Question

stack virgin, please be gentle.

Recently installed Eclipse w/ ADT bundle & adb cannot find my USB device (Motorola RAZR HD). I’ve run through the following so far:

1. adb kill-server -> adb start-server -> adb devices
2. uncheck/check usb debugging on device
3. restart device (both unplugged/plugged)
4. restart Eclipse
5. from IDE -> DDMS -> restart adb

Most of the posts here deal with the above. Others are Windows/Linux related.

I’m running OS X 10.7.5 & Android Developer Tools Build: v21.0.1-543035. The documentation found here:

http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html

… conveniently says “If you’re developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step.” When referring to setting up a hardware device. I typically agree with this statement, but in this case, it’s not helpful.

I am also running EasyTether Pro through the device and suspect the drivers for this application are the culprit but could be dead wrong. I am typically dead wrong ergo question here.

Anywho – if anyone has seen an issue with this particular device or has any magic to help that would be rad.

I would prefer not to reinstall Eclipse/ADT but if that gets the job done, so be it.

Answer 1

EasyTetherPro is the culprit. There are several articles online about this that I have now found.
