Any ideas where I can begin to find out what's going wrong?
I have a T-Mobile Pulse Mini (Huawei) which I'd like to get working for developing and testing apps on. I can't get it to be seen by Android Debug Bridge despite restarting the adb server. (and emulators are seen by adb any way so that's unlikely to be the problem).
In the device manager the phone is displayed as a CD-ROM and when I select 'transfer files' from the auto 'PcOptions.exe' it is then displayed as a USB driver but in either case I can't see it in adb. I have enabled debugging on the phone. I remember it took me ages to get it to work on my previous Vista 32-bit. I can't figure out where to search from here. The drivers used to install the phone are on the phone itself.
Thanks very much.
Drivers. If you can't see the phone in ADB, it's almost always a driver issue and this is especially common on Windows. The regular user drivers are sometimes different from the ADB drivers. If you can find the OEM dev drivers directly that's ideal, otherwise there's a way to modify the INF file which you'll have to Google for unless someone else provides it, as I don't remember the details at the moment.
