trouble running adb with Samsung Vibrant

Question

First, I should mention that I am a beginner at Android development.

I just bought a Samsung Vibrant and I'm trying to connect to it with adb. When I connect the phone and do a "adb devices" it didn't display anything. So, I checked device Manager and the phone was listed under disk drives. I tried downloading the adb driver for the phone and installing it manually. SAMSUNG Android Composite ADB Interface was listed under the ADB Interface after that. But, the device status is Device Cannot Start.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Did you select enable usb debugging in the settings?

Answer 2

Is that setting on the phone? If it is, then no. I don't have a developer phone. I just have one that I bought from the T-Moble store. But, I was told that I would still be able to develop with it. I just wouldn't be able to get debug feed back as the app was running on the phone. I can live with that. All I want to be able to do is to copy my app to the phone without having to upload it to the market.
