I have an app that's running on Android 2.1 I want to keep one code base and declare different folders for different resolutions for Android 3.2 tablets.

I've read this link: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html and this: http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html#setting-up

The problem is that when I "Run" in Eclipse to Build/Compile/Run, it does not show the Sony Tablet S.

  • Yes I have USB Debugging enabled on the Sony Tablet S
  • Yes I have loaded this app to a phone before (Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket) and the Skyrocket shows in the Device Chooser
  • Yes my Android SDK / AVD and Eclipse ADT should be up to date, I JUST updated it and even restarted the computer.
  • Yes I've tired using different USB cables/ports (my Skyrocket works fine with this app)
  • my target OS is Android 2.1 ... but all I wanted to do was make the UI compatible with Android 3.2 or a 10" tablet

I'm using a Mac.

  • I am on OSX, and most of the time adb finds my devices. There are times when this does not work. For example, the Kindle Fire is not automatically detected on OSX. I have to open up my ~/.android/adb_usb.ini and add 0x1949, then kill and restart adb server. Maybe Sony has published a usb identifier that must be manually added as well? – Shellum Mar 02 '12 at 22:13

You need to add this line to your ~/.android/adb_usb.ini file:

0x054c

This really is nothing to do with your app and is strictly that your computer isn't finding the device for some reason. See these other related questions. Useful suggestions from among them are:

  • Set your device to charge only USB mode
  • Make sure EasyTether is not installed on your Mac.

Hopefully your problem can be fixed with one of these.

  • From what I experienced, Macbook's do not need the drivers (it also says you can skip the driver installation in the Android Dev Guide). Thanks though! – faul Mar 03 '12 at 00:38
