Android wireless debugging on multiple devices

Question

By following Google ADB Documentation i am able to connect to device wireless . But i want to connect more than one device.



For adb wireless to work i have to restart adb in tcpip mode



Once i did that i can connect to a device but to connect to another device i will have to restart adb in usb mode again which will disconnect the first device.



Simple solution would be to connect both device with usb and then restart adb in tcpip. But i don't have any extra set of usb cable right now.



So is there any other way to connect more than one device except for the method i mentioned above.

Answer

adb tcpip <port> doesn't restart the adb daemon in your PC but in Android and binds it to listen to that specific port. You can always connect multiple devices in wireless mode.



Follow these steps:




  1. Plug first device and restart adbd in tcpip mode using adb tcpip <port>.

  2. Connect to first device using adb connect <host>:<port>.

  3. Unplug first device, plug second device and restart adbd in tcpip mode using adb -s <serial> tcpip <port>.

  4. Connect to second device using adb connect <host>:<port>.



You may now unplug the second device. If you execute adb devices you would see both the devices connected in wireless mode. Whenever you intend to do any operation on any of the device, supply identifier using -s.
