I am trying to setup ADB debugging via a wired USB connection from my PC running Window 10 Pro (on a 64-bit Core i7) to my Sony Smartwatch 3.
My PC is generally setup for Android Development, including for Android Wear (e.g. ADB debugging my Nexus 5X phone or Samsung Gear Live watch both work fine). I've enabled developer options on the watch, including "ADB Debugging".
I believe the problem is that I don't have a USB driver setup properly. As far as I know, it should work with the "Google USB Driver", which I have installed, but nevertheless, I get the yellow triangle next to "Smartwatch 3" in device manager.
I tried to follow the instructions from "Unable to Use Android USB Drivers on Windows 10", but I got this error dialog and could not proceed:
Select Device
The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems.
OK
While I was writing this question, I managed to get it working!
Here's what I did:
I followed the instruction from this post:
1) Right click on the Start menu and select Device Manager
2) Right click on the Android Device and select Update Driver
3) Select Browse my computer for driver software
4) Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
At this point, I chose "Android Device" (or one of the Android things anyway) and then "Android ADB Interface", rather than using the path to the Google USB Driver.
I have the following configuration
Windows 7 Ultimate running on MacBookPro
Samsung Galaxy SIII (GT-I9300) with cyanogenmod 10.2(stable)
Android SDK with eclipse
I tried so much but my eclipse is not detecting the phone for usb debugging of an android application. I already tried the following.
I enabled the USB debugging on phone
After I connect my phone through USB cable I can only charge the phone. But can't do any file transfer.
I installed the samsung kies lite and samsung kies 3 also. But no luck. Still cant detect.
In the device manager, under other devices, it lists my phone as usb device with name GT-I9300 with an yellow mark. I tried to update the driver and chose the google driver which comes with sdk. But it shows Windows could not find device driver software for your device.
I tried the commands "adb devices" and "fastboot devices". But the list is blank.
Now I am out of options. Can anybody give me some idea where is the problem or how can i troubleshoot it step by step?
You need to download Google usb driver in your SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html)
Then update the driver with local file from SDK_PATH/extras/google/usb_driver/
[EDIT]
If you still have the problem do update driver like this:
Choose Let me pick from the list of device drivers on my computer
Click Have disk
Browse for SDK_PATH/extras/google/usb_driver/android_winusb.inf
Select Android ADB Interface and install.
I had the same problem and this is how I fixed it. Hope it works for you as well.
Open the "Device Manager".
Expand the "Other Devices" and right click on the device below
Select the "Update drivers" option.
Then "Browse my computer for driver software" and choose "let me pick from list of device drivers from my computer".
Click the "have disk" button.
Pick the "android_winsub.inf" file from SDK driver.
Select "Android ADB Interface"
Then simply click ok and install it. Remember the "Other Devices" option may get disappear after the completion of the process so check in the task bar there should be a USB icon showing the connectivity. That means it's working fine and you're good to go.
Android device chooser can't show my real device.
But device manager recognizes and I use Eclipse Juno,windows 7 and my device nexus 7, and I've already tried command: adb kill server and updating usb driver.
Pls update google usb driver.

this link will help to solve the issue.
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Device Manager in the left pane of the Computer Management window.
Locate and expand Android Phone in the right pane.
Right-click Android Composite ADB Interface and select Update Driver. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.
Select Search for the best driver in these locations; un-check Search removable media; and check Include this location in the search.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver\.)
Click Next to upgrade the driver.
I'm on a Windows 7 device (Archos 101 Internet tab/Prestigio 7100c). It's connected with PC via USB cable. USB debugging is enabled from device settings.
Device manager -> PMP7100c -> right click -> Update Driver Software
-> Search Automatically For Updated Driver Software
-> Driver Software For Your Device Is Up To Date.
Then I open Eclipse
Run -> Run Configurations and select active devices as target -> apply
-> Run -> "No active compatible AVD's or devices found.
Relaunch this configuration after connecting a device or starting an AVD."
Is "adb" driver different from Device Menager's "driver software for your device"?I assumed that it is different and downloaded adb driver from Archos site and I got some .zip file.How to configure it?
look for the USB driver for your device
install it
restart your command prompt
To install the Android USB driver on Windows 7 for the first time:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.

Right-click the device name (such as Nexus S) and select Update Driver Software. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Select Browse my computer for driver software and click Next.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in \extras\google\usb_driver.)
Click Next to install the driver.
Or, to upgrade an existing Android USB driver on Windows 7 with the new driver:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Device Manager in the left pane of the Computer Management window.
Locate and expand Android Phone in the right pane.
Right-click Android Composite ADB Interface and select Update Driver. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in \extras\google\usb_driver.)
Click Next to upgrade the driver.
If you are on a mac and are pretty sure you should already have the drivers for the device then make sure to click the check mark next to 'USB debugging' inside the 'Developer Options' in settings. I can't tell you how dumb I felt when I unlocked the developer options by pressing the build number seven times then saw the developer options were unlocked and assumed usb debugging would automatically be selected only to find out 30 min later that I had to touch the little box. Yeah... don't do dumb kids!
You might have to change the active USB computer connection setting. I had the same problem while running a Beanstalk custom rom based on Android 4.3. It was solved by switching from the default Media device (MTP) to Mass storage. The device was then automatically recognized by eclipse.
I use eclipse + ADT (andoid development tool) plugin to develop my android application.
I know during my development, I can run my application either on an emulator, or an android phone device(with data cable connected to my laptop).
BUT, now, I would like to run my application on a android Tablet(ZTE brand) during my development. How can I run it on the tablet?? I mean the tablet has no data cable to connect to my laptop, but only bluetooth.
What I need to configure on eclispe?
Can I just use bluetooth to connect the device, and trigger the application to run from eclipse?
How to run my application on the tablet during development on eclipse?
Perhaps this question could help. It discusses how you can connect to adb through Wi-Fi.
I've found dropbox to be a great way to distribute test versions of your apk. Make sure you have the setting turned on for non-market sources. Then just pull it up from within dropbox on your device.
if there is no usb-cable you cannot debug yor application on the tablet.
you can only export the app with eclipse and install the apk on the tablet to see how the application looks like. But there is no debugging over bluetooth
As long as your device can install apps from non-market sources, you can simply put your APK file somewhere accessible to a web browser, then browse to it from the device, which should cause it to be downloaded. Once it's downloaded, selecting it (using a file explorer app) will cause it to be installed.
You can't debug this way, but if you have something like aLogCat loaded you can view your app's log messages.
With an Android-powered device, you can develop and debug your Android applications just as you would on the emulator. Before you can start, there are just a few things to do:
Declare your application as "debuggable" in your Android Manifest.
When using Eclipse, you can skip this step, because running your app directly from the Eclipse IDE automatically enables debugging.
In the AndroidManifest.xml file, add android:debuggable="true" to the element.
Note: If you manually enable debugging in the manifest file, be sure to disable it before you build for release (your published application should usually not be debuggable).
Enable USB debugging on your device.
On most devices running Android 3.2 or older, you can find the option under Settings > Applications > Development.
On Android 4.0 and newer, it's in Settings > Developer options.
Note: On Android 4.2 and newer, Developer options is hidden by default. To make it available, go to Settings > About phone and tap Build number seven times. Return to the previous screen to find Developer options.
Set up your system to detect your device.
If you're developing on Windows, you need to install a USB driver for adb. For an installation guide and links to OEM drivers, see the OEM USB Drivers document.
If you're developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step.
If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a udev rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development. In the rules file, each device manufacturer is identified by a unique vendor ID, as specified by the ATTR{idVendor} property. For a list of vendor IDs, see USB Vendor IDs, below. To set up device detection on Ubuntu Linux:
Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules.
Use this format to add each vendor to the file:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
In this example, the vendor ID is for HTC. The MODE assignment specifies read/write permissions, and GROUP defines which Unix group owns the device node.
Note: The rule syntax may vary slightly depending on your environment. Consult the udev documentation for your system as needed. For an overview of rule syntax, see this guide to writing udev rules.
Now execute:
chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
Note: When you connect a device running Android 4.2.2 or higher to your computer, the system shows a dialog asking whether to accept an RSA key that allows debugging through this computer. This security mechanism protects user devices because it ensures that USB debugging and other adb commands cannot be executed unless you're able to unlock the device and acknowledge the dialog. This requires that you have adb version 1.0.31 (available with SDK Platform-tools r16.0.1 and higher) in order to debug on a device running Android 4.2.2 or higher.
When plugged in over USB, you can verify that your device is connected by executing adb devices from your SDK platform-tools/ directory. If connected, you'll see the device name listed as a "device."
If using Eclipse, run or debug your application as usual. You will be presented with a Device Chooser dialog that lists the available emulator(s) and connected device(s). Select the device upon which you want to install and run the application.
If using the Android Debug Bridge (adb), you can issue commands with the -d flag to target your connected device.
