I created an AVD of Android version 4.1 with the Google APIs. I wanted to emulate my Galaxy Nexus, so I gave it the proper memory and resolution. Upon starting the AVD, this error comes up:
Failed to allocate memory: 8
Turns out I cannot use the Nexus screen resolution, and need to switch to a lower resolution to be able to start the AVD. Not sure why, but I thought you might want to know about this workaround.
