So android Studio is not an option as the minimum is 3GB of RAM (unless maybe I can use an older version?). I’m currently using a 64 bit HP stream laptop with 30 GB of memory and 2GB of RAM. I is there another way to get it or do I have to do without?īasically I’m looking for up to date help on how I can begin developing android apps using eclipse ide. I heard ADT isn’t supported anymore either. If u can help with links to a legit version of the SDK that would be great. exe file anywhere, but in eclipse the SDK manager works fine (although sometimes I get an error and have to launch it a second time). The name of the file I downloaded was tools_r25.2.3-windows.zip. I’m not sure if that could be the problem. So I googled and found one which I downloaded. I feel I should mention that I couldn’t find a download link for the SDK on the android studio website. (the CPU/ABI drop down list also has no options) The after filling out information the ok button is grayed out. So I downloaded the android sdk, and I set the location in eclipse using eclipse preferences.īut whenever I try to start a new android application project, after I enter the name of the app the next and finish buttons are grayed out(also when I click the drop down list for compile with there are no options to choose from).Īlso the same problem when I try to create new AVD. I’ve been coding in java for a couple days but my main focus is to make android apps. My problem in detail: I’ve finally cleared the necessary space on my machine and downloaded eclipse ide and the jdk 8. And do I need the SDK to create an android virtual device in eclipse. My question is do I need to have an android SDK package saved to start a new android project, even if I don’t want to run it.
