GenyMotion without VT-x. First of all get GenyMotion, VirtualBox. Then setup/install all of these. After that sign in to GenyMotion. (JellyBean is recommended). Don’t play resource intensive apps on this. DON’T run the VM from GenyMotion interface, as it will crash the VM! Share this: Click to share on Google+ (Opens. I've switched over to virtualbox for my development VM so that i can run both by dev vm and Genymotion at the same time. Migrating from Hyper-V and VMWare was easy I see about the same performance as well. Android virtual devices: AVD Manager versus Genymotion. Including installing Android on VirtualBox. But when it comes to testing apps and debugging, two names are thrown around quite a bit.

This question already has an answer here:
I'm currently trying out Genymotion and boy, it's so much faster than the ADT emulator.
But I need to install Google Play to download some apps into it. How do I do this?

Note(Feb 2nd): Contrary to previous reports, it's been discovered that Android 4.4 does in fact work with ARM translation, although it is buggy. Follow the steps the same as before, just make sure you download the 4.4 GApps.
UPDATE-v1.1: I've gotten more up-to-date builds of libhoudini and have updated the ZIP file. This fixes a lot of app crashes and hangs. Just flash the new one, and it should work.
This guide is for getting back both ARM translation/support (this is what causes the 'INSTALL_FAILED_CPU_ABI_INCOMPATIBLE' errors) and Google Play apps in your Genymotion VM.
I've tested this on Genymotion v2.0.1-v2.1 using Android 4.3 and 4.4 images. Feel free to skip the GApps steps if you only want the ARM support. It'll work perfectly fine by itself.

Since the previous answer no longer applies for new devices created with Genymotion 2.0, here is a new solution.
The reason it no longer applies is because Genymotion no longer includes Google Apps in the virtual device image. According to Genymotion they are working with Google, but in the meantime this is a good workaround.

EDIT 2
After three months we can say: no more official Google Apps in Genymotion and CyanogenMod-like method is only way to get Google Apps. However, you can still use the previous project of the Genymotion team: AndroVM (download mirror).
EDIT
Google apps will be removed from Genymotion in November. You can find more information on the Genymotion Google Plus page.

Now there is official FAQ for using Google Play in How do I install Google Play Services?, here the FAQ text:
For intellectual property reasons, Google Play Services are not included by default in Genymotion virtual devices. However, if you really need them, you can use the packages provided by OpenGapps. Simply follow these steps:

I could flash the ARM translation but not the gapps, using https://stackoverflow.com/a/20013322/98057. I got the 'Ooops, something went wrong while flashing gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip' error mentioned above. If you read the Genymotion logs and find an entry like:
Try to apply the flash using
adb directly:
![]()
Change these commands according to what your log files say (the path and IP will probably be different).
I found the Genymobile log files in the following folder, by the way:

Google Apps KitKat for Genymotion.
Download the Google Apps ZIP file from the link which contain the essential Google Apps such as Play Store, Gmail, YouTube, etc.
After finishing booting, drag and drop the ZIP file we downloaded named update-gapps-4-4-2-signed.zip to the Genymotion Window. It starts installing the Google Apps, and it asks for your confirmation. Confirm it.

Try to do all the steps specified in the link below and before that upgrade VirtualBox to 4.2 by following the instructions in VirtualBox 4.2.0 Released With Support For Drag'n'drop From Host To Linux Guests, More. Then upgrade Genymotion to the latest version.
Go to the desktop and run Genymotion. Select a virtual device with Android version 4.2 and then drag and drop the two files Genymotion-ARM-Translation_v1.1.zip first. Then Genymotion will show progress and after this it will promt a dialog. Then click OK and it will ask to reboot the device. Restart ADB. Do the same steps for the second file, gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip and restart ADB.
I hope this will resolve the issue. Check this link - it explains it clearer.

If anyone got an error while signing in to Google and this message appear:
Couldn't Sign In
can't establish a reliable connection to the server..
then try to sign in from the browser - in YouTube, Gmail, Google sites, etc.
This helped me. After signing in in the browser I was able to sign in the Google Play app..
