FAQ

The [FAQ] is available in the following languages:

tips

  1. keep adding tips
  2. scrcpy command line flags are case sensitive !
  3. useful flags for beginners. ( the flags list is too long )
    --max-fps=30 --no-audio --no-video --keep-active -S -w --start-app=com.android.vending -M -K --otg
    lookup each in the docs. or scrcpy -h
  4. using the scrcpy as a virtual display ( launch apps like they are native to windows/linux )
    - first unlock your device ( this wont work if your phone is on lockscreen )
    - run start "" scrcpy --new-display --keep-active --flex-display --start-app=com.android.vending
    - you can do --new-display=1024x768/160
    - workaround for white blank screen : install the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.pnhdroid.appsearch&hl=en , and run adb shell am start -n net.pnhdroid.appsearch/.search.SearchActivity --display 1
  5. using scrcpy over wifi/hotspot ( very useful for android tv as well )
    1. activate adb over tcp/ip
    2. $ adb tcpip 5555 skip this for android 7/8 tvs (enabled by default).
    3. get your ip address $ adb shell ip route. example output: "blah blah blah ... src 10.144.13.148". unplug phone. ( hotspot users. on windows run ipconfig. your phone ip is the default gateway ipv4. on linux its ifconifg )
    4. connect adb wirelessly $ adb connect <your_android_ip>:5555
    5. run $ scrcpy
    6. if you know your ip and adb over tcp/ip is active, run in one command: $ scrcpy --tcpip=<your_android_ip>:5555
  6. you can run various apps on android tv , download the correct apk. use adb --install -g c:\users\myewaste\downloads\anyapp.apk , and mouse click and keyboard works in it. install firefox on tv. run linux inside your tv. go crazy.
