No, minSdk(API 15) > deviceSdk(API1) in android studio

Question

I am a newbie in android development. Yesterday, I have setup my environment in windows 8, I have downloaded android SDK, when i run it, asked me to install some tools. I have installed all. After that i tried creating a sample project, then I run it on my phone connecting with USB. I am succeed in windows.

But, Now I tried to connect to my android studio in linux mint. I am getting error as No minSDK, and also I went to the sdk folder and opened terminal and run like this

adb devices

• daemon started successfully * ZL2GLMA5A0811781 no permissions

That is the output... Please help me out...

EDIT:

I have enabled developer options and also USB debugging. As I mentioned already, it worked well on windows 8 with IntelliJ but in android studio,linux mint it's not working...

Answer 1

You have to set up your linux mint system to detect your device.

If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a udev rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development.

In the rules file, each device manufacturer is identified by a unique vendor ID, as specified by the ATTR{idVendor} property.

For a list of vendor IDs, see USB Vendor IDs, below.

To set up device detection on Linux follow these steps:

Step 1:

Log in as root and create this file: /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Use this format to add each vendor to the file:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"  

In this example, the vendor ID is for HTC. The MODE assignment specifies read/write permissions, and GROUP defines which Unix group owns the device node.You can find vendor ID in above link.

Step 2:

Now execute:

chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

For detailed information please check this and this.

Disconnect the USB cable between the phone and the computer.

Reconnect the phone.

Run adb devices to confirm that now it has permission to access the phone.

if above steps doesn't work for you then kill and start the adb server again. On linux: sudo adb kill-server and then sudo adb start-server. Then it will detect nearly every device out of the box.

I hope it helps you.
