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
How to root the Dell Streak 7 using SuperOneClick:
Credits go to CLShortfuse for the application.
Note: I never installed the drivers for the Dell Streak 7 prior to doing this. I haven't been able to find them. Windows seemed to find the right ones for my Dell which is rare.
Also if you don't have ADB drivers already then goto this link and follow the directions to install them.
http://myhtcdesire.com/tutorials/how-to-install-the-adb-driver-on-windows
The OS used was Windows 7 x64.
Here is an easy ADB Tutorial if needed.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/adb-easy-tutorial/
I typed adb devices
and the Dell Streak 7 was listed.
1. Plug up your Dell Streak 7 to the computer.
2. Make sure the Streak is in debugging mode. Go under Settings/Development/USB Debugging.
3. Head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682 and download the SuperOneClick 1.6.3.
optional: Open a command prompt to ensure adb sees your device. Type "adb devices" and check if a device is listed.
4. Open SuperOneClick application in the folder and click the Root button. SuperOneClick installs Superuser and busybox without any problems.
Again Credits go to CLShortfuse for SuperOneClick.
Nice. Stickie mods?

Confirmed working.
Cool. I'll do it once I get home.

What OS are you using? Worked fine on Windows 7 x64 with out having Dell drivers available.
You may need to install ADB drivers. Here is a link to a tutorial for that.

Count me in as not able to root also...I have rooted every android phone I've had and never had any problems until this one....At the same time, I always used to do it on windows xp. Maybe ill just go back to my old xp comp to do this
I didn't have any trouble at all. The procedure is pretty clear. It worked off the first shot. Now I've been trying various rooted Apps to see what's best for the tablet.

i also try SuperOneClick "1.5.5" cuz some say that one worked for them no luck
@flipher i had same error , but when i tried 1.5.5 version it worked like a charm...hope this helps
Did not work for me either at first -- ADB connected fine, but OneClick "FAILED" on pushing the exploit. Then I read the OneClick page more carefully and discovered the instruction "DO NOT mount your SD card." Since the Streak 7 has TWO SD cards, one non-removable (which automatically doesn't mount under USB Debugging), I thought maybe my second SD card was causing the problem. So I powered down, popped it out, restarted, and ran OneClick without the SD card in place -- voila, no problems!
So for those having problems, if you have an SD card installed, try removing it and see if it works then.
Please don't troll, my first post
So, my Nexus 7came a few days ago, and since then I've been playing around with it a lot.
Yesterday I decided I was going to root the beautiful tablet.
I plugged it into my laptop (Windows 7 64bit) and then I saw an error whilst it tried to install the drivers.
It had two crosses by the two drivers it was trying to install.
I plugged it into another laptop (Windows Vista 32bit) and it installed the drivers perfectly and quickly.
I understand that I have to have the Nexus 7 plugged in to root it, and so now I am highly confused and annoyed.
My laptop doesn't recognize it and it doesn't appear in Computer.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
If you need anymore information, just let me know! (=
Works fine for me after about 10 minutes of searching and reading. No need to add to the thread clutter.

Follow instructions in the Nexus 7 Root Toolkit

Remember to scroll all the way down in each individual window of the guide to setting up the drivers. I drove myself crazy before I realized that I had missed something important. Also if your desktop is 64bit, you have to use the 64bit drivers. Good luck!

Have you downloaded these yet they are new out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796165
Install the android sdk. Go to device manager and find your nexus, right click and update driver software. Search computer, select all locations (or something like that) then have disk and browse to your installation. Uh underneath extras there is a folder with the driver you're going to select.
I'm at work so that's a general idea, Google "cyanogenmod adb driver install" and skip the part about replacing the file with a custom one since the nexus is included by default.

That will get your the ASUS drivers which will should work on your computer.
All of the root kits also include drivers and they are not that hard to install.

Yep. Tried that aswell... if it had worked I wouldn't of come back to ask if anyone had any other ideas as to why it doesn't work..
I thought it was possible to ask questions on here without people saying stuff like that...
clearly you are doing something wrong because the drivers work.
If you need help, you need to provide more details on what you are trying and what the issue is when you try to install... Not just an image of what happens when you plug the device in. That part is obvious that you don't have the drivers installed.
So of the various methods of getting drivers, which ones did you try and what did they say when you tried loading them?

Ok, let me run you through what I'm doing here...
I opened up the zip containing the files.
These are the files that I am greeted with;
amd64
i386
android_winusb
androidwinusb86
androidwinusb64
source.properties
Now what? (=
Those are the drivers... now you need to load them.... Not using Vista for many years... did a simple google search and found...
Code:
Windows Vista
To install the Android USB driver on Windows Vista for the first time:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port. Windows will detect the device and launch the Found New Hardware wizard.
Select Locate and install driver software.
Select Don't search online.
Select I don't have the disk. Show me other options.
Select Browse my computer for driver software.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver\.) As long as you specified the exact location of the installation package, you may leave Include subfolders checked or unchecked—it doesn't matter.
Click Next. Vista may prompt you to confirm the privilege elevation required for driver installation. Confirm it.
When Vista asks if you'd like to install the Google ADB Interface device, click Install to install the driver.
Or, to upgrade an existing Android USB driver on Windows Vista with the new driver:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Device Manager in the left pane.
Locate and expand ADB Interface in the right pane.
Right-click on Listed Nexus 7 Device, and select Update Driver Software.
When Vista starts updating the driver, a prompt will ask how you want to search for the driver software. Select Browse my computer for driver software.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver\.) As long as you specified the exact location of the installation package, you may leave Include subfolders checked or unchecked—it doesn't matter.
Click Next. Vista might prompt you to confirm the privilege elevation required for driver installation. Confirm it.
When Vista asks if you'd like to install the Google ADB Interface device, click Install to upgrade the driver.
Change the location in the instructions to where you unloaded those USB drivers and you should be on your way...
Try pdanet drivers, just Google pdanet install the proper one(can't remember if they have a 32 bit or 64 bit)
I used their drivers to root the n7. If they don't have asus drivers just.click I don't know. Don't remember exactly the installation step by step, but.its easy enough to get through

Tried that. It all installed correctly, it just won't show up in Computer so I can view my files.
I have unlocked my bootloader... if that helps, which means that Nexus Root Kit 1.5.2 can detect that the Nexus 7 is plugged in.

So your having an issue with mtp stuff. Go into setting then click on storage then hit the three dots on the top right corner. Just make sure media device is checked.
Reboot the computer and try a different USB port. These are just so basic steps just do that and see what happens

Hi Guys
I am trying to learn android programming and my pc running ubuntu 12.04 is not recognizing the p990 on cm 10.1. I remember that the phone used to be detected while running official ICS.
I used to get around this problem by using ADB over wifi to access the device.
But after the cm10.1 update to android 4.2.2 adb over wifi is not working anymore.
i tried adding entries to 51-android.rules file. But that doesn't work either(I think adding the rules only work if the device is listed using the lsusb command. In my case it is not listing as a usb device).
Charging is working fine BTW.
I am currently running cm 10.1 feb -19 rom with kowalski 100p3 kernel and old bootloader
Please help....
do you have installed Android-SDK? This is recommend
yes, i can connect nexus 7 without any problem.
Did you try start adb as root on your Linux box? Mine only works as this.
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app
No, I will try that.
But i think it has to do with the new confirm prompt for debugging that was introduced in 4.2.2. It doesn't appear when I try debugging over WiFi. Any idea how i can override that prompt or add my PC to the adb white-list
Adb should not be starting as root. Please don't do this. What you need is properly configure udev rules to recognize your device and set the proper rights for device node in /dev.

Thanks . that is what i am trying to figure out.
i need to clarify a couple of things though.
1) Does udev rules work even when the device is not listed using 'lsusb' command?
2) i think the manufacture id for lg is 1004. but i am not able to find its product id.Does any one have an idea.?
also it would be nice if somebody could share the complete rule. I believe it is usually added to '51-android.rules' file.
Thanks in advance .

Hi
I have 2 Kindle Fire HD 7 inch. The 16GB is rooted and can run ADB commands from the latest FirstAide. The other is a new 32GB (arrived today) and I am trying to root it.
In XPs admin tools/computer management, the Android Composite ADB Interface driver is shown. In Properties/general, the rooted device is shown as working normally, whereas the unrooted device is shown as "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)"
Obviously, trying to use FirstAide to root the new device won't work if ADB isn't working.
As the PC installation is the same, and even the same USB data is being used, there must be something different with the new device. I can't believe that the storage size plays a part so what should I look at? ADB is turned on in the new device (more/device/ADB).
I do have a factory cable but don't know how that can be used in this instance. The new device seems to work normally, and both device and PC have been rebooted/reset to no avail.
Can anyone help or does it look like the device is faulty?
edit: the new device was v7.2.2 but updated itself soon after to 7.2.3 which is the same as the rooted 16GB device
I just used the factory cable and reset the device which went into fastboot mode but didn't respond to any fastboot commands. Switching off and replacing the factory cable with standard data cable saw it boot normally (I thought the boot mode was persistent until reset?)
Maybe try a factory reset on the new one and then turn off wifi until you root it.
Sent from my KFTT using xda premium
If you connected the 32gb kindle before enabling adb at any point you'll want to UNINSTALL its drivers from device manager on your PC and upon reconnect your PC will install the adb version of these drivers assuming adb is enabled.
Let me know how this works for you.
Sent from my KFTT using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the replies. I'm a little confused.
Eventually, I uninstalled the drivers from the PC. I found I couldn't install the drivers using the new FirstAide, I got an error message, so I used the old FirstAide and the drivers installed no problem. From there I could get to root. :laugh:
However, now I find that the old device isn't seen by ADB whilst the new one is..... it's as if the drivers are device specific.
Can anyone explain this to me? In my mind, the drivers, once installed correctly should work for all devices. At the moment, I'm faced with uninstalling/reinstalling drivers whenever I want to swap devices.
victorlugo do you literally mean that if you charge up the device without enabling ADB then you won't be able to install the drivers? As it is, enabling ADB was one of the first things I did, as it was my intention to root it immediately and transfer data from the 16GB model using Titanium.
well, I now have 5 drivers installed covering the 2 devices:
2 x Android ADB Interface
2 x Android Composite ADB Interface
1 x Tate-PVT-08
anyone have any ideas why this might happen? Each device responds to ADB ok, but they use separate drivers
