Android :: ADT Plugin And SDK Not Working On Windows 7
Oct 29, 2009
I have a problem getting the Android SDK to work on my new Windows 7 computer. The ADT plugin in Eclipse will not open, when I run SDK setup.exe I do get a window, but settings wont get saved and the app disappears. When I click 'New' in the virtual devices pane. When I run android.bat from a command prompt I get the following error:
-snip- Error: Unable to read AVDs Error: Unable to get the home directory. Make sure the user.home property is set up Error: Unable to get the home directory. Make sure the user.home property is set up com.android.prefs.AndroidLocation$AndroidLocationException: Unable to get the home directory. Make sure the user.home property is set up
-snip- I have a dutch install of windows 7 where the users directory is named differently and already tried to change the HOMEPATH, APPDATA, LOCALAPPDATA and USERPROFILE paths in the registry to the dutch version of the directory. Which didn't work either.
Eclipse version: GALILEO (Eclipse IDE for Java Developers Build id: 20090920-1017)
Android SDK version: Android SDK R3 windows (I tried previous sdk versions. Same problem) Windows 7 Home Premium.

I've tried to search for similar problems, but can't seem to find it.
I run:
Windows 7
Java SE Developement Kit x64
Eclipse Helios (downloaded here from Eclipses homepage --> Downloads --> Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers --> 64 Bit)
"Android SDK Windows"
I've been following the guide from the Android Developers homepage.
I can launch Eclipse just fine. Under Help --> Install New Software ...
Here, I give it a name myself (Android Plugin Test), and under location, I've typed "http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse", as said in the link.
Then it find Developement Kit, and I install it and all that & restart Eclipse.
The following are now installed:
- Android DDMS
- Android Development Tools
- Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers
So everything seems fine.
BUT ..
When I go to Window --> Preferences, "Android" is missing.
I have no problems seeing General, Ant, Data Management etc.
So my question is, what's the problem ?
As said, I downloaded Android SDK, but when I try to run the setup, I get this error, about missing Java:
And that's where I'm lost.
Because, under installed programs, it says:
- Java(TM) SE Developement Kit 6 Update 21 (64-bit)
And yes, I have restarted after installing Java.
For some odd reason, it's not possible for to run the SDK setup with any compatibility. It's greyed out
(Yes, I'm admin, and I don't have any problems on other programs)
I checked the Requirements for Android SDK, and it says Windows XP & Vista, but not 7 .. But as far as I know, other people got it to work.

I need to change the emulator's default time zone. It worked in command line with -timezone option. But when I tried it in eclipse android's launch options. it didn't work. I set it in Window->preferences->android->launch->default emulator options. Am I setting it in a wrong place?

I'm trying to install the components for developing Android apps on my Mac with Leopard osx 10.5.8. Since i use an outdated version of Eclipse "Ganymede" i have decided to upgrade to 32bit Indigo, i have downloaded the SDK and installed the recomended components with Android manager as explained, this in the Applications directory (where Eclipse is also installed), then i have downloaded the ADT plugin for eclipse successfully, Eclipse asked me to restart and so i did, but when after the restart, i click on Eclipse > Preferences..... i dont see the Android directory, when i create a new project, even under 'Other' there is no Android option, though if i display the installed plugin i see the Android ADT plugin listed I dont think it is a SDK issue, i think the ADT plug in its the cause of the malfunction, but i would not know where to check this since it is correclty installed.

I have been having trouble trying to use the Netbeans Profiler with Android. The android plugin itself (for netbeans from kenai) works fine, though when I try and use the Netbeans profiler with it, it fails to work.When I run the profiler a small message window pops up saying "connecting to the target VM", it stays at that for about 2-3 mins then the window closes and nothing else happens.Is anyone else here using netbeans and having this problem? I would also like to point out that I am using Netbeans and Eclipse with the android plugin as part of my Honors project at Uni, Im doing a comparison you see.

I just bought the Motorola Milestone for about a week. Initially when I added the Calender as a Widget to my home screen, there is a little open window showing my next appointment(s) for the day or next day. However, I accidentally trashed it and when I tried to add it back to my home screen again, I am unable to get the same and the Calender merely appears as a little icon. Is there any particular setting that I may have missed out?

I'm using a Windows 8 Pro and somehow my fastboot usb isn't working. It installed Android 1.0, but nothing happened after that. I can't flash any kernel with this. Everytime I go fastboot, there's no usb indication, but when I press volume button up or down it states fastboot usb but still can't flash anything.

On my brand new Windows 7 machine, I downloaded Eclipse (Galileo) and several Eclipse plugins (Android's ADT plugin, Subclipse, etc.) After rebooting, neither of these plugins are showing up in the IDE (nothing in the preferences, menus, etc.) but if I click "Installation Details" in the 'About Eclipse' popup, I see all of the plugins listed as Installed Software. (ex. Android DDMS 0.9.5, Subclipse 1.6.5, etc.) How do I get my plugins to work?

What is this "PC mode" that comes up as an option when you plug into a computer? Does it do something in windows? I run Ubuntu and it does nothing when I select it. The manual doesn't mention it, at least not the PDF I downloaded. It covers mass storage and windows media sync but not PC Mode.

I have had DC 2.08.1 installed for about 2 weeks with no issues. I decided to go ahead and partition the SD to utilized apps2SD as I was having memory issues. That process, while not smooth, went through okay and the SD card is working with the partition and apps2SD. However, ever since that was completed, my Windows 7 box no longer recognizes the phone either as a phone or as a drive. My Linux laptop recognizes the drive without issue.
Any suggestions on how I can reintroduce my phone to the Windows box, at least as a drive?

I'm trying to develop plugin for eclipse that should draw my custom view inflated from XML. Everything works fine until eclipse tries to instantiate any class from android.jar library. It fails with Runtime exception without any other helpful information (stub!).

I am using a laptop with Windows 7 Home Prem x64. I have installed Java JDK1.6.0_18 and Eclipse Gallileo. I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Android SDK with several Platforms loaded and a AVD defined. I can install the Android Eclipse plugin from the remote site stated in the instructions. The plugin installation performs without any errors and I can verify that the plugins are indeed installed. My problem begins when I go to Windows -> Preferences, there is no Android section to configure. And when I go to File -> New -> Project, there is no Android Project to choose. I have uninstalled the plugin and reinstalled at least 10 times, trying different things and still no luck. I originally had the 64 bit version of the JDK installed, but removed it and installed the 32 bit version. Is it because I am using Windows 7?

I'm sure I'm not the first one to say this, but for goodness sakes, we need a very good Android UI builder plugin for Eclipse or whatever other java tools developers are using. A nice toolbox docked on the side where I can drag and drop controls to the screen/form and then allow me to set the properties in the prop inspector and then create events, etc. I've got ideas for some business applications and I HATE having to deal with main.xml. Droid Draw is okay, but it is a far cry from having a good UI plugin.

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and installed Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) for Java Developers along with the Android SDK. When I add the following URL into the "work With" field under Eclipse's Install New Software menu:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
No plugins appear between the "Work With" and "Options" sections. I understand I'm supposed to be able to select "Developer Tools". I get nothing. I've tried linking to http vice https. Also, downloading the zip from the android dev site itself yields the same result. When I run "Check for Updates", it comes back saying nothing to update. I also ran "Test Connection" for the above URL and it comes back positive.

I would like to start developing for Android platform with NetBeans IDE.I am searching around the web for about a week now looking for working android plugin or a tutorial how to setup netbeans IDE for android development and so far nothing usable turns up.There is a NBAndroid plugin that doesn't work with recent netbeans.I also found very few tutorials describing how to set it up, but none of them produce anything that resembles a usable setup.Can someone please write-up a much needed working tutorial or port the eclipse plugin to netbeans?Maybe Google should be the one raising this issue, not me?We really don't want to switch to Eclipse as this creates a large ripple effect in our development environment that we can't afford.

My eclipse galileo was working fine till morning; when i checked for updates for it and also updated the ADT then it asked to restart eclipse. Now i cant see any kind of Android options/menu in eclipse. But i can see ADT in installed software. Even if i open my old projects in the workspace, eclipse is unable to recognize any of the Android classes.

I recently upgraded from 0.9.2 (I think) to 0.9.4 of the SDK plugin using Eclipse's 'Check for updates' and for a while everything seemed ok. Now I'm getting random errors and odd behavior everywhere:
- if I try and run or debug a previously working app in the Emulator from Eclipse, I get 'Could not find ...apk' errors.
- when the app does start in the emulator, in debug mode the app just stays in the Emulator with the 'Waiting for debugger' message and the debugger never attaches
- a previously running app that had a dependency to another source project in Eclipse now builds ok, but is giving ClassNotFound exceptions at runtime in the emulator when running.
In general it seems the SDK and the Emulator are in a messed up state. Is there an easy way to remove the SDK from Eclipse and reinstall? Is it as simple as removing files from Eclipse's plugins dir?

Does he use a plugin to edit the .xml for the layout because mine looks totally different. It's just plain code.
