Still in the android tool, click on Virtual Devices on the left, and then click New. Select Available Packages, pick some platform versions and install. To install platforms run the android command located in the tools folder of the SDK (use Terminal.app on a Mac, or the Command Prompt on Windows, Linux folks you know what to do :). Step 3 - Install Android PlatformsДЄt this point, I tried running the emulator command, but the SDK doesn't contain any Android Platforms, the Android platform is essentially Android OS, you need to install at least one version (eg 1.6, 2.1, 2.2, etc) to run the emulator. Since we are using the command line you might find it useful to add the android-sdk- platform/tools folder to your system path so you can run the android commands from any folder. I placed the android-sdk-mac_86 folder in my /Applications/ folder, but you can put it wherever you want. Step 1 - Download the Android SDKДownload the Android SDK, and unzip it somewhere. If you follow the above steps correctly, you should have the T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE ready to run on your Windows PC or MAC.

Also, I'm using a Mac, but I think the steps should be pretty close if you are running Windows or Linux. If you do not want to download the APK file, you can install T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE PC by connecting your Google account with the emulator and downloading the app from the play store directly. I should mention that there is also an Eclipse Plugin for Android Development as well that you can use instead.

So I thought I would give a quick and easy guide for folks to follow, that might be interested in getting started with Android Development and running the Android Emulator. I am in the process of building some mobile apps for one of my clients, and while I'm pretty familiar with running the iPhone simulator and building iPhone apps, I'm pretty new to the Android development tools at this point.
