Unable to start API 29 emulator (Android 10)

Question

As the title says, I have tried to create an Android 10 emulator, when trying to start the emulator nothing happens, only the phone appears on the screen but the device screen remains black, I do not get any error, I have waited but nothing ever happens. When I touch the close button I get "The emulator process for AVD Pixel_4_API_29 was killed"

I have tried deleting the image and downloading it again, installing the image on Pixel 1, 2, 3 and 4, run emulator with -writable-system, increase RAM, cold boot... unsuccessfully.

I have the rest of the emulators installed (from API 16 to API 30) working fine

The image I downloaded from Android Studio is located at "C:\Users\PCDELL\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\system-images\android-29\google_apis_playstore\x86"

Upgrade

I tried with:

API 29 x86_64 (Google Play)

API 29 x86 (Google APIs)

API 29 x86_64 (Google APIs)

API 29 x86_64 (Android Open Source Project)

The result is the same

Answer 1

after multi tries i backed to version 30.7.4 and it worked fine down it from this link

https://dl.google.com/android/repository/emulator-windows_x64-7453540.zip

and extract it in sdk folder after deleting old emulator folder

Answer 2

After many tests the only thing that worked for me was:

1. Uninstall Intel Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (HAXM) version v7.7.0
2. Enter https://github.com/intel/haxm/releases and download HAXM v7.4.1
3. Install HAXM v7.4.1

I suppose that a not so old version could work but I went to the extremes and downloaded the oldest one from the link

*I have the latest version of Android Studio (4.2.2) and also the latest version of the emulator (30.7.5)

Answer 3

If you are not forced to use specifically Pixel 4 with API 30, then what worked for me was going down to Pixel2 API 30. I know this is not much help if you are looking for a specific device but...

Answer 4

Change a workable AVD to API 29. In my case, I setup a AVD in API 26, then change it to 29.

It is not a solution, but API 29 can load. I did try some of answers about this problem, but not work. Even un-install windows and Android Studio 2020.3.1, then install. It still not load.
