Is it possible to USB tether an android device using adb through the terminal?

Question

I\'m setting up some tests and it will require a decent number of phones to be usb tethered and configured. I\'ve been successful in configuring them the way I want to once

Answer 1

For Fairphone 2 with Fairphone Open OS (the "Android without Google" version, which is not installed by default) you need to:

• Enable Developer mode (may be actived by default)
• Search setting for "root" and enable root access for ADB
• Enter bash command in quotes and use service code 31:
  • Enable: adb shell su -c "service call connectivity 31 i32 1"
  • Disable: adb shell su -c "service call connectivity 31 i32 0"
