I want to troubleshoot them with Chrome\'s Developer Tools.

Answer 1

To get my Samsung S7 to connect, I did the following.

1. Download Samsung's USB Driver for Windows from here: http://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows
2. Install the driver
3. Uninstall the driver. It's important to do this step, as your device won't connect until you uninstall. Strange, I know!

I initially reported this solution in the comments section here but I didn't think it was a legitimate solution. I've since been able to reproduce this on 2 Windows 10 Pro devices and others have also confirmed.

After a Windows Update, this stopped working so I went through the process outlined above again. Installed driver then uninstalled driver and everything started working again.
