Hi @Ruban1,

Would you please share the log of the error?

From your description, you may want to first check if you enabled the USB developer option within your Android BSP.

• Go to Settings.
• Click on "about tablet"
• Scroll down to the last row (Build Number) and tap that row 7 times.
• Return to the previous screen and click on "developer options
• Confirm that "usb debugging" is checked.

Hi @Ruban1 ,

Please make sure that you are executing adb devices within the same folder as adb.exe. Just tested this on an i.MX 8M Nano EVK with success; you should see something similar:

C:\Android\platform-tools_r31.0.2-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
List of devices attached
1e0b3a0a5c85f0d5        device

I am using the Android SDK Platform Tools, btw.

Hope this helps!

i am using ubuntu 20.04 .. cant u provide me details regarding ubuntu 20.04. not windows

Just tested this on my Ubuntu 20.04 laptop. Hope it helps.

1. Install adb

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~$ sudo apt install adb

2. Connect your i.MX EVK using an USB cable, make sure to not use the debug UART.

3. Start adb

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~/Pictures$ sudo adb start-server
[sudo] password for ruben: 
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully

4. Make sure to have your EVK listed

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~/Pictures$ adb devices -l
List of devices attached
1e0b3a0a5c85f0d5       device usb:1-4 product:evk_8mn model:EVK_8MN device:evk_8mn transport_id:1

4. In my case, I transferred a picture from my laptop to the EVK, just to test:

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~/Pictures$ adb push apalis.jpg /storage/emulated/0/DCIM
apalis.jpg: 1 file pushed. 12.0 MB/s (133704 bytes in 0.011s)

5. Finish. Open your gallery at Android and you should see the the file.

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~/Pictures$ adb kill-server

6. Optional. It may possible that you need to enable adb as root user

ruben@ruben-HP-ZBook-15-G3:~/Pictures$ adb root
