An incompatibility has been found between version 2012 R5 of the Intel GPA product and the latest Android* SDK, version 21.0.1. This issue only occurs with Windows OS* clients connecting to Android* devices. It does not affect users of earlier versions of the Android* SDK, users running the Ubuntu* or OS X* client, or users analyzing Windows OS* target devices.
If you attempt to run Intel GPA System Analyzer from a Windows OS* client system that has 21.0.1 installed, you will see the following "adb" error:
If you run into this issue, your best solution is to install an earlier version of the Android* SDK, as the problem is isolated to version 21.0.1 of the SDK on Windows OS*. If you are not able to use a version of the SDK that works with Intel GPA, please add a comment to this article and we will provide you with detailed instructions to work around the issue.
