WSL2 Cannot List Android Devices

問題描述

這個問題的前題是Windows CMD以及WSL2都有正確安裝adb，但前者可以正常list出連接的device，後者卻為空

How to Solve

這是參考StackOverflow - ADB device list empty using WSL2的說明，具體原理就是我們直接把Windows安裝adb的path，soft link給WSL2的path就可以了

  1. 先找出Windows安裝adb的path 自行尋找
  2. 找出WSL2中adb的path 通常是/usr/bin/adb 
    1
    2
    		 
     $ ll /usr/bin/adb
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 45 Aug 14 12:07 /usr/bin/adb -> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 Jan 23  2022 /usr/bin/adb_bk -> ../lib/android-sdk/platform-tools/adb
  3. 備份原本的soft link 
    1
    		 
     $ sudo mv /usr/bin/adb /usr/bin/adb_bk
  4. 取代softlink 
    1
    		 
     $ sudo ln -sf /mnt/<folder path to adb>/adb.exe /usr/bin/adb
  5. 測試 ```bash $ adb devices
    • daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
    • daemon started successfully List of devices attached RFCW81CY9AD device ```
