adb devices command not working
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. I have ia32-libs installed along with Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.26.
My problem(s):
adb devices
>>> ???????????? no permissionssudo adb devices
>>>> sudo: adb: command not foundadb shell
>>> error: insufficient permissions for device
I guess these are all related. Here's the relevant info.
$ echo $PATH
/home/me/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools:/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools
$ which adb
/opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools/adb
$ adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
$ sudo adb devices
sudo: adb: command not found
$ adb shell
error: insufficient permissions for device
I get the same results with a rooted Moto Droid running CM6.1 and a rooted G-Tab running a CM7-based ROM.
I have reviewed the following related 开发者_JS百科posts:

- adb command not found in linux environment
I tried most (not all) of the suggestions and I have not been able to resolve my issue. The things I didn't try seemed inappropriate. I would appreciate a few more tips and I'll keep troubleshooting.
One thing I didn't try was editing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules. Is that likely to be the issue? I can't see how that would cause "sudo: adb: command not found". Maybe my problems are not all related. Anyway, at this point I think I need some input from other people because I don't believe I have a path problem or the other common problems discussed in those other posts.
EDIT: SOLVED thanks to EboMike and RivieraKid. This was actually two different problems:
Item #2 above (sudo: adb: command not found) was solved by making a symlink as follows:
$ sudo ln -s /opt/android-sdk-linux_x86/platform-tools/adb /usr/local/sbin/adb
That allowed me to then do as EboMike suggested and use this solution. Doing that was required for my Moto Droid. (Running adb as sudo was not required for my Viewsonic G-Tablet, however.)
My other two items were resolved by implementing the udev rule as RivieraKid suggested (from this link).
One thing I didn't try was editing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules. Is that likely to be the issue?
Any particular reason why you didn't do that? To answer the question - YES! The udev rules are what informs Ubuntu what your device is and allows user-space tools to therefore access it.
You will not be able to use adb without correctly following the instructions.
With that in mind however, you don't say what version of Ubuntu you're using but I had issues with 10.10 - let me know if you need me to post the contents of my rules file.
Don't worry about running adb via sudo, you don't need it. The MODE="0666"
from the udev rule allows you to access the device as any user.
EDIT:
Don't forget to reload the rules:
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
EDIT #2:
As @Jesse Glick correctly points out, if adb is already running in daemon mode, you'll also need to restart it for this to work:
sudo adb kill-server
I've used sudo here, since that will guarantee that adb will be killed , and it's the officially supported method to stop the server. It will be automatically restarted the next time adb is used, but this time with the correct environment.
You need to restart the adb server as root. See here.
On my Gentoo/Funtoo linux system I am having similar problems:
I gotting always not the correct device description and insufficient permissions:
# sudo ./adb devices
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
# ./adb usb
error: insufficient permissions for device
For me helps the howto from Google. In my case I needed to add the udev rule:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
and setting up the filesystem rights
# chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
After replugging my smartphone the access to the phone was successful, it also appears now in Eclipse' Android Device Chooser:
# sudo ./adb devices
List of devices attached
3XXXXXXXXXXXXXC device
# sudo ./adb usb
restarting in USB mode
You also have to check the membership of your user to the plugdev-group.
Every answer I've read indicates the SUBSYSTEM=="usb"
. However, my (perhaps ancient) udev needed this to be changed to DRIVER=="usb"
. At last I can run the adb server as a non-root user... yay.
It can be instructive to look at the output of udevmonitor --env, followed by the output of
udevinfo -a -p <DEVICE_PATH_AS_REPORTED_BY-udevmonitor>
Please note that IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA tend to start their own adb-server.
Even manually killing the server and running an new instance with sudo won't help here until you make your IDE kill the server itself.
restarting the adb server as root worked for me. see:
derek@zoe:~/Downloads$ adb sideload angler-ota-mtc20f-5a1e93e9.zip

I fixed this issue on my debian GNU/Linux system by overiding system rules that way :
mv /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules
I used contents from files linked at : http://rootzwiki.com/topic/258-udev-rules-for-any-device-no-more-starting-adb-with-sudo/
HTC One m7 running fresh Cyanogenmod 11.
Phone is connected USB and tethering my data connection.
Then I get this surprise:
cinder@ultrabook:~/temp/htc_m7/2015-11-11$ adb shell
error: insufficient permissions for device
cinder@ultrabook:~/temp/htc_m7/2015-11-11$ adb devices
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
SOLUTION: Turn tethering OFF on phone.
cinder@ultrabook:~/temp/htc_m7/2015-11-11$ adb devices
List of devices attached
HT36AW908858 device
I just got the same situation, Factory data reset worked well for me.
