Adb cannot find my device (sony xperia J)

Question

Adb cannot find my device (sony xperia J)

I am using windows 7 64 bit
My phone is Sony Xperia J
my phone is in debug mode
The drivers for my phone are installed.
'adb devices' returns: "List of connected devices" by nothing else
I uninstalled all related software and installed it again

There are many other things that I have tried already, but since I tried to solve it for 2 days, I basically already tried all the possible solutions that are on the Internet. Please, help.

I found out that you have to put your phone in Mass Storage mode, since the default is MTP mode. So simple @#! And I spent hours trying all kinds of message reading.

Settings / Xperia / USB Connectivity / USB Connection Mode and select MASS Storage rather than MTP. I unchecked Install PC Companion. It works right away. No need to update drivers, no need to change android_winusb.inf. You may need to kill adb.exe before reconnecting adb devices.

It was for me :)

The answer to this question for Sony Xperia Tablet S:

enter the Sony repository in the SDK manager (tools → manage additional sites → user-defined sites - new) http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/sdk_manager/Tablet-SDK-Add-on.xml
in the main SDK manager, select "repository" (bottom of the screen)
find Sony entry, install “Sony Tablet SDK Add-On”

Change Google USB Driver

install Google usb driver in Android SDK Manager
provides a subdirectory of $ ANDROID_SDK \ sdk \ extras \ google \ sub_driver
This directory contains android_winusb.inf
- add
(this should be different in your case)
; Sony Sony Tablet S% CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB \ VID_054C & PID_05B4 & MI_01
to sections
[Google.NTx86] [Google.NTamd64]
open cmd shell
cd c: \
mkdir.android
cd.android
echo 0x54c -> adb_usb.ini (possibly a different number)

Installing a modified driver

kill any adb process first
connect the tablet, make sure that debug usb mode is selected on the device.
open device manager → other devices, device with an exclamation mark
- update driver
- viewing drivers.
- !! choose from the list
- !! have a drive
- !! select android_winusb.inf
- ignore all unsigned driver warnings
- select Android ADB interface
the device should now display as “Android device - Android ADB interface”, (still in the device manager
the above should do the trick.
try $ ANDROID_PATH \ sdk \ platform-tools \ adb devices
he must list the new device (before it becomes unviable)
