Android SDK Manager doesn't work: Download interrupted: "Tag mismatch"

android, sdk

Solution

For me it was all about the Internet connection. Running wifi over 5Ghz/ac was too fast(!?) and the "tag mismatch"-problem was gone when connected through 2.4Ghz.

The same problem and solution applied when installing some new gradle dependencies in Android Studio.

Problem

I'm getting started on android developing. I've "played" a little bit with eclipse and now I'm trying some online examples dealing with streaming. The thing is it seems I don't have the packages installed as, while debugging, I got the following error message: `Source not found`. So, I tried to get the packages going to the SDK manager, selecting them and clicking `Install`. And my problem is the following: I can't install them and don't know why.
