I am trying to use the support libraries of version 25.2.0 so I will be able to use the CameraKit library.

I have got the newest build tools downloaded:

and the support repository: enter image description here

my gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 25
    buildToolsVersion '25.0.2'
    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.sample.myapp"
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 25
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.1"
        testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}
repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://jitpack.io"
    }
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
        exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'
    })
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'

    // Google libraries
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.2.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:25.2.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:25.2.0'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-vision:10.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.volley:volley:1.0.0'

    // Third party libraries
    compile 'com.flurgle:camerakit:0.9.17'

    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:25.2.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:25.2.0'
}

Problem: For each support-library I get the issue:

Failed to resolve com.android.support:cardview-v7:25.2.0

If I try to click on Install repository and sync project nothing happens.

I have followed that gradle file as an example. Were could be my mistake?

Previously the Android Support Library dependencies were downloaded from Android SDK Manager.

Now all the new versions are available from Google's Maven repository. In future all android libraries will be distributed through maven.google.com

So, by adding the below code to the repositories will build the project.

repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://maven.google.com"
    }
}
