Emulator not working in Android Studio Dolphin - android-studio

I'm using AS 2021.3.1.17 on Windows 10.
My emulator is Pixel 3a with API 28 (Pie).
Whenever I try to run my code, it says "gradle build finished" and "launch succeeded" but the emulator page still says "No emulator are currently running."
I've tried:
reinstalling AS
updating the gradle plugin to 7.4
wiping the emulator data
cold boot
deleting it and making a new one
changing graphics from 'automatic' but it's disabled and unclickable
I've tried both solution on here and both doesn't work either.

Sometimes the Android Studio emulator does not work.
It is better to use similar software like GenieMotion along with the emulator.
In general, my suggestion is to migrate from Windows to Linux, Linux does not have many problems and your emulator works most of the time.
But be sure to use other emulators and don't limit yourself to your Android Studio emulator

Android Studio Emulator no more considering Swipes on Notebook Touchscreens as Input

I upgraded to Android Studio Bumblebee 2021.1.1 and realized that I cannot fully control the emulator with the touchscreen of my notebook anymore. Press events on the touchscreen (like mouse clicks) are still recognized correctly, but when I swipe nothing happens in the emulator.
Unfortunately, I did not note down the previous version of Android Studio that I had installed before, but with previous Android Studio versions I was always able to fully control the Android emulator via the touchscreen (as if I was actually testing my app on a real mobile phone).
My Google searches did not show any results related to this issue. Does anyone have an idea what the root cause could be and if it is possible to fix it?
Disabling launch in tool window in Settings::Tools::Emulator fixed it for me (requires emulator restart to take effect).

Stuck at the "waiting for all target devices to come online" message even though emulator is already running Android Studio 4.2.2

I am having trouble running an .apk file on an emulator in android studio (4.2.2). I am using an M1 chip Mac so I've chosen the S api with arm64 CPU. I cannot seem to get android studio to recognize the emulator is running. I've attached an image to show that the emulator is running properly . Any help would be appreciated! I've tried wiping the emulated data as well as reinstalling the emulator. For reference I am using Andoid Emulator version 30.7.5 and Android SDK tools version 30.0.2.
Wiping emulator data solved it for me

How to run Android Studio emulator on M1 Mac?

I'm having a devil of a time using the Android Emulator on my new M1 Mac. My Android project compiles fine, and I can run it on a hardware device. But I'm not able to run it on the Emulator.
I followed instructions carefully, and set up an arm64-based emulator running API 31. When I press the "Run" button in Android Studio, the emulator opens and boots normally. However, Android Studio is never able to launch my app on it. I see a message "Waiting for all target devices to come online", and that's it.
I have of course tried restarting the emulator, restarting Android Studio, rebooting my computer, and wiping the data from the emulator. I have also made sure that Developer mode is enabled in the emulated Android environment and "USB Debugging" is turned on.
Another suggestion I saw was to un-check "Enable ADB Integration" in Android Studio. This option doesn't exist in my copy of Android Studio, although I did some further research and found that it is now called "Use libusb backend" instead. It is unchecked by default. I tried checking it anyway, and that didn't help.
I'm at a loss as to what to do next. I really need to be able to test my app in the emulator as my inventory of physical devices is fairly limited.
Thanks,
Frank
Download Android Studio Preview, create emulator (API 30 or S), now you can use emulator on both preview or stable Android Studio.

emulator not showing up on android studio

I've searched all over the web for the past 3 days and can't seem to find a solution. I've done everything mentioned in this post:
Android emulator not showing in Visual Studio
It seems all the 'working' solutions to this problem has been stated in what this guy says he did in his original post, including restarting ADB server (kill and start), restarting my computer, reinstalling emulator and HAMX, installing and running as an admin, changing the timeout delay, reinstalling almost everything, making sure my emulator is installed, etc.
It keeps saying Gradle build finished in 475ms, etc and then waiting for target device to come online for like 5-10 minutes and nothing happens. No emulator shows up. I can't seem to find the solution to this and I am on the verge of giving up, I really need Android Studio to work so I can start on my app.
Can I please get some guidance with this?
If it's relevant, I'm using a Mac.
Have you tried this. Go to the emulator settings and set the Graphics Emulation mode to Software GLES. The default mode will be automatic. I am not sure how it works, but that worked for me on two Linux machines. Being software emulation, the performance of the emulator will not be as good as when using hardware graphics. It seems to be a bug with the SDK.
For me the only thing that worked in macos was to disable docker before starting Studio.
Wipe the data of your Android virtual Device and then start the emulator.
I was using Android studio 4.2 and faced this issue.
No Solutions worked for me so I just erased android studio files. Updated to Android Studio Arctic Fox.

Android Emulator won't start after Android Studio 2.0 upgrade

I recently upgraded Android Studio to 2.0 (Windows) which broke the emulator.
The symptom is that the emulator starts a (single thread) process that takes about 100% of its CPU. Nothing shows on the screen.
Of course, this worked like a charm before the update.
Few things I tried:
Used an AVD created before and after the update
Increased AVD memory to 1G
Delete / Install Android Studio
Used different CPU Architecture (Arm & x86)
Used different versions of API (21 & 23)
I had the same problem I had to reinstall android studio all over again, After that open your SDK monitor press on launch stand alone SDK manager, There scroll down and check if the emulator is installed properly if not install it.
I hope this answer helped you since that's what I did and it works.
A temporary solution:
Go into the AVD Manager, select the Virtual device, and click "Edit"
Find "Emulated Performance" -> Graphics, and switch that from auto (or hardware) to Software.
It won't have quite the performance, but this worked for me. Seems to be that Android Studio 2.0 doesn't play well with certain graphics cards or something.
