I'm having problems starting my adb in eclipse and looked for all answers here for this issue such as stopping an antivirus called COMODO Defense+ which i actually don't have or copying files from \platform-tools to \tool........ but non worked.
I get the following erros when ever reseting adb or trying to run my android application:
[2014-04-07 16:58:55 - Trucks] The connection to adb is down, and a severe error has occured.
[2014-04-07 16:58:55 - Trucks] You must restart adb and Eclipse.
[2014-04-07 16:58:55 - Trucks] Please ensure that adb is correctly located at 'C:\Users\........\adb.exe' and can be executed.
and the adb is directed in this directory for sure.
Also i get pop messages:
Adb failed to restart!
Make sure the plugin is properly configured.
and
Attempting to restart adb, but version check failed!
I had a randsome virus a while ago that locked my files, but i have unlocked them all now, could the virus had done something with eclipse that changed something related to the Adb?
I've had this problem before
at first kill adb.exe from task manager;
then turn off antivirus firewall - (or Put adb.exe in extensions).
at last start adb.exe.
try it , i hope it work;

I have installed adt bundle eclipse. However, I can't seems to run the AVD. I have the problem of
ADB server didn't ACK
failed to start daemon
I have search on how to solve it, I've read to type adb kill-server and adb start-server. when I typed that, it says
adb server is out of date. killing...
ADB server didn't ACK
* failed to start daemon *"
Please follow below steps:-
Go to run
open command prompt
get into your platform-tools under android sdk.
now type command: adb kill-server
then upon success type: adb start-server
Thats'it.
Let me know if you still facing any issue..
I had this exact problem on my Vista x64 system. I solved it by doing the following:
Ctrl-Alt-Del, start Task Manager, under Processes tab, check for "shuame_helper.exe". It was there from running RootGenius. I clicked End Process, then went back to the command prompt and entered adb start-server and it worked!
Try below step from DDMS in eclipse :
So I had the same problem and failed in all the same ways as above:
adb kill-server
followed by
adb start-server
still resulted in the ADB server didn't ACK error.
The other common suggestion of using the task manager to kill the process also
failed as it seemed that something restarted adb automatically? It would disappear for a second, then there were two adb processes ,then there was one again.
Exasperated.
I restarted Windows in safe mode.
This ensured that adb wasn't started.
Shut down and restart normally. Problem solved.
Just for good measure, I also updated eclipse and android at this point, but I think that the safe mode restart fixed it.
Give it a try when all else fails.
When this happens I open Activity Monitor (on mac) or Task Manager (on windows) and look for the ADB process and force close it (sometimes there are more than one, close those to) and then press the Run button again in Android Studio or Eclipse.
1)Open task manager first
2)close any instance of adb.exe(end task it)
3)open command prompt
4) type adb start-server(you may have to execute it twice)
5) try to run now.
I had this problem using the latest ADT, SDK and Eclipse on Windows 7. I had an old ASUS TF101 and an HTC HD connected with their respective docking software. When I looked in processor tab of the Windows task manager I could see two instances of the adb.exe, one loaded and another one looking like it is trying to load.
I killed the PC connecting software (process in task manager) for the ASUS, the HTC Sync wasn't running. There is now one adb.exe running and both devices are recognised in Eclipse and in the command prompt (adb devices). You may need to restart Eclipse.
When I try to test my Android application with an android emulator as always I now suddenly get an error message. I'm working with Windows 8. So far I tried the following things which unfortunately could not solve the problem:
reinstalling eclipse with android adt
reinstalling java
installing "android studios" first solved the problem but after one day mysteriously also here adb, stopped working with the error message given in the title " ADB not responding ...
furthermore I unsuccessfully tried out some advice from Mr. Google:
Stopping adb.exe via task-manager and restarting eclipse / android studios
"adb kill-server" then "start-server" via command prompt
setting the path to adb.exe as an environment variable
switching off any antivirus or firewall
starting the IDEs as an administrator
updating the IDEs
The only thing I can remember doing which may have destroyed adb on my computer for all times: I connected my motorola smartphone to my laptop and installed the motorola usb drivers but as I said the adb also won't work with the emulator.
Any help would be kindly appreciated. The issue bothers me for more than an entire day now. Maybe someone had similar problems on Windows 8 ?
On OSX helped:
Close Android Studio
Kill all processess using 5037 port
sudo lsof -i |grep 5037
sudo kill PID_NUMBER
Run adb devices from console
adb devices
Meanwhile the emulator is working again. I cannot definetly say what solved the problem. What It could be a combination of two things:
Deleting the hidden ".android" folder under C:\Users...
(Probably there was some malfunctioning automatically created code)
Deleting and recreating the Path variable to the folder with adb.exe ( ...\sdk\platform-tools\;)
Finally it could be a Windows 8 issue which I don't understand.
Try this,
Open a command prompt with administration permission and type
netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
This worked for me
Edit: Windows only
Kill the adb.exe with a command prompt. Open a command prompt were your adb.exe is located and type
adb kill-server
Maybe HTTP Proxy blocked the localhost 127.0.0.1:5037
If you have config the HTTP Proxy, make sure to exclude the localhost like picture below
Also, port can also be blocked by the firewall and anti-virus firewall, please notice as well.
Try this,
at the prompt try adb kill-server
Start one of your AVDs
at the prompt try adb root
The prompt should say adbd is already running as root.
That should fix it.
In case it helps anyone else, for me the problem was related with the USB hub that the tablet was plugged into on the computer (unplugging the webcam which was in use fixed it).
I got the same error. Don't worry. I have an solution. Go to Task Manager. Kill the process called adb.exe. You will find 2 or 3 processes. Kill all of them. You are done. It will work.
I have the same problems. Verify port 5037 is free and ports 5555 to 5585 are available and never used by another process.
"ADB server sets up connections to all running emulator/device instances. It locates emulator/device instances by scanning odd-numbered ports in the range 5555 to 5585"
FROM: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
To find out which process is listening on a port on Windows yo can use:
C:> netstat -an -o
FROM: How can you find out which process is listening on a port on Windows?
I had the same problem, here is my simple fix:
-Go to task manager in windows, look for adb.exe, and kill it
-Go to command prompt, and tap adb devices ==> it will automaticaly start adb daemon
I finally just restarted the computer, and that solved the issue for me.
Uninstall HTC Sync. Or disable it somehow.
Try to open adb from command prompt from directory location as <sdk>\platform-tools,
If adb file is missing try to re-install Android SDK with latest version,
And try to run again..
I think issues will solved, by this procedure.
I saw this on a Mac OS X.
I shut down Android Studio and ran adb get-state in the terminal. When I started Android Studio back up, the warning had gone away.
BTW, I did just try restarting Android Studio without any luck. I am sure a restart of OS would have fixed it too.
The same thing with the Asus Sync utility (with the both our Transformer's 700 and 701).
I think there is a USB-port conflict between ABD driver and Sync utility.
Exit from Sync utility resolve the problem.
Looks like this could be caused by a bunch of different issues. This just happened to me because I had my android phone device plugged in for USB debugging, then after a few hours (and multiple android studio/phpstorm restarts) I had to do unplug the device manually. Things started working again after unplugging.
I have faced this problem few days ago. When I opened my task manager it showing me two adb runnig. It may be because of I am using mobogenie for connecting my android phone for debugging application. This problem is because of moboginie and adt port conflict. then I have followed following procedure to sort out this issue.
!) close eclipse
2) Go to task manager and kill all adb processes.
3) Now go to platform-tools in android sdk
4)press shift+right click mouse and select "open command window here" option
5) type
adb kill-server
adb start-server
6)if server sucessfully started then start eclipse and then connect your phone
(Remember dont connect your phone before starting eclipse)
Following works for me every time:
go to File->Invalidate Caches/Restart
select Invalidate and Restart
And, You are good to go.
ADB when run stand-alone works fine. I can connect to my device (HTC Desire) and perform .apk installs etc, so I know the USB drivers are working correctly. A common reason for this question, I know, but that can be ruled out.
Occasionally I can connect to the phone, very occasionally. 99% of the time I just get the standard windows popup "adb.exe has stopped working".
I've updated Eclipse to the latest version.
I'm sure the USB drivers are working correctly
I can connect via adb in command line mode with no issues.
I've searched for a solution until google begged me to stop :)
Seems like a DDMS Eclipse issue.
Any ideas ?
Actually, just before I sent this I had a brainwave.
Without Eclipse running I ran adb.exe from command line and performed an install -r of my .apk package.
All worked fine.
I then started Eclipse - the connection to my phone worked fine...
Nope, Eclipse now failing again. BUT with eclipse trying to connect (and failing) I can simultaneously run adb from command line and install the package. It's got to be Eclipse
If you have an alternate "launcher" or "home-screen" installed, that might be forcing the connection to close. If you have one installed, either force stop it or uninstall it.
I've found that some apps running in your phone can cause ADB to crash for some reason. Try to close unnessecary apps running on your phone when developing in eclipse
In my case, I had an instance of adb.exe from another package (Android-Sync) running. Processes with this file name are common in packages that sync devices. You can find more information about programs that use an adb.exe process here: What is adb.exe ? adb.exe info
To determine if you have an adb.exe process already running, look in your Task Manager on the Processes tab to find the running adb.exe. You can right-click and select Properties from the menu to find out the full path of the adb.exe.
To solve the problem and allow Eclipse access to the correct adb.exe, I shut down Eclipse and the emulator. Then I went into the Task Manager and shut down the running adb.exe. There may be more than one. Then I restarted Eclipse and the emulator. Fortunately, when I started my Android Virtual Device, that program was smart enough to start up the correct adb.exe.
In my case was kinda problem with USB driver. Just plug your phone always to the same USB port.
Is there anyone who has had any problems using WIN7 and Eclipse?
Everytime Eclipse starts this error always comes up: UNABLE TO PARSE ADB VERSION
If you try and run/debug the app from within WIN7,
The connection to adb is down, and a severe error has occured.
[2010-01-29 19:00:17 - app name] You must restart adb and Eclipse.
[2010-01-29 19:00:17 - app name] Please ensure that adb is correctly
located at 'C:\Android\tools\adb.exe' and can be executed.
Adb is located at C:\Android\tools\adb.exe, and can be
executed from the cmd line. Tried quitting eclipse and WIN7 and
restarted. Ran adb kill-server, adb start-server
daemon not running...
starting it now.
daemon started successfully.
start eclipse, and then that's when the error comes up. This is
driving us crazy.
So, if by chance there is anyone else using WIN7 professional version
to develop on and has encountered this problem with adb and found a solution, please post it.
I turned off Defense module in COMODO and the same problem was fixed.
I run Win7 Ulitmate with Eclipse Indigo 7.1 and Android SDK R15 for Windows. This fix should pertain only to those who have comodo Internet Security installed.
Turning off the Defense module in Comodo worked also but instead of turning off the Defense module in Comodo, I added C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb.exe to safe programs. adb.exe was in the Sandbox and was marked as unsafe.
Allowing ADB.exe through Windows Firewall solved this error on my machine.
I am running Windos 7 and Eclipse 3.5 and I don't know why I keep getting this error. When I try run the program it gives me:
[2010-02-13 23:09:41 - HelloAndroid]The connection to adb is down, and a severe error has occured.
[2010-02-13 23:09:41 - HelloAndroid]You must restart adb and Eclipse.
[2010-02-13 23:09:41 - HelloAndroid]Please ensure that adb is correctly located at 'C:\Users\Mohit\Documents\AndroidSDK\tools\adb.exe' and can be executed.
I even tried runing Eclipse and adb.exe as admin. What is going on? How can I fix this and start making Android apps?
turned off COMODO Defense+ module and all worked....
If you have comodo internet security installed, you dont have to shut this feature down:
run comodo settings
defense+
list active processes
add adb.exe to trusted processes
restart server: run "adb kill-server" "adb start-server"
EDIT: For user of Comodo 6.x
Open Comodo
Click Tasks Icon at right top
Click Advanced Tasks
Click Open Advanced Settings
Select Security Settings --> File Rating --> Trusted files from
left panel
Click on the upward arrow icon at the bottom
Click Add --> add the adb.exe
there you go :) Hope this helps
Yes i had the same problem after i had did the update,
however, i have just fixed it :)
TO FIX THE PROMBLEM:
in folder: \android-sdk-windows\
go to folder \platform-tools ; copy the files
and paste in to folder \tool
Restart the Eclipse
I messed with all the solutions provided above, but I found another one-
Try launching eclipse with administrator privileges
RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR
hope it'll do the job.
After installing 2.3 SDK I got adb inside D:\AndroidSetup\android-sdk-
windows\platform-tools directory. I had set this path in environment
variable and my problem is solved.
Two options to solve this problem on windows:
Option 1:
Close the eclipse, if it is running.
Run the command prompt.
Go to the tools location of the android sdk.
run 'adb kill-server'
then run 'adb start-server'.
start the eclipse.
Option 2:
Open the task manager.
kill the adb process.
start the eclipse.
Problem should be solved.
What it work for me and this was because I move from one eclipse to another is to re install SDK and then re install ADT again, remove completly from eclipse ADT and re install.
As illustrated by this thread, you may need to kill an exisiting abd process, or unblock the 5037 port (remnants of previous adb start attempts).
Try closing Eclipse, issuing a
'C:\Users\Mohit\Documents\AndroidSDK\tools kill-server' command from terminal and retrying.
If that still doesn't work, you could try opening Activity Monitor to see if there are any existing adb processes running, and kill them.
Hi, it's OK now, I'saw with the nestat - a command line that theer was several processus on the 5037 port. The port wich serves for the emulator.
Thanks
force to start sdk manager several times (try directly from the file explorer). when you could do that comodo may send a mesage. allow the issue. then start again the sdk manager and update.
update eclipse then.
