How do you install and earlier version of Android Tools and Platform Tools?


I am trying to get the android simulator working in Appcelerator's Titanium Studio on Windows 7, but it is not compatible with the latest Tools version (23) due to android issue #66740. However I can't seem to find a way to install Tools version 22.

I used the Google installer from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html

After installing if I run titanium setup check in the cmd window it says that the tools is unsupported version 23.0.2 and platform tools is unsupported version 20.

According to the Titanium Docs I need Tools version 22 and Platform Tools version 19. I can't figure out a way to get earlier version of either, I can only install earlier versions of the Build-tools and SDK.


Solution

  • Well, you could use direct link, like http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r21.1-windows.zip - here is tools revision 21.1 with platform tools revision 19 (if you will download revision 22, just change the number; it will have r20 platform tools). You could find more in official documentation of Titanium: http://docs.appcelerator.com/titanium/3.0/#!/guide/Installing_the_Android_SDK)

    Or, you could just use tool right in Titanium: Go in dashboard, in "get started" click on "Android SDK->Install or Update Android SDK", as seen in picture [1]. Then unhide settings, select empty folder to installing sdk, and versions of Android [2]. It will install, and it should work.
