    Hello all, I am very new to android development.I have installed AVD and JAVA SDK and able to run my test application on Simulator also. (As mentioned in the below link) https://sites.google.com/site/barbarahohensee/android-development-on-ubuntu But the issue is:It takes a long time to run on simulator. I am on my way to develop very few basic pages with buttons and textBox and in last payment option. I dont want to run simulator every time I want to check GUI. Please suggest.

        It's true that the emulator load very slowly at the first time, but that's it. You can reuse it from then on...

          Using a physical device to test your android app is another alternative.
