I was able tp get to the AVD Manager thru Android Studio. And you are correct that it is quite slow. I am currently getting a failure that says that it cant find the package manager... Humm.

This is why I generally build a simple launcher application that I manually load on to the device and it fetchs the real app from dropbox. I have never had much luck with the simulator.

Any suggestions for me to try?   I do have your hard link in place.

Hi Mike,

I start the Android command line app by double-clicking it in sdk/tools. This starts the SDK manager, which allows me to manage AVD's. I have created an AVD with Android 2.3.3 and start this from the AVD manager. Any other version of Android is too slow to be practical for testing in the emulator. There is also a newsletter, which explain how to set up an emulator in VirtualBox.

They have tried to really making installation idiot proof, in doing so
they install the sdk in the Library directory by default and there is no
option to change it.

creating the alias seems to get livecode to build to run cleanly. I am
trying to figure out how to set up the emulator now..
One step at a time.    I just got a new Android Phone yesterday.
Watchout!   I am going to be dangerous soon.  ;-)

Hi Mike,

Can't you install the SDK in the Applications folder? If not, execute
this in the terminal:

ls -s /User/mike/Libraries/Android/sdk /Applications/Android/Android_SDK

You may need to use sudo:

sudo ls -s .......

Now you can navigate to the Android_SDK folder in the Applications
folder from within LiveCode.

enter this path into the mobile preferences section.   Can any one
provide me with some guidance?   I filled a bug report, but I need a
work around.

Thanks
