Another issue with Genymobile/scrcpy: Display and control your Android device over ethernet cable

Last Updated on February 6, 2025 by pg@petergamma.org

who repeats every time the sequence:

  • adb tcpip 5555
  • remove usb cable
  • and then connect the Android ethernet adapter
  • then type: adb connect 192.168.1.101:5555
  • scrcpy

To type something onto your Android phone with your PC?

This solution is very uncomfortable, since it is not developed. An easier solution is this one to use an external SD card for our Android phone with a card reader plugged into the phone:

On the other hand, we eventually get used to it to type the above sequence. And to have only one version of Softmaker which can be controlled on the phone and from the PC makes the phone a great mobile writing machine with all the features.

But eventually we find another way to control your Android from a PC than scrpy:

which works better than scrpy as discussed here. Something which is great about the discussed Android phone ethernet adapter that it is stable and works for SD card, charging and ethernet.
