Usually when we get “adb server not ACK ” error, what we do is
- Goto -> Task Manager -> End process of adb.exe
- Restart Eclipse
or else otherwise
- use adb kill-server and adb start-server commands on adb shell
- Restart Eclipse
But this error is bit strange. 🙂
Issue: I started getting following error after updating Android SDK tools and ADT plugin.
adb server is out of date. killing…
ADB server didn’t ACK
* failed to start daemon *
Reason: I am using Genymotion virtual device for testing and it uses an older version with its default settings.
Solution:
- Start Genymotion -> Goto Settings
- Goto –> ADB at menu
- Select “Use custom Android SDK tools”
- Give path to latest sdk tools
Cheers! 🙂
