Answer 1

check those links : Emulator!! and Emulator!!.

Note: Edit emulator Uncheck 'Use Host GPU' option. . Still any prob just let me know

Answer 2

Are you sure you downloaded the packages required by the api level of your selected device.

I advice you to open SDK manager and check whether the required Api packages are installed or not .

Answer 3

Go to AVD Manager. - Edit your AVD. - Uncheck 'Use Host GPU' option. - Click Finish (Save). - Start AVD again.

Answer 4

If you're using Android Studio, launch the AVD Manager, edit the Nexus AVD (ie. click the pencil icon), and in the resulting window, uncheck the "Use Host GPU" checkbox.

That fixed the error for me and allowed me to launch the emulator from Android Studio.

Answer 5

Following answer will be for android 2.0 and above users

Once you choose "Software - GLES 2.0" everything will be fine.

STEPS:

1)Tools -> Android -> AVD Manager 
2)Select "Edit" ( a green pencil like icon).
3)Select "Show Advanced Settings".
4)In the Graphics drop list select "Software - GLES 2.0"
5)Click finish to save and now again build the gradle.

Below image shows the setting which I had to remove the error.

Answer 6

Edit your AVD ,On Graphics select Software-GLES instead of Auto.Its worked for me.I am also updated VM heap size to 384 in advanced settings option.
