Android AVD Device won't use a Google API Target and Intel CPU at the same time

I wanted to take advantage of HAXM but when I select a Google API as a target, the Intel chip option for the CPU is gone and the select list is disabled with ARM selected. If I choose a none Google API of the same version it is selectable. Why?

Solution

  • You can't use the HAXM for the GOOGLE API !

    GOOGLE API -> ARM (FORCED) can't use Virtualization.

    ANDROID API -> ARM / INTEL ATOM (ANY)
