Android Emulator broken when rotating display

Try running the emulator inside Android Studio. Go to settings-tools-emulator and check the box there to run the emulator inside Android Studio. When you rotate it after it should rotate faster than in the AVD's standalone application, and not break the display. This should fix the broken display problem, without making a new AVD. Make sure you have updated to the most recent version of Android Studio first, v4.1.


The android emulator defaults to have auto rotate turned off. Turn on auto rotate the normal way you would on your phone and it will work.


This was a bug in the Google Android Emulator version 30.2.x.

It was fixed in version 30.3.5 (approximately 8 January 2021). Apply the update like this:

  • Stop or Force Quit all the running AVD emulators
  • Android Studio ➔ Tools ➔ SDK Manager ➔ SDK Tools (click this tab in the middle of the dialog) ➔ Android Emulator
  • The status should say "Update Available"
  • Click the Checkbox so that it will change from a horizontal line to a checkmark, and so that the download symbol appears on the left.

Preferences Window for: Android Studio ➔ Tools ➔ SDK Manager ➔ SDK Tools

  • Click the Apply or OK button
  • It should download version 30.3.5 or higher, for "Android Emulator".
  • After the upgrade is applied, relaunch your emulators.
