Connecting Wear OS emulator with a physical android device

Question

I am trying to connect a wearable emulator with 4.4 Android phone following the documentation , however when i forward adb using the command adb -d forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601 nothing happens, and the screen gets stuck on this , clicking on "skip and finish setup" does nothing as well . i tried:

1. changing the USB port

2. restarting both devices (emulator and phone)

3. using adb forward tcp:4444 localabstract:/adb-hub; adb connect localhost:4444 adb forward tcp:4444 localabstract:/adb-hub; adb connect localhost:4444

4. making sure i am using the correct SDK file

Does anyone know what might be the problem?

Answer 1

1. You should turn on developer mode in your Wear OS emulator
2. The same in the physical device (developer mode I mean)
3. In your physical device, download Wear OS by Google in the Google Play market
4. Using "adb -d forward tcp:5601 tcp:5601"
5. To connect with your Wear OS
