Database Develop

[Q] No adb access.....

Once i got my new nook color i rooted it with auto nooter, and im running 1.0.1, on my previous nook i rooted it and adb worked right then, now i cant get adb access, im using the same computer and everything, all thats diferent is its a new nook. I have full root access and can install apps and everything. Any help?

Seems to be a common problem. You can launch NookColorTools and fix it temporarily. Go to "Development" and then unchecked and then recheck the USB Debugging box.

Ok I've been doing that for a while and finnaly got the message that USB debugging is only for development. It works now......

Get ADB wireless, it works great.

I've had zero luck using usb adb, but adb wireless works great!

I was having similar issues so after many many attempts I just decided to go with adb wireless and would definitely recommend going that route if you can't get it working over usb.

Yeah, getting ADB to work requires a lot of uninstalling/reinstalling drivers and unplugging/replugging the device, it's very temperamental.

can someone link me to a link on how to use/setup adb wireless

it's free in the market and once you download it set up is easy. i've used it through my mac terminal as well as through ubuntu. like the posters above i had the hardest time getting adb to work via usb.

once you've installed adb on your computer type "adb" at your terminal prompt and you should list of commands there.
here's the link to Android Developer's ADB website (this also lists commands):
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
files and installation directions can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Good luck!

Ok so me being my dumb self forgot to install the adb drivers for the nook....... im dumb haha, but i cant get them to install, every time i uninstall the mass storage driver so i can install the proper driver it automatically re-installs it....... HELPPPPPPP

Is there any way to download this to the SD and install it from there? I've upgraded to a version of froyo, which doesn't have the market, and my command line won't work after swapping nooks.

I can't seem to get mine to work with either adbwireless or via usb.
Using USB I get this:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>
Here is what I get if I try to connect using adbwireless:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb connect 192.168.2.4:5555
already connected to 192.168.2.4:5555
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
192.168.2.4:5555 device
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>
But it doesn't show a serial number like all the HowTo's says it should. What am I missing?
EDIT: HALLELUJAH!!
I fixed it. Actually I didn't fix it, I just followed some instructions from another user that was having the same problem and finally figured out the very weird thing that installing the drivers did. Anyway, here is the solution from hacku:

I followed your instructions to a T and I still can't get ADB to see my NC. After uninstalling all instances of Nook in my device manager, unplugging it and plugging it back in, it adds all the same devices:
Under Disk Drives it lists B&N Ebook Disk USB Device (twice)
Under Portable Devices it lists MyNookColor
Under USB Controllers it lists USB Mass Storage Device
My PC is Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Running Nook Color 1.1.0 rooted and overclocked to 1.1Ghz. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT 2:
So I decided to pull the MicroSD card to simplify things. Uninstalled all instances of Nook from Device Manager and scanned for new hardware. This time I noticed that Windows detected it as a Nook, but then would install the drivers and it would show the same USB Mass Storage Device and the two instances of B&N Disk USB Device. I also noticed that by uninstalling the driver of the USB Mass Storage Device automatically deleted the other two instances under Disk Drives. So I updated the USB Mass Storage Device driver and this time I was able to install the drivers provided, but now it only shows up as an Android Phone > Android ADB Interface (not Composite), but I'm still not able to see it under adb devices.
Help?
EDIT 3:
GOT IT WORKING!!!
For those of you having this same problem this is what I did:
1. Right Click Android ADB Interface (it won't say Composite)
2. Select Update Update Driver Software
3. Click on Browse My Computer For Driver Software
4. Click on Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
5. In the box that pops up click on USB Composite Device
6. Click Next
It now installed the USB Composite Device driver and changes your Android Phone to Android Composite ADB Device.
Open up Command Prompt and type adb kill-server then adb devices and your Nook Color will now show up.
Hope this helps some of you out.

This thing really needs to be pinned somewhere, preferably with IOMonster's first post. There's so many of us starting on this from scratch not able to get adb to see the device. har02's crosspost of hacku's post is what finally got it to work for me. there's a ton of junk out there that just doesn't make sense, and the installing the second driver on the "android interface" is a step that is completely missing from just about every post on this topic.
Aside from that, this forum is what got me buying a nook and happily learning all sorts of cool new things!

THANK you so much har02052, this marks the end of a 6 hour nook-fixing marathong....ahhhhh

[Q] ADB & Win7 x64 nightmare, tried everything

for about 4 days now I've been trying to get ADB to work on my phone following these instructions;

I've tried everything and so far I can't get past "adb devices" when I do so I get the message "adb is not recognized as an internal or external command"
what exactly am I doing wrong and how do I fix it? I've installed JDK & downloaded the android SDK package, in device manager the phone is recognize as "Android ADB interface"

Double check your path...
"Now type cd\AndroidSDK\tools\"
My path is c:\android-sdk-windows\tools\

I've renamed the file to AndroidSDK & placed it directly in C:/ so for me it's C:/ AndroidSDK/tools/
doesn't work...
-I plug the phone in and it's recognized as "Android ADB Interface" in device manager
-I open easy tether on the phone then right click on the pc & click connect then it says connection established via Android ADB.....
-I open CMD
-I type cd\
-then cd\AndroidSDK\tools\
-then adb devices & this is where I want to break everything because I can never get past this part and all I see is 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command.......
I hate this phone lol & wish I had the money to get the evo so I can put this thing in the trash, I just want to setup firerat's and that's the main reason why I want to establish ADB, is there any way it can be done without ADB????
thanks for trying to help, I hope someone can still figure this out for me

If you downloaded the newest SDK, then the problem might be that you are looking for adb in the wrong directory. It is no longer located in \tools. It was moved to the \platform-tools directory

In the morning I'll give a more detailed instructions, but you need to add the platform-tools folder to your PATH.

I have just added this exact directory to the end of my PATH
;C:\AndroidSDK\platform-tools\
rebooted, opened cmd, typed adb devices and still I get ADB is not a recognized command.
I went to HTC's site & downloaded the latest hero sync software (new version just came out 2 days ago) when I plugged my phone in it re-installed the drivers, tried it again and nothing!!
I did notice that after the HTC Sync installation in device manager the phone is no longer Android ADB Device, now it says MY HTC, did Sync ruin my ADB drivers?

Ok. So were you at with this???
Shoot me a pm if you still need assistance.
Edit: From reading your post I think your not changing the directory first.
So open up the cmd window. And type cd\ "then hit enter"
Thenn type.
cd\AndroidSDK\platform-tools\
And hit enter.
Then type. "adb devices" without the quotes. And see if that will show your serial number.
If that yeilds no results then try
cd\android\SDK\tools\
And hit enter.
Then type "adb devices" without the quotes. And hit enter and see if that will return your serial number.

Thanks guys for all the help you have provided, I have finally figured it out using this guide;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719
slightly different than the first guide I followed, instead of editing the PATH a new Environment Variable was created also a slightly different CMD code to get to ADB;
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools === Press Enter
adb devices === You should see your device listed
adb shell === you should see # in the next line
I hope this helps anyone else who might have the same issue.

ADB Help

I thought I had this figured out and adb and fastboot was working after I reinstalled usb driver from web--but
I can not type adb devices and have phone seen. I did reinstall driver per web directions and Device Mgr says it is up to date.
Attch 3 pics
1. is my comp Device Mgr screen. The opened Android Phone is where I updated from and says up to date. The opened Portable Devices shows G:\. I thought it use to show the device by name.

2. Is blackrose installer seeming to work but didn't proceed any further on it
View attachment 807633
3. Is Command Window
View attachment 807635
Any ideas what I am doing wrong. When I open Command Window I cd/
then type adb devices. Also tried it with sdk path selected. Debugging is on.
Thanks
Ken

I've never worked on my Nexus from Windows. But is it because it is mounted as a drive? As in, you mounted the SD Card for access in Windows when you connected your Nexus?

Thanks
but i didn't mount anything. just plugged in. phone says usb connected and and select to copy files. so, i didn't mount. in command window, as mentioned, i just opened window and typed cd/ then typed adb devices
sorry if i misunderstood your comment
what about the adb server outdated comment in command window?

I just did a fresh adb install the other day and allowed SDK manager to update all drivers and tools. I installed the SDK zip to the root of my C:\Drive
Note: ADB moved from \tools to \platform-tools\
After plugging my phone in and turning on USB debugging, I type:
CD\
CD androidSDK\platform-tools\
ADB Devices
Then you should see a serial number for your phone.

i just got to that point while you were posting
too bad my blackrose and hypersense files are gone
however, i have no platform-tools in sdk. only platforms with android-2 thru android-8
and mine is platforms not platform per note
trying to install it too platforms and get path right. don't see how to install from SDK and AVD
i have nothing listed in avd manager

can't get sdk r15 to install with platforms-tools
can't fetch repository and can't get to screen where you can change https to http to allow fetching of repository

well after unsuccessfully trying to update sdk and not getting the repository I restored the android folder from full image bu I made with Acronis
still saw in tools that adb had been moved to platforms-tools, which I did not have
I found adb under the temp folder and re exe it and it moved back to tools and after adb start-server was able to get adb devices working
not sure how it got moved

ADB problem and no OS on device

Last night, on TWRP I formated data on the SD card, which is why I have no OS. Now looking for how to fix this on xda/google, I get into the bootloader, have fastboot usb and try to adb shell but I keep getting the "error no device found". I already installed latest drivers from HTC on to my laptop and still nothing. Any other idea?

windows 8?

First off, make sure you have HTC Sync Manager installed because that will give you the proper drivers in order to be able to use ADB commands.
Afterwards, make sure you install Java JDK and Android SDK.
Just follow this tutorial here: http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
Follow it word for word and make sure you install JDK X86 even if you have a X64 computer. And then download SDK Manager, put it in C:/ drive, open SDK Manager, and download the necessary tools (also all in the tutorial).
I was in the same position as you just before yesterday and I followed this tutorial with success.

I'll look into both things, thanks.
EDIT: even on my mac adb does not see any devices, before when I entered ./adb devices it would show "list of devices:" and it would be blank.

Good luck, man. It's fairly easy once you read the tutorial carefully and follow all the steps to the word. After it's all done and the command prompt says Sideload 100%, boot into TWRP, tap INSTALL and then scroll down to sideload.zip and that's your ROM. Also after copying the desired ROM to platform-tools in the SDK folder, rename it to rom.zip, it seems to work 100% that way while it struggles a bit with long names.

Still getting the error: device not found.
I even ran the all in one tool kit and attempted the "ADB sideload a ROM" follow the steps but get an error on CMD "C:\users\(username) is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"
I really do not understand why adb is not working, I did s-off and supercid myself maybe less than a week ago.

Are you sure you followed all the steps in the tutorial including installing JDK, using SDK Manager to download some tools and such? And are you sure you have the proper drivers installed (e.g HTC Sync Manager)? I used to get that error before I installed it. Go to Device Manager while in ADB mode in TWRP and see if the device is recognized or if there's a yellow sign beside it indicating that there are no drivers for it.

It came up under Android USB Devices as My HTC. When I was following the steps on the link you provided, when I tried to update the drivers with the google usb driver wouldnt work, it would say "windows had determined the driver software for your device is up to date". When I go into My HTC properties says the driver version is 2.0.7.18.

The Google USB drivers did not work for me either, only the ones provided by HTC Sync Manager did. I have not experienced that problem, mate, so I do not know what to do at this point, I am very sorry. If you are not able to fix this, I suggest getting an OTG cable and directly loading the ROM from the PC to your SD card. I ordered one a couple of days ago and it is coming tomorrow, it's very helpful

Crap, I appreciate your help though.
EDIT: nevermind googled it, gonna pick one up. Phoneless till wednesday

I am sorry to hear that, but I suppose that's the only thing you can do at the moment. Even if somehow get ADB working, do not cancel your order because OTG cables aren't only used for mounting the device, but also for things like connecting gamepads and controllers to play games on your device.

USB 3
If you have USB3 port adb.exe wan't recognize your device.
I triend first on USB3 and after on other older computer on USB2 all was fine

You can't acces to "adb shell" without OS, there is special mode in adb named "adb sideload" , not shell !
1) Check version adb by "adb version" you need version 1.0.29 or higher
2) Check TWRP version (2.3 or higher) Go to TWRP recovery -> adb sideload
3) Connect PC to phone , at PC in device manager must be MY HTC device.
4) Type jn PC adb sideload /yourpath/yourrom.zip

Device Offline Error on HTC One

Okay, I am trying to run the firewater script in order to get S-OFF. But I have run into the "device offline" error when I try to connect my Mac to my HTC One. I understand from reading why I am getting the error, and that it is due to a new "feature" of Android 4.2.2+ which gives us secure usb debugging.
Here is the rub, though: When you connect a 4.2.2 (and above) android device to your machine (with USB debugging enabled) for the first time, you should be prompted with a confirmation message to allow or disallow USB debugging. This message will display your computers unique RSA key fingerprint and provide you a checkbox to “Always allow from this computer”. Check this box and select ‘OK’. Your device should no longer be listed as ‘offline’.
But that is not what is happening! Whatever manages the authorization questions thought that this computer was still trusted and did not ask for a new authorization. The trick, according to this thread [http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4159439] would seem to be to remove the
adb key from the device, so as to trigger the confirmation window to allow USB debugging. But I can not find the location of this file on my HTC One, so I have no way to remove it.
Please tell me where this file is located if you know it. I have ES File Explorer installed on my rooted HTC One, Dev. Edition, running Android 4.4.2. but that path nets me an empty folder.
Thank you for any and all assistance that you provide.
SOLUTION FOUND! - See my reply below.

Okay, typed into terminal:
cd Android/HTCOneRoot
./adb-mac version (This command gives the version of ADB that the Mac is using.)
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.29 (Terminal returns this answer; ADB needs to be at least version 10.3.1 to properly work and fix the "device offline" error.)
Here are the steps I then followed to fix problem:
1. I unplugged my HTC One from the computer.
2. Downloaded and installed Android Studio from the Android Developers’ site into my Applications folder
3 Updated my Platform Tools, as follows:
Control-clicked on the Android Studio Application and selected “Show Package Contents” from the pulldown menu.
Followed this path to the platform tools: Android Studio/sdk folder/platform-tools folder/adb & fastboot
Option copied both adb and fastboot from platform tools to my user directory ~/Android/HTCOneRoot.
Closed Android Studio
4. Restarted the computer.
5. Launched Terminal and typed cd Android/HTCOneRoot( my user directory where my adb and fastboot are stored)
6. Typed into my terminal the command, “./adb version”
Following this command prompt, Terminal responded with “Android Debug Bridge version 1.0..3.1. (Yes!!)
7. Typed into Terminal, ./adb devices
My device did not show up right away!
8. So, I unplugged my device. Shut down my Mac and restarted it.
9. Relaunched Terminal and typed cd Android/HTCOneRoot
10. Typed ./adb kill-server
11. Then typed, .adb start-server
Terminal responded with: daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
daemon started successfully *
12. Plugged in device again, and the device dialog about RSA appeared. (Whew!)
13. Clicked “OK” on the dialogue box.
14. Now typed ./adb devices and my device's serial number shows up, followed by the word "device" (not "device offline")
14 All done! No more device offline errors.

Hey all,

download and extract to a folder of your choice, that's all.

let me also add that post the described method - ./adb devices command came up with the device and serial, but unauthorized.
With the phone connected via usb I went to Dev. Options, unchecked USB Debugging then rechecked it, instantly the confirmation dialog box came up regarding the RSA Key for my laptop. Check the box so it remembers your computer and hit save.

I was having the exact issue described by OP and simply by getting the newest version of ADB and unchecking and rechecking debugging I got the authorization. Thanks all who offered suggested and posted links to files.

and this helped as well
