== Summary ==

In this documentation, we cover the topic of how to run an Android emulator with Android Studio in Kali Linux.

This is not a detailed description of Android Studio, but only the configuration of a rooted emulator.

== Requirements ==

* Operating System: Kali Linux

== Setup ==

Download the newest version of [https://developer.android.com/studio?hl=de Android Studio Iguana]

Change the working directory to Downloads
<pre>
cd Downloads/
</pre>
Extract Android Studio with tar
<pre>
tar -xzvf android-studio-2023.2.1.25-linux.tar.gz
</pre>
Change the working directory to android-studio/bin
<pre>
cd android-studio/bin
</pre>
Start Android Studio
<pre>
./studio.sh
</pre>

== Create Virtual Device ==

1. On the "Welcome to Android Studio" page, select '''More Actions'''.

2. Go into the '''Virtual Device Manager'''.

3. Click on the '''+''' icon to add a new device.

4. Choose a device based on your preferences. We chose '''Pixel 6 Pro'''.

5. Select an x86 image (we recommend Android 7 or higher) with Google APIs but '''not Google Play''' to use a non-production image. We chose '''Android 9 ("Pie")''', API 28 '''without Google Play'''.

== Set Environment Variables ==

Open the bashrc file
<pre>
nano ~/.bashrc
</pre>
Add to the end of the file the following line:
<pre>
export PATH=$PATH:/home/kali/Android/Sdk/emulator
</pre>
Save & Exit the file.

Execute the bashrc file to make the changes effective:
<pre>
bash
source ~/.bashrc
</pre>
To check if variables are added to PATH.
<pre>
echo $PATH
</pre>

=== Problem Fix ===
If problems appear about missing environment variables, then add these lines to ~/.bashrc & execute the file.
<pre>
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$HOME/Android/Sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
</pre>

To check if variables are added.
<pre>
echo $PATH
echo $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
echo $ANDROID_HOME
</pre>

== Run the Virtual Device in the Terminal ==

With the following command, the virtual device should be shown on the screen.
<pre>
emulator -avd <DEVICE-NAME> -writable-system -no-snapshot
</pre>

Example:
<pre>
emulator -avd Pixel_6_Pro_API_28 -writable-system -no-snapshot
</pre>

Now the emulator is ready to go!

=== Errors? ===
If any errors occur with the emulator, most errors can be solved by wiping the data of the device and starting anew.

For this, you have to open Android Studio, select the device manager, and click on "wipe data".
