I'm trying to test an Android Application on my Galaxy Nexus (from Google). I use Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
My device doesn't show in Eclipse DDMS view. My device also doesn't show when I run adb devices in cmd.
I have USB debugging enabled.
When I try to install the USB driver as shown here I get a message that my device software is up to date.
I also tried killing the adb server and starting it again.
Give the Universal Naked Driver a try? Be sure to follow the steps in the forum post.
Nexus devices require the Google USB Drivers, you can get them through the SDK Manager.
If you have them installed and the device still is not detected try the following:
Use a different USB port (for me the USB 3.0 port is always making problems)
Restart the device and the computer
Restart ADB
Also take a look here, which explains how to install drivers for the Nexus S.
I had a similar problem. I could not get my device to show up in my Eclipse devices window. When I typed adb devices, no devices were discovered. Fortunately, I discovered this website. It basically had me install a generic driver for my Motorola (Android 2). It had other drivers for Samsung and other manufacturers. After the install, my Motorola phone became visible with ADB.

I may have made a mistake but I purchased a $99 Ollee brand Android tablet (M16071A) for use with debugging apps. It runs Android 5.1.1.
I can't get it to show in ADB when I run adb devices and in Windows Device Manager it always shows as having no driver.
The hardware states it runs an Intel Atom processor.
Here's what I've done so far:
1) Turned on USB debugging on the device
2) Installed latest Google USB Driver - didn't work.
3) Located the Intel driver (1.10 I think it was) and installed - didn't work
4) For each attempt I tried with the Tablet in both MTP and non-MTP modes
I have tried navigating to both drivers via the 'manually install a driver' process, selecting the location on my drive. Neither worked.
I'm running out of ideas and everything I've read is just a variation of the above.
I'm beginning to think I bought a tablet that simply doesn't work for debugging.
Are there any other steps I can try to get this working?
Thanks in advance
For several weeks, I was able to connect my Nexus 7 2 to my computer running Windows 7, and Eclipse would recognize it, allowing me to run apps on it. The device also showed up when I ran the adb devices command. Every time I plugged the Nexus 7 into the computer, the tablet asked if I wanted to allow USB debugging at that time. (Oddly, it never asked me whether I wanted to always allow it from that computer, but I didn't care.)
I recently updated the tablet to Android 4.4.2. I also updated the Android SDKs through the Android SDK manager. Now, when I plug the tablet in, I do not get prompt about USB debugging on the tablet, and neither Eclipse nor adb can see that it is there.
Here is a list of things I tried to do, gathering ideas from various forums around the web.
Re-download the Asus drivers for the Nexus 7 and update the driver. However, Windows does not even recognize this as the right drivers for this device.
Turn USB Debugging off and on on the tablet, and also revoke all USB debugging permissions.
Change the connection mode from media device to camera
Switch the runtime from Dalvik to ART
Type adb kill-server followed by adb start-server in the command line
Delete eclipse and all the Android SDK and download them all over again
None of this worked. Any other ideas on what to try?
It turns out that the Nexus 7 definitely needs the Google USB Driver. Finding, downloading, and installing this driver worked perfectly.
Because Google's Android OEM drivers page does not include the Nexus 7 in its list of devices that need the Google USB driver, I had been trying the driver from Asus, which did not work. I did not try the Google USB driver because for some reason my SDK manager said it had downloaded the driver, but the driver was not to be found.
Finally I found I could download the Google USB driver from this page, which clarifies that all Google Nexus devices need this driver. Now I have successfully re-connected the tablet to ADB.
I submitted a documentation bug report to Google here in hopes that the OEM drivers page can be updated to reflect that all Google Nexus devices need the Google USB driver.
Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.4.4. Settings > Storage > USB Computer Condition.
Two checkboxes: MTP and PTP. Uncheck both.
With your phone disconnected
In windows explorer - right click computer, go to manage, in computer management find and uinstall device driver (under Android device)
Download new drivers from http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#top
Connect the phone, windows will try to install new drivers, install drivers manually with drivers downloaded as above
The above worked for me
For me, after updating to Android 4.4.2, it was critical that I connected the device as a Camera (PTP) rather than as a Media Device (MTP). Previously, before the update, I was able to connect as a Media Device (MTP).
The problem is that you have not all needed drivers (PC can recognise your phone like usb device but debugging would not work). I solved this problem in Android 4.4.4 by uncheking all items (MTP, PTP, UMS) from menu: storage->USB computer connections and than tick 'Media device(MTP). Now all works fine.
thank you Arthur, I found Nexus 7 tab not working even after unchecking or checking. Problem solved by unchecking USB Debugging (under developer options).. settings>Developer option> USB debugging. then check (put tick the MTP device):.storage->USB computer connections and than tick 'Media device(MTP)
Complete checklist:
Enable debugging onto the device
Select USB Connection as PTP (camera)
Install the driver from http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Before you try anything, make sure you update your Build related tools using your Android SDK Manager. Your adb might be outdated.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 that I would like to deploy my app to using eclipse. However the device simply does not appear on the list of devices to deploy to.
I am using Windows 7 64-bit.
The phone appears as a drive when plugged in, allowing me to transfer files to and from the device.
The phone has developer mode and USB debugging switched on.
In the Android SDK Manager, the Google USB Driver appears as installed.
I have manually installed the usb driver located at \extras\google\usb_driver\.
This same device has been recognised and deployed to on other computers.
I have tried restarting the adb server in command prompt using adb kill-server and then typing adb start-server.
I have tried restarting both the phone and the computer.
My deployment screen simply thinks there is no android device:
Any ideas? Is there perhaps something I am missing here that is required for my android device to be properly recognised by eclipse?
First, is your device id showing up when you use adb devices
If it is, it's just a matter of restarting eclipse. Another cause could be that you're using the Google USB driver, whereas you should be using Samsung's Android USB driver, which can be found here:
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows
Get the drivers for your Galaxy S4 here:
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows
P.S. ya better got Nexus 5
You should install Samsung KIES, that have included some USB Drivers and something more, then you will able the possibility to eclipse sdk recognize your Phone, i was with the same problem, after i installed KIES everything worked fine, trust me.

ADB dosn't recognize my Galaxy Nexus - Win7
I'm not seeing my Nexus7 listed in Eclipse's DDMS Devices.
DDMS and "adb devices" from the console show my G1 android phone, but not the Nexus7.
Usb Debugging is enabled on both phones, Eclipse is up to date as far as I can tell, Android SDK's Google-USB-rev6
When I plugged in the N7 USB, I did see the Windows7 driver installed, and can browse files on it from file manager.
MTP/PTP made no difference (MTP drivers from Microsoft Update, none for PTP)
"Select debug app" in Developer Options shows nothing.
"Unknown sources" is checked.
Tried different Usb port, toggled Usb Debugging.
Heres what I did to get it working:
I happened to already have ADB drivers for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus installed, if you don't, you need to download those.
Plug in the Nexus 7 and windows will find 2 drivers automatically, but won't find any for "Nexus"
Go to Device Manager, under "Other Devices" you'll see "Nexus" with the yellow exclamation mark, Right Click>Upate Drivers>Let me choose>Let me pick form device drivers on my computer.
Scroll down to "SAMSUNG Android Phone" (Again, the Galaxy Nexus drivers should be installed already, if not, find them), and choose the driver for "Android ADB Interface"
Click "Next", and the device should pop up in Eclipse.
It worked for me, at least.
This is how I finally got it to work.
Download the naked adb driver:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766220
Unzip it
Open device manager
Find Nexus 7 in portable devices
Right click and select Update Driver Software
A couple clicks and typing lets you enter a path for your driver, enter wherever you put the unzipped naked driver
Now when the device is plugged in it shows up as Android Phone which seems like we are getting somewhere.
Reboot (I got frustrated because still not seeing my device in ADB DEVICES--might not be necessary)
Device manager, right click Android Phone/Google Nexus 7 ADB Interface, Update Driver Software
I selected USB Composite device but don't remember exactly how since I can't get back to that screen
ADB DEVICES shows my device now! (Also Eclipse)
When I go into Device Manager the driver for my nexus 7 is "Google Nexus 7 ADB Interface" provided by Google, Inc., dated 12/6/2010, version 4.0.0.0 and it is not digitally signed
Hope this helps someone, why doesn't ASUS have a downloadable driver on their website?
I wasted a bit of time getting my Nexus 7 USB/debug connection to work. In between poor documentation and lack of feedback from Windows 7 drivers, I missed a subtlety in the setup on the device. Enabling the debugging features on the device proper is actually two modifications, not one:
Go to Settings -> Developer options
Enable the developer settings overall by toggling the button on the top right, which enables other settings on the page. I skim read the rest of the options, and figured I was done.
Then enable the option "USB debugging", subtitled "Debug mode when USB is connected". If you don't switch this on, your drivers will register, but never do anything, or tell you why not... i.e. you're device won't even be listed when you run "adb devices", and Windows won't enable any of the standard USB file access features either.
Are you using a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows? I too have the same problem and have had success using the same device on Macintosh.
My experience with drivers and 64-bit windows has been hit or miss since the Nexus One.
The correct driver now appears to install to [Android SDK]\google-usb_driver instead of just usb_driver. I still have both directories but once I pointed the driver update at the Google one it worked.
Use a mac?
I have the same exact problem and have spent hours trying to get this to work on my Windows 7 laptop, I have messed around with the Universal Naked Driver (0.7) and tried to use the driver install tool in the Nexus Root Toolkit (1.5.2). No help. I also searched Asus for a driver (nothing but a manual there). I also made sure all my Android SDK software was up to date.
When I try on a Mac it does show up! It still doesn't show up on my Windows 7 laptop using "adb devices", or in Eclipsed under DDMS. A galaxy nexus running jelly bean shows up just fine on the laptop.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus phone that works is using a Samsung driver
Got it working by downloading and running the root toolkit from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475), just far enough to put the Nexus7 drivers in a directory I could point to, and "Update Driver" for the "MTP device" manually. Similar to what user1023127 did below with Samsung-Nexus drivers, but I didn't test those.
Now seeing asus-nexus device in Eclips/DDMS, and was able to run an app on the tablet.
I can confirm HappyFunBall's solution. Do not use the automatic driver install in Nexus Root Toolkit; complete Step 4 of the manual install and stop.
I don't think you need drivers.
Do what I do:
Publish your app to your computer.
Then In google play download Bluetooth File Transfer app (or any other file manager).
Copy your app to a folder inside your nexus 7.
Open Bluetooth File Transfer and click on your app.
And finally click ok to install.
You'll have to do this until Asus releases some User Friendly Interface.
everyone, I would like to connect my galaxy nexus to the eclipse, which allows me to use the real device for debugging my program, however, my galaxy nexus does not appear even I have clicked on the usb debugging option in the developer mode. Can anyone give a hand to me, thank you!
Which operating system are you using?
If on Windows:
Have you installed the ADB and FastBoot? Does your device show up if you do adb devices?
If not, follow the instructions here or here.
Reconnection your device, open a console window and type: adb devices. If your device is listed in the output, Eclipse will also pick it up.
For Samsung provided firmware and drivers, check here.
If on Linux:
Follow this tutorial. You don't necessarily have to unlock the bootloader. As long as your device shows up in adb devices after adding the device identification lines in udev, followed by a udev restart with sudo service udev restart, all should be good.
Here is another tutorial that claims to install ADB automatically on both Windows, Linux and Mac. I haven't tried it myself. So it might be a good idea to peep inside the Knives-&-Forks scripts before executing them.
Make sure the USB driver is installed. Instructions can be found here.
