emulator: ERROR: A snapshot operation for 'Nexus_4_API_27' is pending and timeout has expired. Exiting...
I am getting this error when I am trying to open emulator from command-line with this bellow command.
anjan@anjan-HP-Laptop-15-bs0xx:~/Android/Sdk/emulator$ ./emulator -avd Nexus_4_API_27
How to solve this problem?
I had this error in ubuntu and the fix was to change the owner of my $HOME/.android folder into my current user. ie.
If you have android studio installed (Obviously) just open the AVD Manager, select the device and choose 'Stop' by using the right click. Then the device will be released.
It is caused be the lock file generated by the boot which reside in the folder = .android/avd/{yourDeviceName}.
we can delete by using sudo rm snapshot.lock.lock command.
Then cold booting the device again ,solves the issue.
