Running adb as root is necessary if you don't get the USB permissions set up right. For example: % lsusb [...] Bus 005 Device 009: ID 0bb4:0c02 High Tech Computer Corp. % ls -l /dev/bus/usb/005/009 crw-rw-r-- 1 root plugdev 189, 520 Jan 5 12:59 /dev/bus/usb/005/009 Note it's read-write for group "plugdev", of which I'm a member. This stuff is set up by the /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules changes described on http://code.google.com/android/intro/develop-and-debug.html#developingondevicehardware, but I've heard that on some systems a later set of rules overrides those and you have to tweak it to make it work right. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
