## Description

CHECK SUPPORT SECTION FOR MANUAL PAIRING TUTORIAL  
  
How does it work?  
  
LADB bundles an ADB server within the app libraries. Normally, this server cannot connect to the local device because it requires an active USB connection. However, Android's Wireless ADB Debugging feature allows the server and the client to speak to each other locally.  
  
Initial Setup  
  
Use split-screen more or a pop-out window with LADB and Settings at the same time. This is because Android will invalidate the pairing information if the dialog gets dismissed. Add a Wireless Debugging connection, and copy the pairing code and port into LADB. Keep both windows open until the Settings dialog dismisses itself.  
  
Issues  
  
LADB is sadly incompatible with Shizuku at the current moment. That means that if you have Shiuzuku installed, LADB will usually fail to connect properly. You must uninstall it and reboot to use LADB.  
  
Troubleshooting  
  
Most errors can be fixed by clearing the app data for LADB, removing all Wireless Debugging connections from Settings, and rebooting.  
  
License  
  
We're using a slightly modified license based on GPLv3 with the request to please not publish unofficial (user) LADB builds to the Google Play Store.  
  
Support  
  
MANUAL PAIRING:  
Sometimes, LADB's Assisted Pairing mode can be finicky with newer versions of Android. This is because the device does not recognize that there is an available device to connect to. Sometimes, a simple app restart fixes the issue.  
  
This tutorial demonstrates how you can skip the Assisted Pairing mode and reliably pair the device yourself.
