Steps:-

1) Go to File Explorer (if it not there then add file explorer from Windows->Show views->File Explorer)

2) Push Images into mnt->SDcard

3) How to push? Click on icon(Push a file into device) on right side of screen in Eclipse.

3) After pushing file, go to dev tools in emulator. In that go to Media Scanner.

4) After scanning your images are display in galary of emulator.

  • Dev tools keeps on crashing. It asks me insert albums count and on click to scan or insert it keeps on crashing. Hopeless.. – MobileEvangelist Dec 07 '17 at 14:37
  • Hi @MobileEvangelist same issue is happening with me. My DevTool keeps crashing while scanning. Did you find any solution for this? If yes can you please post here? – Sudip Feb 01 '18 at 08:54

This only works on Genymotion (Android Emulator)

You can easily do this by Dragging any image to emulator screen from PC and it will transfer from PC's path to emulator downloads folder.

  1. Start any emulator from AVD Manager.

  2. Switch to DDMS mode

  3. Select File Explorer in the coming tabs.. You can see the folders and files in emulator.

  4. Select sdcard or mnt/sdcard.

  5. There is a push icon in right top of file explorer window. Clisk that button.

  6. Select your image.

  7. Scan your sdcard in

emulator -> devtools -> media scanner/media provider -> scan sdcard

Done..!!!

Before all that, you have to provide sd card support to your emulator.
