Android Studio Doesn't Import microG Emulator
Describe the bug I'm using the version of Android Studio below:
Android Studio Dolphin 2021.3.1 Patch 1 Build #AI-213.7172.25.2113.9123335
When I add the SDK URL as described in the WikiPage (https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Development-Tools), the repository adds, but is not listed after closing and reopening the SDK Manager to check for updates.
Troubleshooting I wanted to see if Android Studio would pick up a local XML file using the file:/// protocol, so I compared differences between Google's official repository XML files and the microG repository XML files. The only difference so far was that XML header tag at the top of the Google official XML, so I added it into a local copy of the microG repository, but that didn't work:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
Make sure to check Show package details in the bottom right of that dialog. Then expand the Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) or Android 10.0 (Q) entry, which should show a microG Intel x86 Atom_64 System Image at the very bottom of each such section.
Hi there, I am seeing a similar issue. Android Studio itself cannot pull the emulator image repo manifest file from your website any longer. Here is the error log:

I'm running into the same issue. Looks like both of the packages in the XML file are now gone/404. Are there any Android Virtual Device images with microG available?
