Has anybody had any success with developing for Android platform using Netbeans (5.5+ ) IDE? I know of atleast netbeans one plugin that is supposed to support it but wanted to hear if anyone is using netbeans for Android development and how easy it is to set it up.
There is a project called nbandroid (formerly called undroid) which is a Netbeans version of ADT and it works quite fine with SDK 1.0
http://nbandroid.org/
In the past it was hosted at undroid.nolimit.cz and nbandroid.kenai.com, both these sites are obsolete now.
Android was built with the Eclipse IDE in mind.
It can work with any IDE, but if you don't have any strong feelings towards NetBeans you're probably better off developing for it with Eclipse.
http://nbandroid.org/ and (with sources hosted at https://bitbucket.org/nbandroid/nbandroid) will help you.
This project is a continuation of the first attempt originally published at undroid.ulimit.cz.

Can Eclipse in conjunction with ADT still be used for Android Development (and if yes, how do I go about it) or should I just keep using Android Studio?
I tried setting up ADT on my Eclipse, but it wouldn't work (after many, many tries).
Any advice would be appreciated.
yes you can but the best practice for android development is by using Android Studio because linux users has also problem with eclipse. you can take help from below link
https://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/android/docs/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html
but as per my suggestion you should use Android Studio because if you are using eclipse then you need to migrate the code also.
first time NBandroid user here, I've followed the instructions of 1 video and 3 textual tutorials on installing it into NetBeans, I can create a Android project, The code itself doesn't give errors but when I try run it it gives an innumerably large amount of errors,
Screenshot here.
I have 32bit netbeans version 8.2, java 32bit version 8u111 and windows 8
64bit.
I did as they said to the best of my knowledge, downloaded SDK and all the extra packages i needed (but only android 4.4.2 API not earlier or later), loaded it under tools->options, set nb android in the update list etc, Any help appreciated, sorry if I left out any info, I really need this problem sorted out soon.
You shouldn't use Netbeans for developing Android apps.
Android Studio is the official IDE and NetBeans and Eclipse both are not supported by Google (the developer of Android).
Just try
Just had the same issue. It looks like NBAndroid does not work with Netbeans 8.2.
It worked for me with Netbeans 8.1.
Can anyone help me with installing the correct version of eclipse to use for developing android mobile applications with the associated plug ins needed
These videos by me :) can help you to set up Android development environment using Eclipse.
Here's the link : Set up android.
Caution : If you have been using Eclipse with ADT, be aware that Android Studio is now the official IDE for Android, so you should migrate to Android Studio to receive all the latest IDE updates. For help moving projects, see Migrating to Android Studio.
As Petey suggested in his comment, I would recommend giving AndroidStudio a spin as it is very well suited to Android programming. However, take a look at the eclipse ADT plugin which can be installed via the eclipse marketplace or a direct download from Google (Google ADT page).
That should give you enough information to get things rolling, but again I would strongly recommend trying to switch over to AndroidStudio. I think you will find the entire experience easier to get into and enjoy.
Here is the link :)
P.S. Why do people still use Eclipse while there is a GREAT tool for developing Android applications?
So I've been trying to install libgdx for a few days with Eclipse and it kept telling me various things (Android ADT, Java JDK, etc.) needed to be updated, so I did that, but I kept getting the same error.
Then I decided to download an older version (0.9.8) and I used the gdx-setup-ui.jar to set up my projects. But upon opening them in the Eclipse/ADT bundle, the Android and HTML projects had errors in them involving the import statements, which I tried to solve to no avail.
This is the tutorial I've mainly tried to follow.
Does anybody have a solution for me to get it to work? I'm most familiar with Eclipse, having worked with it for Android for a while now, so I'd prefer not to switch IDEs.
Thanks in Advance
Use ADT (Android Developer Tools) instead of Eclipse. (Is the same thing anyways)

If you got errors after importing your projects on android, right click on the android project, and at android, check the version that is there.
For HTML you need to install the GWT plugin.
Recently libGDX has moved to Gradle, so you might want to look over that

I am an eclipse user and android developer.
I am trying to develop android applications using scala. I managed to do an hello world once in eclipse and now I am trying to do it with Intellij IDEA, so I can choose the best option. I managed to run simple scala examples in Intellij and I am trying now to create an android application there.
The problem is: Eclipse seems a lot more EASY to build an android application with scala than Intellij. For what I have seen you need to use SBT and install a lot of "extras" to get things done.
I have seen some questions here about IDEs for Scala. But didn't find a recent question about the combo Scala + Android.
So, my question is... Should I give Intellij a try or eclipse is just fine? Is it possible to run the application on my smartphone easly with Intellij?
I haven't tried Eclipse with Android IDE so I cannot compare. I use IntelliJ 10.5 for Android development with Scala. And it just works perfectly.
All you need is to download Scala plugin with IntelliJ's build-in plugin manager. Android support is installed by default in Idea 10.5.
I can highly recommend Idea 10.5 for Android development with Scala.
I have tried Intellij Idea but it wasn't as simple as Eclipse. You should prefer eclipse rather than using this Intellij.
