Two years has passed, now if you come across here, you may possibly encounterd error message like this:

No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix mips64el-linux-android

or

No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix mipsel-linux-android

Latest NDK removed support for mips abi, and earler version of android gradle plugin still check for the existance of mips toolchain. see here for more info.

Solution: Upgrade android gradle plugin to 3.1 or newer.

e.g. Add following in the project level gradle [28-Sept-2018]

 classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0"

Workaround: Create mipsel-linux-android folder structure to fool the tool. The easiest way would be to symbolic link to aarch64-linux-android-4.9.

# on Mac

cd  ~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains

ln -s aarch64-linux-android-4.9 mips64el-linux-android

ln -s arm-linux-androideabi-4.9 mipsel-linux-android

I fixed this Error by uninstalling the NDK in the SDK-Tools.
So, if you don't need the NDK, uninstall it.

I have faced the same problem while update Android studio from 2.0 to 2.1 in my Windows 8 machine.

I found a solution for that.Please use the following steps.

1. Download the android NDK for windows from https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/index.html.


2. Extract the same and copy the "toolchain" folder from the bundle.


3. Paste the folder under installed NDK folder under C:android-sdk-winndk-bundle.[Installed the path may vary based on your installation]


4. Restart android studio.

This is happening because Android studio won't gets full NDK update in the stable channel. If you are not using NDK for your project development you can simply remove the NDK folder from your SDK directory.

For Android studio 3.2.1+

Upgrade your Gradle Plugin

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

and see the Magic Error gone.

Happy Coding -:)

Error message: “No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: llvm” .

After fresh web installation of Android Studio with NDK, I imported an Android code sample that used NDK from GitHub and tried to compile it.

As a result had an Error:

No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: llvm

Solution:
for some reasons standard installation process on macOS had failed to install a complete set:

~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle had missed folder toolchains with all tools,

(it should be like this: ~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle/toolchains)

The solution was to download NDK separately, open it, copy folder toolchain and paste it to the folder:

~/Library/Android/sdk/ndk-bundle

After that it worked well for me.

Step-by-step:

1) Open the page with old NDK versions:

https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/older_releases

2) Agree the Terms:

3) Download the older version of NDK (for example 16b):

4) Open your toolchains directory.

5) Transfer files that you need from toolchains folder of downloaded zip-file to your toolchains folder:

6) Rebuild the Project:

UPD 30 Sep 2018:

I used Android NDK Revision r16b for fix this error in my own case. So I present the example with this version.

But it's better to use the Android NDK, Revision r17c (June 2018). It is the last one, supporting mips (reasonable reccomendation from Weekend's comment).

Without downloading, copying, or symlinking anything, I was able to "fix" the error by simply creating an empty directory where the older version of the Android Gradle plugin expects the removed mips toolchain:

mkdir -p $ANDROID_HOME/ndk-bundle/toolchains/mips64el-linux-android/prebuilt/linux-x86_64

Obviously, $ANDROID_HOME points to the root of the Android SDK installation here. If you are using MacOS, replace linux-x86_64 with darwin-x86_64 in the command above. On Windows use windows-x86_64.

I uninstalled the NDK since I didn't need it . Go to SDK manager on Android studio ( Tools -> Android -> SDK Manager ) . If NDK is installed . Just uncheck the box and click OK . The installed components will be deleted .

In my case, this error occured when creating a new Android Studio (Android studio 3.2.1) Java Project with

    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.0.0-beta6'

So I´ve downgraded to

       dependencies {

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

      }

Not the best solution stay at an older version, but maybe it´s just a temporary bug in the beta as the NDK path in local.properties is still the same, but the IDE doesn´t complain anymore

Android NDK 18.0* seems has an issue not creating all the files in folders after extraction. Due to it, your app compilation will fail which uses ndk builds.

Better is to use NDK 17.1* (https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/) etc version and you can extract or use the android studio extraction to ndk-bundle by default will work good.

Open Android Studio, Go to Tools then Android and then SDK, uncheck NDK If you do not need this, and restart android studio.

In your project level Gradle file increase the dependencies
classpath version low to high like

dependencies {

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0'

    }

to change like

dependencies {

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

    }

Find your own local android-SDK, if you download the relevant SDK of ndk, there will be a folder called "ndk-bundle"

There is a folder called "toolchains" inside.

We noticed that there are no mips64el related files inside.

The solution is as follows:

Click here to download the NDK package separately through the browser.
After unzipping, open the "toolchains" folder, compare it with the android-sdk->ndk-bundle->toolchains folder, find the missing folder, copy the past
3. Recompile, the problem is solved.
Hope it helps you mate

I've had a similar problem, but I wanted to use NDK version r9d due to project requirements.

In local.properties the path was set to ndk.dir=C:\Android\ndk\android-ndk-r9d but that lead to the problem:

No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: [toolchain-name]

The solution was to:

1. Install the newest NDK using sdk manager


2. Copy the missing toolchain [toolchain-name] from the new ndk to the old. In my case from sdkndk-bundletoolchains to ndkandroid-ndk-r9dtoolchains
   


3. Repeat the process till all the required toolchains are there

It looks to me that the copied toolchains are not used, but for some reason it is needed to for them be there.

I solved this question by unInstalled ndk, becasuse I dont't need it

Here is the fix.

When compiling a project in android studio, I occasionally encounter:

Error: No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with
prefix: arm-linux-androideabi/llvm

This may be caused by updating related components. The solution is to Android studio ( Tools -> Android -> SDK Manager ) .
Select the ndk item and delete it. If the program needs it, you can re-install it. This will ensure that the folder location is correct and there will be no such problem.

Solved it by adding google() dependency into both repositories in build.gradle(Project: ProjectName). then sync your project

buildscript {

    repositories {

        google()

        jcenter()

    }

    dependencies {

        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.2'



        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong

        // in the individual module build.gradle files

    }

}



allprojects {

    repositories {

        google()

        jcenter()

    }

}

For me I think there might be some issue in installing android NDK from android studio. I was able to resolve this in following manner

Downloaded android ndk from

https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/index.html

and placed inside ndk-bundle (where your android sdk is installed ). For more info check this screens.

https://app.box.com/s/dfi4h9k7v4h0tmbu3z9qnqx3d12fdejn

If you are using Ionic 3 Remove ndk from android studio sdk tools.

[https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorflow/examples/android][1]

For people trying out this example and facing issues with latest NDK. Can follow this solution.
In build.gradle
change this

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.1'

To

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.2'

The reason is mips are deprecated in the latest ndk versions, Gradle version 3.1.2 will not have a compulsion for mips. It assumes the presence for these missing folders.

Facing same issue.

I got success following ways.

Open your buldle.gradle file and upgrade the versions for following both classpath

classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.2.0'

Then Sync and after get one dilaog for update Gradle version as well then click that link and wait for download all required updates(Hope internet available). After taking long time you got Success.

If you don't use the NDK, unset the environment variable ANDROID_NDK_HOME.

Steps I have followed to fix the issue as follows,

Analyze -> Code Cleanup

File -> Project Structures -> Select project from the list and update the gradle version to latest.

Build -> Clean Project

Build -> Make Project

Now the issue related to the build may get reported like using compile instead of implementation etc.

Please fix those and hopefully it should fix the issue.

I fixed the issue by reinstalling the NDK.

I have same error while adding NDK. I tried much and later I find below solution which works perfectly for me.

if you want to add NDK in your project then follow below step.
1. If you installed NDK using SDK Manager then uninstall first. (untick from SDK tools and apply)
2. Download manually NDK from its official site. (any version) if project old then prefer version 17.
3. Extract that file.
4. Go to your project structure > NDK path > add Extracted file path here.
5. Build Project. and its work.

just update classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:X.X.X'
in Project Build.Gradle and replace X to the latest version do you have

I faced same issue and I resolved this by

changing gradle version of project-label .gradle file to Latest

 classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

and add these checks on app label .gradle file

packagingOptions{

    doNotStrip '*/mips/*.so'

    doNotStrip '*/mips64/*.so'

}

Hope This will help.

I navigated to local.properties, and in there the

ndk.dir=/yo/path/for/NDK

line needs to be updated to where your ndk lies.

I was using Crystax NDK, and didn't realize the original Android NDK was still in use.

After three days I figured it out:

The problem can be solved by downloading an older version of the NDK (14b) and going to Android Studio to File | Project Structure and selecting it.

Upgrade your Gradle Plugin

1. 
   

   com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4
   Upgrade gradle wraperpropeties
