Android 4.3 Eclipse Android Device Chooser states version unknown


I recently upgraded my Samsung Galaxy Nexus via an OTA update to 4.3. After doing the update, I am unable to install new debug software, because the "Target" is set to UNKNOWN. I have tried the following tricks that have been shown to work:

  1. Reboot phone
  2. Turn on/off debugging on phone
  3. Restart Eclipse
  4. Updating SDK tools (Both ADT and plugin)

I never had this problem when I was with 4.2, so I suspect is has something to do with the upgrade, but I'm not sure. Any thoughts?


Solution

  • Turns out a combination of things did the trick.

    1. On the device, go to the debug options (Debug activity in notifications)
    2. Revoke USB debugging information
    3. Restart Eclipse
    4. Look for a pop-up on the device asking for permission to connect to the device. Give it permission.

    That seemed to do the trick.
