ADB Scrcpy Connector

This script connects an Android device via ADB over USB and then switches to a wireless connection. It then starts Scrcpy in fullscreen mode.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• ADB (Android Debug Bridge)
• Scrcpy

Installation

macOS

1. Install Homebrew (if not already installed):

   /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
   

2. Install ADB and Scrcpy:

    brew install android-platform-tools scrcpy
   

Windows

Download and Install ADB:

Go to Google's SDK Platform Tools and download the ZIP file. Extract the ZIP file to a directory (e.g., C:\platform-tools). Download and Install Scrcpy:

Go to Genymobile Scrcpy releases and download the latest release. Extract the ZIP file to a directory (e.g., C:\scrcpy).

Usage

Ensure your Android device has USB debugging enabled.

Go to Settings -> About phone -> Tap Build number seven times to unlock developer mode. Go to Settings -> Developer options -> Enable USB debugging. Connect your device via USB.

Update the adb_path in the script according to your OS:

• For macOS: /opt/homebrew/bin/adb
• For Windows: C:\path\to\adb.exe (e.g., C:\platform-tools\adb.exe) Enter the IP address of your Android device when prompted.

Script Description

1. Set ADB to listen over TCP/IP on port 5555:

subprocess.run([adb_path, "tcpip", "5555"], check=True)

2. Connect to the device via USB to enable USB debugging:

connect_to_device_wired(adb_path)

3. Wait for a few seconds to ensure USB debugging is enabled:

time.sleep(5)

4. Connect wirelessly using the provided IP address:

connect_to_device_wireless(device_ip, adb_path)

5. Start Scrcpy in fullscreen mode:

start_scrcpy_fullscreen()
