Unable to start Genymotion Virtual Device - Virtua

Question

I'm using Genymotion v13.0 on Windows 8 Pro to create Virtual Device successfully, but when I try to run it I get this error: Unable to start Genymotion Virtual Device.

Screenshot:

Trying to run it via Virtualbox, I got this error message: Virtualbox Host Only Ethernet Adapter Failed to start

Screenshot:

Virtual Device previously could run well until I got this issue.

Can someone please tell me how to Fix it?

Answer 1

I had the same problem in Mac OS, it was a bug in VirtualBox V5.0.2 and fixed in V5.0.3, I installed V5.0.3 and no more problem

Answer 2

I did the following to resolve mine:

1. Open VirtualBox and check the new machine that is created for you by GenyMotion
2. Right Click on it and choose Settings then go to the Network section/tab

3. In Adapter 1 tab, It should be attached to Host-Only Adapter. Check what is the name of the used adapter Name then close it.

4. Open File|Preferences in Virtualbox, then go to Network section/tab

5. Under Host-only Networks tab, find the same name you have already gotten in step 3.

6. Double click on that name and apple the following configuration

   • Adapter Tab:
   • IPv4 Adapter: 192.168.65.1

   • IPV4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0

   • DHCP Server:

   • Check "Enable Server"
   • Server Address: 192.168.65.100
   • Server Mask: 255.255.255.0
   • Lower Address Bound: 192.168.65.101
   • Higher Address Bound: 192.168.65.255

Try this one. it works for me. :)

I also disabled Hyper-V to makes mine work.

Answer 4

in my case there was 2 reasons (checked) that my genymotion device couldn't run on windows 10/64bit

1. VPN was running and connected

2. amount of "base memory" :

run virtual box > choose your device in the list > Settings > System (left list) > set your base memory on 1024
