I keep getting the following build exception when I run
cordova run android --verbose
You can try out the following to resolve the issue,
On Windows, Change File -> Settings -> Builds,Execution,Deployment -> Build Tools -> Gradle -> Gradle home path
On Mac OS, Change Android Studio -> Preferences -> Builds,Execution,Deployment -> Build Tools -> Gradle -> Gradle home path
Else use default gradle wrapper and edit Project\gradle\wrapper\gradle-wrapper.properties file's distributionUrl like this:
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.10-all.zip
