Check if you don't have 2 or more Eclipse IDEs open (if that is your IDE of choice). It is possible that one of those is taken control over the parts of the ADB and refusing the others access. In my case, I experienced the same error, but when I closed every other Eclipse instance, the app started in debug mode immediately.
