title: Android: RemoteConnection failed to initialize: RemoteConnection failed to open pipe
body: <p>Recently, my emulators on Android stopped to run projects properly. What follows is: the project is built, the app installs and runs, but never leaves the initial blank/splash screen (also doesn't perform any network calls). This issue is only happening on my Emulators, I can run on physical devices and it works like a charm.</p>
  <p>Analyzing the LogCat on AndroidStudio, I have found the following errors:</p>
  <pre><code>E/wifi_forwarder: qemu_pipe_open_ns:62: Could not connect to the 'pipe:qemud:wififorward' service: Invalid argument
  E/wifi_forwarder: RemoteConnection failed to initialize: RemoteConnection failed to open pipe
  E/netmgr: qemu_pipe_open_ns:62: Could not connect to the 'pipe:qemud:network' service: Invalid argument
  E/netmgr: Failed to open QEMU pipe 'qemud:network': Invalid argument
  </code></pre>
  <p>Looking for <code>qemud:network</code> I found some possible solutions such as adding</p>
  <pre><code>&lt;application
      android:usesCleartextTraffic=&quot;true&quot; &gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>to AndroidManifest.xml. After changing it, the <code>'pipe:qemud:network'</code> seemed to disappear but the <code>'pipe:qemud:wififorward'</code> still remains and I can't find any fixes for that. This is blocking me in so many ways right now.</p>
  <p>Any idea what might be happening?</p>
