ADB WiFi

Run ADB over WiFi after USB debugging is working. Default TCP port is 5555.

Setup

1. Download and install the Google USB driver from SDK Manager.
2. Install the vendor-specific driver.
3. Enable USB debugging on the device.

Connect

SU

On a rooted device:

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

Non-SU

1. Connect via USB and list devices:

adb devices

1. Restart ADB on the client (debugger) in TCP mode. Default port is 5555. Compulsory on Mac:

adb tcpip [port]
adb tcpip 5555

It should say restarting in TCPIP mode. Another program using ADB, like Android Studio, should not be running.

1. Disconnect USB.

1. Reconnect to ADB on WiFi. Example IP 192.168.1.31. Default port is 5555:

adb connect <IP>[:port]

Reconnect on USB

adb usb

kill-server if ADB is already running.
