Unfortunately there is no mobile device support for Linux at the moment. We can't say when we will release it, but we are planning to do so.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Tried using same network and different networks. (pc and phone on same wifi network, pc on cable or wifi, and phone on 4G.)
Please bear in mind that I can connect from my home to this ubuntu computer, and can connect from ubuntu to my home as well, and can connect on my home to my phone as well(over wifi on same network or 4g).
More info:
Using my Wifi and 4G:
Connecting through "HOST" app on phone(replaced possible private info with XXXXXXXXX):
When the connection ended suddenly (went from "Connection Accepted" to "Ready to Connect"):
Logs on my phone(also stripped of possibly identifying info):
I can provide more logs/detailed info if needed.
Well the round about solution is using android emulator in ubuntu
with team-viewer installed in it. And voila there you go you can solve your
problem till team-viewer gets a solution to it.

Any suggestions for an android emulator?
I have the same issue on the 18.04. I did notice that if I called up the properties dialogue for the phone it displays a password box which appears to be able to accept input. The Windows version of teamviewer connects without any password for the phone so maybe the linux version is configured differently with respect to secuity?
Linux 18.04 ubuntu to android-8 still not working. Same problem as described in original post.
connects, get spinner on android and "connecting" on Linux, then ready to connect on android with failure.
I was going with teamviewer because vnc servers/clients on android/ubuntu require root access on android which is a pain even with the great work by the xdadev folks.
Same problem here, can connect to Android from Ubuntu TV 14.2.8352
Android sees incoming connections but then it never connects.
As a corporate customer we also have this issue. I can't see an obvious way of opening a support case with this corporate account, so I can escalate this issue. Is this the only support mechanism with TeamViewer (this forum)?
I tried for an hour trying to resolve this issue on my Ubuntu 16.04 box. I thought it was a Sumsung Add-on problem, S10
I finally switched to an old Win7 box and it worked, unfortunately that solution does not work for me.

Has Teamviewer made a decision not to support Linux?
I'm suffering from the same issue
Fedora release 30 (Thirty)

Since you say you have no Mobile device support on Linux at the moment do you still need log files ? As you seem to be aware this doesn't work and have already reproduced this.
Also why does this just fail silently, shouldn't it say you can't connect your Linux box to Andorid when you try? Also shouldn't any client connection to any other client, seems pretty shoddy that this isn't the case!
Hi @simpz ,
thanks for your post.
No, we do not need the log files anymore. I made a mistake, sorry.
That is why JuanTP´s answer is marked as Solution.
As soon as we release this feature, we will inform you.
Best,
Alena

Is there still no solution for linux to use the remote mobile supprt? having this same problem right now... Most of our developers (at least our android developers) use linux (ubuntu), so quit a missing link for us.
What are we paying for?
There is no Linux support for Android devices.
There is no working QuickSupport for Linux anymore.
Connecting to old Windows client versions from Linux fails (black screen)
A lot of non working stuff for a subscription product like this :(
