I need help with the AVD-Settings for my new Virtual Device.
I need the settings for an AVD that has the same size like the new Samsung Galaxy S3.
The Android emulator is an Android Virtual Device (AVD), which represents a specific Android device. We can use the Android emulator as a target device to execute and test our Android application on our PC. The Android emulator provides almost all the functionality of a real device.
Run your app on the emulatorIn the toolbar, select the AVD that you want to run your app on from the target device drop-down menu. Click Run. The emulator might take a minute or so to launch for the first time, but subsequent launches will use a snapshot and should launch faster.
I created one based of the stats that GSM arena states (http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9300_galaxy_s_iii-4238.php).
So, for a completely stock device, I used the following specs:
For one with update to JellyBean, all values are the same except as follows: - Name: Samsung_Galaxy_S3_JellyBean - Target: Android 4.1 (Api level 15)
When starting the AVD, If you want to scale to the original size, the real screen size is 4.8 inches with a density of 306 px/inch.
Some of these settings have to be set up on the "Device Definitions" tab for the newer SDK.
Screen Size (in): 4.8
Resolution (px): 720 x 1280
Sensors: Accelerometer, Gyroscope, GPS, Proximity Sensor
Cameras: Front, Back
Input: Keyboard (Checked), No Nav
RAM: 1024 MiB
Size: Normal
Screen Ratio: long
Density: xhdpi
Buttons: Hardware
When you try to start the virtual device it should ask you for the real DPI in the "Launch Options" dialog window.
Screen Size (in): 4.8
Monitor dpi: 306
Scale: 1.00
