Android-wait-for-emulator consider avd running too early when -no-snapshot option is used with emulator command #1125
Description
Hey,
Concerning this file, we used it, and it brings us satisfaction to give back the stdin when emulator is ready to go.
But we faced an issue where "init.svc.bootanim" isn't really relevant to use when emulator is started with -no-snapshot option on emulator.
We proceeded to see wich adb shell prop could replace bootanim in 2024 on a booting avd with qemu and we found that sys.boot_completed cover the two cases (with -no-snapshot and without it).
Wich is perfect even to run an emulator in CICD (first run without -no-snapshot is indeed, without snapshot anyway).
We though as it helped us to find this script, even 7Years after, we would share our tweaks to eventually help someone :
#!/bin/bash

set +e
sysbootcompleted=""
failcounter=0
timeout_in_sec=360
until [[ "$sysbootcompleted" == "1" ]]; do
sysbootcompleted=`adb -e shell getprop sys.boot_completed 2>&1 &`
let "failcounter += 1"
echo "Waiting for emulator to start"
if [[ $failcounter -gt timeout_in_sec ]]; then
echo "Timeout ($timeout_in_sec seconds) reached; failed to start emulator"
exit 1
fi
sleep 1
done
echo "Emulator is ready"
This proposal has been made during my working time at WeScale company ;)
