I need some help in displaying the actual device in Android Studio. At the moment I can only see the screen of the device but not the rest of the device.
I have attached an image so you can see what I mean.
It is not emulator it is design view for layout

The Android Studio version of Bumblebee seems only to support the Android 11+ versions to connect devices through Wi-Fi wirelessly and pare devices through paring code.
But I currently only have a Samsung Galaxy Note4, which is the version of Android 6.0.1.
How can I connect to Android Studio and run Android Apps on my Note4? Please provide some learning resources or support, thanks a lot !!
On the top right corner of Android Studio, you see this toggle list, and click on "Troubleshoot Device Connections".
Find "Troubleshoot Device Connection" on the top right corner toggle list
After that, follow the given steps to "Rescan Devices", and "Enable USB Debugging". Then you'll see your device appears in the toggle list. If not, press "Restart ADB(Android Debug Bridge) server" to find your device.
Steps provided by Troubleshoot Device Connection
Finally, press Finish to complete the task.
All in all, when I tried to find out how can I connect my old old version of the Android device to the AS, I got nothing on the internet. So I asked this question here, but eventually, I fix it on my own.
So I hope this question helps.
I know this question has been asked before, but the answers are for older versions of Android Studio.
When I try creating a new virtual device, I no longer see a checkbox for "Enable Device Frame" and the emulator shows the frame by default. How do I hide it?
This has an answer here:
How to remove the device's frame on Visual Studio Emulator?
Open Android Device Manager from Visual Studio.
While your device is powered off, click the "..." in the top right corner
Select "Show in explorer"
Edit the file "config.ini"
Remove the skin.name and skin.path properties and save file
Start the device!
Image of the result
In my emulator option to hide frame is available here - try on your, and see if you have this potion
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
My basic goal is that I'd like to be able to take screenshots of my Android tablet via Android Studio which is running on my Windows laptop.
I gather I need Dalvik Debug Monitor Server (DDMS) to do this, however I'm struggling to find it within Android Studio.
All the guides I've read so far mention that you simply click on the DDMS menu button in the toolbar. This seems to appear like a green android robot.
Well, I have the android robot and so I click on that. The tooltip for the button says 'Android Device Monitor', nothing to do with DDMS.
And then normally says 'Android Monitor is already running' and does nothing. But all I have on my screen is Logcat and Monitors tab. I can't see the same stuff that I usually see on DDMS screenshots.
Occasionally it will throw an error which appears in the log files (but too big to post here)
How can I fix this?
Ok, officially dumb.
The DDMS was opening up in the background of another monitor.
Carry on...
I have an app which is working fine, but whenever I go to Android Device Monitor, there is nothing in both devices and DDMS
What should I do so that my project is displayed?
I had the same problem. This worked with the first device created and not with a second device : DDMS showing empty file explorer for online emulator. I deleted all devices and recreated a new one and it works. I think that only a single device can be run with debugging
You need to run your Application first and then run the Android device monitor, it should populate the tabs after that.
I am building an Android Application using Android Studio.
I want my layout to be as precise as possible, however, it seems that the list of Android Virtual Devices where we can render the layout to is limited to Nexus Devices as shown in this screenshot below:
and the "Generic Phones and Tablets" do not have much screen size and resolution variety, so I decided to add my device definition as such:
However, it did not appear in the devices that Android Studio can render a layout to in the Design view of a layout.
Solved
After restarting Android Studio, the newly created AVD (Samsung Galaxy Note 1) now appeared in my list of devices that I can preview the rendering to when I view my layout.
I think all I had to do was to restart Android Studio for it to appear. It works now.
The solution to this, is to restart Android Studio. The new devices should appear at the bottom of the list.
For others having similar issues, you may want to check the API level of your AVDs vs the compileSDK of your project. I've found that, at least for Wear OS AVDs, my devices that target an earlier API don't show up. Once I made them the same as my compile SDK version, they showed up.
