I can't change the graphics to software in order to fix my AVD not launching. The option is greyed out. Has anyone experience this? I couldn't find anyone who had the same issue.
I'm running the latest version of Android Studio on chipmunk.
try deleting the emulator first then make a new one also delete it on Drive C:android/AVD and try running it again

I have installed a new version of android studio
Whenever I created the virtual device AVD it shows
The process for Avd has terminated .
I used the older version but still facing the issue.I have tried various methods
from Youtube like installing reinstalling haxm and downloading imagesx86 but did not solve the problem
PLZ help me!
I suggest you to forget AVD of android studio and start using other AVDs like:
NOX or Genymotion which are faster and lighter.
I have tried several things. I have reinstalled HAXM, I have reinstalled devices in AVD manager, deleted them, reinstalled SDK platforms, restarted my pc. Nothing helps.
Even when I add a new device I get the same error. Creating a new project gives the same error.
Is there anything I can do to get this error gone? Will reinstalling android studio help?
This error first occured when I wiped the data from one of my devices. Ever since no emulator has worked ever again.
If you need more info, let me know. I need the emulator to work.
I have faced this problem for a long time. I don't know what is the reason. But you can :
Use lower version of android in emulator
Don't start emulator directly, start emulator through cold boot.[recommend](for any android version)
De-select Android Emulator in
Tools > SDK Manager > SDK Tools
Google reverted back to the previous version. If you de-select the new one and press on Apply, you will see the old one ready to be downloaded.
That fixed the issue for me.
So i'm new to android studio and trying to create my own app. But Ive been having trouble running the app on the emulator, where the emulator launches but the app does not and I am stuck at Waiting for target device to come online.
I have the most up to date android studio and have Android Emulator 28.0.2. I have the configuration set to launch with the main activity. I have also tried changing the emulator API level and does not change the situation.
Does anyone know how I would go about fixing this? Also do not have an android phone as an alternative way of testing.
Thanks for the help.
Ensure that you checked Android Emulator and click Apply
Whenever the emulator struggles to come online, a cold boot often solves the problem regardless of the cause.
Tools -> AVD Manager -> Your emulator -> Cold boot from drop down menu on the right
It means that the emulator is not starting. Try deleting it and creating a new emulator the try again.
Alternatively, go ahead and run the emulator from the AVD manager then run the project itself.
I had the same problem recently. I was using Android SDK Platform-Tools 29.0.5, and Android Studio gave me a warning, suggesting that I should update it. So I updated it to the latest version (29.0.6), and then the problem was fixed. Perhaps it's just a issue of Android SDK Platform-Tools. Hope that helps.
I'm a newbie android developer ,since i upgraded to Andoid Studio 1.x from beta ,things became a lot easy , creating the AVD and managing SDK is managed better by the IDE now ,
I used the Default Nexus 5 config to setup an AVD,however can you please tell me how to safely turn it off ,I cant find any poweroff button , i have Intel HAXM set up and working fine, I got an error saying AVD instance aldready running etc asking me to delete the avd from user/android/avd/... which i did ,
WHen i created it i can run it just once, when i close and reopen studio and try to run again i get the following message
AVD Nexus_5_API_21 is already running.
If that is not the case, delete the files at
C:\Users\S****\.android\avd/Nexus_5_API_21.avd/*.lock
and try again
And what system image to use for the AVD, whats the difference between the ARM ,ATOM 86,ATOM 64 and googdle API images for the same android version, i use a windows 8.1 PC 64Bit running on a vt-x suported intel core i5 , 4200 u processor , which image should i use ,
Please Note i couldnt find solutons elsewhere and i doubt its an offtopic question as its about setting up a programming tool.
Btw the task manager shows a 32 bit emulator running
Thanks!
Here you Are :
when you click on turn on/off button emulator will be start/finish , also Remember after start emulator for first time you don't need to reOpen it!
Delete all files and directories with extetion .Lock at C:\Users\user_name.android\avd\emulator_name.avd\files.Lock and try Again.
Go to Tools>>Android>>Enable ADB Integration select this, It worked for me.
make sure sdk and avd manager added to your IDE correctly.
answer of your second question is,when you play your app in IDE a emulator will be run and on emulator toolbox you can turn off or turn on your emulator and also you can see your app running or not
I meet this situation today, but the file *.lock was deleted (not by me) when i run this emulater failed with error tips like
AVD Nexus_5_API_21 is already running.
If that is not the case, delete the files at
C:\Users\S****.android\avd/Nexus_5_API_21.avd/*.lock
so in the end, i duplicated this emulator and located the copy emulator's location and find the .*lock file and then i deleted it and it worked.
When I try to launch Android emulator, it crashes on Mac OS X. It was working some time ago, but now it isn't and I don't have an idea why.
Crash log: http://pastebin.com/04MjCqaS
Terminal log in verbose mode: http://pastebin.com/L6y6rUr0
Same issue here, I'm running a mac mini with 8GB of RAM and MacOS Lion. It used to work with the old AVD with some random crashes every now and then but since the last update to APi 17 it's a pain in the neck.
The ADT bundle doesn't work at all. After tweaking the memory limits on eclipse.ini file it throws random memory errors. Also it's not been able to download and install the m2e (maven to eclipse) plugin.
I moved to IntelliJ and I'm able to launch AVD manager but none of the "old" created devices work. If I create a new one and I launch it it works until I close it, then I have to restart the Mac and create a new device. Also it randomly shows errors when I want to delete those old created virtual devices.
Also the DDMS fails to start. I launch it, shows its icon on the Dock but it doesn't respond until I force close.
What a Nightmare.
** EDIT **
I found at android dev bug tracker this issue when you're running 2 screens: here
This is happening to me with the android emulator. I solved it like this:
cd ~/.android/avd
ls *.avd
Now choose the emulator that is crashing and
cd name_of_the_emulator.avd
touch emulator-user.ini
vi emulator-user.ini
And now reset window.x, that's window.x=0
exit and run the emulator.
If you move and close the emulator to the secondary screen it will crash the next time you want to run it.
Kill your Docker process
One problem I have seen multiple time is with Docker. Android Emulator crashes when Docker is running on Mac.
I was following the PhoneGap "Getting Started" guide for Android, and when I got to "Deploy to Emulator," after I created a new AVD, my Mac would crash and reboot. I stumbled on this thread, but thought it worth mentioning that what actually solved the problem for me was an Intel patch for the Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager located here: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager
This is because Android SDK use some deprecated libraries of Mac OS X. I have the same problem (sometimes even kernel panic) before I start use android device. Maybe in future versions of Android SDK this problem will be fixed.
I just updated the Android SDK manager to the latest Android 4.2 (API 17) level updates, and now all my old AVD's crash. The newly created one using API 17 works, however.
I have the same issue. You can try to create a new AVD with the appropriate API level. I am able to run these the first time(s) after creating. That seems to be a memory error.
My AVDs are able to run the first time after reboot. After this they keeps crashing.
I had the same issue using mac 10.6 and 2 monitors one through a usb adapter to HDMI.
I have tried all of this suggestions and nothing did work.
I ended up creating a new user into my mac and with the same android sdk and same eclipse with a new workspace did work.
I'm not sure whether just creating a new workspace would do the tweak, I didn't try it.
for those who come across to this annoy issue worth to try it before switch to a new account.
You can delete your emulators from ~/.android/avd
Then create new emulators.
