Warm Greets Gents,
Well I am writing on android app as a project in mobile computing. I
am working with eclipse pulsar and I have downloaded several sdk
platforms namely 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, etc. The only program I have
successfully run is the Hello world program.
All the code samples in the android sdk of all the platforms seem not
to be working. I always run configurations with a complimentary avd. I
also take care to specify the <uses min sdk> just below the </
application> element. But all the sample codes in the sdk I try to
test seem not to be working..even after the avd has uploaded and
installed the service and activity file meant for execution. For
instance if I load Contact Manager from existing sample with sdk 2.1,
on running the compiled app, after I type add_contact into the avd, it
reads error.The same goes for accellometer, and other samples. Please
can any 1 tell me precisely what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks in
advance.
Here's my src:
package com.example.helloandroid;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Hello_Android extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
here's my main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
android:id="@+id/textview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Here's my string.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<resources>
<string name="hello">Hello World, Hello_Android! I belong to Jesus!</
string>
<string name="app_name">Hello, Android</string>
</resources>
Here's what I have in my console for the hello_world:

Besides this hello world, nothing seems to run perfectly from the sdk
2.1
Take for instance the ContactManager sdk in ver 2.1. I loaded the sdk
either by importing, or from existing. After creating the run
configurations from the run menu, I ctrl+F11 and below was the console
out:
[2011-03-29 15:04:53 - ContactManager] ------------------------------

com.example.android.contactmanager.ContactManager on device
emulator-5554
It hangs here forever..until I press menu on the avd, which then
prompts by listing saying "Sorry! Application Keyboard in
process.com.android.inputmethod.latin) is not responding {force close,
Wait}
After this stage the contactmanager application launches only for me
to fill in the contact details then another error reads "The
Application ContactManager {process
'com.example.android.contactmanager', has stopped unexpectedly. Please
try again. (force close)" . At this stage I am left with clicking
force close and it returns back to "show visible contacts only. Add
Contact"
