Eclipse Android X86 Cannot connect to 127.0.0.1
<p>Running Eclipse Build id: 20110615-0604</p>

<p>Android SDK &amp; AVD Manager (setup in eclipse)</p>

<p>Android X86 2.3-RC1.eeepc.iso</p>

<p>Oracle VM VirtualBox Version 4.1.2.r73507 (installed and running android)</p>

<p>In the VM using Alt F1 and the command netcfg produces:</p>

<pre><code>Android root@eeepc:/ # netcfg
lo UP 127.0.0.1  255.0.0.0  0x00000049
</code></pre>

<p>The path for Android is set in eclipse to C:\android\android-sdk</p>

<p>In the tools directory I use the command 'adb kill-server'
I then use <code>'adb connect 127.0.0.1'</code> which produces:</p>

<pre><code>unable to connect to 127.0.0.1:5555
</code></pre>

<p>I have a virtual device setup already in Eclipse using the AVD manager and this works perfectly - though very slowly, hence the need to use X86.</p>

<p>When the working emulator is running the command <code>'adb devices'</code> produces:</p>

<pre><code>List of devices attached
emulator-5554 (the slow emulator)
</code></pre>

<p>When the slow emulator is running and I then use the command <code>'adk kill-server'</code> and use the command <code>'adb connect 127.0.0.1'</code> it produces:</p>

<pre><code>C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools&gt;adb connect 127.0.0.1
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
connected to 127.0.0.1:5555
</code></pre>

<p>So then I go back to:</p>

<pre><code>C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools&gt;adb kill-server

C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools&gt;adb connect 127.0.0.1
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
connected to 127.0.0.1:5555

C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools&gt;adb devices
List of devices attached
emulator-5554   device
127.0.0.1:5555  device
</code></pre>

<p>But the new X86 device, presumably at <code>127.0.0.1:5555</code> doesn't appear in the <code>AVD manager</code>. Should it? I'm stumped.</p>

<p>I've googled everywhere so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.</p>
