ADT Version 23(20140702) Start as Eclipse Juno

I've downloaded a new ADT version(20140702) from developer.android, but i just little bit curious, usually my ADT start with Android Developer Tools splash screen, but after i downloaded a new version, it's open as Eclipse Juno Splash Screen.
I know ADT is a plugin for the Eclipse IDE that is designed to give a powerful, integrated environment in which to build Android applications.
Thanks.
PS.
I not updated my ADT, i just downloaded from that link and run eclipse.exe as usual

I'm not sure how it's setup for the Windows version of ADT, however I'd like to share how to do it for the Mac OS version.
If your only concern is the splash screen and icon, you just have to tweak some files from the bundle.
Note: This is only tested in ADT Version 23 (20140702) downloaded from developer.android.
For the splashscreen
Go to your ADT bundle directory and open the config.ini file located in eclipse/configuration/.
Replace the following:
osgi.splashPath=platform\:/base/plugins/org.eclipse.platform
to this:
osgi.splashPath=platform\:/base/plugins/com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.package
then save the file.
And for the icon
Just edit the info.plist inside eclipse.app/Contents/ and change:
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>Eclipse.icns</string>
to:
<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
<string>adt.icns</string>
lastly, go to eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS and open the file eclipse.ini and modify:
-Xdock:icon=../Resources/Eclipse.icns to -Xdock:icon=../Resources/adt.icns
Hope this helps any Mac OS users of ADT out there.

The latest version of ADT has an issue. It doesn't work directly. Either use Android Studio or download Eclipse 4.4, and install ADT Plugin manually.

If you have any issue with it then you can download Eclipse from the official eclipse site and sdk from developer.android.

Android ADT 23.0.2 and Eclipse Issue

After my Android ENV got spoiled since I upgraded to version 23, I downloaded the latest ADT bundle and Eclipse is behaving weird.
First on launch it shows Unknown Publisher and doesn't give me the ADT look.
Unknown Publisher
Normal ADT launch screen
Here is my new ADT launch screen
My SDK Manager is almost fully updated too
And on selecting either new/old workspace this is how eclipse looks like:
I am not sure what needs to be done, has anyone faced such issue? Do I have to re-download everything again?
I am using Windows 7 64 bit machine with Java EE 7.

It appears that my ADT update went wrong somewhere, though SDK Manager was showing API 20 as downloaded under SDK\build-tools I couldn't find it.
Finally I just installed Eclipse Classic, ADT, Eclipse ADT plugin.
Even a fresh download and installation worked correctly

Eclipse Adt Plugin Doesn't Work

I can't install the adt plugin for eclipse.It says "Plugin is already installed" but I can't use.
Here you can see:http://prntscr.com/3zbzi4
Ps:Also I can't delete the plugin it's giving error.

I had a similar problem once i updated versions via SDK manager. It required ADT version 23.0 and above, and couldn't install them via install new software. I managed to delete ADT but that couldn't launch eclipse after to download v23.0.
I solved my problem via downloading lastest version of bundle from site.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
P.S. Try de-selecting Android Hierarchy Viewer and install rest. If others also cause similar problem, re-installing will probably be simpler option

I had this problem, and the only way I could get it to work again was to reinstall eclipse.
So I installed the latest eclipse, bundled together with ADT, works great.
I couldn't find the bundle maybe it doesn't exist anymore, but still, it's a bad answer i know, but reinstall works :/
Found the link: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

My experience is that if you have installed or updated the SDK then your ADT may not be compatible with your updated SDK.
For example -
When I installed 23.0.0, it wasn't installed because of dependencies,
ADT 23.0.0 (June 2014)
Dependencies:
Java 7 or higher is required if you are targeting the L Developer Preview.
Java 1.6 or higher is required if you are targeting other releases.
Eclipse Indigo (Version 3.7.2) or higher is required.
This version of ADT is designed for use with SDK Tools r23.0.0. If you haven't already installed SDK Tools r23.0.0 into your SDK, use
the Android SDK Manager to do so.
SOURCE: http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/eclipse-adt.html
Also, many problems were solved by doing the following steps for the ADT 23.0.2 -
update-eclipse-with-android-development-tools-23.

I had this as well after upgrading the SDK manager and build tools etc.
I had to remove Eclipse from my PC and then re-download a fresh copy of the Eclipse and ADT Bundle from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

I resolved this problem.
1)Uninstalled adt bundle then downloaded latest version.
2)Downloaded latest eclipse standart from eclipse site
3)Opened eclipse standart and changed workspace to C:\users....\workspace2
4)Installed latest ADT plugin from Help->Install New Software
And problem is resolved.

Android programming is not working in eclipse

My Eclipse was working fine until i updated my sdk.Then suddently everything started to show little weirder.Actyually I was working in Ubuntu 12.04 ,Which stopped showing even Java projects after updation.When I click New-->Project I can't find neither java/Android.I cant even find XML.I have done so many methods listed in some sites.But nothing is working for me.Can anyone please suggest a solution.
I have even tried in windows.But same problem happened & it says " Android Development Tools (20.0.0.v201206242043-391819) requires plug-in "org.eclipse.core.runtime (3.6.0)", or later version."
what to do?
please give me a solution
Thanking you in advance

Update your ADT to ADT 20.0.0 Then its will solve your problem.please refer below link
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html

Your update process probably resulted in loss of installed plugins.
You must update your eclipse to the latest version and then find updated plugins, ADT etc.
This I believe should work out.
Cheers!

//you need to download the eclipse 3.6 helios or 3.7 indigo
Eclipse 3.6.2 (Helios) or greater
Note: Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) is no longer supported with the latest version of ADT.
If you need to install Eclipse, you can download it from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/. We recommend the "Eclipse Classic" version.
Note: creating new Workspace cleaning project, restarting wont work.

Android plugin for Eclipse (ADT) disappears after SDK 20 upgrading

I've just upgraded to the Android SDK rev 20 and since then no way to install the ADT plugin in Eclipse 3.7.2. Although the package (Android DDMS, Android Development Tools) is referenced in the Eclipse installed software, I don't have shown-up any Android project or perspective, at the point that I can't set the SDK path in Windows/Preferences ...
I've also tried to re-install, nada. Accessory: Linux Ubuntu 12.04
Thanks for help!

SDK r20 works only with ADT r20 so you have to update your ADT too.
To update your ADT do the following procedure :
In eclipse go : Help -> Install New Software...
Now in Work with field type this link https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
Now press enter. You will see some items in list view below. Select all and press next.
Now accept the agreement an click next.
This will update your ADT. an you should be able to see it in eclipse
For more information see : Android Developer Site

I was having the same problems on Ubuntu 12.10.
I found that this was due to the fact I was using Java 1.5. After upgrading to Java 1.7, the problem disappeared

What JVM is your default on Ubuntu? ADT requires a JVM that can handle keystores correctly. Using Sun Java 6 is fine.
Besides that, ADT has optional dependencies to some of the Web Service Tools (WST) for the XML editing related features. Maybe you can check whether that is correctly installed?
And if nothing else helps: Eclipse 3.8 and 4.2 have been released 6 days ago, so just using a fresh installation of Eclipse 4.2 together with ADT 20 might be the best choice in the long run.

We had a similar problem.
Solved it by going to Help -> Check For Updates.
Deselect everything except the items that specify version 20. Can't remember the exact list by heart.
Then click next and follow instructions.
Should sort out the problem.
Edit:
The most important one is the "Android Development Tools" itself from that list.
The other 3 Android are also important.

Setting the "-vm" option in eclipse.ini with a JDK 1.6 solved the problem for me.
Trying to uninstall/install did not help.
