Has good accuracy but forcefully uninstalls VirtualBox, so it cannot co-exist with Genymotion and Xamarin. It's not recommended because it will install hidden background services (xunlei.exe, and Thunder.exe, both by the Chinese company which developed Droid4x) that seed Chinese torrents constantly and they are a pain to uninstall or deactivate (in case you've already fallen for it, use Revo Uninstaller).
;AndyroidAndy OS:Not recommended because it will install a [https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/8rq4fm/reminder_that_andyroid_mines_cryptocurrency/ cryptocurrency miner] on your system without asking or informing about this to the user. Just like Genymotion, Andyroid Andy OS uses VirtualBox, but with a twist: if it detects an installed VirtualBox during installation, '''it will delete it''' and will refuse to work. Beware!
;DuOS
Some games take more aggressive measures to detect the presence of Custom ROMs (unofficial firmware) or Android emulators (like the ones listed in this page) in the variety of ways like checking for the existence or absence of system files in order to prevent the game from running in any unverified environments. These games are very difficult or plain impossible to play on emulators without resorting to cracked versions of the games.
===Android-based Operating Systems===
There are many [[wikipedia:Fork_(software_development)|forks]] of Android, these go beyond a custom UI and are new OS's that use the Android code in addition to writing their own code. depending on how much (and what) new code, features and API's were added, will determine the effects they will have on Android emulation but if one is for sure, these forks are (most likely) going to cause some emulation issues.
==Emulator Specific Issues==
Pass in a kernel option to grub when booting. Select the boot entry and then press 'e' to edit it, and then 'e' to edit again. Add the kernel option here. For example, to use a video resolution of 1920x1080, add 'video=1920x1080'. Press return to save the changes (for this boot session only), and 'b' to boot (the keys to edit and boot may be different depending on your grub version, there are usually instructions on the grub screen for the requisite keys)
==Android Consoles==
Because it's possible to fork and created you're own Android-based OS, many developers have used Android to power their own commercial console. However, as mentioned before, just because it uses Android as a base does not mean they will all work properly on a normal Android emulator.

|A failed microconsole that started from a Kickstarter project. The controller sucks and the games can be found elsewhere. Since the Ouya runs on Android, emulation is technically possible by extracting menu/application apk files and running them in an Android emulator or VM.
