i am not getting internet access using android, how can i be able to
do that...plz give detailed explanation..

Hello Oleg,

Are you behind a firewall? I know there are also problems with the emulator when you are behind a proxy.
So let us know what you are behind.

I am behind a proxy!

Hello oleg,

If you are behind a proxy you need to setup Android to do one little thing to let the emulator know the proxy settings, this can be done by using the adb utility on the command line.

Ensure that the emulator is running, now browse to the tools folder of your Android SDK installation in your commandline and type the following:

Code: Select all

adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db ""INSERT INTO system VALUES(99,'http_proxy','[HOST]:[PORT]');""

Change the HOST and PORT values to the IP or host name of the proxy server and the port number of the proxy.

Now you should be able to connect to the Internet.

It works! Thanks!

what's host name and port number!
example to all please!
thx a lot!

Your proxy server's IP or HOSTNAME and PORT!
Example:
adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db ""INSERT INTO system VALUES(99,'http_proxy','195.15.3.2:8060');""
where 195.15.3.2 is proxy server's IP, 8060 is PORT

you can tell me how connect network without proxy. i haven't proxy . Help me!

if i config below:
adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db ""INSERT INTO system VALUES(99,'http_proxy','127.0.0.1:8000');"" then when connect return BLANK SCREEN.
where 127.0.0.1 is localhost

thanks a lot!

Are you behind a firewall?

Don't send proxy settings if you connect without.. I doubt your localhost will forward connections from port 8000. Step 1, reinstall android (make sure to remove your userdata.img ). Step 2) try to launch your emulator with your firewall off. warning this is a risk, but unlikely to get you 'killed' in a few minutes. If it does work then. Get your firewall back on and configure it not to block the emulator. If it all doesn't work, install linux, you won't need a firewall

What do you mean by step 1? Reinstall the SDK?
The reason I ask is because my emulator is not connecting to the internet, throwing a

Code: Select all

Network Error
Unknown Host

in the emulator.

I can see emulator.exe sending out packets across an open firewall connetion, but it's not receiving anything back.

I am not behind a proxy.

thanks!
