USB device for Samsung Intercept not recognized from <sdk>/tools/adb devices

I created an Android App in Eclipse that I'd like to test on my Samsung Intercept phone.

I downloaded the Windows ADB USB driver from Google and added the following lines to the android_winusb.inf based on the values found in Device Manager for my Samsung Intercept phone (based on other posts in this forum):

;SAMSUNG_Android  
%SingleAdbInterface%        = USB_Install, USB\VID_04E8&PID_681C  
%CompositeAdbInterface%     = USB_Install, USB\VID_04E8&PID_681C&MI_01
;

(FYI the Device Manager Ids are: 

USB\VID_04E8&PID_681C&REV_0224  
USB\VID_04E8&PID_681C)

After putting the Samsung phone in USB Debug mode, the drivers installed 'fine'... I'm seeing a new entry ("Android ADB Interface") in Device Manager under "Android Phone".

However, when I run <sdk>/tools/adb devices, the phone is not showing up as an available device (the list is empty).

I tried ending the adb process in Task Manager, but this was not successful.

Is there anything else that I'm missing?

I'm running Windows 7 64 bit, installed Eclipse and Android SDK in the program files X86 folder.

You could try using the phone in a Linux VM. VirtualBox is free for personal, evaluation, and educational use. Any modern Linux distro should support almost any android phone out of the box, provided the SDK is installed of course. If you are new to Linux, try out Ubuntu. I'm partial to Fedora myself. Just attach the phone to the VM from the USB devices menu. It's not the best solution, but it should work.

This page seems to have instructions for setting up that phone with the SDK, and for taking screenshots as well. Note: I have not tested these instructions as I do not own that phone.
