I download the package from here: http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-GALAXY-Tab-Emulator which appears to be the emulator I'm looking for. The problem is that the instructions listed do not match with the Android SDK Manager that I currently have installed.

As such, I'm not sure how to proceed to emulate my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet and deploy to it.

    The problem is that the UI for the Android SDK manager is laid out completely differently from the one described in installing the emulator. I can't seem to adapt the current UI to the directions. – Thom Aug 07 '13 at 13:21

I am not sure if this will be a solution, for now I am not able to test it myself (have no sdk by my side for now). This tutorial from Samsung is from 2011, a little bit older and not adapted to the new Android SDK or Eclipse. So maybe You have to try following:

Extract the zip file, there must be a folder "skins" and a subfolder inside "skins" named "GALAXY Tab". Copy this subfolder to You android sdk directory:

/platforms/android-9/skins/

But check at which target API You would develop, the folder "android-9" depends on which target api You need.

Now, restart Eclipse if it is open, and open Your AVD Manager. Select "New", there must be a category "skins", here You should be able to select the added Emulator and then You could build a AVD for this Galaxy Tab.

Try it, if it doesn´t work, I will try later if I am at home.
