I am developing an Android app and need to test it on multiple devices.

However, adt (and, by extension, Eclipse) seem to give them a "default" id 0123456789ABCDEF. When deploying my app to the device, Eclipse complains: more than one device.

I've managed to get a distinct id read for each device:

$ ./adb devices -l
List of devices attached
0123456789ABCDEF       device usb:14110000
0123456789ABCDEF       device usb:14122000
0123456789ABCDEF       device usb:14121000
0123456789ABCDEF       device usb:14123000
0123456789ABCDEF       device usb:14124000

But I can't manage to use this device usb:XXXXX string anywhere to point Eclipse to the terminal I want to launch the app on.

Currently my solution is to connect only one device at a time, but this is very cumbersome. Does anybody know how can I either change a device ID or make Eclipse refer to the correct one when all of them are connected at the same time?

Thanks a lot

Okay, here's the solution, thanks a lot for the provided references:

As stated here, I needed to recompile adb

First, download Android source code as stated in the official instructions. Then, modify adb as stated in the previous link. Finally, restart the adb server, and you will see a different string for each phone, which then can be used to open a shell, deploy .apk, etc.
