or
enable launcherhijack & tvsettingsonfire

Something like this app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.sisik.hackendebug

It's works as expected,

why there is no ADB or fastboot packages available ?

@xeffyr answer's: Because of unsuitable build system. ADB/fastboot are meant to be built as part of Android OS source tree.

You are always welcome to write makefile for them and submit a pull request to termux-packages ;)

I have been using @rendiix's pre-compiled adb binaries to great success. There's also an alternative from @MasterDevX.

Links to both:

• https://github.com/rendiix/termux-adb-fastboot
• https://github.com/MasterDevX/Termux-ADB

Hopefully, Termux will provide an adb package when possible.

The above mentioned binaries are older versions and do not support wireless adb and pin pairing. Hopefully rendiix or osmosis will recompile the new version 1.0.41. The termux developers are obviously not interested (this request is open more than 18 months...).

Thanks to osm0sis and surge 1223 we now have a solution to that problem.
So, download adb.bin somewhere on your phone from here https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/adb-ndk/tree/master/bin
Then use fx file explorer - connect to - left menu, termux, to authorize fx to see part of termux filesystem and transfer adb.bin there. Do not try to do it from termux itself: you'll be greeted with an error later on, because of the enforced no execution policy on Android 11 (good for virus protection, bad for power users, see here termux/termux-app#1072 ).
As next step you run termux and
chmod +x adb.bin
just to be sure.
Now you can
./adb.bin
and read the help how to pair and then connect. Remember there are different ports for pairing and connecting.

Now is available as part of android-tools package.
