Android emulator Cannot Launch AVD in Emulator in OSX - android

Just started getting this. No idea why.
I tried 3 different new devices and get this for all of them.

Just use Genymotion as your emulator. Fast and easy to use. You just need virtual box to install it.

Please go to the SDK manager and check if the components have been downloaded properly or not.
You might need to remove and re-download them as this happens if the image was corrupted.

I just started getting something similar too.
If I set the scale option to 'Auto' everything works as intended. I assume Google have mode some changes but not updated everything properly.

Reinstalling the Android SDK worked. Took a few attempts to get it right. Had to uninstall and then reinstall. Picked x86_64 image in the end
Then I was able to go to my various virtual devices and use the Repair Device links as seen here to fix them:

Android Studio won't finish loading

I just updated my Android Studio and since the update, it will load to about 80% and then just freeze. It won't give an error and it will just never load no matter how long you wait. I have tried uninstalling and redownloading along with other various things but nothing seems to be working any ideas?
enter image description here
try deleting the folder for windows
C:\Users\USERNAME\.AndroidStudio4.0
and for MAC
/Users/YOURNAME/Library/Preferences/AndroidStudio4.0
Disconnect your phone if it is connected to the computer.
It may sound strange, but I had a similar situation.
Also, you can have a look at this post: Android Studio freezes on startup

Can't change emulated performance of AVD in Android Studio

I can't change the graphics to software as I'm sure this is the fix for my AVD not launching.
The option is greyed out (see screenshot). Has anyone has experience with this? I couldn't find anyone who had the same issue.
I'm running the latest version of Android Studio on Ubuntu 17.04.
Actually, this problem seems to be limited to devices with Play Store available, so Nexus 5X and Nexus 5 images will be forced to use Automatic Graphics, but all other devices allow you to choose either Automatic, Hardware or Software graphics.
edit: I've just tested this today and it seems to no longer be the case. At least on MacOS with Android Studio 3.3.2, I can now make a Nexus 5X image with Play Store and Hardware Graphics. I'll do more testing at home later, on Windows and Linux to see if it's related to OS or graphics drivers.
I also think it's related to whether the Playstore is contained or not, but I cannot explain why.
Dielson Sales already gave the answer which worked for me - unfortunately only in a comment to this answer. I just thought it's worth to make a "real" answer out of it:
Edit the config.ini file of the AVD. Under Linux it's located under /home/<user>/.android/avd/<AVD-name>/config.ini
(in my case <AVD-name> is Nexus_5X_API_29.avd).
In a text editor change the lines
hw.gpu.enabled=no
hw.gpu.mode=auto
either to
hw.gpu.enabled=no
hw.gpu.mode=off
or to
hw.gpu.enabled=yes
hw.gpu.mode=host
This setting remains even if opened in the Android Virtual Device Manager of Android Studio. It's just not editable there.
I also tried this, which I found in another AVD:
hw.gpu.enabled=yes
hw.gpu.mode=software
But this is then changed to "no" / "off" by the Android Virtual Device Manager.
I didn't look any further so far. hw.gpu.mode=off worked for me. Otherwise my whole Kubuntu hangs (using the Nouveau driver, not the NVidia driver)
Seems like the problem was with the choosen VM. If I choose a Nexus 4, it runs just fine.
I am little late on this thread but following are my findings and solution. I am using Ubunut 18.04 and faced the same issue. The solution is to edit AVD and under Emulated Performance, change the grpahics to Software. The problem was that this option was disabled for me. I was unable to change graphics drop down.
I did some more research and found that while creating AVD if you choose default/existing device definition on first screen, you will not be able to edit graphics drop down.
The solution is to create a "New Hardward Profile" while creating AVD and use your new profile. Now, you will be able to edit "Grahics" drop down.
Hope this helps....
It seems all emulators with Play Store cannot emulated performance. I am using AS 4.0
Open Android Virtual Device Manager Android Studio, change VMHeap to 512, RAM to 4096 MB. Then restart Android Studio.
I think It's just a bug!
Solved the issue by selecting any virtual device had the option enabled and after finishing the installation I just clicked on edit and reselected the device I wanted and the option was still enabled.
Click on edit button from here.
Then change the device to the one you want.
For those who are still searching for solutions on how to make it work with an image containing google play store: install / update your GPU drivers solves the problem. On my Ubuntu 20 this was the issue.
I'm working on mac os - after i upgrade my os my emulator stoped working and one of the solution was to change the graphic settings from hardware to software - since i couldn't - came here ---> turns out Android Emulator HAXM on macOS High Sierra is left out from security reasons

Android Virtual Devices (AVD) resolution not correct after downloading Android 5.1.1 for SDK

The story is that I developed an Android program with Android 4.4.2. But some problems was found after installing the program to a device with Android 5.1.1. So I tried to download Android 5.1.1 for my SDK to debug the problem. Then the AVD I kept on using becomes like a mess no matter I changed to different configuration (see picture 1). My AVD configuration is as picture 2.
Hope someone could help... Thank you so much!
Picture 1
Picture 2
Got a temporary way to solve it and don't know if it is correct.
Set the skin to "no skin".
There is another problem happened now. The control bar of that window shows out of the screen. It makes the window cannot be moved. Anyway, I can continue my development job in this way...

Can't create any AVD on SDK 22.6

It's really weird.
Ever since I've updated to the new ADT&SDK (22.6.0), I can't create any AVD. Not even the built in ones. I tried setting different Android Os versions, different memory values,... I've played with many configurations . Nothing helped.
I've tried to even uninstall and re-install the entire SDK manager, and it didn't work.
it lets me fill all of the fields, but pressing "OK" doesn't do anything. it doesn't even close the window.
Here's a sample screenshot:
Can anyone please help?
OK, so it seems it's a known bug.
for now, the workaround is to create the AVDs via the AVD manager, by running the AVD manager outside of eclipse- just run "AVD Manager.exe" and that's it.

Emulator is already running but not able to see it in ubuntu

I am using ubuntu 12.04,and Eclipse Platform Version: 3.7.2, I have one issue which i observed occasionally on my system I dont know whether this issue is common and did't find any related question so asked.. problem is - "when I tried to launch android application using emulator(API level 17 Nexus 4),it runs fine no problem and emulator is in front of me, But the moment i open other window like browser,editor it hides and i am not able to see it.." Log says that emulator is ruuning but dont know where it hide.
If someone else is facing this problem, it could be due to memory overwhelming. To solve, in Ubuntu, go to Home/.android/avd/Pixel_X_API_XX.avd
and delete the *lock files, then Run the emulator as usually.
Where I wrote Pixel_X_API_XX.avd it means, for example : Pixel_2_API_32.avd
Bye bye
