b. Type “adb install OpenIntents.apk” to install. If it shows

your Emulator AVD is not matching. You need to use Google API’s target for your
AVD - this includes the Location libraries that are no longer built into the default.
c. Type “adb install OpenGLSensors.apk”.
d. Type “adb SensorSimulatorSettings.apk”.
e. Now the applications are installed in the Emulator.
6. Launch SensorSimulator application on the Emulator.
7. Enter IP address and socket (port) number into the emulator as shown by the SensorSimulator in the Settings tab.
8. Move to the Testing tab.
9. Press "Connect" on the emulator.
Note: The first time you connect to the SensorSimulator, all sensors are DISABLED
automatically. This is, because it is the Android application's responsibility to enable
the sensors before reading values.
10. Press "Enable sensors".
