Android Studio - Manually Download System Image For Emulator


Answer :

In windows: First locate your android-sdk. By default it's in your C:\Users\Your.name\AppData\Local\ in it's root folder. where you can find: SDK Manager.exe, make a folder name it "system-images", my api 25 image is at system-images\android-25\google_apis\x86_64\Files

Hope you can Figure it out. Comment if you have any problem.


In mac OSX:

~/Library/Android/sdk/system-images/android-[API_VERSION]/[API_TYPE]/x86

Replace [API_VERSION] with Android version you are downloading and the [API_TYPE] can either be google_apis_playstore or google_apis depending on whether the image you are downloading comes with Google Play or not.


On Windows 10:

  1. Download the file from e.g.: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/sys-img/google_apis/x86-27_r09.zip.
    1. Extract the zipped file.
    2. Copy (OR Cut, not recommended) the contents of the extracted folder e.g.: x86.
    3. Find the android-sdk folder. By default, it should be located at C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk.
    4. Look for a folder named system-images. Create system-images if it doesn't exist. Depending on the file you downloaded, create subfolders within system-images. E.g.: system-images->android-27->google_apis.
    5. Paste within google_apis.
    6. Restart Android Studio and the system image should be selectable.
