Android Question Unable to create AVD

aeric · Jul 17, 2018

May I know what is the reason I can't create AVD? I have installed the recommended items in SDK Manager.

Do you get the same error with all screen sizes?

Hi Erel, Yes. I tried with all screen sizes.

Have a look on this thread.

Thanks. For the time being I just use my real device connect using B4A Bridge.

Maybe this is the problem.

So I created a batch file saved it as "My_Emulator.bat" and put on desktop for quick launch.

B4X:

cd C:\Aeric\Android-sdk\tools

emulator -avd 4in_Phone_Platform_24_default -skin 480x854

This opens a command line window. Terminate using Ctrl+X and Ctrl+C.

I found this command launches the emulator in longer screen compare with launching the emulator using B4A AVD Manager.

I decided to clean a little my PC.
So I made 'fresh' installation of Redstone 4 (Windows 10, April 2018 update) and began to install latest releases: Java 10.0.2, Android Studio 3.1.3, B4A 8.30.
I used latest SDK tools package (4333796) and exactly this was a problem.
I installed all recommended software in SDK manager, but AVD manager did not want to create AVDs at all (and also didn't see AVDs, which I created in Android Studio).

I decided to install old sdk-tools (3859397, dated March 2017). AVD manager began to create AVD. But it did not want to see AVDs from Android Studio. After some experiments I found a solution - it's necessary to install corresponding system image in B4A SDK Manager.

For example, in Android Studio I created "Nexus 5X API 25" AVD. In B4A SDK manager it's necessary to install Google APIs Intel x86 Atom System image (Android 25).
