Phone doesnt show up in eclipse eventhough adb is working

Question

ive got a slight problem with Eclipse. For some reason i cant find my device in the run configurations. USB Debugging is enabled on the phone and even the logcat output when the phone is attached in eclipse works, however i cant find the phone. If i select manual in the run configurations everything gets disabled in the menu like this:

Any ideas why? Phone is a HTC Desire HD running android 2.2.1 and i have the Froyo sdk installed. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

That window allows you to choose your preferred Android Virtual Device.

If you chose "Manual", when launching the application from Eclipse, Eclipse should display a dialog, asking you on which device the application should run -- your real phone should be present, in that dialog.

As an example, here's how this dialog looks like for me, after I've choosen Manual in the one your posted :

The 192.168.0.10:5555 phone is my HTC Desire, connected over wifi (I would get the same result with USB -- except I would have the model's name of my phone, and not it's IP address)

Answer 2

Maybe your platform target is sdk version 10. Your Desire only has 8. Does your manifest maybe include the line:

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" />
