Android Build fails when the latest Android SDK Tools 25.3.1 version is used
How to reproduce:
1. Update Android SDK Tools to 25.3.1
- In Mac open Android Studio -> Check for updates and update Android Studio version (might be not necessary)
- In Android Studio -> Preferences -> Appearance & Behavior -> System Settings -> Android SDK -> SDK Tools
2. Create a new Unity project
3. Build and run on Android device
Result: Build fails "CommandInvokationFailure: Unable to list target platforms. Please make sure the android sdk path is correct. See the Console for more details. ..."
Reproducible: 5.5.2p2, 5.6.0b11, 2017.1.0a3
Note: I haven't been able to reproduce this issue on Windows machine. As after update via Android Studio, SDK Manager still doesn't see SDK Tools 25.3.1 version and uses 25.2.5
Workaround for the customers.
1) just open https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html
2) scroll down to the bottom of that page
3) go to downloads
4) scroll down to the bottom of that page
5) find Windows "tools_r25.2.3-windows.zip" download and unzip it
5) find MacOSX "tools_r25.2.3-macosx.zip" download and unzip it.
6) In the SDK path replace the tools folder.
FIXED:
Unity versions: 5.4.5p2, 5.5.3p3, 5.6.0p3, 2017.1.0b3
SDK Tools have to be updated to 26.x.x

Not fixed in 2017.1.1f1 on Windows either. I just imported my project from 5.5.2f1 where everything worked fine and I cannot build the app. Initially I got an error about merging manifests and as soon as I resolved it, by adding tools:replace="icon, label" on one of them, I get an error about not being able to sign in application. Apparently there is something wrong with the keystore. I could try replacing the keystore but this is not a solution that I would like to go with (still would not resolve the problem for apps that are already published). Nothing fixes the issue. I have tried any solution found so far (updated Android Sdk and build tools, I actually removed Android Studio and Android Sdk and downloaded and installed them again, replaced tools inside Android Sdk with the ones provided for Windows by Google, switched to Gradle build, tried using previous versions of build tools and API levels). Any suggestions?

Yes...still in 5.6.3p2. JDK 8 or 9, no difference. Going backwards fixed it, but yes, please fix this Unity!

I can't believe this is still marked as fixed and yet the above work around is the only "Fix" that actually works. . . COME ON UNITY... FIGURE THIS OUT FOR REAL.

This is still an issue in 2017.1.1f1.
I'm trying to build the Oculus Unity Utilities and the only way that I've been able to build an apk was to use the tools_r25.2.3-windows.zip file.

Yes, definitely still present in the latest Unity, just updated to 2017.1.0f3 and had the same issue. Only difference my error message when trying to build just an empty project (with android a VR supported) is "Unable to merge android manifests". The same workaround fixed it. The same workaround also fixed an unwanted READ_PHONE_STATE permission automatically added with no reason. replacing the android tool folder now removed this otherwise unremovable permission that warned user that my app "wants to make phone calls" or something silly like that.

I believe I have found a resolution to this for the mean time. Look through your {Project-Dir}/Temp/StagingArea/android-libraries and see if any of the plugins contain an AndroidManifest.xml with an <application> tag containing conflicting attributes. The problem seems to lie in the {Assets}/Plugins/UnityPurchasing/Bin/Android, the plugins contain application attributes that'll conflict with the master AndroidManifest. At the moment, I'm able to build without issue after deleting the {Assets}/Plugins/UnityPurchasing/Bin/Android folder. But, this creates another issue with not having IAP working with google play. Hope this gets resolved soon.
