Re: emulator

 

Hello Nekhelesh, Thanks so much for answer.

I also have an instance with the rc-proposed facing the same issue.

Create another instance with devel-proposed and the emulator never show the
UI.

Its really hard to develop an app for this OS if you can use the emulator,
the developer team should take more care on this, not every one has the
money to buy a phone.

Again Thanks so much for answering.
