Thanks for the reply, I appreciate any help on this. I do understand that the emulator doesn't use the machine's host file and that Android has its own read-only /etc/hosts file. I'm looking for an easier way to redirect google.com to my own fusion server that doesn't involve setting up a private DNS and using the -dns-server flag. Host files obviously make this simple. In pre r1&r2 you could adb push your own hosts file. This was obviously patched. So is the only solution to set up my own DNS? Has to be an easier way.
