Hi Amira,

Could you please post some more information abuot the issue?

For example, are you testing on an actual device or using the emulator?

Could you share any error messages that appear in the LogCat or Console windows?

Without using any Esri pieces, can you run Android's HelloWorld in the emulator?

Are you set up to use the HAXM Emulator accelerator?

What are all your property settings when you use AVD (Android Virtual Device manager) to create the emulator?

I know its not 19 like you are using, but you might give it a try to see if you can get one working.

I use this list as my guide when building one. May be you could share yours too.

AVD Name: YourNameNexus7 name can vary
Device: 5.1�?� WVGA (will display nice and large)
CPU Intel Atom (x86)
Target: Android 4.0.3 �?? API Level 15
RAM: 512 (max allowable is 768)
VM Heap: 64
Internal Storage: 200M
SD Card: Size: 512MiB
Emulation Options: Check Use Host GPU (enable)

Please let me know what happens. Thanks!
