Am trying to unlock my n1 so I can get to install cyanogen rom but am stuck after installing Android sdk and Usb drivers, am following some steps but am stuck trying to locate the USB driver, this is part of what was stated in the direction (You can check if your Android USB drivers are installed by going to “Printers & Devices” on Windows 7.* (and I think you can check Device Manager for other versions of Windows). I check the device manager on my pc and still didn't locate it,anybody have an idea like where I can find the USB drivers.
this has been discussed 100 times and is also in the "informative links" sticky.
Please do a search. The driver comes with the SDK.

I am currently having issues installing my G1 in development mode on
Vista 64 Premium SP1. I have tried both installing the drivers that
come with the latest SDK and also the ones here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446274
Whenever I plug the phone in it comes up as an unknown USB device
under device manger. When I go to update driver and point the
installer at the correct driver location it either says 'the device
driver is up to date' or when using the have disk option it says 'the
folder specified does not contain a compatible software driver for
your device'.
Any help would be really appreciated - I have been hitting Google for
about 2 hours now!
you have the 1.33.2005 spl you should try these and see if they work
I have the hardest time getting my computer to use the right driver for ADB. When I setup my wife's phone on a vista-64 operating system I first connected with USB enabled and it took me a week of trial-and-error to get the system to use the ADB driver (I don't know the steps that made it work - but it involved several attempts at uninstalling every USB device).
I just got another G1 for a Windows-7 laptop (64-bit) and I did the same thing (hooked up with the USB driver) and I fear another week of trial and error. I know that if I knew what I was doing I could do it in 10-minutes.
Can someone please provide the step-by-step instructions for having it use the ADB driver once it has already found, and is happy with, the regular USB driver? I'm not even sure how to tell which of my multiple installed USB [devices] is for the phone.
Step 1. Install a linux distribution.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 2. Download the SDK and put it in a directory (I use "Android")
install the sdk from http://developer.android.com/sdk/download.html?v=android-sdk_r05-windows.zip
let it update (make sure that usb drivers are selected for download)
plug your phone in
if the drivers aren't automatically installed, point it to the drivers directory (<sdk>\usb_driver)
if your sdk is already installed, just download the drivers using the steps described here http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
4.) Give me a huuuuuug!

Are you using the sdk or did you just install the available driver? I played hell getting the driver to fly with the sdk. Downloaded the driver seperately and connected the phone in usb debugging then navigated to the phone in device manager and pointed it at the driver manually.
windows 7 needs TWO separate drivers, not just the one that you can find in the tools folder that comes from modaco. the second driver can be found in the sdk, which you will have to get from the android developers site.
there are a number of threads about this. look for them
Download the sdk from the android developer site, then download the driver through the update function.
Install droid explorer and Android commander .
both will help you or even setup everything for you .
i have no problems with my nexus one on my theree versions of windows 7 (ultimate, enterprise and home premium) and completed the setup within 30 minutes using both mentioned above
Be sure that Debugging is checked under Settings/Applications/Development
Hello
Im brand new to Android and adb/fastboot.
I have looked at tutorials on youtube all day, and for everybody else their devices just pops up when you type adb devices.
I get nothing
I have done it correctly, because I get all the commands when I type adb/fastboot.
Im running windows8, could that be the problem?
Do I need some kind of extra USB drivers for my google glasses?
I do find my glasses as a camera tho.
EDIT:
So after watching a few more tutorials I understood my problem. Its windows8 usb drivers thats not correct.
I have tried to install correct drivers and edit the .ini files that need editing, but now I encountered a new problem.
Windows wont let me install correct usb drivers for google glass.
When I have device manager open, windows have already installed them as “Portable device – Glass1″
I click uninstall and they disaper from my device list, once I click “scan for new hardware” I can see that they reapper on my device list as other devices. Within 2sec windows autoinstall them as “portable device -glass1″ again.
So I try “update driver software” but this dont work either, I select the correct file and path, but I keep getting this message “windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date”.
Im running windows8.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT2:
As far as all the tutorial movies tell me to disable driver signing I have done so.
If all of the adb commands were working, then chances are you need to enable debugging on your Glass. Settings >> Device info >> Turn on debug
Update:
The way to bypass windows8 and installing usb drivers, is that I need to use the option "Have Disk" and then install usb drivers that way.
All works fine now.
I just upgraded my computer with Windows 10. Everything seemed to work fine with upgrading but when I put my phone into fastboot,the prompt doesn't detect my device anymore (like it did with Windows 7)

and the Google USB driver from SDK tools but my PC still can't find my phone.
Flashing kernels won't help either.
Looked online but I can't seem to find an answer...any ideas to fix this?
you probably need to reinstall the drivers, you can use Flashtool-drivers.exe found in the flashtool/drivers folder.
but you also need to probably disable driver signature enforcement to install it, instructions can be found here:
