ADB Port on Bluestacks 5

[TiemN]

Bluestacks 5 no longer defaults the ADB port to 5555 and randomize it on startup. Everytime I start up bluestacks I have to edit the code to change all instance of the port to the new one. Is it possible to have the script detect what port that Bluestacks is running? If not how about a way to specify the port at the command line when running the script?

I use Bluestacks X. The ADB port defaults to 5555 after restart of the program.

That's odd, cause I tried both 5 and X and it looks like this for me, and it changes on reboot of Bluestacks.

Have you tried this?

Here's the link to the thread but basically seems like you can force a port to bluestacks. https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueStacks/comments/qzlhg9/disabling_randomized_adb_port_on_bluestacks_5/

Hope it helps!

I saw that thread, that file actually doesn't allow you to force the port it only tells you what the current port is.

I have the same problem... Editing the file doesnt help... still randomized

Hey guys, you can see my gist to detect adb port and set proxy: https://gist.github.com/ETOgaosion/e9c2752124b1795dbe2aa9430c2a7a40
