如何将在模拟器中运行的Android Wear连接到真实的Android设备（2016）

Question

I know there are some questions on this topic, but most answers are from 2014 and not applicable anymore :(

How do I connect Android Wear running in the Emulator to an Android 6.0 device hanging via USB on the same Machine, with ADB on, on both Instances. I can see both devices if I do adb devices

All the tutorials and answers (like this or this ) describe basically to do

adb -d forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601

or

adb -s emulator-555X forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601

and to start the pairing with the Emulator from a slightly hidden option in the Android Wear App - However, I can't find this option in 2016's Android Wear App anymore.

I'm screwing around with this for two hours, can someone please help? Thanks!

Answer 1

You have the command-line option right:

adb -d forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601

Then in the Android Wear app on your phone, go to Pair with a new watch (under the device dropdown at the upper-left of the main activity); on the Pair with your watch screen, you'll find Pair with emulator on the overflow (3 dots) menu.

UPDATE MARCH 2019

The phone app is now called Wear OS, of course, but the steps are much the same. During the Add a Watch process (including during initial setup), Pair with emulator should be in the ⋮ overflow menu on the Connect your Watch screen.

The ADB command has never changed, and is documented here .
