If you don't want all the weight of the full Studio install you can install just the build tools (100mb vs. 1gb). Unfortunately the SDK manager GUI is no longer included with the build tools. The old GUI only lets you install APIs up to API 29. LC 9.6.5 requires API 30. This seems like Google's push to get users to download and install the full studio where the GUI now exists. LC(and some other like dev tools) don't use or need the full studio. Five simple steps:
This is for Windows but it should be relatively the same for other platforms. 1) Download the "Command line tools only" from https://developer.android.com/studio#downloads 2) Unzip into some folder. 3) Open up a command prompt and navigate to the "bin" folder 4) Execute this command. NOTE fill in "somePath" to the location where the "bin" folder is. (one level up from the folder you navigated to in step 3) sdkmanager --sdk_root=somePath "platform-tools" "platforms;android-30" "build-tools;30.0.3" 5) Point the LC mobile prefs to the somePath folder Done. Now build away... Note: the command sdkmanager --sdk_root=somePath --list Will list all available packages. When LC requires an newer SDK down the road you will find it in this list.
