Eclipse Doesn't Recognize my Android Device - eclipse

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.

No USB devices android studio 3.1.3

I used to run my application in VIVO Y51L device. It's showing as No USB devices detected.
Developer options and USB debugging is ON, but it is still not detecting. What should I do??
This is probably due to improper driver installation or adb. Although this should not have happened if you had it working earlier re-installing the drivers should fix this. I'd recommend you to download and run the 15 second adb installer. It would install adb system-wide and also give you an option to re-install the required google drivers.
Installing them should fix this. You can verify that your device is connected by opening the command prompt and typing adb devices. It should kill the daemon and restart it. Once you switch back to Android Studio and run it. Your device should show up there.
Good Luck.

Nexus 5 doesn't show in eclipse

I have some problems to connect nexus 5 with eclipse.
I am using windows 8.1 and I have installed the nexus drivers from google_usb->http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
I can see my device in ADB(using adb -devices) and in DDMS on eclipse, but I can't send apps to debbug it, just nexus doesn't appear in target in eclipse.
In Device Manager my nexus appear like Android Composite ADB Device
I have the developer options enabled and USB debugging too.

EDIT:
I only just tested with android studio and it works, but I don't understand why in eclipse doesn't work
Make sure it says connected as a media device. If it says connected as a camera, tap to change the USB options and check the "connect as a media device" check box.

Eclipse program not working

Hello I'm creating an Android project using Eclipse the emulator is very slow I tried using the emulator through my phone but it still wont work I have a Kyocera Event and android 4.0
software anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem so I can run the emulator through my phone?
Try to use HAXM if you have an Intel processor and a different image of the system rather than ARM. I had similar problem with debugging using my tablet, I would highly recommend HAXM.
Did you enable USB Debugging in your phone settings? And check SDK Manager - Extra - Google USB Driver
I have been using real devices to test my apps, and if you dont know, your device might not be recognized by your IDE even though it is picked up by your computer. The solution, first, click http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html
scroll down to the bottom, locate the manufaturer of your phone and download the appropriate driver for your device, install it, then, you need to open the "SDK Manager" to download the system images for the platforms you want to test against, you might need to download the "Google USB Driver" in the "Extras" section in "SDK Manager". Or if you want an emulator that is as fast as a real device, consider "Geny Motion", pretty easy to install. You can search for "Geny Motion" through google, shoule be able to see it the first result. Hope this helps.

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.

Why doesn't Eclipse see my Samsung Galaxy phone even though I can transfer files using a drive letter?

I developed my first (small) Andoid application using Eclipse and are now ready to transfer it to my Galaxy S mobile device (develping for Android 2.1)
Following another thread in SE, I changed the run mode in Eclipse to manual in the hope that I would be able to chose my phone and/or AVD every time I run the program.
The popup list howerver only show the AVD, my phone is not present in the list.
So obviously, my Samsung Galaxy S device is not recognized. Howerver, I can transfer to and from the device using a drive letter, so the USB connection is working properly.
Anyone any idea what I am missing here ? I'm not sure if it is an Eclipse problem , or a driver or ....
You have to put the phone in 'debug' mode - I don't have the instructions handy (but you can search here or on the android site for the info you need)
I experienced the same issue with Eclipse on a Mac OS X. Simply putting the phone in 'debug' mode (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging) did not solve the issue. I have to do below in the command line to solve the issue.
sudo adb kill-server
sudo adb start-server
I faced the problem of eclipse not detecting my xperia x10.I installed sony ericson PC companion, the problem is fixed now. Seems some drivers specific to the manufacturer of the device is required.
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 "Manuals & Downloads" and then "Software" under that.
I was having problems connecting to my S5 from my Linux laptop (after enabling USB Debugging) - I found this guy's post really helpful!
