Android app not running(emulator not starting from eclipse) - java

I'm learning how to make android apps from the docs, and I downloaded and unzipped the ant bundle
I opened eclipse and followed the tutorial, but when I click on the run button in the eclipse toolbar, nothing happens(no window pops up and neither does the avd start up).
I have made an AVD(through the avd manager icon in the same toolbar) , as the tutorial says.
I also started up the AVD with android 4.2.
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit, if that matters.
Please help me run my app, thanks in advance!

Have you tried running the application whilst the AVD is up and running in the background?

Does the version of Android the app is built to support match that of the emulator. Ie. if the emulator if configured to support 2.3.3, and your app is built to the 4.0 API then this might happen.
To run your app directly (taking Eclipse out of the equation). You can issue the following command from the command line (this is a good test to perform).
adb install yourApkName.apk

for context i'm new to android studio
so basically i wanted to learn flutter, so i installed it and installed android studio as well
but after i configured everything (SDK path and environment variables included) it still won't run any apps and the whole area is grayed out as you can see in the image i linked.

Android studio does not open

2021-04-11 Installed the newest version of android studio. When trying to start it splash screen apears loads up and then empty screen appears and after ten seconds it closes. Android studio icon disappears from the taskbar. I can see that android is started in task manager. P.S. Closing it and trying to run it again or running it as Administrator does not work.
I ran into the same problem upon upgrading my android studio. Something seems to be wrong with the process of importing settings and configurations from the old version.
Let's move the old configuration files to another backup location to see if it works. (we will not delete it, because who knows, maybe this is not the solution:) ). check these locations based on your android studio version :
for v 4.0 and upper:
C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Google\AndroidStudio 4.x
for lower than 4.0 :
C:\Users\<yourUserName>\.AndroidStudio
Just move the folder to another location and start the Android studio again.
If everything is as expected, a dialog should pop up asking for importing settings and configuration:
Select 'do not import', and you are good to go.

AVD Manager can't find tools\android.bat even though it's there

I've researched this on the internet so much and nothing I find is helping me out. I got the SDK manager to run, but when I try to run the Adroid AVD Manager, it doesn't run!!!!! Why?
It says, word for word,
"Failed to execute tools\android.bat:
The system cannot find the file specified."
Why can it not find a file that is clearly where it is looking?
PS I'm running windows 8, installed the latest version of the ADK.
The latest SDK has AVD Manager in the SDK Manager itself. Open SDK Manager -> Tools -> Manage AVDs
I was getting the same error and solved it by going to the tools folder (up one level in my case) and then running the android.bat file.
This then runs the SDK Manager and then follow Samarth Jain's answer above.
Make sure you have the sdk/add-ons folder. I created that and SDK and AVD Managers both worked correctly
I just copied sdk manager.exe and avd manager.exe from ..sdk\tools\lib to ..sdk
You may not have the correct permission level to run the program.
Try doing the following:
Right click
Run as administrator
The beat and working way to solve this problem is to download the ARM EABI v7a system image for your respective API level and also the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator(HAXM installer). After that you can run the AVD manager from the SDK manager and now select the ARM system image in the CPU section and now thw OK button will work. It worked for me and hope will work for you.

Android SDK and Eclipse Virtual device not launching

I have just installed eclipse with the andriod sdk. I have completed all suggested steps. When I attempt to launch the Emulator widows returns emulator arm stopped working can anyone help me with this I cannont test my .apk without it as I do not have an android device.
Have you created a virtual device or the emulator. m guessing u have not.
Start AVD manager,u can find it in the same folder where the 'android sdk manager' resides.
Choose the create new option and create a emulator. This will create the emulator and the applications that you write on eclipse will run on this emulator.
Note : the emulator will take a few moments to run, the first time. So don assume that its not working.

Confused... about HelloAndroid first app

I'm following the Android App HelloAndroid tutorial on http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/hello-world.html and I seem to be doing well so far. I got the SDK downloaded and installed, emulator works... I am using Android 2.2
it works.. but I do not see the text string... This is my first android app so I am doing something wrong.
Yeah, getting Eclipse to talk to the Emulator can be a PITA. If you can debug on an actual device, don’t waste your time with the emulator.
You can look in Eclipse’s console window to see what’s up. Chances are it has installed the package, but it never got around to launching the application. Press the debug button again to see if it works, or just launch the app from the home screen manually. Unfortunately this won’t connect the debugger, but at least you can use it.
I’ve struggled with this a few times and can’t come up with anything more conclusive than “delete your emulator image and try again” or “restart Eclipse to see if it works this time”.
try the following:
unlock the emulator. if do not show text. restart the emulator or try the code
TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textview1);
tv.setText("first app");
....
Based on your screenshot it looks like an error occured while installing the app, you could try to install the app via adb. It's in ANDROID_SDK_FOLDER/platform-tools/ in the current sdk or in ANDROID_SDK_FOLDER/tools on the old version, where ANDROID_SDK_FOLDER is the folder where you placed your sdk. With the emulator open, use:
adb install path_to_the_apk_folder/HelloAndroid.apk
You can usually find your apk on the bin folder of your project.
Even if it doesn't work adb can give you more information about how to handle the problem.
You could also take a look at the troubleshooting tips on developer.android.com. http://developer.android.com/resources/faq/troubleshooting.html#eclipse and http://developer.android.com/resources/faq/troubleshooting.html#noapp might be relevant.
