∟Installation of Android SDK R24 and Emulator

Time (Zone) Information Sources in Cars. Android devices manage time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) at the system level, apply the desired time zone, and then convert the value to local time for display to users. The current user's zone ID (often referred to as Olson ID) is stored as a setting. For example, Europe/London. The emulator comes ready to use out of the box, and runs Android 6.0.1, which may not be a very new version of Android, but it’s still better than what most emulators on this list offer. KOPlayer features most of the things you’d find in other emulators, but not all, and it lags behind when it comes to things like snappiness, though not.

∟Android Emulator Built-in Web Browser

This section provides a tutorial example on how to use the Android emulator's built-in Web browser to visit a web page. You need disable the cable LAN driver, if you are using Wi-Fi.

• Get the fastest and smoothest gaming performance with BlueStacks - the world’s most popular, safest and FREE Android emulator for Windows and Mac. Trusted by over 500M gamers.
• Android developers have been able to use the Android emulator, which comes with the Android SDK, to test their applications from the comfort of their development environment. Over time, and many revisions, the emulator has both improved in the features the tool offers, and become bogged down with significant performance problems.

To the test emulator, let's use its browser to visit my home page.

1. Launch the Android emulator and unlock the screen.

2. Click the Browser icon and enter 'herongyang.com' using thekey pad on the screen.

3. Click the enter key.After some time, the browser returns an error message:'Webpage not available - The webpage at http://herongyang.com/could not be loaded because: net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED'

What's wrong with the emulator?Searching the Internet, I found a post on stackoverflow by Vaughn(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2039964/how-to-connect-android-emulator-to-the-internet), which suggests to disablethe network cable port, if you are using a Wi-Fi connection.Because the emulator is trying to obtain DNS service from the cable port.

4. On Windows 7 system, go to'Control PanelNetwork and InternetNetwork Connections'

5. Right-click on 'Local Area Network', and then click 'Disable'.

6. Restart the emulator, try the browser again with http://herongyang.com/.Cool, the browser works!

As you can see, my home page is not responsive enough to fit in the 4 inch screenof the emulator. I still need to improve it.
