After getting my app to work in the emulator, I now want to test it on my Samsung Exhibit II Android phone. I follow the instructions from google here http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html but can't get their USB driver to load.
When I plug the phone into the computer via the supplied USB data cable, Vista auto installs it's own driver and doesn't give me a chance to point to the google driver located here: C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf.
When I go to the device manager and right-click on the Vista driver and try to Update Driver Software to point to the Google driver, it says it already has the best one and won't change it! (even though it doesn't work, ie. no drive label appears for the phone plus the device manager shows an ! for it)
I've spent many hours reading dozens of posts with similar problems but no solutions work for me. Any ideas?
Install Samsung Kies software to get the required drivers.
You can download it from this Link.
Google USB driver will not be useful for Samsung mobiles.
EDIT: updated the link above.
I think its because samsung is using its own usb driver. you should go to samsung's website and search for your mobile phone model (or just google with the model name +usb driver) and use that should do the job

I have LG G3 with android 5.0 lollipop and I want to connect it to my laptop with windows 8.1 OS (For using unity remote).
When I connect my phone I can access to storage but I can't see my device in adb.exe. I tried many solution like this and this but nothing work for me.
For now in developer mode I checked these:
Stay awake
USB debugging
Allow mock locations
And I installed the driver from lg website.
Update 2:
Actually I really confused because I think it recognize my device and show g3 name but I don't know why it can't show my device name in attached device!!!
Update:
Without lg driver installed, my device in device manager is like image below and when I try to update the driver using Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver it say: Windows could not find driver software for your device
And when I install lg driver, my device is like image below and again i can't update driver and it say: Windows has determine the driver software for your device is up to date
I think your problem about usb driver for windows.
instal pda net will solve your problem

I know this question has been asked numerous times, but none of the threads have had an answer to solve my problem. It seems no matter what i try Eclipse just wont detect my phone, I have set it to debug mode in the settings, i've installed "Kies 3" on my laptop and it says i have the latest drivers already installed on my phone when i try to update it.
I've installed the google USB driver package from the sdk manager and have downloaded and installed the samsung driver from the samsung website. Windows recognizes the device and in the device manager under android phone it appears as "SAMSUNG android ADB Inerface".
Im running windows 7 and have even tried deleting all the mounted dive drivers from regedit as i seen suggested in another thread but still no joy! Really starting to get frustrated with this at this stage i've been trying for two days now to figure this out!
This is such a pain! I need to be able to debug on my phone too as i'm using features that the emulator can't handle (i.e. audio recording). I'm all out of ideas here so any help would really be appreciated!
Thanks
The method I followed to install my GT-I9300 drivers was this:
Download samsung drivers from this link:
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows
Then just connect your phone and make sure you have a stable Internet connection: It will download required drivers automatically.
Also, make sure you have enabled Android developer options in your phone settings. Enable USB debugging in developer options.
I usually get it to work, when I switch the USB mode in my smartphone (e.g. MTP to PTP). This way, windows starts downloading more drivers.
1) Try disconnecting device from PC, revoke USB Debug authorization from settings menu, and then re-authorize the computer you are working on once you connect it again.
2) Check to see if you see the phone in DDMS perspective (left hand side) - if so, try clicking on it and it should work.
3) try removing all drivers (Google, Samsung etc.) + scan "leftover" registery entries using a reg cleaning program. Then install ONLY Kies Light version and try again.
4) It once worked for me - try changing the USB cable (preferably, to an original one)
Let us know if something worked!
1) enable USB debugging in your phone's settings.
2) ensure that you have the proper drivers installed.
3) open adb in command prompt and run "adb connect"
I want to run my own android application and sample application on my android intex x1 phone android version 2.3 a low budget phone. I connect my phone with laptop it said driver failed may be my mobile drivers.
But I have other drivers like tethering and storage(because my phone is connected).
can any one tell me what drivers i need. i don't know what are OEM drivers 0r ADB drivers.
i am finding the solution from last two days. but could not downloaded\find any working drivers. I am using window 7 and on eclipse AVD if working normally. I getting solutions like how to root your mobile etc.
I want to run application on my android phone. Please direct me some steps. I think their are no drivers available.
Is their any other solution like universal ADB drivers or like that.
Is http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA4150.exe a solution in my case?
use universal drivers that connect to any device. download your drivers from intexmobile.in.
or use software like mobogenie or pdanet+.
Picked up my S3 on launch and want to get started learning to develop for android using Eclipse. So far I'm having fun!
However, I want to be able to debug my application on the phone hardware itself and not just in an AVD. My problem is that I cannot find appropriate USB device drivers. The Samsung support site is garbage and windows update told me 'where to go'.
Has anyone got this working yet? If so, how?
For those still looking, you don't need to install the bloat. Go to:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I535RWBVZW
Click on or scroll to "Manuals & Downloads" and then USB (Driver) is available under "Downloads".
Direct download link: Samsung USB Driver - 1.5.45.00
Turns out you have to install Samsung Kies to get the USB driver. Similar to the iPhone. I wanted to avoid this unnecessary bloat (i plugged my phone in and it threw a WPF exception...) and thankfully you can uninstall Kies without uninstalling the driver. Result.
After that, ADB is able to see the phone with no problem at all and I can debug on the device perfectly.
you need the usb driver for it. Once you have that installed simply connect the phone via usb to your machine, start eclipse and adb will pick up the device given that the drivers installed properly. try this link, one of these will probably have the driver. Samsung Galaxy S3 downloads
Can be downloaded on the following link
http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/ASPS/JSP
There's no need for KIES or other bloat!!
There's a very useful toolkit that does much more then kies, and it's available here:

I have installed the latest Motorola USB drivers which include support for the Triumph.
When I plug in my phone, "adb devices" does not list my phone.
My device manager shows my device under Phone as well as Disk Drive. Both use the WPD FileSystem Volume Driver and refuse to let me update the driver by pointing the motorola drivers in Program Files. It continues to tell me that "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date."
Any ideas?
I am currently in just about the exact same predicament =/
I have some possible avenues that we could both share:
Idk if you were able to find a phone number for Motorola (American that is) but i finally found one
Motorola Mobility, Inc.
600 North U.S. Highway 45
Libertyville, Illinois 60048 USA
Telephone: +1 847 523 5000
Here is a link to yet ANOTHER programmer having the same prob as us =/, but he got it figured out using the steps he posted there
Also there is live support chat here.
If you find a solution to this problem, please, please, please let me know =) And i will do the same for you if i get it figured out soon.
Edit:
Nevermind, i got mine to work just fine =)
Heres what i did:
Used USBDeview to uninstall all previously failed attempts at drivers lol
NOTE: You will have to run USBDeview as an Administrator(right click, select Run as administrator)
In the device manager, after uninstalling all the others, right click on what pops up for the device, click update driver, browse for your own, than from there it was a series of selecting from lists, but the key thing here is to remember that eclipse debugs programs on external devices using the adb interface, which should be a pre loaded option in said select lists =)
Hope this helps!!!
Have you enabled debug mode for your phone? This can be done via settings->application settings->development->USB debugging
Whenever I've had a problem with adb recognizing my devices I've managed to fix it by adding a reference to it in my .android/adb_usb.ini file.
I only run Linux/OS X at home and I don't want to try and blindly describe how to do it on Windows from memory, but they discuss it here http://android.modaco.com/topic/294799-adb-windows-7-and-the-pulse-tutorial/
And google gives the USB Vendor ID's here http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html .
On my linux box I added:
0x0489
To my adb_usb.ini (using the Foxconn ID which on linux you can find directly via lsusb, I think you could use devcon on Windows to find it) and it shows up on my device list.
Just because this link hasn't been dropped in any answers (and I always find myself looking for it), here are the manufacturer's development drivers.
This is what worked for me. I have a Moto Triumph and Win7 x64...
Turn on Unknown Sources, USB Debugging
Install Motorola USB development driver. Unfortunately, Motorola broke the old driver URL, as well as many development forum URL's. Fortunately, Softpedia has copies of the installer. Grab the 32 bit or 64 bit version depending on your OS.
Plug in your phone by USB
Open Device Manager
View hidden devices
Uninstall default drivers (Disk Drives\Qualcomm USB, DVD\CD\Android SCSI CD-ROM, Portable Devices\F:)
Action > scan for hardware changes, or Disconnect/reconnect phone
Repeat till ADB appears (probably w/ a yellow icon indicating it's not fully installed)
Right-click ADB > update driver > browse my computer for driver > pick from a list > Motorola > Android Sooner ADB (the first entry)
Accept security warning
Done. If it worked properly, you can now view your device using adb devices.
