I have Installed HAXM for linux 64bit and KVM installed successfully.
Hardware supports VT.
VT enabled in bios.
Installed Intel x86 Atom System Images for desired API's.
Still can't change CPU/abi to Intel x86 using ADV Manager.
This was working for my previous machine with eclipse Indigo,Now not working with ADT bundle From Developers site
ADT Bundle
When you create your AVD, be sure to select the API level for which you have an x86 image installed. In your screen caps above, you show that you have x86 images installed for API level 15 and API level 10. If you are creating an AVD with API level 19, you will not be able to select the x86 image since it is not installed.
It was problem with ADT version.
I updated ADT version to latest 22.6 and now it is working properly.
Thanks for advices though.
can you check your permissions for your SDK folder ?
ls -al /home/pankaj/PankajWorkplace/DevelopmentTools/sdk/system-images/android-15/*
Maybe your AVD Manager doesn't use the right location. If you launch it from eclipse, is eclipse configured to use the Android SDK in /home/pankaj/PankajWorkplace/DevelopmentTools/sdk ? You can change this path from eclipse Window -> preferences -> Android.

I can successfully launch AVDs for the targets Android 5.1 (Google APIs) and Android 6.0 (Google APIs), both using CPU=x86. However the AVD I create for Android 4.1 (Google APIs) using CPU=arm cannot be launched. When I try to launch it I see a dialog:
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:
emulator: ERROR: This AVD's configuration is missing a kernel file!!
emulator: ERROR: ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is undefined
Since two AVDs do work I'm sure ANDROID_SDK_ROOT is defined. I've also verified that File -> Project Structure -> SDK Location is correct.
I have also run the Android SDK Manager, uninstalled all API 16 items and reinstalled these API 16 items:
SDK Platform
Intel x86 Atom System Images
ARM EABI v7a System Image
Google APIs
Sources for Android SDK
Within the Android SDK Manager all other libraries and packages are up to date. And I have restarted my Windows 7 computer.
Also note that I am forced to create this API 16 AVD for CPU=arm rather than using CPU=x86 as the Android Virtual Device Manager, when showing available system images, does not show an x86 image for target=Android 4.1 with Google APIs).
Does anyone know what the problem is? Or suggest things I can try to debug this issue?
Edit from a day after opening this question: Since I've seen no answer I'm assuming this is another Android Studio bug. I've input this bug report - https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=207494
I got same error while trying to run ARM based emulator which is of API 16. I got this error when ARM images are downloaded from the android-studio itself( Not using Standalone SDK Manager option under System Settings->Android SDK in android-studio).
I solved this by launching Standalone SDK Manager from android studio. Then open Tools->Manage AVDs from Standalone SDK Manager menu. Here you can find your emulators. I observed that my ARM CPU emulator shows question marks in the columns named Platform,API label,CPU/ABI. Which seems to be some sort bug. Select the Emulator and click on edit. Choose the Target API,CPU/ABI properly and then click ok.
Now my emulator works perfectly. This solved my problem.
I figured out that updating android-studio caused this problem for me.
I want to Have an Android L Emulator in my AVDs , I used to use Genymotion for android developement,
but till now genymotion doesn't supports android L.
I'm using Windows 8.1 x64 ,an Intel Processor, and HAXM Installed.
Which system Images should i Download and Use ?
What's The Differences between :
Intel x86 Atom_64 System Image
Google APIs Intel x86 Atom_64 System
Image
Should i download both for this Purpose?
I want an Emulator Which is Fast as Possible that Supports Google API too.
Thanks Alot.
If your processor is Intel and supports hardware virtualization, use an Intel x86 Atom Image and install Intel x86 Emulator Accelarator (HAXM installer) under Extras.
However, you still need to manually install the HAXM after downloading it. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager and run intelhaxm-android.exe
And don't forget to check "Use host GPU" as previously suggested.
Both are full images, the Google APIs one isn't an add-on.
The only difference between the two is the support for Google APIs that is only in 2., both 64bit images are as fast.
You should tick "Use host GPU" setting instead of Snaphost as Snapshot will save you start time but the emulator will be overall slower.
I downloaded the new android 5.0 sdk and sys-image, but if i would like to start an emulator with android 5.0 it not start just show me a black screen, whats the problem?
You have to turn on the option "Use host GPU".
On my Mac I had already enabled Use Host GPU and that did not help me. I was using CPU/ABI: Intel Atom (x86_64) and then changed it to Intel Atom (x86) and then it launched.
Android SDK Platform-tools r21 or higher is required.
Android SDK Tools 23.0.5 or higher is required.
I have Intel HAXM up and running fine on Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit (Core i3-2100 3.1 GHZ, 4 GB RAM).
About starting an Android emulator Intel x86 for API 21 with Use Host GPU enabled,
I had started it in just a first try using JDK 64-bit.
I can not start it even though waiting for a whole day using JDK 32 bit.
I hope this helps.
I am trying create the AVD for Google TV on API 13 on windows machine. but while creating, it throws a error asking to install the Intel x86 System Image. but i don't find the x86 system image in the sdk manager for API 13 where as I can see it on other later APIs. (Have already installed it for other APIs)
Could some one please help me fix this and get the Google TV AVD up and running.
I've found workaround for this problem. Tested it on Ubuntu 12.10 but it should work for Windows and Mac OS.
Here are the steps:
download Intel x86 Atom System Image for Android 2.3.3 (API 10) using Android SDK Manager
create folder <sdk-root>/system-images/android-13/x86
copy everything from <sdk-root>/system-images/android-10/x86 into <sdk-root>/system-images/android-13/x86
edit <sdk-root>/system-images/android-13/x86/source.properties file with any text editor and replace next rows:
Pkg.Desc=Android SDK Platform 2.3.7 => Pkg.Desc=Android SDK Platform 3.2
Pkg.Revision=2 => Pkg.Revision=1
AndroidVersion.ApiLevel=10 => AndroidVersion.ApiLevel=13
That's it. Now if you open Android SDK Manager you will see Intel x86 Atom System Image for Android 3.2 (API 13).
Also it would resolve error message while creating AVD with Google TV Addon (API 13).
I had luck to launch emulator and work with it. However there is no guarantee that you would have correct behavior using this emulator.
I've installed the new tools without problems. I've installed the Intel HAXM. I've verified (with sc query intelhaxm) that the Intel service is running. I've also confirmed the machine (a Lenovo ThinkCentre) supports Intel Virtualization Technology.
So why in the AVD Manager is the CPU/ABI field fixed at ARM for every single platform version of Android?
At the time of this writing, the only available x86 emulator image is for Android 2.3.3 (API Level 10), listed in the SDK Manager as "Intel Atom x86 System Image". Hopefully others will become available in the future.
BTW, for those reading this question and answer and going "huh?", the r17 edition of the Android developer tools added support for native x86 emulators, which will run somewhat faster than their ARM emulator equivalents.
You can download Android emulator images direct from Intel's website. Here they have a KitKat image that looks to be API 19 (4.4).
Just to keep this question up to date:
Like CommonsWare said, at the time of that writing, the only Intel x86 images available were API 10. Some time ago Intel started updating images in sync with SDK releases.
In order to use the images, you may download them from the SDK Manager, or follow Intel's Instructions (4.3-specific, but apply generally).
Despite what you use, note an important point of the instructions:
select non-"Google APIs" targets (e.g. "Android 4.3 - API Level 18") - the AVD Manager won't let you change CPU to x86 unless using vanilla droid targets.
I had a startup issue on ubuntu as well. To get it working I used the -disable-kvm option. Took three days to find this solution.
./emulator -avd i -noaudio -nojni -netfast -show-kernel -verbose -gpu on -cpu-delay 0 -qemu -m 512 -disable-kvm
