How do I restart an android emulator?

Question

I\'m basically trying to do this: Changing the Android emulator locale automatically

Everything works up until \'start\'. the emulator starts to boot but keeps loading

Answer 1

I'm pretty sure this will work:

• Clear/Wipe the AVD to defaults or create a new one.

• Start the AVD/Emulator from the CLI with the following command

  emulator -avd my_avd -prop persist.sys.language=en -prop persist.sys.country=GB
  

change as needed. That way you are not messing with the system image which can cause hangs/crashes. And you can easily set it on boot for a variety of Locales.
