cannot open Andoid emulator on VS Code - visual-studio-code

I am using the github.com/DiemasMichiels/emulator extension for VS Code. Whenever I try to open the emulator, I get these notifications. what is the problem and what should I do about it?
Something went wrong fetching you Android emulators! Make sure your path is correct. Try running this command in your terminal: "false\emulator" -list-avds
source: Android iOS emulator (extension)
Error: spawn C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe ENOENT
source: Android iOS emulator (extension)
Make sure your Windows path is set correctly! Example: C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator
source: Android iOS emulator (extension)

If you are using Windows remove .exe from the path
New path should be: :\Users\HUNG\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator

See this GitHub issue ticket in the DiemasMichiels/emulator extension's repo: Something went wrong fetching you Android emulators #14
Quoting from some of the comments in the discussion thread there:
https://github.com/DiemasMichiels/emulator/issues/14#issuecomment-464050318 :
This is related to my update with #13. Point it to the directory instead of the actual executable file instead and I think it should work just fine! - antonholmberg
https://github.com/DiemasMichiels/emulator/issues/14#issuecomment-464254880 :
In previous version (0.0.7) it works with:
"emulator.emulatorPath": "%ANDROID_HOME%/emulator/emulator.exe"
But now (1.0.0): Only works when i use absolute path like:
"emulator.emulatorPath": "C:\Users\RodrigoSaka\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\emulator" - RodrigoSaka
Given those comments, you should update your settings.json with something like this, where you give the absolute path to the directory containing the emulator executable instead of the path to the executable:
"emulator.emulatorPath": "C:\\Users\\{username}\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\Sdk\\emulator"

No valid Android SDK platforms

When I write flutter doctor command in cmd I get this error.
No valid Android SDK platforms found in G:\SdkManager\platforms. Candidates were:
- android-21
- android-27
- android-28
- android-8.0.0
flutter doctor
env
path
flutter sdk
platforms
plugins
It appears as though this message shows up when you don't have any build-tools packages installed. At the time of writing, to install the minimum required versions, you can fix this issue with:
sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-30" "build-tools;30.0.3"
I've set up my Android SDK manually on Windows 10 with the command line and I was able to solve this kind of errors while I tried to set up my development environment, if you want to solve it as I did, just follow the next steps that I posted in a GitHub Comment in a related issue:
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/19805#issuecomment-478306166
You should download and install Android build tools for the respective platform versions. This can be done via the Android SDK Manager.
In AndroidStudio go to menu Tool > Android > SDK Manager
On the tab "SDK Platforms" select one or more platforms and click the OK button.
Wait until the download completed and try again.
Try to download all sdk from file-> settings -> sdkmanager.
And do not download manually.
Find your sdk path and execute the code.
$ flutter config --android-sdk <path-to-your-android-sdk-path>
see here
I think your path is incorrect in environment variable.
You should change it to G:/Sdkmanager/platforms

"ERROR : No emulator images (avds) found" running ionic on osx 10.10

This is the full error message I got after running ionic emulate android

Thanks.
Vikas's answer is pretty spot on, however (sometimes) just running android avd won't work, which is what I found out after hours of trying to get it working.
When ever I ran android avd in my terminal it would give me the following error:
zsh: command not found: android
This is because I needed to add the Android SDK paths for the platform-tools and tools to my zshrc file (you might be running bash or something else on your terminal).
Simple fix was to add these files to my zshrc PATH environment, You can do this too by using your favourite text editor and depending on what shell you're using.
This link: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.8.0/guide_getting-started_android_index.md.html#Getting%20Started%20with%20Android helped me out a hell of a lot getting this fixed.
So I used subl ~/.zshrc (because sublime is my text editor and i've setup symlinks)
I Found my exports PATH and changed it to represent the following:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Users/dev/.rbenv/versions/2.2.3/bin/ruby:/Users/dev/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/dev/Library/Android/sdk/tools:$PATH"
I then saved the file, closed down sublime and ran source ~/.zshrc in my terminal window, and now I can run android avd and it now opens the Android Virtual Device Manager with no problems.
A reminder your shell might be different to mine (i.e. not running with zsh)and your exports PATH might look different as well, but it's pretty easy to figure out, and the link above will also help if you get stuck.
Actually it is not able to find AVD (Android virtual device). You have to create one.
Type "android avd" from Command Promt to use the graphical manager to setup an emulator image to work with for running your app on. The graphical tool is fairly straight forward to use.

Android studio:import NDK project from eclipse

I exported project from Eclipse(windows) and imported it to android studio V 0.4.2(ubuntu).
The project include working NDK library.
I get this error when try to run my app:
Execution failed for task ':app:compileDebugNdk'.
NDK not configured
From others stackoverflow posts, I understand that it is an issue.
But get no workaround for this.
Should i proceed the development with eclipse for now, or is that the a lazy option ?
EDIT :
I run this command:
export NDK=~/Downloads/android-ndk-r9c
and then :
and then go to my app directory and run this:
ndk-build
And i get this:
yarinkos-u#yarinkosu-MSI-Notebook-EX600:~/AndroidStudioProjects/AndEngineEXperimental$ ndk-build
/home/yarinkos-u/Downloads/android-ndk-r9c/ndk-build: 1: /home/yarinkos-u/Downloads/android-ndk-r9c/ndk-build: dirname: not found

ERROR: Unknown host operating system:
What i did wrong?
It seems that the script running,but i miss something there.
EDIT 2:
i mistakenly runing this also :
export PATH=~/Downloads/android-ndk-r9c
so i get the error above.
If i running onlt this :
export NDK=~/Downloads/android-ndk-r9c
I get ndk-build not found error.
NDK Support is introduced from Android Studio 0.4.1 only, so make sure you are running AS 0.4.1 or above.
Android gradle plugin must be 0.7.+ in build.gradle file and also new NDK integration requires NDK r9c .
Lines from Developer tools blog under Release 0.4.1
Supports importing NDK projects. If the imported project contains NDK
sources, these are imported into the jni/ source set of the project,
the module name is inferred from the Makefile and stored in the Gradle
file, and the ndk.dir property is defined in local.properties.
Check more about it here :
http://tools.android.com/recent
you need to download the NDK for your operatings system # https://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html once it's downloaded, install it it'll extract the contents to the correct file system it needs to be in it'll take some time, also make sure you are running the latest android studio. it worked for me. good luck.

how to run apk file in android

I try to run apk file in android, i follow these steps
1. First get the Android SDK and unzip it somewhere on your hard drive
2. Add SDK_ROOT to your system variables pointing to /tools folder under the sdk
3. Run the emulator
4. Copy the apk file to /tools folder
5. Change directory to /tools and run from commandline $adb install your_application.apk 6. Now check applications list in the emulator and you should see the new application installed and ready.
but i get this type of error :
" [2011-01-11 17:02:15 - Logcat]device not found
com.android.ddmlib.AdbCommandRejectedException: device not found
at com.android.ddmlib.AdbHelper.setDevice(AdbHelper.java:736)
at com.android.ddmlib.AdbHelper.executeRemoteCommand(AdbHelper.java:373)
at com.android.ddmlib.Device.executeShellCommand(Device.java:284)
at com.android.ddmuilib.logcat.LogPanel$3.run(LogPanel.java:527) "
can you help me any one.... ?
Try to start first the emulator. Navigate to the $SDK_ROOT/tools directory and execute the file 'emulator.exe'. Wait couple of minutes until it loads. Now run :
$adb install your_application.apk
If all went without errors then you should be seeing your newly installed APK on the emulator.

android ddms tool error

i got the error in ddms tools.
when i run the ddms in android sdk tools it shows"Failed to get the adb version": cannot run program adb;crate process error=2;the system cannot find the file specified".
Try add to the PATH variable the sdk tools path.
it should looks like 'C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\' (don't forget the last backslash).
