@BillWoodrufff is now a Mentor, and I'd just like to say that it couldn't have been given to a better person!
Patient, calm, erudite, and knowledgeable, he should be an inspiration to us all. Particularly in QA. 
Well done Bill!

Congratulations, the only difference it makes is that you now hold its badge, too.

Well, it has some Privileges which a "normal" member doesn't get.
But it's a recognition of your contribution and "worth" to the site as well.

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

This post puts me at 50,000 points - I thought I'd feel pumped or something.
Now what? New account and start again?

Well - thanks for the bump.

Even I managed it, so it's possible without superpowers (unless being bitten by a radioactive teddy bear helped somehow)
You just need to remember that being rude to morons doesn't help anyone...but it's damn tempting...
Setting my email filter to treat all emails from He Who Must Not Be Named as "junk mail" helped keep me calm as well!

True. True. But I don't want to sacrifice my good looks.
Perhaps I'll feel better if I can create some fine alcoholic beverage derived from Tofu!

No fight - you go right ahead and ferment that bacon of yours. Chug-a-Lug!
I'll sit passively and remain content with vegetable-derived beverages.

OK, it didn't do much, just told me the screen size in internal units and updated it when the device rotated, but...
It's taken me two and a half days to get here, and I just wanted to share!

So you gave up on the emulators?

So sloooooow! Even using the x86 images, it's horrible!
I'm used to "F5"...app running.
Not "F5"...emulator loads...Android starts...still starting...go for coffee...still starting...eat sandwich...started! Loading package...read paper..."Hello World!"
I started using the "Windows 8.1" option instead, because at least it ran in human scale times, rather than glacial - but I wanted to try and check it on a real device.
And I need to deploy it for "real world" testing at some point, so I might as well get the pain out of the way now...

Do you have to start the emulator each time you want to debug something? Last time I tried something with android I could just use a running emulator and just push the app to it to debug. There was no need to completely shut down and restart the whole OS.

|
|
|
|
I tried that, but the second build failed because the target was in use - which I assumed was because it was still installed on the emulator, even if it wasn't running.
