Issue
I am trying to develop android apps on a MAC Mini and have installed all the required software like android SDK, eclipse and ADT. Everything works well so far except for one thing. I am connecting a Google Nexus phone via the USB and i have put the phone in the USB debugging mode and also have checked the option that the screen remain on while connected via USB.
But for some reason, I keep losing the connection when the device is connected at a regular interval. For ex: every 3 minutes or so. I know that it's losing connection because when I run
adb devices
after 3 minutes or so, i see no devices in the list of devices. Any workaround for this or am i not doing some set up steps correctly?
Thanks.
Solution
I run into this issue as well sometimes and for me it is usually a bad port on my laptop, when I use another port than it works fine, if available try different usb ports on your computer. Also the usb cord you are using may be faulty as well, if you have access to another cord I would try that and see if it doesn't help.
