Greetings,

I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy S2 and am having difficulty connecting B4A to it so that I can run my B4A apps. Previously I have been using a Galaxy Tab 7 WIFI with no problems.

The S2 OS is Android Gingerbread
I have enabled Unknown Sources and USB Debugging

When I try to launch my app from B4A it says "Device Not Found"

Do I need to run B4A-Bridge? I didn't need to on the Tab 7. I have already tried the B4A-Bridge with the S4 and typed in the appropriate IP number but still it won't connect.

Do I need to install special drivers specific to this model phone?

Thanks for any help

Yesterday I had the same problem, only had s2 first and later the tab 7.
Solft my problem in the SDK Manager, I'd need GALAXY TAB
Maybe you miss something there
Input IP did not work for me either
In the Device Manager you can see if your missing drivers, but i dont think you do

If you need drivers click here

Thanks for your feedback.

When you say SDK Manager, are you referring to the AVD Manager? If so, this is a necessary step even if I won't be using the Emulator?

I checked the Device Manager and it shows that I need to install drivers. I will do that next. I will report back whether it works or doesn't.

Thanks

Got it working now. I went to the Samsung site and downloaded Kies and the drivers. I think all I needed was the Kies which I'm guessing included the drivers.

Thanks for your help!
