Hi,
I am new to Android. I have downloaded and installed every necessary component in order to start working with Android. The issue I am having is that in Command Prompt, anything I type in related to the Android SDK (for example: adb, or even just android) comes back with "Java was not found in your path". Now, I have changed all my PATH variables under "User" to the EXACT locations of where these folders are, but no dice. It keeps telling me to go and edit my PATH variables. Even running SDK Setup, gives me the same error, and tells me to add where Java was found (even though I have!).
I am starting to get really fed up with this, because Eclipse can't find the "jre" folder inside the Java JDK, either (that is, of course, until I copy the entire jre folder inside of the eclipse folder, or put eclipse inside of the JDK folder)...
I just know it shouldn't have to be this tedious to set everything up and I would really appreciate it if someone can help with this
I am running Java JDK 1.6.0_21 (x64), Eclipse Helios (3.6) IDE for Java EE Dev., Android SDK Revision 6, all on Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
Something to note: I have not encountered any problems with Eclipse Helios and the ADT plugin as stated on the Android Developers website. I can use Eclipse and the SDK to create and run the"Hello, Android!" application on the emulators without issues. I just want to be able to run everything from the command prompt, too. Now, if I can only get my phone to be recognized after I get this resolved.
I also need this for rooting and unlocking the phone.

In the SDK tools folder go to libs and edit find_java.bat.
Change all instances of %PROGRAMFILES% to %PROGRAMFILES(X86)% .
I had to do this for my SDK.
Your java will probably still resides in c:\program files (x86)\java or the likes.
To test if it works open DDMS.bat(May need to open twice).
I ran "ddms.bat" before changing the "find_java.bat", and it just came up that it could not find the path > checking if it is installed elsewhere. I did what you suggested (I found three instances of where I needed to add the (x86)), ran "ddms.bat", and got the same error. However, this time it also opened the Dalvik Debug Monitor. Eclipse still won't run without its own copy of the "jre" folder from the JDK at the same folder level as the "eclipse.exe"...
any luck with this? I'm also having same trouble in Win7x64
Gonna give in otherwise n reboot my ubuntu system see if thats any easier
i know i can't use OpenJDK or something so ill have to swap that but fingers crossed

Solution
Install any JRE Java, Copy the java folder at program files/Java/jre6 Paste it inside MOTODEV´s folder program files/Motorola/MOTODEV Studio for Android 1.2/ and rename it to jre
Done
Edited the eclipse .ini works a treat now wi java x64...
time to whip out the olde java books from college an see if any of it comes back to me
Is it possible to install the android sdk platforms & extras offline manually, my only net atm is my desire tethered, unlimited data but I don't wanna push my luck
I'm not sure if it may be related or not but according to the android dev page, you should be using eclipse 3.5 because they have been having problems with 3.6
May or may not be related but worth a shot.

Make nu system path
Try making new system path named PATH (all caps). its an issue with Win7 64. Hope it helps. and yes Installing the Android sdk is a giant head****. I have it all put as fare as the link to abandroid put it doesn't make plug-in available in the plug-in list. I'm at a loss...
As i said, hope it works.
Having just had this issue myself on a new install of eclipse, the sdk and adt, here's what finally helped me: making sure the java\sdk1.6.x.x\bin directorywas in front of the windows\sys32 directory in the PATH statement of the environmental variables.
I did already add the JAVA_HOME and such, but the above was the step that finally allowed me to finish the setup.

I had to finally use JAVA_HOME C:/PROGRAM FILES/JAVA/JDK1.7.0_05 That finally allowed me to instal the Android SDK

Hi,
I'm new to android developement. To make it short. Our project needs to be ported for android. It has some java and C code. We run this java as applet using Oracle JRE in linux systems and using firefox browser.
Now it needs to be done on android and browser. Android doesnot support JRE. Hence i downloaded eclipse, ADT plugin. Added my java files, external JRE library and compiled it. Got the apk and classes.dex.
Now my question here is i'm not able to proceed further. How to execute the same as in JRE before. I'm totally confused. Running the apk in emulator/android mobile only runs the activity.java code. Say i'm printing hello world in that(i dont need that but still i have wrote it as my first program).
I dont know how to execute my other java files(which will run as java applet before in linux systems). I'm stuck here since i have not worked on android.
This would be the first step in to my porting.
Also the easy solution would be to run the applet.jar i have directly on android similar to linux jre. Is it possible.?
Any sort of help would be great. Thanks.
Hi,
I'm following this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863547 in order to be able to compile PA for my Nexus 4.
I get stuck at java 6 installation : as I'm using a Debian (jessie) as my daily OS, and trying to learn java, I already had it with eclipse and the command "java -version" showed me version 1.7 and openjdk 7.
So I anyway tried to purge java, this of course removed eclipse, and the next step in the tutorial explained how to install Oracle JDK. But I wanted to keep using OpenJDK so I just did a basic install of openjdk-6 with aptitude.
At this point "java -version" shows me 1.6, but... Installing Eclipse and its dependencies make java 1.7 and openjdk-7 come back...
There must be an easy way to solve this ?
Thanks!
PS : As you probably understood I'm using debian daily but I'm not yet a linux geek ^^
I'm trying to create an app for the 1st time. I've downloaded the Android Studio, however, whenever I try to launch a notice tells me 'The environment variable JAVA_HOME (with a value I cannot disclose yet because xdl won't allow me) does not point to a valid JVM installation. I've tried a few times to uninstall / reinstall both Java and Android Studio to make sure I have the latest version and I've re-entered the Java location by searching it's properties and entering them on advanced settings. Any help really appreciated
You need the Java Virtual Machine

Make sure you have the latest version of the JVM, which is the Java Virtual Machine. And I really recommend using Eclipse with the official SDK for making Android apps.
Hi. Can anyone tell me how to compile an android kernel in Ubuntu 16.10?
Upon compilation starting, there is a "make" error popping up about "Unrecognized option -EL", and the process is failing.
I've also tried the same in Ubuntu 16.04, and ended up with the same results.
For many days, I've stuck with Ubuntu 14.04 in Windows 10, a feature they introduced earlier in 2016, but I want a pure Linux environment badly and also, not that old 14.04.
So any clues?
I noticed the default gcc is 6.2 in 16.10 now(don't know if that's a problem though because I'm using a cross compiler)
Help please.
