I have came through an article about PHP development in Android. So I would like to make some PHP applications for Android but any one tell me How can I install Android Emulator in Linux????.I use Mandriva as my workstation.

You must first install the Android SDK. Then, launch the graphical updater and let it install all of the packages. I think there's like 8 of them. Once done, cd into the directory it's installed in (mine was /opt/android) and then cd into the directory "tools". The emulator is in there. However, I recommend you use Eclipse as your IDE for Android. It really makes it very easy and noob proof. All you need to do is click the "Run" button. You can find details on that here.

http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html - For getting the SDK installed and Eclipse set-up (omit eclipse part if you wish)

http://developer.android.com/guide/d...other-ide.html - For using the command line and a text editor of your choice

thanx a million and Happy new year!!!!

Not a problem my friend! I look forward to seeing your application on my Android device! Please mark thread as solved so others who have the same question can see this answer worked. Happy New Year to you as well!
