I made changes to an app, just changing the icons. That worked, I was able to see the results when I launched the emulator.
I tried to create a new app but when I launched the emulator again I saw my previous app. I have tried to wipe the user data but it doesn't change anything.
Edit: I saw my previous app but the new app didn't appear.
I eventually deleted the projects, the source code and then restarting eclipse but I'm still having the problems. When I launch the virtual device again it's still showing the original app. I've also tried creating a new emulator as well but I have the same .
Anyone else having this problem or know what's going on?
P.S I also tried loading the Halo theme but it doesn't load.
(Using Mac OS X Lion & Eclipse Classic 3.7 (32 bit))
Did you change the name of your applicaition package to cause this behaviour?
Just uninstall the old app from the emulator.
Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> YourApp -> Uninstall

I am new in Android Studio. I am using Android Emulator for call rest API for my backend. Before, i scroll down basicly in main android page. But after i wanted to tried scroll down, as if i right clicked, Home Setting, Widgets and Wallpaper pop-up show me. What is the solution about that. I never changed any setting.
Thanks for reply.
It looks like your emulator is frozen. It happens quite often.
I would suggest you to try these:
Restart your computer and try to run your app in the emulator. After it successfully runs, now try to clear the app cache.
If that didn't help, create another emulator. I recommend to choose different device and API level than the current emulator device but it is not necessary. This should solve your problem.
Tips
If you want to clear data, clear cache, uninstall app, clear cache and restart the app and so many such actions from android studio without touching your emulator then you can use ADB Idea plugin.
For that, in android studio go to Settings -> Plugins
search for ADB Idea in marketplace. Install it.
You need to restart android studio.
To use it:
You can press shift key in your keyboard twice and search for Adb in search window. You will get all the options from the plugin
From android studio menu... Tools -> ADB Idea and then you will see all the options available.
I installed VS2017 a few days ago, created the simple app Build your first Xamarin Forms App, and now I want to debug.
I am having issues with the default Android emulator created by the VS2017 installation (Android_Accelerated_x86_Oreo) so I created a new emulator. This is the screenshot.
How can I change the default so it debugs in the newly-created emulator?
I wanted to point out that I'm new to all of this, so I would like to run it without having to install anything else. I would like to see something run before I install anything else.
I also wanted to point out that I've tried clicking on "Start" on either one of them when not in debug mode, and I get Could not start emulator. Unable to load DLL 'DismApi' error.
The only way it automatically starts is if I hit F5 and the emulator window pops up. Then I go to Tools > Android Device Manager and the default emulator says "Stop" (it's running). If I click on "Stop" and then press "Start", I will get the same error again: Could not start emulator. Unable to load DLL 'DismApi'.
Where you launch the debugger just click the arrow pointing down to open the dropdown. Then select you new device. It will stay as you default device. Please see the image for reference:
Note: You may have to restart Visual Studio for your new device to appear.
I have only just started android programming, but I have a few basics programs working. Normally when I click run in Android Studio and choose my galaxy nexus as a running device, the app I'm running opens and is saved onto my device, so that I can open my program when I am not plugged into my computer.
However, now when I hit run, my program opens, but it is not saved onto my device.
This happened almost immediately after I changed my application label in my manifest file, but I'm not sure if that's related. Any help is appreciated!
Make sure that "deploy the APK" is selected in Run-> Edit Configurations
You have to set it at the new project screen. Its greyed out but theres a link next to it. Just click it. Its next to the Package name and that is the only .app extension you need to execute the apk.
I had the same issue. For me the problem was that the icon was not appearing on the screen but I found the app was actually stored on the device. I have installed NovaLauncher on a Meizu U20. I went to see the "Applications List" (tr. it. "Menu delle app"), I found my app icon there and I drag/dropped it on the screen.
I keep getting the message 'Activity not started, its current task has been brought to the front' despite making changes to the code. I wasn't aware of changing any settings in Eclipse besides creating a new AVD and it was working fine earlier today. Now it's not reinstalling at all.
I'm not sure why the problem started when it did but I installed some updates from Eclipse and Android and it seems to be working fine now.
There are several thing that you can do to solve this problem:
You can close your AVD and then start it again.
You can manually uninstall your application using AVD interface (Home - Menu button - Manage apps - All tab - Your app - Force stop/Uninstall).
The solution was to start the task manager and end multiple AVD emulator processes that had somehow built up.
i also constantly have this problem, even when i change the code. what helps for me is simply to start my application in the debug mode; then it starts without that warning. later when i start the application in the non-debugging mode again it normally starts without that warning (at least for a while).
I'm a newbie that needs some help on getting the AVD running with my app. I've been developing C code for decades, but I have to admit the Eclipse/AVD setup has me stumped! I'm following the 'HelloWorld' tutorials on the developer.android website (and some others) and everything seems to be working OK, up to the point where I try to run it on the AVD simulator. I'm not getting any warnings, the Eclipse build/run output window says that everything is installed OK and the AVD does startup and run. Eclipse says that my app is loading, but it never runs. All I get is the simulator window with "ANDROID" on the screen and the buttons on the right-hand side.
I've got Eclipse Indigo and r18 of the Android PlugIn (I tried to install Helios, but the Eclipse website directed me to Indigo!). Is Indigo OK for running the simulator, or do I specifically need Helios? I also have Java 1.7.
The API level I have installed is Level 15 (v4.xxx of Android, I think). Don't know if I need a lower version to get my tutorial app to run, but level 15 is the only one I can select when setting up a device in the AVD manager.
I've been trying to get this going for days, trying all sorts of switches and buttons, but to no avail. Before I start uninstalling everything and reinstalling, can anyone advise if there is anything I might be missing, or has tripped over this problem themselves and found a way around it? Something that always trips up new starters maybe? Or do I need to go back to scratch?
Any help would be much appreciated.
How long are you leaving your emulator running after you attempt to launch your application? The Android OS can take a long time to boot up in the emulator. If it's stuck on the "ANDROID" screen then you're either not waiting long enough or there's something wrong with your emulator. It should eventually boot into the normal Android lock screen or home screen just like a device.
You can launch your emulator ahead of attempting to run your app by opening the Android Virtual Device Manager (toolbar icon in Eclipse, if installed properly) and then selecting an emulator and clicking the "Start" button. If you don't have any emulators listed, then you need to create one by clicking the "New..." button.
