Flutter not working with android emulator

[acryst...@gmail.com]

I was trying to run my flutter app and the output seemed to be going fine,

Launching lib/main.dart on Android SDK built for x86 in debug mode...
Initializing gradle...                                6.8s
Resolving dependencies...                            20.5s
Running 'gradlew assembleDebug'...                   32.1s
Built build/app/outputs/apk/app-debug.apk (21.2MB).
Installing build/app/outputs/apk/app.apk...           8.7s

until I got these errors, which I didn't get when linking it to a physical android phone.

E/flutter ( 6995): [ERROR:flutter/shell/gpu/gpu_surface_gl.cc(161)] Could not wrap onscreen surface.
Syncing files to device Android SDK built for x86...
E/flutter ( 6995): [ERROR:flutter/shell/gpu/gpu_surface_gl.cc(161)] Could not wrap onscreen surface.

I was wondering if any of you had ideas as to why this is happening. Should I choose a different emulator (I'm using Pixel API 25 running Nougat), or is there something I should configure in flutter to work properly on emulators... or is it something else like a glitch in flutter's code? Help would be appreciated.

Thanks for reporting this. The issue was first reported and then fixed some 5-6 days ago (see #11484). But the fix has not made it into the alpha branch yet. You can switch to the master channel, or check out an earlier version of the alpha branch:

flutter channel master or

git checkout d4beaf54f03f01710e46c96b6273d09c7f044d0a

 Thanks a lot! I ran the command 'flutter channel master', and then when I did 'flutter run' it worked perfectly.
