Android emulator

[moebius]

I properly built the android version of the .dat file, but after install it on the android emulator and trying to run it... I can only see a big white square first, then three little squares on the phone screen... nothing else. It doesn't run properly.
I tried using the default .dat included with geandroid... same result.

Any idea ?.

Your emulator must support opengl. Without opengl its what you get. Try newer sdk.

Thank you, akr.
It seems that android is my "pain in the arse".
Now when running app on emulator it crashes, and trying on a real device it also crashes.
I will re-install everything using another computer and I'll try again.

Using last Android SDK and a brand new i7 computer

INSTALL:

1) Download and extract GE Android:
http://game-editor.net/index.php/downlo ... ngine-beta

2) Download and install Android SDK:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

3) Download and extract Apache Ant:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programmin ... -Ant.shtml

4) Create setup.bat file inside geandroid folder:
set ANT_HOME=c:\apache-ant-1.9.0
set CLASSPATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_17\lib
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_17
set PATH=%path%;%ANT_HOME%\bin
set PATH=%path%;C:\adt\sdk\tools

5) From SDK manager install "Tools", android 2.3.3 and android 4.2.2.


BUILD:

6) Copy your exported geplayer.dat file to geandroid\assets

7) cd C:\geandroid

setup.bat

9) android update project -t 1 -p .

10) ant debug

11) copy c:\geandroid\bin\GEActivity-debug.apk c:\adt\sdk\platform-tools

12) Run on emulator
Start virtual device manager
3.2'' QVGA (ADP2) (320 x 480: mdpi) - Android 2.3.3 - API Level 10, CPU ARM, Emulation options: Use Host GPU
cd c:\adt\sdk\platform-tools
adb install -r GEActivity-debug.apk
run application from emulator

I ONLY GET A BLACK SCREEN
Tried Android 4.2.2... same

Hi!

I tried the same and if I check debug I can see that the game is starts and all the textures are created but at the display I only can see white squares.

Anyone an idea on this?


Edit 07/22:
I found that it works directly on the android device but only not works at an emulator.

Edit 12/2013:
another solution is to add
android:launchMode="singleTask" to the android-manifest.xml file


Thx
