trying to get S-Off via Vbox/Windows 7 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have adb installed and it is working at the Cmd Prompt.
The phone is seen by Vbox and seems to be captured by W7 (when I quit Vbox, I see the phone on the USB devices pulldown).
But when I run adb devices - nothing.
I have installed HTC Sync to get the drivers, then uninstalled HTC Sync. Only the driver remains.
suggestions? Thanks
BTW, I'm on an MBA running 10.8.5, but no HTC or other android apps are installed/

Virtual machines cannot be used to fastboot/adb/S-OFF. However, through Firewater, you can S-OFF natively on Mac OS. Else, if it doesn't work (no idea why it shouldn't), bootcamp the Mac.

tried firewater on the Mac. NG.
why would bootcamp be any different than Vbox?
Why would FW work any differently on another OS?
I was led to believe that is FW didn't work on the Mac it won;t work from another OS.

Yes, bootcamp is a native Windows install. VMware is dependent upon the host computer's drivers. The drivers needed for fastboot/adb require a native install. I RUU'ed mine perfectly through a Windows 7 bootcamp install.
But, again:

This video clearly explains how to do it on a Mac. If it still doesn't work, well, Bootcamp is needed.

Windows 7 G1 Drivers

Any chance anyone knows where to find some or has made any drivers for the G1 and win 7?
what do you mean? the G1 works perfectly fine with windows 7. Using the old drivers i used with Vista.
Vista drivers worked fine with me on the Windows 7 RC, have not tried on the final yet cause I dont have it
android 1.5r3 drivers confirmed working on win7 7600 x86 & x64.
Yesterday I connected my G1 to my Win 7 Pro laptop and after updating the driver, yes, the old driver from Vista worked (dunno why at first Win 7 didn't see it).
One issue I ran into that renders my laptop useless for working with my G1 though is that the Command Prompt launches and closes immediately. Asides from that, it sees the G1 as an ADB device with the proper driver.

That's no fun, does it still do that if you: Winkey+r, type "cmd" + enter ?

Don't have the laptop with me right now, but I'll give it a shot.
SDK 1.5r3 works perfectly for me on windows 7. Just make sure you run command prompt as administrator
Of course, I don't set my personal machines as anything else other than Admin.
The Winkey + r, cmd, enter worked just fine. Stupid Start menu...
Thanks guys.
I have been useing Windows 7 and the G1 for around a month now with no problems, i didnt have to update any drivers, just plugged it in and it worked. Unless your talking about the Android ADB sdk tools. then read above.
Yeah it works Fine now.. It ended up being an issue with the usb port driver.

[Q] no more adb ??

hi all i'm not new of this forum and i think i know much of this but in these days i'm having trouble with adb.
i'm not in my house (where it works perfect) but i'm in austria, where i live and have a job.
i'm trying to "install" adb in several pc, windows (xp, seven) and linux (both ubuntu desktop and netbook 10.10).
the error is ever the same:
1. i download the sdk from http://developer.android.com/sdk/older_releases.html
i prefer use the oldest release because i just use adb and nothing else.
2. in win7 the adb driver comes installed automaticaly as soon as i plug my phone to pc
in winxp not, but in sdk 1.1 r1 there are the usb drivers.. (that in my house with both 1.1 and 1.6 worked fine)
in linux i downloaded his right sdk and edited the 51-android.rules and add the executable permission.
(in my house i used ubuntu 8.04 and there wasnt need to edit this file..)
the problem is that when i do:
adb devices (or ./adb devices)
i can see: daemon start etc... list of deviced attached *empty*
there's nothing! i tried a lot of time, with xp, seven, ubuntu.. don't know what to do more.
what should i do?
htc dream - rooted - death spl and 2.22.23.02 radio - amon ra 170 - cm 508 (and also 601)
thanks
You've tried different methods and even different os's, seems to me your common factors are usb port and cable.
I use ubuntu 10.10 and setup fastboot just last week. I grabbed the small package (adb and fastboot binaries) rather than the whole sdk.
My first question is, what are the results of lsusb when g1 is connected running linux?
sent via XDA app on my G1/Dream Rogers
hboot-1.33.0013d
radio-2.22.27.08
update-cm-6.1.0-RC1-DS-2708port_S

thanks for have answered!
yes i've tried also in 3 different pc's, and my cable works good :/
lsubs can see my device, now i havent my ubuntu with me, but yes, it can see my device!
it's so strange because it never happened before, using xp, seven or ubuntu 8.04 in my house, it all worked fine since the first installation
Edit:
I added a screenshot to let you see it. yes i'm using a virtual machine but because i'm at work now.
in my pc with ubuntu netbook it's the same, and lsusb can see it too like here.
Edit 2:
I tried with backtrack 3 (from pendrive) and it works.. also without editing 51-android.rules ..... F**K

ADB on Windows 8

Some time ago, I went from stock Amazon OS to Chameleon OS. After that, I lost ADB connection on my family's laptop running Windows 7. Now I'm running CM10.2, and I'm trying to figure out how to enable ADB on my Windows 8 laptop. For a while I could do it over Wi-Fi using ADB Wireless, but now it's having issues. Is there anyway to get ADB over USB on Windows 8?

Thanks! The thread you linked me to didn't work for me. I did disable driver signature enforcement though, something I've been meaning to do for a while. I ended up just using stunt's ADB drivers. They work when I'm in the root of the folder where I keep them, but if I add the folder to the PATH statement, it acts like I'm using the old ADB drivers. :silly:
Oh well. Again, thanks!

Q: USB Not Recognised while in Fastboot

Hey guys,
Wonder if you can all help me,
Im not new to Rooting, but i have never come across this error before, ive searched accross XDA and Google, but cannot for the life of me find a fix, found a couple of things about deleting a registry file, and installed the One drivers which i had downloaded from here. I Do not have HTC Sync installed.
When device is powered up normally and connected to USB it as fine. When i reboot the Device into fastboot and connect it, i get a Error saying USB Device not recognised.
When i goto device manager, its shows up as My One under HTC, but has a Yellow '!' in a triangle, when i click on properties it states a code 10 Device Fails To Start error.
Please help as this is really frustrating me... Ive tried everything! And i really dont want to re-set my whole laptop as i will lose ALOT of data!
Like i said, im not new to this, as been doing this since the days of the HTC HD2...Am i missing something? Having a thick moment?
Running Windows 8.1.
If anyone really knows what this could be and could possibly fix, let me know as have team viewer and would gladly let you connect to me to help me out (Donation for your time aswell)
Thanks in Advance!
Really simple mate, windows 8.1 isnt compatible with fastboot drivers for now. Only adb is working atm. So dont be scared, your phone have no problem, its only because you updated to 8.1
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Edit: there is a possible fix if your computer is based on intel chipset usb 3.0. Just google something like Windows 8.1 fastboot fix. Otherwise I think you will need to wait or simply use another computer with win7 or 8.0 or maybe dual boot win7 or even boot win7 with a vm?
Edit 2: search the forum, there is a "how to" force win7 fastboot drivers installation on win8.
Perfect buddy worked a Treat! Thankyou so much! I was getting so frustrated haha!
Didnt know it was a problem with Windows, so just needed to change the search terms, do'h!
For all those that has the problem in the future, a link for the fix!
Clicky!
Mods, this can now be closed, fixed!
fastboot for windows 8.1 over linux and this is my option to work fastboot on win 8.1
load wubi (windows ubuntu installer) over the link http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Wubi
than install ubuntu, on harddrive C:// and reboot your Pc
Now you have a linux in your current system, you can remove ubuntu (linux) in Programms & feautures list in windows.
now reboot reboot the system and isntall in ubuntu fastboot.
you musst give in the terminal sudo apt-get fastboot
and now you can flash your bootloader in linux.
but you musst sudo bevor you type fastboot flash type sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
adb is working to on linux
i love wubi <3
you say it is easy
gooogle wubi (windows ubuntu installer)
tried running ubuntu in a virtual machine still no go guess the vm needs the windows driver to see the damn usb ports ffs
anyone know if for sure it will work if i actually install ubuntu to a partition?
Sony vaio 13 i7-4500u so only got usb3 ports and small hard drive didnt wanna dual boot really

[Q] ADB device not found

My ADB is not working... So basically I messed up my HTC ONE by formatting the whole device including system... I'm not sure what to do now. My ADB isn't working. Ive updated the ADB drivers, and updated SDK for Google. My device is not detected by my computer. When i'm in fastboot mode my phone is detected. Is there any other way of pushing a file to my device?
exactly where im at, my windows 8 cant detect but my windows 7 can detect once i move the thing down to fastboot. Shows "Android 1.0"
