[Q] ADB stopped working on Windows 7 - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So ADB worked just fine when I was using the stock 2.1 rom. After upgrading to Cyanogenmod 7 it just stopped. If I open ADB and type a command it returns "no device found" and if I put in "adb devices" it's blank. I'm using Windows 7 64bit. I was only able to find some information, but it's for the mt4g. USB and ADB broken on Win7 What should I do now? Thanks

You did make sure that USB Debugging is on, right?

also try switching ports and/or restarting your computer.

Also make sure drivers are up to date. Had the same problem after flashing Andromeda3.

I believe you need the nexus s drivers installed for cm7.

Heya, I'm facing the same issue.
Captivate usb driver has an yellow triangle with an exclamation mark on it. Gonna try some stuff after I get home today ,if I manage to get it working I post here.

I don't think so, it is still Captivate bootloaders. When i tried cm7 and had to flash back to stock normal drivers worked. Course I have SDK installed don't know if that installs drivers for Nexus S or not. But ya get drivers just in case.
To the op It sounds like a bad cable to me.

I'm pretty sure it's not a bad cable. It still works in all other respects (charging, mounting as usb storage)

YEAH! Fix it!
So do the following :
1) Install Android SDK (developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
2) Make sure to install Google USB drivers package (developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html)
3) After it's installed go to the devices manage , right click Captivate Driver you have issue (yellow triangle) and select to Update driver. Now pick to choose location and go where Google's usb drivers are installed for me (D:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver) and wait till it gets installed.
Hope it helps ! Let me know if you have any doubts.

Did this work for you? I'm doing it right now, but I thought the Google drivers wouldn't work because they're only for ADP's and the Nexus line of devices. I also downloaded (but haven't installed) the Samsung drivers. But I'm pretty sure I already have these, lol.
[Edit]
It worked! Thanks!

Rofl! I said you needed the damn nexus s drivers a few posts ago.
CM7 is based on nexus s firmware. That os has nothing to do with samsung. It's AOSP which is why the google drivers are required.

Lol yeah at first someone said you don't because of like different bootloaders or something like that, I figured it would work since nothing else would

Not to talk poop about anyone else in this thread, but op pay attention to the post count/thanks ratio, that is usually a good indicator to tell if someone knows what they are talking about.
Just sayin...

Thanks, it pays to be more attentive. Could've saved the time of asking another question or confusing a newer member.

I did say i had SDK installed, and I also said you should try it. I just said that since it shared same bootloaders it probably wasn't it. I was wrong though.
But ya I'm still a newb.

No problem, at least you put out a helpful answer. Lol, made me think of another thread I posted awhile back that nobody answered but it had 140-something views!

[GUIDE] One Click How to Root the Incredible with Unrevoked 3.21

I first want to thank everyone at UnrEVOked for what they've done. I'm posting this because the UnrEVOked post doesn't really give any 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 Droid Incredible.
LINK TO VIDEO WALKTHROUGH FOR HOW TO ROOT THE DROID INCREDIBLE
◄●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!
PS - Others have asked elsewhere if it flashes a custom recovery. Yes, it flashes Clockwork
Be sure to wait for S-OFF to install before unplugging phone!

Thanks for reporting that
thanks, one question, maybe more later.
after this is done, then what. do i really need to do anything else. is this where the fun begins, like i really only want to remove the bloatware. but if i want, can i just leave it rooted and do nothing with it. i am a total noobie and even this "one click" thing has me scared and confused. thanks for the post.
Once you're done, you can remove bloatware. And yes, if you so choose, you can do nothing at all

Odin/Rooting Problems

Okay before I get all the "Learn to google" or "Use the search function" let me just go ahead and say, I've searched all over the place before posting.
Okay I recently flashed my phone back to stock to get rid of a few problems. I tried to root with one click root and it failed when I tried to test it with sending the su command so not only was it not rooted it wouldn't allow me to use third party downloads So I am now trying to flash it back to stock again. Now Odin won't recognize my phone at all when its in download mode. I've tried reinstalling drivers and everything and it's like when I use Odin once it won't work again without reinstalling the drivers again.
It's hard to explain my exact problem but basically it's like the drivers keep resetting themselves or something where Odin won't detect my phone. And secondly my one click root no longer seems to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is getting very frustrating.
Edit: Now I am getting the "More than one device detected" error on the super one click.

You should try superoneclick (SuperUser) - It has never failed me
Also, you do not need to be rooted if you're on stock 2.1 Eclair - You can simply change the name of the ROM to update.zip, go into recovery and reinstal package.
As for Odin, I don't know what to suggest other than you could try using the non-one click one.

a) who said one click root will enable 3rd party apps
edit, you do want super one click root as stated above if you dont have that get it. the thread is by clshortfuse and usese the rage against the cage meathod, works on every phone
b) you need busy box before comands work, it is in the market
c)i dont know what your odin problem is, does the box turn yellow when you plug in the phone with in download mode? is this odin one click? odin one click+3button fix? odin files without bootloaders plus full odin? what version of odin? what series number is the phone under the battery? 1006?1007?ect...
Well the problem with moving the update.zip file manually is that my computer will no longer detect my phone regardless what mode my phone is in. And I was using superoneclick
Edit:
A) The Super one click root allows the option to enable non market apps, which has previously worked in the past but doesn't any more.
B) Can't get busybox without rooting
C) SGH-I897

Then it's most likely your computer and not your phone.
Try another usb port, cable;
unistall and reinstall the drivers;
restart your computer.
If none of these work, try on another computer.
After that, it could be the usb port on your phone.
Could I get a link or quick guide on how to uninstall and reinstall drivers.

Umm - Try a different Odin.. Odin3 one click worked for me before.
You can try a non-one click Odin as well, sometimes it works when the other doesn't.
You don't have to connect to your computer either to flash a rom. download a rom with your phone ... Rename THAT update.zip on the phone ... Boot into recovery reinstall packages ... Its probably your computer like was said not the phone.
I reinstalled drivers, still not working. Any ideas?
Ummm when was the last time you made a restore point on your pc? Restoring from a few days prior worked for me when nothing else would, although it was just the dl mode driver that broke in my case ... You can't get it recognized at all ... But still woth a shot.

the latest version of AIO (3.0) uses heimdall instead of odin. i would recommend it
Okay downloaded the AIO tool box, looks pretty solid from what I can tell, will update to see if this fixes my issues.
Well I rooted with the toolbox and I when I try to run root required apps it says that my phone is not rooted or I haven't accepted superuser permissions. I do not receive a notification to accept these permissions however it does appear superuser is installed.
On the bright side I got all my drivers set up correctly.

Need help getting back to stock

I followed this site religiously for nearly the first year that I had my captivate. I've been busy for the last few months and am completely lost on where I am and where I need to go to get my phone back to stock and then updated to the newest rom.
My phone was running CM7 just fine in April (I haven't updated anything since then, I think) but recently began force closing EVERYTIME that I tried to open ANY program. I used cwm and restored my system to what I had previously installed but am getting random reboots (this had never been an issue before).
I've been pretty good about taking care of my phone in the past, but it's been so long since I've messed with this stuff I have no idea what I have installed or what to do to get rid of it.
Right now my phone info says this:
android version 2.3.3
JK3 modem
Kernel version; 2.6.35.7 codeworkc #1
Mod version: Nightly 03042011
Build Number: GRI40
I'd like to get back to stock so I can reorient myself before catching up with current versions.
Thanks

Do you have the phones drivers installed? Do you have Android SDK installed with Nexus S drivers? Did you run ODIN as Admin?
you might want to just keep trying odin. Restart or reboot your computer.. try a different USB port. I had Odin stop recognizing my phone once. All it took was a restart of the computer and has worked fine for me since.
That's what I would suggest
My drivers say they were successfully installed but don't seem to work in download mode. I can drag and drop files without issue when the phone is on.
I don't have SDK installed.
I've tried all my USB ports on each of my computers, restarting, and have even unplugged every USB device except for my phone; no dice.
At this point I'm considering throwing my phone at the wall and running over it a few times to cash in on my warranty and maybe even have a shot at getting a captivate with a working gps.

If you have cwm recovery.. just flash another ROM in recovery. Wipe your caches data and dalvik before you flash and even factory reset. Unless you need gingerbread bootloaders, a lot of ROMs can be flashed right over one another without the whole FTS biz.
*edit* also wanted to mention CM7 is funky with storage space. If you go into terminal emulator in your apps and type "df" ..look for your datadata, make sure your under 90%. Once that fills up you'll start to get more and more force closes. The cure is to move some apps to your SD card.

I recommend you install SDK and install the Nexus S drivers with it. Its stupid but considering CM7 is based of Nexus S phone those drivers might be needed. On other cases it seemed to help.

lol Glad to hear its working, best of luck. On a side note I really do recommend sticking with I897 roms they tend to work better with the phone. I9000's ported ones would be a close second for GB. Just my 2cents. Im a big fan with Cyanogenmod on other devices like HTC and Motorola, but on SGS they still need some work ^^
I've already got cognition 5 up and running.

Clockwork recovery...

Does anyone know an easier way to put clockwork onto my phone? I mean other than (adb).. for some reason it doesn't pick up my phone.. Is there an recovery App coming out soon?

make sure you have debugging mode on and that your Windows or Mac proper LG drivers are installed so that the phone is recognized also put CMD in the same folder as platform tools in sdk manager folder vice versa for files needed to be pushed to phone.
I got the drivers from the LG website for my cell, hmmm... ill have to recheck everything else because ADB has never gave me this much trouble

I'd be willing to code a one click solution if it would be helpful. Its pretty easy as it is tho

I had the same problems. I followed everything step by step and made sure I had the right drivers along with everything I would need with Java. Still no luck. I have the combination of feeling stupid and frustrated. I have rooted and installed custom roms on three different phones before.
A one click solution would be amazing if you could come up with that. I will try the ADB way again later.

Yes a one click, alot of people would thank you ....and i would be gratefull

i agree. ive been trying the adb method all day. for some reason just wont work. im prolly missing something
Try updating all the drivers for adb. It would be helpful for you and it would probably solve your issue.

Does one click root work for you? If it does, there is nothing wrong with your drivers.
Once you get one click root working, put the recover in the ADB folder that is part of one clock root.... then open that fold, hold shift and right click, select open command prompt, then type in the adb commands from the CWM instructions thread.
LG uses the same drivers for all their Android devices, I used their driver installer app and selected the Verizon LG Fathom since it didn't have the Thrill listed anywhere, have had no problems.
Some reason my comp doesnt do any of this correctly... so much for brand new tech
Does one click root work for you?
If not, you have a driver problem, fix it by downloading LG's driver installer, select Verizon for the carrier and then select the Fathom. If you have a drive issue, and that fails to fix it, try a different USB port... make sure you have your phone in debug mode... can you mount your SD cards?
If one click root does work, then YOU, not your new technology, is doing something wrong. So the question is, what are you doing wrong...
Please answer the question, does one click root work? From there, tell us step by step what you are doing, and we will tell you what needs fixing.
almost done

Ok, then driver issues isn't a problem, I would take a really close look at your ADB commands, and be sure to wait 30 seconds after each one to let it process.
I would recommend copy pasting the longer commands (right click copy, right click paste, the keyboard shortcuts don't work in command prompt window).
now it says permission denied on first command?
Then you don't have root... run one click root again. I would use it's driver check feature as well before running it.
lol i lost root? wow ok strange... i have superuser
Well... if you get accessed denied you either are typing something wrong, skipping a step, or trying to do something that needs root and you don't have root.
Do you have debug mode turned on? Do you see this active in your phones notification bar? That first line doesn't even need root access, if IIRC.

Fastboot Stuck on "waiting for device"

Hi Guys,
I'm aware this is not uncommon but Ive never encountered anything like this before. Im trying give my htc one a fresh wipe and return back to stock, but I cant for the life of me get fastboot to recognize my phone. Therefore I cannot relock the bootloader.
Ive tried uninstalling drivers and reinstalling driveres in bigdaddys pack - between pc reboots
Ive tried koushs driveres install and uninstall - between pc reboots
My usb ports are 2.0 and not 3.0
Debugging is enabled.
Im in fastboot (its highighted in red) on bootloader screen.
Im still s-on
EDIT: I also removed HTC SYNC
All of this and still nothing. Im wondering now if Im not running the command correctly, but im pretty sure its "fastboot oem lock"?
My only other thought is that I ran vipers rom for a while but then did full wipe and then ran a cm based rom (Avater). I noticed this messed with the partition on the phone, hence why im trying to return to stock and bring partition back to normal.
Any advice or sugestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Ive tried uninstalling drivers and reinstalling driveres in bigdaddys pack - between pc reboots
Ive tried koushs driveres install and uninstall - between pc reboots
My usb ports are 2.0 and not 3.0
Debugging is enabled.
Im in fastboot (its highighted in red) on bootloader screen.
Im still s-on
EDIT: I also removed HTC SYNC
All of this and still nothing. Im wondering now if Im not running the command correctly, but im pretty sure its "fastboot oem lock"?
My only other thought is that I ran vipers rom for a while but then did full wipe and then ran a cm based rom (Avater). I noticed this messed with the partition on the phone, hence why im trying to return to stock and bring partition back to normal.
Any advice or sugestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks, I checked and I have quite a few updates, might be on to something because I noticed a few usb driver updates required too. However, as per murphys law, for some reason the "install" button for all the updates is faded out and unclickable. I feel like my mother trying to click the unclickable. I checked the agreements and agreed but it wont let me update? If worse comes to worse, i can try reinstall the whole thing but that seems a little drastic.

did you open the sdk manager as adminstrator, it won't update if you didn't.

Thanks, but i ran as admin. Ive noticed each update "depends on missing SDK platform Android, API18", so something seems to be up. Looks like im on the right track though so thanks everyone
Still no dice. Im stumped, im thinking its my phone and its messed up partition...I broke the golden rule with phone too. I never did a nandroid backup. Nice!

I had the same problem, I erased my android sdk folder and redownloaded and reinstalled the official pack, it then let me update and when I opened cmd, I cd to the platform-tools folder and I was good to go. Hope that helps

Go into device manager on your pc and erase all HTC drivers, then plug in your phone, it should start reinstalling drivers...from there you should be good.
