Android: failed to allocate memory

Question

I\'m trying to create an emulator with 2047 mb ram. When I run it, I get this error:

[2011-02-22 14:24:14 - Emulator]
[2011-02-22 14:24:14 - Emulator] This a         


        

Answer 1

I was getting "failed to allocate memory: 8" errors as well. I have W7-64bit and 8GB of RAM. I found that by running AVD "as Administrator" the error disappeared, allowing the emulator to launch.

Answer 2

I also get this error. Use RAM 512.

Answer 3

Solution is that you go and edit the config file for that perticuler avd in .android folder in your user folder in c drive with RAM = 1024 MB instead 1024

The problem is MB is not there...

Answer 4

I changed my monitor's DPI settings from the launch options of AVD and syncronized it with the original and current setting of my monitor, and it works for me.

Answer 5

I had the same issue but before I got the issue it asked me to capture a video source. I disabled the camera support and I was able to use 1024MB of RAM. Using Windows 64bit, Xoom (Android 3.0). i hope this helps for anyone with the same problem.

Answer 6

Simple computer reboot helped me after I installed HAXM and got that error :)
