adb over usb (Ubuntu host machine)

Mahendra Gunawardena

Hardware: AM335x Sitara development kit

Software Platforms:

Window 7 (Host Machine)
Virtual Box (VM)
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Guest OS)

I have followed the TI-Android-JB developer guide sections adb over USB but I am unable to get the results as mentions.

When I perform an "adb devices" on the target machine I get only "List of device attached" no devices.
When I perform an "adb devices" of the host machine I get "List of device attached" "?????? no permission". I also executed the command as sudo.

Any thoughts

Hi,

Please try running "lsusb" command on your host machine without having your device plugged in. Then plug it in and run the command again - there will be a new entry in the list.

This entry should look like this:

Bus *** Device ***: ID ABCD:EFGH ********************************************

Please copy the "ABCD" part of the output and put it inside $HOME/.android/adb_usb.ini file (create it if it doesn't exist) like this:

0xABCD

Then restart the adb server and try again.

Best regards,
Miroslav

I believe the key is to start the adb server as sudo (on Ubuntu 12.04)

Thanks
