how to enable emulator in android studio? - android

I've been learning Android studio and android app development for a while now and I've been installing emulator .I recently installed the Nexus 5S API 24 but that showed some emulator errors
enter image description here
And then I thought the problem is with the API and so downloaded an emulator with lower API i.e; NEXUS 4 API 18 and that is also not running showing the same error. I thought the problem is with android Studio and hence I uninstalled the whole Android
Studio and then downloaded it again.But again the same errors show up.
I tried connecting my phone as an emulator instead of downloading an emulator.
But then, something showed up like in the picture below
enter image description here
Mine is a Gionee P7 phone .
Any help on this issue would be helpful .

Open the SDK Tools (Tools> SDK Manager> SDK Tools) to check if you have installed the Intel X86 Accelerator, if not, check the box and apply, then restart your AS, it should work.
Still recommend you to use real device to run your application, since the emulator really cost a lot of memory resources.

android studio times out installing the app

I have a question about running an app through the emulator on android studio.
My emulator device is able to turn on, but when running the app, install never completes so the app times out. I have tried invalidating cache and restarting, and I have installed the sdk platforms that are the same as the emulators and project, but these changes did not work. My computer cannot install emulator hypervisor driver for AMD processors or intel x86 Emulator accelerator, but I don't think it is necessary for the app to run since my emulator can turn on, right? also, any app has never successfully run on android studio.
The is no code other than the hello world that comes up automatically. This is an empty project with a minimum sdk of api: android 4.1. The device I am using is a pixel 2 with an api of 22. (size on disk 3.5 GB) for tools, I have android SDK build-tools 33, android emulator (31.3.10), and android sdk platform- tools (33.0.3) installed.
I have tried every forum that has the same issue as me but if you think there is one that can help me, please share it thanks.
Android Emulators aren't always the best so expect random failures. This is what I would try:
Make sure the app compiles properly (make sure you see BUILD SUCCESSFUL in your bottom "Build" Tab in Android Studio)
Make sure you have updated Android Studio and Android Emulator, Android Build Tools, SDKs etc.
Create and use a device with a higher API version. Ideally one with Play Store.
Depending on your development machine you might want to try a different architecture (ABI). Try x86 or x86_64 instead of what you've already tried.
In rare cases your existing emulator images get corrupted. Uninstall them in your SDK manager (Show Package Details) and install them again.
If possible try running the app on a real device (follow online instructions to enable USB debugging etc.) to verify the emulator is the problem.

Emulator on Android SDK failed to start on Windows 10 Pro

I am working with Ionic Cordova project and trying to run emulator. I am using trial version of windows 10 pro, till now didn't put license, it is trial only. though Android studio, Java sdk, and Android-SDK installed correctly but when trying to start emulator (for a correctly created virtual image) it is failing to start. It is visible for 1 seconds after that it is never visible. In-fact event viewer also not showing any error log. is it due to trial version of win 10 pro? I have no clue why it is happening?
I have tried by both installing hyper-v and once unstalling hyper-v, but none worked. I am not sure if hyper-v feature should be on or off. What is correct way?
How did you install the emulators and SDK exactly? What Android SDK version is the emulator based on? Are you really using Visual Studio and the Tools for Apache Cordova? What VS version, cordova and cordova-android versions?
If you see emulator icon, but don't see window, just recreate emulator. This is because of bugs with emulator position (when emulator window is off-screen).
Anyway, try recreating virtual device

Xamarin.Forms Visual Studio 2017 project does not deploy

I am new to Xamarin. I used Xamarin. Forms template to create a sample mobile solution in Visual Studio 2017. The process created four projects Xamarin PCL, Xamarin Android, Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.UWP. Without making any modification to the generated solution, I am trying to run it.
The first issue is, when I set the UWP as the starting project, the Windows emulator shows up and runs the app perfectly. But when I try to do the same with Android, I get different errors at different times based on the environment changes I make. Finally, using the visual studio android emulator, the Phone UI shows up but not my app. In the background, I can see that Visual Studio completed the build process successfully without any errors but the deploy process simply hangs. I left the deploy running overnight but still running in the morning. Here is my environment.
Intel Core i7 processor
Virtualization enabled in BIOS
Windows 10 Education
32GB RAM
Hyper-V disabled in Windows
Executed bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off in the command window and rebooted.
I tried setting the above environment in different combinations but none of them seem to make the app work. When I use an android emulator from android SDK, the build process throws errors. The only emulator that even builds is the visual studio emulator. But the deploy hangs.
A second issue I have is, I have installed android SDK for version 24 and 25. But in the emulator dropdown, I can only see the emulators for 23. I checked the installation path both in visual studio and android SDK manager and they both point to the same installation folder. What do I need to make the emulators for version 24 and 25 usable?
I repeat, I did not make any change to the generated solution in visual studio before running it. I have been at it for the past three days and couldn't make it work. Please help.
I just installed Visual Studio 2017 (on Win10 15063.138) and found, like you, Xamarin projects won't deploy to Android. Here's how I got running:
Updated everything in the Android SDK Manager.
Installed the new, improved Android Emulator from MS:
https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/msft-android-emulator/
Used that to download/install an API level 23 (6.0 Marshmallow)
emulator
Started that emulator using the same tool (you'll see it running in Hyper-V Manager)
Selected same emulator in VS for deploy/debug (the emulators that ship with VS are painfully slow)
In VS, selected Android project for start-up and verified build and deploy to Android in build config mgr.
Note: MS doesn't appear to have any emulators above API level 23, so Compilation and Target settings for your Android project can be the latest, but the minimum target will have to be 6.0 (API 23).
After pulling my hair for the past few days, I finally got my Xamarin.Forms Android App to show my page on the emulator. Thanks to all the members for their suggestions. Ryan's suggestion helped a lot ( I +1ed him, thanks Ryan) but did not solve my problem. I googled further and found a suggestion that asked to change the following setting which did it for me finally. So, if anyone else get stuck like I did, please do the following (in addition to cleaning up and updating all packages):
Open up the setting for your Hyper-V vm for your emulator (while the VM is off).
Expand the Processor node on the left and click on "Compatibility".
Now put a check mark on "Migrate to a physical computer with a different processor version" on the right.
Start your emulator in the Visual Studio Emulator tool.
Now, start debug your android project in VS using the same emulator that is already running.
After a delay (there is always a delay), your app will show up on the emulator. Yey!!

Android Studio - Emulator doesn't load my app

I'm using android studio about 2 weeks and everything is going right until I try to create a new app and the android studio ask me for updates to API level 22 and I did it. After this update my emulator doesn't load my app anymore, the emulator opens but the app doesn't show up and even appears at emulator.
Log:
Device Nexus_5_API_21_x86 [emulator-5554] is online, waiting for processes to start up..
I try to uninstall and install again the android studio but even reinstalling with API level 21 keep not working.
Even the default Hello World application doesn't load and not show up at my emulator.
I had the same issue, and was able to work around it by manually starting the emulator first, then running the app and choosing the running emulator
I had this same issue with my first app on android studio 2.1.2. I just tried to run it and see on emulator screen but app didn't show up there.
Remember to check the messages panel it saying something wrong with my java version. I had installed JDK 7. I installed JDK 8 and that fixed the problem.

Unable to select my Android device when running project in Eclipse

I'm trying to develop an Android app using the Eclipse IDE and I want to debug using my physical Moto X (2nd gen, Android version 4.4.4). I thought it was as easy as turning on USB debugging on the phone, plugging it into my macbook (OS X Yosemite 10.10.1), running my Android application from eclipse, and selecting my device.
However when the device chooser dialogue comes up, it doesn't show my moto x in there. It shows all the Android Virtual Devices I have set up, but nothing under running Android device. What's particularly mind-blowing about this to me is that I can clearly see my device in the eclipse device view as online. I can also see it by going into the sdk folder and running adb devices. The only time to doesn't show up is when I try to run the application and select what to run it on.
Has anyone ever encountered this problem before? Is there something here I'm missing? I have the latest Android SDK all up to date, as well as my Eclipse (I'm running Juno if that matters). My Min SDK version is 11, and the Target is 21, so my device should be in that range. I have also tried restarting the device, eclipse, and even my macbook with no luck.
If you are on Yosemite, try to drag corner of one of the column headers in the device chooser box and it will show the device. This is a hilariously stupid bug on eclipse for Mac. Check this answer.
There might be something wrong with eclipse. Sometimes the only solution to fix eclipse is to redownload a fresh copy of ADT from website.
You say that you can see your device when you run adb devices.
In this case use eclipse to build your project then use adb to install the apk on the phone:
adb install /path/to/projectRoot/bin/myBuild.apk
Better yet I would take this as a sign to forget Eclipse and move to Android Studio. Version 1.0 was released today (no more beta).
