I could not run the android application never on my laptop. Eclipse gives same error constantly, that is "ADB server didn't ack"

When I manage to start adb server and re-open eclipse, as soon as I run the android application, same error comes to console; ADB server didn't ack.

Could you give an idea except restarting adb

You need to set the path of your SDK's adb into Genymotion. By default, Genymotion uses its own ADB tool (for many reasons). If the both binaries are not compatible (if your Android SDK platform tools or Genymotion has not been updated for a while) this problem happens.

To solve it you can define a specific one from the Android SDK. To specify a custom ADB tool:

  1. Open Genymotion > Settings > ADB.
  2. Check Use custom Android SDK tools.
  3. Specify the path to the Android SDK by clicking Browse.
  4. Click OK.
