D'pad Is disabled in emulator

问题

I am using android sdk 4.0.3 ,I have created an Emulator of it. Now I have a problem that the emulator is showing the Disabled DPAD Buttons .I have set up the Hardware keyboard present and display skin with buttons option in configuration.

So i just want to enable the Dpad Buttons on emulator

Every emulated device is based on a more or less real device, which you chose as '4.0" WVGA (480x800:hdpi)' this doesnt only concern the resolution of your emulated device bur also its hardware features. In the main screen of the avd-manager enter the tab that says device definitions. there you can edit your chosen device and you will find the dpad under input.

This sounds crazy, but it worked for me:

1. Launch a fresh emulator from the Android Virtual Device(AVD) Manager.
   Note: "DO NOT START THE DEVICE".
2. Find the configuration file, something like: ~/.android/avd/XXXX.avd/config.ini
   Notice that this directory has only one INI file.
3. Edit config.ini:
   change hw.dPad=no to hw.dPad=yes
4. The AVD Manager will still show dPad=no when you click on Details. It appears to not catch on until the virtual device is started. (Clumsy? yes)
5. Start the device. It should show DPAD without the complaint about it not being there.
6. The DETAILS button in AVD Manager should also show hw.dPad=yes

I ran into this while trying to bring up the "Snake" demo. It failed to run, asking to press the UP key -- and the pad didn't respond! After getting DPAD set, the demo can be controlled through the pad.

This appears to be a bug in the AVD Manager. If you get dPad set to 'yes', it can be set to 'no' through the AVD Manager. But changing 'no' to 'yes' requires the above workaround.

The virtual device folder has a config file , just like my Mac OS X and a VM(A17) :

~/.android/avd/A17.avd/config.ini

change

hw.dPad=no

to

hw.dPad=yes

I found this solution in a different file. I am using SDK version revision 20.

1. Create a fresh AVD from you AVD manager.
2. There is no option in AVD manager to enable DPAD. I tried even by clicking Edit.
3. Go to C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.android\avd\YOUR_AVD_NAME folder
4. Open hardware-qemu.ini file. Here you will get all hw config details.
5. There you will find hw.dPad = no; Change it to hw.dPad = yes and save the file
6. Restart your AVD and Voila !!! DPAD is now enabled in Emulator.

回答5:

Edit config.ini as

hw.dPad=no --> hw.dPad=yes

. Clone Device Definitions with enable keyboard

Enable Input -> Keyboard.

For your previous AVD, So you wouldn't face this problem anymore in the future.

You have to uncheck the hardware keyboard present option. It would then be enabled. So the option would be

Display a skin with hardware controls - true
Hardware keyboard present - false
