adb (android debug bridge) problems after OSX Yosemite upgrade

Question

I've upgraded my 2011 13inch Macbook yesterday to yosemite.

Now i am experiencing problems with the adb tool (1.0.31, 1.0.32) e.g. when installing a build on the device, copying a file via ddms. From eclipse, android studio and the command line the same performance, around 80 kb/s. 85 KB/s (68736634 bytes in 788.742s)

Tested with a samsung and an htc device, no big differences.

Copying files to the devices with the Android File Transfer App behaves normally!

Anyone here where this is working properly or anyone experiencing the same? Thinking about downgrading to Mavericks.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: With a clean new install of yosemite I don't have this problem. After migrating my Time Machine backup it appears again, even deleting all sdks, eclipse, android studio did not solve it so far.

Answer 1

I had the exact same issue on my 2012 Macbook after updating to Yosemite. It turned out the problem was caused by an old version of VMWave Fusion, but unfortunately just deleting it didn't help. I did a clean install (deleting the drive first) of Yosemite, and installed all apps (apart form VMWare) manually - restoring time machine wasn't helping.

If you have VMWare/VirtualBox or similar, maybe you can try removing those.
