physically connected devices do not appear in sidekick

[coryellcp]

Please, provide the details below:

Sidekick does not recognize when either a physical iphone 6s or android tablet are plugged in. When I click on "run on device" it shows nothing as connected. Sidekick only sees any devices when I have an android emulator running. Sidekick is running on Ubuntu 16.04.

Did you verify whether this issue has already been reported here?

_Yes

Hi @coryellcp ,

This is a known issue. On Linux, iOS devices are not detected in Sidekick. This is a limitation of the OS.

Cheers

I have a really similar set up (Android 6.0 on a phone, Ubuntu 16.04), and this worked for me: Follow these instructions to enable developer settings in your phone. After tapping the thing in About Phone 7 times, I saw a "Developer Options" pane pop up above the About Phone option in settings. Go into the developer options and turn on USB Debugging. Also, if you see a notification-like thing that lets you set how you're using the USB when you pull down the top bar on the phone, tap on it and select "USB for file transfer." (Not sure if this is required, so I'm just saying what I did.) For me, the device appeared in NativeScript Sidekick after I did these things. I hit Run on Device. After that point I had to wait a very long time (maybe 10 minutes). There are status messages in the footer of Sidekick as you wait explaining what's going on; it was installing things on my computer and on the phone. When it was done (no more status messages), I had a new app on my phone that had the same name as my project name.

Is there any work around this problem? My environment is Ubuntu and iPhone.

Thank you for the help.

If someone happens to him, I solved it by revoking the usb debug permissions.
