With phonegap the superior debugging tools were chrome remote debugging - only useable from Android 4.4 onwards. All my devices (tablets) were < Android 4.1. With Genymotion (android 4.4 + chrome remote debugging) you can put breakpoints in and change the DOM. You have the same ability as the ADT as creating VMs with custom OS versions and capabilities.

I found the emulator to be unworkably slow, although Genymotion may fix that (I've never used it). What worked best for me was just plugging my phone in and developing straight on that.

Yeah, it was pretty straightforward, compared with some of the toolchains. Some of the commandline processes may give you more control (adb, ant...). I was running phonegap apps from eclipse. This may give extra details: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/html5/articles/getting-started-with-phonegap-in-eclipse-for-android.html Searching the specific hangline might give you more precise direction: Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched. The ADT emulators are dead slow loading. Use Genymotion (for personal use); load a android VM _before_ a run in eclipse and the adt finds it...

Has anyone here managed to get the ADT (Android Developer Tools) and an Eclipse project running in an emulated device? I installed the whole ADT and latest JDK, generated a hello world project according to the steps here, but when I "Run as Android Application" the Nexus 5 emulator appears and it stalls at this line with no explanation: Waiting for HOME ('android.process.acore') to be launched... The Eclipse experience differs enough from Visual Studio to drive you batty. Greg K
