How can I connect to Android with ADB over TCP? [closed]

Answer 1

I'm struct at the same issue but a simple hack adb reverse tcp:<PORT> tcp:<PORT> worked for me. It allows the system to accept tcp requests.

Thank You for reading

Answer 2

To connect your tablet using TCP port. Make sure your system and device is connected to same network.

1. Open console cmd.exe
2. Type adb tcpip 5555
3. Go to System -> Development option -> USB debugging --> Uncheck it for TCPIP connection
4. Type adb connect 192.168.1.2 this is your device IP address
5. Connected to 192.168.1.2

Connected using port forward Try to do port forwarding,

adb forward tcp:<PC port> tcp:<device port>

like:

adb forward tcp:5555 tcp:5555.

C:\Users\abc>adb forward tcp:7612 tcp:7612

C:\Users\abc>adb tcpip 7612 restarting in TCP mode port: 7612

C:\Users\abc>adb connect 10.0.0.1:7612

connected to 10.0.0.1:7612

If you get message error: device not found connect a usb device to system then follow same procedure.
for a rooted device

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
stop adbd
start adbd

I do not know how to connect the device without any USB connection at all, but if you manage to connect it maybe at another computer you can switch the adbd to TCP mode by issuing

adb tcpip <port>

from a terminal and connect to your device over wifi from any PC on the network by:

adb connect <ip>:<port>

Maybe it is also possible to switch to TCP mode from a terminal on the device.

For Windows users:

Step 1:
You have to enable Developer options in your Android phone.
You can enable Developer options using this way.
• Open Settings> About> Software Information> More.
• Then tap “Build number” seven times to enable Developer options.
• Go back to Settings menu and now you'll be able to see “Developer options” there.
• Tap it and turn on USB Debugging from the menu on the next screen.

Step 2:

Open cmd and type adb.
if you find that adb is not valid command then you have to add a path to the environment variable.

•First go to you SDK installed folder
Follow this path and this path is just for an example. D:\softwares\Development\Andoird\SDK\sdk\platform-tools\; D:\softwares\Development\Andoird\SDK\sdk\tools;
• Now search on windows system advanced setting

•

Open the Environment variable.

then open path and paste the following path this is an example.
You SDK path is different from mine please use yours. D:\softwares\Development\Andoird\SDK\sdk\platform-tools\;
D:\softwares\Development\Andoird\SDK\sdk\tools;

Step 3:

Open cmd and type adb. if you still see that adb is not valid command then your path has not set properly follow above steps.

Now you can connect your android phone to PC.

Open cmd and type adb devices and you can see your device. Find you phone ip address.

Type:- adb tcpip 5555

Get the IP address of your phone

adb shell netcfg

Now,

adb connect "IP address of your phone"

Now run your android project and if not see you device then type again adb connect IP address of your phone

For Linux and macOS users:

Step 1: open terminal and install adb using

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

Connect your phone via USB cable to PC. Type following command in terminal

adb tcpip 5555

Using adb, connect your android phone ip address.

Remove your phone.

Answer 5

I needed to get both USB and TCPIP working for ADB (don't ask), so I did the following (using directions others have posted from xda-developers)

Using adb shell:

su
#Set the port number for adbd
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555

#Run the adbd daemon *again* instead of doing stop/start, so there
#are two instances of adbd running.
adbd &

#Set the port back to USB, so the next time ADB is started it's
#on USB again.
setprop service.adb.tcp.port -1

exit

I put together a batch file for automatic enabling and connecting ADB via TCP, to a device connected via USB. With it you don't have to put in the IP manually.

@echo off
setlocal

REM Use a default env variable to find adb if possible
if NOT "%AndroidSDK%" == "" set PATH=%PATH%;%AndroidSDK%\platform-tools

REM If off is first parameter then we turn off the tcp connection.
if "%1%" == "off" goto off

REM Set vars
set port=%1
set int=%2
if "%port%" == "" set port=5557
if "%int%" == "" set int=wlan0

REM Enable TCP
adb -d wait-for-device tcpip %port%

REM Get IP Address from device
set shellCmd="ip addr show %int% | grep 'inet [0-9]{1,3}(\.[0-9]{1,3}){3}' -oE | grep '[0-9]{1,3}(\.[0-9]{1,3}){3}' -oE"
for /f %%i in ('adb wait-for-device shell %shellCmd%') do set IP=%%i

REM Connect ADB to device
adb connect %IP%:%port%

goto end

:fail
echo adbWifi [port] [interface]
echo adbWifi off
goto end

:off
adb wait-for-device usb

:end
