Hello, I just traded my iphone for a vivid, Im no big noob to rooting and everything else but Ive been here for the last 3 hours trying to root and cant get anywhere. Ive been trying to unlock with hte HTCdev site and every time I try to update the Android SDK Tools and install Android SDK platform-tools, I get this'
Preparing to install archives
Downloading Android SDK Platform-tools, revision 11
Failed to create directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\temp
Skipping 'Android SDK Tools, revision 19'; it depends on 'Android SDK Platform-tools, revision 11' which was not installed.
Done. Nothing was installed.

Am I doing something wrong here??
Second try was using the All-In-One kit. Once I go to use the third step to get the Token ID it doesnt work. I click "go" and nothing happens.
The only other way I saw to accomplish this was the wire trick and im not taking that risk with myself lol.
Any help or advise will be greatly appreciated.
Did you download the .exe version of the SDK or the .zip?
I downloaded the .exe

Try to install it to to the root of your C drive.
In the installer it will look like
C:\android-SDK
Then inside that just check the tools box and android 4.0.3 box.

ive tried everything i can think of.. my computer will not detect my driver for my nexus so i can use adb... can anyone help?
did u already try following step 2 in here?

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
Totally new to android, anyone mind explaining?
the command is "adb install <path/name of apk>".
do it from your computer in a shell/terminal.
Do I have to mess with the NDK at al? I thought I saw something on that...
Bump, more info please?
NDK? Did you mean SDK (android for windows developer kit), If so yes. Download and install. Follow the link below for drivers.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882751
Once SDK and drivers are installed, connect the NC. open command prompt (start menu, run, CMD), type adb devices
You should get a return back of some numbers and DEVICE. This means SDK and drivers were installed correctly. Once ADB (SDK) is installed correctly follow this thread.

Post up if you need some more specifics.

Even though I installed the JDK 6u23, the Android SDK installer won't let me install because it doesn't see the JDK installed...
I used the same 623 package, installed that, then reboot, then install the SDK. BTW what OS are you using?

Win x64... I installed the 32-bit version of the JDK and got it..
If you're totally new, I'd suggest heading over to http://nookdevs.com/NookColor and reading up there.

CMD is giving me 'adb is not recognized as a command'
The nook drivers are installed, along with the SDK

My SDK install is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows
When I run in cmd:
cd\
cd Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
I can run adb commands. The thread wants me to run sqlite3 commands too, but they are in a different directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools
I am pretty confused on what to do
Do you guys use search at all or check the development forum for this device i mean come on its all in black and white.
I don't know what I did exactly, but I managed to install apk's from the root of my SD card
sweet
Please someone help!
After following instructions of Easy USB ADB Installer for Windows, and running adb devices, my nook didn't show up as a device.
Also I tried installing a software and it said application not install.
Thanks in advance
Easier thing to do is go into Settings --> Application --> Unknown Sources then download an APK with your Browser and install it from the Downloads window. I suggest finding an APK for Astro File Manager and get Dropbox, that way you can install Apps straight from Cloud storage.

Try this Bro, it's the easiest way to get the USB Drivers onto your PC and then your NC recognized.

I have that same problem, have you found a fix for it yet?
I'm running Windows 7 x64
with an I-7 Processor
I've tried everything I can think to try... unrevoked, universal androot, z4root (which apparently doesn't exist anymore). I tried to install the SDK and heroroot and do it through a command prompt, but when I do an "adb" command, it says that adb isn't a valid internal or external command. WTF?
Most of the threads that I've found are at least a year old, some older. Are there any newer methods to root the Hero? Many thanks in advance.
Troy
The one click method has never failed me

Are you doing the adb through platform-tools? It's in that folder, not tools. You shouldn't need to even do that with Regaw's or universal. You need to make sure that you have the drivers through HTC as you would to do an OTA update, but you only need the drivers and not the other HTC stuff (delete that and keep drivers folder). I have used both the Universal one click method and Regaw's (which I think is unrevoked- actually, I think Unrevoked might be for gaining s-off capabilities) and they worked like a charm: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694572
I'm having a problem while trying to root my nexus. I'm trying to use the WUGS-Nexus root toolkit and my computer is not registering my nexus as an ADB device. I removed the original drivers from my computer and installed the drivers from the toolkit but that didn't help. I was trying to install the android SDK (just got a new computer so nothing is installed yet) but I was having problems with that as well. It said that the Java JDK was not installed even though it is. Is the reason its not registering as an ADB device because ADB isn't installed? And does anyone know about the JDK issue? Thanks in advance!

Hello,
I am using One_All-In-One_Kit_v to root my htc one that is on 4.2.2..i enabled usb debugging and disabled fastboot. I unzipped One_All-In-One_Kit_v on desktop and i installed drivers sucessfully but when i connect phone to cable and click on Get Token ID phone doesnt go in bootloader mode. Also i get window that says "install htc sync manager" and install "windows media player to browse and copy files". This is info from dos window:
'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Do you have the latest Android SDK installed on you PC?
Get it from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html , open up SDK Manager and install all the Jellybean Drivers.

Just extract the downloaded zip file and you will get a folder named adt bundle where you should find SDK Manager in it.
Just run it normaly and u should see the menu for installing the different android sdk versions.
You can choose only 4.1 and 4.2 or install all of them, it's your choice.
No Problem, mate.

The old Kit had the 4.1.2 drivers in it, and now you need the 4.2.2 drivers for your device.
I recommend you to install the latest SDK and Toolkit to prevent problems in the future.
