Unity Remote 5 for Android not working with Unity 2019.1.0f2 Personal, worked fine under 2018 build

I’ve what feels like everything in the world to try to get Unity Remote to work and it is just not happening. I wasn’t having any issues until I got a new computer, installed the latest version of Unity. It still works just fine on my old computer with the older version of Unity, so I’m confident the device itself is not the problem.

I’m able to build the APK to the device and run it just fine, but Unity Remote does not show the game view and touching the screen provides no response in the game when I click Play in the editor.

Yes I’ve selected “Any Android Device”

Yes I tried manually downloading the SDK and selecting the folder

Yes adb sees my device

Yes I’ve tried killing and restarting the adb server…

Yes I’ve tried using the Android SDK Manager to download Google USB drivers and manually setting the driver for my device to those in Windows settings.

Yes I’ve tried restarting Unity, device, computer, tried all different combinations of opening Unity or opening Remote first, etc etc etc.

I’m open to anything else at this point, it’s been super frustrating that something that just worked in prior versions of Unity now just doesn’t work :frowning: Please anyone, do you have any ideas?

Me too I’ve done everything, its so frustrating

Same problem here. I use my ipad instead for unity remote and it works but cant use it for any of my android devices. So annoying.
