I can't run my app on standard Nexus 5 emulator. It seems it requires Intel HAXM but i have an AMD processor. So how can i use the emulator without buying an Intel processor (or installing Linux)?
If you have an AMD processor, you can download an ARM image, but it is super slow on x86 platforms.
The x86 image does not work with AMD CPUs, because the x86 image needs HAXM installed which needs VT-X support, and only Intel CPUs support it.
So you can download the Genymotion emulator, which supports both VT-X & AMD-V technology.
Genymotion is super fast. Other than hooking your physical device up to test, it's the next best thing. Android Studio emulator is not efficient for testing. I am using the personal version of Genymotion.
You can run the ARM (non Intel) emulator image. From your list, just choose a non Intel emulation.
You should give ARC Welder a try if all you just want to do is test an app, without all the distractions from an emulator. It works with the Google App Runtime For Chrome
You simply feed it your app's apk file and it generates a folder containing your app's resources then it launches the app. Its still in heavy development, so not all apps work yet, but its really worth giving a try.
