flipper: Flipper Doctor complains Android SDK is not installed

I fixed the error by going to my local.properties file in VS Code coping the sdk.dir which mine is /Users/[MYUSER]/Library/Android/sdk then I went in Filpper -> File -> Preferences and changed the Android SDK Location See image…

Then I clicked the Apply and Restart Button

in your terminal type echo $ANDROID_HOME that will give you the path to the Android SDK.

Copy that path and paste it in Flipper -> File -> Preferences -> Android SDK Location.

Apply and restart and you should be done.

@nikoant I’m facing the same issue, flipper is weirdly saying that android_home is /opt/android_sdk and doesn’t exit … which it is not true at all

everything regarding android is working fine for me, I’m not sure what the issue is here, could u please let me know what u think of this ?

thanks.

I have this issue as well despite correct env info and my JAVA_HOME set to jdk 8

Env info is

Android SDK:
      API Levels: 25, 28, 29
      Build Tools: 25.0.2, 28.0.3, 29.0.0, 29.0.2
      System Images: android-29 | Google APIs Intel x86 Atom
      Android NDK: 21.0.5935234

It would be tremendously helpful if the doctor displayed some explanation as to why it believes it’s failed. The current screen gives no actionable information to the developer.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! As you surmised, the tool didn’t detect my Android SDK in with either command.

After looking at the source for envinfo, I realized the root cause was this issue.

The short-term fix for me is downgrading the version of Java I use by default, until Google finally updates their build tools for a current version of Java.

In your terminal, run echo $ANDROID_HOME, copy the path over to Flipper settings

On Mac OS I put ~/Library/Android/sdk into flippers settings first, turns out, flipper wants an absolute path like /Users/<username>/Library/Android/sdk

in your terminal type echo $ANDROID_HOME that will give you the path to the Android SDK.

Copy that path and paste it in Flipper -> File -> Preferences -> Android SDK Location.

Apply and restart and you should be done.

For new Flipper (Mac version). Its under cog icon > settings

This solution works for me. Thanks!

@a-eid on Mac, console apps and gui apps do not necessarily share the same environment. Try exporting your console env:

launchctl setenv JAVA_HOME $JAVA_HOME

Ok I’m not sure I understand. The README says it requires yarn 1.5+, yet that doesn’t exist according to yarn’s website

This remains broken in 0.30.2

Interesting, thanks for reporting.

What do you get if you run this from the command line? npx envinfo

and also this: ANDROID_HOME=/Applications/Dev/android-sdk npx envinfo
