How to run or debug on android phone instead of emulator?

Question

Android emulator is so slow that it is not possible to test run applications. Is there anyway to debug/run applications on real phone with IDE instead of emulator?

Answer 1

I realize the context is for Windows, but I had the same issue on Linux (Fedora). Creating a new file in /etc/udev/rules.d/ was necessary (and restarting adb as Hyperboreus indicates).

This is indicated clearly at http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html.

fwiw
