I'm using the Eclipse IDE.
I can only see question marks in the Android Device Chooser; where I'd usually find numbers. it's like I didn't add udev rules for the device
I tried with an HTC Inspire and it worked fine, logcat also worked fine but not with this newer Handset.
It works fine on windows but i prefer developing on linux; Ubuntu 11.04 to be more specific
this is my output from $lsusb
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

and Here's the contents of my "rules" file a.k.a. $sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"
I don't understand why it works fine with the older HTC handset but not with this newer one.
i got this help from XDA developers forum
i just added these few lines to my /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules and I was wired in :D
