    "Overhyped experiment"

    July 2, 2012  |  

    Pros

    Beats me, never worked.

    Cons

    Waste of time.

    Summary

    Installed, reinstalled, changed settings so many times and still nothing. Frontend crash over and over, support on the site is a joke, so many people with problems and none are solved and responses are lame. Seems like a cool idea but not worth the effort so far.

    Your firewall may be blocking Bluestacks. I initially had the same problem.

    The following must have Web+FTP Access:

    BlueStacks Agent
    BlueStacks Apk Handler
    BlueStacks App Runner
    BlueStacks File System
    BlueStacks Frontend
    BlueStacks Log Rotator
    BlueStacks Network
    BlueStacks StartLauncher

    I don't understand these comments, it works 100% for me albeit a little slow.. but it works. Like having a tablet on the PC.
