When my android sdk update to newest version, i met the issue is : I cannot type text into Android Emulator by using computer keyboard, and I cannot use Android Emulator keyboard (the keyboard that next to the screen).
If I want to input some text, I must use this : click to textfield where I want to type. It will go to screen with virtual keyboard (as a real mobile phone), and click the character I want.
This annoy me because make me slower when debug an app. Please help me, how to type directly using keyboard.
Thanks :)
Add "Keyboard support" to your emulator hardware:
On Eclipse, go to Window > AVD Manager
Choose your emulator > Edit
Click "New" button in "Hardware" section
Select "Keyboard support" and change value to "Yes"
Finally, click on "Edit AVD" button.
Then you could input text to your emulator from your keyboard.
FYI - since I upgraded to sdk v14, I've had settings issues on the emulators. Leap's solution does work, but you might have to start and stop the emulator several times before these settings stick. No idea why that is ...

Android studio's device manager AVD manager works fine in old versions, but in 2021.1.1 version does not open!

Sdk manager everything updated
could anyone help?
I still have the same problem with the Bumblebee version, but for now you can use the Search Everywhere feature (you can access "Search Everywhere" by pressing double shift) and type in
"Virtual Device Manager"
then it will works.
This is a temporary solution for now.
I had the same problem, found the solution to return the icon to the toolbar, where it's easy to use it.
I guess it happans to anyone who upgrades from prvious version.
The idea is just to replace the "old" device manager with the new device manager created in 2021.1.1.
Right click the right side of the top toolbar and click the "Customize Menues and toolbars.
In the "Menus and Toolbar" window expand "Main Toolbar"
Expand "Android.MainToolBarActionGroup"
Press the "+" button in the top and select "Add Action..."
In the "Choose Action To Add" windows , search for "Virtual Device manager", select it and press OK.
You will see the the new icon is added.
To make sure it's working you can press OK to close this window and return to Android Studio main screen.
Now, you should have 2 similar icons in the toolbar, only the bubbles will be different.
The old is called "Device manager"
The new one is called "Virtual Device Manager"
Make sure it really works and opens the new Device Manager.
Once it is working , you can go back to the toolbar manger and delete the old icon.
Folow setps 1-3 above
Locate the "Android.RunAndroidAvdManager" item, select it and delete it by pressing the "-" button in the top of the screen.
Close this window and return to main screen.
Step 1: Select FILE (on the top left)
Step 2: Select PROJECT STRUCTURE (<Ctrl + Alt + Shift + S> on Windows/Linux).
Step 3: Select MODULES on the left under Project Settings.
Step 4: Hit the plus (+) button.
Step 5: Add ANDROID and hit OK Button.
Now you can open Device Manager
I too met this problem temp solution this that which wrote Zaid Salam
My version Android Studio -> Bumblebee 2021.1.1 Patch 1
My OS -> macOS Monterey
If you cannot seem to be able to right-click the toolbar as Yahalom mentioned, go to View > Appearance and select Toolbar.
The toolbar will move and a big space will be available on the right to right-click.
As pointed out by the answer above, the update from an older version does not replace the button action correctly.
But to fix it for me (Android Studio on Linux), I had to edit the Navigation Bar Toolbar rather than the Main Toolbar. As the IntelliJ docs mention, the main toolbar is hidden by default.
(Could not comment on the original answer yet, so I had to create a separate response)
Settings
IntelliJ 2019.2 (same issue in 2020.2)
elementary OS 5.1.7.
AZERTY bluetooth Keyboard (Logitech K260)
French Keyboard Layout
French Input method
No custom configuration made either in IntelliJ or in the OS
Problem
The "Move Line Up/Down" shortcut I was using on Windows (Shift + Alt + Up/Down) is not working.
Description
On intelliJ, I opened Settings/Keymap window to check the shortcut was correctly set.
When trying to redefine this shortcut, the "Alt" button was not detected when pressed.
However, I can use it on elementaryOS (e.g. Alt+Tab is working).
On intellij, I can use some other shortcuts like "Alt + Up".
My OS were recently installed.
I already tried to put UK layout/input method with no success.
Two ideas:
system settings : something i missed in keyboard settings ? Don't know much about linux configurations.
IntelliJ option i'm missing.
Thanks.
Finally found the issue.
On elementaryOS,
Go to your Keyboard settings, select "Layout" tab.
On "Switch layout" options, change the default shortcut "Alt + Shift".
Then I am able to reuse this specific shortcut in IntelliJ.
See the screenshot below to get more information:

Im using the latest Android Studio and VS Emulator version, I try to press F4 to Active or Inactive computer's keyboard input, That cant helped me so far.
See this Documentation:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/debug-test-perf/test-with-the-emulator
This is for future answer, because this is Underrated Issue.
Just press Alt + F4 and all will be worked.
Note : If you can't active or inactive the keyboard input, sometimes you need to spam it. Idk how its work, but in my issue, sometimes i try to press Win+F4, Alt+F4 (im not trolling, Alt+F4 doesnt close your Emulator), Fn+F4 or just F4. Just try that to Active. To inactive try to press Win+4, this will minimize your emulator then open it, and try, keyboard input will not worked again.
Description
I'm using some intellij products (WebStorm, PHPStorm) and Android Studio and have the same issue with both of theses.
I have an azerty keyboard, with a french layout.
I can type without issue in these softs, but I can't activate shortcuts.
When I try to activate a shortcut (e.g ctrl+z), the activated shortcut is ctrl+w.
the shortcut is correctly triggered, but with the wrong keyboard layout. It seems that when I type, my french keyboard is used, but when I want to use a shortcut, the english layout seems to be used.
Is this a known bug (if so, I've not found any mentions about it), or did I miss something?
What I've tried
I'm running on Fedora 29, with Gnome 3.
I've tried to see if it wasn't reproductible with others softs (e.g firefox/ vscode), and I can't reproduce this.
I've tried to see if it wasn't based on my keyboard settings, so I ran xev to monitor the output of pressed keys. I can't reproduce this issue.
In intellij settings, I've tried to set Keymap > Prefer key position over key char with national layout both true and false, it doesn't seem to change anything.
Current situation
Here is an exemple of a shortcut definition in Android Studio.
I pressed A to Y keys on my french keyboard (which output A,Z,E,R,T,Y), and then press the same keys with ctrl (which output ctrl+Q instead of ctrl+A and so on)
https://imgur.com/a/U4aFd7F
Expected situation (tl;dr)
I expect that when I press ctrl+a, the shortcut triggered inside intellij products is ctrl+a instead of ctrl+q
It is indeed a known bug: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-165950
In the bug report another workaround is mentioned for Gnome 3:
Re-order the languages in Settings > Language and Region tab, put English(US) first of the input source list.
I solved it by running setxkbmap fr. I don't know why this is required by intellij products, but it works.
When I'm creating a new project, the default preview device appears as Nexus 4. Is there a way to change it to some other device?
Recently I had the same issue.
It seems that you cannot use a device from the "virtual device" category. That way only the selected layout will be shown inside the chosen device.
In order to change the default device for all layouts you have to choose from some of the other categories (the ones inside the red rectangle):
I have chosen "6.0 1440 x 2560" from "Phone" and all my other layouts changed to this device (before I was selecting "Nexus6_API_29_Android" which was my virtual device, and I had to change it on every layout manually)
Same issue was appearing for me, when I was selecting device for preview from 'Virtual Device'.
To select device which will be default for preview when opening activities choose from these in picture, which are marked in red rectangles.
Change the preview device>>for example: nexus5x or others.
File--Export Setting, then choose a dictionary to save it. For example, I save it on my desktop, next you will see a settings.jar on your desktop.
File-Import Setting, choose the settings.jar.
Android Studio will want to restart itself, click OK
My English is very poor. I'm so sorry.
Maybe it works well. I'm not sure. You can try it.
The top answer covers most cases.
But if you want to use a custom made device you can also click on the Generic Phones and Tablets option, and choose your device from there.
You just need to follow few steps to do this
Step One
Open Any layout file from
App >> res >> layout directory
Step Two
go to the above red marking option
Then you will find the available devices for change
N.B. I am using Android Studio 3.6.2
Go to Run -> Edit Configurations. "Under Deployment Target Options", de-select "Use same device for future launches."
To prevent the same device from being used on subsequent previews, when you create a new project and run it in the AVD, do not select "use the same device."
