Segmentation Fault in eclipse - android

I am developing for Android using the adt bundle. When I deploy an app to a device I get a segmentation fault:
[2013-01-18 23:24:24 - test2] Android Launch!
[2013-01-18 23:24:24 - test2] adb is running normally.
[2013-01-18 23:24:24 - test2] Performing com.example.test2.MainActivity activity launch
[2013-01-18 23:24:29 - test2] Uploading test2.apk onto device '99000083935364'
[2013-01-18 23:24:30 - test2] Installing test2.apk...
[2013-01-18 23:24:31 - test2] Success!
[2013-01-18 23:24:31 - test2] Starting activity com.example.test2.MainActivity on device 99000083935364
[2013-01-18 23:24:33 - test2] ActivityManager: Segmentation fault
I can move the apk to the sdcard and it installs fine, but won't deploy directly from eclipse.
I have tried updating everything and cant seem to debug the app. What causes this Segmentation Fault?

You can try this. It helped me to avoid a similar error. In particular, my problems stemmed from the fact that I omitted a second string in my Manifest
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">

I also had the issue.
Make sure your sdk and adt are of latest version.
If the issue still there then its due to the rom installed.
Some custom roms may leads to this issue.
Installation of busybox may lead to this issue.
Corrupted OS installation.
This can be solved by wiping all data and putting stock rom back.

Emulator doesn't start in eclipse

I've tried to find answers and similar problems, but nothing has fixed the problem.
I created a project and wanted to run the emulator to check if everything is working fine. But the emulator doesn't start up. It gives the following ouput, in console:
[2015-01-08 10:20:06 - MTNInfoHub] ------------------------------

Please help me.

Had this problem with Android Studio. To fix it, I just ran Android Studio as administrator.

Need help about android basic things that confused me for a few days

I'm a freshman for the android developing, and I met a question that confuse me for a few days.
I run the simple "hello world" code (I promise there is no error in the code, cause I copy it directly from the homepage of SDK), then the emulator runs but my app is not installed in it. and the console is like this:
[2012-06-12 23:05:50 - HelloPig] ------------------------------
[2012-06-12 23:05:50 - HelloPig] Android Launch!
[2012-06-12 23:05:50 - HelloPig] adb is running normally.

[2012-06-12 23:05:50 - HelloPig] Launching a new emulator with Virtual Device 'aaa'
[2012-06-12 23:05:55 - Emulator] emulator: emulator window was out of view and was recentered
[2012-06-12 23:05:55 - Emulator]
It just keep holding there, I think there should be something like installing app and success. I firstly thought the problem is eclipse cannot find my emulator, but there is no error. I have checked the build debug keystore path, it is the place where my emulator is.
I also have checked the environment variables, but I think there is no problem with them
(I can run java and adb in cmd)
I really have no idea, so could anyone help me?
following are the versions of the softwares:
jdk 1.6
ADT 18.0.0
SDK platform 1.5
eclipes java EE IDE for developers
Looking forward to hearing from anyone of you :)
I would suggest starting your emulator before trying to install your app. It looks like you are waiting for Android to start your emulator for you.
Otherwise there isn't enough information here. I would suggest running logcat (open a command prompt, and type 'adb logcat') which will give you more verbose logging information.
Post the output from your logcat (if your problem isn't immediately obvious).

failed to link /system/bin/sh CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE

I've been using the Android development tools in Eclipse to make a proof-of-concept app for my employer, to show them what our company can do with apps. I've got a long history of programming with and without IDEs; I've written several internal Java tools using Eclipse. However, I've never messed around under the hood of Eclipse or the ADT.
I was hammering away at the project this morning, and I changed one simple string in res/values/strings.xml. I didn't even change the length of the string, just changed two characters from "35" to "50". When I hit Run to see the changes, I got this cryptic message in the console output:

... and I'm stuck there. I tried some other projects that I know should work, because they've worked before, including the classic HelloAndroid project. All projects give me this same failure.
I didn't change anything in the code. It's like the ADT or Eclipse changed something for me and forgot to tell me about it. Any clue on how I can fix it?
System details:
Eclipse Indigo SR1 build ID 20110916-0149. Downloaded some time ago.
Android Development Toolkit version 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534. Downloaded on 6-Feb-2012.
ADB version is 1.0.29
Emulator platform 2.2 (API level 8)
Update before posting: I also have a platform for 4.0.3 (API level 15), and everything still works when I change the Run Configuration to 4.0.3. That's fine, but our customers don't run out and buy new Androids every month, so we need to run it and test it on API level 8. And like I said, it stopped working on API level 8, rather abruptly and not for a predictable reason.
As a proof of concept, this isn't looking terribly good. So once again, how do I fix it?

WAY late to the party here, but I've found that you can get this error when /system/bin/linker is deleted from your Android device. (In my case, I was trying to update linker at runtime). A missing linker seems to throw this error on every executable, not just sh. In my case, I was able to restore /system/bin/linker with adb push, but the device still continued to have problems, and ultimately, completely re-flashing the OS was the only solution I found that worked.

cannot start Android emulator on Eclipse even though there are no errors

I'm trying to run one of the Android sample apps in Eclipse. I've been through all the possible errors, and now I was finally able to run without any of them. But still, nothing works, and the emulator just has the "android" sign shining on it.
The log I have is:
[2011-12-26 21:18:50 - AccelerometerPlayActivity] ------------------------------

I already changed the configuration of the AVD, created a new one, etc. Nothing seems of any help
Does anyone have any idea?
Thanks
I would try to 'downgrade' the emulator.
I'm assuming you aren't programming for the newest android 4.0+ or something like that,
(Samsung galexy s is 2.0 or 2.2, I think).
When I had that problem it helped me alot.
try it :)
I had similar problem a long time ago. Make sure that path to your android sdk (or adb) doesn't contain any national symbols (cyrillic in my case) except English.
If you using Windows, also check your profile name.
Wait a little more.... in some computers, the emulator wait up to 10 minutes to run first time. Its a lot of time, but, next compile time, donĀ“t close it, just clear proyect, build all and run, and it will work.

Segmentation Fault when deploying to handset

I've got a Galaxy Nexus and today it started to give me a Segmentation fault error when deploying to it:
[2011-12-07 16:19:17 - Flinders Lite] Android Launch!
[2011-12-07 16:19:17 - Flinders Lite] adb is running normally.

I can open a shell in to the handset and can navigate the directory structure and the phone seems to be operating normally otherwise.
Does anyone know what is going on? How do I fix it?

Have you updated the Android SDK / ADB / Eclipse recently?
I had a similar problem after an update due to inconsistency between versions.
The problem was corrected after forcing eclipse to check for updates (and install them) of anything that I had installed.
Reflashing the stock image, using tools from the superboot from modaco worked. I used the 4.0.1 (ITL41F) version as this includes the recently released volume bug fix.
I also had the issue.
Make sure your sdk and adt are of latest version.
If the issue still there then its due to the rom installed.
Some custom roms may leads to this issue.
Installation of busybox may lead to this issue.
Corrupted OS installation.
This can be solved by wiping all data and putting stock rom back.
