Genymotion Still waiting at "Booting"

I use Genymotion for Android Studio but genymotion still booting does not On status
I searched for a solution and followed
Uninstall and Re-install
Clear Cache
Remove device and new install
Fix Host-Only Ethernet to default
And another thing to try
But I can't fix it
Genymotion v3.0.1
VM VirtualBox v6.0.4
Please help me find a solution. Help me.
Sorry for my english

Tried to reset cache, re-create the device, toggle network mode, upgrade Genymotion to 3.0.1, and NONE of them worked.
A temp fix to change "booting" status to "on":
Open Genymotion Shell
run devices list
then run in a new terminal adb connect [DEVICE IP]:5555

Looks, like this is some adb or Genymotion bug. To solve this, you must manually connect adb to running Genymotion Device In first, you need to know Androids internal IP. You can find it in window title of Genymotion device. Next:
cd to your Android SDK dir
cd to platform-tools
./adb connect 192.168.57.102:5555
where 192.168.57.102 is my IP address of Genymotion Virtual Device. You must put here your own

I killed the running adb process in task manager and the status of the genymotion device changes from booting to on. Finally the genymotion emulator can now be recognized.

just go to Control Panel\NetworkandInternet\Network Connections just c to that virtual host-only network is enabled and disable other duplicate virtual host-network which are with "#" and try to start again. It works for me

Try to run genymotion as administrator. It worked for me.But then you will not be able to add files to the emulator by using drag & drop feature.

Tryed solutions but none worked for me.
At the end run the genymotion as a administrator, now it's work for me.

Solution:
make sure there are no adb servers running. Use the command adb kill-server to kill any running server.
set Genymotion to Use Genymotion Android tools (default)
See: https://docs.genymotion.com/latest/Content/02_Application/Configuring_Genymotion/ADB.htm
This work for me.
I am very happy to be able to solve this problem, I can't work for 2 days with this problem.

One possible reason for the occurrence of this error is due to the difference in adb versions in the development machine and the connected connected device/emulator being used for debugging.
So resolution is:
Firstly disconnect device/emulator.
Run on terminal/command prompt following commands:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
This will start the adb successfully. Now you can connect device. Hope it helps.

No logcat output in eclipse

I recently switched to connecting to the phone via WiFi. I am able to compile and upload programs through Eclipse. However, I do not receive any logcat ouput. The phone is also shown in the DDMS view and when my program is started it also displays the name and pid. Is it possible to get the logcat trace via wireless or do I have to switch back to using a USB connection?
UPDATE:
Maybe I did not make it clear enough in my initial post. There is no problem with the connection itself. I can dump the logcat by using a terminal with 'adb logcat -d'. What I want is to see the live logcat in Eclipse's logcat viewer. Not sure if it is of any importance, but I am using Eclipse 3.8 in Debian Jessie.

(1) connect phone with usb, then type in command line:
adb tcpip 5555
you can disconnect your phone from usb now
(if the reason for using wifi is that usb does not work on your machine, just do the above on another computer
(2) find out the IP address of your mobile device (somewhere under settings .... phone status)
(3) in command line type:
adb connect [IP of your mobile]
NOTE: all devices need to be connected to same wifi; avoid using public wifis

In your eclipse,
just go to: windows->preferences->Android->logcat and follow the following setup:
1. double-click action: "go to problem (error line)
2. switch to: java
3. both checkboxes are checked
if setup is fine, clean the project and restart eclipse

Restart Your ADB Server
1) open cmd
2) change directory to platform-tools
3)type adb kill-server
4)then adb start-server

I am not sure what exactly happened, but it is working now. I did not do anything that I had not tried earlier. It just started working after several attempts. Might be a faulty Eclipse installation, it did crash earlier today.

ADB not responding. You can wait more, or kill "adb.exe" ... windows 8

When I try to test my Android application with an android emulator as always I now suddenly get an error message. I'm working with Windows 8. So far I tried the following things which unfortunately could not solve the problem:
reinstalling eclipse with android adt
reinstalling java
installing "android studios" first solved the problem but after one day mysteriously also here adb, stopped working with the error message given in the title " ADB not responding ...
furthermore I unsuccessfully tried out some advice from Mr. Google:
Stopping adb.exe via task-manager and restarting eclipse / android studios
"adb kill-server" then "start-server" via command prompt
setting the path to adb.exe as an environment variable
switching off any antivirus or firewall
starting the IDEs as an administrator
updating the IDEs
The only thing I can remember doing which may have destroyed adb on my computer for all times: I connected my motorola smartphone to my laptop and installed the motorola usb drivers but as I said the adb also won't work with the emulator.
Any help would be kindly appreciated. The issue bothers me for more than an entire day now. Maybe someone had similar problems on Windows 8 ?

On OSX helped:
Close Android Studio
Kill all processess using 5037 port
sudo lsof -i |grep 5037
sudo kill PID_NUMBER
Run adb devices from console
adb devices

Meanwhile the emulator is working again. I cannot definetly say what solved the problem. What It could be a combination of two things:
Deleting the hidden ".android" folder under C:\Users...
(Probably there was some malfunctioning automatically created code)
Deleting and recreating the Path variable to the folder with adb.exe ( ...\sdk\platform-tools\;)
Finally it could be a Windows 8 issue which I don't understand.

Try this,
Open a command prompt with administration permission and type
netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
This worked for me
Edit: Windows only

Kill the adb.exe with a command prompt. Open a command prompt were your adb.exe is located and type
adb kill-server

Maybe HTTP Proxy blocked the localhost 127.0.0.1:5037
If you have config the HTTP Proxy, make sure to exclude the localhost like picture below
Also, port can also be blocked by the firewall and anti-virus firewall, please notice as well.

Try this,
at the prompt try adb kill-server
Start one of your AVDs
at the prompt try adb root
The prompt should say adbd is already running as root.
That should fix it.

In case it helps anyone else, for me the problem was related with the USB hub that the tablet was plugged into on the computer (unplugging the webcam which was in use fixed it).

I got the same error. Don't worry. I have an solution. Go to Task Manager. Kill the process called adb.exe. You will find 2 or 3 processes. Kill all of them. You are done. It will work.

I have the same problems. Verify port 5037 is free and ports 5555 to 5585 are available and never used by another process.
"ADB server sets up connections to all running emulator/device instances. It locates emulator/device instances by scanning odd-numbered ports in the range 5555 to 5585"
FROM: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
To find out which process is listening on a port on Windows yo can use:
C:> netstat -an -o
FROM: How can you find out which process is listening on a port on Windows?

I had the same problem, here is my simple fix:
-Go to task manager in windows, look for adb.exe, and kill it
-Go to command prompt, and tap adb devices ==> it will automaticaly start adb daemon

I finally just restarted the computer, and that solved the issue for me.

Uninstall HTC Sync. Or disable it somehow.

Try to open adb from command prompt from directory location as <sdk>\platform-tools,
If adb file is missing try to re-install Android SDK with latest version,
And try to run again..
I think issues will solved, by this procedure.

I saw this on a Mac OS X.
I shut down Android Studio and ran adb get-state in the terminal. When I started Android Studio back up, the warning had gone away.
BTW, I did just try restarting Android Studio without any luck. I am sure a restart of OS would have fixed it too.

The same thing with the Asus Sync utility (with the both our Transformer's 700 and 701).
I think there is a USB-port conflict between ABD driver and Sync utility.
Exit from Sync utility resolve the problem.

Looks like this could be caused by a bunch of different issues. This just happened to me because I had my android phone device plugged in for USB debugging, then after a few hours (and multiple android studio/phpstorm restarts) I had to do unplug the device manually. Things started working again after unplugging.

I have faced this problem few days ago. When I opened my task manager it showing me two adb runnig. It may be because of I am using mobogenie for connecting my android phone for debugging application. This problem is because of moboginie and adt port conflict. then I have followed following procedure to sort out this issue.
!) close eclipse
2) Go to task manager and kill all adb processes.
3) Now go to platform-tools in android sdk
4)press shift+right click mouse and select "open command window here" option
5) type
adb kill-server
adb start-server
6)if server sucessfully started then start eclipse and then connect your phone
(Remember dont connect your phone before starting eclipse)

Following works for me every time:
go to File->Invalidate Caches/Restart
select Invalidate and Restart
And, You are good to go.

Debugging android device over the Internet

I am looking for a way to debug a device remotely over the Internet.
I am getting a lot of bug reports from my users which I can't even reproduce. It would be easy to solve them if I could debug the device over the Internet as if it were connected to my PC.
Is this possible?
I heard about debugging over wifi in local network, maybe there is similar way to achieve it over the Internet?

It is possible to setup Android device for debugging over Internet, however it requires USB connection to enable it or root access on the device. In addition to that you will have to setup port forwarding to device to accept incoming ADB connections from the the Internet. It hardly can help unless users of your app are developers with great desire to cooperate.
You can find detailed instructions here:
http://www.cleansoft.lv/debugging-android-applications-remotely/

Steps to Follow:
First In Android Settings Application go to About Device option.
Click 9 times on Build Number option, so that you can unlock Developer Options setting.
Now In you Setting's Application, you will have Developer Options enabled, go and click on it.
set following options on : Stay Awake, USB Debugging and if you have Internet Adb option in menu set that also enabled if not then dont worry continue the steps.
Now open your Android Studio and the application you want to run on the android device.
In Android Studio, at bottom click on Terminal tab, Terminal window opens.
Now through your terminal go to the directory where your Android SDK is stored
In SDK directory go to platform-tools directory.
Now if you list the files in the platform-tools you will see adb there.
Running following Commands.
as an example.
adb connect <ip-address-of-your-device>:5555
as an example:
adb connect 10.10.0.21:5555
The terminal should show something like below
adb server is out of date. killing...
*daemon started successfully*
connected to 10.10.0.21:5555
Now run shell command
adb shell
you will get the prompt something like this, i my case i used android x86 device for debugging.
shell#x86_64:/$
Now if you go to the task bar in the android studio and click on Run options and then Run'app' you will be able to see the device as your Deployment Target.
Hope it helps !

You can use Crashlytics in your app.. It helps you to get the detailed crash logs. Whenever an app crashes, it will send you the detailed crash report, from which you can figure out what is happening at the client side.
Get more info about adding crashlytics to the app from here.
Send this new app to the client so can have workaround:

You can also use adb via tcp ip:
adb connect ip:port
Use a remote access (teamviewer or droid apk) to enable debugging in android developer tools.
In the router where the android is connected remember to create port forwards to the android ip.
In your machine with adb installed do:
adb connect public_ip:port
After being connected, you can do:
adb logcat
or
adb shell
Or any adb command you want to.

How can I make eclipse connect to Android emulator manually?

There are lots of times Eclipse can't connect to emulator that I turned on from AVD Manager, and just starts a new emulator by itself,( two emulators are the same ):((. How can I make eclipse find the emulator ?

some times restarting adb solves your problem
adb kill-server
adb start-server
for working easier in command line in windows, add the path of adb.exe to that Windows' path. For example add ";C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" to System Properties-> Advanced-> Environment Variables-> System Variables-> Path
One of the reasons of problems in device connection is a long USB cable or a two-piece cables like keyboard USB. try to connect your device to PC directly by a short cable.

I guess that you might suffer from the issue that the manually started emulator got disconnected somehow, shown with a message like
Error: emulator-5554 disconnected
in the Eclipse console view. There are several related questions and answers on stackoverflow like Why do I get a emulator-5554 disconnected message,
but for me none of those answers helped.
Whenever I see the error message for disconnection occur, I just shutdown that emulator and start it again. Normally that already "fixes" the problem, it just works on the next attempt (for me).

I was just experiencing this issue also. I agree with breceivemail, the ADB reconnected to the emulated device after reset, but there is a shortcut using Eclipse:
In the DDMS view => Devices window => View Menu (the down triangle in the header) => reset adb

You can choose the target device manually by changing the run configurations.
Run -> Run configurations -> choose your App -> Target tab -> select "Always promt to pick device"
If your device isn't available you will at least don't start a new Emulator.

If the emulator is still active, you can use adb to connect to it via tcp. In this way you can connect a disconnected emulator to your development system's loopback one port higher, just like if you are using emulator-5554, you can connect to it by using a higher port.
adb connect localhost:5555
There was been an issue with this technique, where the emulator control becomes inactive, and the developer cannot send GPS coordinates or SMSs or calls to emulator.
There is a one click method to do this
Open notepad
Type the below code
#echo off
adb connect localhost:5555
Save the file as your_file_name.BAT
Copy the file to Android SDK/platform_tools
Create a shortcut, give it a custom icon, use it anywhere you like

Open the DDMS view from Eclipse, and simply click on the emulator name you want connect to in 'Emulator' tab.
