its that my pc isnt detecting my g1. it says no device detected. PLEASE HELP.
idk maybe I need a way to usb debug without activating?

If you have Windows Vista or 7 you can right click my comptuer > Manage > Device Manager (or just call up device manager in xp) and look for ADB Interface.
Right Click HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface and click Uninstall.
Unplug and replug the USB and it should re-detect.
nevermind me =)
Same problems
I am having the same problems as "samrozzi".
Phone is OK with Reboot command.
Will not recognize "Setprop Persist etc".
My device manager shows (HTC Android Phone USB Device) in "Disk Drives" but nothing about ADB interface.
Also you guys are saying
"Go to Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging (check)
Settings where? On the phone? not possible without getting past the registration screen.
In SDK ?
In ADB ?
On Computer somewhere ?
I have un-installed the driver for the phone. I reconnect and turn the phone on. The computer says HTC Google phone--hardware is installed and ready to use. Then it goes away and doesn't seem to be of any further use.
Please help, my brain is starting to sizzle from info-overload.

did you install the driver
USBDeview
Try this:
- get USBDeview : http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
- unplug phone from PC
- in USBDeview delete all drivers that have anything to do with HTC
- plug phone in PC; drivers should now install correctly IF you have downloaded and installed them before
If the above procedure does not work reinstall drivers (from SDK) and start all over.

Run the setupsdk.exe and it should be under "available" for download, it will be called something like Usb Drivers r2 or something
If you have windows, you will need these drivers to use ADB or Fastboot with your Nexus 4. The long method of getting this is downloading the SDK and running it. I have extracted the drivers and put it into a rar file for easy use.
Follow these steps if you haven't plugged your phone into your computer before.
1. Download the file.
2. Extra the files into a folder.
3. Plug your phone in.
4. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
5. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
If you already installed other drivers and they don't work for you. Download the drivers below and follow these steps:
1. Enable USB Debugging on your phone.
2. Plug your phone into your computer.
3. Go to Device Manager on your computer and locate your device. It will either be under "Android Devices" or "Other Devices" depending whether drivers have been installed or not.
4. Right click on your phone and select "Uninstall."
5. In the box that appears, check the option to "Delete the driver software for this device" then proceed.
6. When that is done, go back to Device Manager and refresh.
7. Locate your phone and right click to select "Update Driver Software."
8. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
9. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
10. Unplug your phone and restart your computer.
11. Plug it back in and everything should work.

Thanks to efrant for clarifying exactly how to manually select your drivers.
I would suggest everyone download Android SDK.
You have a Nexus device right?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Some people may not want that, or want to have the drivers on their other computer. I for one like having the drivers, I only download the platform-tools folder instead of the whole sdk.
So, thanks OP.
OK... I DL the SDK I'm on win and it says it can't find java even after I DL from java. Any ideas?

Yep, I never needed the whole SDK before. I only download the platform tools too.
Have any other ADB drivers installed? Because then you need to uninstall those:
Go into command prompt and write:
set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc
Delete all devices including driver software in the "Android Device" section.
Then reinstall the Nexus 4 drivers.
If that still doesn't work, update the driver when connected with usb debugging on and manually add by rightclicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software", then "Let me pick from a list..." then "Show all devices" and then Have disk.
Then you simply point to the driver and select the "Android ADB Interface" (Or something like that) it also has driver for bootloader and composite, bootloader is for fastboot, can't remember what composite is for, but you shouldn't use those.
the stuff from Fisker didn't did it for me
the driver is installed and the device is in debug mode,
but i can't see in adb devices,
any idea?

Go to Device Manager on your PC. If debug mode is enabled, you should see your device listed as an Android phone or something of the sort. If it has a yellow exclamation mark or some sort of symbol next to it, then that means the drivers aren't properly installed. Assuming that is the case, follow FISKER_Q's directions:
Right clicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software." Select the usb_driver folder that you extracted and you should be good to go.

Did you enable debugging on your phone yet?
If not, go to Settings > About phone, then tap on "Build Number" 7 times. Go back to settings and you will see developer options. Go in there to enable USB debugging.
Having the same issue. Fastboot works fine, however I am unable to use ADB (device not listed, however is recognized in device manager without any issues). I have tried uninstalling the drivers, but it re-installs them automatically when I plug the phone back in. Debug mode is enabled.
Edit: Fixed by uninstalling the drivers through the SDK manager, then uninstalling and checking the box to delete the driver software in device manager. Re-installed using instructions and now it works in ADB.

Try leaving the phone plug in. Go to Device Manager. Find the ADB drivers and uninstall it. While in Device Manager, have it scan for new changes. You should see your phone appear. Right click it and manually install the drivers.

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled through Developer Options on your phone. Once done, plug the phone into your computer. Go to Device Manager on your computer. You should either see something listed under Android Devices or Other Devices. If you see something under Android Devices, uninstall it. If you see it under Other Devices, right click it and browse to manually install the drivers. Select the folder that has the drivers in my original post.

I had to put a check in the box next to "Delete the driver software for this device" to get this to work. Otherwise Device Manager will keep detecting the old drivers.

if your booted into a rom, do you have usb debugging enabled ?
its in system, developer options, if you cant see developer options then goto about - software information - more - and tap build number 7 times, it will count down and eventually say you are now a developer, you should now see developer options in your system menu.
when you enable usb debugging and plug your phone into the computer.....eventually.....and sometimes it takes a while, you will get a pop up on your phone saying your computer wants to connect to this device, allow or deny, I suggest you allow.
if you don't get the message, then with the phone still plugged into the computer, open developer options again and disable usb debugging, then enable it again.

im at a loss, sorry I couldn't help any further, but if its doing it with different devices, it has to be a software issue, especially as you say its working in recovery and bootloader, the only thingf I picked out from your picture is it states your adb is out of date, but you say you've tried that too, all I can suggest is you try this one.

why are you using an adb shell to push the file? push the file using adb and then enter the shell to chmod the "ff" file (I suppose you are pushing firewater but your renamed the file to "ff" ?) And btw "adb devices" will not output your device ID from an adb shell.
Code:
adb devices
adb push ff /data/local/tmp
then
Code:
adb shell
su ---> [COLOR="blue"]to get a # prompt[/COLOR]
chmod 775 /data/local/tmp/ff [COLOR="Blue"]--> to give read/write/execute permission[/COLOR]

if you had turned on "usb debugging" from the developer option menu or i you already have a custom recovery installed, you can use adb to pull your files
adb pull <remote> <locale>

e.g
Code:
adb pull /data/media/0/Pictures C:\Backup
and you should also see your phone storage from your computer when its booted in the system.

What error message from windows are you getting when you select the ADB driver in device manager?
For Windows 10 in case it's an unsigned driver issue.
Post #84 linux VM solution if your absolutely hitting a wall.
i cannot select the adb drivers, when i try to manually select it, by going the the folder and clicking install, windows says i already have the best drivers installed. if i try to right click and install the inf, it says it is invalid for my computer.
i also have a macbook that i can try this on, are there instruction for a mac?
i'll take a look at the vm thing, but i have no idea about vm's.
thanks.

From the images you posted it looks like you should be able to at least poll your device using the windows version of adb, and start rooting. I'll presume you already have adb installed somewhere on your system, "c:\adb", or something like that.
You should be able to poll your Fire device serial number.
Open a command prompt as administrator, goto your adb directory. On the command line type the following.
adb start-server
adb devices
adb kill-server
On your fire device you should see a popup asking you to approve the USB connecting from xxxxxxx hardware id when you try to poll it.
If you get this far you can proceed with the root process for whichever version of Fire OS 5.x.x you have.
i tried that and polling comes up with nothing. after running adb devices, there is no popup on the fire and it lists nothing.

for some reason, on only one out 4 of my win 10 rigs, i had to turn off driver signature enforcement. to do this go to settings, update and security, recovery, advanced startup, restart now. then in the restart menu push, troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings, then restart. when booted choose "Disable driver signature enforcement" (which is option 7 on current build). now try to install the drivers. after successful just do a normal restart to enable the signature enforcement again

Can you verify that, "android debug" mode is turned on in the Fire devices developer settings? At least that was the only way I could reproduce the same message output from "adb devices".
I faut with my win 7 laptop for about an hour with one of my fires. Has the yellow icon on unknown device. Ended up "update driver" "browse for file" "let me choose from a list" picked Android/adb composite device. Adb and fast boot now work. I originally had to install Android studio and some extras to get my first fire to link up. Pm if you need help.
