Empty Explorer in Eclipse DDMS

Question

I am trying to access db files on my Android phone through Eclipse DDMS. However, the file explorer is empty. Ive tried restarting the adb server by restarting eclipse and it still does not work. My phone can be seen in the "My devices" section and it is shown that it is online.

Any idea why this is happening and what could be the solution?

Thanks.

Answer 1

DDMS will not display the file system of the device. You can view the file system of your emulator.

Answer 2

What you need to do is to start the emulator first, then go the Window->show view -> other -> Android -> devices . Then you can select a device located on the network, now go to the file explorer, which will show all the files related to this particular device . Here you need to specify a different point, the files in the file explorer vary from device to device

Answer 3

Select "Windows Devices". Then click the Reset Adb menu. After I try this method, My File explorer Look Fine

Answer 4

If other offers do not work. You can try restarting eclipse. It worked for me.
