Android Emulator not loading on netbeans

Question

I just downloaded the android sdk from the adnroid site and followed this tutorial to set it up on netbeans. Everything to seem to have installed fine but whenever i try to run the application this window pops up:

What I am assuming it asking me to choose the emulator, but it is not showing up on the list. Is there a reason why?

Answer 1

I don't use netbeans, but it looks like you don't have any AVD's created, and if you do, then there is probably a way to associate them that you are missing in netbeans. You can check here to create an AVD http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/avd.html

But I would just use eclipse if possible, the integration works really well, and it was written to run in eclipse, so there are less issues and hurdles.

Also see Running Your Application section of http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/other-ide.html that will describe how to launch the app from the tools outside of the IDE.

Answer 2

I have the same problem with you. But i have my emulator works now. Are you have to do is running your Android SDK Manager, then click Virtual devices, and Make new AVD device. Click New. Then fill name, and select Target (Platform of your Android), Skin, and hardware. Then click Create AVD to finish.

Now you have device to choose. :)

Answer 3

go in C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\SDK Manager.exe and create the virtual device. After it appear in device list. Thats it.

Answer 4

Open Sdk manager

Tool Manage AVD

Select and start AVD. wait open.

Goto netbean Run project.

U must see project run in AVD.

Success..

Answer 5

The article at the link @broschb had posted is explaining how to create an AVD using command line. Do exactly what is says there (it's very easy). Once you have created the AVD it will appear in the AVD list in Netbeans. Actually, if you have only one AVD it will start by default when you run your app.

Answer 6

run the avd manager which is location in the android-sdk folder and then create a new avd,but be sure you have already downloaded ARM EABI system image tool set.
