Android Virtual Device Manager: Cannot create AVD

Question

When I try to create an AVD in the AVD manager, I can't get the OK button un-greyed.

My problem sounds similar to AVD Manager - Cannot Create Android Virtual Device but sadly the solution is not the same, or it would be fixed already. I checked the answer offered here, and I have already installed ARM EABI v7a System Image .

From what I've read so far, I suspect the problem is that my CPU/ABI dropdown list is empty.

Unfortunately, I haven't figured out what to do to fix that.

Update: I've found that I can fill the CPU/ABI dropdown by selecting one of the preset phone types.

Answer 1

If I select one of the pre-set options in the Device dropdown, all of the other fields autofill. It is possible to create new Device types using the Device Definitions tab of the AVD Manager.
