-You must create an adb connection for your RPi.  adb is the "android debug bridge" over which diagnostic output is received and development commands are sent.  Usually an adb connection is made over USB, but this hasn't been tested with the RPi.  (The RPi's USB ports are intended to be used in master mode, and it's not yet known whether they will go into slave mode if connected to a host machine through a full-sized USB male-to-male connector.  These cables are also somewhat hard to find.)
