ADB not recognizing device anymore


I have already asked about this problem, and still haven't found the solution but i got more leads, so i'll try to explain it as quick as possible:

I have a windows 7 64-bit laptop, using eclipse platform and I want to test my app on DataLogic DL_AXIST android 4.1.1 device.

  • This android device shows on all other pcs and adb but mine.
  • The first time this device's driver was installed on my pc, my adb showed it but not anymore for unknown reason.
  • Device is connected as MTP, driver installed correctly, I tried all other pc connections available --> it shows in my computer but not on adb!!!
  • I even created adb_usb.ini file in .android folder and added HEX hardware ID of device and still doesn't work.
  • Debugging mode on device is running, i have restarted ADB as well.

Please if anyone knows another method do tell me i'm losing my mind


Solution

  • ADB requires that the USB debugging tool be paired with the Computer.

    In Config -> Developer Options, uncheck the "USB debug mode", unplug the USB cable, check "USB debug mode" again, then replug the USB cable, a prompt stating "Do you trust this XY:AB:CD:EF device" and allow it for a new connection.

    edit

    If the prompt for pairing was not triggered, revoke all debbuging permissions (in the same screen), and redo the activation process.

    I am sorry that, my devices are in another non-english language, so I do not know the way its probably spelt in english.
