Hi, I am currently experiencing trouble running my app on the AVD with this message on the console: [2012-02-13 14:56:37 - buzzTouch] Android Launch! [2012-02-13 14:56:37 - buzzTouch] adb is running normally.

Thanks!

Try installing to your device. Fred

I am unable to use my USB connection at the moment, any advice to get it running using the AVD in the meantime?? Thanks.

Hi @yp2201, I've had this happen as well, and it's quite annoying! I haven't found the root cause, but a couple of things have worked from time to time: * Reboot my computer * Change the size of my AVD SD card to the minimum, which is 9MB. It seems that the issue is related to the amount of time it takes for the AVD to start, and it takes longer to start when it has to build a large virtual SD card. Since I'm not installing to an SD card, I just use the minimum. Wish I had a more definitive answer for you, but this is about all I've been able to figure out! Thanks, Mark

Hi Fred/GoNorthWest, Thanks for the tips! My temporary solution: I had to create the keystore and export the apk etc to test out the app on my device, and it worked! So I guess I'll have to use this method until the AVD issue of mine resolves =| but now that I have created the apk, am I right in thinking that I am still able to use the buzztouch control panel to make modifications, refresh on eclipse by re-downloading the source code, and keep testing out the app on my device as I have done already?? Thanks, Tish.

Hi Tish, Yes, you can continue to make changes to your app using the Control Panel, and see those changes refreshed on your device. You don't actually need to download the source code and create a new APK each time you make changes. You would only need to do that if you were adding some local content (a PDF or image or something stored on the device) that you would need to package up with the app. If all the changes you make are online - available through a URL or via a Custom HTML page - then you don't need to do anything but hit the refresh button on your app! That's the beauty of buzztouch! In the end, it's better to test on a real device than in the AVD anyway, so you can see it as a good thing that you can't get the AVD to work! Mark

yes, no need to re-download source code. Just re-export apk. Fred
