In my android Emulator , i am not able to config the Gmail Account details using Add account. If i clicks the button, there is no response from the Emulator.

I also tried accessing the Adding account feature using Intent (using StartActivity(new Intent(Settings.ACTION_ADD_ACCOUNT)) ). Even that is not opening the Configuration screen.

Please help me to fix this issue.

Thanks in advance.

    I don't think the emulator supports accounts and market – adarsh Dec 14 '12 at 10:15

  • You can emulate accounts, but you cannot use the account in real matters i believe. All though you should be able to connect to any Google Service, but your local account is limited and cannot register with e.g Google Play and such. What exactly is it you want to do? To test your application you need to push the apk to the emulator either from your IDE or CMD/Terminal. – Daniel Dec 14 '12 at 13:30
  • What settings did you specify for your emulator? i had a similar problem, but i changed my android version from 4.2 to the google api's 17 and it worked for me, try that – SamAko May 22 '13 at 15:03

This answer is a bit late, but i'm putting this up for posterity. I had a similar problem, it turned out that i had to use the google api's (17 to be specific) for the target settings when setting up the emulator, hope this will be of help to someone.
