Is there something I forgot to do beyond the instructions in the dev resources for installation on the android sdk site?
I went through a couple of the test projects to get a feel for it, and keep getting execution fc's in the emulator, exported everything to my laptop(vista 32bit) and no problems.
Have reinstalled the sdk, eclipse and java on my desktop machine but no help. Any thoughts?
Weird question, but have you set the SDK version when you created the project? Happends when you are in a hurry!
I've googled my butt off. Any help is appreciated. I've been following the directions here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html
I have downloaded the entire android SDK. There is absolutely nothing that it will let me download. I have all the versions of environments, etc. I have JDK already installed (latest version.)
When I run eclipse and attempt to download the "Developer Tools" ADT plugin with "help->install new software", it says this:
Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.
Software being installed: Android Development Tools 10.0.1.v201103111512-110841 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group

Any ideas on what I'm missing?
nm. for some reason eclipse didn't have the default repositories programmed in already.
**Microsoft Windows ONLY*
This installer is for new people looking to root their HTC Thunderbolt (not sure on other HTC devices but should work.) I compiled an SDK installer that installs all the necessary files to the directory of your choice (default C:\sdk) to your PC. This installer also includes HTC Sync for the Drivers as well as Java if you do not already have Java installed.
So if you're new to Android and want the tools to root, this might be the place to start before making that big step.
**If you have problems with it installing, try right clicking and running as administrator
Android SDK Installer with HTC Sync and Java v3.0 - 117 MB
*This is a pretty good size file but remember it also includes HTC Sync and Java within the installer.
*You cannot download Java and HTC Sync at the same time, so be patient.
*If you do not want to install HTC Sync but want the driver allow it to install them and then cancel out when asking to install HTC Sync.
*If you already have Java you can cancel out of the Java Installer.
**Download might take longer depending on your Internet Connection.
Please let me know what you think below.
Thanks!

The only difference in the tutorials is the path.
The path for adb with this installer will be: C:\sdk\platform-tools
*Big thanks to CoolSilver for helping me test this out
Looks good! But where's the link?
Sorry, was still uploading it. Its updated now.
Tried it out, works fine. ADB setup and working.
Such a good idea. Trying to talk someone through installation of sdk is kind of maddening. Do we still have to add the path?

No, it auto installs to C:\sdk
C:\sdk\platform-tools\
This will help a lot of those I see struggling with root not knowing anything about sdk/adb. Great post. Perhaps linking a guide to adb will help people as well?
Looks good. Newbs all around are rejoicing.

Andrew. You. Are. Amazing!!
Norton Antivirus Deletes it once downloaded, Its Saying it a bad Program.
Im going to Disable it and give it a shot.
failed msxml 4.0 sp3
failed windows media format 11 runtime
first time i ran with java installing also and nothing installed, so i reran it after and this time the first two failed, im assuming i do need both, should i get them from the source instead?

I can guarantee and you have my word that the applicaton installer is clean. Norton AV also has many false positives.

Hmm, strange. What version of Windows are you running?
Also, check to see whether you already have java installed. If you do then java is not necessary to complete the installation successfully.
Great job man great contribution! Cheers to you

Glad you were able to get it to work!
Thanks for this!!! My plan is to slowly get to root. I want to try to push a few apps first.
This works really well. Made setting up adb and rooting the thunderbolt so easy.
Thanks I used this to help root my phone.
Only issue I notice is that when I click sdk manager.exe the console comes up shortly and dissappears after about 2 seconds. How do I fix this? Is it because your program only installs the non-jdk version of Java possibly?
Any tips would be appeciated
Hello,
I ran into a couple problems having android studio to install and work. thought I'd share my findings!
First, it wouldn't install. Not finding Java JDK even though it was installed.
This is solved by changing the name of C:\Windows\System32\Java.exe to something else before the installation.
Don't forget to change it back to java.exe once installed.
After installing Android studio, it wouldn't run (normal or admin didn't change a thing).
You will need to create a system environment variable named JDK_HOME with your JDK installation path (in my case C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\ ).
Android studio should now launch. (more help here )
Now that Android Studio launches, it asks for the latest android SDK
Just download and install the SDK 22 from Here
make sure you run the .exe as administrator after installation
NB :

For those having issues starting Android Studio in some Linux distros, such as Studio not finding JAVA_HOME, JDK_HOME, STUDIO_JDK, set any of those variables to the directory where Java is installed (e.g. /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_21) previously to the whole validation statements in the startup shell file (studio.sh) and everything should be fine...

Does Android Studio requires JDK 7 or greater ?? coz i have JDK 1.6 on my Windows 7 it doesnt start up even after setting JDK_HOME or JAVA_HOME. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon9.gif

It should work fine on 1.6.
Maybe it depends if you're 32bit or 64bit?
My personal setup is Windows 8 64 bit running the 64bit version of Java 1.7.
Also, for the SDK issues, if you already have the SDK installed from using Eclipse, you can just point Android Studio to that SDK under Project Settings or something (I forget the exact wording of the setting and I'm not at my computer right now...)
Thank you! I was having trouble getting Android Studio to start once installed. Setting JDK_HOME fixed this.
Im using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and set the JDK_HOME variable but it wont start...
/Edit: it works now.
HI
Thanks for this tips.
working fine for me
If someone is just beginning app development, starting with hello world app. Would you recommend him eclipse or android studio?

I'm having a small issue with Android Studio for Mac, and was wondering if anyone was running into a similar issue or has any advice.
When running my application, I'm getting an error on the install, specifically a Failure: [install_failed_invalid_apk].
I'm sure it's something really simple and elementary, but it wasn't an error I'm familiar with seeing coming from Eclipse.
Try on Linux.

android studio is in 0.1 version, while eclipse is a really good IDE for android coding.
i get used to Eclipse, and i love it more. but also i think that Google will make android studio to be the right tool for development.
Maybe android studio is in 0.1, but is based on intellij Idea which is not new, supports android already, and seems better and faster.
I don't know how it is for an experienced developer which already know ways to move, but I started with Eclipse about a year ago, and I can say that I hate it. I've lost hours and hours to wait the very slow build process of eclipse, to wait for recover from crashes, to wait for restarts because graphical editor goes mad, to clean and reclean project so eclipse be able to see a new resource added, fix and refix layouts because graphical editor shows them completely wrong(especially on dialogs).
I don't know how android studio or intellij Idea will be(I used it for very short time until now), but I find it better, faster and maybe easier(maybe because I'm more familiar with eclipse) and I think that I will spend less time to learn it that the time I'll loose with eclipse.
Fixed [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK]
Ok, so I was able to fix the [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK] error I was getting, and finally get my app running on my phone. I'm not saying this will work for everyone, but it worked for me.
When I examined Logcat, I found that my package name in the Manifest was what was giving me issues, specifically the default package name given by Android Studio on project creation. The package name in my Manifest was invalid, and did not have a "." separator. Once I corrected this, I was able to run my application.
Another error I found further down the line was that new activities do not appear to be automatically added to the Android Manifest at the moment, so keep that in mind as well.
Happy programming
A different problem, if Android studio doesn't start, could be that the studio must be run as administrator. So it was at least for me.

Proxy Settings for Gradle/Maven
Hi,
just tried the Android Studio using a proxy on WindowsXP.
Even if configuring the proxy in the Settings I got an error when creating a new project.
First I had to download the "gradle-1.6-bin.zip" and had to copy it to ".gradle\wrapper\dists\gradle-1.6-bin\72.....\
After that Gradle couldn't connect to the maven repository.
Solution: create a "gradle.properties" file in the ".gradle" directory
with content like this
Code:
systemProp.http.proxyHost=
systemProp.http.proxyPort=8080
systemProp.http.proxyUser=
systemProp.http.proxyPassword=
After that the first test project was generated without problems.
And even running it from the IDE and deploying/starting on my device (Galaxy Note, N7000) succeeded.
Is anyone here using this on Win 7 or 8? It has the stupid taskbar problem like Eclipse where you pin the exe, but when you launch it, it adds a second icon to the taskbar for the actual running app. What's even more ridiculous is, IntelliJ, which Android Studio basically is, doesn't have this problem! Any solutions?
