I'm developing on a Linux system with Android Studio 3.1.3 and connected my device to adb via Wi-Fi:

ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ !622 adb usb ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ !623 adb devices List of devices attached FA7BJ1A01528 device

ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ !624 adb tcpip 5555 restarting in TCP mode port: 5555 ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ !625 adb connect 192.168.42.4 connected to 192.168.42.4:5555 ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ adb devices List of devices attached FA7BJ1A01528 device 192.168.42.4:5555 device

Now I remove the USB cable and check the connected devices:

ruomini@ruomini-XPS-13-9370:~$ adb devices List of devices attached

First of all, why am I seeing two devices attached while the cable is attached? Second, why is the phone not appearing in the list after I pull the USB cable? The phone is running Android 8.1.0.

I think you are missunderstanding concepts. Command *adb devices* will list only devices avaible for debugging eg. emulators or devices connected via usb, and not devices connected to Wifi – Facundo Larrosa Jul 01 '18 at 03:36
FractalBob..Do you got the solution?. If not remove the "duplicate question" so that someone can answer the question. – Chandrakanth Jul 02 '18 at 10:13
