I think, it is almost impossible for me to download ORCLE VM VIRTUAL BOX, as it shows many errors while installation. While I try to solve the errors by downloading or manually updating drivers (those not shown in synaptic), some of them conflicts with existing libs.
So, I stopped trying for GENYMOTION, which was once my favorite.
I use the latest MINT (sonya)...
Thanks. Now I have a second account of Clash of Clans and Clash Royale :D
yes work
use this command :- ./genymotion-2.2.2_x64.bin --uninstall
but what's the problem ??
how do i uninstall this genymotion thing
Unable to load VirtualBox engine.
Yeah, @Dudeofx your right but i found that geanymotion provide better performance than running other tools hence i posted !!!
please note: I am not Adverting/promoting Geanymotion.
I am open-source lover !!
I found out myself, its an emulator probably based on android x86, I think it sounded like commercial spam because the website has a commercial tone and this post didn't mention the SDK or using VirtualBox
umm, to save time for myself and others, what is the difference between Geanymotion and the Android SDK or installing x86-Android on virtual box? Is it more native to linux like wine or is it emulating like the methods I mentioned?
Informative
Commercial spam? Why Do you think so ? Geanymotion is Free for Personal USE !!!
Whats wrong with remoulder... calling everything spam.
Commercial spam?
