Summary: The problem seems to be exclusive to Android emulators. Bringing the emulator ON from a warm state brings the app from is previous state before shutting down. At this point there may have been a Flipper connection. Flipper tries to connect and does so successfully replacing the previously, now dead connection. The problem is that replacing that connection triggers the reconnect cycle as Flipper thinks the connection is dead and hence the reconnect loop initiates.

Flipper
Flipper (formerly Sonar) is a platform for debugging mobile apps on iOS and Android and, recently, even JS apps in your browser or in Node.js. Visualize, inspect, and control your apps from a simple desktop interface. Use Flipper as is or extend it using the plugin API.
Table of Contents
Mobile development
Flipper aims to be your number one companion for mobile app development on iOS and Android. Therefore, we provide a bunch of useful tools, including a log viewer, interactive layout inspector, and network inspector.
Extending Flipper
Flipper is built as a platform. In addition to using the tools already included, you can create your own plugins to visualize and debug data from your mobile apps. Flipper takes care of sending data back and forth, calling functions, and listening for events on the mobile app.
Contributing to Flipper
Both Flipper's desktop app, native mobile SDKs, JS SDKs are open-source and MIT licensed. This enables you to see and understand how we are building plugins, and of course, join the community and help to improve Flipper. We are excited to see what you will build on this platform.

Getting started
Please refer to our
Getting Started guide to set
up Flipper.
Or, (still experimental) run npx flipper-server for a browser based version of Flipper.
Requirements
- node >= 8
- yarn >= 1.5
- iOS developer tools (for developing iOS plugins)
- Android SDK and adb
Building from Source
Desktop
Running from source
git clone https://github.com/facebook/flipper.git
cd flipper/desktop
yarn
yarn start
NOTE: If you're on Windows, you need to use Yarn 1.5.1 until this issue is resolved.
Building standalone application
Provide either --mac, --win, --linux or any combination of them to
yarn build to build a release zip file for the given platform(s). E.g.
yarn build --mac --version $buildNumber
You can find the resulting artifact in the dist/ folder.
iOS SDK + Sample App
cd iOS/Sample
rm -f Podfile.lock
pod install --repo-update
open Sample.xcworkspace
<Run app from xcode>
You can omit --repo-update to speed up the installation, but watch out as you
may be building against outdated dependencies.
Android SDK + Sample app
Start up an android emulator and run the following in the project root:
./gradlew :sample:installDebug
React Native SDK + Sample app
cd react-native/ReactNativeFlipperExample
yarn
yarn android
Note that the first 2 steps need to be done only once.
Alternatively, the app can be started on iOS by running yarn ios.
If this is the first time running, you will also need to run
pod install --repo-update from the
react-native/ReactNativeFlipperExample/ios folder.
JS SDK + Sample React app
cd js/react-flipper-example
yarn
yarn start
Troubleshooting
Older yarn versions might show an error / hang with the message 'Waiting for the
other yarn instance to finish'. If that happens, run the command yarn first
separately in the directory react-native/react-native-flipper.
