has ended, per our announcement. You should migrate your app
development projects to Android Studio as soon as possible. For more
information on transitioning to Android Studio, see Migrating from

There is no option for changing the repository in Android SDK Manager

Error screenshot
I am currently coding in Visual Studio 2022 Community Preview. I googled my problem and there I found that changing the repository to Google would solve the problem, but in my android SDK manager, there is no option for changing the repository.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Visual Studio includes an Android SDK Manager that you use to download Android SDK tools, platforms, and other components that you need for developing Xamarin.Android apps.
See Tools -> Android -> Android SDK Manager.
Under Platforms you'll find various Android versions for the emulator and under Tools you can install various tools.
Also
See Tools -> Options -> Xamarin -> Android Settings
and make sure that the Auto Install Android SDKs is checked.
There is a folder path called Android SDK Location, if it's empty you can browse for it in your computer yourself to find it.

Android studio is not properly installed

extra android m2 repository,extra google m2 repository and 2 more sdk components were not installed.
This message was displaying after the installation of Android studio.
Some components as Android sdk manager and AVD are not working properly.
Please guide me how to fix the problem.
Try to open Android SDK Manager and Select Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Platform-tools and update and then restart Android SDK Manager you will find Extras now install Android Support Repository inside Extras.If this doesn't help i guess you have to Re-install the software while reinstalling keep your internet connection on it may download packages and files form internet.
See to it that you have downloaded Android SDK properly without any issue.
I hope this answer helps..

Use Android Studio with existing Android SDK Tools

NOTICE: I found other questions and answers about the same issue, but the answers are for older versions of Android Studio, and I want confirmation if it still can work for the latest version of Android Studio (2.2.3.0 which was released on December 6, 2016)
I'm new to the Android development and I selected the IDE to use wrongly and before thinking and knowing which IDE to use.
So after this mistake, I must use Android Studio now to use the GRADLE libraries as Eclipse doesn't officialy support them (because Eclipse is now discontinued).
The Android Studio is 1.63 GB (including the Android SDK), while Android Studio is 417 MB (without the Android SDK).
I have Android SDK Tools R25.2.3 ( latest ) already downloaded, so I don't want to download the whole Studio + The Android SDK again.
Is it possible to download the Android Studio without the SDK, then link the SDK to the Studio manually?
I'd be very thankful if someone could help!
Yes it is possible , Studio and SDK can been seen as separate components and they can be linked by providing SDK path in the studio IDE or you can configure you SDK path thorough the setting menu shown at the start screen of android studio.
You can download the standalone IDE through Official Android Studio site.
Note : http://tools.android.com/ has dropped the support of providing separate SDK and IDE components but still IDE can be downloaded individually from Android Official Download Link
Steps to configure after download
1.) Download and Extract the IDE
2.) Find studio or studio64 exe and run the appropriate one in your OS
3.) When you start your studio , it will probably ask for SDK location through a prompt screen and provide the location and hit next and next , eventually it will show you a little process for update window and show you finish screen (Must follow the note below)
3.a) If there was no prompt screen shown then you can configure the SDK path using the setting option on the Splash screen of android studio
3.b) It's possible that when you open an old studio project and SDKis still not configured because every project has it's own setting so again you can see the link in error/log window as configure SDK and just click the link and provide path
Note : Disable internet before configuring you studio otherwise it will look for Updates
Helpful points to possible issue
For old project , replace the old dependencies with the one you have in project structure link for Visual representation of steps
Replace the gradle version with the one supported by your new studio and do the same if any other tool is not found.
Definitely. The Android Studio IDE prompts you to specify the path containing the Android SDK tools, if it doesn't detect the SDK automatically.

How to setup Eclipse for Android

I'm trying to get Eclipse setup for Android and have done the following steps. I'm using the book "Android 101" and basically following the steps.
(1) Installed Java SDK
(2) Installed Eclipse
(3) Installed Android SDK
I start Eclipse and go to Window->Preferences and expect to see Android in the list. I'm supposed to select Android then point it to where I installed the Android SDK. The problem is that I'm not seeing Android in the list.
I did not have any trouble with the Java or Android installs, and I didn't see any option in the Eclipse install specific to Android.
I've searched on Stack Overflow and Googled, and am not finding anything.
From inside Eclipse select Help->Install New Software then click NEW.
Install ADT from https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
After that you point it to your Android SDK install location and the APIs all show up. Hit APPLY and OK, then ready to start working.
The best plan here is to follow the advice given on the Android Developers blog in June, 2015.
[…] we are ending development and official support for the Android Developer Tools (ADT) in Eclipse at the end of the year. This specifically includes the Eclipse ADT plugin and Android Ant build system. If you have not had the chance to migrate your projects to Android Studio, now is the time.
I'm a long-time Eclipse user, and I recently fired up Android Studio for some brief Android testing. There was definitely a learning curve, but it wasn't insurmountable.

Xamarin - disconnected from layout renderer

I just downloaded xamarin studio. I get an error message "disconnected from layout renderer please close the file and try again" whenever i open a axml in the layout folder. I can view the source but can't go to the design tab to add controls. Closing the filed does not work.
I'm not sure how to find what version of xamarin.android i'm using but I just downloaded last night. When I go to the SDK manager it tells me my Android SDK Tools are version 23.0.4.
I found this old thread on the same topic. I tried renaming my tools folder and downgrading but that didnt' work either. It told me I need tools of at least version 22.
http://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/14344/disconnected-from-layout-renderer-error-after-updating-android-sdk-tools-to-version-22-6
I've tried uninstalling Xamarin Studio and reinstalling and that didn't help. I do have Visual Studio 2013 with update 3 installed too. But then I also tried installing Xamarin Studio on another laptop with Visual Studio 2012 and got the exact same problem.
Note: this error displays in both Visual Studio and Xamarin Studio.
I really hope I can get this resolved as i'm evaluating Xamarin for 2 companies. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Only this time, you need to downgrade from 23.0.4 to 23.0.2.
Just found this out the hard way.
Cheers
Thank you Balint! You made my weekend!!! Here is a direct link to the tools version that works.

I recently had this same issue when trying to open the main.xaml in Xamarin Studio for Mac OS X. Here are the steps I took to resolve the problem:
Open the Android SDK Manager in Xamarin Studio and delete the Android SDK Tools.
Re-download the SDK Tools from [https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html?hl=i]. Revision 23.0.2
Make sure the downloaded SDK is unzipped in the path /Users/username/Library/Developer/Xamarin/android-sdk-macosx
Then I launched the SDK Manager from the Terminal using cd library/developer/xamarin/android-sdk-macosx/tools ./android
When the SDK launches, make sure the Android SDK Tools is not selected, else it will update it to 23.0.5 which appears to currently be broken.
After the SDK Manager updates and installs all the packages, re-open Xamarin Studio and go to Preferences -> SDK Locations -> Android and chose the path for the Android SDK.
After following these steps I was able to successfully open the main.xaml files for Android on OS X.
