  • Can you see your device listed after running adb devices command?

  • It's chicken or the egg situation. USB Debugging enables you to use Android Debugging Bridge (adb). And you want to activate USB Debugging using adb.

If the usb debugging is off. Your device won't appear in adb devices list. So you cannot turn it on any other way than opening the developer options and manually enabling it.

YES you can switch on USB debugging through ADB provided you bootlaoder is unlocked. Just have to pull few files ---> edit them ---> Push them back. It is explained on Github: https://gist.github.com/pantasio/3d0eb4bb03a1e696aae8696f60730859#file-enable-usb-debug-adb

  • Since Android 9 /data/property/persist.sys.usb.config no more exists. Now there's only one file: /data/property/persistent_properties. And that too isn't plain text but includes arbitrary characters. Even after editing that, adb authentication won't work without extra steps.
