[Tutorial] ADB on (X)ubuntu

[BeeGee_Tokyo]

You have a problem with ADB on your (X)Ubuntu? "ADB not found", "No Device connected" even you set USB debugging?

I got the same problems when I started to play around with Xubuntu.

So I wrote a tutorial how to get ADB running properly under my Xubuntu installation.

Maybe it helps some people.

ADB on (X)ubuntu

 

[yani2000]

I've enabled "USB debugging" under Settings-->Applications-->Development.
And when I directly connect the USB cable to my Ubuntu machine "lsusb" shows nothing.
I also get no USB icon in notification area on my tablet.
What am I doing wrong?!
Please help!

Worked beautifully

Thanks for the adb tutorial. I am running xubuntu on an old Dell Inspiron 1318.

Some tips I found help:
1. I used leafpad to create the 51_android... File
2. I added both "0x1949" and "1949" vendor IDs
3. As soon as I did this adb recognized my device in TWRP with a regular usb cable.
4. I had to execute each adb command with the "./" prefix, state such as "./adb devices"
5. I side loaded cm10 zip and rebooted in TWRP
6. Then I side loaded gapps zip and rebooted

Voila!

Thanks Hascode, PowerPoint 45, and others!
