On Mx6 Running kitkat android
Our design is not going to have the usb (otg) port available. I would like to set the adbd to use the tcp connections by default. I can get it to work but I have to restart adbd about reboot.
I have tried
root@nitrogen6x: # setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555
and added
system.adb.tcp.port=5555
/data/local.prop
and/or
/system/build.prop
I can get adb to connect
<sdk>\platform-tools> adb connect 172.16.0.45
ONLY if i restart adbd
root@nitrogen6x: # stop adbd
root@nitrogen6x: # start adbd
I don't under why this is required.. in system/core/adb/adb.c
I see
...
// If one of these properties is set, also listen on that port
// If one of the properties isn't set and we couldn't listen on usb,
// listen on the default port.
property_get("service.adb.tcp.port", value, "");
if (!value[0]) {
property_get("persist.adb.tcp.port", value, "");
}
if (sscanf(value, "%d", &port) == 1 && port > 0) {
printf("using port=%d\n", port);
// listen on TCP port specified by service.adb.tcp.port property
local_init(port);
} else if (!usb) {
// listen on default port
local_init(DEFAULT_ADB_LOCAL_TRANSPORT_PORT);
}
I don't understand what is preventing it from starting correctly without adbd restart.
Any thoughts before I start ripping up the code :-)
