Help with ADB

Ok i made a post and it was moved to trash and it says i dont have permission to post there so ill just move it here.....
Ok well i have been trying for like 2 hours now to get ADB to work. I followed all the guides, installed the 1.5 SDK and everything even did the Enviroment Variable thing as well. When i plug in my G1 i dont get any popup of a new device or anything. In device manager there is not ADB as well just Android Phone and when i uninstall it, it installs again on its own when i plug the phone in again. I went to cmd and typed in adb shell but i get "device not found".
Anyone know whats wrong? Btw im using Windows Vista SP1
I went into fastboot and that gave me the new driver notification so i have fastboot working but when i go to ADB i get device not found and device manager finds my phone as a universal usb device or w/e. Why wont this work?!?!?!?
It sounds like you didn't install the drivers.
Read this (I wrote it). You should have adb working in no time.
http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f28/what-is-adb-made-easy-17732/
Did you update the driver for the phone (should currently be showing as one of the USB Composite Device, IIRC) with the ADB driver included in the SDK (android_usb.inf in <sdk root directory>\usb_driver\)?
If you are using a 64-bit edition of Vista, alternatively, you can try the 64-bit signed driver found here. Also, you can try the updated driver I have attached.
Well, if you used your phone as a card reader at any point before you enabled USB debugging, then you'll have to uninstall the USB Mass Storage Device associated with your phone first. After that, unplug and plug the USB cord back in and it'll install the USB Mass Storage Device and then it'll ask about the ADB interface. That's your chance to install the driver that everyone is talking about but didn't spend the time to explain how to get there if you were in this situation...
never mind i got it. I used a program to uninstall all the Android USB drivers then i plugged it back in and it worked. Thanks for the help guys!

[Drivers] MS Windows x86 and x64 USB Drivers for Samsung Galaxy S

Team,
For those of you having trouble finding drivers here are some links.
64bit:

32bit:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x86.shtml
For Linux and Mac the Android SDK drivers should work fine.
The standard Samsung USB driver that PDAnet had listed for the Samsung Moment worked for me as well, will give these new ones a try on my other system.
thank you
I added a link to this thread in the sticky
EDIT: Nevermind the n00b question. I was able to get the drivers installed and I am good to go.

have the same problem. i'm on 7, 32bit
did you enable USB debugging?
Gunnman from Galaxy S
yes of course. first thing I did after I rooted
I'm drunk so bear with me. go into device manager and browse for the driver manually ,include subdir. point to programfiles\samsung.
if that don't work use the 64bit drivers on 32bit windows. don't run setup just browse to the extracted dir from the unknown device in device manager. it worked for me at work. good night
Gunnman from Galaxy S
since i had issues w/ the 32bit driver exe, i extracted it and zipped it up incase others have the same issue.

this thread should be stickied since W7 doesn't come with the drivers, it seems.

Anyone?? I can't get get adb to recognize my device for the life of me
Try both 32bit and 64 bit drivers. At work I have 32bit win7 and the 64bit drivers fixed it up. Dont run setup just go through device manager chosse the unknown device and point it to the 64bit driver directory and check include sundirs.
Try using correct drivers for your win version but turn the phone off, connect and then power up while connected....worked fine for me after messing with both lots of drivers first and no luck
Make sure you select "USB debugging" for ADB to work folks.
Where can I get the mac driver..i looked everywhere please help
this thread is legit!
thanks for all of your help so far guys.. BUT i still cannot get my laptop to sync up with the phone properly (win xp pro, sp3)...
I've downloaded and installed both drivers and the computer is recognizing the external drives, but they are showing as removable disks E: and F:. when i double click to open, it is telling me to insert a disk? i feel like i'm almost there, but there is somethign i'm missing!
usb is mounted and usb storage is off. usb debugging enabled.
any help would be appreciated.
Windows drivers issue
Have you tried mounting the drives. Same thing happened to me when you have it connected to the computer drop down the usb notification and mount. The your drives should be accessible.

T-Mobile G1 shows up as HTC Dream instead of android phone

It probably shows up as an HTC DREAM because...., hmm, let me think...
PROBABLY because THATS WHAT IT IS!!!!!
It is indeed a HTC dream; T-mobile just rebranded it T-mobile G1.
I downloaded the drivers via the Android SDK(google it; can't post links).
If you unpack it, you can choose to download drivers when running SDKsetup.exe (and a lot more which you won't need unless you're experimenting/developing). These drivers will be in the folder "unpack folder\drivers" in which "unpack folder" the folder is where sdksetup.exe is. Select this folder as a source for drivers and windows will install the drivers.
You don't need to use PDANET to use it though; android has a normal feature for that.

[Q] windows driver issues for vivid

I'm fairly new to android and i was wanting to root my htc vivid but it will not connect to my computer. I first plugged it in and the windows device manager installed a driver that just said unknown device. so i went and downloaded the htc sync software but even that won't recognize the vivid. I'm at a total loss and need direction.
Drivers at htc
Did you try the drivers at developer.htc.com ?
Page 4 from "Kernel Source code"
Download ADB http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
Choose Connection Type
When you connect your Vivid to the PC via the USB cable, you should see a screen asking what type of connection you want - charging only, disk drive, sync, etc. If you are not trying to actually sync data, just select disk drive and the tap the Done button at the bottom. You can then see the internal storage (and the "external" SD card if you have one installed). This can be done even if HTC Sync does not work.
If you don't see the connection type screen, go into Settings and tap on Connect to PC. Check the Ask Me box so you will be prompted the next time you plug in the USB cord.
As to HTC Sync, see my posting elsewhere in this forum about HTC Sync not working. In my opnion, it's not a very good program.
As for the driver, you may need to uninstall the driver if you can. Then uninstall and re-install HTC Sync to get the correct driver.

I had similar issues trying to install the ICS update. Some searching lead me to this post that had just the drivers I needed.
-Brett.
I've tried the drivers from that post before and still no dice. And when I connect my phone it never asks for connection type even when I have it checked. I'm still in the same boat

Exactly what he said, Windows Vista didn't tell me any drivers were required (in charge only mode), but I had to install the XP drivers from that link before the RUU would proceed past the very first step. After I did that it worked fine.
Just unzip the drivers to a folder and when Windows tells you it can't find drivers, tell it to look there.
Ok I have the same issue but windows doesn't tell me it can't find drivers it just sits there. So how di I get it to accept the drivers?

I found the drivers for windows by going thru the at&t website... Then once I installed the HTC sync software (yes I know it doesn't work) and ran it... It told me there was a new version... I installed that and like magic it finally knew it was there...

HTC has new drivers that work when the old drivers did not. HTC SYNC from htc.com Load in Windows7 and they will run in the background.
read the posts above to set your phone correctly and you should be good to go. Gary

Q: USB Not Recognised while in Fastboot

Hey guys,
Wonder if you can all help me,
Im not new to Rooting, but i have never come across this error before, ive searched accross XDA and Google, but cannot for the life of me find a fix, found a couple of things about deleting a registry file, and installed the One drivers which i had downloaded from here. I Do not have HTC Sync installed.
When device is powered up normally and connected to USB it as fine. When i reboot the Device into fastboot and connect it, i get a Error saying USB Device not recognised.
When i goto device manager, its shows up as My One under HTC, but has a Yellow '!' in a triangle, when i click on properties it states a code 10 Device Fails To Start error.
Please help as this is really frustrating me... Ive tried everything! And i really dont want to re-set my whole laptop as i will lose ALOT of data!
Like i said, im not new to this, as been doing this since the days of the HTC HD2...Am i missing something? Having a thick moment?
Running Windows 8.1.
If anyone really knows what this could be and could possibly fix, let me know as have team viewer and would gladly let you connect to me to help me out (Donation for your time aswell)
Thanks in Advance!
Really simple mate, windows 8.1 isnt compatible with fastboot drivers for now. Only adb is working atm. So dont be scared, your phone have no problem, its only because you updated to 8.1
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Edit: there is a possible fix if your computer is based on intel chipset usb 3.0. Just google something like Windows 8.1 fastboot fix. Otherwise I think you will need to wait or simply use another computer with win7 or 8.0 or maybe dual boot win7 or even boot win7 with a vm?
Edit 2: search the forum, there is a "how to" force win7 fastboot drivers installation on win8.
Perfect buddy worked a Treat! Thankyou so much! I was getting so frustrated haha!
Didnt know it was a problem with Windows, so just needed to change the search terms, do'h!
For all those that has the problem in the future, a link for the fix!
Clicky!
Mods, this can now be closed, fixed!
fastboot for windows 8.1 over linux and this is my option to work fastboot on win 8.1
load wubi (windows ubuntu installer) over the link http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Wubi
than install ubuntu, on harddrive C:// and reboot your Pc
Now you have a linux in your current system, you can remove ubuntu (linux) in Programms & feautures list in windows.
now reboot reboot the system and isntall in ubuntu fastboot.
you musst give in the terminal sudo apt-get fastboot
and now you can flash your bootloader in linux.
but you musst sudo bevor you type fastboot flash type sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
adb is working to on linux
i love wubi <3
you say it is easy
gooogle wubi (windows ubuntu installer)
tried running ubuntu in a virtual machine still no go guess the vm needs the windows driver to see the damn usb ports ffs
anyone know if for sure it will work if i actually install ubuntu to a partition?
Sony vaio 13 i7-4500u so only got usb3 ports and small hard drive didnt wanna dual boot really
