When I'm starting Genymotion it gives me a white screen, I used different virtual devices and still the same screen shows up. Tried reinstalling the virtual devices but didn't work. Any help is appreciated.

  • @JuanCruzSoler I tried the solutions there but didn't work. – Waleed Adel Jun 15 '16 at 15:43
  • Check if you have the final version of VirtualBox and if Intel Virtualization is enabled. – Arshak92 Jun 15 '16 at 15:55
  • I have the latest version of both the VirtualBox, which is 5.0.4, and Genymotion, which is 2.7.2. How can I check Intel Virtualization is enabled? If you mean entering the Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings > Right click on VirtualBox Host-only network and enable it or checking its properties and checking VirtualBox NDIS6, then yes, I did that. @Arshak92 – Waleed Adel Jun 15 '16 at 16:00
  • @WaleedAdel you can check if virtualization is enabled in your bios. By the way, also check if your Processor supports virtualization. – Arshak92 Jun 16 '16 at 08:16

The best advice I can give to you: use your own device! Develop an android app on a virtual device is really not optimized

  • The whole idea of using a virtual device is saving time and if there are any errors or something that needs optimization that's what a virtual device is for. – Waleed Adel Jun 15 '16 at 15:55
  • You can check error on your own device too, and moreover, you will be able to see the amount of process used by your application or other things like that thanks to developer option in settings. But it's true that virtual device is usefull when you want to check if your app run on different size of screen. – Benjamin Lucidarme Jun 15 '16 at 16:25
  • It's easier for me to use a virtual device to check quickly if everything is fine. Thanks for your help anyway. – Waleed Adel Jun 15 '16 at 19:07
  • Can you please elaborate more on using my own device to run the app from Android Studio? What are the steps to do that? – Waleed Adel Jun 16 '16 at 01:11
  • You just need to put your device on "debug mode", and click on the green button on android studio to run your app. To put your device in debug mode, you have to look in internet how do that because it depends of your devices – Benjamin Lucidarme Jun 16 '16 at 13:48
  • I did that and worked. Thank you. @BenjaminLucidarme – Waleed Adel Jun 16 '16 at 14:40
  • No problem! You can see the errors on the log box on Android studio. – Benjamin Lucidarme Jun 16 '16 at 20:37
