We have various options to virtualize Android on GNU/Linux.

Genymotion

Genymotion is a cross-platform tool that creates a virtual machine with which we can emulate Android in real time.  Under GNU/Linux we have to install it in virtualbox

We go to the website, we register and they will send us an email to download the application: download Genymotion

We give permissions and execute

Bash
chmod +x genymotion-2.2.2_x86.bin
./genymotion-2.2.2_x86.bin
A previous installation already exists in folder [/home/jositoh/Escritorio/genymotion]. Overwrite [y/n] ? y

– Trying to find VirtualBox toolset ……………….. OK (Valid version of VirtualBox found: 4.1.18_Debianr78361)

– Removing old installation ………………………. OK

– Extracting files ………………………………. OK (Extract into: [/home/jositoh/Escritorio/genymotion])
Installation done successfully.
You can now use these tools from [/home/jositoh/Escritorio/genymotion]:

– genymotion

– genymotion-shell

To run it:

text
/home/jositoh/Escritorio/genymotion/genymotion

A small configuration wizard opens which you can't miss.

Other alternatives that we will see installed will be Android-x86, AndroVM and soon Andy will be released for GNU/linux. is currently in Alpha

All the best.
