I am using Android studio 1.0.1
. Using Genymotion + virtual box (2.3.1)
.I have downloaded nexus 4
(Android Lollipop) device. Whenever i am trying to open the device , it comes on the screen, shows "android" and stay in the same position. It doesn't open ever. I have tried with nexus 7
and even with a Custom device. It is happening only for "Lollipop" devices, others devices like KitKat is running very good.
It has a very simple user interface and one can directly use it from Android Studio by installing its plugin only once. The Genymotion plugin for Android Studio allows testing the application developed with the Android Studio IDE. It uses ADB to connect to any active virtual device and push the application.
Genymotion is an Android Emulator that is faster than the Android Studio Emulator. Genymotion emulator offers a wide range of virtual devices for development, test, and demonstration purpose. It has a very simple user interface and one can directly use it from Android Studio by installing its plugin only once.
So to download Genymotion please go to this site. Then click on the “Download Genymotion Personal Edition” button. Note: Please sign in yourself to Genymotion if you have already not an account on Genymotion. Step 2: In the next step click on the button as your requirement.
Seems like the genymotion is not able to read login credentials and personal use license from the file in our non-root user directory. That is why it was asking me to login everytime I started genymotion.
