No internet connection on Android emulator

Question

When i use an AVD with Android 4.0.3 specified as target I can use the browser and view the pages. But when I use Google API as target I have no connection(i get the next error: "This application requires a working data connection"). I start both AVDs with the same parameters: C:\Users\blahblah\android-sdk-windows\tools>emulator.exe -avd AvdName -http-proxy http://123.456.789.123:5678 (Not the actual proxy adress =) ). What could be the problem?

Answer 1

Please check whether you can see the 3g symbol in the top bar. If not go to Settings> Wireless & Networks> Mobile Networks> and check whether Data enabled is checked, If it is not checked do it. Else simply press F8. Since you started the AVD with proxy address this must be the problem.
