How to Set Up HTC Incredible with Ubuntu 8.10 for Android Debugging
Friday, October 1st, 2010I followed all of the instructions on this page. I chose the options for Hardy even though Ubuntu 8.10 isn’t listed.
After following the instructions and running the commands below I unplugged the phone and plugged it back in and restarted Eclipse. It found the phone and loaded my app when I selected “run as” and Android Application.
$ cd /etc/udev/rules.d/
$ sudo touch 51-android.rules
$ sudo nano 51-android.rules
$ sudo chmod a+r 51-android.rules
Before reconnecting attached phone I saw this:
$ adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
After reconnecting I saw this:
$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT06SHJ01574 device
Note: Originally I had expected the phone to simply work with Eclipse but I got this error message before doing the above steps:
Automatic Target Mode: Unable to detect device compatibility. Please select a target device.
