Create a visual device (AVD) via avdmanager command

avdmanager list (find device skin id, lets use pixel 17)
avdmanager create avd -f -n test -d 17 -k 'system-images;android-29;google_apis_playstore;x86_64'
avdmanager list avd (or emulator -list-avds)

Run AVD

emulator @test

Delete a visual device (AVD)

avdmanager delete avd -n test

is this a typo ? $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/build-tools/$(ls $ANDROID_HOME/build-tools | sort | tail -1)
you have both $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT and $ANDROID_HOME referenced
