= Installing and Debugging Android Apps on Eclipse on a Kobo Vox in Ubuntu/Unix =
turn on your device. In settings go to application. From applications go to development and enable USB debugging.
plug in your device to the usb in your computer/laptop
log in as sudo and create a file called 51-android.rules in your etc/udev/rules.d in the root folder.
Sudo -i
enter your password
cd ../..
cd etc/udev/rules.d
gedit 51-android.rules
in that file you enter the following
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="2237", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
ATTR{idVendor} is passed the vendor code for your device and varies depending on the type of android device you are using. (in this case vendor 2237 is the vendor ID for the Kobo Vox)
A list of vendor ID's can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html
exit and save the file
now type in adb devices. Your device should now be listed
activate eclipse and select your application
right click on it, select run as android application. As long as your device runs the minimum SDK version listed in your apps manifest file (ie: <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" />) then your device should be on the list of devices where you can run and debug your app. Most devices can run a SDKVersion 8 though for some of the later labs you might need SDKVersion 10.
