[ISSUE]Cannot boot 3.4.0-0 in AVD about android_device_emulator_twrp HOT 4 OPEN

Just found that we have to use twrpx86(_64) for x86(_64) architecture AVDs from https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_emulator_twrpx86 and https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_emulator_twrpx8664

But there is no precompiled ramdisk img is there like goldfish kernel and twrp.img😥. I am not a developer and don't have the knowledge to compile recovery.

from android_device_emulator_twrp.

• Upto 2.7.0.1 TWRP images are built with 'emmc' branch.(check difference in etc/recovery.fstab)
• 2.8.x versions are built with 'android-4.4' branch.(check difference in etc/recovery.fstab)
• 3.x versions are built with 'android-6.0' branch.(presence of init.recovery.goldfish.rc with 'seclabel u:r:recovery:s0' line)

Download Link:- https://dl.twrp.me/twrp/

So, it is better use 2.8.x.y versions in android-4.4.2(19) and 3.x.y-z(upto 3.4.0-0 as of now) versions in android-6.0(23) AVDs.

Update

With above references, I have set AVD with below configuaration

• SDK Tools 24.4.1
• Android 6.0 armeabi-v7a
• Target as Galaxy Nexus
• Skin 'Skin with dynamic hardware controls'
• Internal Storage 2000MiB
• SDCARD 2000MiB
• TWRP 3.4.0-0(unpacked img and gzipped ramdisk.cpio manually)
• goldfish_3.4_kernel from android-6.0 branch.

Result is black screen only.

But 3.0.2-0, 3.1.0-0(both unpacked img and gzipped ramdisk.cpio manually) are booting fine with above configuration.

Below configuaration works fine for me

• SDK Tools 24.2.0
• Android 4.4.2 armeabi-v7a
• Target - Galaxy Nexus
• Skin 'Skin with dynamic hardware controls'
• Internal Storage 500MiB
• SDCARD 1500MiB
• TWRP 2.8.5.0(unpacked img and gzipped ramdisk.cpio)
• goldfish_3.4_kernel from android-4.4 branch.

never version of emulator requires newer goldfish kernel 3.10+
