When I tried to install it, it failed and now when I try again it says
bad image
C;\windows
system32\wdcoinstaller01005.dll is either not designed to run windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support
you dont install anything. you extract the android sdk into the c:\. then you copy the two files mention in the thread to c:\windows\system32. you then go to start>run>cmd(enter). type adb devices. ADB is ALL COMMAND LINE. THERE IS NO PROGRAM YOU INSTALL
what two files?

~sigh~ are you sure you read how to do this at all?
adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll are the two files that need to go to system32
and then install the drivers from your usb_driver folder from the SDK. Use the AMD one if you're using a 64bit OS or the Intel one for 32bit OS.
Okay but I get a problem at
Plug in your phone through USB and DO NOT MOUNT IT!!!!!
Your computer should see a new device and try to install Android 1.0 driver (If it doesnt, scroll down to the "Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB" section)
Let it load
Once it cant find them select "Install drivers from my pc"
The drivers you need are in the Android SDK 1.5r2 folder (C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\usb_driver)
Depending on your OS pick x86 or amd64
You ADB Android Device should now be installed! Good Job
I get a problem at this part when I click install drivers from my pc it pops up an error

System Restore and try it again.
that has nothing to do with adb. that means your driver installer that is resident in windows is corrupted. unless you can system restore to a point at which it was working, the only real fix is going to be a new windows install. not entirely sure how one breaks the library for installing device drivers, but hey, thats what you've got.
Ok the problem was solved when I used my other computer.
I have followed these steps..> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 <... ok correct me if im wrong i pluged in my phone pops up found new hardware and it give me three options...

2.Ask me later
3.Dont show this message again for this device

If you installed it properly, you should have "HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface" in your device manager.

If you have windows, you will need these drivers to use ADB or Fastboot with your Nexus 4. The long method of getting this is downloading the SDK and running it. I have extracted the drivers and put it into a rar file for easy use.
Follow these steps if you haven't plugged your phone into your computer before.
1. Download the file.
2. Extra the files into a folder.
3. Plug your phone in.
4. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
5. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
If you already installed other drivers and they don't work for you. Download the drivers below and follow these steps:
1. Enable USB Debugging on your phone.
2. Plug your phone into your computer.
3. Go to Device Manager on your computer and locate your device. It will either be under "Android Devices" or "Other Devices" depending whether drivers have been installed or not.
4. Right click on your phone and select "Uninstall."
5. In the box that appears, check the option to "Delete the driver software for this device" then proceed.
6. When that is done, go back to Device Manager and refresh.
7. Locate your phone and right click to select "Update Driver Software."
8. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
9. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
10. Unplug your phone and restart your computer.
11. Plug it back in and everything should work.

Thanks to efrant for clarifying exactly how to manually select your drivers.
I would suggest everyone download Android SDK.
You have a Nexus device right?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Some people may not want that, or want to have the drivers on their other computer. I for one like having the drivers, I only download the platform-tools folder instead of the whole sdk.
So, thanks OP.
OK... I DL the SDK I'm on win and it says it can't find java even after I DL from java. Any ideas?

This thread is for Nexus 4 drivers, not the SDK.
Ask your question in the Q&A section.

Yep, I never needed the whole SDK before. I only download the platform tools too.
Have any other ADB drivers installed? Because then you need to uninstall those:
Go into command prompt and write:
set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc
Delete all devices including driver software in the "Android Device" section.
Then reinstall the Nexus 4 drivers.
If that still doesn't work, update the driver when connected with usb debugging on and manually add by rightclicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software", then "Let me pick from a list..." then "Show all devices" and then Have disk.
Then you simply point to the driver and select the "Android ADB Interface" (Or something like that) it also has driver for bootloader and composite, bootloader is for fastboot, can't remember what composite is for, but you shouldn't use those.
the stuff from Fisker didn't did it for me
the driver is installed and the device is in debug mode,
but i can't see in adb devices,
any idea?

Go to Device Manager on your PC. If debug mode is enabled, you should see your device listed as an Android phone or something of the sort. If it has a yellow exclamation mark or some sort of symbol next to it, then that means the drivers aren't properly installed. Assuming that is the case, follow FISKER_Q's directions:
Right clicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software." Select the usb_driver folder that you extracted and you should be good to go.

Did you enable debugging on your phone yet?
If not, go to Settings > About phone, then tap on "Build Number" 7 times. Go back to settings and you will see developer options. Go in there to enable USB debugging.
Having the same issue. Fastboot works fine, however I am unable to use ADB (device not listed, however is recognized in device manager without any issues). I have tried uninstalling the drivers, but it re-installs them automatically when I plug the phone back in. Debug mode is enabled.
Edit: Fixed by uninstalling the drivers through the SDK manager, then uninstalling and checking the box to delete the driver software in device manager. Re-installed using instructions and now it works in ADB.

I have exactly the same problem and its driving me nuts! I can't get adb to work. Any suggestions? Did you restart during the whole process?
Of course i tried this:

Try leaving the phone plug in. Go to Device Manager. Find the ADB drivers and uninstall it. While in Device Manager, have it scan for new changes. You should see your phone appear. Right click it and manually install the drivers.

Same here. I'm running windows 7 and it doesn't matter what drivers I try, ADB doesn't list any devices first time I've ever had this issue.

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled through Developer Options on your phone. Once done, plug the phone into your computer. Go to Device Manager on your computer. You should either see something listed under Android Devices or Other Devices. If you see something under Android Devices, uninstall it. If you see it under Other Devices, right click it and browse to manually install the drivers. Select the folder that has the drivers in my original post.

I had to put a check in the box next to "Delete the driver software for this device" to get this to work. Otherwise Device Manager will keep detecting the old drivers.

I got mine working with the following steps, but I had it working on Win8 before updating to 8.1 so it may or may not work for you:
Right click the xt1058 option that shows it has a problem
Select update driver software
Select browse my computer
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
Select ADB interface and hit next
Select Mot Composite ADB interface and click next
After that I was able to get it to connect with mtp, get fastboot responses, and use the adb commands again properly
It works like a charm!

TY SO MUCH, WAS LOOKING FOR FIX FOR HOURS. I didnt notice that option at the bottom im so stupid..
How to get MTP and PTP working
I know this is an old thread. But after an hour of research I figured out the real problem.
You simply can't install the MTP or PTP driver properly because you may have Windows 8.1 Pro N
N is a special version used in Europe where there is no media player and software around it installed to give 3rd party media players a chance.
Howerver, to solve the problem and get the phone found you have to install the device drivers AND the Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1 .
I'm sorry. I would post the direct link to the microsoft download site. But I have never posted in this forum till now and so I'm not allowed to post outside links yet.
But if you copy & paste the following in google you'll be fine and find it in no time: Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1
After you have installed it and rebooted your system the drivers are found and you can see your phone (or camera) in the device manager.
Hope that helps some ppl.
i've tried all suggestions to install the drivers and when i connect my fire to my computer, it shows up as portable device > fire. if i try to update drivers, it says that i am already using the best one, the MTP usb device.
i've followed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63072252&postcount=2
and also tried the drivers from amazon and neither allow me to select the adb driver.

What error message from windows are you getting when you select the ADB driver in device manager?
For Windows 10 in case it's an unsigned driver issue.
Post #84 linux VM solution if your absolutely hitting a wall.
i cannot select the adb drivers, when i try to manually select it, by going the the folder and clicking install, windows says i already have the best drivers installed. if i try to right click and install the inf, it says it is invalid for my computer.
i also have a macbook that i can try this on, are there instruction for a mac?
i'll take a look at the vm thing, but i have no idea about vm's.
thanks.

From the images you posted it looks like you should be able to at least poll your device using the windows version of adb, and start rooting. I'll presume you already have adb installed somewhere on your system, "c:\adb", or something like that.
You should be able to poll your Fire device serial number.
Open a command prompt as administrator, goto your adb directory. On the command line type the following.
adb start-server
adb devices
adb kill-server
On your fire device you should see a popup asking you to approve the USB connecting from xxxxxxx hardware id when you try to poll it.
If you get this far you can proceed with the root process for whichever version of Fire OS 5.x.x you have.
i tried that and polling comes up with nothing. after running adb devices, there is no popup on the fire and it lists nothing.

for some reason, on only one out 4 of my win 10 rigs, i had to turn off driver signature enforcement. to do this go to settings, update and security, recovery, advanced startup, restart now. then in the restart menu push, troubleshoot, advanced options, startup settings, then restart. when booted choose "Disable driver signature enforcement" (which is option 7 on current build). now try to install the drivers. after successful just do a normal restart to enable the signature enforcement again

Can you verify that, "android debug" mode is turned on in the Fire devices developer settings? At least that was the only way I could reproduce the same message output from "adb devices".
I faut with my win 7 laptop for about an hour with one of my fires. Has the yellow icon on unknown device. Ended up "update driver" "browse for file" "let me choose from a list" picked Android/adb composite device. Adb and fast boot now work. I originally had to install Android studio and some extras to get my first fire to link up. Pm if you need help.
