I am working on three different phonegap projects, I was able to build to android platform until I did the biggest thing I regret for it "UPDATE"
Previously I was able to use command phonegap build android or cordova build android, and the build was successful with no errors
But after update I found the first problem :
Error: Android SDK not found. Make sure that it is installed. If it is not at the default location, set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable.
Although, Android_home was set before, but I ensured it again. then I tried to build but failed for same error. Later I found solution on this thread Installing-Android-SDK-Tools
I downloaded tools_r25.2.3-windows.zip and extracted contents to sdk folder, then problem (ANDROID_HOME not found) Solved!!
After that I tried to phonegap build android, then I got this error
Error: Error code 1 for command: cmd with args: /s,/c,"D:\myProject\platforms\android\gradlew cdvBuildDebug -b D:\myProject\platforms\android\build.gradle -Dorg.gradle.daemon=true -Pandroid.useDeprecatedNdk=true"
I got mad, even I tried to create new project phonegap create myApp and moved content of www folder and config.xml, then phonegap build android, but no luck Failed again for same reason mentioned above
