android - Error:The SDK Build Tools revision (23.0.3) is too low for project ':app'. Minimum required is 25.0.0

Question

The title is a duplicate but my question is different.

The same project works fine and is allowed to be built on

buildToolsVersion 23.0.3

on my colleague's system. As far as I know only the android studio version is different. Is it possible that if I hadn't upgraded my android studio to "2.3.Beta 2" I could still build with 23.0.3?

You have to change top-level build.gradle from

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
//        classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

to:

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
//        classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}
