Enable USB debugging on Android

Question

I am trying to enable USB debugging on Android, so I do not need to use an emulator.

I did what all messages across the Internet say: I went to settings -> applications -> Developer -> USB debugging

It still does not include a notification sign that USB Debugging is turned on, and Eclipse does not recognize it and uses a regular emulator.

Does anyone know what is wrong?

Answer 1

You did not indicate which device you are using or which operating system you are using, so this may be useful.

A few things to keep in mind:

1 Do not mount as a USB drive.

2 You also need to install drivers for your phone so that it can interact normally with Android Debug Bridge (ADB). After installing them, try the command "adb devices" and you will see an item in the list of devices.

Update based on your comment: you can download Samsung Kies, including drivers (as well as other things): http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/

Or you can find informal driver-only packages, such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956

Answer 2

I think you will need OEM OEM recorders.

Answer 3

My experience with Windows was that you might need to remove the USB drivers in the device manager. Then disconnect the device (a restart may be required). After connecting the device back, make sure that you are using the manufacturer’s drivers, if available.

Answer 4

you have installed the device driver ritual, then right-click on the name of your application-> run as-> run configurations-> target-> select manual-> apply.after, click on the debug button and it will ask you to select devices.

Answer 5

If everything else is checked, try using a different USB cable.

Answer 6

In Android version 4.2 and higher, the developer settings screen is hidden by default. To make it visible, go to Settings> About Phone and click Create Number Seven Times. Return to the previous screen to find the developer options below.

On some devices, you will be asked to accept the RSA key, which allows you to debug your computer. This ensures that other adb commands cannot be executed if you cannot unlock your device.

Detailed information can be found here: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html This is an overview of adb commands (which is used to send data to your device), and it starts with the steps of the phone in debug mode.

Answer 7

I want to add to Danation an answer with the following.

If you installed KIES and you tried the following instructions several times (for the SDK for Android), this worked for me:

As a precaution, disconnect the device and click "Cancel USB debugging authorization." Now go to kies and reinstall the device driver as shown in the image below. Connect the device.

For me it was a normal procedure, it usually works when installing kies, but I got a little stuck in it today and I hope that I can help others with my solution.
