Robust ADB Connection Manager for Legacy Android Devices

Posted by ProductIndie Admin1/16/2026

Target User

Developers, hobbyists, and system integrators working with older Android devices (specifically Android 6.0.1) who rely on ADB over TCP/IP for automation and control.

The Problem

ADB over TCP/IP connections to Android 6 devices frequently drop, requiring full device restarts to re-establish, even with keep-alive attempts, hindering reliable automation.

The Solution

A specialized software utility or library that provides a more stable and persistent ADB over TCP/IP connection. It would implement advanced keep-alive mechanisms, intelligent auto-reconnection logic, and potentially device-specific workarounds for Android 6 to prevent connection drops.

Monetization Strategy

One-time software license fee, or a subscription for a managed service if deployed in a device farm context.
