I can't for the life of me get adb to recognize the tablet. I added the the device to the 51 android rules but it still doesn't work. I would really like to have adb working and would really appreciate any help.

I unlocked the bootloader and flashed cwm recovery in fastboot though I had to use different commands then are in any guide around.


These are the commands I used for anyone using ubuntu having trouble with the commands.


sudo fastboot -i 0x17ef oem unlock
sudo fastboot -i 0x17ef flash recovery A2109_CWMrecovery-6.0.1.9c.img
sudo fastboot -i 0x17ef reboot

Also you can't have the device plugged into your computer when you boot into fastboot or fastboot wont work.
This was on ICS, I don't know how the bootloader would work on JB.

type your adb commands and the output.

example

sudo killall adb

sudo adb shell

OK I don't know how but now its working. I don't understand how after everything I couldn't get it to work till I came and asked how to get it working. Anyway thanks for your reply.
