When I try to run
Cordova platform add android
Or
Ionic platform add android
Or the Phonegap counterpart, the message "Creating android project" takes literally forever, i.e the command doesn't to anything.
I'm on Windows 8 x64 and have the Java JDK 1.8 + the Android SDK installed & updated.
I'm totally lost here since I don't get any error message whatsoever and it happens with all three platforms.
The issues was most likely caused by a mixup of two Android SDK installations, one done by hand, one from the new Android Studio Beta. After removing one of these & fixing my environment variables, everything worked fine.
