Can't connect LG G3 to Android Studio


My LG G3 is not appearing in the device list for android studio. I'm on ASUS n550jk with Windows 10.

Things I have done:

  • USB Debugging Mode
  • Media sync(MTP)
  • Camera (PTP)
  • Google USB Drivers from Android SDK Manager
  • LG USB Drivers
  • Switching USB ports
  • Restarting PC

Nothing has worked. I got it to work a few months ago on Windows 8.1, but I can't remember what I did.


Solution

  • Make sure you enable developer options on your phone and check 'Enable USB Debugging'

    On your Phone... Go to your settings: Go to "about phone" Tap on "Build Number" 7 times. This enables developer options Go to Developer options (in the settings app) Check - Enable USB Debugging Did you make sure to install the adb drivers for your phone? Also make sure you have enabled debug mode on your device. If neither of those are the issue, maybe check here for further troubleshooting help.

    When you connect your phone to your computer with Android studio running, you should see a dialog box asking for permission for your computer to debug your phone. Tap Yes and accept those permissions.

    You should be set from there! Hit 'Run' in Android Studio and you should be good to go.
