Emulator For Android

I have wasted a whole day trying out different solutions floating around in SO and other place mentioned to enable wifi on the android emulator but to no avail.Can anybody help me figure out how do I enable internet on my android emulator?

Edit: This is the fix for a situation when the emulator's wifi has changed the DNS to some non-working DNS. While this works most of the time, there might also be other reasons which may not fix from this solution.

The older answers to this problem no longer work after 2020 (Using Android Studio 4.1.2 or newer). The problem is the DNS settings on the Emulator. It no longer works to just change the DNS Servers on your local PC. You have to change the DNS settings within the Emulator. The following steps are for an emulator running Android 11. Other versions will be similar:

@TheBaj : I figured the problem with this and fixed it. The problem is when you are connected through the router, the androidwifi in your emulator uses the settings and the sets the DNS to something other than 8.8.8.8 which is the google DNS(I presume this is kinda mandatory setting for the androidwifi to gain internet access). But if i change the DNS in my network settings, the google-services plugin which fetches your dependencies especially the one's getting downloaded from jcenter() will not be downloaded and hence your sync will fail which eventually fails your build.

On Mac OSX (Catalina for me), the problem is caused by the fact that the emulator automatically picks up the nameserver by looking at /etc/resolv.conf and picking the first one, in my case an IPv6 address. Source: -networking#dns

Maybe this would help someone. I tried all the solutions above. Changing DNS, cold booting, etc. After several hours of trial and error, I went to the official docs, which said that the emulator picks up the DNS config. of host machine at emulator's boot time.I had VMWare installed on my machine, which installs a few network adapters. So, I just changed the DNS config. of all the adapters (including VMWare adapters), and cold booted my emulator. OMG, the problem which didn't seem to go away for hours, just got right!

I hope I save someone a lot of pain, I tried everything everyone said on here, changed the DNS of every network adapter, reinstalled everything, the SDK, the emulator, even android studio, nothing worked, if you find yourself in the same position check if you VMware installed, if you do, don't bother with the DNS just go into Control Panel->Network and Sharing Center->Change Adapter Settings, and disable any and all VMware Network Adapters, then Cold Boot, fixes the issue instantly, you can even enable them later, and it still works

Just close your emulator and select the "Cold Boot Now" option on the drop menu adjacent to the play button. If not look for any of the more comprehensive options listed here, but I suggest always starting with the simplest solution.

For new searcher users:Sometimes VPN is your solutionChanging of network setting is not possible always because of networking issues.If you are in ip addresses that google does not responding for these regions,your solution is using of vpn.Use a proper vpn (a vpn that trough it you could update your android studio).When your vpn is on start your avd device (ofcourse api level of your emulator is important for example I have not any problem with api 22 but for api 28 is need using of vpn !).This was my experience about android emulator internet.

The Visual Studio Emulator for Android fits nicely into your existing Android development environment, with APK and file installation that is as simple as dragging and dropping items on the emulator screen. It also connects to Android Debug Bridge (ADB) so other popular Android development tools such as Eclipse and Android Studio can easily target the emulator.

Before doing the steps you need to delete the .lock folder under the C:\Users\user\.android\avd\yourEmulatorName\ path, To go there just simply click Show on Desk .Then -

Use the free Visual Studio Emulator for Android. It's very fast, and despite its name, does not require you to work in Visual Studio to use it. Android Studio and Eclipse happily detect it as the running emulator.

What helped me was to use a lower version of SDK in emulator, namely the SDK version 31 (image "S")Please note the date I'm writing this, if you are seeing this in the future try lowering your version acccordingly

You can get more information if you run emulator with the -verbose flag. I tried re-installing the system image (e.g. Android API 25 x86 w/ Google APIs), Android Emulator 25.3.1, and re-creating the AVD but nothing worked.

After that the emulator started right up. It's not ideal, but this was blocking my development so I had to get the emulator up and running again. I hope someone else will be able to figure out what broke in the configuration.

The problem is there are two emulators: one in $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/tools, another one in $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator. The one in $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/tools cannot start. Place $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator before $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/tools in your $PATH variable, it should fix the problem.

The real problem, at least over Ubuntu 16.10 and 17.04 and Andoid Studio 2.4 Preview 7 (but could happen with any Debian derivative and previous versions of Android Studio), is that Google is distributing a non working libstdc++ library with the emulator tools. They're distributing 6.0.18 version, but i found that the working one is 6.0.22.

IMPORTANT 2: This is only valid if your AVDs are configured for use your PC GPU as host for video accelaration (Hardware GLES 2.0). Selecting Sofware GLES 2.0 on your AVD will work without any of the suggested changes, but your emulator will turn painfully slow.

Go to Sdk/emulator/lib64/libstdc++ move libstdc++.so.6 and libstdc++.so.6.0.18 to myfolder (I created this) (or any other location) as backup and copy libstdc++.so.6, libstdc++.so.6.0.21 from usr/lib64; try again to launch your virtual device.

I have a need to install an Android emulator to support things via a VPN halfway across the country. But none that I have found work. And I've spent many days trying various settings and releases. So far, the best is Android x86 for kernel 4.9. But it ONLY works Sometimes, when I use the menu to select android without Acceleration.

FYI I do NOT want to run android within Windows or OSx for security reasons AND because the wireless network it needs to connect to should have NO production computing equipment on it. it is an IoT network only. Major reason for needing emulator is to configure and manage a pill dispenser, But also because I need to help someone with AV and other controls that she is having trouble managing herself (due to age).

I'm not entirety clear as to some of your requirements or terminology, for instance when you say emulator, do you mean running within an existing Ubuntu operating system VM, or as a standalone Android VM ? If I understand the requirements:

Also, If I let the android go to sleep, it goes to a black screen and NOTHING can revive it, short of powering off the VM and restarting. Unfortunately, Android does not let me configure it to NEVER sleep.

Also, I installed ubunto 22.04 lts in a vm because that loads open vmtools. Then installed android x86. But it hangs when booting to Android (sits at the console / # with a black screen. never gets to the android splash screen.

I knew someone was going to tell me Android isn't supported by vmware. But that is like telling me vmware doesn't support LibraOffice. It Does, because they both run on Linux, which it does support. If some form of the vmtools (open or vmware) can be loaded on the base linux, it would surely assist the operation of android or anything else that runs on top of it.

This is -android-x86-in-vmware-fusion/ guide is near perfect, but read/write should be ON not OFF, because most Android apps don't work on VM because Android is natively an ARM system, not x86. Most apps will have a libmain.so error appear when the app is attempted to be loaded, but there is a hack hat works but it involves putting a file (houdini.sys) in system/etc and running an executable file (native bridge). This can only be done if the system is read/write mode (read only configuration won't work and you can't change to read/write after you've installed your system).

The Windows Hypervisor Platform was introduced in the Windows 10 April 2018 Update and enables third-party virtualization stacks to utilize the Windows Hypervisor for hardware acceleration. If you are using Hyper-V, this stack replaces Intel HAXM as the hypervisor for the Android emulator.

To enable IDE support for the Android emulator, such as debugging, you must install an updated preview of the Visual Studio Tools for Xamarin. First, ensure you have Visual Studio 2017 version 15.8 Preview 1 or higher with the Mobile development with .NET (Xamarin) workload installed.

We need your help to make using the Google Android emulator with Hyper-V an amazing experience. Be sure to share your feedback in Visual Studio by going to Help > Send Feedback > Report a Problem if you experience any problems or strange behavior. Please provide the following information in your bug report:

Support for these technologies was initially available in the v27.3.8 Android Emulator canary release and today we are releasing this set of preview features (AMD processor & Hyper-V support) on the stable channel for more feedback. Alongside this update, we have added additional speed improvements in loading emulator snapshots for those developers using the Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (HAXM).

On Intel x86-based computers, the Android Emulator will continue to use Intel HAXM by default. Intel HAXM is a mature and open-sourced hypervisor solution developed by Intel. Thanks to on-going development by Intel, the fastest emulator performance on Windows is still with Intel HAXM. To download the latest Intel HAXM v7.2.0, check for updates in the Android SDK Manager. ff782bc1db
