I've tried to create a new emulator for Android 4.2.2 but it can't start at all, my setup like this
After I launch this emulator, lot's of Logcat errors show up and emulator never boot up. The error message like this
I've tried to increase RAM size and also turn off camera emulation option, etc, but it still doesn't work. If anyone has experience to resolve this problem, please help.
Has far I know, never use more than 768MB of ram. Try to change it to 768MB or 512MB.
It solved my problem.

I am trying to start a emulator to develop a mobile app, due to the huge size of the emulator the icons do not response on clicks.
Attached is the emulator started from AVD. I have tried to edit the device settings, disable the frame around the screen. Nothing seems to work.
Emulator Specs: Pixel 3a API 30, Resolution-1080x2220
I have faced the same issue, in my case restarting the emulator did work.
Or create your own custom emulator
Go to AVD Manager and try Cold boot Now and if that doesn't work then try Wipe Data.
Also, Let us know how the issue got fixed.
Cold boot your emulator in order to refresh.
For some reason the height of the status bar in android emulator is increased. It's not limited to any app though. Attaching the screenshot below:
I have tried cold boot and all sorts of stuff. How can I fix this issue?
The last resort I think of is remove this emulator and create a new one. But my new emulator also starts facing this issue. I am not able to know the reason why this starts happening.
Faced this issue and tried a solution. It can be fixed by cold booting the emulator.
To do it:
Close your emulator.
Open Device Manager and click on the down arrow indicating more options.
Click on Cold boot now.
Let it start, the increased height issue of the TopBar will be fixed.
I tried looking for an answer, but then I just created a new emulator and deleted the old one. Works great and quick fix
I also encountered the same situation where in my actual device the status bar height is all normal but in the emulator the status bar height is bigger than expected.
It is definitely a huge bug.
I encountered this bug in following AVD :
Pixel 4 API 30/33
Try to avoid Pixel 4, I would suggest you to use Pixel 3/3a
I hope folks at Android fix this bug quickly.
Its completely normal. Its just a glith by the emulator because running emulator is a bit for vertualization and HAMX complexity thing to solve. Just Create another instance of OS with different android version like OREO or Nougat. It might solve this error.
I have used Eclipse to write apps for android multiple times without issue but I am now trying the new Android Studio which I like but here is my problem.
When I run the app I pick my AVD and then tell it to start. The emulator starts loading and then says paired. Then it starts telling me to swipe up and left and right to display and remove cards. Then it says to put hand on screen to dim the screen, ok well I'm on a MacBook Pro so that don't work I swipe to get past that part sometime I can others I can't. Next it says to touch the clock and say some words which also can't do on my Mac, and that is where the emulator stay it never goes to a home screen and it does this no matter what AVD I choose. How can I get the Emulator to just plain open to the home screen like it should.
Thanks for any help.
In your AVD Manager, edit your AVD and make sure your Target is "Android L" and not "Android X.XW". The "W" stands for "wear" and that is causing your issue.
Alright I figured it out. I remember having a similar problem recently when I was taking an android development class for college using eclipse and sure enough that was it.
So here was the solution eclipse gave same problem. for some reason if you have caught exemptions such as hard coding a string etc. the emulator will not run till you ignore these exemptions or fix every last ! mark in your code. Once you do this the emulator will load and run properly.
I also had the same problem with my AVD. The Android Emulator window just used to pop us and the green bars flowed infinitely. After lots of trial and error I arrived at a solution for my problem. the problem was with the Heap size and the RAM size.
Initially the default heap size was 128 MB and RAM was 1563 , I just changed the heap size to 512 MB and reduced the RAM size( high RAM was making my PC run slow) also I enabled hardware acceleration. And Yipeee, it worked.
Hi!
I have a problem getting my android emulator to work. After i run my android application project, the emulator starts, but instead of showing my application, it says the following : "Power off. Shutting down..." and then the screen goes black. I'm unable to launch my application or do anything in the emulator.
What might be the problem? My target SDK is 1.5, and the device i chose is Nexus One. Thank you
did it work before?
did try to wipe user data? (avd-launch option)
//edit:
I think Fuad is wrong:
if you change the ramSize to 1024M or 1024MB, the virtual device's amount of RAM is just set to 256MB
I had problem at first some thing like this for using android SDK...check this maybe helps you :
(YourWindowsDrive)C:\Users\YourLoginName(mine is Fuad) \ .android\avd\App.avd(This App.avd is a folder the name what I have used for my avd)
then in folder U see "config.ini". open it and change "hw.ramSize=1024" (mine is 1024 and maybe yours is different) to :
hw.ramSize=1024M
My emulator does not open up.
I have seen other questions in stackoverflow similar to my question, but I didn't get any help. Also I replaced my 1GB RAM with 2GB. But its still the same. The emulator does not show the home screen. I am using P4 3.0 GHZ processor. I also tried assigning 1024 mib to sd for a avd. But it is still the same.
I am using Android SDK 4.0 and Eclipse Juno.
Just wait, your machine isn't very much emulator friendly.
It only takes a bit longer the first time you run it.
it is a same problem that i have got.
but i solved it by,when i first start my emulator from AVD then i do not change it's scale,
then when it start as its default scale property then i close it and start one more time and scale it as i need it than it will work perfectly.
I tried a lot of options to get the emulator up and running. Cleaned/re-started/adb killstart and all this unfortunately did not work for me. I was trying with API level 20 (Android 4.4W ).
But, nothing helped. Hence i tried with API 17/18/19 ( Android 4.2,4.3 etc. ). Finally 4.3.1 and API 18 worked for me and my emulator started fine.
