SDK Manager is greyed out

Question

Searched for other answers but didn\'t find an exact answer.

I just installed Android Studio and followed exactly the directions that are displayed here: https://dev

Answer 1

As far as I know the current versions of Android Studio have been released without SDK included by default. You can download it here http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r23.0.2-linux.tgz, and install in a folder different from your AS installation since it's important now.
AS usually asks you for a path to SDK location if it cannot find it.
Hope this helps.

Answer 2

I had the same issue. My setup is behind a proxy. So the studio init was failing. So i added disable.android.first.run=true this line in idea.properties in android-studio/bin It worked and studio was launched, but then i saw that SDK Manager is grayed out.

My Problem was fixed when i removed the disable.android.first.run=true line and started the studio again.

Please also keep in mind that i had to add the below lines for proxy in

studio64.vmoptions and studio.vmoptions
-Dhttps.proxyPort=port
-Dhttps.proxyHost=host
-Dhttps.proxyUser=username
-Dhttps.proxyPassword=password

Hope this helps
