To stop the <em>adb</em> server, I first execute the command <code>adb kill-server</code>, which generally stops a well behaved <em>adb</em> process. Then, using the <em>{pid}</em> returned by <code>ps ...</code>, I execute <code>kill {pid}</code>. I too have found this mechanism not entirely reliable, since occasionally some lingering <em>(adb)</em> processes seem to simply refuse to go away, even if sent a <code>kill -9 {pid}</code>.

The tether app worked yesterday, but fails to work today. I think it may be conflicting with adb process. Is there way to stop the adb process? I can't find it running in the activity monitor and don't know the terminal command. THANKS!! Prior to using the Android Tether app, I tried to use the adb terminal command with no success.
