If you want to run your applications in samsung mobiles you need to install samsung kies in your PC. Download kies from here

Some devices will automatically installs device drivers in your pc when you connect to pc but some are not. So that is why we need to install pc sync to test our applications.

To enable USB debugging (only for Android v4.2 and above) :

Go to Settings → More → About Device Scroll down to Build Number Tap it repeatedly (tap 7 times). See the Developer options menu under Settings → More

See this video for installing kies and this for enable debug mode.

Got it..

In your mobile Goto

Setting -> About -> (touch on Build Number 7 times continuously) -> then come back to Developer Option -> Enable USB Debugging

USB Debugging option was not coming for me. Above Android v4.2 they have hidden USB Debugging option.

Got this from youtube

My Samsung is an honest piece of.... er, brick, considering it doesn't even properly connect to USB anymore. Beforehand, when it didn't think it's charging when it isn't, and think that my computer is a car dock; I had to manually link it to the PC so that it would be detected. The way you do that is by downloading the drivers, specifically this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2645355

What also helped was installing these drivers using the command 'pnputil -i -a filename.inf' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514942

And what you need to do is, restart your computer, then when you plug the device in, it will detect it as an UNKNOWN DEVICE because Samsung Drivers are terrible. When this happens, go to Control Panel -> Device Manager -> Other Devices -> Unknown Device -> Update Driver Software -> Browse my computer -> Let me pick from a list -> See all drivers -> Samsung -> select the one for usb phones.

That should fix the problem. KIES never helps.
