I had Android Studio 2.3.3 for a while and never had to use it until now. So I installed some Android plugins on it, like JForm designer, WiFi ADB plugins and the rest to get started but it keeps telling me that Android Support (plugin) is not available. Please what can I do about it? Do I need to install any other plugins first, like JUnit? Or if I download the latest version of Android Studio, will it integrate Android support and tools for Android development?
I can send screenshots if they will be of relevance. Thanks in advance.
Please check this answer:
In android studio,cannot load 2 facets-unknown facet type:android and android-gradle
If you couldn't find the Android Support plugin, checked for Android APK Support.

This same thing happened to me, when i was into android. Go to android sdk manager and update whatever it says, and you will good to go.
Even android studio is also trying to do the same thing. but it doesn't show you the progress.
I am unable to open certain activity when starting a new android poroject. I have tried fixing the problem by installing the correct "Android Support Library" in the SDK Manager but the problem remains unsolved! Even the "Install/Upgrade" and "check again" functions in the Install Dependencies Screen do not work! Btw I am using eclipse on a mac.
Any thoughts?
Android Studio now is official IDE for android development provided by Google. The Android plugin for Eclipse doesn't have support anymore. Eclipse is setting up Andmore project: https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.andmore to try to continue work on allowing Eclipse to build Android apss. But you should use Android Studio instead.
Use proxy:
windows-->preferences-->general-->network connections
Android SDK Manager:
Tools-->options-->enter your proxy
I have an Android project in Eclipse that has targeted Android 2.2 for many years but now I want to use some newer features that are only available in later versions of Android, e.g., 4.xx
There is a Stack Overflow question on how to change the build target...
How to change target build on Android project?
. . but my selection in the box on the right that they mention only goes to 3.2. How do I increase my options to newer versions on Android?
Android Studio - the now official IDE for Android development has a handy import feature for making Eclipse projects work.
As CommonsWare above mentioned, it might behoove yourself to make the switch.
It recently hit its 2.1.1 stable release: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Install Higher version packages , Go to Android SDK Manager-> Select Version-> Install. Keep in mind Eclipse support has been ended, Use Android Studio.

I am learning about android.
I have downloaded Eclipse and Adt .
Now I have to download Android sdk. Should I download SDK as standalone tool or with Android Studio.
What is SDK and what all does it include?
Can I use both Eclipse and Android Studio with Sdk
Is better to use just Android Studio, this is the official Android Development IDE.
https://developer.android.com/intl/pt-br/sdk/index.html
Android Studio help you to download Android SDKs.
What is android sdk ? What does it include ?
It stands for Software development kit, and as the name suggests , it contains the platform (android version specific libraries to help you make apps for android platforms).
It contains different tools to help you install apps (adb tool), collect statistics and view information about the apps running in your devices etc.
Download sdk here
Can I use both Eclipse and Android Studio with Sdk ?
Yes you can , just have to point these ide's to the sdk's absolute path.
Should I download SDK as standalone tool or with Android Studio ?
You can do it either way, the former would require you to give its path to the ide you will be using, either Android Studio or eclipse.
Note
Android studio is the best and developer's guide by google recommends the same as well.
Some features of android studio
The SDK means Software Development Kit and is there for building android apps.
The sdk contains all the libraries you need to run your code on an android device.
Therefore eclipse and android studio can use the same sdk.
I really recommens using androi studio tho.
It is way better for developing android apps and comes with the sdk.
Eclipse was used some time ago but now android studio is the official ide for android, and way more powerful than eclipse.
Android SDK is a software development kit that is used to create Android applications.
You can download Android SDK as standalone and use it with eclipse to develop your android Apps.So you do not need to download Android Studio to develop Android Apps although it is recommended for starters.
You can download Android sdk only from here Or here
Also, The final step before you develop your android applications is to make sure that your android-sdk-tools,android-sdk-platform-tools,support-tools, and your API s are up to date.Check out your SDK Manager "Don't forget to run as administrator".
I am migrating to android Studio from eclipseADT, Can I use the same android sdk's from eclipse?
I used the following links to migrate:
Exporting from eclipse.
Importing to Android studio.
You could also look over this link: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/migrate.html
And yes of course you can use the same android SDK.
SDK stands for Software Development Kit and has nothing to do with the different IDEs(Eclipse, Android Studio) really. The IDE will use the SDK of course but the SDK is unaware of which IDE is using it. You should have no problems with using the same SDK, you just have to set some paths in Android studio.
