I just opened a new project in Android Studio, but the preview screen isn’t working. It should show “Hello World!” right now, but it’s blank. When I go to other projects I’ve completed, the preview doesn’t show up there either.
I’ve reinstalled the program and I’m googling ways to fix the problem. If anyone has had this problem and fixed it, or just has an idea of what to do, I’d greatly appreciate the help! I will attach a screenshot of my Android Studio. Android Studio w/ preview problem
Thanks
Have you checked your preview window in android studio ?
I am asking to you because I was also in the same problem a month ago.
If yes, In The Preview Window. There Will Be A Error Symbol On that window.
Tap on that it will show you the reason for preview error. Fix it and now it works perfectly in my pc.
Edit 1:
Exact Solution after your comment
Tap On That Blue Dot
It would tell preview fidelity issue for the session. Mute The Fidelity Issue For The Session From Same Window And You Are Good To Go.

Can someone please me on how to solve my problem, when I try to run my project on android studio and click the button that integrates the unity it's just keep on going back to the home screen or keeps stoping the app. Thank you, I hope someone can help me with this cause it's for our school requirement.
I keep on searching for answers in the internet and even checking the possible errors but i'm still confuse with this one.
I want to make android app. I have installed androis studio and now i have problem with it. The preview window is hidden
I have tried to fix this problem by updating everything that is possible, but after updating the window is not shown

You can see that i dont see screen where is running code
Android studio does not show me errors and
API is 22
You are using a bad version of constraint layout I would use the constraint layout from the androidx Library
androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout I think is the tag
You can try to invalidate Caches and restart like this:
File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart...
After you have done it try to reopen android studio and check your preview.
Another solution that can help you is to switch from the Text tab to the Design tab, this is also the recommended option for working with ConstraintLayout + you can see your preview in your design tab.
And if all of that didn't work you can always reinstall android studio again, this may be the less recommended option but it will most likely solve your problem.
I keep getting a flashing red icon in the bottom right-hand corner of Android Studio every time it wants me to report a bug in the IDE. It's really irritating! Does anyone know how to disable this feature please? I'm using Studio 2.3.3.
Just report the bug... It helps the team behind Android Studio to improve their product. Wouldn't you want people to do the same when your own app crashes ?
If you still want to hide it, the only solution is to remove the entire status bar in View > Status Bar
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...
When I select any emulator, I'm getting this weird old red phone. The screen is super small and I can't see anything. I've tried searching, but it looks like no one else has had this problem. Does anyone recognize it? My emulators did work fine, but I had to uninstall and reinstall Android Studio because it broke. After reinstalling, this is what's happening :/
Open AVD Manager in Android studio
Select the target emulator and click edit
Click Show Advanced Setting
In the Boot Option section select Cold Boot
Click on Finish
This solved my problem
Go to Tools>Android>AVD Manager and remove all device than add again. Hopefully this will fix your problem. I had exact issue when I moved my sdk folder.
You can try genymotion as your emulator. Its faster and more stable than android studio's emulator. Search on Google for more information.
I had the exact same problem.
I removed all existing devices from my AVD manager and re-installed one which is required. The problem went away.
