Hey guys this is my first time really working on an android and I am trying to get it to work with Metropcs.
Here is my question.
I have this Android SDK r06 and when I execute it, a window pops up. There are several things checked and unchecked. I basically just hit accept all and then run it...
Do I need to accept all? or can I just run what was initially checked off when I first opened it?
I dont want to install any un needed stuff since this part takes forever!!!
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Alright, since my google search returned the whole 2 (two!) relevant results, and the search here around 10 irrelevant, I thought I'd drop this on the community, in hope for some help.
I've upgraded my 64bit OpenSuSE to 11.2 the other day, downloaded the Android SDK, set up the environment variables, and fired up the "android" script that is supposed to download and install a platform, so I could access my device through adb shell.
Here I ran into a problem: Half of the buttons I click in the SDK updater don't seem to work, it will not save the settings, it will not remember the URL I type in (had to use http), and when it reads the http repo, it will not download and install what I have cheked! What happens is, I click the button, it appears to stick down for a while, then pops back up as if I never clicked it, and nothing happens.
My first question is, has anybody tried this on SuSE 11.2? I have had no problems on 11.1, for instance.
Second, does this need any "special" Java configuration to work properly? I have tried both the openJava (now built-in into SuSE), and Sun Java latest (SDK and JRE). I don't think so, but asking just in case...
I'm pretty much stuck. If anyone has this working, or better yet, if anyone knows where I could download platforms outside of the updater, please be so kind and share. Thank you!
P.S. Oh, and the optional third question: Is there a way to trigger the download from console? That would probably help to figure out what goes wrong...
EDIT: Not Java problem, but updater problem. It does not show any of the SDKs, it shows only APIs, which can only be added if a valid SDK exists.
Can anyone confirm this?
It seems I need an external link to SDK 1.6 for Linux (for example). Can't anyone share?
Thanks!
Still stuck...
EDIT2: Solved it, my adb works again. But the updater app is crap I installed the APIs, then shut it down, rebooted, then ran it again. Also, for some reason the buttons wouldn't respond to clicks, but if I click and then push Enter key, it works. Took me a while to figure this one out.
Hey, I'm getting ready to install Android SKD on openSUSE 11.2 from scratch. Could you list your steps and/or suggestions based on how you got it working? Thanks.
How did it go?? Sry, just saw this...
Don't have time to do the steps.. actually, everything works just as the standard procedure suggests, with the exception of button clicks - as I said, each time I clicked a button, I had to press the Enter key (as if the click was just giving it focus, but not the actual command)
Feel free to PM me (or any other user), especially if the thread is a bit old, like this one.

Hey all, I could use a little help I'm new to this stuff. I installed the Android SDK all correctly with the correct Java JDK and for some reason when I create a virtual android and run it I get "Error Loading Preferences", is there any way I can fix this to get it to work? I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64-Bit (if you needed to know), thank you for your time and help in advanced.
Yeah, I'd like to know the answer to this also

Hello, im a NOOB! hahah
I just got my Samsung Focus today and well, i thought i would wait some time, but I wanna hack it already!
Following this nice tutorial, just in the 3rd part where it says:
Method 1:
Install Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW. The entry will automatically be added.
The setup is enourmously big but later you'll need it anyway! So I really advise you to choose this method!

First of all, i entered the link to download the Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW and the file was 3MB, so wheres the enormous bigfile?
So I downloaded it and its just a .exe named vm_web. I open it and it open and closes very fast, a window that looked like it was extracting something. I checked if something was installed, or if the windows registry chagned, but no, nothing happened.
So, where can I get the real file, or why is this not working?
Any answers would be greatly appreciated!
pd: **** i just saw the Q&A forum for WP7 matters. but hell, i'm a noob right? hahahaha
i've tried searching and can find no answers, i've been looking for an hour. so please, no flaming that there is an existing thread, i already tried.
i have installed ADB successfully before and used it. i'm doing it again because i have a fresh windows install, so i know how it works.
i'm trying to install the android 2.3.3 (API 10) package for android SDK manager, and most of the files downloaded with no problem. however, the opensense SDK for phones, droid4, droidrazr, mt870, mt917, xt882, and xt928 files are asking me for authentication to log in to dl.htcdev.com. i cannot download them without this.
i've tried using adb without the files it's asking me to log in for, no go. it won't recognize my device using ADB DEVICE from the command prompt. i am using an HTC sensation, i am in charge only mode, and i do have USB debugging enabled.
i've also looked high and low for another source to download the 2.3.3 android package and can't find it. any help is much appreciated.
anyone? was really hoping to get ICS installed this weekend, but i can't do anything until i can get superCID going.
nevermind, i got it figured out.

If you figured it out, please post your solution here. People who face the same problem in the future and find this thread (via Google), will benefit from your knowledge

A. OP has posted to say he "figured it out" without explaining...why post?? I don't care if you did or didn't....you just wasted someone's time reading this, just like my post now.... apologizing in advance for wasting next readers time
B. I actually ran into the same problem.....sdk, please sign in htc.dev??? time to search some more
Uncheck what ever it is from HTC that your trying to install or go to http://htcdev.com/ and create a login.
Hi all, first off im not a complete noob, I've rooted/bootloader unlocked a few phones, jailbroken apple devices etc... but this issue has me pulling my hair out now. Apologies if im in the wrong section of the forum.
So, i'm trying to unlock my bootloader on the OnePlus One using ADB through the Android SDK and i'm having several issues.
1 i cant get my phone to be recognised as an ADB device, have installed every single driver i can find anywhere, and none of it works, my phone has the necessary Developer Options enabled.
2 the Android SDK doesn't actually open for longer than a fraction of a second, i have tried multiple Java SDK's to direct the Android.bat file at, nothings happening for me.
3 i installed Eclipse to open the SDK in, Eclipse doesn't even open, it freezes
Im using Windows 10 on a HP630 laptop. Been trawling through the XDA forums among other forums and websites and im yet to find a solution, im about to try installing JDK 1.7 xxxx to see if i can redirect Android.bat to that version of the Java.exe
I'm aware of the process i have to go through to unlock my bootloader, its just i cant actually get the Android SDK to open, my phone to be picked up as an ADB device, and using Windows button +R to open ADB interface does absolutely nothing either, it flashes on for a fraction of a second and its gone again.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer me, im tempted to throw my laptop through the window.
