I need to make an app for this device: http://minix.us/products/images/x9/NEO-X9.pdf And I set it up, connected to my wireless, added a display, mouse, keyboard, etc. and everything works fine. Now I am trying to connect to the device from my MAC machine. I tried this:

adb connect 192.168.1.36

But I always get back: unable to connect to 192.168.1.36:5555: Connection refused

I even tried adb kill-server before, but still doesn't work. How can I connect it correctly?

I fixed it by allowing debugging mode. More on how this is done here: ADB connection to an AndroidTV
