Re: [android-beginners] Re: Hello World / Emulator Problem
What is showing up? Is it the lock screen? If so, just unlock it and it should be there. It shouldn't go away until you press the back or home button. -- There are only 10 types of people in the world...

[android-beginners] Re: Hello World / Emulator Problem
The amount of time needed for the emulator to load will depend on your machine. At home it takes about 45 seconds, at school it can take up to 2 minutes. The size of the SD card specified will contribute to the loading time.

[android-beginners] Re: Hello World Emulator Problem - SDK 1.0 r1 Eclipse Version: 3.4.1
Resolved, kind of. The issue that is causing this is when i run eclipse, the DDMS perspective shows emulator-5554 in an offline state under the devices list. In order to get a new emulator instance running i have to first go to Run Configurations Target tab Manual radio button. Then when i run the project DO NOT click the emulator on the list, and select Run. This will instantiate a new emulator, and will run the project. As of now i can not find another workaround, or a way to delete this. If anyone has a solution to deleting an old emulator reference or knows where to find it (not in the registry, i checked) then please follow up.
