How to restart ADB manually from Android Studio

open cmd and type the following command

netstat -aon|findstr 5037

and press enter.

you will get a reply like this :

  TCP    127.0.0.1:5037         0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3372
  TCP    127.0.0.1:5037         127.0.0.1:50126        TIME_WAIT       0
  TCP    127.0.0.1:5037         127.0.0.1:50127        TIME_WAIT       0
  TCP    127.0.0.1:50127        127.0.0.1:5037         TIME_WAIT       0

this shows the pid which is occupying the adb. in this 3372 is the value. it will not be same for anyone. so you need to do this every time you face this problem.

now type this :

taskkill /pid 3372(the pid you get in the previous step) /f

Voila! now adb runs perfectly.

open command prompt -> cd to your sdk\platform-tools type below command:

adb kill-server && adb start-server

Open Command prompt and go to

android sdk>platform-tools>

adb kill-server

press enter

and again

adb start-server

press enter
