Adb over wireless without usb cable at all for not rooted phones [duplicate]

Answer 1

This might help:

If the adb connection is ever lost:

Make sure that your host is still connected to the same Wi-Fi network your Android device is. Reconnect by executing the "adb connect IP" step. (IP is obviously different when you change location.) Or if that doesn't work, reset your adb host: adb kill-server and then start over from the beginning.

Answer 2

Had same issue, however I'm using Macbook Pro (2016) which has USB-c only and I forgot my adapter at home.

Since unable to run adb at all on my development machine, I found a different approach.

Connecting phone with USB cable to another computer (in same WiFi) and enable run adb tcpip from there.

Master-machine : computer where development goes on, with only USB-C connectors

Slave-machine: another computer with USB and in same WiFi

Steps:

1. Connect the phone to a different computer (slave-machine)
2. Run adb usb && adb tcpip 5555 from there

3. On master machine

   deko$: adb devices
   List of devices attached
   
   deko$: adb connect 10.0.20.153:5555
   connected to 10.0.20.153:5555
   

4. Now Android Studio or Xamarin can install and run app on the phone

---

Sidenote:

I also tested Bluetooth tethering from the Phone to Master-machine and successfully connected to phone. Both Android Studio and Xamarin worked well, however the upload process, from Xamarin was taking long time. But it works.

There are actually apps on the Play store to enable wifi connections automatically. You'll need root though to do it without a cable. The top choices in https://play.google.com/store/search?q=adb%20wireless all have root and non-root options. Without root you'll need to connect your cable as before; with root you can just enable the app. That saves you having to mess with the Bluetooth option.

If you also add adb to your system path on windows it makes connecting via wifi very quick and easy. Enable the app and type one line in any terminal window and you're connected.

Connect android phone without using USB cable except XIAOMI PHONES
== MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PHONE HAS USB DEBUGGING ENABLED ==
== IP Address series should NOT be '0' like 192.168.0.10
1. Connect your PC (Laptop) and Android phone to same wifi network.
2. Go to the Android SDK folder > platform-tools and open command prompt by holding the shift key and right clicking on the folder.
3. Type the command "adb tcpip 5555", and hit Enter, sometimes it gives an error but ignore it and go ahead.
4. Type "adb connect [YOUR PHONE IP]". example: "adb connect 192.168.1.34" and hit enter, your phone will be connected to PC.

For your question

Adb over wireless without USB cable at all for not rooted phones

 You can't do it for now without USB cable.

But you have an option:

Note: You need put USB at least once to achieve the following:

You need to connect your device to your computer via USB cable. Make sure USB debugging is working. You can check if it shows up when running adb devices.

Open cmd in ...\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools

Step1: Run adb devices

Ex: C:\pathToSDK\platform-tools>adb devices

You can check if it shows up when running adb devices.

Step2: Run adb tcpip 5555

Ex: C:\pathToSDK\platform-tools>adb tcpip 5555

Disconnect your device (remove the USB cable).

Step3: Go to the Settings -> About phone -> Status to view the IP address of your phone.

.

Step4: Run `adb connect

Ex: C:\pathToSDK\platform-tools>adb connect 192.168.0.2

Step5: Run adb devices again, you should see your device.

Now you can execute adb commands or use your favourite IDE for android development - wireless!

Now you might ask, what do I have to do when I move into a different work space and change WiFi networks? You do not have to repeat steps 1 to 3 (these set your phone into WiFi-debug mode). You do have to connect to your phone again by executing steps 4 to 6.

Unfortunately, the android phones lose the WiFi-debug mode when restarting. Thus, if your battery died, you have to start over. Otherwise, if you keep an eye on your battery and do not restart your phone, you can live without a cable for weeks!

Happy wireless coding!

UPDATE:

If you set C:\pathToSDK\platform-tools this path in Environment variables then there is no need to repeat all steps, you can simply use only Step 4 that's it, it will connect to your device.

To set path : My Computer-> Right click--> properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment variables -> edit path in System variables -> paste the platform-tools path in variable value -> ok -> ok -> ok

If usb is not working you should checkout debugging over bluetooth (Without Rooting)
