No, you don't need this to run an app, but anyone doing development will definitely need to do some debugging throughout the process. Having a beginner get it right from the beginning instead of questioning why they can debug the app later is a good thing, IMO. In most cases this should go "Settings > Applications > Development > USB > Debugging," and the menu key is not involved. You can get to the Settings by pressing the MENU key on the Home screen. The instructions do miss that it's Settings that you select from the MENU options, not Applications, but it's another valid way of getting to the settings indicated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
