I am a new learner of android development .When I was creating an AVD then it said that "on windows emulating RAM greater than 768M may fail depending upon system load.Try progressively smaller values of RAM if the emulator fails to launch" . respective screen shots are as fallows :
warning
stuck:
I tried to decrease the RAM size after that and tried 400 instead of 1024 but it couldn't open the AVD home page .I waited more than one hour but all in vain .I am using Android 4.4 API level 19 .I don't know why this happening and stuck at this situation.I want to know that where is the problem ,why it's not running .My PC configuration is :
OS: Windows 7 RAM: 2 GB Processor : Core2Duo
AVD is quite slow at times. Tips to speed it up significantly:
Download the Intel x86 Atom System Image from your Android SDK Manager for API 19
Then download and install

If you have a graphics card I would try to enable Host GPU option
Example settings for your AVD:
- CPU/ABI: Intel Atom (x86)
- Emulation Options: Use Host GPU

I've seen this question around stack overflow. Tried various solutions and none work for me. Lowered the RAM size, changed VM Heap size, made sure I have Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer) installed but nothing works. Some people recommend Genymotion but I think there's an annual fee.
Only the original AVD that came with Android Studio works, NEXUS 5X API 24.
I added a new Nexus 6 API 21 AVD and it doesn't load past "android" load screen. I made a custom AVD and it doesn't load as well pass "android" load screen.
All 3 AVD's run on x86 CPU/ABI and 3GB size on disk.
The only difference is the NEXUS 5X AVD uses Nougat Android 7.0 x86 while the custom AVD and Nexus 6 uses Lollipop Android 5.0 x86 because I want to develop app with Screen Capture.
So what can I do to make the emulators work?
I've no issue launching a Wear VD but I can't get a normal Android to start...
Working on Windows 7 - 64 bits, with Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 (so no 64 bits emulation) and 6Gb RAM.
When I try to launch a virtual device with avd,
If I try with Intel Atom (x86), I get stuck on the Android screen :
Using Google APIs Intel Atom (x86), it stays stuck on the final loading screen :
Android is starting
Starting apps.
Here are the settings :
I've tried to :
lower the emulated RAM under 768 Mb as advised (stuck earlier (at Optimizing app N of 74))
maximise emulated RAM (2048 Mb)
but that doesn't fix the problem...
Any ideas?
Okay its not the previous HAXM errors of 2015 as it was escalated with Intel and they fixed it asof summer 2015:

But that was a different set of CPUs than the on you listed
Probably since you have Windows 7 64-bit the feature may be disabled in your BIOS. The way to enable it in BIOS will be different due to the OEM of the laptop or desktop computer but usually can be found at the OEM's website as its a common asked question.
I'm new to developing an Android App using Android Studio. I've been following this example app on their website: https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/running-app.html#RealDevice
The problem is, when I try to run using the emulator or my real device (Samsung S5) using the instructions on that link, I still couldn't find my device. I get an error when using the emulator that would take 10 minutes to load on my 2 GB RAM computer (only to fail).
emulator: WARNING: Crash service did not start
emulator: Classic qemu does not support SMP. The hw.cpu.ncore option from your config file is ignored.
Cannot set up guest memory 'android_arm': Invalid argument (in red text)
Other considerations:
1. My processor is AMD and not Intel, so the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM installer) doesn't work for me.
2. I used the Nexus 5 emulator device with API level 21. I tried it with Nexus 6 emulator device with API level 23. No luck on both.
3. I've placed my Samsung S5 device on Debugging Mode but it never showed up on the "connected device" area when running the app.
I've searched for other questions relating to it. But my luck has run out. The fact that I got a slow computer adds to the bad luck.
You might be experiencing these problems due to allocation of excessive amount of RAM for the virtual device which wont be available for the device.
set it to something like 1024MB or 768MB and try again.
I am building/testing a group chat and events application, and need to be able to test on 3+ devices.
Using Android Virtual Device manager, I can successfully run two emulators, yet starting a third, simply displays the android naming and loading, never getting to the home screen.
I do have 16 GB ram, and never reach above 14 GB with all processes running...
What configuration do I have to change to allow for running 3 emulators?
Try HAXM accelerator. from SDK update window, download intel x86 accelerated device image (HAXM)
I recommend using the Gennymotion emulator, & set 1GB ram for each device. Be sure not to choose a fancy device like nexus 5.
i want to set up an android emulator, i downloaded android 4.4 (kitkat), tools, and all the extra's
the emulator is loading forever, its already loading for 2 hours, the android startup boot logo is not laggy, so the emulator is not slow.
I rebooted multiple times, and tried different devices
my emulator:
device: 10.1" WGXA (tablet) (1280 x 800: mdpi)
Target: android 4.4 - API level 19
CPU: ARM (armeabi-v7a) <--- cant change this
Memory Options: RAM:768 VM Heap: 32
Internal storage: 4096
Emulation Options: use host GPU
Computer specs:
4.2GHz 8-core cpu
4GB ram
and lot more
if i look in task manager it is using 15%cpu, 470MB RAM and 0MB disk speed
when you're using the Windows OS, you have to set the RAM to 512Mb in order to get the AVD to run properly.
Hope this helps as 2 hours is an awful long time for the emulator to load.
Had the same problem, try starting the AVD on its own and wipe user data before trying your app.
you are running these settings
10.1" WGXA (tablet) (1280 x 800: mdpi)
CPU: ARM (armeabi-v7a)
use host GPU
you must have a SUPER COMPUTER.... try a lower resulion start with 800x400,
if you have an INTEL pc,
download the "INTEL" engine from the SDK-MANAGER.API19
then use "use the GPU" setting and choose the "engine: intel" setting when creating an emulator
if you have a non-intel, then im sorry, stick with 800x400 resolution
Open android sdk manager
Extras-> install Android Support library
I had a problem on Windows 8 64-bit, with fresh installation of Eclipse and Android SDK - Virtual device was starting "forever".
I found this thread http://gotoanswer.stanford.edu/?q=android+emulator+forever+launching and link to
Can having spaces in the android sdk path cause problems in eclipse?
Solution: I moved Android SDK from
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk
to
c:\android-sdk
Changed location in Eclipse, and this fixed a problem for me. Now AVD launches normally. I have not found any other comments on the reason or explanation.
I hope it will help someone else.
