looks like google() and jcenter() are not working as expected.

I just migrated from android studio 2.3.3 to 4.0.1 .

what is my problem???? tell me if you need more information .

thank you for your answer :)

Answer 1

Try to put the google() as the first one in the repositories list in the gradle file to solve this issue.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.1'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
    }
}
