I I have all the basic setup files to install android, i have downloaded them from my office..
But the problem is, it downloads too much data during installation.....Because i have to install this at my home and my Internet connection is very slow so downloading might not possible....
I have a desktop and not laptop so i also can not take it to office....
Of let leave story and come to point....Is there any setup available that i can download full sdk from my office so that i need not to connect to Internet at my home.
Any suggestion?
Install at your office, put the installed and updated android sdk on an usb stick.
You can download anywhere. Android SDK will work just by copy/Paste the entire SDK folder.
You can port android sdk to any other machine by just copy/paste only if you are running both with Windows OS(XP,Vista & 7). But it is different in linux or mac.
If you use Eclipse IDE for android development you have to provide the folder where you copied the android SDK in the project properties.

I want to get a standalone android bundle so that i can keep it in a USB and use it on any computer.
I don't want to carry my laptop to my college everyday I tried doing that but I had to download SDK on every PC which isn't exactly what I'm looking for...
for the Android studio in the usb view go in the bottom of the page,you'll find the no installer option ,click here
however JDK (Java Development Kit) are not, which is required to run AS. So you still need to install JDK in each computer you use.
I have a few questions and I'm hoping some people could explain it a bit more.
Recently Xamarin has been released to the public for free and you're able to download/install it for free.
Let me say first that I have Windows 7 and Visual Studio 2015 installed on my computer.
I have succesfully installed Xamarin and the Java/Androids SDKs and got it running.
But now I have the following 'problems':
When opening a new Xamarin Forms project I get the following message:
"A problem was encountered creating the sub project 'Projectname.Windows'. This project requires a Visual Studio update to load. Right-click on the project and choose "Download Update"."
Is this because of my OS?
When opening the new project, the 'ProjectName.UWP (Universal Windows)' subproject always give errormessages on everthing.
Reason?
If I want to run the .IOS subproject, is the only way by connection a IOS device? Is there no emulator for example an Iphone?
Thank you.
It's possible that you don't have the SDK / tooling installed for Windows Phone, so you will have to download the update as described in the error message - this should resolve the problem.
What error messages are you receiving?
You need to connect to a Mac over the network which will allow you to build and debug your apps. You can deploy apps to the iOS Simulator on your Mac, or to an iOS device connected to your Mac, from Visual Studio. For more information on using Xamarin.iOS with Visual Studio, I would suggest the following guide: Introduction to Xamarin.iOS for Visual Studio
Regarding your questions.
1. You should check you updates of the Visual Studio. There are a possibilities that the supporting packages can't locate. The error says that you need to download the updates. Nah, it's not about your OS. If you are done installing the visual studio, then your IDE is working properly. The problem persist is whenever you are lack of updates and packages in the give project.
2. The error could be your pc has no windows emulator to support the UWP to run properly. If you have one, uninstall it and install again.
3. You can use emulator, iOS Emulator but you still need a mac. There's a agreement between microsoft and mac regarding this thing. So far, until now, you can't run iOS simulator in Windows without Mac devices with XCODE
I hope it makes sense.
Answers to your Questions
1. it may be a visual studio update issue, try with latest.
2. i think UWP projects are not supporting with windows 7 OS(correct me if i am wrong), and also try with shared project structure,because portable has some problems with windows 7.
3. Yes currently there is no iOS emulator for Visual studio, if you want to run your app on ios simulator you have to connect your visual studio to Mac machine and then you can run.
Hope this will help
Answering your questions:
1- you might need to upgrade to windows 10. I have solved many issues when I upgraded to Windows 10. VS 2017 works very well with win10.
2- I would definitely recommend downloading the Visual Studio emulator which is a dedicated standalone application that has many emulators. It's much faster and reliable than android emulator. Also it has iPhone and windows emulator too.
3- in order to be able to use iPhone emulator, you must either do:
A) have a Mac device in the network to be able to connect VS with it. And it must have xcode installed on it.
B) you can also do a vmware virtual machine on any windows device and install on it xcode.
For detailed explanation on how tondo the above you can find them on YouTube.
Hope you have more luck.
I have a slow internet connection in my home. But I have fast connection at my office . So, what are the tools, I needed to download ,as a beginner, for android apps development. I know that I need android studio, java and SDK.Is there any other tools that I need as a beginner?
You only need to download All Android Studio Packages on the bottom of the website but when you are installing that it download some parts from the internet but not even close to the 1Gb of Android Studio, it have included already the sdk and other things.
When you have already installed the Android Studio if you want extras like others emulators from older versions or other plugins, you can install later on your office or try with your internet because some things are not big.
I found a couple post that kept saying to stop the SecondaryInstaller.exe. That stops the installation of the Android SDK altogether. What I found that worked and the SDK installed correctly was stopping the Java.exe process. Everything installed correctly after that process was stopped.
It is because of Java. Check your machine
java -version
Your machine have to use java version 8 or the latest.
Otherwise your installation cannot be succeed.
This is usually a network issue. After you kill the process, if you're on a corporate network, you will need to open the Android SDK Manager, go to the options, and specify your company proxy server. Then do a modify on the VS 2015 install in Control Panel to check the boxes for the Cross Platform Development pieces. It should work like a charm.
Just go to
c:\Program files\Android and run android sdk manager.
Check/add the sdk version that you need to use before the new versions (features),
android sdk manager will validate that you need the sdk installed before apply the updates. if you dont have the sdk version then you need to uncheck all the newers features and install the sdk version before, after that you can add/check the newers features you need.
Disable WMM in your internet router. (Bandwidth Control options)
WMM Enable WLAN traffic control. After this function is enabled, the router manages all WLAN devices in your home network and properly allocates Internet access traffic to ensure stable connection speeds for each WLAN device.
If you turn off this feature the data transfer will not be interrupted.
This worked to me.
If you have windows 7 then you need to download Hyper-v and enable it on "windows features"
Guide and download link:
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/schadinio/2010/07/09/installing-hyper-v-manager-on-windows-7/
Relaunch the vs installer again, repair or add features should works now.
Hyper-v is a virtual machine manager.
Microsoft Visual Studio emulator for android needs hyper-v to open the SO.
Microsoft Visual Studio emulator is a fast android emulator.
Hope this can help
