I found a temporary solution on an old Stack Overflow thread at Upgraded to SDK 2.3 - now no emulators have connectivity. If it still doesn't work, then wipe, but save that as a last resort.
This allows the network emulation to start with clean memory and connect properly. Memory is not wiped, it is saved.ĭoing a cold boot is the same as rebooting your phone or rebooting your PC. When you shut off the emulator and restart it, it is like putting your PC in hibernate or sleep mode. It is unnecessary unless the data is totally corrupt. Do you reformat your PC every time you restart it? Wiping data on the emulator is just like doing a factory reset to a phone or reformatting your hard drive on your PC and reinstalling your OS. Lo and behold my emulator has internet connectivity again!ĮDIT: Ok, for those saying why not just wipe data and restart. After trying many of these solutions, I was going to just delete my current AVD and make it again, but when I clicked the down arrow on the AVD, I noticed 'Cold Boot Now'.
