Running adb shell has no response on Git Bash

Question

Git Bash version is "Git-2.16.2-32-bit".

After installing the Git Bash, and set up the env PATH. adb.exe has no response when I execute "adb shell".

I can do "adb devices" or "adb push", but adb shell has no response

Why adb shell has no response on Git Bash?

Thank you.

Answer 1

This is an old question, but it's worth pointing out that you are receiving a response while running adb shell, but it's just that the terminal prompt is not visible. You'd be able to issue commands and view the responses just fine, as shown below.

Answer 2

I only used adb.exe in a CMD session, not a bash session.

As detailed here, git bash provides mintty, with a better POSIX compatibility. That does not work with some Windows programs.

If you use a simplified PATH, you still can access most Linux commands directly from a CMD session (without needing the bash)

Answer 3

you can try : winpty adb shell.Please refer below's picture : image

Answer 4

Just adding to the knowledge base. Git bash on my windows 10 will work doing an adb shell into my oculus quest 2, but there is no prompt or echo of what you time later. Otoh, vs code says hollywood/ and echoes what you type. Haven't tried winpty yet. Iirc, windows bash works also.
