How to install adb

*MattisFine* · 08-02-2012, 01:57 AM

I am using clockwork mod tether on a motorola milestone two android version 2.2, I have already done
# ./configure
# make
# make install
# make test
make test comes up with error 1.
When I try to start the tether with:
# sudo /Tether/linux/run.sh
It says adb cannot detect device; I also have set my phone to usb debugging and charge only mode.
Anybody know what to do?

Did you installed Android SDK and then after running "tools/android" program downloaded platform tools? After that you probably need to create udev rule in "/etc/udev/rules.d":

Code:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0123", ATTR{idProduct}=="4567" OWNER="root", GROUP="root", MODE="0666"

where 0123 and 4567 are your Motorola device id (you can retrieve it fom "lsusb"). You can test adb connection by going to directory where it is installed (platform-tools) and invoking it by:

Code:

./adb devices
