I used to have this issue after setting up custom DNS servers on my mac I had to either set up Google s or other DNS servers explicitly in emulator settings I recall running it with `emulator avd Pixel 2 API 28 dns server 1 1 1 1`

Make sure you have HAXM installed and that you enabled kernel extension in settings gt security after that `kextstat | grep intel` in terminal yields two entries for me

I have a similar issue when connecting to my VPN while the emulator is running Usually rebooting the emulator solves the issue sweat smile

Thanks for the tip `$ kextstat` gives me intelhaxm Any way it s quick enough that I can work with this ```172 0 0xffffff7f84fb3000 0x29000 0x29000 com intel kext intelhaxm 7 5 1 D0CC7B8F 1F62 33B1 BE6B B5573D2A607B lt 8 6 5 3 1 gt ```

wasyl · Answer

That should be fine then You can also verify in AVD Manager that for that emulator you have hardware graphics emulation perhaps multi core CPU if your mac allows and reasonable RAM And use recommended images it should be pretty fast specifically later emulators like API 28 29

Alishen · Answer

Nexus 6 has the hardware graphics option

I have this issue after the laptop was suspended Restarting the emulator usually fixes it for me wiping data is not needed

Samuel Michael · Answer

That is quite common for android I would recommend deleting that avd and creating a new one and don t get too stuck trying to debug it s not worth the stress
