Android ADB doesn't see device

Question

I'm trying to run my applications on OMEGA T107 tablet. But adb doesn't see my device. I tried almost everything.

Answer 1

Some of these answers are pretty old, so maybe it's changed in recent times, but I had similar issues and I solved it by:

1. Loading the USB drivers for the device - Samsung S6
2. Enable Developer tools on the phone.
3. On the device, go to Settings - Applications - Development - Check USB Debugging
4. Reboot O/S (Windows 7 - 64bit)
5. Open Visual Studio

I think it was step 3 that had me stumped for a while. I'd enabled developer tools, but I didn't specifically enable the "USB Debugging" but.

Answer 2

Uninstalling all old "Android ADB Interface" drivers that were installed previously and then installing the new one worked for me.

Answer 3

It worked for me in my Astro Tab A737 Download and install PdaNet+ from http://pdanet.co/a/ in your computer.

follow all steps in the wizard while installing .Once the drivers are installed Android studio should recognize the tablet.

Also, make sure the device is in PTP mode.

Answer 4

For Windows 8 64 bit with a Nexus 10 device, this worked for me:

Answer 5

The normal way to fix this is indeed to restart the adb server :

adb kill-server
adb start-server

then

adb devices -l 

should list connected devices

But it possible that it doesnt fix the problem. It appends to me.

I had to disable/enable the debug mode on the device, and then restart adb server.

On windows, you will need to install drivers for the device for adb to recognize it. To see if the drivers are installed, check the device manager. If there is any "unrecognized device" in the device manager, the drivers are not installed. You can usually get the adb drivers from the manufacturers.
