I am trying to use adb on Ubuntu 18.04, but when I use any command, other than "adb version" it drops to the next line and does nothing. I have tried with and without sodo. 

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.39
Version 1:8.1.0+r23-5~18.04
Installed as /usr/lib/android-sdk/platform-tools/adb

Has anyone had this issue?

  • Have you done this: https://askubuntu.com/a/863624/243321 – Organic Marble Nov 23 '19 at 15:22
  • It's not that Linux doesn't see the device. Udev works as it should and connects the Android. ADB does not work, at all. Any command, except "version" does nothing, with the device plugged or unplugged. For instance, `adb start-server` or `adb get-state` just drops to a blank line and never completes. – talkinggoat Nov 23 '19 at 15:35

Found it. Apparently Traccar server was still installed on this dev system and uses the same port ADB uses. Removing Traccar fixed the issue.

Description of the issue is found in detail, here: ADB hangs when trying to start or stop server
