Howto select specific AVD in Ti Studio?

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

How can I select a specific AVD in Ti Studio for testing? I want to pre-configure my AVDs in the Android SDK Manager and then use them for testing in TI Studio. The problem is that TI Studio always creates new AVDs and won't let me select the already configured AVDs.... But if TI Studio creates the AVDs, I can't edit their settings afterwards...

you can specify it in the run/debug configuration of your project

  • Hi, could you please explain how to do that exactly? I see no way in run configurations dialog to select any existing avd configuration - please explain how this can be done, thank you very much!

Can't see how I can in TI, but I found another solution. I have to

  • install the latest(!) Android SDK tools from the Android site
  • let TI Studio create a new AVD by itself
  • then open Android SDK tools
  • then I can edit the AVD TI Studio created

  • Not clear about what this means <<let TI Studio create a new AVD by itself>> I have downloaded an updated AVD but the Run Configuration is null; no AVDs listed ???

Same here. In Eclipse you can specify the AVD you want to use but no such luck with Titanium. Makes it difficult to use the emulator.

I created a .bat file that will let you enter the AVD name and run the emulator. Once the emulator is open, try to run the app in Titanium and it will open in that emulator with that AVD.

First time Titanium might time out. Just close out of the emulator and try again.

This also works if Titanium will not run certain configurations of an emulator.

set INPUT=
set /P INPUT=AVD Name: %=%%
emulator -cpu-delay 0 -no-boot-anim -cache ./cache -avd "%INPUT%"
