Can the current android release run on a full hd device/ emulator. I tried setting the emulator resolution to 1920×1080 but it doesn’t work. The emulator window opens but android doesn’t begin booting. Actually nothing higher than HD ready(1280 × 720) works.
I have read this old thread making-android-emulator-work-for-1600×1200 that “gingerbread, maximum resolution will be 1280×760”. I haven’t found anything like this on the android site, plus there been Honeycomb release in the mean time. Is it true that we can’t test android apps for 1920×1080 screens?
If it’s possible how can it be done. I’ve also tried android x86 in a virtual box and it has the same resolution limitation. While the Google TV add-on supports FULL HD resolution it doesn’t support NDK which I need.
As you can see in this SO post, the emulator can’t handle this resolution. I’ve tried this with my up-to-date emulator&sdk, the problem still exists.
With Android-x86 and Virtualbox it is possible to raise the resolution. When I’ve set the uvesa_mode to 1920×1080, but the started VM ran only on 1580×1080.
