Eclipse - Target “unknown” in Android device chooserr - android

I am using Samsung GT-S6802. When I try to select it in the 'Android device chooser', Eclipse recognizes the phone but not the target. It says target "unknown". Because of this problem, I can't choose the phone as the Android device.
How can I get Eclipse to recognize the target?

This error can have multiple reasons. Try restarting adb with this shell command:
adb kill-server && adb devices
This restarts the adb server and outputs a list of detected devices.
If the target is still known restart the debuggin on the device. If that still not help reboot the device.

Android Studio: USB device not recognized as Android device

I am trying to test an application on my Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S8), but I cannot see it in the available devices menu in Android Studio. I can see it as a USB device is not recognized as an Android device.
This seems strange, considering that I have enabled developer mode on my phone. Furthermore, when I check to see that the driver for the device updated to the latest version, it shows that it is updated correctly.
If you are sure you did everything right, but you are still facing this problem, try to run this command in cmd:
adb kill-server
After that reconnect your phone and run:
adb start-server
And check if your phone is in devices lists by run:
adb devices
(In some cases you should restart the Android studio)

How to run an android device on an android studios

I am currently trying to figure out why my mobile device will not show up in android studios.I have installed the google usb drivers for android studios, and enabled usb debugging. I just have no idea why I can't see the device in android studios.
Make sure to install the device driver. Go to the Device Manager and check it.
'cd' to your sdk platform-tools folder
Check if adb finds your device
./adb devices
If you do not see your device, restart adb :
./adb kill-server
./adb start-server
then re-run ./adb devices and see if it finds your device. Example :
List of devices attached

Ecilpse won't recognize my device after upgrading to Kitkat (4.4.2)

I just upgraded my Android device to 4.4.2 and now Eclipse will not be able to choose a running Android device when I want to run my project. The Android Device Chooser shows my device up with a serial number as "????????????" and Target as "unknown" and State as "??". Additionally, I have enabled Developer Options with USB Debugging.
what os are you using. i see that on my linux box with some devices. i normally kill adb and restart it as root and the devices shows up and works correctly. found that solution years ago on stack overflow or something like that. not sure if the same thing is needed with windows/osx. on linux, assuming adb is in your path:
$ killall adb
$ sudo adb devices
otherwise os you're trying to connect it to and the specific device information would probably be helpful in tracking it down.
I have a few suggestions. Try them in this order until it works.
Reboot the phone.
Try turning off and then back on "USB Debugging" on your phone (in Developer Options probably).
open cmd > go to the your Android SDK directory > type cd platform-tools > type ./adb kill-server > then finally type ./adb start-server

The solution for my device after updating was to completely uninstall the device driver from device manager and reinstalling it. I am using windows and my mobile was shown as Android Phone and not as Nexus 7. Home it helps someone.

Adb can't find my device

I was developing an android application from Eclipse, connecting my Acer ICONIATAB A 500, with Android 3.0.1. And I did not have any problem.
Now I'm trying to developing the same application on Acer ICONIATAB A 501, with Android 3.2
and my ADB can't find the new device, while Windows can find it! I set in my tablet Debug USB option active, and I installed the appropriate driver on Windows.
I installed even the last Google USB driver (Rev. 7)
I tried to list the device find form adb with command
adb devices
from command line, but List of devices attached is empty.
What can i do?
execute these line
adb kill-server
adb start-server
if it is mobile device check that in settings, developers options , debugging mode is checked or not
You need to install LGUnitedMobileDriver package from the LG website, even though Windows 7 automatically installed USB drivers for the phone.
Try to update your Android-SDK on your computer (in Eclipse or whatever IDE you are using), this helped me solve a similar Problem.

How to enable MacBook to recognize android devices

For Windows, Google provides USB Driver but Google USB Driver is not compatible with Mac OS and I read that anything did not need to Mac OS and Linux.
I've already set "USB Debugging ON" on my android device.
Followings are my development environment.
OS: Mac OS 10.6.8
Android Device: Google Nexus S
Android OS: 4.0.3
IDE: Eclipse SDK 3.7.2
The application I make uses camera, so I need to debug with devices.
It should just work.
I would imagine there's something else going on. Plug your phone in and try listing it from the command line:
$ adb devices
If it's not, try restarting the adb server:
$ adb kill-server
$ adb start-server
After you restart the server, if the device still isn't listed, unplug then plug in again to a different USB port. Failing that, restart the system.
Once the device appears when using the $ adb devices command, try obtaining a shell:
$adb shell
If that fails, I would make sure your SKD is up to date as well as the ADT Eclipse plugin.
I've had similar issues too and it seemed like it was related to the USB hubs not working properly. Trying resetting your PRAM and see if that helps.
Your Android device needs to be in Developer Mode.
Go to Settings > About phone and tap many times on the Build-Number.
