Tinkering with Android: Hello, Android! Ü

Oh yes! Finally, I said hello to Android. Haha. :)
In my last post, I thought I was doing something wrong that's why I don't see the Hello, Android app working.

Thank you so much to this post from anddev.org, I finally realized that I just have to play around with the emulator much like anyone would do with the real Android phone. Hahahaha. I'm such an ignoramus. >.<

So here's what I did:

Wait for this loading screen to finish.

Tried clicking around this screen until I happened to...

Tinkering with Android: Help Wanted

I am attempting to study programming in android.
But as early as the Hello World app, I am already stumped. >.<


After following the installation instructions for the Android SDK (I installed Android 3.2 API Level 13), and ADT Plugin for Eclipse (my version's Helios), I then proceeded to the HelloWorld app tutorial.


The first time I run it, I got this from Eclipse console:


[2011-09-17 13:28:46 - Emulator] invalid command-line parameter: Files\Android\android-sdk\tools/emulator-arm.exe.
[2011-09-17 13:28:46 - Emulator] Hint: use '@foo' to launch a virtual device named 'foo'.
[2011-09-17 13:28:46 - Emulator] please use -help for more information


Apparently, the android sdk has a bug for paths which includes spaces. >.< My sdk is installed in "F:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\". So I manually changed the path from Eclipse in Window->Preferences->Android to "F:\PROGRA~1\Android\android-sdk\".


However, there is another problem:
[2011-09-17 13:58:23 - HelloAndroid] Automatic Target Mode: Preferred AVD 'my_avd' is not available. Launching new emulator.
[2011-09-17 13:58:23 - HelloAndroid] Launching a new emulator with Virtual Device 'my_avd'
[2011-09-17 13:58:55 - HelloAndroid] New emulator found: emulator-5554
[2011-09-17 13:58:55 - HelloAndroid] Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched...
[2011-09-17 14:00:14 - HelloAndroid] emulator-5554 disconnected! Cancelling 'com.example.helloandroid.HelloAndroid activity launch'!


So I tried uninstalling EVERYTHING and reinstalling EVERYTHING. T_T And this took almost like forever. T_T
