I working in Android Studio and I need some help regarding the emulators.

I want to start two emulators so I can use them the same time to test my application. Right now the problem is that when the second emulator loads everything just crashes.

How can I solve this?

Please help!

You can run multiple emulators at the same time simply by running your app again. When the AVD manager pops up, instead of selecting your already running emulator, click 'Launch Emulator' and select another emulator to launch.

HAX is not working and emulator runs in emulation mode This runs veeeeeerrrrrry slooooowwww And for emulator 1: HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode – Spoofy Mar 15 '15 at 21:48

    You may need to adjust how much memory you have allocated for HAX and make sure that both emulators are using only the available memory. I can't use HAX right now because of a BIOS issue. Sorry I can't be more help. – user3261297 Mar 17 '15 at 17:52

  • Can I use the same local server for both emulators? – Bargain23 Apr 28 '18 at 19:21

It's simple, if you already downloaded in the AVD a system image, just create another emulator with that same image, not need to download another one, change the name of that device and start one app in one emulator and the other in the other one
