I've cloned a repository into my computer using Android Studio 3.1.3, this project used Gradle 4.1 so the IDE prompted to update it to 4.4 as the minimum version supported for this (at least following the IDE message) is 4.4.
When I update the distributionUrl gradle version from 4.1 to 4.4 it now says this:
Failed to resolve: com
and when I press in 'Open File' it indicates the error is in this line:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
I already made the google() repository go before jcenter() and still the error persists. Did google changed how to use the android plugin in gradle?
