Answer 1

The solution is to create avd with a command line.

android create avd -n GoogleTV -t 11

Where 11 is the api id. In your system this will be different then mine so first issue a comamnd

android list target

In my case it was

... id: 11 or "Google Inc.:Google TV Addon:12" Name: Google TV Addon ....

For convenience on linux you can use

android list target | grep TV -B 2

Hi marekdf,When i give android list targets i am not getting google tv adon itself i am just getting API 17 what would be the mistake can you tell me please – Godroon

Well you have to download it. Run android sdk and install Google APIs – Savadove

I have installed and it is showing in my eclipse workspace when i am create avd but not showing in command prompt. – Godroon

Perhaps you have to sdk(s) installed? Do you have a folder name addon-google_tv_addon-google in you sdk? In my case is /home/marekdef/android-sdk-linux/add-ons/addon-google_tv_addon-google-12 – Savadove

Answer 2

Run Android SDK Manager and install the image it wants.

The Api (13) doesnt contain the image to install that is the problem – Godroon

1. Download Google TV Addon API-13
2. Download Android 2.3.3 Intel x86 atom system image.
3. Enter the path which Android SDK installed. Do these things follow:
   • Copy ..\sdk\system-images\android-10\x86 to ..\sdk\system-images\android-13\x86
   • Modify the file sdk\system-images\android-13\x86\source.properties Pkg.Desc=Android SDK Platform 3.2 Pkg.Revision=1 AndroidVersion.ApiLevel=13
4. Restart AVD manager.
5. Create AVD follow Google TV document.

The emulator can power on. But the performance is so poor. It always ANR and force close. I suggest you do not develop on it.
