Android L (Lollipop) - (Android 5.0) Developer Preview - Final APIs now available



Android 5.0 (Lollipop) is almost here and users will begin receiving device updates in November. To help you prepare, the Android 5.0 SDK is now available with final APIs.

Since the L Developer Preview began, various APIs and behaviors have changed, so if you've been using the Preview SDK you should update now to test your apps and take advantage of new features.

To get the latest Android 5.0 SDK:
Start the Android SDK Manager.
In the Tools section, select the latest SDK Tools, SDK Platform-tools, and SDK Build-tools.
Select everything under the Android 5.0 section, then click Install packages...
Accept the licensing agreement for the packages, then click Install.
If you previously installed the Android L Preview SDK, select all those packages in the SDK Manager and click Delete packages.


Now you're ready to develop and test on Android 5.0 with your normal workflow and begin publishing app updates to Google Play.
