I know that this has been resolved but I thought I would share this link:

Solution One

Often times, this problem can be network related. Check if your network is behind a proxy. If so, you need to configure proxy on Eclipse. For that, go to “Windows” -> “Preferences” -> “General” -> “Network Connections”, and fill in your proxy info. Restart Eclipse after that. Conversely, it’s also possible that you have configured proxy on Eclipse before, but that you are no longer behind proxy. Make sure to disable proxy then.

Solution Two

Another solution is to clean up project-specific meta data directories which are stored under your workspace directory.

$ cd workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects
$ rm -rf *

Restart Eclipse.

Solution Three

Check if an adb process is running. If so, kill the adb process, and restart Eclipse.
