Acer Iconia Tab A100 not connected to XP - android-widget

I installed on PC/XP USB driver for Acer Tab A100 from acer.com
plugin A100 to PC
Hardware A100 regognized as ACER MTP
THEH:
"Cannot install this Hardware
There was a problem installing This hardware Acer MTP
An error occurred during the installation of the device
The required section was not found in the INF"
Please, explain where i'm wrong..
Thanks, Victor

I had some of the same problems on Win 7 x64. The solution boiled down to I went to Acer support and downloaded the USB drivers for the A500 and installed those. I can now see the device storage, the MicroSD storage on the device and connect with adb (currently debugging through the Eclipse plugin). So it looks like those drivers do the trick, I think their installer for the A100 USB drivers is just plain junk right now.
One problem remains: I was getting a .Net error with Acer Sync when I plugged in the device, but I really don't care about that, so I just uninstalled that bad boy.
Wasted the whole afternoon yesterday on the phone and chatting with Acer, don't make that mistake, when it comes to connecting up a dev environment they are clueless.

It´s the only way to connect it, installing USB drivers for the A500 requires you to have installed windows media player 11.

Vmware and Virtualbox issues with iphone device

Yo,
Anyone here use a VM (VirtualBox or VMware) and code on MacOS Catalina 10.15.x or Big Sur as guest ? Personally, I can't connect my iphone to xcode 11 and 12 (Iphone 5S: ios 14.4).
I tried multiple fix from the forum, as change the vmx file (skip-reset, skip-refresh, skip-setconfig" with the right pid and vid), set USB device to 2.0 (in VMware and VirtualBox), upgrade the IOS, but nothing was successful for now. However, the iphone is recognized and listed in the System information but nowhere else.
Somebody here have the same config and can use his iphone ? Had you do something in particular ?
Edit: The host is Windows 10
The only solution i found is to install "Catalina" and only Catalina, on VMware (with usb 2.0 of course). Don't use virtual box. Don't upgrade to big sur on Vmware lol. peace

How install driver for AcerIconia 500 on Windows 8 and Windows 10 to run device in Eclipse and Android Studio

Acer does not support Acer Iconia A500 drivers for new windows. This is great problem for Eclipse and Android Studio developers as me, because device is not visible for developing. I was looking for an hours for sollution. But found it ! Hope this helps for other developers with Iconia tablet.
This is step by step sollution:
connect ACER ICONIA 500 to your computer
connect ACER ICONIA 500 to your computer
look to the device list, tablet is marked as "unknown device"
manage the driver and manual set "select driver from list"
select type of device "Android device"
select "Google Nexus One ADB Interface"
Save and thats all, now tablet is visible in Eclipse and Android Studio
Windows 10 now automatically detects Acer Iconia A500 automatically when USB Debugging is enabled on the device.
Happy flashing!

Android emulator is very slow even after installing intel HAXM

my pc has 8 gb ram, intel i5-4rth gen , 2 gb nividia card.
win 7
my emulator of API 21 is very slow and laggy even after installing intel HAXM manually.
I have done everything that has been discussed here. please suggest me something.
In my case the problem was Avast's "Hardware assisted Virtualization". When I disabled it by going to Avast>Settings>Troubleshooting>Uncheck "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" and rebooted the PC emulator became super fast and responsive.
Uncheck "Enable hardware-assisted virtualization" from Avast>Settings>Troubleshooting
Reason: Only one software can use VT-x at a time. This is the reason why we have to disable Hyper-V before using HAXM.
If you are using another anti-virus or some software that is using Hardware virtualization feature, try disabling it.
I`m have same issue (i5, integrated video, W10x64), and today was found a way to fix:
add "-gpu guest" parameter to emulator.exe
Unfortunately, it should be started from a .bat file or command prompt.
Whole launch string look like
emulator #avd_name -accel on -gpu guest
Hope this helps
After the download from the SDK manager you have to launch the IntelHAXM.exe that you can find inside the Android SDK manager folder, precisely in
extras/intel/Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager

How do I use Xperia Ray through Eclipse for Android programming?

I downloaded the Suite for the phone, the Google USB drivers and the Phone's connection drivers. So far, the phone works perfectly with the PC but Eclipse still refuses to see the phone and Device Manager is convincing me that I have no hardware compatible with the Google USB drivers. Therefore the Google USB drivers are downloaded but not installed or assigned to any device. I followed every answer on stackoverflow that there is so far, but none have solved the problem.
First, set your device into USB / debug mode.
Second, after you connect your device to the USB make sure your drivers is installed properly.
And last verify that adb.exe can detect you device from cmd (if running in windows) ..(path to your SDK)\platform-tools\adb device
If last step fails, then re-install you device driver, it should be handled automatically by sony pc-companion for your xperia phone.
You also have to enable USB-Debugging in Settings->Developer Options on your phone.

Eclipse Doesn't Recognize my Android Device

I have the samsung galaxy tab, when I plug it into to eclipse to run and debug my apps. Eclipse doesn't recognize the device. When I try it with my friend's Droid 2 it still doesn't work. Can someone please help me?
If you are developing with Windows, you might need to install the USB driver for our device. For Windows 7, here's how you do it:
To install the Android USB driver on Windows 7 for your device:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Devices in the left pane.
Locate and expand Other device in the right pane.
Right-click the device name (such as Nexus S) and select Update Driver Software. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Select Browse my computer for driver software and click Next.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in \extras\google\usb_driver.)
Click Next to install the driver.
Check this link for more information if you need it.
Have you tried:
Settings -> Applications -> Development - Enable USB Debugging
In android 4.2.* The “Developer Options” menu item is gone!
Answer: The “Developer Options” menu item on 4.2.* is hidden.
Goto Settings -> About Phone.
Goto “Build Number” at the end of the Scroll list.
Tap on “Build Number” repeatedly (7 times). On your third tap you should see message indicating that you only have 4 more taps to go to ‘become a developer’.
Continue: 4 more taps.
Hooray, you are now a ‘Developer’, go back to the Setting page.
You should see Developer Option menu item in your setting list now.
Open Developer Options and check USB debugging > Ok
****it's work for me****

download the samsung software Kies .it detects samsung deivces
Go to http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html and follow up
this solution worked for me
In addition to Settings -> Applications -> Development - Enable USB Debugging, click on the following option:
Revoke USB debugging authorization
And then plug the device again.
Addition to Tor-Morten's answer: Only checking the Developer setting for USB debugging may not be enough. The USB connection setting (Android 4.4: Settings -> Storage -> Option Menu -> USB computer connection) needs to be checked for either "Media device" or "Camera" before it will be shown in Eclipse's Android Device Chooser window.
Maybe its a matter of how you plugged the device onto your computer. I'm using a mac and pluged the usb into one of the keyboard slots. It doesn't find anything even you've installed Kies with all its new drivers.
After plugging it directly into one of the slots at the computer the device has been recognized imediately.
Even it is a beginner mistake....maybe it helps :)
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 phone type. Secondly, you can download a different driver from another source like the phone manufacturer.
Make sure your account has admin privileges. I installed my Motorola drivers without elevating, and although the install ran smoothly it never associated them to the device. Once I ran as admin, worked like a charm.
Ι had the same problem:
While i had activated the debugging options on my phone (Samsung Galaxy S Duos Black), eclipse couldn't find the device because the usb drivers failed to download or something and so in the Device Manager (win7) i saw only Android and CSC something, all yellow and with no installed drivers.
I tried to download the Samsung drivers manually, but this failed to work.
What REALLY worked was downloading+installing Samsung Kies, connecting my device through usb and at first it failed again to put the drivers, then i disconnected the device, pressed some troubleshooting errors button that was on the main screen (NOT the lite version, the normal one), that took some time, re-connected the device and voila, the drivers were installed successfully and both the Device Manager and eclipse recognised the device.
If you are on Linux you can try on terminal the following steps. Don't forget to have your device plugged in. Use sudo if doest work.
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices (see if device is recognized)
I had the same problem with my LG G3 phone.
I tried to re-install the driver as explained here: http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html
Nothing helped. Fortunately on the very same page I have found the link to LG firmware site: http://www.lg.com/us/support/software-firmware
So I did the following:
Connect the phone to the PC using the USB cable
Uninstalled the Google's USB driver (My Computer->Management->Devices->Portable Devices->MyPhone: uninstall)
Download driver for my LG G3 phone (LG885) from the LG site
Install this driver
Got on the phone screen request to approve the new RCA key and allow debugging.
Try to Run an Android project in Eclipse.
PROBLEM SOLVED.
I Had the same problem.
I saw that the product was correctly defined under Device Manager, but Eclispe did not show the product in the target.
The easy way was to install Samsung Kies and to see that the following command:
...eclipse\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\platform-toolsadb\adb device
gives me some output instead of only "List of devices attached".
once it recognizes the product, use "run configuration" choosing target "Active devices" under "Launch on all compatible devices/AVD's" radio button.
still, you don't get the product on the list as expected but it works.
Good Luck!
I had the same problem on windows with my samsung galaxy device .. installing samsung kies solved the problem for me.
I had loads of problem getting this to work when I switched to a new computer.
I downloaded and installed Kies, but Windows 7 still didn't recognize my device.
My problem was the proxy my company use, Kies tries to download USB drivers in the installation, but fails silently and finishes the installation.
You might have this problem if your USB Driver folder in the installation is empty (i.e C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\USB Driver).
Solution for me: install Kies without a proxy.
Unload EasyTether extension.
This worked for me - look at the part about unloading the EasyTether extension. adb not finding my device / phone (MacOS X) I was able to connect my samsung galaxy note 2 to macbook pro snow leopard.
Download new USB driver for samsung/pc connection here:
http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows
After enabling developer mode and USB debugging of course.
The phone should ask to accept the pc location as secure after USB driver upgrade.
Installing KIES did not fix the problem on my Galaxy Note 3.
