-> phonegap run android
[phonegap] detecting Android SDK environment...

Answer 1

I was having this same problem on an LG Optimus phone; adb reported that the device was there, but cordova run android --device failed with "Failed to deploy to device; no devices found". Turns out that of the four connection modes available on the phone:

• Charge phone
• Media sync (PTP)
• Internet connection
• Camera (PTP)

The only one that works is Internet connection -> Modem

Hope this saves someone some hair-tearing. :)
