Andorid build appears to be stuck?

If your build seems to be stuck at steps like "Lint and build APK" or downloading Android SDK components, the issue might be that the --quiet flag is hiding the build output, making it appear as if nothing is happening.

Solution: Remove the --quiet flag from your build arguments to see the actual build progress and any error messages.

Don't cancel builds prematurely

If you see memory warnings like "The Daemon will expire after the build after running out of JVM heap space," don't manually stop the build. These are warnings, not fatal errors. The build will continue to progress and will stop automatically if it actually hits a memory exception.

Let the build complete naturally to ensure caching works properly and to see if the memory optimizations resolve the issue.
