today I noticed something wired. I have got an Emulator Device running a resolution of 1440x2560. I was developing most of the time on this Emu Device and today I plugged in my cousins Galaxy S7 Edge, which has the same resolution, but I noticed that there was less screen space LOL I know it sounds stupid, but I know for sure because my Admob Ads weren't showing up anymore, and I saw that they didnt have enough space (width,height) to show up. After changing some width & heights settings inside my code the Ads did show up again, but this had me seriously confused. How could this even be possible? The Emu Device has the exact same screen resolution, the same Android Version (Marshmallow). Why would I have more space inside the emulator and less on a real device? Anyone noticed something familiar?

I'm developing an app with cordova (hybrid) and the screen gets blurry sometimes for no appearant reason.
This usually goes away when I tap the screen in a random place inside the div or element that is blurry.
Blurry:
=============================================
Clear:
The application gets blurry only while remotely debugging the android device. So it isn't an issue or some error. Blur goes away either when tapping the application or by disconnecting the device from the computer.
I'm following an android development course on Udemy. As I have an AMD processor, I have to run an emulator with ARM image. I'm running a nexus 5 emulator that way. It is super slow but it is working.
However, I can't drag or edit anything in real time on the emulator. The instructor video has him dragging the text box, changing the size and style of the text etc in real time. I can't do that on the emulator.
Is there a work around this or am I missing something?
I'd like to be able to do this http://imgur.com/a/sQD6N
At this moment emulator is no different from testing on a physical device, I do have an android phone.
Thank you for your help
When I open the android emulator, it stays on a black screen.
The app I'm testing is small and basic.
I have the arm* type downloaded, and I set it to 300 RAM, but still nothing.
Emulator have many issue if you want good & fast emulator then uses genymotion Download from link https://www.genymotion.com/#!/. you will get different type of device and fast devices then emulator.
I have two devices in my GenyMotion application. One is nexus 7 4.2.2 API. The other is a saumsung galaxy s4 4.3 API. The nexus emulator starts up fine and works well. However when I tried starting the s4 emulator, the android loading screen doesn't even show up, all i get is a black screen. When I go to DDMS, the devices tab tells me that the samsung galaxy s4 is online and debuggable. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? It make more sense if both show a black screen but why does one show a black screen and the other doesn't. I don't see anything out of the ordinary in the console.
I just tested this, and notice the blank screen is due to Genymotion version mismatch. Once i downloaded the latest genymotion (v2.3.0) , i was able to see Galaxy S4 startup properly.
If you do not see the navigation bar, you can manually enable it in Configure virtual device, see below.
this worked for me : In Configure Virtual Device (as shown in ashoke's answer) I changed Screen size to one of predefineds resolutions.
Hi have a problem running my software on the samsung galaxy tab.
Sometimes (but not always!) areas that are rendered transparent look garbled. I have attached an image showing a screen capture done on the device, which looks perfect for a strange reason, and a photo that shows the garbled half transpaent black box.
Has somebody an explanation for this effect or can somebody point me in a direction - I really don't know where I should start searching since the same software runs flawless on a galaxy s2 and on all IOS devices.
Perhaps somebody here has seen somthing similar and knows reasons that might lead to artifacts like these.

The problem seems to be the device itself.
Sometimes if you turn the device on, you see a garbled screen befoer the samsung logo appears. Then this effect shows whenever running the software.
If the device boots without a garbled screen, everything is fine.
