I ran the timer, stopwatch, and compass example here:
https://developers.google.com/glass/develop/gdk/quick-start#for_android_beginners
However, the application builds but doesn't run. This is all I can get in logcat:

I'm using
Eclipse Standard/SDK
Version: Kepler Release Build id: 20130614-0229
Using the "Run as" menu in Eclipse will only install the APK on the device but won't run it, because none of the application components in the manifest have android.intent.category.LAUNCHER.
Instead, after the APK is installed, you can use the voice trigger on Glass to start it. For example, say "ok glass, show a compass" for the Compass sample. This will start the CompassService service that publishes the live card to the timeline.
