Android Studio: Android Device Monitor not showing my device

Question

My real device is Sony Xperia c6502 with android version 4.3 I'm sure I connect it to my computer and I turn Developer options/ USB debugging on

In SDK manager, Google USB driver is already installed.

I downloaded Xperia Z Driver from this page:http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/ But I don't know how to use it

No PTP mode option in USB Connectivity in my phone

My device is not shown in Android Device Monitor and thus I can't run app test on my phone.

How to let my Android Studio catch my phone?

Try pluggin & unplugging it several times until you get message on your phone `Trust this computer?` — agamov, Jul 30 '15 at 07:10
@JeanYang Try to manually start `adb` server before plugging your phone to the computer. Check if it is able to detect your phone. — boxed__l, Jul 30 '15 at 07:17

Some possible solutions:

On your notification bar, expand it and click the connection. Then select connect as Camera (PTP) (not as media device)
Try with another USB cable.
~~Go to your SDK manager and install Google USB Driver~~ (I see you updated your answer regarding this)
Follow the instructions on OEM USD Drivers

On my notification bar, I expand it and click the connection, but nothing popup or happened My Google USB driver is already installed. Not working – Jean Y.C. Yang Jul 30 '15 at 07:22
Check your connection is PTP and not MTP (http://www.howtogeek.com/192732/android-usb-connections-explained-mtp-ptp-and-usb-mass-storage/) – Logain Jul 30 '15 at 07:24
There are only two options: Media transfer mode(MTP) and Mass storage mode(MSC). What should I do? I select MSC and it is still not working – Jean Y.C. Yang Jul 30 '15 at 07:26

I tried all the possible solutions given above but cannot detect my device. Finally, I come to know device drivers are not installed.

You can install it like: Go to Tools > Android > SDK Manager> SDK Tools > Google USB drivers.

Make sure it's installed.

Do a CTRL+ALT+DEL and bring up the task manager. Look for ADB.EXE and end task it.

Sometimes it will hang and prevent device enumeration.
