Issues with Android Simulator
I'm having major issues with the Android Simulator. It was working fine before when I only had the 1.6 android sdk installed but now that I have 2.1 and 2.2 installed, it's very very touchy. It only loads up the simulator and launches my app maybe 1 out of 5 times. After it does successfully load, if I make a change and want to reload it, clicking the Launch button does nothing. I have to close out the simulator and the Titanium app then reopen it and launch again.
How long until the next Android simulator comes out? Are there any tips I can try? I've already reinstalled the Titanium app but it didn't make a difference.

When it fails, you need to be looking at the Trace level log to see if there was a build error or some other problem reported by the device. Occasionally, you need to force a full rebuild by
touching tiapp.xml. -
Here's one example:
