I bought SGN at Thursday and I want to install CWM so I can change ROMs.
But I cant get USB Debugging to work. When I connect USB cable to my phone it shows only icon for usb not for debugging in status bar. Of course USB Debugging is checked on in development.
My Android SDK is working fine because I also have ZTE Skate which SDK detects normally and I can use It.
I have installed: Java JDK 1.7, latest Android SDK and .net framework 4. But I don't think that problem is here...
Also because I cannot instal Samsung Kies ( it give me a message: some files are corrupted. if the problem persists please reinstall the program ) I installed SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_1_5_6_0.zip hoping that this will help to Android SDK detect my phone but no luck...
I tried uninstalling every driver for samsung, deleted samsung kies, deleted java, android sdk and installed from scratch, tried another USB port, tried another USB cable but still no luck... In Device manager my phone is detected like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

But why do you need Android SDK to root Note on GB, I rooted it with Doomlord's method and I never installed SDK, Samsung drivers are enough for that.
I mean, in my personal opinion there is no sense in downloading the Android SDK, using ADB and manually entering commands if you don't have to.
What about dr.ketan sticky guide thread in development section?
And every device that i rooted and installed cwm recovery was recognized by adb. That is always the first step. Your device must be recognized by adb before you can run .bat file for rooting. When I type "adb devices" in cmd there is no my SGN listed. How can i root or install cwm without ADB ?

So I just installed Windows 7 on my machine and was trying to ADB with my Android since I used it ALL the time on Windows XP.
I put the phone in Debug mode and plugged into my computer and told it the location of the driver. It seems to work well for a second and then it tells me that there was a problem installing the driver. It then says:
HTC ADB Composite Device Driver (not sure exactly of this...)
Access is Denied

Nope I have administrative rights and even tried it in safe mode.
Would you be able to zip up the drivers you used or link to where you downloaded them from?
So strange.
Even if you have admin rights, UAC can f it up.
Make sure you right click on command prompt and click "Run as Administrator"
Also, do you have x64? That requires a signed drivers. I don't remember if the ADB drivers were signed by microsoft, but if they aren't, it won't work unless you apply the work around

Simple Solution
Here is a simple solution without having to read that long thread:
For future reference, here is how to install the drivers or fix the drivers should they not be working.
Everything you need is contained within this:
http://www.divshare.com/download/8845496-f72
This is the howto documentation
This is how to get your android phone to connect to you PC
to use functions like adb and other developer tools.
If you have installed the phone before but adb function dont work
then:
1) Run USBDeview
2) Select the list item(s) that have the word "android" within the description
3) Right Click > Uninstall
If you have done the above, or are plugging your phone in for the first time:
1) Plug in phone
2 a) When prompted to install drivers select the "android driver" folder
contained within this tutorial
2 b) If no message appears or you get a message saying drivers failed
to install. Goto device manager
2 b i) start > All Programs > accessories > run
type devmgmt.msc and press ok.
3 b) find the android device in device manager, it will have a warning icon
next to it and be in a section like unknown.
4 b) Right click and install driver
5 a) When prompted to install drivers select the "android driver" folder
contained within this tutorial

USBDeview is awesome but....
Even after removing all of the drivers associated with my device, as soon as I try to install the fresh new drivers, I still get "Access Denied" at the end of the install.

I have this same issue on an Ideos U8150 and on XP... At one point in the past it was working (before I flashed Cyanogen 7). Since then I have tried numerous driver packages, both specific to my phone and generic, and have had no luck getting past the access denied error.. I have even gone as far as changing the registry permission as well as checking all of my folder permissions... I am stumped.
Adb root - run that from command prompt.

I know it a while ago since you posted this but still, it helped me fix the "Access denied" thing which i didn't know how to fix. I installed ADB drivers 3 times... anyways, tnx :good:
So If you are like me you had this same issue in 2022. Idk if it will be a fix for you but it was for me.
follow this youtube video for the exact setup so you can get hopfully the same out com to the T.

1. make sure you're in administrator mode for command prompt.
2. The file name has changed from what it was so instead of doing
cd adb\platform-tools_r30.0.4-windows\platform-tools
It's now this
cd adb\platform-tools\
This will get you to the correct path if you followed the file placement in the video.
next all you have to do is type
adb devices on the command prompt. to test if it worked
other things that you might have to try is seeing if the driver it self is being blocked. you might also have to turn off and back on developer mode. View other posts in this thread if it's still stuck for you. Hopefully I helped one person at least.

I haven't been able to get ADB (of any kind, from any source) to run on my win7 64 bit machine...ever. I've had the SDK installed for a while now and have tried several times to get ADB working- today is no different.
Try the adb setup link in my sig!
But you don't need to know how to use adb to use this program
Edit: I got it. The link in your sig is what saved me. Checking this out now. Thanks!!

Trouble getting hard adb root on Captivate GB 2.3.5 ROM
Android Commander 0.7.9.9 at http://androidcommander.com/ xda link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597098
I have a Samsung Captivate running a modified stock leaked GB 2.3.5 One flash ROM that has been Fugu rooted. TiBU, Rom Toolbox and other Super User apps all work.
So this program by PanPiotr looks like just what the noob in me is after, and I'm sure a few others out there too.
Once installed the program seems to be fine. I have one problem that I can't seem to overcome. That is getting a hard or adb root on the phone. I have tried to follow the instructions of PanPiotr but I don't have a boot.img file in my nandroid BU as outlined in his FAQs. Only cache.img, data.img, sd-ext.img and system.img I can use unyaffs-windows to extract the files in these but the default.prop appears to be calling to be loaded from ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung, which I can't seem to find.
I can modify the default.prop ro.debuggable=0 to =1 with root explorer but just doing it in the root doesn't help. I can't seem to find out which IMG file in my nandroid BU has or how to modify the default.prop file loader to get the ro.debuggable=1 to take or stay.
Consequently the Root Access indicator always says Root Access:NO
Any help would be appreciated.
TYIA
Bud
May have this worked out.
So I flashed a custom rom and kernel. Connected Android commander to phone and I have Root access:OK. Program works great. Thanks PanPiotr.
On the brighter side of all this while in recovery mode of the new kernel (CornKernel_UCKJ3_v403) I found a way of switching the toggle for debugging enabled to on if that kernel works with the rom I was on then that will work. It should so I'll give that a try and let you know.
EDIT:
So I just finished and this worked brilliantly. Hope it helps someone else.
Bud
WOW nice tool very needed

please add option for screen shots for more resolutions
Or to manually edit screen size CUSTOM.
I am using this on my sensation and image is captured but due to wrong resolution rows are shifted
Nice app bro.
Unfortunatelly nobody seems to get root, i will try to find out why it worked for me...
I got root acces (and so did a friend of mine) but for some weird reason nobody else seems to get it with the steps i posted. I will explain step by step what i did and had on my pc while gaining root acces:
- I am working on a fresh Windows 7 64 bit pc
- I have never had any lg software installed on it (just formated my hard drives and re installed Windows)
- I have a stock non-branded Dutch LG p-880
- I connected my phone, put it in USB-Debugging mode
- Found out not all of the drivers where installed correctly
- Went to the LG website, downloaded and installed the LGMobile support tool
- In the support tool i went to instal drivers (at the right top), whent to the LGP-880 and double clicked for installing the drivers
- I had the phone connectivity switched on at LG PC Software
- Then i ran the root.bat file and nothing happend
- Changed the phone's connectivity to Charging only and ran the boot.bat file again and that did the trick.
First off all I have to mention i didn't do any development at all and credits go to kennethpenn for his ''One Click HTC One X (AT&T/Rogers/Others) (Win/Mac/Linux) root'' and to one of my close friends for telling me about the tool.
I just wanted to find out how to get root and thought, why not? So i started the script and it gave me root acces, installed SU and a Busybox.
This is how to do it:
- Download and install the LG Optimus 4x HD drivers from the LGMobile Support Tool (you can download it from LG's website or download it here) Start the program, at the top right corner press install drivers and look for the LG P880 then double klick
- Download kennethpenn's root tool here and extract it to a folder you want
- Plug your device in your computer and turn USB Debugging on: Settings, developer options, USB Debugging. Make sure your connection option is set to charge only.
- Now double click root.bat
- Your device will restart a couple of times and congratulations: You've got root
I did all of this without installing/using lg pc suite
As always, i am not responsible (neither is kennethpenn) for bricking your device.

Try
Unplug the usb and plug it back again in a different usb port.
Go to the Settings -> Applications -> Development of your device and uncheck the USB debugging mode and then check it again back!
Restart the adb on your PC. adb kill-server and then adb start-server
Restart your device and try again.

Yep. Everything. Different cables, different port, rebooting both PC and phone, reinstalling ADB, updating ADB, nothing works.
Device is always offline. Maybe Win 8 x64 is just bad for this :crying:
EDIT : I am using the root with locked bootloader. Is that a problem? Does it need to be unlocked for adb?
Just a update. Interestingly enough, recovery for locked bootloader installs fine (after disabling and enabling USB debugging) but ADB still doesnt work.
adb does work, you connected to a shell on the device on the image above.
Download flashtool beta for xz and install it. There's a subdirectory drivers in the installation directory where you find an installer which installs adb, fastboot and flashmode drivers if you select the correct checkboxes.

Once the Android SDK is downloaded and installed, launch the SDK Manager application from your Start menu.
Enable the Android SDK tools and SDK Platform-tools checkbox and click the Install button. This downloads and installs the platform-tools package, which contains ADB and other utilities.
After installing these packages , Go to the place where you installed ANDROID SDK . IN MY CASE , IT IS :-
Code:
C:\Program files(x86)l\Android\android-sdk\tools
If you used a different install location, you’ll find DDMS in the tools directory,inside your ANDROID-SDK directory .....
MOST IMPORTANT :- To DDMS with your device , you must Enable USB DEBUGGING and you install your device driver's
1) you must enable USB debugging on it. You’ll find this option under Developer Options on your device’s Settings screen

2)NOW RUN MONITOR.bat AS ADMINISTRATOR
3)NOW ANDROID DEBUG MONITOR WILL APPEAR ..

Troubleshooting ;-
sometimes it will not recognize a Device in recovery mode..So in this case ,either uninstall your device drivers and then reinstall it OR refresh your device list in the DDMS device panel..... GOOD LUCK TAKING A SCREENSHOT :fingers-crossed:

Taking screenshots in recovery with ddms wasn't a success for me... I'll try this method also... Now, I'm reading your instructions carefully... Hope this time it'll result in success.
