Your agent works on the emulator. Make it work on a real Android phone.
Copy-paste MCP configs, fixes for the errors everyone hits, and 25 eval tasks with pass/fail checks. Works with the phone on your desk or one in a rack.
- 12 questions nobody asks until their agent fails on a real phone, each with a short, sourced answer
- Configs for mobile-mcp, Android-MCP, Appium MCP and Mobilerun (formerly DroidRun) over adb connect, pinned to one device
- Fixes for the 10 errors builders actually hit, from "No active driver session" to screenshots that blow the model's image limit
- A pre-run health check script that keeps a phone awake, authorised and unchanged overnight
- A 25-task eval suite on stock Google apps, with ADB-checkable pass/fail criteria and a scoring sheet

About the guide
Do I need a PhoneFleet phone to use the kit?
No. Everything in it works with an Android phone on your desk over USB or Wi-Fi. The last section covers what to look for if you outgrow that.
Are the configs current?
Every command, flag, package name and config was checked against the project's own README, docs or source on 6 October 2026, and the sources are listed in the kit.
Is it really free?
Yes. Enter your email and the PDF downloads straight away. We may email you occasional updates about PhoneFleet, and you can unsubscribe anytime.
What format is it?
A PDF of about 19 pages that reads well on a laptop or phone. No sign-up beyond your email.
