Offline system images & packages installation unsuccessful [Eclipse/Android SDK/Java] - Other Tools & General Discussion

Offline system images & packages installation unsuccessful [Eclipse/Android SDK/Java]
I am currently setting up Android SDK, eclipse and Java JDK for app development. Am fairly new to it so am not familiar with very technical jargons. I have managed to successfully setup Java JDK offline and eclipse partially. I say partially because I have been able to get it to recognize platforms, platform tools and build tools by creating recognizable folders and extracting the zip contents into them. I have not succeeded for the system images as I don't know what folder naming is requires for them to be recognized as installed in the android-sdk folder. My pc is currently located in a area where there is no cable or broadband internet since the facility is fairly new but 4G data is available but very expensive.
I tried the tutorial where you create a temp folder in android-sdk, then connect to 4G just to get the SDK manager to read the necessary packages, then disconnect, then run install packages so that it now sources them locally from the temp folder but it fails to install.
The packages I need installed but dont have their zips for offline installation are:-
- Android SDK Build-tools, revision 23.0.1
- Documentation for Android SDK, API 23, revision 1
- SDK Platform Android 6.0, API 23, revision 1
- Samples for SDK API 23, revision 2
- Android TV ARM EABI v7a System Image, Android API 23, revision 2
- Android TV Intel x86 Atom System Image, Android API 23, revision 2
- ARM EABI v7a System Image, Android API 23, revision 3
- Intel x86 Atom_64 System Image, Android API 23, revision 3
- Intel x86 Atom System Image, Android API 23, revision 3
- Google APIs, Android API 23, revision 1
- Google APIs ARM EABI v7a System Image, Google Inc. API 23, revision 7
- Google APIs Intel x86 Atom_64 System Image, Google Inc. API 23, revision 7
- Google APIs Intel x86 Atom System Image, Google Inc. API 23, revision 7
- Sources for Android SDK, API 23, revision 1
- Android Support Library, revision 23.0.1
- Google USB Driver, revision 11
Can anyone provide me with these zips and what folders to create in the android-sdk folder to get them installed?

Hi
not sure what your operating system is, but I've built an offline installer for android sdk which works best on linux (it can be used on W*ndows too, provided that it has cygwin installed.) you might want to check it out at github.com/icefapper/offdroid.
my two cents.

The iso files are hybrid format. That means you can dump the iso into a usb drive and get a bootable usb stick, like
$ dd if=android-x86-4.0-RC2-xxx.iso of=/dev/sdX
where /dev/sdX is the device name of your usb drive.
Known issues
Suspend and resume doesn't work on some targets.
Not support Ethernet.
Source code
The source code is available in the main git server,
$ repo init -u http://git.android-x86.org/manifest -b ics-x86
$ repo sync
as well as the SourceForge mirror:
$ repo init -u git://android-x86.git.sf.net/gitroot/android-x86/x86/platform/manifest.git -b ics-x86

At the same time, I wanna share with you, my personal and custom Unofficial builds one for Asus EeePC T101MT (Exclusive for my device ) and another one for EeePC Generic, with all included, you can find more info and some captures, a full description of my changes and a video demo of my build in action here.
Also, I did a little howto add houdini libs in our devices (the tutorial from BuilDroid is to apply in your source code and now part of this method isnt necesary, now you just need to copy some libs) you can fin more info here
COOKING TIME WITH ARNDROID-X86!
Enjoy!, Cheers.
installed the thinkpad version on my dell inspiron 1300. I can load the broadcom b43xx via debug mode but it does not scan or show or connect to any wifi networks. that is the only issue I have so far.

Same with Broadcom BCM4310 USB Controller on HP Compaq 6830s NN328ES
The solution that has helped me: disable WPA2 encryption, leave only WPA
Vaka++ (C)
Strange, but the authors of the assembly did not put the firmware for the devices, but the modules were collected, respectively, because this device does not work, such as my wi-fi card.
Added many different firmware for devices wi-fi (especially for my zd1211rw) and touchscreens and different chipsets.
archive with firmware
Unpack the archive to the /system/lib/

[DOWNLOAD] Latest Linux ADB/Fastboot x64 Linux binaries (as of Feb '14)

Pardon me if there is already a thread that has these, but I couldn't for the life of me find them anywhere. So I downloaded the latest SDK and pulled the binaries [file android-sdk_r22.3-linux.tgz, works on Android 4.4.2].
Should work on 32 and 64-bit [tested on 64-bit].
adb_fastboot-1.0.31.bz2 - 0.58MB - https://www.mediafire.com/?8guoc2ijera2jqw

[Binary][4.1+] Latest SQLite3 Binary For Android With PIE Support

Long time ago, when I am just start having an Android device with root, I am trying to use an app that need me to have sqlite3 binary, but my device doesnt come with it pre-installed, so I have to download the installer from Play Store.
However after some day I factory reset my device, I found that app have disappeared from Play Store, also the new SQLite installer in the play store only support armv6 and armv7 device, and I can't find any other binary other than armv6 and armv7 on the web, but I need x86 binary for my android emulator.
So I have compiled some binary with multiple device support using Android NDK, these binary are all with PIE (Position Independent Executables), since PIE support are added in Android JellyBean (4.1), these binary will only work for Android 4.1+ , these binary are amalgamation (combined into a single file).
I've created a github, for those whose want to compile themself:
https://github.com/EXALAB/sqlite3-android
The binary are at the attachment below, you can also find it on github
Binary version: 3.21.0
Binary
Supported Device:
armeabi (armv5 and armv6)
armeabi-v7a (armv7)
arm64-v8a (aarch64)
x86
x86_64
Since manually copying the binary to device may need extra work for some people, I've created an installer too on Play Store, it will automatically installed the binary based on your device's architecture, root access is required.

Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

Is there some kind of pc emulator that i could restore an entire phone on to it?

I have a full backup of my phone,plus samsung and google backups.
i want to restore it onto something on a pc .(it should look just like a phone with all the apps+data,files etc)
Is there anything like this?
Thank you
Android emulators for PC are x86 / x86_64 based, Android phones are ARM32 / ARM64 based. So you need on PC an emulator that has libhoudini in-built - what is the ARM to INTEL translation tool - developed by Intel.

How to install&run latest wechat on android-x86 virtualbox?

I get stuck to install wechat 8.0.3 on android x86 virtualbox. I downloaded android x86 r9 from android-x86.org and install at virtualbox. After that, I tried to install wechat apk from my pc or from google play directly over virtual device, but it's failed to open in both cases. installation was successful and wechat apk was armeabi-v7a. but I am not sure why it's crashed when it's opened. Any help??
You installed a WeChat version what was compiled to be run on an ARM device: VirtualBox emulator runs apps compiled for INTEL devices.
You have to install WeChat UWP

Thanks, jwoegerbauer. Can you guide me how to install wechat uwp on android x86 virtualbox?
IMHO far easier is to install libhoudini - the ARM to Intel translator - on your x86-Android:
libhoudini/4.0.8.45720/system/lib/libhoudini.so at master · Rprop/libhoudini
the default ARM translation layer for x86, extracted partly from Nexus Player - libhoudini/4.0.8.45720/system/lib/libhoudini.so at master · Rprop/libhoudini

Thanks. I pushed houdini8_y.so into /system/etc and ran /system/bin/enable_nativebridge. APL was installed, but it's crashed at opening. In the log, it returns fault when it access to mmkv.so. Should I use 4.0.8 in android x86 v8.1?
