I've gone through many threads in SO but I can't get an answer.
I did everything according to instruction. Twice actually. I chose both x86 and x86_64 for CPU type. haxm_check.exe is showing everything works. sc query intelhaxm also appears to report everything OK.
Performance I get: I have to wait for about a minute until a phone app opens and a minute again to get back to home screen.
My CPU is i5-3210M # 2,5GHz, So I don't think this is a problem to at least get a decent performance.
try lowering the device ram size.
so go to the AVD Manager and press the pencil icon for editing the device.
set it at 512mb first. then try again.
this is the only thing i can think of with the information you gave.

After installing androidx86 on VirtualBox at boot android boot in CLI and after a couple of seconds I got a black screen, with a blinking underscore at the top-left of the screen, its keep blinking without any change, it wont boot the gui.
I have tried different installations following various guides on internet, but I got ever the same problem, I have also tried with Alt+f7 key combo and putting nomodoeset in boot option in grub, but nothing.
In all tutorial I have found online they always start the gui without any problem. But I got always the black screen after 2 seconds of cli.
Found a fix posted by Val at superuser.com:
I managed to solved my problem :
I just changed the display option Graphics Controller to VBoxVGA and enabled 3D animation.
Right click on the virtual machine you are looking to modify, and hit Settings
Navigate to Display, then make sure you are on the Screen tab
Set Monitor Count to 2 or more
Set the Graphics Controller to VBoxVGA
Increase the Video Memory to 128MB (choose the maximum amount available to you)
I'm new to android developing, and when I finally sit down to learn, my android emulator wouldn't run. Well, some button is tellimg me the AVD: Nexus_5_API_23_x86 is running, but I don't get any emulator screen popping up even after leaving my laptop in overnight.
it's the first time I'm running the emulator, and the emulator screen has never appeared before.
Also, I always get this message displayed:
C:\Users\HUBERT\Application\Local1\Android\sdk1\Tools\emulator.exe -netdelay none -netspeed full -avd Nexus_ 5_API_23_x86
Also, if I click to run an app, I get the device chooser pop up, I select the Nexus and hit OK, but nothing happens. I still don't get the emulator screen.
Please help
You need to use the adv manager to get something that will work on your laptop. On the second bar down, the one under your "file, edit, view bar..., select the AVD manager. It's the third icon from the "?" icon traveling left. Try x86 and arm setups to see what will work. remember that the initial load will take some time. 2-3 minutes with 4 gig of RAM. what OS and how much RAM do you have?
finally, I did it by unchecking the emulated performance from Use Host GPU to Store a snapshot for faster startup, and that worked fine..
. at least for now.
I also downgraded the API from API 23 to API 15. Everything now seems to be OK.
The genymotion emulator starts from AndroidStudio. It shows its white screen but never goes beyond that. It never comes to the home screen. Tried running the app. does not work. I have tried API 18 emulator. does not work. I have tried changing sdk path, setting android_home. does not work??
Did you checked logs for errors or possible explanation? Do you have both VirtualBox and Genymotion configured properly? It is hard to answer your question more accurately cause you did provide little information.
Going into my BIOS and enabling Intel Virtualization Technology under the CPU Options, and then going into GenyMotion and changing the device's # of virtual processors fix this issue for me.
Some time ago i also faced the same problem ... you can try above all suggestion but what worked for me is :-
Downloading Oracle VM VirtualBox
Here is the link , DOWNLOAD and install it.
http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/virtualization/virtualbox/overview/index.html
I often have the same problem. If I delete the virtual device and then reinstall it, it usually fixes the problem for me.
To delete it, open the genymotion desktop application
Delete the device that's giving you the white screen - select the device and then click on the trash can icon
After it's deleted, reinstall the device - press add, search for the device, select it and press next twice
The device will be installed again, and it may start properly this time around.
At times my AVD boots up with a higher resolution than it is supposed to , I do not modify any of the settings before running it. Also when restarted it boots up with the right resolution. Although not critical it does waste sometime.
I am not sure why it does but i just edited the details before launching and enabled launch from snapshot option. This did fix the issues and remembers previous settings.
Also if you are launching emulator from command like you can specify -scale 0.8 if you want it to be 80% of what you want.
I'm an Android newbie trying to learn how to port one of my apps to the Android platform. I've been following this tutorial:
http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html#overview
I'm stuck unable to boot up the emulator :( When I tell it to start, it would just stick at the "Android" boot animation for hours on end. I searched online and found some pages talking about disabling the boot animation. I did so and tried again. There's no boot animation (just the word "Android" flashing), but it's still hours with no sign of booting. 'top' shows an app called 'emulator' using a lot of CPU.
Am I doing something wrong? My system is an AMD Athlon X2 dual-core QL-60, 1900 MHz with 3GB ram.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
I had this problem and fixed it by deleting the emulator and creating a new one.
In eclipse:
Menu Window -> Android SVK and AVD Manager
Select Virtual devices (should be selected already)
Select the emulator giving you problems
Click edit to see the setting and remember them, click cancel.
Click delete to delete the emulator.
CLick create to create a new one that is the same as the old one.
Click start.
It started in about 30 seconds after I did that.
Normally the emulator starts in about 2-3 minutes for me. Then it mysteriously stopped working. I was seeing boot animation for 30 minutes before I gave up.
Note #1: Doing this will wipe your user data.
Note #2: As mentioned else where, it's a good idea to check "Enabled" for the snapshot, this lets you do faster startup next time.
Note #3: Also my new emulator came up in chinese. That's kinda of weird :)
Android emulator release 9 has new "snapshot" feature. You can save state of emulator (make image of emulator) and avoid booting when you start the emulator.
I see a similar problem while attempting to run applications on an emulator while the emulator isn't started yet. I find that starting the emulator manually via the "Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager" will load in just a couple minutes or faster, as expected. After the emulator is started manually in this way, you can load applications into it without issue.
I faced same problem on my laptop using I5 8GB RAM. The only solution that worked for me was connecting the laptop charger when launching the emulator. May sound wierd but this always works for me.
