Invisible device and ADB driver - android

I'm trying to connect to my Prestigo PMP3370B using ADB. But the device is not listed in my W7 64bit connected hardware list (only as USB disc). I already checked on device option in developer option on phone. I'm also not mouting it as USB disc.
There is also no specific ADB driver (or I can't find it) to this type of device, but I want at least try to use some generic driver pro this device. Does someone known what is the best approach to do that? How to make the device visible?
Thanks!

I contacted my local Prestigio user support which told me to use default ADB drivers, but it didn't work. They didn't send me any special driver or didn't know about any.
Then I contacted international user support which told me that they didn't provide this ADB driver to users/developers.
I returned this tablet to the seller. The end.

adb device - adb usb cmd shows either no device OR restarting in usb mode

My device is a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6. I have the android SDK on my path and such, I have a sure connection between the PC and the phone, I can use it as a media device and share files between, and I have set the developer options. In addition, I have tried USB tethering, and when I do it changes from no device to 'restarting in USB mode'
I am on lollipop 5.1 and windows 10.
Please advise.
You need a special USB driver for Windows to support adb. This page has more details: http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html
Vodafone isn't listed as one of the vendors with a driver there, though. You may need to look at the USB VID/PID which is presented and if it matches one of the "known" IDs (such as Google's) then using the Google Windows driver may work for you.

Android: AVD manager won't detect Byond B54 and Micromax phones as Virtual Device

I need to use my phone as emulator/target/virtual device when I run my application. I have enabled the USB Debugging in Settings.
What more do I need to do to make Eclipse AVD Manager to detect my Byond B54 and Micromax devices? How to get in usb drivers for these devices?
You need to install the drivers for windows to detect those devices.
if the drivers for those devices from respective manufactures are not available,
you can download and use moborobo. It works for most devices. I have used it for Byond tablet.
This Link will help you with the list of all the companies and their links which provide USB drivers. Please note that some companies may not be listed in this list. In that case you may have to go to the respective website of the company and search for the particular device driver.
As you are saying that you have enabled the USB debugging mode in those devices. Check whether they are connected properly. open the command prompt and type:
adb devices
The result will give the list of the connected devices. If the device can be seen in the list then you can be sure that its connected properly. And you can install the app directly on the device by typing in:
adb install path_of_the_apk_file/your_apk_file.apk
But note that you can only install the app in this manner not debug it.
install pda.net on your system.this software mostly works with all devices.Search PDA.net on google and install it after downloading .

debugging on usb connected device

I am trying to debug on a USB connection to several different Sony tablets (particularly the P, which is listed as supported). I can debug on a smart phone, but the tablet doesn't show up as a connected device when I try to run my app in Eclipse. I have checked that the settings of the tablet have Applications->Unknown sources, and Applications->Development->USB Debugging
This is a fairly common problem. You basically don't have the drivers you need for USB debugging.
There are a few different ways I've had to obtain drivers for phones. The first way you should attempt is to go into the Android SDK and AVD manager and download the Google USB driver debug package.
This may or may not give you the driver you need. If it doesn't you will have to do one of two things. One, add the device details to the driver file you just downloaded. Generally these will be posted on forums/boards discussing your Tablet/Phone type. Secondly, you can download a different driver from another source like the Tab/Phone manufacturer.
Here a Youtube video how to install Sony Tablet S & P
Or the app you are developing has set the target higher than your tablet supports. Then it also won`t show up in the AVD Manager.
In case you wont get proper drivers for your tablet you can try adb over network.
Connect your device to wifi as well as your computer.
turn on ADB over network in Options for developers (maybe some ROM dont support it). Eventualy you can enable this using specific commands on your tablet.
on your computer run terminal and use: adb connect <ip>:<port> where <ip> refers to IP of your tablet and <port> refers to port on which adb is listening (usually 5555).
run adb devices to verify that device is connected

Enable USB debugging on Android

I am trying to enable USB Debugging on Android so that I don't need to use the emulator.
I did what all the posts all around the web say to do: I went to settings -> applications -> Developer -> USB debugging
It still does not turn on the notification sign that USB Debugging is enabled, and Eclipse does not recognize it, and uses the regular emulator.
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong?
You haven't specified what device you are using or what operating system you are using, so that could be helpful.
A few things to keep in mind:
1 Don't mount as USB storage.
2 You also need to make sure to install the drivers for your phone so that the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) can properly communicate. After these are installed, try the command "adb devices" and you should see an item in your list of devices.
Update based on your comment: You can download Kies from Samsung, which include the drivers (as well as other things): http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/
Or you can find unofficial driver-only packages, such as: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956
I think you'll need the OEM USB dirvers.
Read this:
OEM USB Drivers
My experience with windows has been that you might need to un-install the USB drivers under device manager. Then disconnect the device (restart might be required). After plugging the device back in make sure you use the manufactures drivers if available
you have installed your device driver rite?then right click on your app name->run as->run configurations->target->select manual->apply.after that click on debug button then it will ask you to select the device.
If everything else is tested, try with another USB cable.
On Android 4.2 and higher, the Developer options screen is hidden by default. To make it visible, go to Settings > About phone and tap Build number seven times. Return to the previous screen to find Developer options at the bottom.
Fruthermore on some devices you will be asked to accept an RSA key, which allows debugging through your computer. This ensures that other adb commands cannot be executed unless you're able to unlock your device.
Detailed information can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html It is the overview about adb commands (which is used to send data to your device) and it starts with the steps how to bring your phone to debug-mode.
I wish to add to Danation's answer with the following.
If you have installed KIES, and you've tried following instructions a couple of times (for the android SDK package) without success, here's what worked for me:
As a precaution, disconnect the device, and press 'Revoke USB Debugging authorizations'.
Now, go to kies, and reinstall the device driver as seen on the image below.
Connect the device.
For me, it was a routine, it usually works when installing kies, but I was stuck on this today for a little while, and I hope i can help others with my solution as well..

Android development on Win 7 64-bit with Pulse Mini (Huawei)

Any ideas where I can begin to find out what's going wrong?
I have a T-Mobile Pulse Mini (Huawei) which I'd like to get working for developing and testing apps on. I can't get it to be seen by Android Debug Bridge despite restarting the adb server. (and emulators are seen by adb any way so that's unlikely to be the problem).
In the device manager the phone is displayed as a CD-ROM and when I select 'transfer files' from the auto 'PcOptions.exe' it is then displayed as a USB driver but in either case I can't see it in adb. I have enabled debugging on the phone. I remember it took me ages to get it to work on my previous Vista 32-bit. I can't figure out where to search from here. The drivers used to install the phone are on the phone itself.
Thanks very much.
Drivers. If you can't see the phone in ADB, it's almost always a driver issue and this is especially common on Windows. The regular user drivers are sometimes different from the ADB drivers. If you can find the OEM dev drivers directly that's ideal, otherwise there's a way to modify the INF file which you'll have to Google for unless someone else provides it, as I don't remember the details at the moment.
