Reboot/Power Off Android Emulator

Viewed 40283

I installed new fonts on my Android emulator. The instructions say I have to reboot my device. I tried using the "Power Off" button but it just displays "Shutting Down" and does nothing. Even when I go to the adb shell and run "reboot" it hangs.

Any ideas how to restart the emulator so that the new settings appear?

Thanks.

Here is a quick way to restart/ reboot emulator:

  1. Go to "Android Virtual Device Manager"
  2. Click on the dropdown menu in "Action" column
  3. Select "Cold Boot Now" option in menu

Now emulator will restart/reboot and power will ON.

In the AVD Manager, you can click on "Cold Boot Now" under "Actions" column of the device you want to reboot.

You can just close the emulator window.
