I started to develop android apps a few days ago, but I'm stuck with this problem.
I'm using Eclipse with ADT and have created the simple Hello World or any of the other sample applications, and when I run the project, Eclipse launches the Android emulator but it shows only the skin, with the screen saying "ANDROID" and nothing else, it's unresponsive to anything I do in the code.
It happens targeting both 2.2 and 1.5 versions, why is this happening and how can I fix this?

Run your app on the emulator After you have created an Android Virtual Device (AVD), you can start the Android Emulator and run an app in your project: In the toolbar, select the AVD that you want to run your app on from the target device drop-down menu. Click Run.
If the emulator fails to launch due to the error vulkan-1. dll cannot be found , you probably need to update the emulator. To update the emulator in Android Studio, go to Tools > SDK Manager and install the latest stable version of Android platform.
If it's a white screen, it means it is loading. Before it happened to me, and I clicked on the white screen for some times, then it successfully loaded my project. It may be that your Project includes something that the Emulator is incompatible with (an extension for example).
An Android emulator skin is a collection of files that define the visual and control elements of an emulator display. If the skin definitions available in the AVD settings don't meet your requirements, you can create your own custom skin definition, and then apply it to your AVD.
The emulator will show "ANDROID" when it's loading. You will have to give it a minuto for it to start. If it does not start it could be cause for several reasons: for instance, if your computer don't have enough resources to run the emulator, or if there are internal problems with the SDK, etc. Try to run the emulator from the SDK folder and see if it works; if not, the problem could be your computer.
