Answer 1

Using Android 3.1 emulator is near useless and non-functional.

If you want to test your app > 2.3 then you will likely need to buy a device.

If you don’t need your app to run on greater than 2.3 then change your emulator version to 2.3.3

check tools.android.com for up and coming hardware acceleration which will allow emulation of 3.0 onwards.
