Question

My device is a Pantech Flex (ATT carrier and rooted) It will not show up in ADB device chooser

I have created a file /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
I have created a file /etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules
I have created a file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
I have edited the file ~/.android/adb_usb.ini

I am running eclipse ADT. I am using ubuntu 13.04

The contents for each of the files are identical (idVendor 10a9 for Pantech):

# ANDROID 3RD PARTY USB VENDOR ID LIST -- DO NOT EDIT.
# USE 'android update adb' TO GENERATE.
# 1 USB VENDOR ID PER LINE.
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b05", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="10a9", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

Solution

Turns out that one of those files fixed the problem after a reboot. No harm in having all of these files if you arnt sure which one your system needs. Its ugly but it works: 

/etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-android.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-android.rules
~/.android/adb_usb.ini
