[Q][Need Help with adb and fastboot] - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am sorry for making a new thread for this reason, but I have tried for about 6 hours of reading forums and trying different drivers, countless reboots, etc and cannot figure out adb or fastboot for the life of me, so please help
I am running Windows 7 64bit, have download and unzipped the android-sdk_r10-windows.zip and have updated the platform-tools and usb drivers revision 4. I plugged my phone in and it immediately found the drivers without me touching anything, and I tried "adb devices" from an elevated cmd prompt and got nothing in return, so I went into device manager and updated the driver software to Google's usb drivers from the SDK and tried once again, but no luck. I then downloaded USBDeview and uninstalled all references to HTC or Android device (while the G1 was unplugged). Plugged G1 back in after un-installation of drivers and it recognized it right away, again no need for drivers. tried "adb devices" and nothing (yes, the phone is fully booted into CM6.1 stable from Cyanogen with a 1.33.2005 HSPL and compatible radio, along with Amon_RA 1.7.0 recovery).
I read in a thread that Hayakuro's SPL has its own usb drivers on http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/ and I downloaded them and went to device manager and updated the drivers to this version...still no adb luck (always running from cmd "run as administrator"). Then I looked into USBDeview to see the properties of the installed drivers...they never changed from Default micrososft windows drivers, where the HTC drivers for the G1 should have had obvious different properties than the default MS drivers.
So I am just plain stuck and have no idea what to do...I've reflashed the HSPL and CM6.1 using AmonRa recovery, still don't know.
I am trying to eventually use fastboot in order to put ezterry's 2708+ kernel and ezterry's gingerbread port on here, but I cannot setup adb or fastboot. As of last night @ 2:30am (CST) I had adb working, but not fastboot (while in Recovery mode) and now while in a full boot, adb and fastboot refuse to work.
I have read through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 and followed all directions (except for using the newest android sdk .zip package
I'm also wondering about using HTC's specific "fastboot.exe" on their developers page or the "fastboot.exe" included in the SDK?
Hopefully I have explained everything that you would need to help me solve this unrelenting PITA (Pain in the A$$)

This is why XP beats the **** out of Vista & Windows 7.
Have you followed this?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#Win7
And if yes then I have to ask what is your current spl and radio? Had trouble helping someone last night get it sorted on Windows 7 also, the perfect example of how stupid Microsoft think their users are that they now better than the users on how they want their machines setup.

What a cup of coffee can do for the brain ;-)

I can see how XP is better for a development platform since it doesn't have all the bells and whistles I....never use haha
And I just got it to work!!!! I used Ohsaka's superwipe (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834812) re-flashed the radio 2.22.19.26I.zip, then the spl-signed.zip (hboot 1.33.2005) from http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/ and then Cyanogen's CM6.1 for Dream and performed a full boot and plugged in the G1 and it recognized it immediately and installed drivers for it ran an elevated command prompt and "adb devices" (while in full boot) and "fastboot devices" (while in fastboot) works! I think the reason was I had never completely wiped my phone with the aforementioned SuperWipe v2 and/or maybe the updated radio 2.22.23.02 was messing up some low-level functionality of the spl
Mods feel free to edit/delete this, but I feel this would be a good addition into the adb/fastboot guide/sticky on the front page, because this specific situation called for a complete wipe of the phone and flashing an older radio in order for fastboot to work

[Q] fastboot-device not recognized issue

Yes, I have searched... ALL OVER!
I have the new 1.6 sdk installed. I'm running the Cyanogen 4.1.999 ROM Donut/1.6. I have adb working. But, I can NOT get fastboot to recognize my device.
I have tried the following:
I have uninstalled the mass storage device - problem here is that Windows automatically installs the drivers again and I CAN'T stop it!
I have gone into the device manager/mass storage device and instructed it to update the drivers using the new 1.6 sdk. The message I received was that I was using the most up to date drivers.
I have found additional tips to solve this problem if I was running Linux. But, I can't find anything I haven't tried for Windows 64-bit....
You even title your question Q and don't post in the Q&A section?
Sorry, I didn't realize I was still in the Android Dev section when I started the thread. I was in a hurry.
If a Moderator will please move this to the Q&A section!
you are running fastboot from the SPL arent you...if not you need to boot up with (Cam+Power)
you need the engineering spl, hardspl, or haykuro spl for fastboot. you also need to make sure fastboot is active on the phone (make sure it says fastboot on it in the bootloader. if not, press the back button)
Yes, sir done all of the above. ADB works great. Boot into spl - shows Fastboot USB. I just get "waiting for device" in the command window. This should be a windows setting, driver install process, or something that either I am missing, doing wrong, or that I don't have installed. But, I have attempted everything I can find on the net. I worked at it for about three hours the other night. The wife was pissed b/c I was on the computer for so long.
Well is fastboot devices showing up under device manager?
it is most likely a driver error. note that if you have haykuro's spl, he has different drivers for it. you will need to get them from his google code page
ok I'm trying to get the PSGroove so what is fastboot? An app? Please explain

If you cannot get the sdk usb drivers to work for you when your entering into fastboot, try installing htc sync. It has additional drivers that may work. I have attached a driver pack that i use.

[BEGGING FOR HELP] ADB & Windows 7

USB/MicroSD mount is working, but I cannot get ADB to work. This is really pissing me off. I had it working fine on Vista but I'm a dumbass and decided to upgrade to Win7 Ultimate.
Device Manager does not show "Android Composite ADB Interface" or "Nexus One" or anything that looks remotely like that.
The instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=613054 -- do not work for me, as you can see in the screenshot I've provided below, nothing shows up.
SCREENSHOT (same also attached in case something happens to the link): http://imgur.com/uoaWH.jpg
1. The Android SDK is installed.
2. Java JDK 64 & 32 bit versions are both installed.
3. Plugged in my phone, turned on USB Debugging, nothing happened. Device manager list didn't change at all. No alerts near the systray from Win7.
4. I used "USB Deview" and uninstalled everything that looked like "Google" or "HTC" (saw nothing that said HTC or Android, just Google).
5. After #4, gave this POS a reboot, no change when plugging the phone in.
I have the driver downloaded, separately, as well as the one that comes with the Android SDK.
I'm at a complete loss.
Help is deeply, truly, appreciated, and I'll be clicking on some "DONATE" links if you can help me fix this.
EDIT: RESOLVED
Windows7 didn't like this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702191
But it loves this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714184

Yes.
And USB debugging is enabled.
I can mount the SD, but it looks like Windows thinks my phone is nothing more than a storage device. The ADB crap is not showing up in the Device Manager like it did on Vista, nor is there *anything* that says "Nexus One" except in... see new screenshot.

Is your Nexus running 2.2?
I had this exact problem as soon as I updated to 2.2; Windows 7 simply refuses to accept the device.
Put your device in recovery mode and see if fastboot can detect it. For me it can, but ADB and DDMS both think nothing is connected when the phone is on and in debug mode.
I have a HTC Magic as well which works absolutely fine (even when running CM6, which is 2.2 based) but the Nexus on 2.2 is just a no go. If you've unlocked your bootloader you could downgrade to 2.1 again. I never had problems on Win7 with 2.1.
Your only other option is to add your comments to the bug, here: code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9437 (sorry, I'm still not allowed to post proper links yet)
It seems very few people are experiencing this (or reporting it when they do) so my hopes for them fixing it are pretty low.
Are you on version R3 of the USB driver?
What happens when you plug in the phone with usb debugging turned on (on the status bar) ?
Does it ask for a driver? if so manually point it to C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver (may differ)
below is a SS of the driver files being uses on my win-7 64 bit desktop.
Try something for me. I am having the same as you but try this. Boot your phone in recovery mode and see if adb works then. My pc sees the phone as adb in recovery but it doesn't see it as adb on the home screen. Not sure why this is but it worked at one time.

Holy ****.
I love you.
I've been pulling my hair out. Seriously.
I booted into recovery, plugged the phone in, Windows tried installing drivers, but failed, then I saw "Nexus One" listed in Device Manager, and after installing the drivers that came with the SDK, the "Android Phone" and "Android Composite ADB Interface" stuff shows up in the device manager, and adb commands work... when my phone is booted into Recovery.
Recovery was the key.
Thank you!!!!!!
Could the ROM I'm using have anything to do with this?
ADB recognizes the device when I'm recovery, and the "adb push" commands do their thing, but I don't see the files being pushed where I'm pushing them to.
Do I just have to enable the "USB toggle" thing?
I just installed Win 7 and used these directions from the android developers website and everything worked flawlessly from the getgo:
http:// developer.android.com/sdk/index.html/
Hmmm, correct url, not working, 404, maybe it'll work if you copy/paste and take the spaces out from between // and developer.
What recovery image are you using? I've had good luck with ClockworkMod and it's 'mount system' option as far as push/pull while in recovery.
IT WAS THE ROM.
I went back to the ROM I was using previously, and ADB WORKS FINE NOW IN WINDOWS 7.
I was using this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702191

Nothing worked!
Completely wiped and, went back to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714184

Something had to be wrong....that's stable rom. There's more than one custom rom that has it for a base.

I'm not knocking the ROM or the developer of the ROM, but I made a backup, wiped everything, flashed the MCR ROM again, went back to the same problem.
Putting the other ROM back... no more problem. ADB commands work fine, and Windows7 sees my phone.

fastboot commands stopped working??

ok have used fastboot many times
recently flashed AmonRa recovery 2.0
now i want to flash AmonRa 2.2.1 but fastboot commands yield nothing
fastboot devices does nothing, trying flash commands and says "waiting for device"
computer device manager shows error for HTC bootloader
"Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)"
ive tried updating usb drivers, says all up to date
im not sure what is going on. Anyone have any ideas??
i still have .33 HBOOT if that is relevant
i think for now i will flash AmonRa via terminal, but i think it would be better to fix this
Thanks for any help
RellikZephyr
Anybody have any ideas?
I'm guessing I'm missing some driver or something in windows
Please help, it is very inconvenient for a flash junkie
Thanks

Check the state of your Windows drivers, try to force-reinstall them. You guessed right, it's Windows, not the phone.

Fastboot Troubles

I just recently got into modding my N1 a few weeks ago and finally hit my first snag:
Original root was through superoneclick, so bootloader is still locked. I flashed over to stock GRI40 OTA without realizing (stupidly) that flashing
it would also flash over my RA recovery and unroot my phone. Now, superoneclick is incompatible with GRI40, so I can't re-root through that, and I'm having trouble
with unlocking the bootloader through fastboot.
I get no response from ADB or fastboot in windows cmd prompt when I boot phone to FASTBOOT.
the command "fastboot devices" gives me a repeat of the same prompt with no error. (I can't get fastboot to work in normal debugging mode either, and I don't know if it usually will, because this is the first time I've used it.)
the command "adb devices" gives me response-- "list of devices attached" with nothing below (ADB works fine in debugging mode though).
I thought it might be a driver problem, but "Android bootloader Interface" driver is on the device manager list while phone is in fastboot, and seems to be properly
installed; I can't seem to find another suitable driver to update it to anyways.
Beyond that, there don't seem to be any other drivers running in the device manager either.
It's to the point where I'm considering taking the long way around and re-rooting through passimg, but that may not work anyways from what I've been reading, and that still won't fix my fastboot issue.
Any ideas on why I can't get fastboot to work?
my devise manager lists it as 'Android 1.0' when connected with fast boot..
if the drivers were installed on their own, then uninstal them.. and manually update the drivers (download them yourself)
that might help.. idk..
Sent from my nexus one
I think that may be part of the problem because I'm not seeing Android 1.0 on the device manager list. I do have an unknown device on there, but I can't update the driver with any of the Google USB drivers. Also, I'm pretty sure it's not my N1 because I'll unplug the N1, delete the unknown device, and scan for hardware changes and it will pop up again, so I don't think it has anything to do with my phone.
Put your phone in to fast boot, plug the phone in to a different port on your computer. If you have been plugging it in to the front, plug it in to the back. If you have been plugging it in to the back, plug it in to the front.
This should force windows to re-detect your device and it will hopefully install the missing drivers you're needing...
That was a good idea, but I had no luck with that one either. Thanks though.
Alright, shreyas said device is "Android 1.0" from windows device manager when the phone is in fastboot. Why does mine say "Android Bootloader Interface" and is this the case for everyone else?
Even more interestingly, I'll uninstall it, manually install whatever driver I chose for it, and that installation will fail. Then, I'll uninstall it again and have 'puter automatically scan for hardware, "android 1.0" pops up as one of the unknown devices but then gets reassigned as "android Bootloader Interface" after automatically installing drivers.
Oh yeah, I'm running Windows 7 64.
The drivers mentioned here didn't help either

another umm stupid thing mayb, did you try out adb wireless..?
Have you tried using the PDANet drivers? Those are the ones that I've had the best luck with on my Win7 x64 laptop.
EDIT: Seems you have...
I'd recommed using an application called USBDeView (I think?) to manually uninstall all USB drivers for Android/HTC/ADB/NexusOne/etc, and THEN installing the PDANet drivers.
Thanks for your help. I ended up downloading "superboot," which has fastboot on it, and it works just fine. I don't know what the deal is with the fastboot that came with the SDK but my computer just doesn't seem to like it. I checked and rechecked all commands and file directories, and I just don't get it...oh well, I hope this helps others.
Thanks again.

[Q] HTC One fastboot devices returns blank

Short story: can't get identifier token, stuck on "waiting for device".
Hi everyone I have scanned around and feel confident I have a unique or difficult situation trying to root my HTC One. I have the phone drivers installed, the latest 4.1.0.001 msi to be precise, and the phone responds more or less to the computer when it's in Android. So the issue is with fastboot state, for which I tried the normal HTC drivers, then other drivers I was able to find for Fastboot around XDA, and finally the Universal Naked Driver which supports HTC One for ADB. I am able to use the command adb reboot-fastboot and then I return a blank list from the command adb devices or fastboot devices. I have PDA net on the phone, and have it set to "connect automatically". There is a sign that something is awry when I plug the phone up to the PC and PDAnet immediately returns "can't connect, HTC Sync Error = -1". I went into windows and allowed unsigned drivers for ADB, and uninstalled other drivers, deleted files, and rebooted each time I switched drivers in attempt to get a response from the phone in Fastboot.
usb debugging is enabled. In fastboot, the Universal Naked driver returns the following error:
Port_#0004.Hub_#0003
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.
Btw Universal Naked Driver seems to be the MOST functional returning a lot of info about the device, and the second driver I dl'ed was apparently for HTC One X and didn't work at all.
Shortcuts I have taken: yeah I didn't install the entire android SDK I just got the package off XDA and also tried Hasoon's solution. I didn't install the entire large HTC Sync app either, but I don't think either of these are required.
Basically on my ATT htc one, I will never get this thing unlocked if it is REFUSING to recognize the device while it's in Fastboot, halting the process by making a bootloader unlock impossible.
Plz help and I won't return it for an S4!! I don't wanna. A beer to he who saves me the trip back to ATT store.

i would say you havent installed the drivers. best thing to download to get your HTC one to recognize in any mode is the HTC sync manager. i know its kinda annoying but the phone will get recongized in every mode and the initial plug in just requires a few minutes to detect, download, and install the drivers.

I did try the "stripped" HTC One drivers found here on XDA.. I mean http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217396 seems pretty straightforward!
But yes at this point in the game why not give the full bloatware a try, thx
are you using the all in one toolkit? i have also found that installing the htc sync software helped alot of people with driver problems
Is your phone actually in fastboot mode?
Gave it a shot; my win 8 laptop still has no ability to recognize the phone in device manager with HTC BMP, Sync Manager, or HTC Driver Installer.. which are the the 3 related programs I've installed.
The HTC driver recognizes the device (while in Fastboot) as My HTC, while the Universal Naked Driver calls it something different I believe, but neither are working to allow adb or fastboot to list the device, and both drivers have the same error as to why the device can't start: "a request for the USB BOS descriptor failed"

Hey Ben Pope thanks for asking, yes it's in the white screen saying ***LOCKED*** in pink at the top. And yes I get into fastboot by adb reboot-bootloader most of the time because it's easier than the button pressing (which I've done also).
One weird thing I did notice is that "FASTBOOT" is shown with a red background when the device goes into the mode, however if I use the volume up/dn buttons and navigate, the text changes to "FASTBOOT USB", and persists that way until it's re-booted. Don't know if that matters, but at least if it's totally abnormal, there could be something funky going on in the firmware.
Thanks.

I tried Hasoon's toolkit but because it calls fastboot oem getidentifiertoken or whatever it is, the result is "waiting for device" which stops the process in its tracks even while the phone is in the white screen, where it got from responding to the prior command the toolkit sent which I believe is adb reboot-bootloader.
Currently I installed the 48mb "stripped" sync software from the link a few posts prior; do you think I should go with the non-stripped version?

when it says waiting for device you have to close that cmd screen and if your phone says fastboot usb it will start but you have to manually close the first window
hey SkinsFan, I tried the thread here and downloaded the ADB drivers to replace my Android 1.0 device. Other than those new drivers, I had done a lot of those steps. However, the PC says "The third party INF does not contain digital signature information", and rejects the ADB drivers linked from there, despite already allowing unsigned drivers in Windows settings.
Actually now I can't re-install the "naked driver" and matters are worse because the PC is now saying a hash file is missing for them, despite being installed an hour ago. So I guess I'll restart and try again, possibly unistalling HTC Sync since it was the new addition.
as far as closing the cmd window, this isn't doing anything to make the device recognized by the PC and it isn't therefore showing in adb devices or fastboot devices.
Still working on it thanks!

when your phone is in bootloader does it say fastboot usb at the top?
i think the links for drivers are for samsung devices he said its copied from his other thread. you need to get drivers from somewhere else
As I said, after "adb reboot-bootloader", left untouched, it says "FASTBOOT", but when I use a volume key to navigate just one click, it changes its tune to "FASTBOOT USB". I don't know whats going on with that ...
The samsung drivers are there but I believe Android ADB interface drivers can be universal , not sure, but now can't get back my Naked driver! working on that now

@skinsfanbdh yes. But again, it starts off intially (before a volume keypress) as "fastboot" not "fastboot USB", then changes.

I am open to that! Could you give a preview on what you're thinking? Have teamviewer running. I will warn you I've lost ability to install the Universal Naked Driver via a "missing hash file" despite having it installed hours ago.

Sorry for the very slow reply. Unfortunately, we won't know why HTC didn't play nicely with my Lenovo/Win8 laptop. However, I was quick to try a different older netbook I had lying around. At first, nothing happened, and I got used to the Sense UI enough to tolerate it.
But, I couldn't wifi tether and a few other unacceptable details, so I tried again last week with the same netbook that didn't seem to work the first time, and voila! Flawless. Maybe a reboot of that kicked it into gear, but both ADB and Fastboot were recognizing the HTC as a specific device, as opposed to the lenovo which found a ghost device with no name.
I am guessing too many android devices were installed and in the registry as USB devices, disorienting the PC, even though they were uninstalled, perhaps their drivers lingered as shared drivers. In theory I had S3 S4, HTC, possibly S2 and Motorola drivers all present.
The key is, keep the drivers on a folder on your phone with adb fastboot etc, and try a couple diff laptops. You'll know it worked when the device is recognized via "devices" with its unique number in both adb and fastboot.
Now running Revolution HD Google Play after trying CM 10.2 and Revolution HD Sense. CM did not work very smoothly with a lot of force crashes (navigation and music) and I can strongly recommend RevolutionHD google play edition.
Beware though, the first wipe takes out all the contacts and pictures etc, unfortunately, because I thought they would be spared.
