I am running NexusOne in an emulator, with Android 2.3.3 (sdk10)
My project was android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="10" , and when I try to run it on my nexusOne emulator (since 2.3.3.), It says that it is not compatible in the selection window.
If I try to set this as the preferred emulator in the settings, it will simply refuse to run and show a small warning saying that it is incompatible.
I tried to change the manifest even by reading android:minSdkVersion="3" android:targetSdkVersion="3" and all the same result ...
If I just select an emulator from the list without first selecting it, it shows incompatible, but works without any problems.
Any ideas why? (PS I have no idea why this empty space ... feel free to edit and delete :) the only thing in this white space is the footnotes of the image ... which should not be displayed)
Edit: I thought I solved the problem and wrote this incorrect answer while loading the SDK. But when it booted up and I created a new AVD using Android 2.3.3 (api10), the same thing happened. Studio photos say they are incompatible.
Android Studio installs its own copy of SDKmanager in a non-standard place.
The standalone SDK manager that I already had is located at:
C:\Users\You\.android
android studio is on
C:\Users\You\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio\sdk
But the AVD manager seems to store the AVD data in the same place, regardless of where the SDK manager is located. So, the studio SDK Manager uses, thinks that I am missing 2.3.3 api, but the AVD manager knows where to get to the right / previous place.
will just load the SDKs that I need in both places ... sucks so there is no symbolic link
