Setting Up Unity To Remote With A Nexus 4: A Step By Step Guide

As much for my own future reference as the sanity of others, I have collated here all the necessary steps to get the Unity Remote working on the Nexus 4. It’s an otherwise simple process that’s beleaguered by a series of ill-explained hoops too jump through, which trawling the internet for the past hour or so finally has revealed to me. Perhaps most sites simply assume a prior knowledge of Android development. Well, I have none, and I’m not going to assume any in the steps below either.

This guide is for PC users and specific to my experience with Windows Vista and the Nexus 4. I expect the process would be virtually identical on other Android devices, though you may need a different driver. I do not own a Mac and have no idea how to go about setting this up on one, so don't ask :)
