USB Drivers are let your PC communicate with your device.
If you are executing some ADB Commands, you will need USB Drivers installed which will let the ADB server on your PC communicate with the ADB client on your device. If there are no USB Drivers installed on your PC, you will not be able to perform activities on your device via the PC.
First of All I would recommend you to install Universal ADB Driver Installer.The Universal ADB Driver installer detects your phone and installs the ADB drivers for it.This tool developed by drsmart is your solution to the “device not found” error you might get on executing ADB commands.

MORE DEVICES WILL BE UPDATED
Thanks for the info. I tried the univ adb driver installer but it showed I already had the right driver installed. Windows explorer can see my phone but other apps like HTC Sync or myphoneexplorer can't. This only happened after I rooted & installed a new rom. Maybe the rom is faulty...

Rooted
I was running CM 10.2 with latest nightly, I think 20131208 and decided to update to CM11 via my Cyanogenmod updater but before I did I had read somewhere I should change from CWM recovery to TWRP so I downloaded Goomanager and updated to the TWRP version for my phone then went for the KitKat update and thats when the trouble began.
I am now stuck in a boot loop even if I try to boot into TWRP all I get is the TWRP boot logo then straight into boot loop again. I am almost positive I did a factory wipe as well as cache/dalvik.
Not being able to use TWRP to get into recovery I thought I would just use Odin but I can't get any of my laptops to recognize the phones USB, I just get the windows usb driver error and have tried to install the drivers manually via device manager using my samsung 7 chronos with windows 8.1 and my acer with windows 7. I updated drivers using Samsung Kies and from the website, no luck.
I also ventured into an area that I have no expertise in but I guess thats how we learn so I downloaded the Android SDK thinking I could use it to download and install the google USB drivers that way, but I can't get out of boot loop to make sure USB debugging is checked. The only thing I can access is the stock download mode which would be great if I could use the USB connection.
What am I missing? Any suggestions?
USB Not Recognized Error
I noticed that my phone suddenly stopped being recognized on both my Windows 7 and Win8 laptops. I have been trying to fix it with the drivers but to no avail. However, I plugged my phone in with a different USB cord and voila it was recognized and working. Maybe this could possibly be a simple fix.
My computer stopped recognizing my Skyrocket
Hi Everyone,
I also am having trouble with my win 7 computer recognizing my Skyrocket suddenly. I have been using several KitKat roms and they have been working just fine, except for some reported bugs that the CM devs are working on. I even was able to connect to the computer and explore both my internal and external drives. Then suddenly that stopped and the computer gave me a need to get drivers warning. I've tried to download drivers from Samsung and the computer says they are already installed. I also tried the universal driver download and got the same message. Any help would be appreciated. Like the others on this forum, I wouldn't be able to odin if I got in trouble.
Thanks for your concideration,
drewfs7270
I switched to a different rom and now it's working again !

Also, any mobile manufacturer website has guides or direct downloads for drivers. Otherwise uni drivers suffice.....

mtk preloader driver unable to install/unplugged appears
mt65xx unplugged when I try installing my device, I tried uninstalling all preloader vcom drivers in my laptop then restart and when I try to connect my device mtk mt65xx preloader just pops up in device manager then suddenly disappears and unknown device shows instead. I also tried manually update driver for unknown device then select the folder where my mtk driver is saved still unsuccessful? I've also searched and tried many other ways out there still no luck. Can anybody give me a solution? By the way i'm using windows 7 x64.

soft brick
I face bad experienced, the tablet can not boot ( after install TWRP ) but enable to enter the fastboot mode and can be detected by the computer as android adb interface but adb can't communicated with the tablet. (list of devices atached)
I do have a backup file ( I make it before soft brick, I make backup using dd command, because I don't have cwm/twrp recovery ).... but how to flash it ? Tablet chipset is wonder media 8980 OS android 4.2.2
I can not flash it by adb/fastboot.
Maybe someone here can give me a little guide for how to....
I really appreciate for your kindness
Hey, I made an expirience, which might help other users as well.
I have a Sony device (Z1C) and use Windows 10, maybe this will help for other brands and for other Windows 10 users.
I installed drivers for my device and was able to use adb. When I put the phone into fastboot mode, it was not recognized anymore. I found out, Sony has a seperate (updated, maybe?) driver for fastboot mode. When I tried to install this, the driver was not signed and Windows refused to install it. However, you can enter the UEFI (successor of BIOS) and enable installation of unsigned drivers (at own risk). Then I was able to install the fastboot driver and controll my phone in fastboot mode as well as in adb mode.
In conclusion: You might think you installed drivers, because you did, but maybe you did not.
Even on LineageOS page, many people fail to mention that, you DON'T and SHOULDN'T install any generic or universal ADB driver if you have Samsung device. As you can just install Samsung USB Drivers officially from Samsung site. Samsung USB Drivers already contain ABD interface driver just fine so Universal ADB driver is redundant for Samsung phones.
Ok, I can't manage to get my SV work with my PC.
This problem persists only in fastboot mode.
Yellow triangle, unknown device as always. (In device manager it shows up as My HTC)
What i tried until this:
-3 different USB port (1 of them is 2.0)
-4 different drivers (including official HTC Win8 x64 drivers, Win7 x64 drivers by old.splatterhand, and 2 other drivers from random sites)
-Retail USB Cable and a random noname pink colored USB cable
-USB HUB
-HTC Sync and HTC Sync Manager installed
-Java installed
-Google SDK installed
-drivers and updates in android SDK installed
-of course I turned driver signature enforcement and antivirus off.
It's not the first case when i have this problem. I had some Xperia phones before SV, none of them was able to connect to my PC. Probably because of drivers. Or because of my PC? My previous PC with Win7 x64 worked like charm, but that was a Desktop PC.
Thanks in advance.
If you have already tried the drivers i provide, i can't give you others, sorry.
But if this problem happened, the first time after the update to 4.2.2, you can try to downgrade your hboot (when you are S-off!) and see if it could be solved by that.

Report back, if you had success.
Hi,
I'm using this CM 11 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2922500 but I have strange problem with my laptop. It periodically looses driver information for my device. I don't know how but when I re-installed my OS Windows 7 (32bit) it found the proper driver. Later I've got a message that my USB device is not recognized and can't connect to my device. Does anyone else have the same problem and do you know a fix? I've tried a lot and different driver versions but without success. Logcat doesn't show anything last time but I will try later or when I loose drivers again (it seems I cannot use USB again).
BTW I don't have this problem with my desktop PC which has always connected USB cable to it. Also everything works fine with CM 10.1, MIUI or Sense ROMs but they are based on lower Android versions.
P.S. I was trying to connect with another USB cable. I've found my cable that I used to install drivers and USB is working again. This is really strange behaviour
Logcat from device terminal
Logcat when plug in or out my USB connector is attached.

Hello. If you're on Windows 10 like me, you're probably having an issue unlocking your bootloader because the device is undetected in fastboot mode.
I downloaded LG drivers, Google drivers, etc and nothing worked. I finally resolved the issue by
1. Uninstalling all Lg driver software I downloaded
2. Installing the LG PC SUITE software (*This should do it*)
3. Ran PC suite & hit "connect" - it told me my LG USB DRIVER was missing and offered to install it for me from within itself. I hit the button to install said driver.
I ran the installation twice and suddenly my laptop made a sound indicating my device was recognized. (I also watched my Device Manager refresh with the correct devices). Also, LG PC SUITE has adb built into it so the driver was certainly there.
After this, I ran fastboot devices and mine was good to go!
I hope this helps!
Hi,
i recently updated my L09C432 from B398 to B405 and it refuses to connect to PC with USB.
When i connect it says in tray that driver instaltion failed and in device manager it shouws "Reinstall the drivers for this device. (Code 18)"
I tried to reinstall Hisuite to reinstall drivers but no change, it is same on PC and also on my notebook, so i think it is actualy not related to drivers.
Than i tried to flash recovery and update back to B398 and it was working again, but after update to B405 it is not working again.
Did it happen to anybody? Any solutions, sugestions or ideas?
Thank you
Same problem here
Works fine on linux for me
WIN 10 - L09C432B405 works fine
I tried it on w8.1 and w7, but i think it is not related to driver itself, because i reinstal it several times on two computers. It is highly unlikely that it will corrupt same way on two PC at same time.
