Wireless disconnection when removing USB (oculus go)

[elodesignco]

1. Connect the device to the same Wi-Fi as computer
2. Get device IP address: adb shell ip addr show wlan0
3. Enable adb over TCP/IP on device: adb tcpip 5555
4. Connect to device: adb connect DEVICE_IP:5555 (replace DEVICE_IP)
5. adb devices: shows two connections, one usb and one to the ip
6. Unplug device

At this point I'm expecting to be able to run;
7. Run scrcpy: scrcpy -s 192.168.1.185:5555

However, both devices are disconnected when pulling the usb cable out.
As an alternate permutation: If I leave the usb connected and run step #7, scrcpy loads and then if I pull the usb - it disconnects.

Is there a better method for getting wireless connectivity working?

However, both devices are disconnected when pulling the usb cable out.

I can't reproduce (with a Nexus 5, not an Oculus go). If I unplug the device, there is still the device connected over TCP.

Your device seems to restart/reconfigure adb when you unplug it.

I've been doing some more testing and after unplugging the USB, I can still use: adb connect DEVICE_IP:5555 and connect to the device. Can also ping the device also and get a response.

It appears to just disappear from the list of devices within ADB. I think it has something to do with MAC USB enumeration killing ADB, not the device itself.

I use this for my Oculus Go all the time, never have an issue. However if I connect to my Go via WiFi BEFORE disconnecting the USB, I ALWAYS get disconnected. I have to FIRST disconnect the USB connection, THEN I can connect to it over WiFi with ADB. Think you're just doing it wrong.
