@nprofile1q... adb reverse basically allows your device to access a port on your computer through usb as if it was local host, it basically connects two ports on your computer and device

so like adb reverse tcp:5800 tcp:5800

connects ports 5800 on your pc and 5800 on your phone, so if you connect to 127.0.0.1:5800 on your phone it will connect to the server on your desktop


forward does this in reverse and makes your desktop access your phone's port
