Mac and “PANIC: Missing emulator engine program for ‘arm’ CPU.”

by

Just tried and verified on my Mac, to solve this problem, you need to specify the -kernel path manually. i.e. 

$ ~/Library/Android/sdk/emulator/emulator  @Galaxy_Nexus_Jelly_Bean_API_16 -kernel ~/Library/Android/sdk/system-images/android-16/default/armeabi-v7a/kernel-qemu

Some references for you:

  1. Emulator error: This AVD’s configuration is missing a kernel file

  2. https://developer.android.com/studio/run/emulator-commandline

— Edit —

To avoid typing the -kernel argument every time, you can also copy the ~/Library/Android/sdk/system-images/android-16/default/armeabi-v7a/kernel-qemu file to ~/Library/Android/sdk/add-ons/addon-google_apis-google-16/images/armeabi-v7a.
