[JsonDo]

Hello @jramalho ,
For me to be able to test on physical Android devices, I have to change some adb settings first.

With only one device connected through USB, I usually do the following:

1. adb -d reverse tcp:8099 tcp:8099
2. detox run-server
3. detox test -c yourConfigHere

In your configuration file, instead of giving detox the emulator name, give it its adb serial number, obtained by running adb -d devices. You would also need to specify, again in the config file, that you would like to use the server you manually started, as shown here.
