I recently bought an android tv box (dongle) model mk808b plus which some of you might be familiar with. What I want to do is use it for development, I want to program on it using adb, Android Studio.
The problem I am facing and its not the first of its kind, I get this with all the media boxes that I tried, they dont work as adb devices at all, I dont get any device in my device manager when I connect them on the usb (not even an unknown one). I tried reflashing the android, I put cyanogen mod on it, but to no avail, it still happens. Another thing is, if I put my device in Recovery Mode it does detect an unknown device in my control panel, but never after I boot up my android os.
Now before you say I didnt enable Developer Options Usb Debugging or I didnt put my device as MTP device, I did. I checked these and the cables im using are fine.
I dont have any problem with my Nexus 5 or S5 for the matter, just when I try these android boxes that come up with these tv like custom roms.
If you guys have any idea, I'll be happy to read, I did not find anything related to this on the internet.
PS: Why not use my Nexus 5 or S5? because the app im developing is for these boxes, so testing some of the features such as hdmi connectivity etc etc is very useful to me.
Thank you, Andi
Unfortunately I couldn't do anything, maybe it's because of the custom ROM on it, but I did find an alternative, I'm using adb on tcp ip, it seems to work after I rooted my device, still no usb adb interface.
