Cant find android SDK root folder when first trying to build for android

Did you follow the instructions at http://docs.unity3d.com/$$anonymous$$anual/android-sdksetup.html ?

For Windows, it normally uses : C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Android\sdk (replace UserName as corresponds, in my case AppData is also a hidden folder)

If by any chance you are using Android Studio > v1, Go to 1. Configure 2.Project Defaults 3.Project Structure, there you will see Android SDK and JDK location

Then in Unity go to 1.Edit 2.Preferences 3.External Tools 4.Android SDK Location and add what you just saw on Android Studio as the SDK location, if you don't use Android Studio or Eclipse (steps should be something similar) you can try in Unity C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Android\sdk, C:\Android\sdk, or C:\Users\UserName\Android\android-sdk

Hope that helps.

@Jorge$$anonymous$$chetes

You're answer seemed to help the OP. I just accidentally published his converted comment under the wrong post. It is now under his question and I cannot move it to the right location anymore.

I will THAN$$anonymous$$ YOU every time when I'll build an android game.

If by any chance you are using Android Studio > v1, Open Up Android Studio, and then Go to 1. Configure 2.Project Defaults 3.Project Structure

  1. Download Android Development Build files form Android Website. link text

  2. Once downloaded open the folder and install the versions you needed.

  3. Make sure you place the folder in desktop [Sometimes it will not work if you place in other folders or drives]

  4. When you build the game, Unity asks for the android location, Just navigate the desktop folder [Android folder]

  5. Build the game.

Hope this helps.

If you still can't find the folder, it may be that the folder is hidden. In that case you will need to follow these steps (I'm using Windows): 1.Click on folders 2.Next to File, click: View 3.Click: Options 4.Click: Change Folder and Search Options 5.Click: View (next to General) 6.Click: Show Hidden Files, Folders and Drives

Then you should be able to find it.

@Jess_ I still can't yet create the path to finally downloading the VR app to my phone. I literally have the same format as it is above, C:\Users\timwillie73\AppData\Local\Android\sdk , with it being copied and pasted directly into Unity from Android Studio.

Thanks, $$anonymous$$thy Williams
