Answer 1

I had this exact problem and solved it by downloading (http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html) and installing the Google USB Driver by hand.

Before I did that, I tried installing it from the Android SDK Manager which did not work. The package installed without error but my Device Manager showed a failure for an ADB Interface device.

After downloading/extracting the zip file from the above link, I updated the failed ADB Interface driver in Device Manager and now I can see and use my phone in both Android Studio and from the command line with adb.

I'm assuming that you have also enabled USB Debugging on your phone as detailed here: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/running-app.html#RealDevice
