If you want to make debugging faster you can setup android 4.4 from http://www.android-x86.org/download in a virtual machine (HyperV and VirtualBox both work for me) with a “Bridged” network setup.
Once installed, change the android “Screen Timeout” to “Never timeout” so it doesn’t go dark (Settings/Screen in the Android VM). Then to get it’s IP press ctrl+alt+f1 and type “ifconfig eth0”, note the ip address and press ctrl+alt+f7 to go back to the gui.
On the debugging host, type “c:\path\to\adb.exe connect IPHERE”, then it will show in Visual Studio as a target for ebugging.
