Instructions for connecting Termux's android-tools adb to the current device via Wireless debugging and fixing phantom process killing
Raw
1-termux-adb.md

Install android-tools if you haven't already:

pkg update ; pkg upgrade
pkg install android-tools


adb pair localhost:port

Where port is taken from the menu shown after clicking from Developer options > Wireless debugging > Pair device with pairing code. Use splitscreen to show the Wireless debugging setting below the Termux app when pairing.


After pairing successfully, run the following commands to either connect or disconnect:

adb connect localhost:port

adb disconnect

Where port is shown in the Wireless debugging menu as IP address & Port.


After you're done with adb, make sure to close the daemon:

adb kill-server

After Termux has connected via Wireless debugging, run the command below to fix phantom process killing. (Android 12L and above)

adb shell "settings put global settings_enable_monitor_phantom_procs false"

In Termux, all IP address can be set as 127.0.0.1. You can only focus on the port and pairing code information.
