Android Emulator Device crash when start in Android Studio (Linux)

For emulator crashing seconds after launch in Android Studio 2.3.1 or later: Open Android Virtual Device Manager, select your AVD, select "Edit this AVD", in the new window (Virtual Device Configuration), goto Emulated Performance > Graphics and select the "Software (GLS)" option. This problem might be caused by: 1) Outdated graphics card drivers. 2) Older graphics cards, not properly supported by the generic Windows 8 (or newer) drivers.

You need to Uncheck the "Use Host GPU" checkbox - in the emulator settings
