sorry if this clutters up the forum for a bit, i promise to delete it when it dies.
i've recently started using adb when i flashed over to 5.0.2h. i followed the instructions in the tutorial and was able to use adb. 2 nights ago, i began doing more complicated commands (for me) and tried to push a .apk into /system/app.
i wasn't immediately successful but i eventually got it in there and decided to reboot my phone. after this reboot, however, i lost the use of adb. i tried upgrading to the usb drivers haykuro posted, uninstalling them and re-trying the old one, rebooting the computer, rebooting my phone and none of it works. i've since wiped my phone and flashed it with the latest h build from haykuro (thanks haykuro!) but that didn't work either. now i'm trying to see if the 1.5 sdk will work.
i was wondering if anyone would have an idea about what i should do next. should i reinstall adb? try it on another computer? another cable? it's not the worst loss in the world, my phone is fine and my usb cable still works in the conventional way. i even checked to see if i somehow lost root and i was able to get su on the terminal emulator. but i still want the use of adb for nandroid, if nothing else.
thanks in advance!
I had the same problem after flashing to the G rom. I couldn't get ADB to work but fastboot recognized my phone and I was able to flash back to my backup. First time I did a complete wipe before flashing, second time, no wipe, made no difference in either case for me
When you plug Dream into your computer, does it show up in the Device Manager list? What is the entry? Hopefully it says HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface
I just had the same problem, I had to update the driver and it is working fine now.
Which driver did you use? I downloaded the one on the saphire port project page, but couldn't find a way to install it. When I open device manager, there is no ADB interface listed.

Here it is. http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip after downloading this when you go to update your driver in device manager make sure to use this. Hopefully this will help it worked for me.

yes, that's what it comes up as. and i've tried the usb drivers from haykuro's page and they didn't work before and after rebooting my computer.
i'm on vista and it wont accept the updated drivers. it downloads the standard removable memory drivers and wont let me update to anything else. anybody have any ideas
just installed the 1.5 apk and adb and it works again. for people running haykuro builds, i would suggest trying this if you have adb problems. just intall the 1.5 sdk as normal, copy adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll into \system32 and you should be good.
unless requested i will delete this thread in two days. thanks everyone!
Hmm... i tried that and its still not working ):
Ive tried like 10 different USB drivers from various sites including this one, downloaded the 1.5 SDK and installed it, wen through several reboots and it always says either that the driver is for the wrong platform, the most up to date one is ALREADY installed (HTC Bootloader), or that Windows couldn't find any drivers.
Under ADB Interface in device manager is "%USB\VID_0BB4&PID0FFF.DeviceDescRelease%"
did you try and update the driver through the device manager? i've heard that it's the only way to update it for some people.
I had already Posted & Solved This Issue here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493703
Go Check It, It ll work for sure....
90% of the time the problem is with the drivers etc. Use this tutorial to fix that : http://goo.gl/OS3Vi
If you still encounter the problem then you can use ADBwireless available at google play to wirelessly connect your device to the computer
Hope it helps :highfive:
Hi
I actually replying about the bible quote you have mentioned? you into theology?
I have 2 Nexus One's. The first was rooted and I had the ADB USB driver (v3) installed on my Windows XP Pro SP3 desktop and all worked fine.
I now have a second Nexus One. I rooted it, and after turning on "USB debugging" and wanting to use it with ADB, the driver USB installed again. But now I get constant "Found New Hardware Wizard" install loops, for both phones with "USB debugging" turned on.
Every time I plug either phone in, or reboot, Windows wants to reinstall the ADB driver. Right after it completes a driver install it wants to do it again.
Solutions I've tried; I have rebooted after install, uninstalled the drivers from Device Manager, deleted the drivers manually from the registry, removed any possibly associated hidden drivers that were marked error in Device Manager, and combinations of the above in various order.
I know that USB driver install loops on Windows can happen to any type of device, not just the Nexus, but in my case it's only on the ADB driver for Nexus One.
Can anyone suggest what I can do other than what I listed to stop the ADB driver endless install loop, or what is causing it?
Thank you.

No, I haven't found a solution to this yet. And you are the only person here that has replied.
I did contact Google and HTC and asked for their help. But since the phone is rooted I got the expected replies from both, that rooting violates warranty so they refused to help. I was expecting that, but have heard that the occasional tech support person at Google will still offer support within reason. But not in my case.
If and when I figure this out, I'll post it here to help you out.

Hi JohnG75,
Just wanted to let you know my constant ADB driver reinstalls have stopped. But unfortunately I have nothing constructive to point out as a solution. I spent hours online researching for a possible solution, and found nothing worthwhile yet. I've posted in several places and got no helpful replies other than trying System Restore and going back to a point before this happened. Of course that's hardly a guaranteed fix, plus you loose any other updates and installs you have made since then.
In my case, I left "USB debugging" turned off on my phone since I wrote you last, and the only thing that has changed system wise for me, is I have installed 2 unrelated device drivers since, and MS has pushed out a security update. So today when I turned "USB debugging" back on in the phone, it did a single device install, and it didn't repeat. So hopefully this resolves it for me.
If I were to take a guess as to what appears to have solved it in my case, I would say it was the new unrelated device driver installs. Perhaps it cleared whatever was wrong in the device driver system. So maybe if you were to install some new device driver you need, or uninstall an existing one, reboot and then reinstall that same device driver, perhaps it will clear whatever is messed up in your device drivers.
Sorry I can't be of more help, and my suggestion is only a guess based on my only recent system changes.
There is very little documented solutions to this problem out there, only lots of people that have complained about the same type of problem, with every sort of device you can think of. And the solutions documented are always specific to those exact devices.
OK folks, I know some of you are going to jump straight down my throat, but please, back off and stick to the friendly forums that this used to be where anyone would help anyone.
the story so far is that I once loved my Nexus One, I've had it since launch, I have ran Cynogen Mod 7 for a couple of years, I have had MUI roms running, I have played with various kernels, updated radio, upgraded hardware, all was going wonderfully.
the one thing I could never get was full SU!! Heck knows why!!
I then started getting random problems and downloaded the original google frf83 software and flashed the phone via update.zip using amon-ra recovery.
I thought all was well after this, as my phone received 3 OTA updates and now my phone is on...
Android 2.3.6
Baseband 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04
Kernel 2.6.35.7-59465-g42bad32 ([email protected] #1)
Build GRK394
I noticed that in the Status (settings) it was displaying my old sim card number, which is not the number for the sim in the phone now. his I thought was odd and that something had gone wrong.
So as most of us would do, I went to boot AmonRa recovery and it wasnt available, it had been overwritten with the default recovery; ok lets just ADB and reflash it, I hadnt used ADB for a couple of years because I did everything through AmonRa's awesome recovery!!
So off I go, install the SDK, all the appropriate packs including the USB driver, just like I did when I originally flashed the phone with the recovery image!
But an old problem came back that I hadnt even been bothered about because I always put stuff on SDcard via a card reader!!
I have had consistent problems with my nexus one for some time now in regards to the USB drivers, no matter what I do the phone will not install and I believe it could be some conflict in the device.
I am running Vista Ultimate (fully registered) and no matter what I do I cannot get the Nexus One to install. It will only display as unknown device, which is absolutely useless.
I have browsed every post and tried everything I have found, and yet nothing is working. I have used devmgmt, I have tried the roll backs, I have tried to install every driver available to get it working. I have uninstalled the device, updated drivers after fresh install attempts, I have even formatted my laptop thinking it may have had a corrupt OS and bought Vista Ultimate.
I am not a complete noob and I have been around these forums for some years, but I never thought I would have to cry out like a 4ucking Noob with such a seemingly simple problem, but it is not simple, I have done everything I can possibly find!!
I must get the USB working in order to get the recovery back, I can access my phones default recovery but it will not work when trying various roms as update.zip!!
I have tried the terminal commands on the phone to install the recovery.img but I do not have SU access and the phone point blank refuses.
I have attempted to change and remove the recovery files reffered that are causing the revert to default recovery, but shock.. I cannot delete because of insufficient permissions. I cannot ADB because the USB driver refuses to install.
So if I cannot change the files due to permissions, I cannot ADB because of USB, I cannot get to Ra's recovery because of bootfiles, I cannot use default recovery to update.zip... I am absolutely losing my mind and I'm going nuts browsing the forums for the second week running, yes I am now on day 12 of trying to fix this problem and at a complete loss...
Can someone please help??
I will even allow remote access to pc because I am that desperate to resurrect my beloved Nexus One.
I also have a Galaxy I9000 without 3 button download mode but that is an entirely different story!!
Please just someone, come to an oldskoolers rescue, and yes PAYMENT will be given to the knight in shiny armour!!
You could try on another computer which doesn't run Vista

Or just use fastboot instead of adb...
His Nexus One isn't recognized by the computer, so that won't help unfortunately. Also, I've never heard of build GRK394..

Install the drivers for fastboot already Jeez and then read How to use android for dummies.
Hello! If you're reading this i hope you can help me, cause right now i have no idea what to do. First I'm going to tell my phone specs. I have a rooted, Moto X 2nd Edition XT1092, without any custom ROM installed, running Android Lollipop, with the option to upgrade to marshmallow and an unlocked bootloader. It uses the google launcher by default. I am pretty experienced with root as i have used rooted android phones for more than 4 years now (my first one was a Samsung Galaxy S2) and haven't had any problems until now. I had recently downloaded FaceNiff, one of the sniffing apps for android, and when i pressed start, it would automatically stop. I thought it was maybe a problem of the apps compatibility with my phone, but after researching for a long time, nothing came up so i decided to try another sniffing app. I moved on to DroidSniff, yet, I had the same problem, but this one wouldn't only stop, it would crash. I researched on this app too. Nothing. So I later downloaded one called DroidSheep, and when I started this one, I was lucky that an error was displayed, it was something about Position Independent Executables (PIE), it said "Only Position Independent Executables are supported" or something around those lines. So I decided to research PIE, and I found on the XDA Forums that you could fix this by changing the system/bin/linker file for a custom linker file, which a download link was provided for. I downloaded the file, changed it for the old linker file and tried the apps again. Apparently, I didn't have root access anymore! None of the root apps worked, I thought maybe I had to reboot my phone for my root to come back or for the custom linker to work. So i powered off my phone, turned it on, but instead of turning on, it would say the "Warning unlocked bootloader" thing, and then show a picture of and Android lying down with a caution sign, with the text "No Command" underneath. It's currently in this state, and the phone won't stop repeating this until it runs out of battery. The good thing is I can hold the power and volume down button to enter the fastboot menu, and i can then go into recovery. After this happened, I went to recovery and factory reset my phone, but it still didn't work, so I factory reset it again. It still charges, with a wall plug and with a computer. I think the computer recognises the phone, and I'm pretty sure I have USB Debugging enabled.
To sum this up, I changed the file system/bin/linker for a modified version of it and my phone won't boot up.

I do not know if finally you fixed the problem with your moto, but you can do a clean install of a stock rom, or maybe cm12/cm12.1...

Hey! Thanks a lot for the advice, ill try to do what you said, although im not sure how to use fastboot. Ill tell you if it worked.
Hello,
this is my first thread/post on this forum, if I did anything wrong please don't be super harsh and inform me to what to do better, thanks.
So why am I asking for help anyways you may ask, well I had my old Xperia Z1 laying around here for quite a while now and wondered if I could do anything productive with it.
So I came up with the idea to install a CFW like Lineage OS or something else.
This is not my first rooted and cfw phone but the first one what gives me nightmares and a headache.
So after reading all of the nice guides how to root it and how to unlock it, nothing of them is working for me, most of the threads have missing files which I cannot find on google or other just simply won't work for me.
First of all, I have rooted my phone via KingRoot in the meantime since the other methods where not working either.
I have turned on usb-debugging and also allowed installation from unknown sources.
And there we start with the first problem, downloaded the google SDK and installed all adb things I needed, did not work, then I tried it from the official sony website, downloaded the usb-driver folder and tried to install it manually, won't work either, because the device manager always gave me error code 10 "device cannot be started", I tried different sources and even die google studio thing and everything ended up with the same result.
Same error code even when I tried to activate fastboot on my phone by pressing down the volume up button, pluging the usb cable in, and yet again the same error message for this device too.
I am using windows 10 and never had such problems before with sony devices.
I hope someone of you can help me out to find a solution, if you need any further information, just let me know.
Did you solve this?
I have the same problem

This may sound stupid or ridiculous, but yes I managed to work it out and was able to install the CWF on my phone which is working perfectly fine.
Since nobody was willing to help me I just skipped the part where I wanted to post my solution but yeah, this may help you too.
So what did I do? Simply I stopped using Windows 10 for this project, I just used one of my older PC's which still had Windows 7 Ultimate on it.
I just rooted the phone via KingRoot, since it was the only solution what kinda worked out for me, then I was able to install all needed SDK, fastboot and ADB files on my PC and was able to use the ones from the Sony site itself this time and after plugin in the phone to the PC, it installed everything else what was needed for the device manager.
After that was done with no error I was finally able to unlock the phone via the command which you can find also on the Sony website.
If you find this helpful or need any extra information just let me know, maybe I can help you then. Oh and if you found out a solution for you what worked, would be nice to hear that too.
