Android Emulator Unauthorized

I've got a Pixel 2 emulator running Android Q. Whenever I boot the device there's no RSA popup, and no notification that USB Debugging is enabled. Whenever I run adb devices -l I get the following output:

List of devices attached emulator-5554 unauthorized transport_id:1

I've tried wiping the emulator and cold booting it, restarting the adb-server and made sure USB Debug is turned on in the emulator itself.

I tried it on both my desktop running Kubuntu 18.10 & my XPS 15 running the same OS. Has anyone found a fix for this?

EDIT:

It worked when I selected a hardware profile without the play services. Problem solved!

Solution

  • Seems there was an issue with adb tools.

    Taken from Android Studio blog: https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/2019/03/emulator-28112-canary-28025-to-beta.html

    ADB from platform-tools 28.0.2 can now be safely used with the emulator. If you are experiencing issues with "unauthorized" emulators:

    1. Exit all emulators
    2. Delete ~/.android/adbkey and ~/.android/adbkey.pub
    3. adb kill-server
    4. adb devices Wipe data of AVD
    5. Relaunch emulator
