the adb version on your system is different from the adb version on the android sdk platform-tools link it works for me

1 check sys adb version

# adb version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.39

2 check sdk adb version

# cd /Users/wan-mac/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools
# ./adb version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.32

3 copy

# sudo cp /Users/wan-mac/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools/adb /usr/local/bin

that’s all

I had the same issue and just did

ps -ef | grep 5037
505 11809     1   0  4:44PM ??         0:07.17 adb -P 5037 fork-server server --reply-fd 4

Got another adb process already running but not sure why it was started

Just did a kill -9 11809 and started adb server and its working fine now

I had solved that. Just set the host 127.0.0.1 localhost, then it runs ok. Actually, I also close my proxy, the network maybe a case.

I’m using Genymotion’s adb, and needed to add it to my PATH environment variable. eg. in Mac/Linux’s ~/.bash_profile:

export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Genymotion.app/Contents/MacOS/tools

Then confirm it’s available with:

source ~/.bash_profile
which adb

Just check whether your path is correct set or not

i had solved this problem; when i check my system path , i found two android sdk paths; delete one of them, then it works well

Same issue windows 7 without the Android SDK installed; using the genymotion adb.

All i did to fix was add the ‘C:\Program Files\Genymobile\Genymotion\tools’ to the system path… Presto…

Also, if there is anyone still having this problem, take a look at the response of this guy https://stackoverflow.com/a/45456154/6115334 for me that solved the problem. I had an adb old version that was being found first in my path variable, It was not the version I was expecting to be executed, this old version is the one the always was having the port taken.
