installing APK via ADB hangs the emulator

Question

I am trying to install an apk in the emulator using following command:

adb install xyz.apk

But it takes forever and then hangs the emulator.

I don't know what to do cause I have tried the following

1. Start the emulator with big partition size
   emulator @test -no-boot-anim -partition-size 256
   (same problem)

2. Install in a new emulator same result.

Please Help me. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Just increase internal storage of your emulator and try again. try to install apk after emulator working properly. I had same problem last week but i increased it to 512 and problem has been solved.

Hope it will help you.
