Access files from genymotion sd card

Question

I have been using genymoton for quite some time now.

Maybe someone pls. tell me is there a way by which I can access the files present on the genymotion emulator sd card?

Currently, I have to upload them to Google Driver and then upload to Windows.

Answer 1

You can use a shared folder for this. This is explained on this page on Google+ .

Here is a short one:

• Go to the VirtualBox VM tab / tab with shared folder
• Add a shared folder with the folder that you want to use and select the "auto-mount" checkbox
• Start your virtual machine, as usual, with Genymotion software.
• Your shared folder is available in the / mnt / shared directory (multiple shared folders are supported)

Answer 2

It is also possible using the Android Device Monitor . You already have this if you have the Android SDK installed. This method works for all connected devices, including emulators such as genymotion.

In Android Studio, click the icon that displays Android Device Monitor in the toolbar. (This is also available in Eclipse or you can simply enter monitor at the command line after going to the tools folder of your installed sdk)

In the Android Android monitor, go to the Explorer tab. Make sure you have the device selected on the left side.

Find the desired file and select it. For sdCard, you may need to open the storage folder and open the SD card there.

Click the button at the top that says, “Pull the file from the device.” Make sure you select Pull , not Push. If you do not want new files on your device.

Save the file to your computer ... and voila! The file from your genymotion is now included in your other files on your computer. Ready to use as you like.

Or, alternatively, you can also use a third-party application, for example, airdroid or any advanced file explorer to exchange files between your device and your computer. (To install third-party applications, you first need to find apk or flash gapps in your genymotion and go to the play store.)

Answer 3

In another way that I accepted, just install EsFileEx on genymotion. Take the files you want to copy, for example,

 /sdcard/WhatsApp/media/dp.jpeg 

Swipe over the local network, here you can see your local computer as 10.0.3.2 or any IP address. Here you can access your shared folder / drive of the local computer / PC, the file copied here and you are done!

ATTENTION! R / W permission must be set in the shared folder / drive of the local computer / PC

You can use eclipse with the ADT plugin and view the file system just like any other Android virtual emulator. I used this for a while, but the eclipse falls several times.
