Hello all. Pls answer this quick question.
Inspite of being an xda member for a while, i haven't had the knowledge of android development. Im just starting to learn things from now.
So, i think i should learn java (dalvik VM part). Now Im just following a book of developing android apps for noobs. I need to install eclipse and install ADT plugin for eclipse.
Well, im on windows7 ultimate 32bit version. I previously had an ECLIPSE HELIOS VERSION (i think it is eclipse classic 3.6, not sure but it shows eclipse helios on startup). I installed this eclipse helios version. But the problem is i cant install the ADT plugin in any way.
I tried "https://" with no luck. Also tried "http://" with no luck. Also tried "INSTALL FROM ZIP ARCHIVE" with no luck. Also tried this with older ADT zip archives ofcourse with no luck.
The single most error it shows for all these attempts is "Cannot complete the install because one or more required/requested items could not be found."
What do you say. Is the eclipse version having bug with ADT plugin. Or do i need to download another eclipse version. If so please give me the direct file download link for the version you recommend (please since im completely new to this).
Now also installed eclipse indigo and the same problem continued. What should I do.

You need to be connected to the internet to installed the required items. I had that error and once I connected to the internet I was fine. But I also had to download the ZIP file because the http-https didn't work for me either.

I'm having a similar problem. I've downloaded the JDK, Android SDK, and Eclipse indigo. I first tried importing the plugin to classic, and it said "requires plugin org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui". So I went back to Eclipse's site and found a version that included WST. Now it's telling me that it can't find one of the files. I've tried both the https, http, and zip versions. I've scoured developer.android, and there's nothing describing my problem.
I'm trying to get into the Android programming scene, but it seems like the "initiation ceremony" is getting the better of me.
Resolved
I managed to find a solution to the problem. Rather than installing Indigo, I reverted to a version of Helios, and everything worked perfectly

I'm trying to setup eclipse for Android but have run into an issue.
I'm following the guide here: bah, I can't post outside links from being a new user. But if you go to developer (dot) android (dot) com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html -- This is the part that I'm stuck on.
I've got eclipse to download the ADT plugin, but when trying to follow "Configuring the ADT plugin" I open the preferences via Windows > Preferences (step 1), but there is no "Android" option on the left hand side as indicated in step (2).
Any idea why this would be happening?
Thanks,
~kb
EDIT: This should really be in the base android development forum. I've messaged a moderator to hopefully get it moved, sorry for posting it in the wrong forum.
The Android option is not coming up under Window>Preferences in Eclipse after installing the ADT?
One reason that this may be occurring is because of Windows 7 security settings. Try starting up Eclipse with “Run as administrator.”
1) Start Eclipse with ‘Run as administrator’ (It may ask to change workspace directory. I just made it c:\workspace temporarily.)
2) Download the ADT plug-in with Eclipse as directed in the Android documentation
3) Profit
Note: I did not have to run as administrator every time. Once it was installed I could see it when I started Eclipse normally, but I had to set the Android SDK directory again.

this is happening to me also, but it was on ubuntu after i upgraded from lucid to maverick. ...i hate upgrading ubuntu...
Did you guys find any solution yet? I can't see "Android" under preferences either. And I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 recently.
I don't think the dev kit works well with Eclipse 3.6.
Try the 3.5 download
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/galileosr2
It is 3.5.
eclipse : issue fixed
I just signed in as I wanted to let you know about that issue I got.. fixed !
I tried several tricks so to speak, uninstalled Eclipse, uninstalled ADT plugin, reinstall the SDK, tried with and without adding the SKD path to the $PATH...
Using linux, I just deleted the .eclipse directory that was in my home directory.
You will have to add the repository for the ADT plugin to be installed, install the plugin... and restart Eclipse (not to mention you'll have to reinstall ALL the plugin you added, correct me if IM wrong).
Then you should be able to set the preferences about the SDK path... and have a new menu item (new project -> android )
Dont ask me what happened while upgrading my ubuntu from 10.04 to 10.10, I actually didnt take some time to investigate about it (ubuntu64 10.10)
(sorry about my english by the way)
Cheers,
Fabrice (France)
you're welcome.
Thanks LinuxFab, I'll give it a try.
Did this work?
I'm using a mac, so I'm wondering if this fix at least worked for ubuntu, lemme know! Thanks
Hey all I was wondering if someone could help me out in installing and setting up eclipse. I tried before and ended up installing something called glassfish3 or something like that so what would be ideal is a list of links to the downloads I need to get maybe in the order I need to install them in? =P It would really be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Anyone? Please! I have the JDK & Java & Eclipse installed and Eclipse will not startup, I get an error....
"A Java Runtime Enviroment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse. No Java Virtual machine was found after searching the following locations:
C:\eclipse\jre\bin\javaw.exe
javaw.exe in your current PATH"
Someone suggested that I need to install the SDK but I thought that was only needed specifically for Android? & Before i setup Android I'd like to have Eclipse fully functional to avoid and problems that could occur. I installed Eclipse for EE Developers or whatever, the biggest file they and I installed JDK 6 Update 21

I'm almost close of not asking any more questions but I had problems with apk manager, I got it right, and I had problems with Avabox, and I got that right but now I'm having problems with Eclipse. I installed basically both files of Eclipse the big file and the small fiile (I didn't know which one I needed).
when I open the eclipse program I get this message:
"Failed to load the JNI shared library : c:\program files (x86)\java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll
I don't know what this means. can someone help me? thanks.
Sorry I'm also a noob at installing eclipse, but thought this might be a good place to ask my question too. I found a tutorial on how to install everything (i.e. eclipse, JDK, and SDK) put it said I needed to change my PATH to point to /tools and now after doing that I can't open eclipse. I go the same error you did in your first post. I'm thinking I needed the other lines that were in the PATH, but now I don't know what they were.
If you follow the steps here, it is fairly simple and easy:

You have to download first de java JDK (jre is not enought) and then download and instal eclipse... Just follow the instructions on the link

I've gone through this and had eclipse up and running. Even created some AVDs. Here is the part that screwed it up though.
"On Windows, right-click on My Computer, and select Properties. Under the Advanced tab, hit the Environment Variables button, and in the dialog that comes up, double-click on Path (under System Variables). Add the full path to the tools/ and platform-tools/ directories to the path. "

I downloaded the 32 bit version of eclipse and javaw.exe was not missing anymore. How do i use eclipse though?
Edit: I get it, JDK.
Never mind - hitting Back and then Next again seems to get around this. It doesn't make the slightest bit of sense, but it did work for me.
I'm going a bit nuts trying to install the Android SDK using the installer installer_r10-windows.exe on my 64-bit Windows 7 computer. It always gives me an error about not having the Java development kit installed, despite the fact that I've installed it using jdk-6u24-windows-x64.exe. I have properly set the environment variables for both the jre and the jdk and rebooted. None of this seems to make any difference.
Any hints?
I had the same problem. I downloaded the zip file, instead of the exe, and that worked.
mstevens,
You really don't need the SDK to to the "NVFlash" stuff needed in connection with the ROMs here.
You could go to the "NVFlash" Recovery thread STICKY at the start of
Developers forum and download the "Windows" .zip files there and install
it. The procedure is part of the NVFlash stuff.
If you need the whole SDK then so be it. But if you don't this is an
alternative.

I'd already been running stuff from the extracted .zip file.
One of my computers seems unable to run an emulator - even though it can create .avd files with no difficulty, it claims it can't find them when I try to launch one.
I'd hoped that a fully-installed version of the sdk might fix this. It didn't. Oh, well.
However, as noted in the edit to my original post, I did find a somewhat silly fix for my installation problem.
So I'm attempting to root my Evo Shift.
Before that, I need to download and Install both HTC Sync (Already Installed) and the SDK.
But The SDK won't install after I downloaded it. It says I need the Java SE Development Kit (JDK). I downloaded the JDK off of this page:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
I tried the first one. Same thing, didn't let me install the SDK when I tried again. Then I tried the last one. Same thing again. I already have JRE. I just need the JDK. The JDK got properly installed, but it still didn't let me go through with installed the SDK.
Does anyone know what I can possibly do?
Are there ways around this?
I got enough replies on my post for someone to tell me something.
Someone HAS to know the solution to this problem.
I read that if you just click back and then next again it will work. Tried that and I failed.
SOO many things I have tried.
I went back on the SDK download website and downloaded the .zip file instead of the .exe file. I extracted it but don't know where to go from there.
Is there another where of rooting my phone without SDK?

ANYONE?!
Hello everybody.
I'm new here and I looked for an answer for me but I didn't found it.
My problem is:
I've used Eclipse Luna and ADT Bundle with no problems while several months. Two days ago I installed Android Studio and after installation it began to download 'SDK Tools' and others. I cancelled this operation because I haven't time. Since this moment, SDK Manager doesn't run. It open an MS-DOS Windows but it only flashes, in less than one second it dissapears. I can't open it from command-line, eclipse and android studio.
I found several solutions like editing android.bat, find_java.bat, setting environments variables (JAVA_HOME, PATH was set and I added ANDROID_SWT and ANDROID_HOME), re-install Android Studio, update jdk version from jdk1.7.0_13 to jdk1.7.0_79. All didn't work.
Have anybody had this problem or similar? Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance.
Anybody has had this error?
