Try this:

if(Settings.Secure.getInt(context.getContentResolver(), Settings.Global.ADB_ENABLED, 0) == 1) {
    // debugging enabled 
} else {
    //;debugging does not enabled
}

I notice that ADB_ENABLED now has a line through it, with a message that 'ADB_ENABLED' is deprecated as of Android 17 (Jelly Bean)' on the mouseover. I don't see any promising suggestions on the autocomplete list after 'Secure.' Anyone know what the current syntax is for this? – Garica

Try Settings.Global instead of Settings.Secure on android API levels 17+ – Crystallization

if(Settings.Secure.getInt(this.getContentResolver(), Settings.Global.DEVELOPMENT_SETTINGS_ENABLED, 0) == 1) – Devanagari

Simple:

   boolean isDebuggable =  ( 0 != ( getApplicationInfo().flags &= ApplicationInfo.FLAG_DEBUGGABLE ));

And if you want to check if it is connected:

if (!Debug.isDebuggerConnected()){
   //Yes, it is.
}

The question is about whether or not USB debugging is enabled, not if the app is debuggable or being debugged. Still useful though – Registrant
