Description

If you pass in an AVD ID without Skin, HVGA is used as default and passed with the emulator command. If the AVD you chose does not support HVGA, the launch will fail with:

[ERROR]Emulator process exited with code 1

The behavior I was expecting was for the default skin listed with the AVD would be used. You can see the set default in the output of "android list". Steps to reproduce: 1) Run command "android list" in the terminal to see available AVDs 2) Make a note of an AVD ID that does not support HVGA Skin 3) Create a new project 4) Run command ti build -p android -I Result: HVGA Skin is chosen as Default, and will fail if AVD ID does not support that skin. Expected: AVD launches with AVD default skin if no skin passed in.

This was fixed by the PRs for TIMOB-14973. The fix was to supply a list of emulators to pick and clear error messages. Titanium CLI pull request: https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium/pull/55 node-appc pull request: https://github.com/appcelerator/node-appc/pull/56 Titanium Mobile pull request: https://github.com/appcelerator/titanium_mobile/pull/4658 See the comments on TIMOB-14973 for how to test.

In the new Android build command, specifying an AVD_ID without a skin causes an error and prompts the user to select an emulator based on device-id. The bug is no longer valid.
