[Q] Fixing ADB? - General Questions and Answers

Alright guys I've looked everywhere and can't figure out a fix for this. I have a Macbook running 10.7 Lion, and an HTC Rezound. A couple weeks ago, my ADB was working flawlessly. Now, however, it doesn't seem to recognize my devices. I have used ADB devices on both my Temp Rooted HTC Rezound, and my S-Off HTC Incredible. It shows the list of devices attached, but there are no devices listed. I have tried reinstalling the SDK, and I do have USB Debugging mode on. If there is any fix, it would be great to know so that I could have an easier time building my roms.
Thanks

New HTC Sync version (with Win7 support!)

This is from the international HTC site. Version 2.0.18 adds Windows 7 support and it works great with my Sprint Hero. While I don't sync contacts, at least my phone is recognized every time I plug it in.

I got 2.0.18 or whatever it is to work. Just have to follow the thread in this forum to do so.

I don't know what the issue is with mine, but no matter what I do, or what walkthrough I do I can't get my phone to sync. I have tried different version of HTC Syn, used different walkthroughs, and yet nothing works.
Any ideas?
I had problems too until I swapped out my USB cord. A different cord allowed me to connect again.
2.0.33 is the latest on HTC's site for the Sprint Hero.

I have tried 3 different usb cords and 3 different usb ports and still can't get it to work for some reason. Everytime I try I get this:
Next step
Unable to find HTC Sync on your PC.
Please make sure that HTC Sync is installed and opened on your computer.
You can download it from http://www.htc.com/www/support.aspx.

Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions?

[Q] Impressed with my new Infuse 4G but can't get USB connection to work

After plugging away for a few hours now, I am still unable to get my Windows 7 PC to recognize the Infuse 4G as a USB device. Upon plugging in the cable, I continue to get "USB device not recognized". I have installed the latest KIES package + drivers, tried a drivers-only install package from ATT, tried mini-KIES, tried all the USB ports and tried the whole thing over again on another Win7 PC. On the phone, I have tried the USB settings at Mass Storage, Media Player and Samsung EZUpdate and under Applications/Development, I have turned on and off USB debugging. The only thing I have not tried is another USB to mini cable, as I don't readily have one available (using the one that came with the phone).
The Infuse is a great smartphone, and I hope to make it a little smarter by sync'ing up to my PC. Any suggestions are appreciated. Jonathan
They may have included a charging only cable now. Is it telling you it is failing the install?
EDIT: Just read it said not recognizing. Try the Captivate Drivers. It's been a while but I think that's what I had to do.

Uninstall kies completely! There is some problem with kies in windows 7 64 bit, search within this forum for the USB driver only.
I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.

Same, but i like disabled usb debugging and I think that did the trick.
I'm using Kies on 64bit windows 7 and it works fine.
You can try a different computer? Different USB port? I'm willing to bet the problem is not the phone at all.

Im on W7 64 bit running Kies with no problem, I don't think that the issue..
Problem persists... arrgh
Good tips, thank you, tried most of them, no go.
Using my cleanest, most reliable Dell, I uninstalled all of the KIES software, plus all of the Samsung drivers listed, plus the Samsung EZUpdate software. Rebooted, then installed only the drivers downloaded directly from Samsung (SGH-i997_Infuse4G_USB_Drivers_5_2_0_2.zip). Tried all the USB ports on the Dell, same issue - "USB device not recognized".
Just for fun, I then installed the new Samsung Galaxy 64bit drivers. Same issue.
As I am seeing exactly the same issue on two different PCs with no known USB port issues, I am beginning to suspect the cable that came with the phone might be the problem. Or is that too simplistic? Jonathan
The drivers are on the Samsung website. That would be the first logical place to look anyhow.
Also could be a bad cable but I think win 7 64 bit has issues with Samsung devices. Try to manually install the drivers and try a different cable.
At this point it is most likely the cable with a small chance of the phone itself being the issue. Try a different cable next, but if you have a linux live CD (Ubuntu, whatever you have) start a computer off of that, it won't require any drivers, and if it still isn't recognized that will prove you aren't having driver issues

I am currently running Windows 7 64-bit at home using the drivers you included above. I'm not having any issues connecting with my PC, so I would guess it's not drivers. The fact that it's happening with more than one computer would suggest that it's either your phone or your cable, and not the PC. I would start by shutting down your phone and pulling the battery. Let it drain for a few seconds, and then power it up with the battery back in. Then attempt a connection to your PC. It couldn't hurt to reboot your PC at the same time. Good luck!
ok so 1: sorry for reviving a semi-dead thread
2: first post so be easy on me?
but i might have a solution to the usb problem(kinda sorta) although its mainly for file management(like non os type.. unless u got a rooted phone)
but try installing "FTPDroid" from the market its a good free app, what you can do then is just get "FileZilla" (also free) on your computer.
just go to settigns of ftpdroid then add a user account ( so u can edit directorys and move/deleat files, instead of jsut transfers from computer) and sign on to the ftp server from your computer useing the account settings. and your good to go ^^.
but if u are needing the usb for say changing the os or rooting... this wont really work i dont think unless u can figureout how to do that threw other means.. then u can use the ftp to change os files(maby?)
hope i helped. atleast just a little bit.

[Q] USB drivers ?

Hi,
At home, on a Win7 64, I downloaded the T-Mobile drivers for the SGS2 and installed them. If I connect my Captivate it works fine, but when I connect my Skyrocket it says "not recognized".
At work I installed the same drivers on a Win7 32 bits and it works fine.
Any idea or links for a win 64 drivers?
Thanks
I had the same issue and after much searching, the end result was for me to install the latest Samsung Kies software. In the "%programfiles(x86)%\Samsung\USB Drivers folder" you can update device manager to recognize your phone.
I would post that directory, but it is >40MB. Everything worked after I did this.

are you talking about this version of kies http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/mobilesoftwaremanual/mobilesoftwaremanual.do?page=MOBILE.SOFTWARE.MANUAL
That build appears to be newer than the one I used. I used build 2.0.3.11085_152_4
I got this from the i777 (SG2) since the download was not available for the i727
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/at-t/SGH-I777ZKAATT
I would assume that the version you posted would also work

unfortunately it didn't work. I did multiple "re-install drivers" with Kies phone connected and not connected but same problem. I guess I will have to edit the registry to force the right driver.
Thanks for your help
I know this sounds odd but I've had this issue and it wasn't a driver issue - it was the USB port itself. Do you have another one you can try by chance? If you're using one on the front of a desktop, is there one in the back that you can try instead?

Thanks for the idea, unfortunately yes, I tried that too yesterday without luck.
But thanks for your help
I had the drivers previously installed for the sgs2 and got the skyrocket which workd no problem on a win 7 64 bit machine. Id suggest uninstall your drivers reboot reinstall shutdown after install reboot. If still no dice use a different usb cable preferably one from another android device that is shorter and thicker. Like the moto ones. The one that comes with the droid pro and the moto atrix is short and very thick . Or better yet radio shack sells gold.tippd usb cables very high quality ibelieve they are about 30 bones

I tried to uninstall and reinstall my drivers but same problem. It's really wierd because if I plug my captivate it is recognized right away, but if , with the same cable, I plug the Skyrocket then my Sky is not recognized.
I will try with a another cable tonight and let you know. Thanks for your help
Yes let me know. That is weird. Also maby your usb ports are underpowerd . Turn off power management and try the usb port thats connected to the hub. Although it ahould.work if the other phone did. Mabye a problem with the usb port on your phone. My samsung epic i had was very picky i tried like 6 different cables and finally bought a gold tipd one from radio shack and it worked and did u folow thia thread and use the drivers in it http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1340710

Yes, for the driver I did everything right
I connected my phone to two computers at my work without problem, I'm leaning forward a cable issue. Maybe the Skyrocket needs more power than my Captivate and that's why it is not recognized?
I will try another cable tonight
Thanks
Worth a try go to radio ahack get the gold tipd usb data transfer cable. Always worked for me when other cables didnt. Then try it
Thank you so much all for your help.
Finally it was the cable. Even if I used the same cable I used with my captivate, my skyrocket didn't want to be recognized.
I changed the cable and Tada..... It worked.
My guess is that the skyrocket need more power than the Captivate.
Anyway, thanks again for your help
good deal glad that worked out for you

PC will not recognize S3 nor SDMicro card ...

Brand new phone, nothing in software or firmware tinkered with. I correctly cable it to my PC and nothing.
It does charge, but the 32gb Sandisk Class 10 SDmicro is not recognized whatsoever. I want to transfer some save files so I can "carry on" with my phone activities after burying my beloved ThunderBolt.
Ideas?

Samsung driver- http://tinyw.in/Fdoz
Give that a shot and it should get you what you want.
Correct me if I'm ignorant but don't all phones install the drivers when you connect it to your PC? I have always noticed the icon in the bottom right corner that says "installing device software". Never really had any issues either.

PC doesn't recognise drivers

A month now ive got this phone and very impressed that ill probably use it as my primary phone, however ive tried on 2 pc's and a laptop and after downloading the necessary drivers and trying to unlock the bootoader it just wont recognise that my phone is connected, ive followed instructions previously given by another user, why wont those pc's or the laptop i tried recognise the drivers?
Even to root the phone so i can get rid of the ads would be something but you probably need to unlock bootloader before you do that, any suggestions?
Are the OPO is fuctioning or it's in hard brick? Did you try on OS8 or OS7?
I recommend you to download the official Android SDK. It rarely causes any issues unlike allot of other driver packs.

of course it is mate i only have it 3/4 weeks it's perfect except Windows xp wont recognise the drivers, funnily enough my chromebook recognises the opo when i plug it in but it's far too difficult and time consuming to try doing commands on a chromebook.

i think ill actually do that next time im in an internet cafe as these driver packs dont seem to be worth a f**k to be honest and the full sdk might work.
ill report back after i try if i get the time in the next week.
