Hi,

I kind stuck to even to start configuring Android phone (It is first generation and no touch screen)
Here is the error that I got and seems like it is pretty common error for most people who try to install first generation Android phone. (You can search in google with keywords "google android error device not found")

Any body experience the same thing?

----------------------------------------------
Error get "error: device not found"
----------------------------------------------
Tested in Windows 2003, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Ubuntu, Mac OS (Any more? kind of running out of options.

--- Windows -------------------------------------------------
C:\android\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools>adb shell
error: device not found

C:\android\android-sdk-windows-1.1_r1\tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
-----------------------------------------------------
1. This what I have in Windows "Device Manager"
ADB Interface (Installed correctly did not have any "Yellow exlamation icon"
- "Android Sooner Composite ADB Interface"
- "Android Sooner Kernel Debug Interface"
2. Has set "Debugging" option in Android in
"Development Settings" -> Development -> "Debug App" -> Check "Wait for debugger"
Is this the "USB Debug option"?
------------------------------------------------
Here is the Phone spec
a. Phone type EXCA300
USB Port 1 :
Manufacturer : Google, Inc.
Product : Android Sooner
Info : 53531309d1035cc9

Product ID : VEN_18D1,DEV_DEED,PRT_00
Class : Vendor Specific
Max. Packet Size : 64 bytes

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Also has consider follow the steps of running in the order of 3 components to ADB:
------- quote from mailing list---------------
- the 'adbd' daemon that runs on the device
- the 'adb server' that runs as a background process on the host development
machine
- the 'adb client', which can be either the adb executable or DDMS, which
communicate with the server
------------------------------------------------------------------


Thank you in advance,

are you tring to put (port) android to another device that typically doesn't run android? or are you trying to run adb on android?

or something else altogether?
 
Thanks so much for the response. The phone already loaded with android os from the manufacture and I think it is the approved phone for android. What we are trying to do is very simple. Only two things that we need
1. To make wifi connection works
2. To make flash works.

However, we are stuck even on the first step which is not able to connect to the phone.

Thanks in advance,
John
 
so your android phone doesn't have a touchscreen? do you have a picture of it? i'm not sure how to connect an unknown device to the internet.
 
Thanks again for the feedback. It looks like this

interesting.... an android phone that completely slipped by me... unfortunatelly for you though john, i have no idea about the phone since i know nothing about it.

what country are you in?
 
Well that's even more bizarre, where did you get it? in the u.s. not say ebay...
Because it possibly isn't compatible with u.s. networks and may not have wifi. Of course this is all speculation.
 
Probably because Sooner (a codename) was never produced for consumer usage. It was used for the early testing and development of Android (think 2007). You can still see vestiges of it in the usb driver that is bundled with sdk v1.1

Code: 
USB\VID_18D1&PID_DDDD.DeviceDescTest="Android Sooner ADB Testing Interface"
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D00D.DeviceDescRelease="Android Sooner Single ADB Interface"
USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED&MI_01.DeviceDescRelease="Android Sooner Composite ADB Interface"
USB\VID_18D1&PID_DEED&MI_02.DeviceDescRelease="Android Sooner Kernel Debug Interface"
USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C01.DeviceDescRelease="HTC Dream"
USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C02&MI_01.DeviceDescRelease="HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface"

Hi John,

Can you please suggest which version of SDK solved this issue? I have downloaded the latest SDK and I get the same message that device not found.
