This has been asked a lot. I can't get my device running with ADB on MacOSX. I know this is a software problem, because I can connect via the Samsung application Kies.

see

1) adb not finding my device / phone (MacOS X)

2) Android device is not recognized in adb

3) Why won't Eclipse/adb detect my Samsung Galaxy Tab device on my Mac?

Possible solutions of which none worked for me.

  1. start-server , kill-server
  2. USB-Debugging on?
  3. Add vendor ID to ./android/adb_usb.ini
  4. usb cable defect?
  5. add sdk path
  6. sudo kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext (?)
  7. Connect your device via USB hub instead of directly connecting to one of the usb ports on MAC.

details

OSX 10.8.0, Eclipse Juno (4.2.1), Android 4.0.3, apropriate SDK #15

Edit: Tried on Windows 7 also. Update firmware. Nothing working.

So finally I got it. I thought I was in debugging mode, because Android has this weird greyed out checkbox. I could activate USB testing mode, and now it is working.
