I'm trying to create my first ever (Android) app using Eclipse.

I've almost set up the AVD for the Samsung Galaxy SII (thanks to another question - Samsung Galaxy S II AVD (Android Virtual Device) Basic Settings?), but I am still encountering a problem, which prevents me from getting it to work.

Whenever I try and launch the simulator (using the AVD Manager), the following message comes up:

Starting emulator for AVD 'AVD_for_Samsung_Galaxy_SII_1'

emulator: ERROR: unknown skin name 'galaxy_s2'

I have a feeling it might be to do with where various files are stored/the directory where my Eclipse is set up. Any advice on how to resolve this?

Thanks in advance!

  • Did you point to your android-sdk directory? Another idea is to create a custom emulator build. Saw it [here](http://stackoverflow.com/q/11894396/645270). – keyser Aug 12 '13 at 22:06

Have you downloaded the skin into the skins folder? (..sdk directory.../platforms/android-10/skins)

  • While this link may answer the question, it is better to include the essential parts of the answer here and provide the link for reference. Link-only answers will not be of any use if the external linked page changes in future – Panther May 11 '15 at 08:36
  • @Robert I agree with Panther, you may find the skins through the [link](http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/list.do?pi=1&ps=10&pb=Y&ct=CT350000&sc=) above or you can check Samsung Developers website. – Parker May 11 '15 at 11:27
