ADB access broken....beyond frustrated

This about as short as I could make it:
I haven't tried to use ADB with my G1 for about a month, so I'm not exactly sure when the problem started, but it's become a royal headache now. For whatever reason when I launched ADB shell today, I got an error saying 'device not found'. The first thing I did was check device manager where I noticed the phone showed as a 'USB composite device' with a yellow exclamation mark over it. I thought to myself "drivers." So I tried pointing it to the driver in the Android SDK folder. That just popped an error saying that Windows couldn't find a better driver match than the one I was already using.
From there I got the googling and came across this insanely long Google Groups thread. Following the advice listed, I started pulling some USB .sys files. I tried using an older copy of the USB driver from a previous SDK. I tried using Haruyko's modified USB driver. None would install.
Same error.
Reading down some more I saw that some people had success with with usinfg HTC Sync. It was worth a shot, right? Well it certainly made things different, but doesn't resolve the issue. Now in device manager I have an 'HTC Remote NDIS' listing under Network Connections. The old 'USB Composite Device' item is now gone. But still, I can't use ADB. "Device not found."
It's driving me nuts.
At this point I figured that it'd be best to try this on a different PC. Maybe my primary one is wonking out. These things happen. Well, that hope was quickly crushed when I discovered that NOT EVEN on a VANILLA XP SP3 setup, will Windows detect the G1. I downloaded a fresh copy of the SDK, plugged it in, pointed it to the USB driver....and nothing. Same error as PC number one:
"Windows can't find a better version of the driver than you're currently using."
Tried switching the USB cable. Same thing.
Back to PC number one, I removed all HTC software from 'Add/Remove Programs, then ran USBDeview. There, I removed the HTC NDIS device, unplugged the G1, and plugged it back in.
The HTC NDIS Remote device returned. **** my life.
SO.....before I throw this phone into traffic, does anyone have any clue as to what's going on here? All I want to be able to do is regain ADB access to my phone. I don't care about USB tethering (and toggling that option does nothing btw) or none of that. Just looking to regain ADB access. The only thing that's changed since the last time I used ADB is the version of Cyanogen's mod. I'm currently using v4.2.3.1. Maybe this broke shell access?
Thoughts?
**EDIT***
-Toggling USB debugging does nothing either.
-Ditto that for Fastboot

device not found has to do with the phone....make sure your cable is not messed up.

is the phones usb port ok? can you transfer files over it? if your about to throw the phone away....at least try flashing the RC29 image again

As far as I know the USB port is ok. It charges fine. And to update everyone on where I am, I tried the following today:
-Removed all HTC software (Sync and Drivers).
-Used USBDeview to remove all instances of HTC, and Android devices.
-Tried downgrading my test machine (PC #2) to Service Pack 2.
-Tried a third USB cable.
And I'm still getting the same problem. So there's no doubt in my mind that it has to be the phone. Like I said, the only thing I've done lately is update the version of Cyanogen's ROM.
I know it definitely worked before I updated to v4.2.3.1. Also I noticed that I am no longer able to mount the sdcard as storage in Windows. I do not get a prompt on the G1 asking if I wish to mount it. However, the USB debugging notice still pops up (weird).
....and here I'm stuck once again.

Have you tried actually uninstalling the usb devices in device manager?
I was having a similar problem, I just unistalled all the usb instances in the device manager, and when I rebooted my computer, everything seemed to work fine.

Yes. Multiple times in fact. It can't be the computer if the same issue is happening across two different PC's, with three different USB cables.

At first I thought this was a definite driver issue with xp, I've had similar problems in the past that just won't go away.. xp is a c*nt when it gets a driver stuck in its head that it just doesn't want to part with... but if its persisting across several machines it could well be the phone..
Have you tried adb with the phone in recovery? Boot into recovery and leave it about 30 seconds, then plug in the usb and try to get an adb shell.. this should rule out any rom config issues

PROGRESS! I booted into recovery mode and plugged the G1 into the computer. I got the 'new hardware' prompt and was asked to install the driver. I did so using the one from the SDK. Now I have ADB access, and Windows tried to mount the sdcard but that failed. I'm guessing because there's no way for me to 'ok' that in the recovery console.
So what does this tell us? I'm not sure if I understand what's wrong here.
(Sidenote: Man I'm so tempted to try to install the new Google Maps now....)

It tells us that something's cocked up with the usb support in your rom, but the phone itself is fine. wipe/reflash and you should be good to go.
There is a command you can type to mount the sd for windows when you're in recovery.. just type this in the console:
Code:
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file

Ah....that blows but you do what you gotta. I'll try wiping and report back in case this thread helps anyone else.
Thanks man.

Alright, here's what I did to get working again:
Doing a wipe did NOT resolve the issue. However, updating to v4.2.4 did (remember I was using v4.2.3.1 originally). For clarity, I wiped both before and after the update. And I had to use a sdcard reader to get v4.2.4 onto the phone. I can now ADB and mount the sdcard in Windows without issue. I'm not sure if this was a one off, or possibly a bug in v4.2.3.
Somebody may want to bounce that Cyanogen.
B-man007 and goldenarmZ, the help was much appreciated.

This probably is related to USB tethering Cyan put in his rom.
Also for future reference, if you want to mount your SD card in recovery and you have Cyan 1.3 or greater or RA recovery, you can just type
ums_enable
to mount and
ums_disable
to dismount
saves you from typing that hideously long line lol

ADB logcat setup, etc.

I've Google'd the topic and all the comes up are my own post in the Dev sections where I asked how to create/get a logcat. I can "adb logcat" to a text file, then it shows "waiting for device". Now what's the procedure or setup on the S7 end? I've turned On adb debugging options in the S7. Can/ls this done by USB? The "adb devices" command while plugged into the USB shows nothing. I can connect in Fastboot mode and "adb devices" shows nothing also. Or is more of the Android SDK package needed for this?

Did you install the adb drivers?

Hmm, since I've never used adb commands in the past, maybe not! Are they installed from a EXE file or in a INF fashion?

Download and extract, boot up device, make sure ADB is turned on device, then plug it into the computer, go to My Computer > Manage > Device Management, you should see something pop up with a yellow triangle, install the driver, it will ask you for the location point it to where you extracted the download at.

I may have never really installed ADB drivers, only Fastboot months ago. I feel like a real noobie again! Thinking that I missed the ADB drivers somehow I found that post on my own but take a look at the link. See anything missing??

Yep, that's a link to the page but where's a link to actual file download? I think the third comment on the page mentions this.
If I'm not missing the driver files, I wonder if it might be that I NVflashed CM10 again but didn't allow it to reboot before restoring a TWRP backup?

All the old links to files have been changed since the DNS problems but I found a link to the old files at StreakDroid and the DNS issued is fixed. Download, unzipped, nothing looks any different to what I already have. I still tried the package anyway and it still can't find it's driver. Next I'm going to NVflash CM10 again and let it boot up fully and try it then before restoring my TWRP backup.

I had the same problem the other day when i flashed mine to CM10.
In the end the procedure which worked for me was to unplug the usb cable from my laptop.
Press the small button to hard power off the device.
Boot the device to CM10 again.
Plug the device in to a different USB port.
Then i went in to device manager and found a "dell" device which i right clicked then update drivers and pointed to the folder where i had the adb drivers downloaded to. It found them and installed the devices as an adbx device.
Then i unplugged from usb again and plugged it back in. At this point i ran the logcat command and it started logging.

I tried exactly as you outlined and it still didn't find the needed drivers. Funny as it shows a "B10B" as the unknown device and in the two WIN32 INF files that is a Dell parameter ID.
I may try my TWRP backup to ICS-B4 again before I NVflash again sometime today.
EDIT:
Restored my TWRP ICS-B4 backup but it can't find its drivers either and I tried swapping ports also. One thing though, instead of "B10B" showing up in "Other Devices", I get "Android". An NVflash is next, maybe a TWRP backup breaks ADB??

Ah, what do you mean? ADB isn't going to work? It didn't work after another NVflash and allowed to boot up.

It works just fine.

I'm stumped!

Got it! I had use the pick device option route which led to Android to ADB Interface or ADB Composite Interface. I selected the non-composite option, used those same files again and it installed the proper drivers. I have no idea and don't really care. What a PITA!

[Q] ADB device unauthorized, no root, can't figure it out?

Hey, all. So, I just got a Moto X through AT&T, and I'm looking to root it. It came with the 4.4 update already on it, so I've been trying to follow the appropriate guides from jcase, but I'm running into an error very early on. After I download the ADT bundle and get adb installed and have it up and running, I was at first finding that my device wasn't showing up when I did the command "adb devices". I fixed this by getting the drivers from motorola with their device manager download, but...
Now I'm getting it showing up as an unauthorized device. I have USB debugging enabled, to start. I never received an authorization option when plugging my phone into my computer. I have it set to PTP, not MTP. I've tried toggling the USB debugging off and on multiple times, I've tried the revoke usb debugging authorization multiple times, and I've gone through and deleted the .android folder in C->Users->me. Since I don't have root, I can't go through and delete any sort of folder in my phone involving adb, because I saw that a lot as I've been doing google searches on how to try and fix this before posting here. One of my attempts when deleting .android involved me unplugging my Moto X, deleting the .android folder, running adb kill-server and then adb start-server commands, and rebooting my Moto X before plugging it back in. I still have never received an option to authorize my device.
I am running on Windows 8.1, if that makes any difference. I checked my adb version using the command, and it shows me running adb version 1.0.31. I am rather new to playing around with phones and whatnot, and all of the things I have tried were things that I found through google searches that pointed me to threads here at XDA. I'm willing to try pretty much anything, and I will report back and give further information if needed.
Thanks in advance, all

i also use mine on MTP but im running win7
issue def sounds like you did not allow the connection. have you tried uninstalling the drivers in device manager for the phone restarting and letting windows reinstall them and see if you can get the toast on your phone and accept it.
if that fails i would try competley reinstalling everything or trying another computer, another cable, another port.

I tried PTP because people were saying that they were having better luck with phones in PTP, not MTP. I haven't tried uninstalling the drivers yet, which might be the issue. I tried initially just plugging my phone in before I downloaded the Motorola Device Manager program, so I'll try going through and uninstalling the drivers, and the MDM program, and then reinstalling (when I get home from work).
I'll try another port, and I can also try another computer, so I'll also do that when I get home. Thanks for your response, and I'm really hoping this works :good:

i looked threw a couple threads of people having this issue. this is the order i would troubleshoot myself one other thing i have read is something about unsigned drivers which i dont think you should be having any issues with it but if you ever see a window that states about unsigned drivers reboot your PC while tapping F8 and tap the down arrow till you highlight Disable driver signature required i think is what it says and see if that helps
1. drivers only(make sure you restart after you remove the drivers and make sure you check the box for delete drivers)
2. different port
3. different cable
4. complete reinstall of adb and everything.( also restart after you uninstall everything.)
5. different computer (or use virtual PC if you don't have another PC)
6. re post here lol

So, I've done everything in this list, and also added trying forums.motorola.com/posts/caa12135bd?commentId=725256#725256 out. I'm pretty much out of ideas, because everything I've searched showed pretty much everything you've suggested (and that I tried!) as suggestions
I appreciate the help, but so far (at this rate), I think I might just not have to root. This is super frustrating to me!
EDIT: Actually, I think I finally have something here! After hooking it up to another computer, installing the adk and everything, making sure all the drivers showed up as installed correctly and getting nothing I pretty much resided to giving up. I, for whatever reason, decided to try and run adb. After I did, and ran the start-server command, it gave me the window to accept my laptop's fingerprint! Finally on to follow the rest of the guides!
Thanks!!!
Second edit: So, proceeding to step 3 or so in RockMyMoto, I'm encountering another issue. When running Impactor and trying to run telnet on port 2222 or whatever that is, I get an error that says Signature Bugs unavailable. If I'm understanding correctly, I have to do everything in this guide to downgrade to 4.2.2 or whatever the version with the camera update is, because there isn't a root available for 4.4 without downgrading. But now I'm seeing that I somehow need to downgrade from 4.4 to the previous version in order to get Impactor/telnet working correctly?
I'm super lost now :C

well in order to root 4.4 you have to downgrade to 4.2.2 camera update. if your not sure on how to do it here is a link to a video on how to do it

and if you are having issues with telnet here is a guide that might help

I've hit a few snags, but so far I've figured everything out. I'm working on doing SlapMyMoto right now, which is the last step for root and to be on 4.4, yeah?

everything looks fine bro just finish the last command and then run root checker you should be fine.
i know when i ran mine nothing happened also, after the last command wait a few mins if nothing happens toggle Bluetooth like is says and if it does not restart then restart the phone and you should be good if not we will figure it out
i might downgrade just to run back threw it to see if i can figure it out and maybe put together a package for you that i know works. but i am on the sprint X

Alright, I tossed the adb stuff on my flash drive, and I'm going to see if I can try this at work. I'll report back. You are going above and beyond to help me out, and it's just amazing. After my last community being the League of Legends community, I'm not used to this! :highfive:

Running each of the commands works, until the last one. I get "can't create /sys/kernel/uevent_helper: Permission denied" error message
EDIT: I got it! Yeah!! :highfive: I found someone suggesting to take the phone back to 4.2.2 with this error message and redo SMM, and it stuck! Downloaded root checker, and I got a congrats result! Thanks so much, mate! You've been such a huge help; I was going to give up the first night before I even decided to post here!

I'm glad to hear you got it rooted finally if you have any other questions or need any ideas on what to do please feel free to pm me anytime

i've got one for you... running windows 7, 32 bit. Eset AV-disabled.. have 4.2.2 rooted, but can't get moto-wp-nomo to successfully run...any ideas?

[TOOL] Ouya SuperScript - One click CWM, Root, Xposed & Play Store for Windows

Ouya SuperScript
By TehCrucible
v0.1​
INTRODUCTION
So I originally wrote this batch script to simplify and combine some of the most frequently used tweaks on the forums for my own sake, to speed up my tinkering with the Ouya but I've decided to clean it up and upload it in case anyone else wants to use it.
This script is designed as a "one-click" modification tool for a stock Ouya on the latest firmware. Please read this guide carefully.
I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE OR DATA LOSS. This script is built on the work of many others much smarter than myself and be sure to check the credits.
SO WHAT DOES IT DO?
In a nutshell:
- Install Clockworkmod Recovery
- Root Ouya
- Install Xposed Framework
- Install Google Play Store
WHAT DO I NEED?
- A Windows PC. I have included drivers for both x86 and x64.
- A Micro USB cable.
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
1. Update your Ouya to latest stock firmware
2. Install ADB drivers
3. Run the script
4. Play some games!
There's a more detailed step-by-step in the included README.txt file.
KNOWN ISSUES
- None

Thanks a lot for this. A lo of people have been asking about an automated method to get the play store running on the OUYA...

Great works. I just think of root my ouya....

A quick update:
It's working. I'm on the latest firmaware which is JZO54L-OUYA, kernel version 3.1.10-g780994a. Completely stock, but I had already rooted my OUYA.
Anyway, I enabled the Wireless ADB which will instantly show you the ip and port, installed the drivers for 64bit. Then open CMD and type: adb connect "iport"
Then I ran the superscript and everything went fine.
Hope this helps. I didn't even have to connect with a wire.
But I guess if you wanna install the CWM recovery you should be connected with a wire...

Hello guys!
I can see the Ouya in Device list in Control panel but I can't connect it in SuperScript. Any ideas?

Did you install the drivers right? If yes, then you should open the folder where you extracted your files and right click while holding shift then choose open CMD here. Then write: adb devices
If your device is there, it will give you an output of the IMEI and name of device
From there, you can then tell us what the error is and hopefully we can resolve it...

that happened to me yesterday, but I overcame it by have my computer plugged into the Ouya then reboot the ouya and as soon as the computer recognized it started the script and it worked.

but I have an issue too
So I can run the script everything works except getting the recovery installed. the command prompt acts like it successfully installed the recovery then the Ouya proceeds to reboot into recovery mode. When that happens I get this menu? Nothing happens when I push any buttons on my keyboard. This doesn't look like a custom recovery.

I have tried this many times, did a factory reset and started fresh however even after updating the device driver it doesnt recognize the ouya....

No it doesn't :angel:.
I think I had the recovery installed when I first got the device a long time ago and I used the manual method in this thread, but I'm not sure that it works any more. Also do you have a wired or wireless keyboard? By the way only the Bluetooth keyboard doesn't work. May be if you can install the recovery from that thread, then you can proceed to the next step. One last thing, I don't think you will need the recovery except if you want to install CM or something. Other than that, I never used it before.

Which version of windows are you on? Is it Windows 8 or 8.1? Do you know how to disable driver signature verification?
Also, what does it say when you connect? Just nothing, or not recognized or what? You can try the adb wireless, go into settings/development on the ouya and activate it. Then open CMD from the extracted folder and type adb connect "ip : port" then check by typing "adb devices". Let us know what happens after that.

I have tried both from my windows 7 computer and 8.1 laptop. It showed up just as you said "missing driver", sent it to the drivers part of SS to get the driver, it said it installed but when i run the SS and hit option "1" it comes up blank...

I can see from your posts that you tried everything and I'm so sorry that I'm just a user and not a developer or something. May be you can try sideloading terminal and try CWM manually (if you haven't already) or sideload ROM Toolbox and try the flash recovery option.
That's all I got. But if I were you, I won't bother about the CWM at all. It's useless.
As for the Play store, try the mod that I attached in my reply and let me know if this one works for you...

Unfortunately the link is not working. Is it possible to update it, please?

What I do if my micro usb is broken :/. I only have wireless adb

.. nice .. now my ouya will run again .. thanks

I already tried everything but I can't make this work... I installed every single drive in every single way.
The best screenshot of the whole situation is on attachment. SuperScript simply doesn't recognize OUYA with default drivers, neither provided drivers (or any of its variation like "composite adb" or something like that. The "List of devices attached" always return empty, even when provided drivers installed (signature deactivated and everything else). As readme says, when SuperScript doesn't recognize, it returns "error: device not found" every time that I try something...
This SuperScript seems great to start things on my my untouched and default OUYA... but I'm honestly out of options.

Problem solved. It is Windows Drivers issue. S-Config did a great job explaining how you should do this HERE. I hope it helps people who got stuck. SuperScript did work, I did installed CWM but I was not able to navigate (neither thru bluetooth usb full keyboard). I'm going to try to figure out what I'm missing later. As I can see, S-Config's website is fully updated... I do highly recommend read there who is going to do anything with ouya.

ADB

hi
im trying to use ADB to delete some bloatware off of my phone, but im having troubles doing so because it cannot find my device. ive tried updating the drivers for it through Device Manager but the phone is not listed there. however, it shows up in My Computer and i am able to transfer files onto it.
are there any other solutions or possible fix for this?
thanks.

I'm new here so I can't post links. I was having the same problem with the Adb version I was using with my old phone (mostly getting "device offline" errors).
Google "15 seconds Adb". Its an up-to-date installer that weights almost nothing and includes all the necesary drivers.
Deleted Whats New with no problem.

Do you have USB debugging enabled?

yes i do
my computer is able to recognize my nexus 5 so idk whats going on

Have you installed the three things that come with the installer? (Adb+fastboot+drivers)?
Also: have you installed the propietary Sony software for Xperia interaction (can't remember the name, probably Xperia Connect or something like that) ? Maybe that has some drivers that you need.
I asume you also have installed the Google USB drivers installed (use 32 bit version, NOT 64).
I'm just naming all these because I had all of them already installed before I downloaded 15 seconds adb, so maybe they interact somehow and that's why it works for me.
Also make sure you are using latest version of everything.
Edit: did you get on your phone the debugging alert when you connected it?
Edit 2: please post what commands you enter into the cmd.
