    Hello Modal AI team,

    The error I get went flashing a new SDK

    error: insufficient permissions for device: user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong?
    See [http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html] for more information

    When I run adb devices:

    List of devices attached
    a0d316ec no permissions (user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong?); see [http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html]

    Do you know what I should do?

      @tonygurney See here for adb install instructions and debugging tips:
      https://docs.modalai.com/setting-up-adb/#setting-up-adb

      The udev rules at the bottom may solve your issue
