Question

What do these error messages mean from the Android emulator?

Failed to create Context 0x3005

Answer 1

I too Had the same problem even if i have 512 MB of RAM. I solved by "Deleting" the older emulator and recreated the new emulator. Still i didn't know the reason for this issue.This issue is not yet closed by Google Developers . Hoping my solution help others.
