无法在Mac上的Genymotion模拟器上运行telnet命令

Question

I am running Genymotion 2.3.1 on Mac OS X Yosemite. When I was running Genymotion on Win 7, I could telnet to the emulator and run commands like "geo fix" to set a location. However, on Yosemite, when I telnet to the emulator and run a command, I do not get an OK response, and nothing happens. This is an example:

$ adb devices
List of devices attached
192.168.56.101:5555 device

$ telnet 192.168.56.101 5555
Trying 192.168.56.101...
Connected to 192.168.56.101.
Escape character is '^]'.
geo fix 34 -118
sms send 1234 test
Connection closed by foreign host.
$

After running the geo fix command, I checked on the emulator, and the GPS location was not changed. The sms send command caused the telnet session to close. Any ideas?

Telnet is not supported on Genymotion.

To access the Genymotion Shell you need to open the Genyshell app or run it in command line. It will open a terminal where you will be able to do all the commands you used to do.

The commands are different than telnet, so type help to discover all the features you can access after opening this shell.
