adb will not recognise my galaxy s

galaxys212 · December 26th, 2010, 12:25 PM

When i type adb devices into the command prompt i simply get list of devices attached and nothing else, the list is blank. I think i have done everything else right, im only a begginer at rooting but i have uninstalled and reinstall adb and my drivers, my computer and kies will connect to it no problem and i have made sure ive got the android composite adb interface but still no luck.

Any help is appreciated thankyou

the phone has to be on "USB debugging" and you have to be in the SDK/tools directory on the command prompt.

my phone was in debugging and i tried navigating to the tools folder but same result i get this:

*daemon not running. starting it now*
*daemon started successfully*
list of devices attached

and it does not recognise that my phone is attached

do you have kies installed? if you don't, make sure you do that.

Not sure if adb works if Kies is running in the background. Have you tried ending KIEs?

So, we install but don't run it?

I'm having same issue. "hello, android" app works fine on emulator, and the emulator shows up in response to 'adb devices'.

But same app won't load to my galaxy s, and the phone is not visible to 'adb devices'

My setup is:
- windows XP SP2
- Samsung kies is not installed
- Google USB 4 drivers installed
- Samsung Galaxy Tab add ons
- USB debugging on phone is ON
- debugging is 'true' in manifest
- eclipse + SDK + ADK

I don't think I've installed "Android adb composite interface" mentioned at start of this thread. Where can I find it?

I'm an Android newbie, so I'm assuming many have successfully loaded apps to Galaxy S using eclipse. Is this correct?

You need to install KIEs, but try what happens if it's not running in the background. It might interfere with Eclipse. I have loaded Hello World to Galaxy S before (by accident actually. I had my phone plugged in with debug mode on. Instead of loading the emulator, eclipse just loaded it on my phone instead.)
