I have issues with the build in qemu emulator in Android Studio. There are some other Android emulators out there. How to configure Android Studio to use a different emulator? I use leapdroid emulator http://www.leapdroid.com to run apps and games.
Ok GoTo Studio menu bar at the top and go to tools->android->AVD Manager then a new pop up would appear for new device. now create a new one and then again press run button.
To start the Android Emulator and run an app in your project: In Android Studio, create an Android Virtual Device (AVD) that the emulator can use to install and run your app. In the toolbar, select the AVD that you want to run your app on from the target device drop-down menu. Click Run .
In Android Studio 3.5, need to click on the Emulator name which is the left option of Run 'app' button. You can select specific Emulator of your choice or multiple Emulator as well.
Leapdroid is compatible with Android adb, i.e., using the same port numbers starting with 5555, so there is really nothing special to do, pretty much same as what you do with the built-in Android emulator. If you run "adb devices", you will see a device named as "emulator-5554".
Here are the steps:
Make sure that you close all other emulators first, in case there are conflicts.
I've also attached two screenshots for clarifications:
There are options like:
