The newest Android ADT update ruined my life. Is there any way to download and install the old ADTs (before 14) to a clean Eclipse install? I didn't find the file anywhere.

EDIT: I don't need this one anymore but if somebody knows the answer, go on and say it.

I also made the mistake of upgrading to the latest ADT. Heres a quick way to get your old one back.

  1. Head over to http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html#notes and pick which pick which version you want to use again.
  2. Create your download url: http://dl.google.com/android/ADT-##.#.#.zip. Google uses the version number for the downloads, so if you need 10.0.1, your download would be http://dl.google.com/android/ADT-10.0.1.zip.
  3. Uninstall the current ADT version in Eclipse.
  4. Install the new version as an archive!
