The wear emulator does not work #366

Description

@codeanticode

The wear avd created by the mode does not initialize properly in the emulator, giving this error:

This can be reproduced by creating the avd from the command line with the following command:

bin/avdmanager create avd -n Processing-Wear-0263 -k "system-images;android-25;android-wear;x86" -d "wear_square"

and then launching it with

./emulator @Processing-Wear-0263 -gpu auto -port 5576

The size of the emulator window in the above image does not seem to be correct, but if one uses the -skin option in the emulator call like so:

./emulator @Processing-Wear-0263 -gpu auto -skin 280x280 -port 5576

then the wear emulator works. However, this option is deprecated, and avdmanager does not have an option to set the skin.

update: @rupak0577 pointed to this workaround. Apparently, avdmanager does not yet allow to set the AVD's skin.
