I am new to android app developing, I am trying to run my android application in AVD available in eclipse but the thing is I'm unable to create a new AVD. (Previously a AVD was there in eclipse but it was not worked as fast, so i deleted that)

Its possible to fill all the necessary fields given for creating a new AVD, finally when OK button is clicked there is no action performed in eclipse IDE.

Can anyone know whats exactly blocking me from creating a new AVD. Here is my screenshot.

  • In case this is useful to anyone: give it a couple of minutes at least to complete. I thought it was a bug and found this page but it actually worked after that time with no indication it was doing anything. Also note that the avds are linked to a user as I found trying to run avd as root. – pasx Jan 30 '16 at 03:48

I was also facing trouble to create AVD on my eclipse. Although my real device Galaxy S3 is working nicely as online AVD. I needed to download & install the correct driver for that and it started to do the job. But I am still searching for the real reason of the problem creating the virtual one. But here is the cofig, what is working for me now, after a long time trying.

After facing problem, first of all I installed all the package file including the Intel X86 Atom System Image for my required Android Version(For me it's Android 4.3 API 18). So that I can select the Intel Atom x86 as the CPU/ABI while creating the AVD.SELECT THE RIGHT PACKAGES

And don't forget to install the Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator(HAXM) installer under the Extras on Android SDK Manager.intel x86

Here, what was my config for the AVD

  1. Device=Nexus 7 (7.02)
  2. Target=Android 4.3
  3. CPU/ABI=Intel Atom (x86)
  4. SKIN=HVGA
  5. RAM=2048
  6. HEAP=64
  7. Internal Storage=2000
  8. External=2000
  9. Emulation Options=Tick on "Use Host GPU"

And please keep patience, as it will take a while to start the AVD.enter image description here
