How Create AVD for Samsung Galaxy Tab



1. Open the Android AVD and SDK Manager 
2. Select Available Packages in the left panel of AVD Manager.



3. Click “Add ADD-on Site” and enter the URL below.
http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/android/repository/srepository.xml 




4. Check Samsung GALAXY Tab Add-on packages and click install button.
5. Check Samsung GALAXY Tab Add-on license & Click install button.
6) After downloading and installation of GALAXY Tab Add-on, you should restart ADB (Android Debug Bridge) or Eclipse.


The important specs of this device, from an Emulator perspective, are:
  • Target platform: Android 2.2, Galaxy Tab
  • Screen Info: High Density, despite the fact that it’s not, this is what it reports, WSVGA (1024×600)
  • No keyboard
  • Has dual cameras
Let’s create an AVD configuration called GalaxyTab:
  • Within Eclipse, launch the Android SDK and AVD Manager
  • Select “Virtual Devices” from the left-hand options
  • Click the “New” button to create a new AVD configuration
  • Name the AVD: “GalaxyTab”
  • Select the Target: “GALAXY Tab Addon (Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.) – API Level 8”
  • Input the SD Card Size: “2048 MiB” (or a suitable value for your uses)
  • Keep the default Skin Details: “Default (GALAXY Tab)”
  • Keep the default Hardware Property for Abstracted LCD Density: “240” (despite the real density being 170dpi)
  • Also leave the rest of the default hardware properties alone
  • Add a Hardware Property for Device ram size: “512”
  • Save the AVD



And output is as shown below:

    Hi,

    I use eclipse build v22.0.5-757759 and there is a separate AVD Manager , not "Android AVD and SDK Manager", so I tried the following steps:

    1.Open Android AVD Manager
    2.Tools->Manage Add-On Sites...
    3.User Defined Sites tab->New->enter the URL: http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/android/repository/srepository.xml

    After that I checked the Official Add-On Sites tab and Extras node in packages window, I found no Samsung GALAXY Tab Add-on packages.

    Could you kindly help me to solve this problem?

Android Material Design (with Design support Library) - 4

Introducing  Design Support Library  , to use Material design component in older version API - android 2.1 and above.  You’ll find a navigation drawer view, floating labels for editing text, a floating action button, snackbar, tabs, and a motion and scroll framework to tie them together. I have used my previous example, so its easy for demonstrate.  Note: Update your Android SDK support  repositories, support library if not updated i  used compileSdkVersion 'android-MNC' for Android M but you can change it to build in older API add  dependencies in build.gradle file compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.0' compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.0' start with  navigation drawer , its very easy to use lets, design for drawer <android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://
