Answer 1

Please update the order of building your project through $ cordova build android

Open {project-root-folder}/platforms/android/build.gradle

Existing Code:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
    }
}

Code Updated as below:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://maven.google.com"
        }
        jcenter()
    }
}

Answer 2

Just go to the URL, you can see nothing is found there.

Make sure you have a section like this in your gradle files

repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()
}

Answer 3

remove all gradle cache files ( ~/.gradle/ ) ,try again!
