I have been messing around with android studio and I ended up installing cocos2dx and using an arm cpu emulator to work with cocos2dx. I have recently seen a message prompting for an update for the android emulator service so I installed it and now my emulator crashes while trying to boot and gives this error in the logcat - this is the error it gave me
19:36 Emulator: **
19:36 Emulator: ERROR:/buildbot/src/android/emu-3.0-release/external/qemu/fpu/softfloat.c:486:round_canonical: code should not be reached
19:36 Emulator: Warning: QObject::~QObject: Timers cannot be stopped from another thread ((null):0, (null))
19:36 ADB rejected shell command (getprop): closed
19:36 Emulator: Process finished with exit code 3
I have no idea what this means but I know it has something to do with the update I downloaded, is there any way to roll back the update maybe?
I've come across the same issue on Windows 10: the current version of Android Emulator (Nov 14, 2018: 28.0.16) crashes or freezes as soon as a virtual ARM device is started. When I start it from command line, it prints
Emulator: ERROR:/buildbot/src/android/emu-3.0-release/external/qemu/fpu/softfloat.c:486:round_canonical: code should not be reached
As a temporary solution, I downgraded the emulator to an older version and the problem disappeared.
Here you can find Android Emulator 27.2.9:
Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/emulator-windows-4773671.zip
Mac: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/emulator-darwin-4773671.zip
Linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/emulator-linux-4773671.zip
Steps to downgrade the emulator:
Stop all instances of the emulator and close Android Studio;
Open Android SDK directory. Its location can be found in the settings: Android Studio->File->Settings->Appearance & Behavior->System Settings->Android SDK->Android SDK Location;
Move existing 'emulator' directory somewhere outside of Android SDK (if you just rename and leave it there, AVD Manager will find it and start using again);
Unpack one of emulator-*-4266726.zip into the SDK directory;
Launch Android Studio and don't update Android Emulator until it's fixed.
