/bin/sh: 1: adb: not found
Starting the app (adb shell am start -n com.myapp/.MainActivity...
As you seen it’s return /bin/sh: 1: adb: not found two time but when I run adb devices it’s return below output:
adb devices
List of devices attached
192.168.56.101:5555 device
192.168.56.101:5555 is my Genymotion device I also test with my Nexus 7 but again noting run on device.
I think it’s a bug because I have adb but it’s return /bin/sh: 1: adb: not found.

you need export the path of “platform-tools” inside android sdk folder
run this command with your platform-tools location and retry again
export PATH="/Users/yourUser/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools":$PATHI had the same problem I solved, in your project directory… sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install adb
then
react-native run-android
You need to install adb.
Run command below to install. brew cask install android-platform-tools
If you don’t have brew installed, use this command to download that: ruby -e “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)”
After installing ‘adb’ things working fine for me.
@koraniar It has to be something else, 200 years ago I have exported adb and other platform tools and still not working… My guess react-native is looking for adb somewhere else and in that case ignoring the ENVIRONMENT vars.
I was right… In a Linux system, react-native scripts looks for adb at /usr/local/bin/, It ignores the Environment variables. what I did was create a symlink in /us/local/bin/
That’s it
I added
export PATH=$PATH:"/Users/<your username here>/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools"to my.bash_profile.installing worked for me,
brew cask install android-platform-toolsJust also ran into the same issue setting, following resolved it for me: Set ANDROID_HOME to your sdk location. (C:\users{username}\AppData\Local\Android\sdk per default)
Add the following to your PATH: %ANDROID_HOME%/tools %ANDROID_HOME%/platform-tools
Only platform-tools do not suffice. 😉
