[Q] ADB device not found

Hey guys!
In advance I'm sorry for asking something that has probably been asked many times before, but I'm unable to find the right answer.
Okay let's start at the beginning. My HTC one with an unlocked bootloader on stock started to display a very irritating bug in that sometimes the screen would not rotate and was stuck in landscape mode. Nothing would help nor rebooting, nor calibrating the sensor. Only booting into the bootloader would somehow help.
Until it did not.
I tried a factory reset, which did not help and then tried just wiping Dalvik and Cache, which did not help too.
Then I tried wiping Data and System, which I now know was very stupid.
The current problem is that I can't figure out how to send a new ROM to my HTC one using adb, when typing adb devices the device does not show up.
My computer does see the device, listed under Android USB devices ad My HTC. I think Fastboot too, recognized the device, because I am able to get the Identifier token.
I have installed the drivers and installed HTC Sync manager. I have restarted my Pc multiple times and changed the USB port the device is connected to.
I too, tried mounting the USB, but either I'm doing it wrong, or it does not work.
Hope one of you can help me! I've been at this all day long...

Adb commands only work when you're booted in the rom or recovery. Fastboot uses fastboot commands. Do you have a custom recovery? If so, you can adb sideload a rom. If not, you can fastboot flash a custom recovery assuming your bootloader is unlocked. You may have mentioned it in your post I just can't remember. Good luck!

Thanks for the help!
Yes, I unlocked my bootloader and have twrp installed.
I think I have narrowed down the problem: that my device is not recognized by the computer in twrp.
When in fastboot, My computer does recognize the device, listed as an HTC one, so the drivers are not the problem.
When booting into recovery, me computer only recognizes the phone for about 3 seconds, when it dissapears.
I have been able to see the device in Adb (using Adb devices).
What could I do? Adb sideload does not work because the computer does not recognize the device.

Hi,
You're on Windows? If yes which version?

Windows 7, but if needed I do have access to a win 8 PC as well.
All x64 by the way.

Ok, maybe take a look here if you use USB 3.0?: [FIX]Fastboot problems on Windows 8 x64 with USB 3.0? Solution inside.
It might work on Windows 7 too, there is a link for the drivers for x64.
Maybe using a toolkit to use ADB/fastboot? Take a look here:
[TOOL]HTC One (M7) All-In-One Toolkit V3.1
[TOOL]HTC One (M7) AIO Toolkit | v1.4

Okay, from now on I'll only use USB 2.0.
I tried these two toolkits, but they suffer the same problem as me in that in order for adb sideload to work the device has to be recognized for longer than 3s after booting into recovery.

I just bought a female-female USB adapter, hopefully installing a rom from a usb stick will work
Ofcourse help would still be greatly appreciated as i will have to wait for over a week till the USB adapter arrives.

[Q] HTC One: Think I've Fudged It :(

Hope this is in the right place.
I formatted my HTC1 like an idiot when I meant to wipe and am a little stuck.
ADB doesn't register on my PC so I can't sideload.
No installed ROM so I can't get into the system.
RUU flashes fail with a (remote: 24 parsing android-info fail)
Rooted, S-On and I have custom recovery images... TWRP and CWM...
I've tried everything I can think of and everything google can think of...
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

If you know someone with an OTG cable you can load it off a thumbdrive

You should be able to ADB Push a Rom to your phone, then ADB Sideload it. May need to reflash recovery first, I recommend TWRP

The only thing I can think of then is to find an RUU for your phone hopefully. ADB Push/Sideload normally works in your situation. Try a different cable, different USB port, different computer

This guide saved my a$$ too, when I accidentally deleted my system folder. Try a different PC, it works all the time, it will work for you too.
And oh, OTG didn't work for me. I suggest you try a different machine.

humbug got my OTG cable this morning and it appears to work fine... installed Revolution HD 20.1.. tells me install compete and reboots and then brings me to the same blank screen I've been staring at for the last couple of days.
I'm obviously missing something but...

do you have a windows computer?
you most likely just need to install some drivers and then ADB will work.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/74163067/HTC ONE DRIVERS.zip
those are the windows drivers. unzip the folder. open device manager. see here http://i.imgur.com/9LeGRJI.png
right click the "htc one" > "update driver software" > "browse my computer" then select the folder where you extracted the zip to. it will automatically install the correct driver. do the same for "my HTC" or any other devices that appear in those two top-level menus.

Have been through multiple drivers, some of which apparently work but still cant find the device when i try to push or sideload.
Have just done a full wipe and am going to attempt starting again from scratch with TWRP and Revolution HD.
Just to clarify I have tried multiple ports and cables, even bought a new USB 3 card, I don't have access to another PC or Laptop.

Adb doesn't like usb 3, apparently.. Are you sure you're opening the cmd window from inside the adb/fastboot folder?

sideload is working as I type... it seems flashing recovery as aposed(SP?) to just booting a recovery makes a world of difference, will let you know if the install works. usb3 doesn't seem to be an issue though.

Hussah! It works! Thankyou all for you suggestions and input it has been greatly appreciated!

To flash with adb you need to boot ur phone in recovery mode, not in the bootloader... Took me a while to understand that

PC won't recognize HTC One after installing KitKat 4.4 Sinless ROM 5.1.1

Hey guys, flashed Sinless 5.1.1 last night and ever since installing this particular ROM I'm unable to access my phone's folders via MTP or anything. I've tried re-installing drivers on my PC, rebooting phone and PC several times, trying to access my phone in ADB and fastboot... I can't even push or sideload a new ROM so I really don't know what to do!
Anyone got any idea what to try next and/or how to solve this?

Did you enable Developers options USB debugging?
If not go to about phone and click on Build number a
bunch of times. If that doesn't work install latest HTC
drivers.

Tried both, to no avail.
EDIT: It was working fine yesterday on Insertcoin 4.3 ROM, so I'm copying that back to my phone via WIFI transfer, gonna flash that and see if I get USB access back.

I'm actually running that exact ROM and my phone is seen on both my Mac and Windows 7.
Did you try a different USB port? Does a message pop up on your phone asking to trust your
computer? My computer wouldn't see my phone until I accepted that pop up.
If you've tried all that then give a little more info on your PC so we can diagnose it.

I never saw any message pop up. I've tried 4 different USB 2.0 ports. My USB 3.0 ports aren't usable.
I am runnings Windows 7 x64 Ultimate with latest HTC drivers installed.

Kinda stumped then! Only thing I can think is that you don't have the very latest drivers.
Can you ADB and see the phone? Check the following thread on how to do this.
(Sorry if you already know how)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506

If I do "adb devices", nothing shows up. Simple commands like "adb reboot" respond with "error: device not found".
I've just flashed ARHD 31.6 (Android 4.3) and re-installed drivers and my phone still isn't recognisable. I'm lost!

Okay, big trouble now!! I just read elsewhere that it could be an internal storage corruption problem, so without thinking I formatted internal storage along with data and system in recovery and attempted to ADB sideload a new ROM and was going to start over. Stupid idea! ADB still isn't working so now I can't even sideload or push a ROM. All I have to work with now is fastboot and recovery, and my PC isn't recognizing either of them. Any ideas?

YOU AREN'T GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!!!
Girlfriend stayed over the weekend and happened to swap our USB cables over. She left and took my OTG cable and left me with her identical looking USB charge only cable.
Just tried my mother's Nokia cable and voila! Installing device drivers.
Now to sideload a ROM and start from scratch -.-

I know this thread is old but if someone stumbles upon it this is what I did.
New USB worked.
***While using the USB cord that wouldn't connect like it usually does, I re-installed HTC Sync Manager and it immediately recognized it.

Strange Fastboot behaviour

Hello,
A long time stalker of these forums, but first time poster so apologies if this is in the wrong place.
I'm quite experienced with rooting and installing custom roms, my M7 is currently running CM and I've got the scars from bricking devices over the years! However this current problem has got me stumped and I wonder if anyone here has seen something similar.
I'm running the latest skinny Android fastboot / adb files. If I boot my phone into recovery > fastboot while connected to my pc everything is wonderful, fastboot devices can see the phone. However if I reboot the phone to desktop, fastboot on my PC doesn't do anything. I've tried different HTC drivers, USB cables and ports etc.
The strange thing is it was fine a few months ago!
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Ben

I should also add when the device is plugged into the PC, Windows recognises it ok.

bootloader: you can use fastboot commands (no adb)
custom recovery: you can use adb commands (no fastboot)
booted up ROM + USB debugging: you can use adb commands (no fastboot)

Just a quick update, solved!
It was actually something up with the HTC drivers, I'd noticed that HTC Sync had updated (never use that thing anyway). Quickly nuked all mention from the machine, reinstalled drivers via the brilliant HTC One Toolbox and everything is good again.
Interestingly I also had some problems getting S-Off on this device but Firewater seems to have solved it as well.
Thanks for the replies!

[Solved]M7 Soft bricked,ADB/Fastboot not working,No OS as well,TWRP 2.6.3.3

Hello.I am in some kind of a trouble..I just bought a phone with firmware problems,hoping i could make it work.The problem is this,someone tried to update the firmware,unsuccesfully,and now it's stuck with no OS.I can only start recovery and bootloader.
Recovery is Teamwin 2.6.3.3.Already tried to clear cache and everything,to use an USB with OTG,but it's not recognised,ADB sideload also it's not working.
adb devices shows the phone is not connected,and FastBoot says "Waiting for device".Any idea? I've tried,read a lot,but I can't really work it out..
Also,I can't find the device in Device Manager,neither in ADB nor Fastboot.
I tried using Windows 8.1 and 7..Same deal.
Thank you!

Is it a M8 or a M7, because your title says M8 but you have posted in the M7 forum.

Sorry,I am quite scared.It's M7.

First, follow instructions given in this post to install the latest android sdk-tools and the latest htc drivers. Also make sure you don't have HTC Sync installed on your computer.
Then connect your phone to you computer with the original cable (or any other cable already known to work for data transfer - some usb cable are only providing power), reboot the phone in bootloader mode by holding vol down and power. Make sure you see the red "fastboot usb" caption on the screen, if not use vol up/down and power to select the "fastboot" menu. Once there open a command window form the android sdk-tools folder and type "fastboot getvar all". Copy/paste the ouput of this command here (except the imei and serialno).

I've followed that,and still not working.pics attached.
It's very weird,because I was expecting for a soundfrom the Windows,like a new device connected .But ..nothing

With your phone in bootloader/fastboot mode, go to your windows device manager, take a screenshot of your device manager and post it here please.

The unknown device is related to my laptop.Nothing happens when I connect the phone.

Ok so its not detected at all
Might be caused by
a bad usb cable --> Try another one that you are 100% sure its working
a bad usb port on the computer (use only usb 2.0 ports btw)
a problem with the computer ---> Try another computer.
a bad usb port on the phone ---> need to replace the usb/front mic board
Might also worth to fix your laptop drivers problem. Might be causing problem if the "unknown" device is an adapter or usb controller...
Then reboot the computer.

I think we can exclude the first two,because I've tried 2 different USB cables,and with my S2 ,both of them are working,even ADB.I will try to replace the usb port from the phone,and then try again.But,do you think it will work ?
Thank you!

Its hard to tell, there isn't any background info about what was done on that phone. The usb board is pretty cheap so it worth a try if you are 100% sure everything else is fine (computer, cables etc..)

I understand,but,I mean,as far as I know,it's not hard brick,because the phone is still booting..in some way ..so if I manage to connect it,I can flash the rom..am I right?

Normally it should be pretty easy to fix if you can get fastboot and adb connectivity. You could then update the firmware so you can flash the correct RUU to restore the phone back to stock, already made the research and all the files (firmware and ruu) you'll need are available.

Sorry for the late reply,the phone is now in service,in 1-2 days they should fix the USB board,and I will get back with more info soon.
Thank you very much for your quick answers and for taking time to help me!

Good news,I've managed to unbrick it.I asked a friend with a Mac to check it out,and his Mac recognized with no problems.Installed the Os,but still,Windows can't detect it.I've tried on 2 pc's(7 and 10) with the proper drivers.Weird..
Anyway,thank you for your time @alray !
