I resolved it by myself. Build Tool SDK 26.0.2 does not have `android update` command any longer. I changed to android-sdk-update@1.0.4 and it is working now. ---

Indeed the Android SDK did change - related changelog and suggested solutions > [@Weekly Virtual Machine / Stack updates - 2017.07.15](http://discuss.bitrise.io/t/weekly-virtual-machine-stack-updates-2017-07-15/2271/4): > > Android SDK update note: the previous android sdk update ... command is no longer available in the latest Android SDK. If you install packages manually with android sdk update please change them to sdkmanager PACKAGE. E.g. instead of: echo y | android update sdk --no-ui --all --filter build-tools-24.0.1 | grep 'package installed' use: sdkmanager "build-tools;24.0.1" That said, if you can, please use the the [Install Missing Android Tools](http://discuss.bitrise.io/t/android-automatic-dependency-installer-e-g-build-tools-step-install-missing-android-tools/316) step instead, that should be able to detect and insta… ---

Looks like we experienced the same issue as @tomoima525. Also noticed that the “Update Android Extra packages” step (which is essentially just a script) is unavailable. The above link helped us with our solution: 1. Add the “Install missing Android tools” step 2. Modify the script to use the [sdkmanager](https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/sdkmanager.html) command line tool instead of the “android update sdk” tool Ex. sdkmanager “extras;google;google\_play\_services” “extras;google;m2repository” ---

Thanks for sharing @denesh! Just a note: if you have the **Install missing Android tools** step you don’t need the Script step, the step should be able to install those packages automatically, if required.
