title: Android Emulator - offline to online mode
body: <p>Is there a way to bring android emulator from offline to online mode <strong>without closing AVD</strong>? 
  I tried adb's 'kill-server', 'start-server' commands but this just seems to re-start adb server (adb.exe process), the emulator is still in offline mode and 'adb devices' still show 'offline' state.</p>
  
  <p>Also can someone explain what exactly 'offline' mode of emulator means. 
  In my case - Emulator (standalone), daemon process and ADB server - all seem to be running. Why is emulator state still offline?</p>

  <p>Updating Question:
  I have tried 'adb reset' both from Eclipse &amp; command line that does not solve the problem. Issue seems to be more with Emulator Memory. Per my analysis memory of emulator keeps increasing and after a limit (~470 MB in my Windows) if you try to do a adb reset - it brings the state of emulator to offline and no more adb commands work. (also no network calls seem to be working)</p>
