Public bug reported: SDK Platform tools version 37.0 has support for the new feature ADB Wi-Fi 2.0, that allows to connect, debug, and develop Android apps over Wi-Fi better than before. Maybe a backport to Resolute could be nice, so the Android developers can use this new feature imediately. References: https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools (release notes) https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2026/09/wireless-debugging-adb-wifi-2.html (official announcement) I think we could think about package as a snap, like dotnet, and others, so the developers always will have a fresh version.
Another thing that is useful to mention is that the Google documentation points to this package: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/device#wireless:~:text=apt%2Dget%20install%20android%2Dsdk%2Dplatform%2Dtools%2Dcommon ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 26.10 Package: android-sdk-build-tools-common (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 7.2.0-5.5-generic 7.2.0 Uname: Linux 7.2.0-5-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: zfs ApportVersion: 2.36.0-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Sep 10 15:22:08 2026 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-11-26 (1749 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 21.10 "Impish Indri" - Release amd64 (20211012) SourcePackage: android-sdk-meta UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to stonking on 2026-09-02 (8 days ago) ** Affects: android-sdk-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug stonking wayland-session ** Description changed: SDK Platform tools version 37.0 has support for the new feature ADB Wi-Fi 2.0, that allows to connect, debug, and develop Android apps over Wi-Fi better than before.
