I would like to create a Pixel 4 XL avd for example from the avdmanager command line but it is not part of the list of available devices contrary to Android Studio where I can choose more models.

The command to see the available devices for creating avd from avdmanager : avdmanager list devices

Can anyone tell me why there is a difference and how I could create my Pixel 4 XL Avd from command line ?

I found the answer by myself :)

The avdmanager command is present in both

  • ~/Library/Android/sdk/tools/bin
  • ~/Library/Android/sdk/cmdline-tools/latest/bin.

To create devices with the latest devices configuration including Pixel 4 XL, you have to use the avdmanager tool present in cmdline-tools/bin folder

Not very sure what you mean. But you can find the AVD Manager in der Red circle I marked in Android Studio. Click to see the image.

Click here!

Let me know if you still have trouble or issues! :)

    Thank you for your effort but this is not the problem. As i said in my post, i want to create a Pixel 4 XL in command line – F Perroch Nov 03 '20 at 17:24

Using android studio, you can get the id for a device to use on the commandline with avdmanager --device by going to Device Manager -> Create device -> Right click export the device, then in that xml file under devices->device->id. For example, for the Pixel 4 XL the id is pixel_4_xl
