Question

I'm trying to connect my Samsung Galaxy to PC but ddms tool does not recognize my phone. USB debugging is enabled. What can cause a problem?

PS. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 OS.

You should add a rule to /etc/udev/rules.d (i.e.: 51-android.rules):

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666"

just in case verify that the id for your phone matches 0x04e8 using lsusb. Once the new rule is added just reload them by

$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
