Google Phone Browser Emulator for simulating Android OS smartphones, tablets and nettop PC computer with Google Android operating system and web explorer. Every kind of Small Screen Web Browser Emulator is available and if we do not already have it, you can customize our generic emu and configure it with the screen resolution and browser.
I would like to showcase my android apps to clients.I would like to send them so that they can play with it in browser and tell the changes.
So,in order to achieve that can a VNC Session of Android be Emulated in browser? If so Can this be done using only javascript with help of node.js or do i need to use java servlets to do that?
I would like to know the possibilities and How can this be done.
EDIT 1:
After some googling i found this site which exactly does what i needed.After going through the source of it i think its exactly an emulation of VNC instance in a browser.So have look it and please let me know.
Here is the link to the site http://www.manymo.com/

You can also try noVNC: https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC - I belive it has full support for NodeJS and integrates easily into existing sites.
The problem with the approach is that simulators are really slow. I would not risk it to show progress to non-technical customer.

I asked a similar question to this a while back, regarding deploying apps to Google App Engine with the intention of creating browser based demos, and it appears that not much has sprung up since then in regards to a viable solution, however the link you post does look interesting.
Your best alternatives are :
- Buy a (cheap) handset, load up your apps, and demo in front of theclient.
- Send them an APK so they can try it on their devices
- Make some videos, or storyboarding using screenshots of how the appworks (not great, but it'd give an idea of what you can do)
Nothing substitutes having a demo on a real device :
- They can actually have the app on a phsyical device in their hands,they goes a long way..
- They can make use of the device APIs that you may find difficult toemulate otherwise if you have complex use cases
- They can run it on a specific device that perhaps they're intendingto use

I just installed the Android SDK on my Windows 7 64-bit. I'm creating a web app, so all I'd like to do is open the Android web browser. I double clicked on tools/emulator.exe, but all it did was flash a CMD box on the screen for a split second. I proceeded to read the documentation. It says I have to type this command in CMD to open the emulator:

First you must create an AVD (Android Virtual Device). How to do that, find out here. Afterwards, you can start it using the command you provided. When the emulator has started, you can simply click on web browser's icon to start it.
To create an AVD, I'd recommend using Eclipse and Android development tools for Eclipse; it's easier than using command line if you're just beginning Android development.

this has nothing to do with your app : you ave to create an AVD first, by using the AVD & SDK Manager, lauched by android-sdk-dirtoolsandroid.bat

AVD represents the name of the emulator and it has nothing to do with the application that you want to run, follow this procedure if you are using eclipse : go to run, select run configuration>>select your project>>go to target>> here you can select the specific android device according to your needs >> hit run.i think that will solve your problem.
