I can run ARM images, but when I try to run an Atom x86 image (android 4.4.2, nexus 5 clone), it goes to a black screen and sits there doing nothing. The emulator output reports "HAX is working and emulator runs in fast virt mode" before going to the black screen emulator window.

  • "AVD_for_Nexus_5", Android 4.4.2, Atom x86
  • Hardware: 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo (Macbook Pro 17, mid2009)
  • Fresh install of Yosemite, no virtualization software installed besides HAXM
  • HAXM 1.1.0 for "10.9 and above" installed, downloaded from Intel's webiste yesterday
  • GPU: have tried both enabled/disabled with no effect: black screen either way

Never had an older version of HAXM installed, so don't think its the "old haxm verison doesn't work on mavericks/yosemite" problem.

  • You can try the HAXM in the Android SDK extras. Also if you are using Android Studio you can see logs from Run tab. – Hadi Tok Nov 23 '14 at 00:18
  • I tried the haxm from android sdk extras too... same result. – Seth Nov 23 '14 at 05:14
  • I'm also seeing this on a Core 2 Duo. There's something in the HAXM release notes about not working for 64-bit images on older processors like the Core 2 Duo, but I think we're both trying to run a 32-bit image and it's still failing. This is making me sad, as it's stopping me doing a lot of the Android work I had on my list. – Matt Gibson Dec 01 '14 at 08:47
  • Anyone with a core 2 duo have HAXM working? Are you using a Mac @MattGibson ? – Seth Dec 02 '14 at 23:08
  • Yup, I'm on a 2009 iMac. – Matt Gibson Dec 02 '14 at 23:39
  • same problem for me, similar details (ARM images ok, ATOM ones end up with black screen; haxm 1.1.1, core2 duo (MBP mid-2009) running mavericks. Have virtualbox installed, but not running.) – Brian Henry Dec 09 '14 at 17:14
  • I am also trying to run x86 android emulator on my 2009 mac (Yosemite) with HAXM 1.1.1 but it don't work. Emulator doesn't boot. – Gaurav Singh Mar 19 '15 at 04:25
