"adb devices" shows device as "unauthorized". How can I fix this?

Question

I just decided to move from Windows to Linux for my Android development, I just finished to setup Android Studio, I was able to import my project into it, but now I want to be able to run my application on my Google Nexus 5.

In my Android Device Monitor, my phone is detected as unauthorized.

I put :

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{18d1}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

Into :

~/.android/adb_usb.ini

You can find your answer here: Configuring ADB for Nexus 4 on Ubuntu 11.10. Little different device, so you might have to replace some values – but close enough to solve your issue :) — Izzy, Jul 19 '14 at 21:42
That question is not the same as the other. Swann's problem is that he didn't authorized the host to access the device via adb (as answered by keepcalm). — Flow, Jul 20 '14 at 17:26

You need to enable USB debugging on your phone. You should get prompted to accept an RSA key, which will mean that your computer is authorised.

Also keep in mind that any coding questions belong on StackOverflow.
