Steve Miller Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 28, 2014 #1 I created an emulator AVD and it's running extremely slow. I click on things and they take forever to respond. Here are my settings: Device: 1024x600 ldpi Target: Android 4.3 - API level 18 Memory Options: RAM: 700 VM Heap: 32 Internal Storage: 200 MiB SD Card: Size 200 MiB Any idea why it's dogging?

Steve Miller Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 29, 2014 #5 I usually use my Samsung Galaxy Note for my work, but the tablet is bricked at the moment. It's a known issue with the Samsungs. They suddenly stop taking a charge and won't turn on. This is the first time I'm using the emulator and boy is it a dog! I'll take a look at GenyMotion and youwave. Thanks! Upvote 0

stevel05 Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 29, 2014 #8 If you use GenyMotion (or any other emulation software), be sure to test on a real device too. it is not perfect. I have stopped using it because of the crashes and inconsistencies. A real device is always the better option. Upvote 0

Steve Miller Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 29, 2014 #9 I totally agree. But, at the moment that's not an option. Not until I get my tablet back from Samsung. Upvote 0
