I am running Mac Leopard on 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook (with 1.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM). I am using Eclipse Helios with Android 2.1 platform with Android 2.1 Simulator. With even a "Hello World" Application, the simulator takes around 3 minutes to show the "Hello world" message..... what is wrong? How can I rectify this?

Compared to the iPhone and Windows Phone 7 equivalents it's takes forever to start up - is it realistic to expect this to improve over time?

Suppose I wanted to design a cheap little app which lets you schedule fake phone calls to yourself, along similar lines as this app:
http://magictap.net/fakecalls/
I'd imagine using an AlarmManager would be suitable for this purpose, the question is how to generate a fake incoming call screen, complete with the slide to answer call option. My initial approach, the AlarmManager should launch a PendingIntent. However, I'm not sure where to go from here, in particular to get an Activity started which displays the fake call screen.
After a round of hassle (many thanks to sontaikle), finally i managed to do some screen capture from my Android but right now I am thinking about this. Is there any way I can do a REAL TIME phone simulation on my PC. Its alike TV output from phone to projector (Galaxy S can do that) but I have other Android which have no TV output function from the phone, so I wonder if I connect the phone to PC and get the real time screen output (few second lagging is ok for me as well) to PC than I can project it out via projector during discussion, presentation. I have tried this Emulator, too bad its doesn't project that on the phone on PC. How to install Android SDK and play with Android 2.0 in the emulator - Android and Me
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering where files that are created while running in a simulator are stored. I'm running the 1.5 simulator on Windows Vista. The real reason I want to find the files is because I am downloading an png file and trying to create a bitmap via:
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(iconFile.getAbsolutePath());
However, the bitmap is always null. I am able to create a bitmap successfully if I have the file as a resource.
I am using the default simulator, Can I make simulator identical to some common device I mean one identical to HTC, one identical to droid motorla, one of samsung, dell, acer,..etc Here identical I mean all the features that it provide.

I would like to remove some of those apps (to reduce the clutter), but cannot figure out how to do it.

However, dragging the icon to the trash can seems to have no effect.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am building a application for the Android platform and I would like to use the accelerometer. Now, I have found a very nice application for sensor simulation (OpenIntents' SensorSimulator) but, for what I want to do, a would like to create my own sensor simulator application.
I have not found information on how to do this (I do not know if disassembly the jar of the Simulator is correct) and, as I said, I would like to build a smaller and simpler version of a sensor simulator, more suitable for my intents. Do you know where could I start? where can I see what are the pieces of code that I need to build?
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Hardware.Preferences.CONTENT_URI);
startActivity(intent);
When I give the above code to enable sensors they are showing errors

Well, now I have AI code which runs at ~10 MS standalone taking 300-400MS through debugging. A 40X performance loss is not something to cough at. Is it just me not seeing the performance loss previously, or has something broken?
