Getting Started with Android Programming, Try #3

I’ve been trying to get started programming in Android for a while now, but for several reasons haven’t really gotten to the level that I can do something useful. With the government shutdown I have some free time, and have re-engaged with the Android programming tutorials.

The one constant I have experienced is that the eclipse to emulator link is very flaky. The only time I have had success is by manually starting the emulator and running a command shell and running adb commands directly. Apparently whatever I am doing with Eclipse, it doesn’t start the adb server properly.

• adb start-server

• adb install App.apk
