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.
Once i got my new nook color i rooted it with auto nooter, and im running 1.0.1, on my previous nook i rooted it and adb worked right then, now i cant get adb access, im using the same computer and everything, all thats diferent is its a new nook. I have full root access and can install apps and everything. Any help?
Seems to be a common problem. You can launch NookColorTools and fix it temporarily. Go to "Development" and then unchecked and then recheck the USB Debugging box.
Ok I've been doing that for a while and finnaly got the message that USB debugging is only for development. It works now......

Get ADB wireless, it works great.
I've had zero luck using usb adb, but adb wireless works great!
I was having similar issues so after many many attempts I just decided to go with adb wireless and would definitely recommend going that route if you can't get it working over usb.
Yeah, getting ADB to work requires a lot of uninstalling/reinstalling drivers and unplugging/replugging the device, it's very temperamental.
can someone link me to a link on how to use/setup adb wireless

it's free in the market and once you download it set up is easy. i've used it through my mac terminal as well as through ubuntu. like the posters above i had the hardest time getting adb to work via usb.

once you've installed adb on your computer type "adb" at your terminal prompt and you should list of commands there.
here's the link to Android Developer's ADB website (this also lists commands):
http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
files and installation directions can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Good luck!
Ok so me being my dumb self forgot to install the adb drivers for the nook....... im dumb haha, but i cant get them to install, every time i uninstall the mass storage driver so i can install the proper driver it automatically re-installs it....... HELPPPPPPP
Is there any way to download this to the SD and install it from there? I've upgraded to a version of froyo, which doesn't have the market, and my command line won't work after swapping nooks.
I can't seem to get mine to work with either adbwireless or via usb.
Using USB I get this:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>
Here is what I get if I try to connect using adbwireless:
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb connect 192.168.2.4:5555
already connected to 192.168.2.4:5555
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
192.168.2.4:5555 device
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>
But it doesn't show a serial number like all the HowTo's says it should. What am I missing?
EDIT: HALLELUJAH!!
I fixed it. Actually I didn't fix it, I just followed some instructions from another user that was having the same problem and finally figured out the very weird thing that installing the drivers did. Anyway, here is the solution from hacku:

I followed your instructions to a T and I still can't get ADB to see my NC. After uninstalling all instances of Nook in my device manager, unplugging it and plugging it back in, it adds all the same devices:
Under Disk Drives it lists B&N Ebook Disk USB Device (twice)
Under Portable Devices it lists MyNookColor
Under USB Controllers it lists USB Mass Storage Device
My PC is Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Running Nook Color 1.1.0 rooted and overclocked to 1.1Ghz. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT 2:
So I decided to pull the MicroSD card to simplify things. Uninstalled all instances of Nook from Device Manager and scanned for new hardware. This time I noticed that Windows detected it as a Nook, but then would install the drivers and it would show the same USB Mass Storage Device and the two instances of B&N Disk USB Device. I also noticed that by uninstalling the driver of the USB Mass Storage Device automatically deleted the other two instances under Disk Drives. So I updated the USB Mass Storage Device driver and this time I was able to install the drivers provided, but now it only shows up as an Android Phone > Android ADB Interface (not Composite), but I'm still not able to see it under adb devices.
Help?
EDIT 3:
GOT IT WORKING!!!
For those of you having this same problem this is what I did:
1. Right Click Android ADB Interface (it won't say Composite)
2. Select Update Update Driver Software
3. Click on Browse My Computer For Driver Software
4. Click on Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
5. In the box that pops up click on USB Composite Device
6. Click Next
It now installed the USB Composite Device driver and changes your Android Phone to Android Composite ADB Device.
Open up Command Prompt and type adb kill-server then adb devices and your Nook Color will now show up.
Hope this helps some of you out.
This thing really needs to be pinned somewhere, preferably with IOMonster's first post. There's so many of us starting on this from scratch not able to get adb to see the device. har02's crosspost of hacku's post is what finally got it to work for me. there's a ton of junk out there that just doesn't make sense, and the installing the second driver on the "android interface" is a step that is completely missing from just about every post on this topic.
Aside from that, this forum is what got me buying a nook and happily learning all sorts of cool new things!
THANK you so much har02052, this marks the end of a 6 hour nook-fixing marathong....ahhhhh
For some reason my nook won't show up in windows 7 device manager as anything but a storage device (both the nook and sdcard). It doesn't show up under "other hardware" like all the tutorials show. I am at a loss?
Should I reset my device (unroot, wipe clean, etc)? And try again or am I missing something.
I am looking to get ad hoc working and am stuck in the mud
Depending on what ROM you're running... you may need to go into nook color tools and toggle usb debugging mode... it is a known issue in some ROMs....
You may also need to edit %userprofile$\.android\adb_usb.ini so the only line in it is:
0x2080
anyone have problems in ubuntu 10.04 can't get it :'(
I figuered it might be that I had tried some different kerenels recently. I did eventually return to stock. I have toggled debugging mode to no avail.
I will follow the other instructions you provided and if all else fails wipe her clean and try that.
Thanks.

I have the same problem and am using the stock kernal. I have even tried two different computers (one with Win 7 and the other with XP) and get the same result. The first time it I tried with XP it showed "NookColor" under Other Devices with a ? mark. In just a second, it reloaded Device Manager and would never showed up again. I have tried all suggestions including the USB Debugging toggle with no positive results. By the way, I rooted using auto-nooter 3.0 for Nook Version 1.1. Everything seems to work well and I am using ADW Laucher EX. I am familiar with ADB as I used it root my Motorola Droid. In that case, I had no problems with it seeing my Droid.
Any suggestions would be helpful. I also have Ubuntu on a test computer that I may try if no solutions are found.

I had the same issue in Ubuntu 10.04. My Evo would show up fine. My NookColor I could not get to show up though. No matter what I tried (I tried all the walk throughs on forums, Nookdevs.com, etc).
I finally just gave up. I've just been moving APK's from my Evo to my Nook to install them. There are many other things I'd wish to do through ADB other then install apps though so I may give it another shot sometime soon.
If it worked in some ROM versions and not in others... you need to check the device ID in windows device manager... get the PID for the device listed.... then you will need to add the device PID to the .inf file for the drivers so it will know to use the drivers that work for the "new" device (not really new.. just HWID change in some new kernels/ROMs
I had a world of trouble getting getting my computer to recognize the nook so that ADB would recognize the device. I mean HOURS of debugging.
However.. good news!... The answer that can help you is...: screw it and just download adbwireless app. All you do is run the app while connected to your home network and then on your computer run the the command "adb connect 192.168.1.xxx:5555" and you are connected and can run adb just like you were USB'd up
I hope this helps
Recommend installing the easy ADB install for Windows from the developers forum.
On Win7, sometimes you need to force the driver to use "USB Composite device" or "Android composite USB device", even after doing the easy ADB installer above.
Managed to get ADB working after Autonooker 3.0, Nook 1.1
Hi, All,
I had similar problems. I managed after a bit of fuss on my mac to get ADB up and running.
The main problem seemed to be getting USB debugging working. I went into nook color tools, from ADW launcher. I went to All Settings : Development, and saw that USB debugging was checked, but I didn't believe it was running.
So, I unchecked both Auto Mount (to simplify what the heck was going on over USB) and USB debugging, and hit back, to save the settings. Then I went back into debugging, and re-checked USB debugging.
Then, I made sure that ~/.android/adb_usb.ini contained the line:
0x2080
I killed the adb server and restarted it, and voila, ADB.
Hope this helps some folks.
Dave
I am in the same boat, adb works fine on my other android device, but won't see my nook for anything.
I have tried every permutation I have seen of the rules file, still nothing.
so, stupid question time.
i've used ADB in the past and its worked great so not sure whats going on this time around.
I get the following errors when trying to start adb:
"daemon still not runningerror: cannot connect to daemon"
I have installed moto drivers for droid 3 (32bit), im on win7 32bit. I have my phone on dev mode, and charge only. I have run CMD with admin rights. and still ADB wont turn on.
I have also tried using the new one click method:
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?t=3714&p=75934
anyone have some direction? I did kill adb from my running processes (all instances) and tried all over, no go, same error.
help?
Did you put the phone is PC Mode as opposed to USB Mass Storage?
its supposed to be done in Charing only mode, the issue isn't on my phone setup, it got to do with my darn computer, I can even do an adb devices command... may have to remove the sdk completely and start over.
Put in charge only, use one click method

did you change directory in cmd to the folder that adb is in?
...I had to change to the folder like this cd\program files (x86)\android\android-sdk\platform-tools
The one-click root method is bundled with adb.exe. Except for the driver and a USB cable, it contains everything needed to root.
So trying to use ADB through USB and command prompt with admin. Yet it says device offline. What can I do? I tried restarting everything.
You need initialize first. I just can't remember how I did it :s
Could it be root not working? Not selected connect on the watch? Dodgy cable/usb port?

I'm having the same issue attempting to side load apks via my macbook air using adb. I've tried multiple ports, multiple cables, and just can't figure it out...
Make sure usb debugging is enabled
Check the watch for a confirmation dialog box
