Adb server out of date. killikng.. ADB server didn't ACK

Development Getting Started & Setup

Hi guys,
Been trying to setup for an android project. I’ve followed the android setup guide but when trying to connect my phone and opening windows command to check if my phone is detected using the adb devices sommand, this pops up:

adb server is out of date. killing…
ADB server didn’t ACK

  • failed to start daemon *
    error: unknown host service

I’ve tried reinstalling the sdk from unreal, tried using different usd drivers for my phone (samsung galaxy kzoom / s4),
I’m quite stuck on what to do.

side note:
I’m using 4.11.3 because the codes that have been written so far was using 4.11.3. Kinda afraid that if I upgrade and use a different version, the codes might not work. I didn’t write the codes, my friend did and he’s been rahter busy lately, so if there was an error there I wouldn’t know how to fix it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Hello HaChicko,

Issues with the ADB server itself are not related to UE4, although we do include the software with the engine. I would suggest searching for this error in a general search engine as there seem to be a few fixes for this error on external sites.

Turns out the android sdk in the unreal 4.11 folder was Androidworks (not sure if theres a difference with Codeworks but yea), so manually downloaded the Codeworks installer from nvidia and that fixed it

Cheers
