Error Message: emulator-arm.exe has stopped working

Question

I have been having issues running my first android app. Yesterday, i came close to running it but my happiness was dashed when i encountered this error:

emul         


        

Answer 1

i found tht using the avd manager to delete and recreate the virtual device without checking the snapshot enabled check box while creating the avd works. i found this on google group for android. although this issue hasnt been resolved, this method can be used as a workaround for this problem until this bug is fixed

Answer 2

Two options worked for me: 1. Changing the emulator resolution. I don't know why, but if I change it, it just works. 2. Changind the "Number of emulated web cameras" variable to 0 in AVD.

Thank you very much for the help!!

Answer 3

After some minutes searching Google and eventually Stackoverflow I finally came across a fix. Only way for reliably generate the crash during my experimentation was changing RAM size to 128 and in fact, many crashes depend on 2 problem:

• PC Ram is less or equal to one defined in AVD. You must set it lower depending on your hardware RAM.
• Also, some graphic and OpenGL issues found that can be fixed by changing default display to HVGA or setting a lower resolution in AVD.

Good luck!

Answer 4

emulator-arm.exe is not working due dual graphic card. select the basic graphical card not high performance one and is going to work. I have nvidia 555M and as bases Intel. Using intel the emulator starts.

Answer 5

Marking "Use Host GPU" checkbox worked for me.

Answer 6

Finally solved this for me after trying all the options above. There is a solution at AndroidDevelopers on Google Plus.

If you want to have graphics acceleration enabled by default for this AVD, in the Hardware section of the AVD configuration, click New, select GPU emulation and set the value to Yes.
