The recent upgrade to Dreamweaver CS5.5 finally installs the Android SDK correctly, but when using the Build & Emulate feature it only launches the 4.0.3 AVD.
How do you tell it to launch one of the other AVD's such as 2.3?
A quick answer > Android 4.0.3 is the default emulation platform , you can change to other platforms through the Manage AVDs dialog. Detailed steps below
Go to Site > Mobile Applications > Application Settings
In the resulting Native Application Settings Dialog, provide the Author Name and Under the Select Target OS Version Click on Manage AVDs …
You will see Android SDK Manager’s Tools tab on the top of your screen, Click on Tools > Manage AVDs..
The resulting dialog lists the existing AVDs
Click on New ..
Provide the Name for the New AVD and select the preferred Target platform from the Target dropdown.You can leave the rest of the options to default.
Close the dialog and return to the Native Application Settings dialog.
From the dropdown for the Target OS for Android , you can see the New AVD listed, Select It and Save.
You can now Build and emulate on the New Platform!!!

Until now I have only programmed for Windows, but I would like to try Android.
So, I installed Delphi 10.4 CE with all the options.
Then, I installed all the recommended stuff with SDK Manager.
Then, I connected my (Huawei) phone to my (Windows 10) laptop with USB, and found out how to activate the developer mode and remote debugging.
Then, I created a blank multi device application.
But still, Delphi refuses to even show the "Android" option! (I can only select "Windows 32 bit")
What am I missing? I'm getting desperate after so many hours of searching!
There is no Android option in the Delphi IDE:
Seems like your issue is that Android hasn't been added as a platform option within your project.
First, you'll need to make sure that you have the Android platform installed. You can do this by going to "Tools" and then "Manage Platforms..." from the main menu:
Once you have the Android Platform installed in your IDE, then within your project, you can add it as a platform option by right-clicking on the "Target Platforms" option in your Projects window, then selecting "Add Platform...":
Within that menu, you'll be able to select Android as an option as can be seen in the screenshot below:
Once you have Android added as a platform option, then you should see your phone under "Target":
If you're not sure where to find your Projects window, see below:
When creating an AVD in Android Studio, system images for API 14 and 15 are missing in the list (though I actually installed the corresponding SDK versions in the SDK manager).
I think this issue appeared since the upgrade to Android Studio 2.0.
How can I create an AVD for these API versions?
NOTE: This answer assumes that the API etc. are already correctly installed. The OP (and myself) were having the specific problem even when those prerequisites were done, but still couldn’t get the API to be available in the Virtual Device Manager when creating a new device.
SOLUTION: Manually create a new AVD via the Standalone SDK Manager (steps and screenshots below).
Mac
Open SDK Manager: Tools > Android > AVD Manager
Launch the Standalone SDK Manager by clicking the link at the bottom
In the SDK Manager, manually create a new AVD
Tools > Manage AVDs (stay on the Android Virtual Devices tab)
IMPORTANT: I had to click away from the Android SDK Manager window and go back before the menu options would work
Click ‘Create'
Click the ‘Target’ dropdown and you should see all your APIs (15 in my case)
Select whatever options you want for the rest of the settings and click ‘OK’
Click ‘OK' on the next confirmation window
You should then see your device with the API you wanted in the AVD Manager.
I am using xamarin studio for create android application.
first i am open emulator like MonoForAndroid_API_12 from manage android windows and in my project is target framwork 4.4(kit kat) version of android and then finally i am run application but studio give me error "Running this project requires an Android device with API 19 or above.To run this project, either plug in a compatible device, add a compatible virtual device, or target a lower API level in your project settings."
Now i am create one sample helloworld application in xamarin studio then i am try to open emulator manager but it seems different version of android application. so i want to create a new emulator manager so i have goto tools and click on manage android device and open new window. there is two emulator but its different or older version and in this window one option like create emulator and i have click more time in that button but nothing happening.
so please tell me how to create a new emulator?
Regards,
You will need to use the AVD manager tool to create a new image for your emalator, make sure to set the API support to 19 (or higher) to fit your needs.
The 2 AVD images that are currently configured are not compliant with the version you need.

I have installed Android SDK on my Ubuntu 11.04. I have run a common ./android to install. It was expected to see some options like "Available packages" to install android packages. But I haven't seen any options. After that have configured SDK Location path in Preferences in Eclipse I didn't get any SDK targets. When I open AVD Manager in Eclipse, it says "no AVD available". Could you please let me know how can I configure AVDs in my Eclipse?
To configure a basic Android Virtual Device (AVD)
Open Eclipse and select Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager.
In the resulting window, select Virtual Devices in the left panel and click the New button on the right. This launches a new window to configure an AVD.In the first blank of this new window, give the device a name of your choice. Let's choose Simple2.2, indicating that this will be a relatively minimal device running Android 2.2.
Under the Target dropdown, select Android 2.2 - API Level 8.
Under SD Card enter 1024 for Size and be sure that the MiB dropdown is selected.
For Skin select Built-In and Default (HGVA).
Leave everything else as is and click Create AVD.
After a while (be patient, it may take a minute or so) this should create a new AVD with the characteristics specified that will appear in the list if Virtual Devices is selected in the left panel.
You might prefer a different configuration, but the one described above is considered optimal.
I have installed the SDKs(1.5,1.6,2.1,2.2) from AVD manager, and created a new emulator device with version 1.5. However, I cannot find this device in run configuration target. It only displays the devices created with version 2.2.
What's the minimumSdkVersion/targetSdkVersion version in your XML ?
It looks like this is a bug. "Run Configurations"/"Debug Configurations" filter out all emulators that have API Level lower than what is specified in target property in default.properties file of Android project.
There is one workaround.
In your "Run Configurations"/"Debug Configurations" select your configuration, go to "Target" tab and click on "Manual" radio button. This will show you list of running emulators when you want to start/debug you app.
Start Android 1.5 emulator manually (from AVD Manager), wait until eclipse sees this emulator as "online" in "Devices" view.
Start you application and select the Android 1.5 emulator to run on.
