Issue
I am trying to use an emulator and when I launch it, it starts loading but its not getting conneccted in VSCode. How can I connect so that VSCode detects it?
When I start the adb-server, I get the following output
adb server version (40) doesn't match this client (39); killing...
ADB server didn't ACK
Full server startup log: /tmp/adb.1000.log
Server had pid: 31775

flutter devices logs:
No devices detected.
Run 'flutter emulators' to list and start any available device emulators.
Or, if you expected your device to be detected, please run "flutter doctor" to
diagnose potential issues, or visit https://flutter.dev/setup/ for troubleshooting
tips.
• Device emulator-5554 is offline.
Solution
The device does not have permissions. Run flutter doctor and flutter devices, if no devices appear to be connected (in this case, emulated) you need to kill the adb-server, open the emulator and then start the adb-server.
If the issue still persists after this, try flutter doctor --android licenses
And if it still continues, please post your flutter doctor & flutter devices output.
