I have the eclipse setup for Android Development
and i need to test the android app using eclipse with old setup.
I need to test the app for API level 28. I don't have the SDK platform
and system image
I get the sdk platform and system image here .
https://androidsdkmanager.azurewebsites.net/AndroidSystemImages
https://androidsdkmanager.azurewebsites.net/SDKPlatform
I put all the file in the SDK folder
I try to create new device with API level 28
but i cant create.
I don't know how to install new emulator compatible to the API level 28 .
I don't have experiences in eclipse environment .
My goal is to test the app using emulator with api28
I try to connect the it using the USB actual devices but it cant recognise by eclipse but the older phone work in the USB so I can test the app .
So my question here how to install manual the emulator with API 28
to test the app and debug it . is there step by step how to install new API in SDK to the eclipse and install new emulator
I try the to make apk file and install in the latest android if I do this
I can't get the error of the app so I need the emulator to debug the android app
So my Goal here Debug my app in the eclipse with my current setup .
debug the app with API 28 .
You'll need to extract those downloaded files into their appropriate directories.
first look for Android SDk install location.
in my case its
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
<DIR> build-tools //build-tools are extracted here
<DIR> patcher //patcher are extracted here
<DIR> platform-tools //platform-tools are extracted here
<DIR> system-images //system-images are extracted here
<DIR> platforms //platforms are extracted here
<DIR> sources //sources are extracted here
<DIR> tools //sdk-tools are extracted here
How to create an AVD in Eclipse
Assuming your Android Eclipse work environment is set up properly, creating a new Android Virtual Device (AVD) is simple. Just follow these steps.
In Eclipse, click the Window menu, then click Android SDK and AVD
Manager.
On the Android SDK and AVD Manager dialog that pops up, you'll see a list of any Android AVDs you have already created:
Just click the "New..." button here to start creating a new AVD.
3) On the "Create new Android Virtual Device" dialog, just choose the options you want for your Android virtual device emulator, as shown here:
After filling out all the parameters, just click the "Create AVD" button, and your new AVD will be created, and it will appear in the list of Android Virtual Devices in the previous dialog, like this:
You can now use this AVD in your Eclipse/Android development projects.

I'm developing a hybrid app using ionic2.
I have installed android SDK, JDK, ant and necessary things but I'm not able to create avd.
I ran this command- android avd
i see the window to create virtual devices. But even after setting every value, I'm not able to click OK.
Here's a screenshot.
Where did I go wrong?
As
No system images installed for this target.
indicates you need to open the Android SDK Manager and install the SDK Platform / System image for the Android version you are targeting.
You need to install these two from sdk.
For creating an Android emulator you must have the system image installed. You can do it either from sdk manager or during the installation.
for doing from sdk manager:
open sdkmanager (from android studio File->settings->Appearence and behaviour -> System settings -> Android Sdk)
Check more packages checkbox
Click on your desired Android version
Check the checkboxes of the system images you want
Click appy
For downloading during installation
open the AVD Manager
Create Virtual Device
choose the device and press next
download the system image
I have spent a 2 days trying to set up a Cordova App and to run it in an android emulator following the instructions on this page (https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/guide/cli/index.html) and relating pages. I have encountered countless issues, the latest one being that the android emulator wont run. When I run:
cordova emulate android
I get the following message which just stays there:
No emulator specified, defaulting to Nexus_5x_API_23_x86
Waiting for emulator.....
After searching for answers it seems I need to set up an Android Virtual Device (AVD). I have therefore started following these instructions (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/managing-avds.html) as told to do so by the Cordova instructions but I dont have the AVD Manager option available in my Android Studio.
I have the path to the SDK set up as shown below.
Can anyone help with this? I am so fed up and confused by it all...
***********UPDATE**************
After the help below, I launched the AVD Manager from the Android SDK folder but came across the following error:
Dont create the emulator in Android Studio. Instead create it with AVD Manager.exe
I suppose you have an android SDK folder (appart from the one created by Android Studio). In that SDK folder, you'll have AVD Manager.exe
Run the AVD Manager from there, create the virtual machine (emulator) and launch it.
Then use the appropriate cordova command to launch the app (in the running emulator ; created as I suggested)
In my case this is how the things work :
Steps :
I have downloaded android SDK package (for instance from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_android_sdk) and saved for instance at C:\Android_SDK
In that folder, you can download specific API level with SDK Manager.exe
and create emulators with AVD Manager.exe
Next create an emulator via AVD Manager.exe located where you saved the SDK package (here C:\Android_SDK)
Launch (start) the emulator
WHEN THE EMULATOR IS DONE LOADING, run cordova build android and cordova emulate android
(Don't forget to be in the working directory of your cordova project)
VOILA !!!
Looks like you're missing the whole "Android" option in the Tools subsection, so I would start by checking if the Menus and Toolbars to check if everything is ok. This is how it looks on my computer (it's the macOS version, but should be similar)
If you're missing that section, try "Adding after" the options you're missing. Anyway, you should be able to run the Android Virtual Device manager by running the AVD.exe command on the binary folder
Yesterday I upgrade android studio to 2.0 and now I can't find api 15 image to create new emulator?
I was having the same problem (have API 15 installed but it won't show up in the list) and the solution was to manually create a new AVD via the Standalone SDK Manager
Please see my detailed post here:
Manually create a new AVD via the Standalone SDK Manager
My solution for 25.01.2017
go to android sdk folder
go to tools folder
open old SDK Manager by double-click android.bat
(make sure api 15 is installed)
on top menu of window, click on Tools>Manage AVDs
create here Your device and set target.
open Android Studio, open window with list of devices and refresh
In this example, device will not have skin. You might want to use one from the list.
Memory is a bit small, maybe 2048 would be better. After creation of AVD image, list of devices in Android Studio will have opportunity to edit created device and set bigger ram.
run Android SDK Manager
install API 15 (check android 4.0.3)
I am trying to install the Samsung GALAXY Tab Emulator for Eclipse but I can't find the "Android SDK and AVD Manager". I can only find them individually:
I can't see any options on either the AVD or the SDK manager that lets me install the Emulator. On the Samsung developer website it tells me I need to use the Android SDK and AVD Manager:
Where can I find this program?
I think You are following this Link :
Using-Samsung-Emulators-for-Android-Application-Development
this tutorial is so OLD so There is some updates in it you have to follow..
Download SAMSUNG TAB EMULATOR
After Downloading the skin extract the zip file and copy it in the path Android SDK > Platforms > android-x > skins. In android-x (x is the platform version number)
In Eclipse IDE go to Window > Android Virtual Device Manager.
To Create New Android Virtual Device Click On New And in the Device field Select Device with Specified Resolution And in the Target Field select Android API level (Android API level must be same where the skin has been copied) from the drop down list available.
Then select the Built-in option in Skin options available. And in the built-in option drop down box find the skin added in the platform and select.
Now click on OK button to add the new skin. (NOTE : please chose all related information according to fields)
and Your AVD has been created succesfully..
Hope This Helps...
I don't think, you really need to launch them concurrently to install Samsung Emulator, but if you really need it you can do it from command line. Just go to android-sdk/tools folder and run:
./android sdk
for Android SDK manager
./android avd
for Android AVD manager
it will be probably android.exe on Windows, but should work the same way.
Try the below cited answer from Kim Ki Won, I found here:
"I found under website.
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-GALAXY-Tab-Emulator
Extract zip file to add-ons under android sdk path. then launch Android SDK Manager. under "extras" folder check "Android + Google APIs for GALAXY Tab, API 8, revision 1" item and install package.
That's all."
I have windows 8 64bit. Today I downloaded latest Android SDK 64bit (ADT boundle). I'm unpacked this boundle and I'm launched SDK Manager.exe to download needed packages.
List of downloaded packages:
All from "Tools"
All for Android 4.2.2 (API 17)
From Extras:
Android Support Library
Google USB Driver
Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM)
Then I set an emulator in AVD but I can't start this emulator. I see how progress bar working and message "Starting emulator for AVD 'test'" but when progress bar is finished window disappear and emulator isn't started. Eclipse, Console log is empty.
Can someone help me please? I also tried 32bit version of Android SDK but I have same result.
Set ANDROID_SDK_HOME environment variable in System.
Restart IDE and create AVD again.
You can try this
Android SDK path : D:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\sdk\tools
Menu right click into emulator-x86.exe -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Check Run this program in compatibility for -> Windows XP SP 3 -> Apply -> OK
Now run CMD in Admin mode -> type D:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522\sdk\tools\emulator-x86.exe -avd -nameAVD
And will try run your APK in IDE
thanks to another post on so which i can not find anymore (and to which i wanted to reply in the first place) i used this method :
On windows 7 (perhaps on MAC too ?) :
simply delete the .android folder in your USER/ folder and voilà.
When you open eclipse or android studio, the .android folder will be recreated and your avd will run just fine.
PS : you do not need to uninstall the android sdk manager program.
PS2 : you may need to recreate your AVDs.
PS3 : you may lose all your previous AVDs data (but who cares it is only for testing your apps)
Similar issue occurred to me:
Verified the SDK location:
File > Project Structure > SDK Location is set to:
C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
Clicked on many 'install' OR 'fix' links for several issues in status bar of Android Studio showed.
Restarted Android Studio IDE (Green circle icon with A in it, NOT the IntelliJ IDEA with red-black-blue icon)
Android Studio > Tools > Android > AVD Manager
I have below already:
Android Accelerated Nougat x86_64 Download
Android ARM Nougat arm Download
NOTE: If I didn't have above, I would have done:
+ Create virtual device > Nexus 5X > Recommended > P Download
I clicked on Download of "Android Accelerated Nougat" (OR, we can do for "P Download")
Several installations happened, errors popped, I waited until all activity is done.
Restarted the Android Studio
Click "Run App" icon (Green triangle on tool bar top), OR press Shift+F10
Emulator successfully launched.
