How do I install the app that I'm making on an actual device?
I'm on Mac Snow Leopard with a Nexus One phone and I've followed the steps here https://developer.android.com/studio/run/device.html
So I added:
1. android:debuggable="true"
2. Turn on "USB Debugging" on your device.
However, when I go to the terminal and do "adb devices" only the emulator shows up there.
I'm supposed to see my device name too right?
What am I missing?
The device didn't show up because of the cable.
Although the old cable was charging the phone, but for some reason it wasn't mounting the device and being new to Android, I just wasn't sure what I'm supposed to see and expect.
In case anyone is interested, there should be a "USB connected" notification if the mounting works.
(this is from menu > notification)
I'm supposed to see my device name too right?
Yes, you should see your device name right there.
What am I missing?
This is weird. Is the Android phone at least recognized by the OS, as being plugged into the USB port?
(Sorry this won't help much...)
There is a App on the marketplace I use called App Installer, I just upload the apk file to my sd card then run app installer on it.
My solution is simple, I email the apk file and then install it.

I tried to play Android Studio 2.0 with my mobile without success, what I did are:
In my mobile, Apps/gear icon/Settings/SYSTEM/{} Developer options/ Android debugging/, enable the Android Debug Bridge(adb) interface (set tick).
After plug in my mobile to my PC with a USB cable, I found A0001 in my Computer folder. Within A0001, I can see the files in my mobile.
In my PC, run Android Studio/bin/studio.exe, "Select Deployment Target" window shows with message "No USB devices or running emulators detected"
I have tried two different USB drivers but got no lucky.
Perhaps I should tell Android Studio where is my USB driver? But, how?
Can you help?
I had the same problem too and I managed to resolve it this way.
First, enable debugger mode in your android device.
Go to Device Manager from Start Menu and try to find ADB Interface with an error symbol on it. This generally happens because windows sometimes fail to load all the mobile device drives.
Next, Go to http://adbdriver.com/downloads/ and download the driver installer, unzip and run it.
Now go to Android Studio and you should find that everything is working fine.
Chill....
same here... but I hope you can avoid this problem the same way I Did.
There is an "universal ADB Driver for all Android Devices".
Yep... sounds like magic.
Just follow this link.
https://devs-lab.com/usb-adb-drivers-for-all-android-devices.html
Fun fact there is no "Step 5" in that article so I'll give you.
you have to enable "USB Depuration" from "Developer Options" connect your cellphone to computer as a "MTP storage" , after windows detected your cellphone as a "Portable Device" Execute ADBDriverInstaller.exe (that downloaded from devs-lab)
check the device list and your cellphone will say "Driver incorrectly", select your cellphone and press install.
Step 6: Once the process is completed, you’ll see something like the image that appears there (in the link).
I hope that somebody else work this
Go to Run > Edit Configurations...
Under Deployment Target Options select Show Device Chooser
Dialog from the drop-down-list
See picture for reference
After struggling with this problem for a while, I found that there are certain cables that can only charge your phone, and even though they seem to be working, they do not allow your phone to be used as a "Media Device" and therefore Android Studio does not detect it.
Go to
Tools | Android | Enable ADB Integration
Make sure it's enabled. When I upgraded to 2.X it was for some reason disabled for me and it took me hours to find it.
I just cannot beleive why it is so difficult! let me try again and please check my steps again:
I installed Android Studio 2.0, then run Computer/OS(C:)/....../Android Studio/bin/studio.exe.
The Android Studio window appeared in my working area Computer/OS2(J:)/Users/MyAccount/Desktop/.
I connected my mobile with my computer, Cpmputer/A0001/ appeared, from it, I can see the files in my mobile.
I clicked the run icon in the Android Studio window, a "Select Deployment Target" window apeared with message "No USB devices or running emulators detected".
(I got two USB ports and tried both but got the same result.)
Finally found the solution : )
1. Install device’s required driver. (for me it was motorola device
manager)
2. Download Google Usb Driver from SDK Manager
3. Open your phone's setting->developer options and turn on USB debugging.
4. connect your device to computer
5. Go to Device Manager from Start Menu and try to find if there is ADB Interface with an error symbol on it.
5.1. If yes, then right click on the ADB interface->Update driver
software->Browse my computer for driver software-> Let me pick from
a list of device drivers on my computer->Select Motorola ADB interface
5.2. Now one confirmation will pop up in your mobile, accept it
5.3. Now you should see no error mark beside the ADB interface in your
device manager
There are 3 steps to set up your phone for debugging:
1) Change your phone to developer's mode by going to Settings, About Phone, Software Info, Android Version - tap at least 7 times on the Build Number text. You will get a message saying you are now a Developer.
2) Enable USB Debugging in Settings - Developer Options. Make sure you are not connected to your USB port to see the USB Debugging option enabled, otherwise it will be disabled.
After you plug in your USB, swipe at the top of your screen, you will see USB Debugging on.
3) Make sure USB connection is set to Photo Transfer (or MTP - Transfer photos and videos). After you plug in your USB, swipe at the top of your screen, and you will see Tap to change USB options on the menu. Tap it, and select Photo Transfer option.
Perhaps your mobile manufacturer does not provide the proper driver.
Go to Device MAnager and look for: Android Composite ADB Interface. If it's there, the driver is properly installed. If not... You and I are on the same "wagon"...
I tell you: Acer? Never again.
USB debugging somehow got turned off under developer options on my Samsung. Turned it back on and it worked, but only by clicking on "debug app" instead of on "run app".
With me, when connecting the mobile to the pc, three options appeared on my mobile.
Charge this phone
Transfer Files
Transfer Images
I thought I should select "Transfer Files", but it dd not work
But it only when works I choose "Charge this phone"
Few ways to resolve this problem.
Case 1: Install PdaNet+ in your system. (worked for me).
Case 2: Enable the USB debugging option in your mobile. Setting > developer > Check "USB Debugging".
Case 3: Change from MTP to PTP.(sometimes vise versa works).
Question is Your development sdk no mobile version android sdk Platform.
For example, my android phone system is 6.0, i need download sdk Platform 6.0.
First, try to revoke the usb sessions in the developer options, then try downloading an oem usb driver
If then doesn’t help you can try opening the device manager on windows, right click on your phone, select uninstall. This worked for me if I had the same issue.
I couldn't find my android phone or any USB device I connect to my windows laptop on the hidden icons. Well, my mouse and phone could charge but I can't seem to see my phone in the File Explorer option.
I prefer running Apps using my phone rather than emulator in Android Studio and yet I couldn't see my phone when I connect using the USB.
This helped me solve all my problems after several hours of searching for solution.
Download Universal ADB Drivers - One size fits all Windows Drivers for Android Debug Bridge
Please use this link: https://adb.clockworkmod.com/
I hope this works for you like magic!
I can see all the devices I connect using the USB cable and my mouse receiver.
I have used my Samsung phone for running an android app(very basic app) once. I was trying to work on another app, but now, when I turn on the usb debugging in my phone and try running the new one, my phone doesn't show up in the CHOOSE A RUNNING ANDROID DEVICE list. I tried to run the previous app again, just to see if it works now, and surprisingly, it does ! I don't remember doing anything else other than turning on the usb debugging thing in my phone.
Any help would be appreciated :)
Thank you in advance.
be sure you have enabled usb debugging from your phone .....if yes follow this ..
First Install This Software on your pc then install apk on your phone
get it from here
http://www.mobogenie.com/product/mobogenie-pc.html
Try to enable ADB through command line tool .
For reference you can follow this link :See the link here
And if there is any further issues please comment below.
You need to install device driver for your Samsung devices After that you can restart your Eclipse & attach phone with usb.Now you can see the devices in devices list.
Connect phone by USB cable to your computer.Remember to set
android:debuggable="true"
in your AndroidManifest file
You'll also need "unknown sources" ticked under
Settings -> Application.
Try this link: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html
Connecting Your Own Device On Eclipse safely to run Application
I am trying to connect my android device on mac to test application I developed.
First I installed USB driver, then I activated in my phone the developer option by tapping on Build Number and then tick USB debugging option.
Once I did all those steps when I connect my android mobile, my Mac still not recognize my device.
Any idea to solve it?
Maybe it's your USB cable, try another one.
There are two types of USB cables:
for supplying power only
for supplying power and data
I after few research and testing of existing solutions, I found mine, my issue was released while I have installed Android file Transfer for Mac
I experienced the same problem with a Moto X and my Macbook Pro. I tried many of the suggestions (installed Android File Transfer, tried different usb ports on my computer, Settings => Storage => USB computer connection => toggled between MTP and PTP, etc.). None of these other recommendations helped.
It finally worked when I tried a different micro-usb cable.
Bizarre. You definitely want to first enable Developer Options first by going to Settings => About Phone => tapping Build number 7 times to display Developer Options. From there, you want to enable USB debugging.
I found this solution to be helpful to resolve this problem
Connect your Android to your Mac via USB.
Unlock your Android's screen. ...
Swipe down to open the Android Notification Panel.
Tap the USB option in the Notification Panel.
Tap "File transfer" or "MTP."
Click the Go menu and select "Applications."
Double-click "Android File Transfer."

I had this problem. The only solution was to reboot my computer. Then it started working again.
Just to add my experience here. I had a similar problem with my mac book pro and my Google Pixel 1 device. For me when running adb devices locally, I was no longer showing my device on the list. I would see any emulators I had running, but not my physical device.
My solution and steps:
Go to the "Settings App"
Go to "Developer Options"
Revoke USB debugging Authorizations
Toggle Developer Options off / on
My device then prompted me to allow debugging from my computer and everything continued to work as expected. adb devices resulted in showing my connected device.
Hopefully, this will help someone else if the above does not.
Make sure to have debugging by usb enable on your device.
It is an option inside "Developer options"
I've recently (2018) started to have this issue, and have found the only way to get my device connected is to use a USB hub. I have not been able to track down a root cause but will edit this answer if I can find a solution rather than a workaround.
I connected my Android deceive with my mac:
1) If you use Android studio, you may update to latest version of 1.0.2 or 1.1 preview, because lower version have some problem with ADB connection.
2) You may restart your IDE once again.
3) You may go to settings -- storage -- three docs on the right up corner -- USB computer connection -- enable MTP
I have an HTC U11 and a MacBook Pro (2017). It used to work most of the time, but I experienced issues with it once or twice. Then a restart of the Mac solved the problem.
Recently I was not able to USB debug. adb devices gave nothing, even though my phone said I'm USB debugging (even asked if I wanted to).
After trying many things the solution was to connect my phone and run HTC Sync Manager (I also had to update it). Then it magically started to woek.
I hope it helps somebody.
check your android sdk tools, install your sdk-plateform-tools package.then it is ok
For me what fixed the problem is
i clicked on the notification "USB for file transfer" in the
notification panel on the phone
Clicked on "Transferring images"
Than I clicked on "Transferring files / Android Auto" and it was fixed.
As title, I can't able to find my phone device into Eclipse.
I activated on the my phone, either Application/Unknown Source and Application/Development/Debug USB.
But into Eclipse not appear any device phone, why?
Thanks'
Go to the cmd prompt, and then take it to the platform-tools.
Then type the commands
adb kill-server
and then
adb start-server
Then to list the connected devices,
adb devices
you will see the list of active devices including the emulator. If the device is not present, continue the steps for some time..
After you get the device listed among the active ones, you can run it in debug mode.
Think, this will help you..! :)
I just had the same problem on 2 of my phones (Nexus 1 and Amaze 4G). After some research I found that people try to overcome this by restarting Eclipse and ADB (only Eclipse won't do) but it took me rebooting the system and phone to make it work again. If you can go to Eclipse->Window->Open Perspective->DDMS and see if your phone shows there with red bug icon next to your app. If so then try what I described above. If you don't see your device in DDMS perspective then it's your USB driver that is not working and needs to be reinstalled
Had a similar problem with my LG P520. In my case, the problem was as a result of me setting the minimum Android level to Android 2.3(9) while the phone was a Froyo/Android 2.2(8) phone. Hence, it was not a compatible device and would hence not be shown in list of compatible devices.
connect your PC with internet may be it will install some software to connect it with the phone debugger and make sure you enable the usb debugging on your phone.
I want to test my applications on LG P500 device. But emulator is not detecting the device. When i try to add USB driver which is there in SDK, it is not accepting . Please tel me how to configure Device for testing.
I struggled long and hard to get the correct USB driver installed for my P500. I ended up installing a few different things, and over the course of two or three reboots I managed to get it going.
I'm pretty sure the actual setup details you need can be found here (Note, this is the New Zealand section of the LG website - which is where I am, but it should work globally).
If you follow that, you should be able to install the USB driver. Once done, go to SETTINGS-APPLICATIONS-DEVELOPMENT on the phone and turn on USB Debugging and Stay Awake - these help when you are using the phone to test code.
You can test that its actually working by going into the Android SDK folder shown below and typing adb devices (in the directory shown, remove the (x86) if you are using 32-bit windows) - mine shows up as follows:
c:\Program Files(x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\adb devices
List of devices attached
80A354043044674101 device
I hope that helps - let me know if you are still having problems.
Change your phone settings to allow USB Debugging. Home->Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging. Then connect your phone and run ddms to see if your phone shows up.The emulator will not show your phone, but it should be recognized in DDMS
If some one trying to work on LG P500, Please follow the steps.
1> Connect your Phone to system.
2> Enable settings>SD Card & phone Storage > Mass storage only.
3> Now it will open the SD card. Go to PC suit dir, Install the application whc in turn contain USB drivers. After installation has completed desable mass storage only.
4> Change your phone settings to allow USB Debugging. Home->Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging as Apesa ans Steve suggested
(Even i hve installed LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_4.9.4_All.exe )Please let me knw wht exactly this driver will do . )
