enter image description hereI encountered "Gradle project sync failed" on Android Studio 4.2 and some of the class members are mostly red. I have done some troubleshooting as below.

  1. File->Sync Project with Gradle Files
  2. File-> invalidates caches/restart
  3. Restart Android Studio
  4. Clean and Rebuild
  5. Try deleting .gradle

However, the problem still persists. What went wrong actually?

I have just experienced this issue seemingly out of thin air, and found the cause:

I updated the google play services ads module to: api 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.1.0'

This causes the gradle sync to fail. Looking into the IDEA log I found the line com.android.tools.idea.gradle.project.sync.idea.issues.SdkPlatformNotFoundException: Module: 'my-module' platform 'android-28' not found.

So I updated my-module to use the targetSdkVersion 29 and the build works again.

I had faced the same problem.

Solution:

If your Android Studio version is 4.2.2 and your app contains more than one modules then make sure to keep the targetSdkVersion and compileSdkVersion as same for all your build.gradle files(including your modules).

Please Downgrade Studio Version to 4.1.3

Currently, 4.2.* versions are having the significant number of issues.

You maybe need to upgrade or downgrade your "targetSdkVersion" i experienced the same issue and the solution was upgrading my "targetSdkVersion"
