[Q] Genymotion malfuntion - General Questions and Answers

Hello guys, I purposely put that title above. The actual problem is I can't drag and drop to flash the Gapps, when I try to drag and drop, the icon changes to no-entry icon(see in attachment). Recently I've downloaded Genymotion and started using it, but I can't find those Gapps, so I browsed and I found that we need to flash them ourselves. Now ! Everywhere, the tutorial talking about this flashing always uses "DRAG & DROP" wth ! I can't do it. I've found some similar case and thread outside there. But maybe it's only a rare case, I still can't found an absolute solution for it.
I've came to stackoverflow threads with titles :
Genymotion 2.0 “drag and drop”
How to install google play service in the genymotion (ubuntu 13.04) .Currently it doesn't have drag and drop suport
(I can't post links yet). So I've tried all of them. But nothing work. One of them said that the problem is I've not installed Android SDK ("If you can't Drag&Drop that means you don't have the Android SDK installed on your PC") .I don't really understand that one. As I know, Android SDK doesn't have any connection to genymotion and they are not being installed instead only extracted. But somehow, I've edited my genymotion ADB setting to the Android SDK directory. I HAVE ANDROID SDK. Guys once again, appreciated that you're reading this till here. I've been working on this for hours and there's no solution. Please some experts help troubleshooting this trouble together with me. I'm sure there is someone out there who is facing the same problem too

[SOLVED] Android SDK Updater on OpenSuSE 11.2: Not able to get a platform

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.

Configuring ADT plugin for eclipse -- no Android option in preferences

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

Can't install Android SDK - "can't find" 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.

SDK Manager installation problem

Hello, I am trying to install android SDK in my computer. Im following this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466042
And when I am opening SDK manager Im getting this error : (i tried to google it, but nothing helped me :/ )
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/585/androidsdkas.jpg/
I really need your help, maybe you can advice me what should i do .
google search " android sdk" and go to the official site
Sorry cant post the link properly until i have ten posts
developer"DOT"android"DOT"com/sdk/index"DOT"html (replace "DOT" with . )
This is what I used to install the android sdk (with eclipse) and it worked flawlessly albeit a little slow
Id recommend this method theres a tutorial on the page ive linked along with the download files if ya wanna use this id uninstall whatever you've already downloaded
Good luck
if you go into your tools directory within your Android SDK, do you see the file "android.bat" that it is looking for? If so, simply run that bat file and see if that helps to get you any further with your installation.

[Q] SDK Manager doesn't run/start

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?
