Install Android on VirtualBox | Issue Fixed [2024]

[@sforjgoom5661]

In Virtualbox 7.1.4. there is no setting for the Graphics Controller. But you must change it in order to start Android. You have to use the commandline (cmd) to change it (VBox musst be off while changing)

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

It works on all devices try again

[@Seekknowledge7]

After installing it runs smoothly, but when i close the android and vbox, and open again android machine doesn’t show on left side bar of vbox, when i click on start it goes to installation process again. How to save android after installing as it shows on left side of your vbox taskbar to start again.

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

Glad it helped

[@joka9119stzz]

hi the method works! i have one question: Is possible to enable and use shared folder or bidirectional copy paste? if yes how? I tried without any success. thanks

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

From the host tools turn on the option

Rebooting without unmounting the iso loops in the installation process. Rebooting without mounted iso ends in booting to console...

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

1. **Unmount the ISO Image**: - First, make sure your VM is powered off. - Open VirtualBox and select your Android VM from the list. - Go to **Settings** (you can right-click on the VM or use the toolbar at the top). - In the left sidebar, choose **Storage**. - Under the **Controller: IDE** section (or whichever controller your ISO is attached to), locate the ISO file (it'll be listed as an optical drive). - Right-click on it and select **Remove Attachment**. - Confirm the removal. - Now your VM won't boot from the ISO anymore during startup. 2. **Ensure Boot Order**: - While you're in the VM settings, check the boot order. - Make sure the virtual hard disk (where your Android OS is installed) is set as the first boot device. - You don't want it trying to boot from the ISO again! 3. **Restart the VM**: - Fire up your VM. - If all went well, it should now boot directly into your Android installation without any ISO-related shenanigans. 4. **Bonus Tip**: - If you accidentally removed the ISO while the VM was running (we've all been there), press the **host key** (usually the Windows flag on your keyboard) and **R** simultaneously. This will initiate a reboot.

@@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de Thx for your answer, it worked! I see boot order and also a bit of patience is key. Thanks for your support!

i am facing black screen error android is not starting only stuck in black screen i am using window 11

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

Make sure virtualization is on, updates virtualbox , install latest extension pack, try again

[@itscediix]

I downloaded an app and it crashed instantly. every app crashes instantly

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

allocate more resources to your VM , more RAM ,CPU and storage

[@itscediix]

@@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de that ain't the problem. It's on Max settings on a PC that can handle any game 60fps

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

Too much resources is not good two just go for the recommendations and make sure to increase the display resolution to 128

[@Tahirfrr]

I have done the installation and i have removed the ISO file but it doesn't work so what should i do??

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

Please share any specific errors so that I can help you

[@Tahirfrr]

@@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de i mean how should i reload android again?

[@tanishqverma5453]

Ok, if you have followed the instructions carefully, yours installation must be successful and youre seeing the android screen. Your now free to remove the ISO. If after removing the ISO, your virtual machine dont run, then the problem is with your installation process or where you have store you VDI. Thanks

[@-hurkyshibo99-79]

just shows console after I did the auto installation bit

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

Hey @-hurkyshibo99-79! It sounds like you're seeing the console instead of the usual Android interface. This could happen due to a few reasons: Incomplete Installation: Sometimes the auto-installation doesn't finish correctly. Try reinstalling and ensure you follow each step carefully. Settings Issue: Check the VirtualBox settings, especially the display settings. Make sure the video memory is set appropriately. Boot Order: Make sure the virtual machine is booting from the virtual hard disk. If you need more help, let me know! Happy to assist further. 😊 Good luck! 🚀

wifi is not working on adroid x86

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

yes

[@pedrocordova8936]

I'm trying to do this but with an Android without Root. I tried with several different ISOs on Android X86. But they all had Root. When I tried to access a bank or some APP of the sort, it wouldn't let me open.

[@EpidemicTutorials-qh6de]

These ISO files are meant for educational and test purposes only I don't recommend signing in with any private credentials

[@n-uv7vg]
