How to connect to genymotion emulator?

See original GitHub issue

I got the name of emulator by ‘genyshell -c “device list”’.

F:\app\testApp>genyshell -c "devices list"
Logging activities to file: C:/Users/henryguo/AppData/Local/Genymobile/genymotio
n-shell.log
Connection mode: local host
Welcome to Genymotion Shell

Genymotion virtual device selected: galaxys4

Available devices:

 Id | Select |    Status     |   Type   |   IP Address    |      Name
----+--------+---------------+----------+-----------------+---------------
  0 |        |           Off |  virtual |         0.0.0.0 | Custom Phone - 4.4.4
 - API 19 - 768x1280
  1 |    *   |            On |  virtual |  192.168.56.102 | galaxys4
  2 |        |           Off |  virtual |         0.0.0.0 | Samsung Galaxy S4 -
4.4.4 - API 19 - 1080x1920

Then I try to connect the emulator by ‘tns emulate android --geny “galaxys4”’. But I got a error message. Anything wrong ?

you have to configure your Sdk path on the tab ADB of the Genymotion configuration

Hi @Nathanaela,

The mismatch in adb version happens because Genymotion comes with their embedded adb and adb versions are incompatible. The fix is to install the latest Android SDK and use its adb first. I am sorry for the inconvenience caused!
