my computer configuration : i7-6700k, 16Gb RAM and a GTX 1060
the AVD configuration :

Anyone had the same problem in the past or have a solution ? feel free to ask me for more info in case I didn't explained enough

回答1:

I had the same problem, and I found a solution that you can have the hardware acceleration still activated and move the AVD between monitors.

Here's how I did it:

1. Start the AVD.
2. Go to Extended Controls (the last button on the control strip, with the 3 dots) > Settings > Advanced
3. Change the "OpenGL ES renderer" to "ANGLE (D3D11)"
4. Restart the AVD.

And there you go.

The problem appears also with a i7-6700k, GTX 1080 and miscellaneous AVDs in my environment. It works without a problem when Nvidia Surround is enabled. But this might not be a solution which everyone prefers.

I had this same problem and solved it by setting the AVD Graphics performance from 'automatic' or 'hardware' to 'software' graphics acceleration. You can see the setting here: Android AVD graphics acceleration setting picture

You can read more about that setting here: Configure Hardware Acceleration for the Android Emulator

I believe this has something to do with Nvidia drivers and the android emulator, as I only got the problem on the display using a Nvidia GPU and not the display using the Intel integrated one... which is disappointing not to be able to take advantage of the better GPU for graphics acceleration.

Thanks to the hint provided by Serjux's answer, I resolved my similar problem - Android emulators freeze immediately when moved from one monitor to another. They worked fine without this problem until I upgraded my PC from Intel i5-3570K to AMD Ryzen 7 2700 while the video card GeForce GTX 1050 remained. I use Hyper-V versions of Android emulators. For hw.gpu.mode, I have tried auto, host, angle, mesa, and found only mesa works fine:
