When I sign my Android app it gives this error:

Execution failed for task ':app:lintVitalRelease'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:lintClassPath'.
   > Could not find lint-gradle-27.1.0.jar (com.android.tools.lint:lint-gradle:27.1.0).

Possible solution:
 - Declare repository providing the artifact, see the documentation at https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/declaring_repositories.html

And when I add this to my app:

lintOptions {
    quiet true
    // Whether lint should set the exit code of the process if errors are found
    abortOnError false
    // Returns whether lint will only check for errors (ignoring warnings)
    ignoreWarnings true
    // Returns whether lint should check for fatal errors during release builds. Default is true.
    // If issues with severity "fatal" are found, the release build is aborted.
    checkReleaseBuilds false
}

then there is no error, but APK won't install on my phone.

I had exactly your problem:

  • Exit Android Studio
  • Delete gradle caches folder located C:\Users\{USER}\.gradle\caches
  • Run Android Studio and rebuild

I had this problem too ! I just deleted these files :

project_folder/.gradle
project_folder/.idea
project_folder/.gradle
project_folder/build
project_folder/app/build
project_folder/app/release
C:\\users\Your_Name\.gradle\caches

Then open Android Studio & execute again .
