Answer 1

You probably need to allocate more internal memory to your emulator. This can be done by:

1. Opening Android Virtual Device Manager...

2. Edit the device you're having a problem with.

3. Show Advanced Settings (see yellow arrows below)

4. Increase the internal storage to 5120MB

5. Restart the emulator (cold boot)
