I have an HTC One V device, I am running some commands via ADB and using the drive mode to access from pc.
I know that HTC Sync installs the drivers, and it works completely fine. However I would like to install just the drivers without HTC sync application itself.
Is there any way to handle this?
you will need to install the android usb driver and add the hardware ids of your phone in the android_winusb.inf file - check this Problem when connecting my device to PC? .This should be enough for sending commands from adb. I also use HTC phone and I've never installed any drivers or sync software and this work just fine for me.

Android Studio is not recognizing any external emulators (phones) connected to it.
I have tried the following mentioned things without any success:
Installed the device driver. (It is working fine. The device recognizes my
phone.)
Turned on USB Debugging.
Kill-server and then start-server commands.
I am using Android Studio for Windows.
Probably you haven't installed the driver for your phone (if you use Windows). For instance, if you use Nexus or Pixel phones, you should install this. If you use Samsung phones, try this link.
It worked for me. If you still cannot see any of the devices, try calling 'Invalidate Caches / Restart' in the File menu in the Android Studio and restarting the system.
Hope it helps!
I had the same problem, my problem was I was using a cable that cam with the phone that acsually would not transfer any data from\to the phone, the moment I changed the cable it worked like magic.
Just try changing a cable 1st, the PC has to recognize the device even if You have no drivers, if Your phone doesnt ask You to give permission to access from PC than the cable is just a charging cable!
Hope it helps.
Set up a device for development (android documentation) :
On the device, open the Settings app, select Developer options, and
then enable USB debugging.
Set up your system to detect your device.
For Windows: Install a USB driver for Android Debug Bridge (adb). For an installation guide and links to OEM drivers, see the
Install OEM USB Drivers document.
When you connect a device running Android 4.2.2 (API level 17) 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.
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.
KIES Download:

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.
My problem is that adb devices does not detect my galaxy ace (s5830) using Ubuntu 12.04,
I tried everything but still not working.
Can help me where fault.
I have installed oracle sdk 1.7, last android sdk and I have created the rule 51-android.rules with permissions a+r
I had the same problem. Despite the rules file my device was not getting detected.
I did the following:
Restarted my device
Connected as "Charge only" (an HTC device).
The device was detected and I was able to install the app.
Do the following things
Download Kies for Samsung Smart Phone
Restart eclipse
In DDMS section, go windows->Show View->Devices, then click small down arrow(View Menu) and click on Reset ADB. Then it should work properly...
Android uses Java 1.6, so upgrading to 1.7 wasn't necessary.
Did you really use the Samsung vendor id 04e8 for your udev rules? And did you set debugging "on" on your actual device? Do you have any tethering app on your device (that makes use of adb)? Some do.
Also you need to restart your terminal window (or restart Eclipse) for your udev rules to be loaded for the first time, but I assume you did that already.
Also for good measure, you should restart your device as well.
If you're really desperate to get this working, you could always root your phone and use a free app like adbwireless (which only works on rooted devices and local wifi which does not have wifi isolation turned on). That's what I had to do with my Samsung Tab 10.1 (until I sent it back for repair).
Adb wasn't finding my Tab from my Ubuntu 12.04 laptop either, nor was it finding it from the Mac and the Windows PC of my developer friends, but when I tried to connect the Samsung Tab 10.1 that belonged to a friend of mine, adb was seeing it just fine on it, so this is what pinpointed the problem for me.
Try restarting adb
adb kill-server
adb devices
Make yourself a shortcut to this.
I have been developing an android app, and i wanted to test it out on a real phone. I recently bought an htc thunderbolt to try it out in. The problem is, that my computer won't install the adb driver. What do i need to do to get it to work? The ide i am using is eclipse, the computer is windows 7 home primium.
Install HTC Sync from HTC's website (this includes phone drivers). Windows should then detect your phone without a problem.
Devices under windows need their drivers.
You can get Google ones from here and other vendors from here.
After Installing the Device driver your device will detect.
later goto command prompt and write the command
adb install
eg. adb install e:\test.apk
this will install the apk file to your device
In the worst case, you always can pass the .apk to the microSD of the phone simply with a pull from the DDMS.
I tried this with a Huawei mobile and it worked fine.
