可能项目里面只有根目录下面有 build.gradle 文件，导致

Plugin with id 'com.android.application' not found.

需要在 build.gradle 文件下面添加

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

// 添加在第1行下面
buildscript{
    repositories{
        jcenter()
        google()
    }

    dependencies{
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.1'
    }
}
...

最后可以使用

$ gradle installDebug

安装运行。
