under name JAVA_HOME ([follow solution 2][1])
just added --stop run configuration on android/gradlew
[![enter image description here][2]][2]
4. ran android/grandlew
[![enter image description here][3]][3]
remove --stop that you did step 3 and click on okay
6.If not work just restart android studio and follow step 4 again

Android Studio reports "Unable to start the daemon process"

I have searched the internet, trying to fix this and nothing has worked.
I have:
deleted my .gradle folder and let Android Studio generate a new one,
changed JVM options,
changed Java global variables in Windows,
updated sdk, ndk, jre, jdk, Android Studio and Windows
changed file paths of these things so they don't have spaces.
and I can't get rid of this error in Android Studio.
Unable to start the daemon process.
This problem might be caused by incorrect configuration of the daemon.
For example, an unrecognized jvm option is used.
Please refer to the user guide chapter on the daemon at https://docs.gradle.org/4.6/userguide/gradle_daemon.html
Please read the following process output to find out more:

And that's all it says. I have no idea how to solve this.

Android Studio 2.3 error: "Gradle sync failed: Cause: services.gradle.org"

After I open a new project in Android Studio 2.3, I receive an error such as:
Gradle sync failed: Cause: services.gradle.org
Googling just gave me a log file on an issue tracker page. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling. I am not behind a proxy and I've already set:
Use default gradle wrapper
Restarting Gradle sync stops at
Refreshing Gradle project
I can't find anything to fix this problem.
I am running Android Studio on Windows 8.1 with JRE 1.8.0

I Guess This Can Help You.....
https://gradle.org/install
// for manual installation
to get the gradle distribution visit
https;//gradle.org/release
STEPS
1 Dowmload the gradle
2 unzip the pack.
3 create a new folder in your C drive and name it gradle
4 place the unzipped pack into the folder you created
5 Now set the path for your gradle in Android Studio to the just created folder
6 Add the path of your gradle to the System Varaibles.
7 Computer, right click >Properties>Advance System Settings>Enviroment
Varaibles>System Varaibles.Path>Edit.
Hope its Helpful

I also faced the same problem. You have two ways to solve this.
First one is to connect to the Internet and download a new version of Android Studio and the required packages.
Note: You should have "proxies" and "offline work" options enabled.
The second way is to go to file > settings > build > gradle and do the following:
Uncheck the "offline work" option.
Use local gradle distribution and then set the path.
Note: When you have "no proxy" option checked with "offline work" then you have to provide path for every new project.

I had the same problem. so i followed this https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/userguide_single.html#installation
finally i got it !!
Android Stidio v 3.0.1

I have this issue and have tried reinstalling to no avail.
What I found was useful is to look in my home directory (on Ubuntu) and open the .gradle folder and open the matching sub folder and delete the lck file and then manually download the desired gradle version (url distributionUrl value) and place the downloaded file in the folder that had the lck file.
Have attributed this problem to using usb tethering for internet..

Android Studio 0.8.2 URI has an authority component

I am getting "Gradle project sync failed." when I start up Android Studio. When I try to clean the project, I get "Failed to complete Gradle execution Cause: URI has an authority component"
I've tried several things already and am still stuck. I moved my config files out of my user folders and put them in my root directory where I have Android Studio. (C:/Studio). I've also tried to invalidate caches but that still didn't help. I'm on a networked VDI so I'm not sure if that might have something to do with it. Below is the message I'm getting from Gradle sync. Any ideas what can be going wrong here?
Gradle Sync Message:
Error:Unable to start the daemon process.
This problem might be caused by incorrect configuration of the daemon.
For example, an unrecognized jvm option is used.

The only cause I've seen of this is if your home directory is on a network share (it has a Windows path of the form (\\UNC_PATH\... instead of something like C:\ for a local file). Gradle doesn't properly support that right now. There's a bug in Android Studio's bug database to track it:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=56444
and it references a bug in Gradleware's bug database:
https://issues.gradle.org/browse/GRADLE-2941
The Android Studio bug report lists this as a workaround:
I also faced same issue. Reason I figured out that may be when I
installed Android Studio with option -- Install to current User. This
step installed .gradle folder in the organization Network Path
[\{network}\users{USERID}.gradle]
Resolution step: [On Windows 7 Machine]
Copied .gradle folder from path on network [\{network}\users{USERID}.gradle] to [C:\Users{USERID}.gradle]
In Android Studio v-(Beta) 0.8.6 [File --> Settings] changed Gradle Settings
Global Gradle settings
Service directory path: C:/Users/{USERID}/.gradle
Gradle VM options: -Dhttp.proxyHost={dummyHost} -Dhttp.proxyPort={dummyPort} -Dhttp.proxyUser={dummyUser} -Dhttp.proxyPassword={dummyPassword}
I had also given Gradle VM options because it tried to download
Gradle-0.12+-all.jar before compiling.

if you don't have a strong internet connectivity make sure you select the offline mode from the console. Selecting offline mode could solve the issue.
