Edit - been a while since I've had to do this . I just tried it on my HTPC, and worked like a charm - however, I did get caught up in the same section, I just did a sudo ./adb kill-server then sudo ./adb start-server, then ./adb devices work. I'll point it out to the OP in that thread, might've just overlooked this step. Hope that works for you, thanks!

Eh on second thought, he does already mention killing and starting the server if you're still getting the permissions issue... So I don't think there's anything to point out . Gotta read thru those directions carefully!

ok so after a couple hours of banging my head against the wall I did manage to get it to work, im not sure exactly what was wrong but the kill/start server is def key. I edited my rules file to be -SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666"- as per a youtube video lol and then killed and restarted the server and now im good to go

thanks a lot for the help man
