| Android Emulator (ARM64) on EC2 - 2022 | |
| --------------------------------------- | |
| 1. Launch EC2 ARM based Instance (a1.metal / a1.2xlarge): (16 Gb RAM, 32Gb Disk), Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS (HVM) ARM x64 | |
| 2. sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade | |
| 3. sudo apt install default-jdk python3-pip repo python-is-python3 unzip libpcre2-dev adb | |
| 4. wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-8512546_latest.zip | |
| 5. unzip commandlinetools-linux-8512546_latest.zip -d android-sdk | |
| 6. sudo mv android-sdk /opt/ | |
| 7. mkdir /opt/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/latest | |
| 8. mv /opt/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/* /opt/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/latest (ignore the error) | |
| 9. at this point you should have sdkmanager and avdmanager under /opt/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/latest/bin/ | |
| 10. echo "export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=/opt/android-sdk" >> ~/.bashrc | |
| 11. echo "export ANDROID_HOME=/opt/android-sdk" >> ~/.bashrc | |
| 12. echo "export ANDROID_EMULATOR_WAIT_TIME_BEFORE_KILL=60" >> ~/.bashrc | |
| 13. echo "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/latest/bin" >> ~/.bashrc | |
| 14. source ~/.bashrc | |
| 15. sdkmanager --update | |
| 16. sdkmanager --licenses | |
| 17. cd /opt/android-sdk/ | |
| 18. Get emulator download link: | |
| - https://ci.android.com/builds/branches/aosp-emu-master-dev/grid? | |
| - column: emulator --> linux_aarch64 | |
| - click a green version | |
| - click Artifacts tab | |
| - click sdk-repo-linux_aarch64-emulator-[build number].zip (~1.6Gb) | |
| - Right-click the Download link (blue) and copy the download URL | |
| - A Relatively stable version (31.3.8 - 5/24/2022): https://ci.android.com/builds/submitted/8632828/emulator-linux_aarch64/latest/sdk-repo-linux_aarch64-emulator-8632828.zip | |
| 19 wget -O emulator.zip "[download URL]" | |
| 20. unzip emulator.zip | |
| 21. cd emulator | |
| 22. copy text from https://chromium.googlesource.com/android_tools/+/refs/heads/master/sdk/emulator/package.xml | |
| 23. nano /opt/android-sdk/emulator/package.xml --> paste copied text | |
| 24. cat source.properties --> get Emulator version number from Pkg.Revision (Example: Pkg.Revision=31.3.9) | |
| 25. update the following params in package.xml according to the version: <major>, <minor>, <micro> | |
| 26. sdkmanager "system-images;android-31;google_apis;arm64-v8a" | |
| 27. avdmanager -v create avd -f -n MyAVD -k "system-images;android-31;google_apis;arm64-v8a" -p "/opt/android-sdk/avd" | |
| 28. avdmanager list avd --> check that you have MyAVD | |
| 29. mkdir /opt/android-sdk/platforms | |
| 30. mkdir /opt/android-sdk/platform-tools | |
| 31. echo "Vulkan = off" >> ~/.android/advancedFeatures.ini | |
| 32. echo "GLDirectMem = on" >> ~/.android/advancedFeatures.ini | |
| 33. on Metal instance, enabled KVM access: | |
| - sudo gpasswd -a $USER kvm | |
| - logout and re-login | |
| - /opt/android-sdk/emulator/emulator -accel-check --> check accel:0, KVM (version 12) is installed and usable: accel | |
| Run the Emulator: | |
| ------------------ | |
| Metal instance: | |
| /opt/android-sdk/emulator/emulator @MyAVD -no-window -no-audio -ports 5554,5555 -skip-adb-auth -no-boot-anim -show-kernel | |
| Non-metal instance: | |
| /opt/android-sdk/emulator/emulator @MyAVD -no-window -no-audio -ports 5554,5555 -skip-adb-auth -no-boot-anim -show-kernel -qemu -cpu max -machine gic-version=max | |
| Notes: | |
| 1. Use an ARM based EC2 instance. A Metal instance will allow ARM to run on the host CPU (via KVM). A non-metal instance will do ARM emulation which is much slower (but works). | |
| 2. The Android Emulaotr isn't included in the sdk-tools for ARM, we download it separately. After we install and update its package file, we can use sdkmanager to download system images and other emultaor-dependant packages. | |
| 3. The platform-tools (adb, aapt2 etc.) aren't not available for ARM64. We install ADB with apt-get (see apt list android-sdk* for other available tools). | |
| 4. Make sure to create the /platforms and /platform-tools folders under /opt/android-sdk/ or the emulator will exit (folder can be empty). | |
| 5. First run on non-Metal instance might take 10-15 minutes. | |
| 6. Use "google_apis" system image and not "google_apis_playstore". The "google_apis_playstore" requires authentication to connect via ADB (adb devices will show "emulator-5554 offline") | |
| 7. In case of unstable images (crash with illegal instruction), try using the aosp_atd image (e.g. "system-images;android-30;aosp_atd;arm64-v8a") | |
| Android Emulator HW options: | |
| ---------------------------- | |
| nano /opt/android-sdk/avd/config.ini | |
| nano ~/.android/avd/MyAVD.ini | |
| Specific parameters to consider: | |
| hw.ramSize=2048M | |
| disk.dataPartition.size=2048M | |
| Disabling the "Ok Google" Hotword detection (might cause 100% CPU on non-metal instance): | |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| adb shell "su root pm disable com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox" | |
| Note: run after Emulator fully loaded | |
| Connecting to Emulator console: | |
| ------------------------------- | |
| 1. get token from: /home/ubuntu/.emulator_console_auth_token | |
| 2. telnet 127.0.0.1 5554 | |
| 3. auth [token] | |
| 4. save snapshot: avd snapshot save default | |
| Manually setup system image (ex: android-32, Google APIs, ARM64): | |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| 1. https://dl.google.com/android/repository/sys-img/google_apis/arm64-v8a-32_r03.zip | |
| 2. mkdir /opt/android-sdk/system-images/android-32 | |
| 3. mkdir /opt/android-sdk/system-images/android-32/google_apis | |
| 4. unzip arm64-v8a-32_r03.zip /opt/android-sdk/system-images/android-32/google_apis | |
| image path: /opt/android-sdk/system-images/android-[api_version]/[api_type]/[arch_type] (/opt/android-sdk/system-images/android-32/google_apis/arm64-v8a) | |
| avdmanager -v create avd -f -n MyAVD2 -k "system-images;android-32;google_apis;arm64-v8a" -p "/opt/android-sdk/avd2" | |
| Useful ADB commands: | |
| -------------------- | |
| Connect: adb devices | |
| Install APK: adb install myapp.apk | |
| Uninstall app: adb uninstall com.package.name | |
| Start app: adb shell am start -n com.package.name/com.package.name.ActivityName | |

Hi, would you be able to create a Dockerfile to wrap the setup and ensure reliability accross systems ?
Thanks !
@atyachin, shalom!
Have you ever tested how many emulators can one server run simultaneously?
Would be really thankful for the info (and for server's specs)!
I tried this on a Gigabyte server with a 128-Core Ampere Altra Max running Ubuntu 22.04LTS (baremetal) and the performance is not great to say the least out of the box.
Pro tip for those out there still trying to do this. Ignore the the ram and core settings in the AVD, the emulator doesn't care. You need to use -cores and -memory flags when you launch the emulator. With 8 cores and 16GB ram per emulator, the performance was actually pretty good, but UI latency is terrible. Single core performance does not seem as good as it should be, but multicore performance is on par with real Android devices. I found that the emulator is very unstable if you assign is less than around 10-12GB ram.
If anyone has any tips on getting GPU acceleration working please let me know. I have two Tesla T4's that I'm trying to use in my server.
Hello.

Getting the same issue, have you found a fix by any chance ?
Unfortunately not, I haven't found the time. I guess the fastest way to get it working would be to use netsimd from x86_64 emulator build and let the Rosetta do its magic.

And after compiling ANGLE and the library libshadertranslator.so,I've been able to use the native GPU of the Jetson Nano with Android 13 using these parameters...
$ emulator @android13 -cores 2 -lowram -memory 1000 -gpu host -ports 5554,5555 -skip-adb-auth -no-boot-anim -no-snapshot -no-metrics -qemu -machine gic-version=2
Instead,I haven't been able to boot succesfully Android Cuttlefish neither on top of Ubuntu 24.04 x64 bit nor on the Jetson Nano on arm64.
Unfortunately not, I haven't found the time. I guess the fastest way to get it working would be to use netsimd from x86_64 emulator build and let the Rosetta do its magic.
I eventually used Ubuntu Server 24.04 LTS x86_64 (ami-001f2488b35ca8aad) on a c5n.metal with this script and it worked fine :

anyone figured out the error "Can't find service: package" i am seeing a few folks here encountered it and i am also seeing that.
Using a1.2xlarge and following the instructions to the letter. the emulator runs but the package service isn't functioning.
many thanks!
