No marketplace application on the Android emulator

Question

I\'ve got the Android SDK downloaded, got a AVD booted and running, but haven\'t been able to find the Marketplace application. Do the images available through the SDK util

Answer 1

You can have a look at the Android source. Some of the "native" applications are included.

Answer 2

The link provided by Ham is for 1.5/1.6, from the tags below the article you can go to this page where you can find instructions for 2.2.

Answer 3

According to this article you can add the marketplace to your emulator. Don't know if this still works but could be worth a try. Why do you need the marketplace for development anyway? ;)

Answer 4

This 2 part video walks you through how to get the marketplace and the gmail app onto an android 2.2 emulator: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe-jA3l3QNA

This link also covers it (http://anythingsimple.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-to-use-android-market-on-android.html) but I found the video to be a bit more useful.
