chrome检查闪烁，远程调试

Question

I'm trying to use Chrome's support for remote debugging with my Android device. I've been successful doing this many times, even though it is a bit tricky to setup up.

(I need 'port forwarding' and 'virtual host mapping' so my device can access domain names on my local server.)

The problem is that (today) chrome://inspect shows the tabs on my device for only a second, then hides them, then shows them again, then hides them...

When Chrome hides all the tabs on my device, the following message appears:

Pending authentication: please accept debugging session on the device.

Bad Blink

Good Blink

I see no notification on my device that I can 'accept'.

Even stranger, if I am quick to click on my host, I actually seem to be able to able to use the dev tools for the device like in previous successful situations.

Why is chrome://inspect blinking and how can I fix it?

My setup

• Device: Android 5.0 Galaxy S4 for AT&T, with Developer options enabled.
• Device's wifi settings require Proxy, with info for Charles running on host.
• Device connected via USB.
• chrome://inspect has Port Forwarding enabled.
• Chrome: Version 44.0.2403.157 m.
• Android bridge performed by starting Android Studio (version 1.3.1).

Thanks to @SOreadytohelp for the helpful comment.

I borrowed this from the chromium bug report :

Downgrading Android SDK Platform-tools from revision 23 to revision 21 will solve the issue

Answer 2

Same behavior here: neither Galaxy S4 nor Galaxy S6 Edge with Lollipop were available on the chrome://inspect tab. I develop an Ionic/Cordova app and downgrade isn't an option. But if you download latest version of Chrome Canary the device is available to inspect and I can debug again.

You just have to upload your chrome for android, and it will work.

I also came across this problem, but as I updated my chrome for android, the problem got sorted out and now it is working fine.
