Xamarin stuck at “Found device: emulator-5554”

Xamarin stuck at “Found device: emulator-5554”

I am currently learning Xamarin for Android app development. I installed the xamarin workload for visual studio a few days ago. Today I built a hello world app with Xamarin, tried to run it with an emulator. When I ran the app, everthing went fine until the device loaded succesfully, when the putput window in visual studio said Found device: emulator-5554.

At that point visual studio and the emulator ‘stopped’, not hanged, stopped. The status bar said Ready and the build animation that appears when building a project showed that the process was half completed. I waited for several minutes, but nothing changed. I tried to ‘preload’ the emulator like adviced on other stackoverflow questions, which again didn’t work.

UPDATE: Now Visual Studio is stuck at Waiting for emulator to be ready... which takes forever and never loads.

I work on Windows 10, Visual Studio 2019 Community with the Xamarin workload, along with the default Galaxy Nexus API 23 Android Emulator.

Thank You! Any help is appreciated.

you just need to turn off Fast Deploying. And everything will work again.

This usually happens when you have low data read/write speed on C:/

This is a common problem in Visual Studio when you use Android Emulator. You can try 2 ways for resolve this problem.

First way

  • 1: Go in "Tools", then Android then Android Device Manager.
  • 2: Run simulator
  • 3: Then Start your project

Second way

  • 1: Go in "Tools", then Android then Android Device Manager.
  • 2: Delete all yours Android Simulators
  • 3: Create a new Simulator
  • 4: Run simulator
  • 5: Then start your project

Let me know if works :)
