title: Samsung Galaxy S8 not recognised by Android Studio
body: <p>I am trying to use my Galaxy S8 with android studio as an external device but it seems like my Mac cannot recognize it.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I have developer mode and USB debugging enabled</li>
  <li>ADB drivers are installed, but when I run ADB devices on terminal it does not display anything</li>
  <li>I tried to restart the ADB server several times but it does not work anyway</li>
  <li>I tried on a different Mac and on a Windows computer - same problem-</li>
  <li>I tried all the previous solutions with a different USB cable - same problem-</li>
  <li>I installed SmartSwitch, but also this program does not recognize my device, same for AFT, I also deleted one of the two and tried singularly, but as always, it does not work.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Basically it seems that the phone can only be charged via usb, but I have no reason to believe that the usb port might be damaged.</p>
