Cannot get arm64 emulator up and running on ubuntu-latest

[AngelDev06]

What I get is the following:

  ^ keeps repeating the above till timeout...

I have 0 clue what's going on, I might be missing a package or something?
I have initialized the action like this:

uses: ReactiveCircus/[email protected]
with:
  arch: arm64-v8a
  api-level: 24
  script: ./scripts/android-run-tests.sh ${{ steps.strings.outputs.cmake-preset }}

Okay, so I went deep, and the problem seemed to be the issue with enough space on the OS. If you clear the caches, it will work.

Hi @AngelDev06 , I've also come across the emulator startup issue recently.

You can check the shell script ./scripts/android-run-tests.sh. Before checking the property by adb shell getprop sys.boot_completed, is there a command adb wait-for-device out there to wait for device state change ?

What cache you cleaned? The GH one? How did you clean it?

I cleared space on GHA with something like this: https://github.com/android/nowinandroid/blob/420076f01aadd61f650b6848cd23643ca59226b8/.github/workflows/Build.yaml#L159-L168
