Samsung Galaxy Note emulator

I am trying to create emulator for Samsung Galaxy Note. But it is not working.

I tried the following config

  • sdk r17
  • platform 2.3.3
  • resolution 1280x800
  • density 320

Emulator skin is comeup. But it doesn't have any navigation keys (menu, back and home keys). Also no keyboard displayed.

I also tried with platform 4.0.3. Same problem there. Emulator comes up without any keys.

For Galaxy Tab I use Samsung addon. So no problem with emulator. But I couldn't' find any addon for Galaxy Note.

What is skin in Android emulator?

An Android emulator skin is a collection of files that define the visual and control elements of an emulator display. If the skin definitions available in the AVD settings don't meet your requirements, you can create your own custom skin definition, and then apply it to your AVD.

I have created a Galaxy Note AVD skin, which you can download from GitHub (direct download) with credits to Heiko Behrens, whose article you can refer to understand how to use it.

In short, you can simply extract the zip file to the < PathToAndroidSDK >/platforms/android-X/skins/ directory (were X is the API level of the SDK you want to use - in case of 2.3.3, it would be 10). You can then create the AVD from a freshly started AVD manager which will show "Galaxy Note" skin for that API level.
