How to install the android ADB driver in Linux

Overview

Recently, due to the large number of built-in partners, many Android mobile phones of many manufacturers in my Ubuntu system cannot be correctly identified. After some hard work, I checked the SDK, now we have sorted out the ADB driver configuration methods in Linux and solutions to the problems encountered in them and contributed them to you.

Connect to ADB for Android in Mobile USB debugging mode in LinuxProgramThe configuration driver is not intuitive in windows.

Procedure

First confirm that the mobile phone is connected to the computer, lsusb to view the device records.

Here I am:

Create a configuration file 51-android.rules under/etc/udev/rules. d /.

 
Sudo Vim /Etc/Udev/Rules. d/50-Android. Rules
 

Add the following configuration parameters to the file:

 
Subsystem="USB", Sysfs{"High Tech Computer Corp ."}="0bb4",Mode="0666"
 

Save, Set permissions for the configuration file

Sudo ChmodA + RX/Etc/Udev/Rules. d/50-Android. Rules
 

Restart

 
Sudo /Etc/Init. d/Udev restart
 

Then restart the ADB service. (If NO environment variable is configured, go to the android SDK tools directory and run sudo./ADB kill-server./ADB devices)

 
SudoADB kill-ServerSudoADB Devices

Sysfs parameters:

Sysfs{"Idvendor"}="XXX"

The sysfs parameter in the Linux ADB driver configuration file refers to the device vendor. Because it was a mobile phone made by HTC for Google, "High Tech Computer Corp." was first written on the official website .". But now, a group of mobile phone manufacturers, such as Moto, Sony Ericsson, and Samsung, have joined more than HTC. What should I do if the device model is not 0bb4?

When reading the SDK help documentation, I found that the SDK has provided instructions:
(For details, see Docs/GUIDE/developing/device.html)

if you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development. each device manufacturer uses a different vendor ID. the example rules files below show how to add an entry for a single vendor ID (the HTC vendor ID ). in order to support more devices, you will need additional lines of the same format that provide a different value for the sysfs {idvendor} property. for other IDs, see the Table of USB vendor IDs, below.

1. log in as root and create this file:/etc/udev/rules. d/51-android.rules.

for gusty/hard, edit the file to read: [Note: Ubuntu 7.10 and later versions]
subsystem = "USB ", sysfs {idvendor }== "0bb4", mode = "0666"

for dapper, edit the file to read: [Note: Ubuntu 6.06 and earlier versions]
subsystem = "usb_device ", sysfs {idvendor }== "0bb4", mode = "0666"
2. now execute:
chmod A + R/etc/udev/rules. d/51-android.rules

Follow the instructions to change 0bb4 in the 51-android.rules file to the corresponding USB vendor ID.
For example, my mobile phone is Motorola and idvender is 22b8.
So this line is

 
Subsystem="USB", Sysfs{Idvendor}="22b8",Mode="0666"
 

However, you can write multiple lines to use various devices. For example, I wrote all the following:

 # ACS 0502   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor} = "0502" , Mode = "0666"   
# Dell 413c   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "413c" , Mode = "0666"  
# Foxconn 0489   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "0489" , Mode = "0666"   
# Garmin-Asus 091e   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor} = "091e" , Mode = "0666"   
# HTC 0bb4   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "0bb4" , Mode = "0666"  
# Huawei 12d1   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "12d1" , Mode = "0666"  
 # Kyocera 0482   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor} = "0482" , Mode = "0666"   
# LG 1004   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "1004" , Mode = "0666"  
# Motorola 22b8   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "22b8" , Mode = "0666"   
# NVIDIA 0955   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor} = "0955" , Mode = "0666"   
# Pantech 10a9   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "10a9" , Mode = "0666"  
# Samsung 04e8   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "04e8" , Mode = "0666"  
 # Sharp 04dd   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor} = "04dd" , Mode = "0666" 
 # Sony Ericsson 0fce   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "0fce" , Mode = "0666"  
# ZTE 19d2   Subsystem = "USB" , Sysfs { Idvendor } = "19d2" , Mode = "0666" 

However, the above IDs cannot include all of them. The usb id of a device is not listed above.
You can use the lsusb command to view your usb id.

Find the above ID as 18a1 and add the device to the file.

Subsystem="USB", Sysfs{Idvendor}="18a1",Mode="0666"
 

Modify/etc/udev/rules. d/51-android.rules. You do not need to restart the Linux machine and re-plug the device. Run ADB devices again to see that your device is connected.
