[SOLVED] Qt 5.1 Installation Problem (for Android)

mikeosoft

I'm not answering with any specific expertise, just my experience when I installed Qt 5.1.

This may not solve your problem, but hopefully it will move you further along.

In the QT folder you will find an executable called "MaintenanceTool" or I guess if you are on Windows "MaintenanceTool.exe".

If you run that you will get three options:
Package Manger (which lets you add and remove components) which includes options for Android.
Update Components (which is generally worth doing).
Remove All Components (which you probably don't want to do.

My suggestion is to make sure you have the Android components installed.

I can't help any more than that, my only Android development was a little playing in Java using Eclipse, that didn't amount to anything worthwhile.

You have a desktop project and probably didnt install the qt for android version

jdarnold

Yeah, you need to make sure you very closely follow all the instructions for getting Android to run. For instance, I thought I had the right JDK installed, but I didn't and it lead to all sorts of headaches. You're sure you have all the Requirements mentioned in the Qt Creator page?

jdarnold

BTW, your picture is of the Build, not the Run configurations. Click the Run button near the top, next to Build, to see the Android configurations.

Moster

As I already mentioned, he wont get any android configurations on his current setup. It is clearly a Desktop project, not android. Btw, the run tab is correct on the picture. Thats not build :P

Yes You totally right. I downloaded wrong Qt version. I download Qt for Android (Windows 32Bit)

When I debug the a example of Qt on Android for x86 (GCC 4.4.3, Qt 5.1.1), "Create new AVD" window appears. I write the name and I press the OK Button. I get the error text.
@compilation terminated.

My Android Settings

What should I do?

Moster

I dont know exactly if it makes any difference, but you are using the x64 android NDK and not the one for x86/32bit. You could try this one

You could also update your java version, more for security reasons :)

@Moster
You found a good point. I download x86 NDK and problem doesnt still solve

Now I can start the Android Simulator. But My program is not working on simulator. Simulator starts and only show the main android screen.

Dont you have a real device to test it?
The android emulator has problems with Qt.

How can I connect my android phone with Qt? I find something below. There is a page that explain how to do that but I cant do that.

Moster

What is your device? Maybe its android API level is too low.

kingsta

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2. My android version is 4.1.2. I download my computer the android 16 and 17 API.

Moster

The Qt project should be android level 16 then. 17 wont work.
Btw, you have for sure enabled usb debugging in the android developer options?

kingsta

Yes Usb Debugging is opened. I cant understand why dont we fix? :(

Moster

There might be a problem with your adb/usb drivers.

Can you open a shell/cmd, go to your android sdk folder, then platform-tools and type in "adb devices". Your phone should be connected. If it gets recognized, you will see the device there. If its not there, then there might be some driver problems.

kingsta

I got the text;
@List of devices attached
4df7... device@

Note: "..." means its continuing

When I close the Usb Debugging Mode on my phone, I got only "List of devices attached" text.

I guess driver has no problem. Am I right?

Moster

Ye, thats good. But do you know what I just saw? You are using android for x86 and not armv7. Your note 2 has an ARM cpu and not x86.

kingsta

You got good point. I moved the SDK and NDK to different folder. I changed android settings on Qt (SDK and NDK locations). I have a weird error. I got the error when I build. How can I fix?
