I want to download an older version of the Android SDK: 21.0.0, Where can I do this?
I currently have the latest version of the android SDK, downloaded from HERE.
However I want an older version, can the Full older version of the SDK be downloaded from anywhere?
I am trying to get the older version using SDK manager, but It is not working. I.e. it is only giving me build tools etc.
Have you tried the links at: http://developer.android.com/sdk/older_releases.html?
OR -
First check this link to find out what revision number you need. Then use one of these links:
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r[rev]-windows.zip
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r[rev]-linux.zip
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r[rev]-macosx.zip
Example for v21.1 for Windows:
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r21.1-windows.zip
You need to use the exact revision number as listed in the link above. Examples: 22, 22.0.1, etc...
Official Android Studio download archives containing all releases can be found here: https://developer.android.com/studio/archive
Android Studio will contain the SDK.
I was also looking for this & found this little easier to download previous ANDROID SDK version.
For MAC
Open Android Studio
Navigate to Preference as following
android studio >> preferences >> Appearance & Behaviours >> Android
SDK
On right pane: You can see mapping of SDK against API Levels.
Select the version you want & Click APPLY.
This will download the selected SDK version and install.
https://developer.android.com/sdk/older_releases
This page provides archived and obsolete versions of the Android SDK, including non-current versions of active releases and "early look" versions that were released before Android 1.0.
Here it is, but only for Windows: Android SDK OLD
If you are using the SDK Manager, just click "Show Package Details" in the lower right hand corner to display all previous versions of the various tools (SDK Command-line, NDK, Build-Tools). Then select the versions you need.

I've tried to install android SDK from official site. It include latest android SDK tools (version 25.3.1)
This package have utility android which is needed by my project (very big one); but this tool is no longer available:
The android command is no longer available.
For manual SDK and AVD management, please use Android Studio.
For command-line tools, use tools/bin/sdkmanager and tools/bin/avdmanager
According to changelog it was discontinued in version 25.3.0 so I tried to check sdkmanager for older versions but unfortunately it only contains single version of tools.
How do I get an old version of android SDK with working android tool?
The official site has only latest version. Other links no longer work.
UPD.
Appium also encountered this, they just fixed their tools to use the new setup.
Links described here still work:
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.5-macosx.zip - Mac OS X
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.5-windows.zip - Windows
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.5-linux.zip - Linux
Though it seems that google doesn't want older versions of SDK to be used by all means so this link may not last long.
This is my first question in this site so forgive me if this is asked before.
My Laptop is very humble (Acer 5733Z) and can't run Android Studio conveniently and the CPU does not have the virtualization feature to support emulator so I use the eclipse ADT plugin for developing simple apps for android since it runs smoothly without any problems.
But the problem is that i have only up to API17 (Android 4.2) SDK installed and when I open the SDK manager to install the newer SDK' it doesn't show any newer API's as shown :

So, Is there any way to add SDK's manually or something ?
Any help would be extremely appreciated.
IIRC, you need to update the "SDK Tools" and "SDK Platform-tools" entries before you can download newer SDKs. You will see those highlighted with yellow download arrows, and if you click the "Install 3 packages" button, the SDK Manager will download and upgrade those packages.
you want to update your SDK Tools for newer version of android
latest is r24.4.1 in this version android 6 now available
you can see this link for detail of all sdk tools version

I am trying to get the android simulator working in Appcelerator's Titanium Studio on Windows 7, but it is not compatible with the latest Tools version (23) due to android issue #66740. However I can't seem to find a way to install Tools version 22.
I used the Google installer from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html
After installing if I run titanium setup check in the cmd window it says that the tools is unsupported version 23.0.2 and platform tools is unsupported version 20.
According to the Titanium Docs I need Tools version 22 and Platform Tools version 19. I can't figure out a way to get earlier version of either, I can only install earlier versions of the Build-tools and SDK.
Well, you could use direct link, like http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r21.1-windows.zip - here is tools revision 21.1 with platform tools revision 19 (if you will download revision 22, just change the number; it will have r20 platform tools).
You could find more in official documentation of Titanium: http://docs.appcelerator.com/titanium/3.0/#!/guide/Installing_the_Android_SDK)
Or, you could just use tool right in Titanium: Go in dashboard, in "get started" click on "Android SDK->Install or Update Android SDK", as seen in picture [1]. Then unhide settings, select empty folder to installing sdk, and versions of Android [2]. It will install, and it should work.
Sorry, couldn't post images so far, so here:

Go to android sdk manager and download all the versions you want to do

Thanks
I had the same problem. Eventually I have found the bug report that referred to it: TIMOB-17221. The bug is marked as fixed in SDK 3.3.0, but that version of SDK has not been released yet, so I was stuck again.
Then from Appcelerator's Wiki I found out that there is a Titanium CI builds page. Download 3.3.0 from there, install and everything should start working again. At least it did for me. Good luck!
i have installed android sdk.
i have also downloaded and installed the adt plugin in my eclipse ide.
now when i go to preferences to set the path for android sdk, when i set the path and then press apply-- automatically the target api should be listed below. But they are not being listed below for some reason.
what could be the problem?
thank you in advance
Within eclipse, go to Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager then choose Installed Packages from the left hand side. Do you see things like SDK Platform Android 2.3, API 9, revision 1 listed? If not then you need to download them. Select Available Packages then expand Android Repository then select the SDK versions you want to download.
Why my target option in eclipse is disabled? I cant select the target platform.
On the other hand the platform folder and adds-on are empty.
Plz any ideas?
After you have installed your SDK, you need to download all the platforms you need (like Android 1.5, Google API's, so on...)
Then you should create some virtual devices with some parameters (like screen size, sd card...). Then you should run the app over the platform you like.
I guess you need to install required platforms.
Eclipse > Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager > Available Packages ....
Encountered the same problem. The Android SDK archive does not come populated with a specific Android platform or Google add-on. We can use the SDK Manager to install or update SDK components such as platforms,tools, add-ons, and documentation. I used the eclipse tooling option path provided by the first answer. There is also a "SDK Manager.exe" file that can be used to download outside eclipse.
You need to install the complete API that you're working on.
Suppose, In my case I am working on Android 5.0 SDK Tools and I Froyo 2.2 for minimum SDK Verison support. So Now I have 2 SDK Tools Installed, Android 5.0 and Android 2.2.
To make them support as Target SDK, I need to install the complete package from Android SDK Manager.
In your case install the complete package of the respective API you're using. After installing, restart eclipse and then your Target Option will be enabled.
