I want to use my laptop camera in the Android Emulator, but the app crashes when I try to do so. Moreover, the emulator itself can't use the camera. Is there any software or SDK version that supports webcams. Currently I am using the Android Froyo 2.2 SDK.
Thanks!
I haven't tried that yet, although it sounds rather useful. You might wann check this
How to use web camera in android emulator to capture a live image?
and
Using Camera in the Android emulator
One answer says, this is only supported in the emulator starting with android ICS (4.0), but no further information is provided, so you might want to invest a little more research on this version.

So many questions..
Can I launch my project without emulator on android studio? Something like in libgdx?
Or how I can change emulator? (need low requirements)
You can set up your phone in order to display the app you are developing withoup needing the android emulator itself. You must enlable developer options and maybe install some drivers. Check this links:

When everytihing is done you should be able to run the app in your phone
I've the problem that some users with an Oneplus3 and the most recent Oxygen 4 version (Android Nougat) don't see any camera preview image anymore (it stays blank/black). The UI elements are still visible.
They also said in previous versions of oxygen OS the app was working correctly. I found out, that other apps got the same behaviour and fixed it, recently (i.e. Google's Cardboard Camera). But I don't know how to fix it and don't have a test device like the OP3.
I'm using the min SDK version 14 and the Camera API v1 with a SurfaceView to show the camera preview. On my phone (LG G4 with Marshmallow) the app works as expected.
Is somebody of you familiar with that issue and know how to fix it? What else can I try to solve that problem? Can you reproduce that issue on others phones with Android N, too?
You can find the source here: https://github.com/kloener/visor-android
For testing you can directly download it from Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.visorapp.visor) or on github-releases (https://github.com/kloener/visor-android/releases)
kind regards and thanks
They need to give camera permission from application settings. I know they accept it while setting up app. But for Nougat user need to give an extra permission.
I'm developing a game for Android via Andengine. I finished coding my game and it works fine in phone and BlueStacks emulator. But It doesn't work on Android Virtual Device Manager emulator. I'm getting an error which is on picture below.

As stated by Google itself, in the official Android documentation, the Android emulator does not support yet the OpenGL ES 2.0 features.
Please refer to this official document.

You're using OpenGLES-2 without a doubt.
I am learning android on API-8 (Froyo), but the problem is the emulator is also for Froyo which doesn't include the facility of sending email from app or capture a picture from webcam.
I was wondering if I download the emulator for ICS 4.0 in order to run my Froyo apps, will this emulator provides the following features:
Sending email
Supports computer's webcam for capturing pictures
Ok so first of all:
The Android Emulator is always the same for a given SDK version.
It is the system that runs on it that differ.
Android emulator documentation
Then, to send email from the emulator please reffer to How can i configure gmail in Android emulator?
And finally to capture a webcam's video, check:

This question might be silly...but still:
I would like to learn the Android SDK, now I dont have an Android based phone,Can I still develop for it even if I dont own an android phone?
thanks
Yes. The Android SDK comes with an emulator, so you can run your apps on that.
Get Eclipse and Download the Android SDK through eclipse. This will allow you to debug your apps on the emulator right from your IDE. Also allows for Android App projects and code highlighting.
Yes. There is an (essentially) fully functional emulator.
