My real device is Sony Xperia c6502 with android version 4.3 I'm sure I connect it to my computer and I turn Developer options/ USB debugging on
In SDK manager, Google USB driver is already installed.
I downloaded Xperia Z Driver from this page:http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/ But I don't know how to use it
No PTP mode option in USB Connectivity in my phone
My device is not shown in Android Device Monitor and thus I can't run app test on my phone.
How to let my Android Studio catch my phone?
If your device is not correctly detected in RAD Studio or in the system Device Manager, check the following: Ensure that your Android device is unlocked and not sleeping while connected via USB. Set the appropriate option in Settings or Developer Options. Make sure your Android device is enabled for USB debugging.
To launch Android Device Monitor from your command line, execute the monitor program in your Android SDK's tools directory. If you prefer to run the tool from Android Studio, choose Tools > Android > Android Device Monitor.
Start Android Device Monitor. To start the standalone Device Monitor application in Android Studio 3.1 and lower, enter the following on the command line in the android-sdk/tools/ directory: You can then link the tool to a connected device by selecting the device from the Devices pane.
So, where is the missing android monitor? Android Device Monitor is a standalone tool that provides a UI for several Android app debugging and analysis tools. However, most components of the Android Device Monitor are deprecated in favor of updated tools available in Android Studio 3.0 and higher
If Android Studio doesn’t even detect your device using ‘ADB devices’. then try to switch to PTP instead of MTP on your device. To do so, just click on “File transfer via USB touch for more options” in the notification area of the device. and then choose the PTP option. Then you will get a popup on your device regarding access.
Open up your device manager, navigate to your android device, right click on it and select Update Driver Software then select Browse driver software. Follow the file location path previously to install Google USB Driver. Restart Android Studio and Developer Options in your android device and reconnect USB.
I tried all the possible solutions given above but cannot detect my device. Finally, I come to know device drivers are not installed.
You can install it like: Go to Tools > Android > SDK Manager> SDK Tools > Google USB drivers.
Make sure it's installed.
Some possible solutions:
On your notification bar, expand it and click the connection. Then select connect as Camera (PTP)
(not as media device)
Try with another USB cable.
Go to your SDK manager and install (I see you updated your answer regarding this)Google USB Driver
Follow the instructions on OEM USD Drivers
