Hi @Fino,
In that thread @rgonalo said that you need to run appium without the --avd option, and run the genymotion emulator in another command.
You can create a script to run it using player inside genymotion application.
/PATH to Genymotino/player --vm-name “Emulator name”

@Fino,
Check this link1 and this link2.
It depends on which OS and environment you are using, if you provide more information would be easier to identify the others problems you might have.
So, when you are using genymotion you must remove the Emulator option within the Appium app, otherwise it wont work.
Here’s an example:

  1. Manually start the genymotion emulator
  2. Start Appium app (i think you must be using the GUI)
  3. Go to Android option, and disable the Launch device section
  4. Now try to launch the Appium
