Answer 1

You can start the emulator on the console with emulator -avd <the avd name> and add options for qemu with -qemu in your case -qemu -vnc :2 will start a VNC server listening at Port 5902. If you get an error, that your keymap was not found you can creating a symlink from android-sdks/tools/keymaps to the keymaps folder of your local qemu install.

Until now I couldn't find out, how to forward the mouse to the VNC server.

I am using novnc and getting this error on novnc server console 8: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready 9: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready 10: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready 11: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready 13: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready 12: 127.0.0.1: ignoring socket not ready did you got any idea how to do it ? – Edgaredgard

@Bevvy did you ever find out how to forward mouse/keyboard to the vnc server running on the android emulator? – Romie

Answer 2

You'll be probably better running a vnc server inside your emulator.

Install a vnc server on your emulator (Fastdroid is fine).

Now, you can start your emulator without window using

emulator -avd avd_name -no-window -qemu
