Hi, I am also facing same problem. It seems, that one need signature key as a part of signing process of an android app and as a part of deployment to app store. Those are developer specific. I have tried to overcome somehow this issue, but without success now.

Yes, ./gradlew build builds release APK and requires a keystore file with signing information configured in local.properties file. For app testing and debugging, you could use ./gradlew assembleDebug to compile debug APK file that not requires signing. Make sure you have updated sources, because I just pushed a small fix that resolves a debug APK build problem when release keystore file is not configured.
