Guys I've installed genymotion on virtual box provided with setup . now every time i want to start the virtual device I've to restart my laptop & sometimes even that doesn't help . So I've decided to install that on VMWare 11 . Can anyone help me please on this issue.
If anyone can solve this error which says can't connect to virtualbox ,That would be helpful also. But I still prefer solution with VMWare .
I've tried solution like DHCP server address solution which is suggested by official support site of genymotion , but that doesn't help also.
I've tried glew solution also but their support center doesn't accept log file(text) or image of error.
Snapshot of error :
I had the same issue, Genymotion can't be launched on a virtual machine!
This is quoted from their faq:
Why doesn't Genymotion start from a virtual machine? Genymotion cannot
be run from a virtual machine. Indeed, Genymotion needs a direct
access to the hardware in order to provide OpenGL acceleration.
Running Genymotion from a virtual machine prevents it to directly
access the hardware components. Therefore, Genymotion is incompatible
when installed from VMWare, Parallels, Hyper-V or VirtualPC.
About the problem with virtual box try the following steps:
1. Open Virtual box. Go to preferences.
2. Click on networks option.
3. Click on Host-only networks tab
4. Delete all host adapters.
5. Start Genymotion. It will automatically create a new network adapter with required settings.
The above worked for me.

Today I have updated my Windows 10 to the latest version, after that my Genymotion have some error: "Unable to start virtual device...",
I have gone through all the answers in Stackoverflow and made all the changes like DHCP enable, but still I am getting the error. Can anyone help me please?
I also checked the steps in Genymotion problems in windows 10 but didnot work for me!
Try this :
Open Windows Network Connections
Right click on VirtualBox Host only adapter that created
Choose properties
Check "VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking driver"
Disable and Enable the adapter.
I have tried everything(reinstalled, open as administrator, etc) and it's still not opening the Android 5.x and 6.x emulator.
The error message is :
Unable to start the virtual device.
The virtual device got no IP address.
The VirtualBox DHCP server has not assigned an IP address to the virtual device. To find a solution, please start Virtual Box.
I have followed this tip and this but the error message keeps.
I'm using a Windows 10 Pro.
Any other tip without the need of reinstalling the Windows?
Update:
Hey man I think I caught your problem.
1) Please Open VirtualBox and and Then right click on your Virutal Machine.
2) Select Settings.
3) Open General Setting from the left panel.
4) Open the Basic tab.
5) Choose Linux from the Type option.
6) Then choose Other Linux(64-bit) in the Version Section.
I have tried the option of 32-bit mode in my PC and the same problem happens as you asked in your question. So, select 64-bit mode to make it run.
Note: Android 5.x and 6.x are based on the 64-bit architecture. If you
selected the Other Linux(32-bit) option. Then Virtual Box will try to
emulate a 64-bit program in a 32-bit virtual machine type, which is
not possible.
So, Please make sure that you have selected the Other Linux(64-bit)
option for Android Versions higher than 5.x. (You can run Android
versions upto 4.x in the 32-bit mode.)
Old Answer:
No, You don't need to reinstall windows. It is not an operating system
fault.
I faced this problem.
It is due to the Antivirus Program.
If you have any antivirus program then just disable it and TRY
AGAIN.
You also don't need to set any compatibility mode.
Currently, I am using Genymotion(Version 2.6.0) and
VirtualBox(Version 5.0.12 r104815) in Windows 10 Pro without any error.
I've tried searching, but cannot resolve this error message when running the Genymotion Android emulator:
Here is my directory layout if that helps:
There are two version of genymotion.One withe the virtual box and another without the virtual box.You should install the one with the virtual box in case it is not installed on your machine then reinstall genymotion with the virtual box from official websiteenter image description here. This might solve your problem.
Take a look: https://www.genymotion.com/#!/developers/user-guide#installing-genymotion
Check version of your VirtualBox + be sure that everything from this list is not about you:
Genymotion cannot be run from a virtual machine. Indeed, it needs a direct access to the hardware in order to provide OpenGL acceleration. Running Genymotion from a virtual machine prevents it to directly access the hardware components. Therefore, Genymotion is incompatible when installed from VMWare, Parallels, Hyper-V or VirtualPC.
Does anyone have any idea on how to use fiddler4 with Oracle VirtualBox. I am using this android OS.
http://www.andyroid.net/
I have tried to configure the proxy settings in the virtual box but it doesnt seem to be able to capture traffic.
Anyone has any idea on how about going to do this. I would prefer this emulator as it is faster than the android emulator in studio.
I did not have turned the Bridged Adapter in VirtualBox Network settings.
I found out this luckily by viewing the Mac article: http://www.telerik.com/blogs/running-fiddler-in-virtualbox-on-mac
Configuring Fiddler for Android is here: http://www.cantoni.org/2013/11/06/capture-android-web-traffic-fiddler
So basically I am a newbie to android development. All was working well till few days back I suddenly got error while starting my virtual device from genymotion. It is giving me this error:
Unable to start the virtual device
The virtual device got no IP address.
I have use following solutions to resolve my problem:
Edit the Host-only Network by clicking. Check that the adapter IPv4 address is in the same network (192.168.56.0/24 by default) as the DHCP server address, lower address bound and upper address bound.
Recreated the adapter with proper settings (as in step 1)
Reinstall the genymotion and virtualBox
But none of the above mentioned steps worked for me, and it is quite frutsrating as I can't spend any more time on this issue. So, is there any other way to solve this issue?
maybe some errors are related to the amount of Base Memory that we put in VirtualBox, on some systems should lower it to 1GB, not to collapse the connection between the emulator program (Genymotion) and the virtual machine.
Sorry for my english but it's not my native language ;)
see if this helps you

So,what i did to solve my problem was that i uninstalled both virtualBox and genymotion and upgraded my virtualbox to 4.3 version and again installed both virtualBox and genymotion.After completing all the installations genymotion is working fine.
I was getting this error even when DHCP settings was proper. Figured out finally that there was a mismatch between my host config and the VM settings for the virtual device(mine was 64 bit, while VM was 32 bit). Got it working by setting the VM to 64 bit.(right click on VM image on VirtualBox-->Settings-->General-->Version)
I got this error too awhile ago. But, none of this answer can fix it.
For my problem, I fix it by trying to run the vm on Virtual Box then I got the error message. It said VT-x is disabled by Bios, so I open the vm settings on virtual box, in System -> Acceleration -> Uncheck VT-x/AMD-V
After that, I can run the virtual device normally
If your Acceleration Tab is grayed out, you can enable it in the BIOS setting. Find out the option (Internet) Virtualization Technology and Enable it.
For ASUS, it is under CPU Configuration; For HP Laptop, it is under System configurations>Device Configurations> Virtualization Technology.
After Enabling it, you can restart your computer and check it. If still doesn't work, please completely shut down the PC and then start it.
For more detailed demo please refer to the video: How to enable Grayed Out Acceleration tab in VirtualBox
Then you can go on the settings as Raiz-al shared above.
