Hey Gregory, did you created a new device?

This error can point to so many different things, and there is many different fixes. See if yours match with one of the following

Problems with Eclipse: Clean project, rebuild project, restart eclipse. Invalid characters: Remove any special characters in Eclipse project name. Use only [a-z] and [0-9] not even [ ] (whitespace) Error in included jar: Try without jar and see if it runs, if does fix somehow. Errors in manifest package setup: Right click in eclipse on project -> Android tools -> Rename application package (rename to something similar, you can always rename back). Problems with device: Remove app from device and try re install. Rom issue: If you use custom ROM try to reflash to a new ROM. Debugging not enabled: On phone go to Settings -> Applications -> Allow unknown sources/enable debugging (this path can vary for different devices)

Hey Gregory,

Did you try selection the package with the left mouse button, then run as > android application?

This is the first time you try to load an app on the emulator or you already did it?

By the way, this should be described as an Android question, not JavaScript

:)
