I'm trying out the MoSync IDE (special version of Eclipse to develop cross-browser Android and iOS apps with HTML/Javascript).
It currently uses the standard SDK Android emulator which is rediculously slow. I found Bluestacks which is a lightning-fast android emulator.
I already found out how to use Bluestacks with Phonegap from within Eclipse (by using the adb connect command), but I can't figure out if it's even possible to test apps on Bluestacks from within the MoSync IDE...
Any ideas?
This works on Mac, and I see no reason why it should not also work on Windows:
Start Bluestacks
Run MOSYNCDIR/bin/android/adb connect localhost:10001, where MOSYNCDIR is your MoSync installation directory
In the MoSync IDE, click the tiny arrow next to the Select Target Device toolbar item and in the dropdown select Scan for Android USB device
If properly connected, a dialog pops up with a list of connected devices. Select localhost:10001 and click Ok
To actually run on the emulator, select a project in the Project Explorer (usually the leftmost panel in the IDE). Then click the Send to Target Device toolbar item.

I would like to be able to use WIFI to debug my Flutter app on VScode. I am using a mac and would not like to use the connection via USB
You can't debug wireless in Visual Studio Code with iPhone and Mac.
You should run your project with Xcode to use the wireless option, but after that, you lose the hot reload option.
So, it's impossible to debug an app with hot reload and wireless at the same time :(
To run the Flutter project with Xcode :
Open your project in VSCode
Click right on iOS folder
Select the Open in Xcode option
Xcode will run your iOS Runner
If you have any errors in Xcode - see this link from the Flutter documentation
All my old projects were able to launch debugging with Android Emulator. When I press F5, it will shows a list of installed Android Emulator for me to select for debugging.
But today, I have created a new project, and it launches debugging in Chrome instead.
First you'll need to check if the android platform has been initialized for the project. If you project has an android folder then it has been initialized, if you will need to create it with the following command: flutter create --platforms android .
To run the emulator, check the bottom right corner of the screen you should see the currently selected platform, if you click on the selected platform a pop up should appear allowing you to select from all supported platforms.
You can also you use quick-open (ctrl+p) and type in >flutter launch emulator, if no emulator is found it will provide you the option to create one as well.
Two months and no answer. Am I the only one having this problem?
Yesterday I downloaded and installed Android Studio Arctic Fox 2020.3.1 on my new laptop (Windows 10 64 bit, i7-8565U) and HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN!!
Android projects I have all tools, Flutter project missing emulator window, database inspector and profiler!
Android Studio 4.2.1 on Windows 10. Latest stable Flutter version.
If I create an Android project I have all tools: database inspector, profiler and the emulator window.
If I create a Flutter project I have no database inspector, no profiler and no emulator window.
Flutter doctor gives no error.
Everything worked fine until the upgrade to 4.2.1
What's going on? Thank you
I've had this issue and been following this question from the time you posted it. Finally found a solution to it on another SO question.
Solution: Enable the Android Facet It turned out that I had to enable
the Android Facet for this project:
Go to File → Project Structure Choose Facets Press the small + Button
at the top Select Android from the list Confirm your project by
clicking the project_name and press OK

I hope it works for you too.
If it's not showing then you can do one thing go to
Help > Find action or ctrl+shift+A > Then search.
Try Windows -> Restore default (Shift+F12 by default)
And also you can specify which windows to show: In bookMark View
I think you might rather have the PATH wrong (which means: using an outdated emulator),
because the emulator now resides in directory called emulator (which wasn't always the case).
This can be easily verified:
emulator -v
emulator: Android emulator version 30.8.4.0 (build_id 7600983) (CL:N/A)
If you'd get anything less than the current version 30.8.4.0 (despite having installed version 30.8.4.0 with the SDK Manager), you'd know what the actual cause is. Once having fixed the PATH, the proper version of the emulator should become accessible / usable ...and even an upgrade to Arctic Fox should then be possible, at least while the Flutter build.gradle scripts are compatible with Gradle 7.1.1.
Your workaround in words, you probably found this out, and did not bother to document it.
It is just for the next person :-).
Start your flutter app in debug mode.
Select your android folder in flutter project.
Right click -> Flutter -> Open in Android Studio.
Do NO upgrade Gradle Plugin, when suggested.
It might break flutter build and is not needed.
Android Window:
Click Debug Icon.
Wait a bit.
Click something in your app, so your db is active.
Android Window:
Click App Inspection at bottom of android window.
Result:
The Database Inspector shows up, and you can inspect db content in android window.
-- You have to switch between windows, and yes, it is a pain in the but.
-- Flutter plugin and Android integration is lackluster since 2018, but probably very hard to keep up with all that upstream in sync :-(.
Right, basically it doesn't work. That's it. Maybe one day it will. In the meantime I'm using AS 4.1.3 so that I can get all the available tools.
Remember to set environment: sdk: ">=2.12.0 <3.0.0" to have null-safety enabled and to go to Project Structure and set an SDK otherwise you'll get the old ADB.exe file not found when starting the Emulator which means also no Profiler and a bunch of other tools.
I use Mac OS 10.10, with genymotion 2.2.2 and virtual box 4.3. When I create ADV in eclipse to run app. It show normally in list deploy, but genymotion. although I ran it already, config setting...
This is a bug in eclipse - OSX yosemite, what you need to do is in the Android Device Chooser Window, try to RESIZE THE SERIAL NUMBER TAB and you will see the genymotion emulator that is running
If you don't see it, or the Android Device Chooser Window doesn't appear, check three things before running again:
Developer Options is enabled from settings (by repeated touching 7 times the build number in about phone), even though developer options is available in the list of apps in genymotion emulator
In Settings>Security, make sure "Unknown Sources" is enabled
Go to Run Configuration (for Android app), select the Target Tab, Enable Always prompt to pick device and hit apply.
Additionally I downloaded the jar files from Genymotion Download Page manually and replaced it in the plugin folder of eclipse.

I'm using Eclipse Juno (build 20120920-0800) on openSUSE 12.2 to code Android applications.
I have installed the SDK by uncompressing it into my home directory (if I install the SDK via YaST package I can't download stuff unless I'm root). I installed ADT from Eclipse Marketplace, configured the path of the SDK and configured a couple of emulator configurations.
I can run and debug fine on my phone, and I guess the same applies to my tablet even if I haven't tried yet.
The real problem is that I can't run the emulator. Clicking on the bacarozzo debug icon prompts me to run the application on the device but doesn't show me available emulators.
If I open the device manager I'm shown with the virtual devices I created but I can't just start any. The progress bar reaches the end, I see no emulator screen and if I try to delete the emulator I'm warned that the instance is running... (OK in the screenshot there is only one, I already managed to delete the other)
I urge to test some GUI features in an outdated version of Android. I have done all the field tests of the business logic code in my program on a JB device and I know for sure that code works on any device.
Now I only need to be backward-compatible with preferences and layouts.
How can I start the emulator in Linux?
Just by luck I managed to run the emulator from console
djechelon#RAYNOR:~/android-sdk-linux/tools> ./emulator-arm -avd Emulator_cell
It came to life and Eclipse debug is detecting it as active device
