I’m using M1 chip : MacPro with below details for my appium automation.Before I used Intel, same framework is used to fine, now I’m using M1 chip. I have other configuration for M1 in bash profile.
While running, I noticed My UIAutomator2 server is not running in my first test, it started working after 3rd test. My emulator is not loading quite well at first test, then automatically it starts working fine after few test.
I din’t understand it’s my driver issue or emulator issue

You have all these warnings in your log and an indication that not fixing these may affect performance. Can I ask why you choose not to fix these? This really seems like a setup issue.
For capabilities you can reference this link for what values should be supplied. Note that there is a big difference between 1000 and ‘1000’, and, false and ‘false’:
Hi Wreed. Thanks for looking, yeah i fixed those warnings. But still notice my emulator loads slowly ,sometimes cold boot resolves the issue.but not every time.

Did you post the wrong log? Still seeing same errors.
It looks like you have errors in both Appium and the underlying ADB. I think you can fix Appium errors by fixing the capabilities as noted above. Maybe try clean install for ADB?
Thanks Wreed for guidance. All above issues are resolved. M1 chip having compatible issue with old android studio. I downloaded latest one, then above issue is resolved. I have set capability in class than property file.
when you create an avd (emulator) with android studios’s UI, make sure you choose an ARM Image (ABI: arm64-v8a) which is compatible for a M1 device and that’s why your emulator might not function well as you mentioned.
I updated my repo to use java-client 8.0.0 and it has an issue with the plafotmName capability which was fixed in version 8.1.1 (java-client release notes
) so I had to update. If I remember correctly, it caused different errors regarding the “settings delete global hidden_api_policy_p_apps” so it maybe worth to update your client as well if it will happen again.
