I have recently shifted to android studio. I would like to know how I can test my apps in Bluestacks app player. I had already had the bluestacks connected and working with eclipse using adb connect localhost:5555 but it doesn't seem to work with android studio. Didn't find any help anywhere. If anyone has done this, please help.
Steps to connect Blue Stack with Android Studio
- Close Android Studio.
- Go to adb.exe location (default location:
%LocalAppData%\Android\sdk\platform-tools) - Run
adb connect localhost:5555from this location. - Start Android Studio and you will get Blue Stack as emulator when you run your app.
In my case I didn't needed start adb.exe. I only started the BlueStacks before android studio.
After that when I press "Run" in android studio, bluestacks is detected as a new emulator.
Regards.
I Solved it. I just had to add the path of android studio's platform-tools after removing my earlier eclipse's path. I don't know, maybe some conflict in the command.
world !
No need to do execute batch command. With the current version, just run BLUESTACKS before ANDROID STUDIO
For those people with (cannot connect to localhost:5555: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. (10061) :
Blustacks is listening at IPv4-Localhost-TCP-5555 (not IPv6). Most of the time Windows has IPv6 enabled by default and Localhost is solving ::1:
If the client (ADB) tries to connect a server using localhost and IPv6 is enabled on the main network adapter, ADB will not connect to the server.
So, you have two options :
1- Change your ADB client TCP connection string to localhost IPV4 : adb connect 127.0.0.1
OR :
2-Disable IPV6 protocol from the main network adapter.
