In this Android Tutorial, we shall see how to fix Android Gradle Error Minimum supported Gradle version is 4.0-rc-1. Current version is 4.0-milestone-1.

The process should be same, despite the current and minimum supported versions mentioned in the Gradle Error.

gradle-wrapper.properties  under Gradle Scripts is the file that has to be modified.

As the error says that Current version is 4.0-milestone-1, this is the version that is present in the gradle-wrapper.properties file. The contents of the file would be as shown in the following.
