Steps to configure the ADB connection over Wi-Fi
-
Connect the device and the computer to the same Wi-Fi network
-
Plug the device to the computer with a USB cable to configure the connection
-
On the computer command line type:
adb tcpip 5555
-
On the computer command line type:
adb shell ip addr show wlan0
and copy the IP address after the “inet” until the “/”. You can also go inside the Settings of the device to retrieve the IP address in Settings → About → Status. -
On the computer command line type:
adb connect ip-address-of-device:5555
-
You can disconnect the USB cable from the device and check with
adb devices
that the device is still detected.
adb install [-l] [-r] [-d] [-s] [–algo <algorithm name> –key <hex-encoded key> –iv <hex-encoded iv>] <file> – push this package file to the device and install it
(‘-l’ means forward-lock the app)
(‘-r’ means reinstall the app, keeping its data)
(‘-d’ means allow version code downgrade)
(‘-s’ means install on SD card instead of internal storage)
(‘–algo’, ‘–key’, and ‘–iv’ mean the file is encrypted already)
