Theta X not getting detected by adb on Linux and Mac

1

I have three ThetaX devices that are detected by adb on Windows. But, none of those devices are detected by adb on Linux and Mac. This is very frustrating. Does anybody know, what could be the issue?

did you unlock all three devices by contacting RICOH? I actually had the problem of adb not detecting devices before on certain cameras and was never able to resolve the problem. Maybe open up an issue on GitHub?

If you found a solution, please post it.

You can try following command.

export ADB_LIBUSB=0
adb kill-server
adb start-server

Using libusb backend sometimes cause a problem to detect adb devices.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Unfortunately, these commands don’t work for me on the Mac.

Looking at the release notes of the latest android sdk, libusb has been rolled back due to device detection issues. So, I am not sure, what is happening.

OK.., my adb version for MacOS is following, by the way. It works with THETA X nornally.

% adb version
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41
Version 31.0.1-7187441
Installed as /Applications/platform-tools/adb

Thank You. I uninstalled everything and installed the latest SDK. It’s now working.
