Unsolved What packages do I need to install
-
@tomy Yes you can keep those packages for 5.1.1 (or what ever minimal version you want to support).
I suggested x86 because it is faster when using emulator (faster because your PC CPU is x86, so the emulator does not have to translate ARM v7 to x86). I usually have both: x86 for testing in emulator and ARM v7 for testing on device. -

No I haven't said it. Please look. My CPU is x64 and my OS too.
As the last question, consider I choose those for
API 22
,21
and20
, do I need to install theSDK Platform
andGoogle APIs
of those versions/APIs too? -
@tomy I know that you have x86_64 CPU, not sure why you keep saying it (x86_64 CPU can execute x86 code natively - this is how 64bit Windows is executing 32bit software).
Regarding your question: do you need those older 20/21 APIs? You need to decide which minimal Android version you want to support, I cannot do it for you. -

Because you insist on that I have x86 (making that assumption I don't have x64).
(x86_64 CPU can execute x86 code natively - this is how 64bit Windows is executing 32bit software).
Of course, it's true.
Thanks for the time you dedicated for helping me. I will choose one of your answers as "the question's answer".
But, sorry, you didn't talk about "SDK Platform and Google APIs". -
@tomy OK, it was a misunderstanding - I usually just say x86.
You need SDK Platform and Google APIs for minimal Android version you're going to support. -
Thank you.
Apparently I can't choose one of the answer as the "question's answer"! I make the thread solved. -
Hi,
You can do it from the vertical three dot menu when the thread is not yet marked a solved.
Or if you already marked it as solved, you can undo that and then select the answer that you deem to be the correct answer.
-
Hi SGaist,
And the which should be picked?
-
First mark your thread as unsolved in with the "Topic Tools" and then you'll have an additional entry in the three dot menu.
-
I did it but I don't have that option still!
-
Even after reloading the page ?
-
Yes. So I mark it as solved for now.
-
The issue is solved but one question is remained! :)
There are two folders on the
SDK Manager
window, namedTools
andExtras
. I was not sure but installed only these 6 items:And this one can't be uninstalled!
Apart from those I have installed from previous posts here and these ones, do I need to install, for example, more
Android SDK Build-Tools
too, please? -
AFAIK, only the latest is needed usually.
-
@SGaist
Do you mean "Broken source Package" from Extras folder?
If so, I will uninstall the Tools packages all. -
Here are the complete screenshots. Do I need to install any of the "not installed" of the followings?
First the
Tools
folder:And the
Extra
folder: -
I was talking about the build tools. Either there was a glitch when I saw your answer but I didn't had the part about the "Broken Source Package"
-
Yeah, you are right; it happens for me too.
So the answer is: I need to only install "Android SDK Build-tools (Obselete) Rev. 17" as well, yeah? -
AFAIK, no, you don't need to have every version of the build tools installed.
-
OK, so I leave it as it is, without any change.
Thanks.
