25<p>This document provides information about Android platform releases. In order to compile your
26application against a particular platform release, you must download and install the SDK Platform
27for that release. If you want to test your application on an emulator, you must also download at
28least one system image for that platform release.</p>
29
30<p>Each platform release includes system images that support a specific processor architecture,
31such as ARM EABI, Intel x86 or MIPS. Platform releases also include a system image that contains
32Google APIs. The <a href="{@docRoot}tools/help/sdk-manager.html">SDK Manager</a> lists available
33platform system images under each platform version header, for example:</p>
34
35<ul>
36  <li>ARM EABI v7a System Image</li>
37  <li>Intel x86 Atom System Image</li>
38  <li>MIPS System Image</li>
39  <li>Google APIs</li>
40</ul>
41
42<p>To determine what revisions of an Android platform you have installed, refer to the
43<em>Packages</em> listing in the Android
44<a href="{@docRoot}tools/help/sdk-manager.html">SDK Manager</a>.</p>
45
46<p class="caution"><strong>Important:</strong> To download the most recent Android
47system components from the Android SDK Manager, you must first update the SDK Tools to the
48most recent release and restart the SDK Manager. If you do not, the latest Android system
49components will not be available for download.</p>

548<h3>Emulator Skins</h3>
549
550<p>The downloadable platform includes the following emulator skins:</p>
551
552<ul>
553  <li>
554    QVGA (240x320, low density, small screen)
555  </li>
556  <li>
557    WQVGA400 (240x400, low density, normal screen)
558  </li>
559  <li>
560    WQVGA432 (240x432, low density, normal screen)
561  </li>
562  <li>
563    HVGA (320x480, medium density, normal screen)
564  </li>
565  <li>
566    WVGA800 (480x800, high density, normal screen)
567  </li>
568  <li>
569    WVGA854 (480x854 high density, normal screen)
570  </li>
571  <li>
572    WXGA720 (1280x720, extra-high density, normal screen) <span class="new">new</span>
573  </li>
574  <li>
575    WSVGA (1024x600, medium density, large screen) <span class="new">new</span>
576  </li>
577  <li>
578    WXGA (1280x800, medium density, xlarge screen)
579  </li>
580</ul>
581
582<p>To test your application on an emulator that represents the latest Android device, you can create
583an AVD with the new WXGA720 skin (it's an xhdpi, normal screen device). Note that the emulator
584currently doesn't support the new on-screen navigation bar for devices without hardware navigation
585buttons, so when using this skin, you must use keyboard keys <em>Home</em> for the Home button,
586<em>ESC</em> for the Back button, and <em>F2</em> or <em>Page-up</em> for the Menu button.</p>
587
588<p>However, due to performance issues in the emulator when running high-resolution screens such as
589the one for the WXGA720 skin, we recommend that you primarily use the traditional WVGA800 skin
590(hdpi, normal screen) to test your application.</p>
