I'm trying to run the Android emulator with the ICS (Android 4.0) OS but after a 15 minute wait on a fast quad core machine, it's still not doing anything. I understand it's emulating the arm cpu, hence it's slow - but this hasn't even gotten off the loading screen yet! Has anyone managed to get it to run? Any tips?
Try launching without the Launch from snapshot feature
Launching some of my AVD's from command line with
./emulator -avd ...
Gives
savevm: unable to load section cpu
that may or may not be related to the problem(?), but basically launching without the snapshot starts up the emulator.
This happened after I upgraded to Android SDK to 4.0
My solution is the starting Emulator manually but with Target 2.2., let's say with API level 8, then your project will be easily loaded on Emulator.
I made sure to turn off "Load from Snapshot". And mine will still not load. I am going on about an 1 hour now and still sitting
In my case, I succeeded to get ICS emulator by executing $ emulator-arm -avd your_avd_name whereas launching from eclipse (i.e. going through emulator.exe instead of emulator-arm.exe) fails consistently.

While running Emulator its shows Emulator was Killed.
In Activity Log I can see an error named as:
"Emulator: Process finished with exit code -1073741515 (0xC0000135)"
I have tried---->
To clean/wipe and cold reset
Even I have tried by creating a new Emulator with RAM size 4 Gb also. But still, I faced the same problem which I had encountered earlier.
My IDE and SDK are updated.
I had also tried to configure my AVD's Graphics from Automatic to Software-GLS 2.0 but that doesn't work too.
But the same project can be run on my Android Phone.
My PC's Virtualisation is "Enabled"
Please Help me with that...
There's some suggestions in here about running the emulator from the command line, so you get some more useful info.
Since you mentioned RAM size, make sure you have enough local storage on the virtual device too - I've had a lot of problems where I've tried to keep it low (it'll be fine! I'm only installing one small app!) and the emulator misbehaves and won't run properly
I have been trying to use android studio emulator but I can not run my App on the Emulator. When I Run my App it shows the emulator with following details:
Hax is enabled
Hax ram_size 0x40000000
HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode.
Console on port 5554; ADB on port 5555
After that it takes to next TAB Launching app and shows waiting for the device to come online. After that it shows error:
Error while waiting for device: Time out after 300 seconds waiting for emulator to come online.
Anyone know any solution.
Although there could be various reasons for this behaviour....
Mostly it may be due to error in system images or the API version you are using
better you download latest system images and make sure the compatibilty of API version you are using.
If problem exists
I would like to suggest some fixes:
Try them
1)Uninstall/Reinstall Android SDK to folder.
OR
2) delete the emulator and create another emulator targeted at the appropriate API Level.
OR
3)create a new Virtual Device.
OR
4)set "Max VM application heap size" hardware property to 192 or higher and pick the QVGA skin.
hope it helps.
I was also facing this timeout error. Here is the solution worked for me
Launch Task Manager -> Search for adb.exe in process list->End the process->Try relaunching the emulator it will start.
This helped me:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avcOIrtimMU
Click on app: edit configurations;
In Launch Options: choose Specific Activity
In Activity: specify your main class: com.example.budgetapp.MainActivity
And, run.
This Worked for me:
GoTo SDK Manager -> SDK Tools -> Check that the android emulator has the latest version and If doesn't install the updates.
I had the same error described here.
Hope This Helps
Check updates.... Emulator had an update.
After I updated worked fine.
I went through a lot of posts. But none of them seemed to work for me. Every time I tried to start the emulator, the process seemed to be "not responding" after a minute or so. I tried restarting my PC, adb, created new devices, even re-installed Android Emulator, but nothing worked.
Surprisingly enough, what worked though was to move the emulator out of Android Studio.
Go to Preferences -> search for Emulator -> Uncheck Launch in a tool window
I am using Mac M1 Pro with Android Studio Bumblebee | 2021.1.1
Open the AVD Manager.
Create a new AVD or edit an existing AVD.
In the Verify Configuration page, specify the Emulated Performance: Graphics change to sofware or hadware
good luck
I tried everything here and other questions too, but the only solution for me was to create a new AVD.
Also downgraded from Pixel3XL to Pixel2, not sure if it matters. (Kept same android version)
I am following this tutorial first time ever working with android:
https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/creating-project.html
I created a new project, made no changes except to drop a webView in the middle of the main view.
Then I clicked run app and selected the default profile, which was a nexus 5.
The console showed that the app built in 2 seconds.
Then... nothing, no app, no emulator popped up,
The two tabs, "app" and "nexus" show:
app:
Waiting for device.
~\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\tools\emulator.exe -avd Nexus_5_API_21 -netspeed full -netdelay none
nexus:
emulator: device fd:772
HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode
There is nothing on the UI that indicates that anything is happening at all.
In windows task manager, it shows emulator.exe with 0% cpu and 2gb memory.
I have checked other posts, and I definitely do have the Intel HAXM installed
Where can I even begin troubleshooting what went wrong?
The default emulator is very slow, and it may start for a long time. Many developers are using alternative emulators. The best one, is Genymotion. It's free, and really fast. If you want know more, read about it here, and how to install it here.
Here's a video instruction, how to install it.
Try reducing memory size and try other system images
most of the time intel x86 atom system image works perfectly
Make sure your HAXM driver is the latest.
Check to see if there are any updates in the SDK Manager.
The emulator can't load HAX
I recomend you to use GenyMotion emulator.
It's simple to install and use.
Intel Haxm have many problems . You should try to use https://www.genymotion.com/#!/
Its a free, limitated and fast emulator, work with Haxm, and have plugin for Android Studio, and many predefined devices for working with that.
Because the emulator was really slow I installed the intel x86 emulator. I changed the settings in my emulator (ARM to intel atom). Now when I run a project it takes me to the emulator selection screen and when I select it, the project starts running, but the emulator doesn't pop up.
I tried switching the cpu back to ARM, but it still doesn't work.
When I close Android studio it asks me if I want to disconnect from the project so I'm sure it is running.
I came across a few posts that said to give the device 768 ram, but that didn't work.
Anyone knows a solution?
I was facing the exact same issue, but for me reducing the device RAM to 768 did fix it. Therefore I'd suggest continuing to decrease the RAM values and trying to launch it.
How about to use Rock speed Emulator - Genymotion?
I know it sometimes take time to launch emulator and launch app in emulator too. But it depends on your configuration of your PC and settings you have done in Eclipse or Android Studio.
For example: You may have kept "Build Automatically" ON and it sometimes slow down running time.
My current rep is not high enough yet to comment on another answer, so I am adding a new "answer" to +1 Paresh Mayani's answer to use Genymotion. I only recently discovered it and found it to be much much faster than the emulator. Instead of emulation it runs an Android rom in a VM using VirtualBox. I've found that it runs full speed on my machine and is just as fast in debug mode as normal mode, which is impressive since even my Nexus 5 struggles when connected to a debugger.
In my case also x86 was creating problem, I installed Android 5.0.1 armeabi-v7a and have set 768MB as RAM size and it worked.
Try to check and run the emulator ie. store a snapshot for faster startup...
I have tried that by checking the button and works fine.
If you're using an AMD machine try using the "ARM EABI v7 system image". For an intel chip use the "APIs Intelx86 Atom system image". Also, try a different tablet from the Android Studio settings e.g(Nexus 6), as the API level might not be supported from in the Nexus5 VM. You will also have a little wait time for the android emulator, mine takes about 7mins
Using Eclipse (4.2.1) with Android SDK and Virtual Device Manager installed, I'm able to successfully launch the emulator with a device image, run code, etc, etc - however, if I close the emulator any subsequent attempts to restart it fail with the following error:
emulator: Failed to open the hax module
HAX is not working and emulator runs in emulation mode
If I recreate the virtual device and overwrite the existing definition, it will start again (but just the one time). Running OSX 10.8.2, and the AVD is 4.2, Level 17.
Any ideas what's going on here?
Feh... figured it out. I have multiple screens and the issue only happens after I move the emulator to one of the secondary monitors. In that case, a negative position value is getting written to emulator-user.ini. Deleting the file fixes the problem (or just leaving the emulator on the main laptop screen).
Found it in this issue on code.google.com
