I just downloaded the Android Studio. I am running windows 7 64 bit with 4 GBs of Ram. When I open the application it takes a few minutes to load the studio. It then loads to an error that says there was a rendering problem which I fix by changing the API from the drop down. I put 3 labels on the app and just wanted to see what that looked like so I tried running it. I ran it through the Emulator and after basically freezing my computer up and taking up to 5 minutes to build it works but then I see a blank screen. I don't even see my labels. So I tried running it from my phone and after a few hours I finally got it to where it would even recognize my phone as authorized. However, every time I try to run it it says the app has crashed before it even loads. I am using a Samsung Galaxy s3 so I tried it with API 17. So here are my questions.
#1: Why is this program soooooooo slow? I have changed the gradle to be offline. I have also added this line to the properties org.gradle.daemon=true and still it takes forever and almost freezes up my computer. #2: Why aren't my labels showing when I run it through the emulator? I mean that's about as simple as you can get and it isn't even working. #3: Why does my phone crash before even loading the app? I have 32 GB of memory on my phone via an SD card if that even matters. #4: Can this program really be as bad as it seems? I've been "working with it" about 3 days now and I can't get it to function properly in any way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
