Anybody could help me? Thanks:-)

does anyone know how to fix this issue? I'm having the same issue.

[Moonbloom]

I wasn't able to fix the issue by installing via Homebrew, so i ended up pulling the git master and compiling it locally, then copying the fb-adb executable to /usr/local/bin/ and using that. Worked perfectly fine.

The commands needed to compile it are in the README file.

I'm also running on 10.12.1.

Homebrew is still running 1.4.4 as the newest version, while the git master is using version 2.0.0. So there must have been some breaking changes somewhere that has been fixed in version 2.0.0.

I have the same error

configure: error: could not find Android cross-compiler for i686-pc-linux-android
configure: error: ../../stub-x86/configure failed for stub-x86

[CNG]

I had the same error on 10.12.2 (16C67), and then also got fb-adb installed by compiling it after jumping through some hoops that may or may not have been required if the Brew method worked. I needed to install the full Android Studio and Java SE Development Kit, and then I needed to run:

brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew install homebrew/dupes/make
brew install android-ndk
brew install python3
android update sdk --no-ui --filter 'platform-tools'

Several gigabytes of downloads later, fb-adb compiled.
