I am complete novice on adb. When it comes to Android I could be classified as "dumb user" - trying however to get one level up, hence playing with adb:
$ ./adb shell error: device not found $ ./adb devices * daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 * * daemon started successfully * List of devices attached
Looks like adb cannot see the connected device.
How to rectify the problem?
For your info:
- the device is visible and I can copy files to/from it
- I went through the steps suggested below and still no luck
- I tried connecting the phone to different USB ports - my comp has 2 USB controllers - one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0
Steps to enable USB debugging on my device with 7.0 Nougat Android:
- Go to "Configuration"
- Go to "About Telephone / Android 7.0"
- Click several times "Build Number" until message "You're now developer" appears
- Go back to "Configuration" - "{} Developer options" are now visible - go inside
- A number of fabulous options appear - switch-on "USB Debugging"
I am using Linux and I would prefer to stay away from Windows.
Still no luck - device not found
