Question

I’m having a recent issue since two days ago. Before that I was running the android emulator (API versions 8 y 15) without any significative delay. But since these two days the starting up of the emulator has turn into unbearable time delay, the fifteen API version lasts around two hours, and the eight API version could delay more than 8 hours.

I have tried to reinstall the SDKs, erasing the AVDs without results. I have enabled the snapshot option, but the mentioned delay keeps the work awfully slow.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

try to use the following:

emulator.exe -cpu-delay 0 -no-boot-anim -avd avd

or to use gfx acceleration

emulator -avd <avd_name> -gpu on

if that wont work, give http://www.android-x86.org/ a chance 😉

As u already enabled the snapshot option, I dont have to name it again.
