I have developed an Android App that runs fine on emulator & on device. Now I´m trying to develope a Widget but I am unable to see it on emulator. I searched in this forum and I found this thread Android 4.0: widgets not appearing? where JamieB had posted a solution that worked for me when running widget on device but emulator does not show yet the widget.

I found too another threads where people posted that "go to widget list and launch widget from there", but I cannot see widget list on my emulator which leads me to think that something I am doing wrong when creating the AVD.

I´m using 4.4W platform, 20 API level.

Is there a special way to create an AVD in order to see "widget list" on it? Any help would be appreciated.

use avd with api level19 4.4. api20 4.4W is kitkat for watches and it gave me also many headaches like you because it's designed for wear devices like watches.

  • Yes, it worked! I have installed 4.4.2 platform API 19 then I have created a new AVD and now I can see it like a real cell phone with its menus, buttons and widgets too. Thank you so much, I wasted a long of time on this issue. But anyway it is a rare thing, API 20 should have this also in addition to support for wear devices. – user3898953 Aug 01 '14 at 14:52
