Answer 1

First, try updating the ndk version https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/

If that's not working then you can try the following:

• Create a folder

  Go to the Sdk\ndk-bundle\toolchains folder (in my case its C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\ndk-bundle\toolchains; you can find yours under File->project structure->SDK location in you android studio) and create a folder with the name that's shown as missing in the error for eg: if the error is

  Gradle sync failed: No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: mipsel-linux-android

  Then create a folder with name mipsel-linux-android

• Include content Go to the Sdk\ndk-bundle\toolchains folder again and open any folder that's already in it. For example:Sdk\ndk-bundle\toolchains\aarch64-linux-android-4.9 (in mycase C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\ndk-bundle\toolchains\aarch64-linux-android-4.9) copy the prebuilt folder in it to the folder we created in the last step

• Run the project again and it will work

Hope it helps!!
