NDK Resolution Outcome: Project settings: Gradle model version=5.4.1, NDK version is UNKNOWN

Question

My gradle sync always fails with this message on the stable android studio 3.5

This has been happening since the preview releases of versions of 3.5

NDK Resolution Outcome: Project settings: Gradle model version=5.4.1, NDK version is UNKNOWN

The same project works on a parallel android studio. Sometimes I need to work on two instances in parallel, but I'm blocked on this error which mysteriously disappears if I quit Android Studio and restart the project. This happens on lucky days and on other days I am unable to start the project with the same error showing up repeatedly. What I mean by quit is simply exiting Android Studio and restarting it and opening my project using Import project (Gradle, Eclipse, etc.) instead of Open existing Android Studio project.

Edit 1: Unlike the duplicate NDK Resolution Outcome: Project settings: Gradle model version=5.4.1, NDK version is UNKNOWN error, the accepted answer is not the solution or cause to my problem. Accepted answer is an easy way to work around it, but is only a temporary fix.

Edit 2: According to https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/140403764#comment14, this issue will be fixed in android 3.6 beta 1

The official Android Studio release is 3.4.2 as of today, does this stable version also have the same issue? — shizhen, Jul 26 '19 at 07:32
I need to use Android Studio 3.5 only as I am using some features that only 3.5 supports. — Nishita, Jul 26 '19 at 09:58
Did you find a solution @Nishita ? It's happening to me after I've installed Android Studio 3.5 on my computer, after reinstalling Ubuntu. — xarlymg89, Sep 19 '19 at 18:40

Go to your build.gardle(Project) and then change the classpath of gardle to 3.5.0 after Sync project android studio will use gradle-5.4.1

dependencies {        
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.0'
    ...

check your version code in build.gradle app module. check whether you have a point in the version code i.e for example if you have 5.0 then change it to just 5 instead.

I think this answer will work for everyone or not and I can't find root cause why this happening So If anyone find root cause it then please share. :D

But in my case I had migrate project to AndroidX and it works.

That must've been a coincidence, my project was migrated to androidX way before this issue started to come up. – Nishita Sep 06 '19 at 06:31
yes agreed that why I told that It will not work for everyone. – Rujul Gandhi Sep 06 '19 at 06:46

Open project using Import project (Gradle, Eclipse, etc.) instead of Open existing Android Studio project :)

Works at times, doesn't work other times. – Nishita Sep 08 '19 at 05:07
@Nishita kindly check your ndk path and sync project. i – Tushar Lathiya Sep 09 '19 at 06:02
My project does not require/use an ndk. – Nishita Sep 16 '19 at 06:26
