Hello, I'm a newbie on ROS and ROSJava and I'm trying write an app which communicates with ROS on a PC. The PC has ROS Hydro installed. I've followed the steps so now I have rosjava_core and android_core. And I was trying to import the tutorials from android_core in Android Studio to test the waters and start playing around but I get a message about unsupported version of Gradle (which is weird because it's using the one that came with AS). I have v1.8 of Gradle. When I am not getting that problem I get "Could not find any version that matches org.ros.rosjava_bootstrap:gradle_plugins:[0.1,0.2).Required by:android_core:unspecified" I've followed the tutorials as closely as possible but I can't seem to find a solution. Any help would be very appreciated.

After a lot of messing around and your help I managed to solve my problems. a) I was sourcing the wrong setup.bash file so I got the "Could not find..." problem. b) The Gradle problem seemingly solved itself. Thanks a lot.

For the Gradle version, try to change the Gradle version number in the wrapper folder of android_core (android_core/gradle/wrapper/gradle....properties).
For the rojava_bootstrap... error check this post //answers.ros.org/question/100271/importing-android_core-failed/

This answer help me. Thanks Dtc. What exactly I did: 1. I installed Gradle 1.9 (not 1.10!) 2. Cloned android_core 3. cd .../android_core/android_tutorial_camera 4. catkin_make 5. source devel/setup.bash 6. .../android-studio/bin/studio.sh 7. Then selected "Import project" and android_code directory

I've got the same error in Ubuntu 12.04, ROS Hydro and Gradle 1.10. So I tried to change "android_core/gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties". And I changed distributionUrl parameter from "gradle-1.9-bin.zip" to "gradle-1.10-bin.zip". But it didn't help.

Thanks Dtc. It did help! My problem was in Gradle 1.10. I found the answer on stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20812703/cant-find-org-gradle-api-artifacts-result-resolvedmoduleversionresult-when-appl. After I downgrade gradle from 1.10 to 1.9 I could finally build android_core.
