I I'm using 4k resulotion and I have created an emulator in avd manager but when I start emulator it shows like this picture:
How can I fix this issue and get the real size of emulator on my 4k screen.
I fixed the problem by installing 2019 Visual Studio.
Thanks to #JonDouglas

I've recently run into the problem of the Android Emulator not deploying and showing a black screen instead.
I've been working on this problem for 24 hours now and I can't seem to fix it.
Even a blank Xamarin.Forms Project causes the Black Screen. I guess the path of the Android SDK might be wrong? (but I don't know how to fix it...)?
I got it resolved by running VS as administrator
Try it out.
I am using xamarin studio community edition on my macbook pro. when I try to run any sample project on android emulator it takes infinite time.
Can you please suggest. FYI It was working previosuly . Please check screen shot Android emulator error
I would highly suggest using the Xamarin Android Player instead of Google's default emulator manager.
The Xamarin Android Player is much faster and more reliable in my opinion although I have also heard that choosing different Google Play emulator images can make a big difference. Installing HAXM can also speed up the default Intel Google Play emulator images.
Download the Xamarin Android Player from here.
*Edit: Thanks to #SushiHangover for pointing out the fact that Xamarin deprecated the Xamarin Android Player. SushiHangover suggests using the Genymotion Android emulator which I have heard good things about but have not tried yet.
I have been trying to run basic Android App provided by Visual Studio 2015 via XAMARIN Android Player. Program gets build and deployed successfully, yet, App or anything does not appear on screen. Xamarin Player takes more than 20 mins to start and then nothing happens. Find Screenshots as well.
WIthin the Android SDK Manager look under Extras there is an package called Intel x86 Emulator Accelerator (HAXM Installer). Installing HAXM will increase the speed of the emulator when you use the Intel Atom CPU/ABI
Also when creating the emulator device check Use Host GPU for increaded performance.
I ran into few issues with Xamarin Android Player as well. Currently I am using Genymotion Emulator and it is much faster.
Well, Well, Well, I got my thing up and running. Following are the steps I performed:
After installing Xamarin for VS2015, I checked for latest Android SDK via SDK Manager. Got all the necessary updates installed.
Installed Xamarin Android Player and used emulator Nexus 5 KitKat API level 19.
Earlier I was using Nexus 5 Lollipop, was the reason why, it was not working. May be its not fixed for buil yet.
As, described by Mr.Pilatus in above answer, the particular HAXM things surely does help in accelerating emulator.
Got my Android app running.
Thank you all for all the necessary suggestion and guiding my in my baby steps in XAMARIN development. Gracias. NAMASTE!
I am new to Xamarin and i am trying to the sample app "XamarinStone". I can see the emulator is launching, but the application is not loading.
I kept at the same state for 1 hour, but still no hope.
I tried with Visual Studio 2012, but I am facing the same issue.
i installed all the necessary applications as per Xamarin Installer. What else I would need to do?
Can anyone help me to troubleshoot the issue.
Thanks!!
Could you please confirm that you've setup Xamarin latest version in both Windows & Mac PC?
And as per below screenshot of Visual Studio, you see list of iPhone Simulators?
And as per the second highlighted image "Show iOS Simulator" button, when you click on that image, it invokes iOS simulator on your MAC?
I recently reinstalled Windows 8 CP, Visual Studio 2010 Professional and both the WP7 SDKs. My emulator map is just a white screen - the interface is present but there's no map.
I have an internet connection and I've reinstalled both SDKs.
Does anybody know what could be wrong?
Thanks!
Yes, the emulator location tool is not working for some reason. It has already been asked here, and I gave a suggestion on what to do both there and on my blog.
I hope this will get you going! :-)
