test app in eclipse and the emulator shows nothing. I click run as with no errors and it just sits there. What are the basics i need to know with starting an android app.
The basics people.
That is pretty vague, I'm not really sure where you are stuck at all.
Did you create a new "Android Application Project" in eclipse? There is an option to create an activity, running that should bring up a screen that says "hello world!"
Maybe you need to go to the launcher on the emulator and click the test app's icon to start it.
After having booted the emulator, right click on the project you would like to run, and go to the item "Run As" > "Android Application". This should be everything necessary to run a valid test app.
