I have read several guides concerning how to take screenshots on your unrootet Android device using the Android SDK and the Dalvik Debug Monitor, guides such as this one:
downloadsquad.com/2008/10/22/taking-screenshots-on-an-android-based-phone/
But it doesn't seem to work on my HTC Legend. When i run DDMS, my device isn't found within the program. Is there simply a compatibility issue with newer Android phones such as the Legend, or is it possible that I am doing something wrong? Has anyone else got it to work?
Perhaps this is a really lame problem for people more experienced with this stuff, but please help a newbie!
Working perfekt for me.

Yep, but your device, is it rooted? Perhaps that is the difference then.
Oh, and i read somewhere that you had to have device specific drivers i you use Windows for this, what would that be in this case?
Root is of course NOT needed.
But you must have adb drivers installed.
But they should been installed together with the adb-package
Check in your system devices what mode th USB phone is connected/called.
In windows 7x64
my phone is connected as:

My system doesn't seem to recognize the device as anything specific at all. It's just an unknown USB-device. Any ideas why this is the case?
Update #1: After a little research it all comes down to that my Legend doesn't seem to install the ADB drivers correctly. Would a hard-reset help here?
Uptade #2: Solved it, added a command line which i found on google to the USB-drivers that came with the SDK, to make it support the HTC Legend.

sorry if this clutters up the forum for a bit, i promise to delete it when it dies.
i've recently started using adb when i flashed over to 5.0.2h. i followed the instructions in the tutorial and was able to use adb. 2 nights ago, i began doing more complicated commands (for me) and tried to push a .apk into /system/app.
i wasn't immediately successful but i eventually got it in there and decided to reboot my phone. after this reboot, however, i lost the use of adb. i tried upgrading to the usb drivers haykuro posted, uninstalling them and re-trying the old one, rebooting the computer, rebooting my phone and none of it works. i've since wiped my phone and flashed it with the latest h build from haykuro (thanks haykuro!) but that didn't work either. now i'm trying to see if the 1.5 sdk will work.
i was wondering if anyone would have an idea about what i should do next. should i reinstall adb? try it on another computer? another cable? it's not the worst loss in the world, my phone is fine and my usb cable still works in the conventional way. i even checked to see if i somehow lost root and i was able to get su on the terminal emulator. but i still want the use of adb for nandroid, if nothing else.
thanks in advance!
I had the same problem after flashing to the G rom. I couldn't get ADB to work but fastboot recognized my phone and I was able to flash back to my backup. First time I did a complete wipe before flashing, second time, no wipe, made no difference in either case for me
When you plug Dream into your computer, does it show up in the Device Manager list? What is the entry? Hopefully it says HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface
I just had the same problem, I had to update the driver and it is working fine now.
Which driver did you use? I downloaded the one on the saphire port project page, but couldn't find a way to install it. When I open device manager, there is no ADB interface listed.

yes, that's what it comes up as. and i've tried the usb drivers from haykuro's page and they didn't work before and after rebooting my computer.
i'm on vista and it wont accept the updated drivers. it downloads the standard removable memory drivers and wont let me update to anything else. anybody have any ideas
just installed the 1.5 apk and adb and it works again. for people running haykuro builds, i would suggest trying this if you have adb problems. just intall the 1.5 sdk as normal, copy adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll into \system32 and you should be good.
unless requested i will delete this thread in two days. thanks everyone!
Hmm... i tried that and its still not working ):
Ive tried like 10 different USB drivers from various sites including this one, downloaded the 1.5 SDK and installed it, wen through several reboots and it always says either that the driver is for the wrong platform, the most up to date one is ALREADY installed (HTC Bootloader), or that Windows couldn't find any drivers.
Under ADB Interface in device manager is "%USB\VID_0BB4&PID0FFF.DeviceDescRelease%"
did you try and update the driver through the device manager? i've heard that it's the only way to update it for some people.
I had already Posted & Solved This Issue here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493703
Go Check It, It ll work for sure....
90% of the time the problem is with the drivers etc. Use this tutorial to fix that : http://goo.gl/OS3Vi
If you still encounter the problem then you can use ADBwireless available at google play to wirelessly connect your device to the computer
Hope it helps :highfive:
Hi
I actually replying about the bible quote you have mentioned? you into theology?
Note: It does not work on 2.2.1 Wildfire's (i.e. - Any bought after Feb - March 2011)
I first want to thank everyone at UnrEVOked for what they've done. I'm posting this because there aren't any really detailed instructions. Its an easy enough root, but I know I've been there before and even the simplest things can be tough if things aren't laid out. So here's a step by step tutorial.
Due to some bugs, Unrevoked 3.2 was taken down shortly after being released, but the updated version is now LIVE! So obviously we're going to bring you a video tutorial on how to do it! Thanks to the guys at Unrevoked for giving us this simple solution to rooting the HTC Buzz (Wildfire).
LINK TO VIDEO WALKTHROUGH FOR HOW TO ROOT THE WILDFIRE
◄●REQUIRED DOWNLOADS●►
EVERYONE: Unrevoked3. Download the version for your OS.
WINDOWS USERS: unrEVOked modified USB driver
◄●How to Install HBOOT Drivers (Windows Users ONLY)●►
If you're using Windows, you're going to have to install the HBOOT drivers first. You can follow this video tutorial:
How to Install HBOOT Drivers
and follow along with these written instructions provided by the Unrevoked team:
Download the unrEVOked modified USB driver and expand it somewhere you will remember.
Turn off your phone, then boot it into the HBOOT menu by holding power and volume down.
On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
Connect the phone to your Windows machine with a USB cable and wait for the phone to say HBOOT USB PLUG on screen.
Open Device Manager.
Click Start, then right click on Computer, then click Properties, then click Device Manager.
Under Other devices, you should now see the Android 1.0 device.
Right click on Android 1.0 and click Update Driver Software:
Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
Click on Browse and select the Android USB Driver folder on on your computer, click ok, then click next.
You should get a status bar indicating that the driver is installing. If you get any warnings, just click Ok.
Your driver should install.
Click Close and make sure Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone.
◄●Instructions●►
Make sure you downloaded Unrevoked3 for your OS.
If you're on Windows, make sure you "uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). They will cause problems" (Unrevoked.com).
Plug your phone into your computer with USB.
Drag down from the notification bar on your phone and select "Charge Only" and "Remember this"
Make sure your phone has USB Debugging turned on by going to Menu>>Settings>>Applications>>Development and checking USB debugging.
Run the Reflash application that you downloaded.
Unrevoked will run its processes. Follow the few instructions it gives and thats it!
You're now rooted!
EDIT: If that doesn't work for you, follow these instructions:

Got my wildFire Rooted!
Most ways here didn't work to get it going, but here is how i got it working:
01. Installed HTC Synch
02. Ran HTC Synch with WildFire Connected
03. Closed HTC Synch
04. Downloaded Unrevoked 3 and ran it
05. Let it do the whole process (it did everything by itself (rebooting the wildfire in hboot mode etc...)
05. Installed HBOOT USB Drivers when it asked for it
06. At some stage it says something like rooting ... safe to restart if it doesn't work, it stays on that screen, close unrevoked3
07. Disconnected WildFire
08. Uninstalled HTC Synch (only the program, not the drivers)
09. Connected Wildfire to PC
10. Ran UNREVOKED3 again
11. HTC Wildfire is rooted now

No problems in this way, when you plug in the phone

I did the same steps in my PC, and it worked.

Hi all
I am wondering if any of your can help.
I have connected my rooted Xperia Z1 to my Windows 7 x86 PC and it installed the drivers automatically. I have enabled USB debugging in the developer options and confirmed that ADB is running on the device.
When i start ADB on the PC and then get it to display a list of devices there is nothing shown and the same when i try to use the wait-for-device command too.
It is shown in device manager as Sony Xperia Z1 under Portable Devices with a hardware ID of COMP\SONY&C6903&1.0
Any help on getting ADB to see the device would be most appreciated
Thanks

Hello mate, check out this post I have written a while ago. Usually ADB problems arise if you have other interfering software running or if you had installed ADB drivers for different devices in the past:

Thank you for your reply.
It is more than likely the second one as there are drivers probably installed for the Dell Streak, Galaxy Note, Kindle Fire HD, Sensation XE and now the Z1
** UPDATE **
Thank you, that worked perfectly, although i did accidentally uninstall my mouse driver lol as i removed the USB Composite Device entries too as that is what Windows reported it as first time round.
Now though it found the ADB interface seperately from the phone so all working now and tested in ADB too

My pc at home works just fine...my work pc on the other hand has this same issue. Home pc is 32 bit, work pc is 64 bit. It's either something driver related or because it's 64 bit, I haven't had a chance to really diagnose yet. I would start by completely removing htc drivers and try again. Or maybe try a different pc if no luck getting it to work. This weekend I will try to get it working on my work pc and report back what I figured out.
That's the weird thing about it. I've reinstalled drivers, put it on different computers, x64 bit included and nothing works it just says device not

From what I can find about the "Offline" status is that you need to update your Android-Sdk there have been quite a few updates recently.
Also try this for configuring your drivers correctly
(If you are using Windows 8.1 this will most likely not work)
On your PC go to device manager and find your phone(usually M7WLS), right click and select properties
Select the driver tab
Select update driver
Select browse my comp
Let me pick
Look for ADB USB device or similar should be one of the first couple choices
Select MyHTC install and you should be good
That's the thing my old sdk was working fine that's the thing I have the drivers updated ok. It recognized my device but it shows my phone to be offline.

From what I understand the CMD widow was updated if you use the older version it will show your device as offline
Well I got further this time it says device not authorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device.
It's progress it seems but I never got a confirmation on my device.

Uninstall everything HTC
Unplug your phone
Reboot your PC
Install these drivers
Plug in phone and let it install the drivers(it will install drivers in recovery,bootloader, and booted to your OS)
Then do the steps I posted if you still have problems.
I followed what you did, and followed the instruction you posted earlier as well. I went to Driver tab and tried to update the drive and there wasn't an option for ADB USB Devices. I unchecked the recommended box and still came up with nothing :/ Is there anything else I need to install?
Sorry to bother you again

I went through the same problem, the correct procedure is to remove the last driver from the device list reboot than install the nexus universal driver, there is a post about the naked driver which i used and worked fine. i spent three days try to resolve the same issue. good luck
I had the same issue yesterday. Download the drivers from koush and see if that helps.
So the nexus universal driver will work for the HTC one if I uninstall the driver that is listed in the device manager? I believe it just says HTC ONE currently, I'm not army computer atm. And could you possibly link the post with the naked driver you used. Thanks
