So I just attempted some sort of update using the SDK and AVD Manager in eclipse. I think I just clicked update all, and installed an update. After I installed this, I restarted eclipse, but when it started up again, I got an error message saying that I need to update my ADT to the latest version (14.00) and that mine is version 12.00.
But when I try to go to the SDK and AVD manager to update the ADT it says Location of the android SDK has not been set in the preferences
So then when I go to preferences and look at the SDK location it says This Android SDK requires Android Developer Toolkit version 14.0.0 or above. Current version is 12.0.0.v201106281929-138431. Please update ADT to the latest version.
Do I need to somehow manually update the SDK? I am not really sure what happened here. Thanks in advance for any help.
I recently had this issue and what I did was completely remove the ADT, SDK’s, tools, everything and then re-install and update. I did not have to delete Eclipse though.
EDIT:
Here is a link to the AVD revision information site. If you look at the different versions, it will tell you the required SDK tools version. When this happened to me, I remember it saying something like “if you have less than version 14 then you must update manually” … but I was unable to find it.
