I am having the worst time with this phone. I just want to RUU the &%^$(*#) thing back to STOCK!!! My computer was finding the phone, but telling me the MTP driver could not be found. Now, I plug it in and I cannot even transfer files to it via usb. I have to use a wifi explorer once I flash a ROM. I've had it. Is there any way to get this driver/send the phone to be flashed by HTC/RUU the phone?!?!? I just need some help people, my computer no longer recognizes the device.
To make your life easy you will need drivers for your phone the best are the universal naked drivers for HTC One

If installed, uninstall HTC sync, and disable any anti virus or firewalls including Windows firewall. You will also need to download ADB if you don't have it minimal ADB is great

I can't seem to figure out what happened to my ADB driver. I installed HTC Sync to use USB tethering and found that ADB no longer worked. I checked the drivers and found that the ADB driver is missing. I uninstalled HTC sync and the driver, plugged in my phone and the phone automatically installs the driver for HTC Sync. Tried to perform "adb remount" and it gives me "error: device not found".
I am running Windows XP SP3 on my computer. Cyanogen 4.2.3.1 with the Buuf theme. If somebody could help me get ADB back I would appreciate it.
Anybody? Any Suggestions?

YOu have to reinstall the driver but don't let it choose the driver for you tell WIndows that you'll do it manually and select the win32 driver in the SDK tools.
That being said you aren't going to be able to use HTC Sync anymore.
Thanks for the reply. How can I manually install the driver? I uninstalled the HTC sync driver, plugged my phone in, and the driver automatically installs. It never gives me a chance to browse for a different driver. If there is some way I can force the driver to install without connecting the phone, that would probably do the trick. I would much rather have ADB than USB tethering anyway.
Nevermind. Next time I will google before I ask how to do something.
If anybody else has a similar problem, just google how to install drivers manually and manually install the ADB driver.
I'm fairly new to android and i was wanting to root my htc vivid but it will not connect to my computer. I first plugged it in and the windows device manager installed a driver that just said unknown device. so i went and downloaded the htc sync software but even that won't recognize the vivid. I'm at a total loss and need direction.
Drivers at htc
Did you try the drivers at developer.htc.com ?
Page 4 from "Kernel Source code"
Download ADB http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
Choose Connection Type
When you connect your Vivid to the PC via the USB cable, you should see a screen asking what type of connection you want - charging only, disk drive, sync, etc. If you are not trying to actually sync data, just select disk drive and the tap the Done button at the bottom. You can then see the internal storage (and the "external" SD card if you have one installed). This can be done even if HTC Sync does not work.
If you don't see the connection type screen, go into Settings and tap on Connect to PC. Check the Ask Me box so you will be prompted the next time you plug in the USB cord.
As to HTC Sync, see my posting elsewhere in this forum about HTC Sync not working. In my opnion, it's not a very good program.
As for the driver, you may need to uninstall the driver if you can. Then uninstall and re-install HTC Sync to get the correct driver.

I had similar issues trying to install the ICS update. Some searching lead me to this post that had just the drivers I needed.
-Brett.
I've tried the drivers from that post before and still no dice. And when I connect my phone it never asks for connection type even when I have it checked. I'm still in the same boat

Exactly what he said, Windows Vista didn't tell me any drivers were required (in charge only mode), but I had to install the XP drivers from that link before the RUU would proceed past the very first step. After I did that it worked fine.
Just unzip the drivers to a folder and when Windows tells you it can't find drivers, tell it to look there.
Ok I have the same issue but windows doesn't tell me it can't find drivers it just sits there. So how di I get it to accept the drivers?

I found the drivers for windows by going thru the at&t website... Then once I installed the HTC sync software (yes I know it doesn't work) and ran it... It told me there was a new version... I installed that and like magic it finally knew it was there...

HTC has new drivers that work when the old drivers did not. HTC SYNC from htc.com Load in Windows7 and they will run in the background.
read the posts above to set your phone correctly and you should be good to go. Gary
I just finished using this guide:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25228-how-to-rooting-gt-p3113-step-by-step-updated-052412/
The process works well and doesn't require ADB on the host PC. Some things I noticed:
I would not install the linked USB drivers. They didn't work for me on XP or Win7. Install the Kies software from:
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/GT-P3113TSYXAR
It has the USB drivers. Then you may want to uninstall right away as the program is bloated and worthless in my opinion. Drivers are kept after uninstall (if you don't choose to remove them).
I could not get my Win7x64 PC to work with the root process. The device was not recognized when it was in download mode. I also could not use the Win7 PC to root my Kindle. I used an XP laptop for the procedure. Not sure what the problem was.
If your device is not being recognized by Windows while tablet is in download mode, it will not show up in odin.
The steps include using a secondary sdcard. I already had one. I'm not sure if you could use the internal storage if you don't have an external card.
Otherwise the process was fairly straightforward as far as rooting processes tend to be.

Try uninstalling all HTC drivers, then HTC sync and rebooting your computer. Then put your phone in fastboot and connect it via micro usb. Let the drivers installed and then install HTC sync. This work for me but I'm running Windows 8.
If the above doesnt work uninstall drivers and HTC Sync and install this

Then reboot your PC and you may also have to disable any antivirus or firewalls, including windows firewall.

I have the HTC One M7 64GB Developer's edition
I want to use HTC Sync. After installing it, HTC Sync says the phone is not connected. I see the windows default driver for the phone is installed under 'HTC Android Phone USB Device' and it's under CD-ROMS. I tried updating the driver to the driver in the Win7x64/drivers folder but windows insists that its default driver is the best one for the device. I choose let me pick the device and point to the androidusb.INF file and it says it's not compatible with the device and doesn't let me install it.
This is the HTC Sync file I downloaded: setup_3.1.24.5_htc.exe

Is usb debugging disabled?
Else try
Try uninstalling HTC sync and HTC drivers. Then with your phone plugged in delete the drivers that are associated with it. Unplug your phone. Restart and just plug in the phone. Then run the setup for HTC sync from your phone.
USB debugging is disabled.
How do I run HTC sync on my phone? Sorry, I tried googling and didn't find anything.
Delete all drivers you downloaded, including going into devices on Windows and removing anything your computer is recognizing in connection with the phone. These include HTC One driver MTP (sp!?) driver and Android device driver. Restart computer!. Use different t USB port, plug in and let it auto install. That should do it.

Tried it and it installed the default windows driver again.
I don't understand how it's supposed to install anything other than the windows driver if I deleted all other HTC drivers.
I just tried this on my Windows 8.1 laptop. It does the same thing.
I think it's some setting on the phone now. USB Debugging is off.
I found this thread with a similar issue. http://androidforums.com/incredible-all-things-root/266478-root-noob-needs-help.html
However, when I have HTC Sync uninstalled, it still has the default windows driver installed. Should I have something else installed while HTC Sync isn't installed?

USB Debugging needs to be on if you want ADB to recognize it in the OS. Also, check to see if Fast boot is NOT checked in Power from the Settings menu.
Agree with the use of Linux.
