Android SDK not recognizing debug-able device

Question

I\'m new to Android development, and am attempting to run a test application on my actual device. I followed the instructions at http://developer.android.com/guide/developin

Answer 1

I followed the steps suggested by Neil Han, but adb still could not recognize my tablet (cheap chinese device - Freelander PD10).

what solved this problem for me was restarting adb as superuser:

adb kill-server
sudo adb start-server
