Test Target for a Physical Device

Hi all,

I was wondering what steps I need to take to get my Galaxy S3 to work as a testing device with LiveCode. I tried putting the phone on debug mode and then plugged it into my computer but for some reason LC won't seem to see it. Has anyone else had problems using physical devices to test?

In case it's needed, I'm running LC 5.5.3 and the S3 is running 4.0.4.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Happy holidays!

-Ben

Hi Ben,
I had a problem after getting a new laptop, I forgot to add the phone drivers. I guess they are not plug and play (Win7). Can you browse your phone via your computer?

Hi Simon,

Yea, I'm able to browse through my phone and I've been able to transfer pictures and whatnot pretty easily. Did adding drivers solve the problem for you?

I think what I actually did was to install the sync software that came with my device.

Hi Ben,

Those instructions are unfortunately misleading. Simply plugging in the device does not work.

Personally, I did not want to install the Samsung sync software. There is a way to install the USB drivers only.

You can download the drivers here:
