ADB Access Win x64 (CM10) - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Since I can't respond to threads in Developer and I think that this might belong here to answer some folks questions. I have read that a lot of people are having issues with ADB access under Windows x64 using the latest CM10 by h8rift. I found a solution that worked for me and I wish to share it with everyone in case it will work for them. A few critiria:
- Your device is connected via USB cable to your computer
- Your device is listed as "HTC MTP Device" in Windows Device Manager
- When you open a CMD prompt under your Android Directory and type "adb devices", nothing is listed
This is because you have the wrong device drivers installed on your system and it needs to be corrected. This is how I accomplished it.
1. Uninstall the driver completely from your system. This has to be done under the device properties. Under "Action", select "Scan for New Hardware Changes". Your system will see the new device and identify it under "Other Devices" as "One". If Windows tries to install the wrong drivers, you will have to restart all over until the HTC MTP Device driver is completely removed from your system.
2. Install HTC Sync from their website. Once installed, it has to update to the latest version. This is needed to install all additional drivers for SD Card access.
3. HTC One X Drivers will be listed under C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files (default install location).
4. For ADB access, you will need the drivers located here; download appropriate drivers for your Windows flavor. These are the ADB drivers.
5. Download the zip, and extract. Remember the location of the files. Go into Device Manger, find "One" under "Other Devices" and Update Driver Software. Point to the new directory you made and install. The One X will now be listed in Device Manager as "My HTC" under "Android USB Devices"
6. To verify ADB, open a CMD prompt, point to Android directory and type in "adb devices". Your beautiful HTC One X should be listed.
I am not the maintainer of any of these webpages nor can I guarantee that these pages will exist to the end of time. Those of you wishing to have ADB access under Windows for CM10, this worked well for me. I gathered up this information just by doing a quick search in Google and through the forums.
Thank you to h8rift for CM10 and all the hard work he puts into it.

Will try this when I get home! Thanks.

This worked perfectly for me. Thanks man!

HTC One X, CM10-Evita JellyBean, Win7-x64

Not working for me, evertime I scan for hardware changes it tried to install HTC MTP DEVICE, and when I try to update that driver with the new ADB driver, it says it's already installed. Then when I uninstall that driver, I don't see the One devices anywhere, until I scan for hardware changes again, which then repeats the above. What am I doing wrong?

I think I found a fix for that. Let me restart my computer and verify
edit: nope.. nothing so far. mine doesn't even show HTC MTP DEVICE anymore >.>

same i see one when i look for new hardware but it always just auto sets to mtp.

Delete old drivers
The reason for this is that you cannot completely delete existing drivers using device manager. They still exist in the driver store, and are loaded as soon as you scan for hardware changes.
There might be a better way to do this, but here's how I did it:
- uninstall driver in device manager. Don't scan for hardware changes.
- Run a CMD prompt as administrator (right click "Run as Administrator")
- navigate to C:/Windows/system32 which is the location of the driver store
- type pnputil.exe /e
- this will list the drivers that exist in the driver store. They are denoted as oem##.inf
- find the driver that has "HTC Corporation" in the description. Write down the oem##.inf number (ex. oem81.inf)
- type pnputil.exe /d oem##.inf (where ## corresponds to the number of the HTC driver).
This will remove the old driver from the driver store. Now when you scan for hardware changes, it should fail to find a driver and prompt you for a location.
NOTE: I actually had several HTC drivers in the driver store. Its because I've had a few HTC devices over the years. I deleted them all. This may break HTC Sync, I dunno. I don't use it.

Fixed. See post below

For anyone having problems. I finally got it working.
THIS SHOULD BE NO LONGER NEEDED. ROHAN'S NEW AOKP VERSION 2 SHOULD WORK WITH STOCK DRIVERS. IM ASSUMING THIS WILL BE MERGED WITH ANY OTHER AOSP ROMS. IF YOU STILL NEED THIS INFORMATION HOWEVER, I WILL LEAVE IT UP.
1. Uninstall HTC Sync and any HTC sync drivers listed in your "Add/Remove Programs"
2. Delete EVERY driver pertaining to HTC when you run CMD as admin and type "pnputil -e" and then type "pnputil -d oem##.inf" (such as oem13.inf ONLY IF it says HTC or HTC Corporation)
3. Download Deview - 32 bit OR 64 bit, and run as administrator and uninstall ALL disconnected drivers (it won't matter if you uninstall the wrong thing, because it will just reinstall again when you plug in the hardware. make sure your phone IS NOT plugged in)
4. Download ADB drivers 32 bit OR 64 bit. (windows)
**Restart Computer**? (I did just to be safe)
5. Plug in your phone. Go into device manager, and find your device. It should be listed as "One" with a yellow question mark.
6. Right click and update driver software
7. find your USB drivers you downloaded and choose to install those.
your device should now be listed under "Android USB Devices" as "My HTC"
When I did this, my phone skipped being labelled as "HTC MTP Device" all together
If it is not detected in ADB after installing drivers...
1. UNPLUG PHONE
2. Run USBDeview as administrator
3. Uninstall any unplugged devices
4. Restart computer
5. Plug in phone

What exactly are you trying to do? Did you install HTC Sync drivers? This is for using ADB on the old CM10/AOKP, not for rooting your phone

device is already rooted, I need to get adb working because I can't get my cid from fastboot command.

Boot your phone into fastboot from your bootloader
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda-developers app

i'm in fastboot and type adb shell getprop ro.cid, message says error: device not found. fastboot getvar cid returns CID: none

Found a great way that fixed it for me on Windows 8:
use this tool: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html to remove all instances of anything that has to do with HTC. Then, follow steps above to scan for new devices, and set the driver accordingly (with USB debugging on on the phone). It should register as "My HTC" and then you will be able to see the device in "adb devices" list.

you can't use adb from fastboot. you use fastboot.exe e.g.
fastboot oem getvar cid
no adb needed.

Guys can u pls help me? I've done the above procedure for installing the drivers on my htc explorer, it all worked, in the device manager panel i can see My htc when i'm in fastboot, and i can see Android bootloader Interface when i'm in the bootloader, but nevertheless I can't run adb shell because it doesn't find the device, and when I run adb device it gives me an embty list, i must use adb in order to attemp to recover the nand that it's probably burned.

Found Answer To Windows XP 32 Bit Driver install Error

Hi Guys!!!
Recently I had A problem Installing Windows 32 bit Driver For Android So i searched On the web for this error & Found that there were many people with this error...
Here Is the info about that Error In My Last Post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493604
WINDOWS XP x86 / 32-Bit Only
The error was so:
When we download the android_usb_windows.zip then extract it and then try to install it via device manager all goes right it detects the driver but at the last step where it asks for androidusb.sys file and when given the path it waits some time and says Fatal Error...
SO I tried To Go deep in the system32 folder There Go into Drivers Folder Now Here You begin some stuff:
1. Go in "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers" Folder there Find These files and cut them and paste in some folder where its safe:
androidusb.sys
usbccgp.sys
usbstor.sys
wdf01000.sys !!!! (Be Careful Deleting this File, I Say First try Without Deleting this file !)
2. Now Go to device manager "Right-click My Computer -> Manager -> Device Manager"
3. Click On ADB Interference Or something like that U ll Get a sub-category Right-click on it Click Uninstall -> OK
Do The Same For the Following :
USB Composite Device
USB Mass Storage Device
4. Get The Drivers From Here If U already Don't Have: http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk-windows-1.0_r2.zip
OR
Get The Haykuro's Updated USB Drivers from here : http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/usb_driver_updated.zip
5. Now Try To Install The Driver Again By Going to "Right-click My Computer -> Manager -> Device Manager -> Action -> Scan for Hardware Changes" Then You will Get a pop-up saying Found New Hardware...
6. Install the drivers As Usual..... It Will install The Drivers Succesfully....
You Are Done.....
All I can say is THANK YOU.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
This post deserves a sticky..
you are great
LOL
-- well after this I couldn't use FASTBOOT anymore hahahahaha
well, I worked around that, had to reinstall drivers for Haykuro's SPL too. So now both ADB and FASTBOOT work.
Thanks helped with my Win NT at work. lol
lol i have no idea if this was the cause... after this, I was no longer able to use my laptops keyboard, mice, video card drivers were corrupted along with network drivers, processor bus communications driver and a whole lot more. I had to perform a full system recovery so... yay.. lost everything, but im working on it.
---EDIT, I performed this on my fully recovered system again, and had the same results after it rebooted. I was able to conlude that it was caused by the system file with the wdf in it. Luckily, I hadn't deleted it and simply moved it into the recylcing bin and was able to recover from it. This may just be specific to my system, but I'm not sure. Just a warning to back everything up.

So Is that you are sayin is we do not need to remove the wdf file, did the drivers work without removing & again installing that wdf file?
or u did not put the new file again before rebooting ?
I am not really sure. It can possibly just be my computer. Once removing all the drivers you listed, the ADB then successfully worked, and continued to work as long as the computer was not rebooted. Once rebooted, I drivers for many pieces of hardware became corrupt and unreadable. By simply replacing the wdf driver and rebooting, it fixed the issue. So, I really am not sure. My computer... is strange. I believe it likely could just be my computer thats all.
next time if u get such problem just try solving without removing the wdf file & post what happens...
& plz post the consequences....thanks
The key points are:
To choose ADB interface\HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface to install

thanks for your tutorial.
I followed as you say, but I can't find my phone in cmd mode in my computer.
I succeed to install driver also it's shown in device manager as like this

I'v tried whatever I can do..reinstall driver, adb, swipe my phone..
what shall I do now?
adb problem
Hi,
Same problem here, tried everything but CMD just is not showing any device...
I found the solution: make sure that debugging mode is checked in your G1 settings because if not ADB will not work.

I followed this completely, I have the phone installed correctly now, not a mass storage device, device manager reads:
ADB Interface > HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface
However, I have usb debugging enabled, and still get the same *error: device not found*
Took a decent amount of time to get done right too, thanks to "trustedinstaller" being the only "user" that can delete drivers on my laptop..yay for changing ownerships! You'd think administrator would suffice, but nay.
Anywho..wtf am I missing here?
edit: win 7 x64, however the same rules for this how-to should still apply, as all the drivers and install options/processes are identical
ive found that trying to use the adb driver the driver gave me error code 10 (within the device manager)
ive got rc win7 64 bit
what i used to get rid of this problem is the program called USBdeview ( google for it)
and uninstalled everything related to htc/android
after connecting the phone the correct driver installed and i could use the adb device
I didn't want to make another topic on this, but I have a problem. Whenever I uninstall the drivers from device manager, then search for new devices, it installs the drivers automatically. I have mass storage and adb dream interface, but no devices are found when I execute the adb command. I cleaned out what I could from the system32 and /drivers folder. Any clues? Just to add, it did work about a week ago, didn't need to use it, now it doesn't work.
Edit: Oops, I forgot the check the uninstall driver box. I have the drivers, they install correctly, but I still can't use adb.
PS: vista x64, installing from the amd64 subfolder.

[Solution]Windows 8 - ADB/fastboot driver problem solved!!

Hello!!​
First off; This is copied, from my thread, in the Galaxy Nexus forum... Sorry, if you find the words "Galaxy" or "Samsung". But, this works for pretty much every phone, (except, for the USB drivers)...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, give it a go...
I haven't found another tutorial, like this at all... So, if you find something like this it's copied from me
Now, on to the actually interesting stuff ^^
I have found a solution, to the following problem;
After installing Windows 8, you cannot install fastboot drivers, but it recognizes the ADB drivers...
Solution:
Note: If you feel more comfortable using the Windows Power Shell, you can use that as well, it is, after all, only the Windows shell
Open the dev-manager, by typing following, in a command prompt window, or the run dialog. Whichever you prefer... :
Code:
[B][COLOR="Cyan"]devmgmt.msc[/COLOR][/B]
Now, the device manager, should pop up.
Install ADB drivers, (If you do not have them present, download them here
To prevent confusion: When I say install, it can mean unpack, or install... Quick tip: An installer does nothing, apart from unpacking files, to allocated space, on your computer
Download USB drivers, from here. (Link fixed. Again (-_-") ) (Note: These are the Sammy OEM drivers.)
Should you NOT have drivers installed:
Install the USB drivers, and download ADB/fastboot drivers.
Installation of ADB/fastboot drivers:
Open the device manager, and look for "Samsung Mobile Device", or "Unidentified Device". You can make your search easier, by unplugging the phone, whilst in device manager, then plug it back in, and see what's changed...
Once you have found your phone, Perform a right-click, on the device. Select : "Update device drivers", once the dialog has popped up, choose "Browse my computer" and goto your desktop, where you have installed the files to.
Open just the "drivers" folder, nothing else...
Select OK, then wait for installation to finish.
Once that has been done, you need to reboot your device, into bootloader mode; do this by typing
Code:
path=%userprofile%\Desktop\ADB\
adb reboot-bootloader
into the command prompt (download & install this, if you want to do it the cmd-way...)
Or, turn off your phone, and reboot i it manually into bootloader-mode, by pressing
Code:
VOL UP +DWM & PWR
together, untill phone vibrates...
Once the phone is in bootloader, go back to the device manager, and look for a device named "android 1.0". Perform a right-click on this and select "Update device drivers". Again, selct "Browse my computer", but, instead of clicking on "Browse" and selecting the folder, again, select "Let me pick from a list of drivers." Once the menu has popped up, select "Samsung Android ADB interface". Click OK, and wait for the drivers to install . Then, you're done. You have then successfully installed the ADB + fastboot drivers correctly, to test this, open a cmd window, and type following:
Code:
path=%userprofile%\Desktop\ADB\
fastboot devices
If your device shows up, then you have done it!!
Now type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
adb wait-for-device
adb kill-server
Note: while the phone is booting (If you typed "adb wait-for-device") A cursor will blink, wait for that, to stop blinking, then type the next command
I hope you learned, from this tutorial!! Check out Beatsleigher & M4gkman's Universal Android Toolkit, if you have enough time
Should you have problems, in recovery, open your dev. manager, and look for following device:
Code:
Full
Select, right-click. Update driver (blah, blah, witter, droan)
Browse my computer -> Let me pick -> Samsung ADB -> Done. You have enabled the ADB drivers, on your Android Device!!!!

Ok, here is some news, for you!
Well, according to some people, who have used this tutorial, Microsoft has done something new to their device driver signing.
I did not have note of this, as I was using Ubuntu most of the time and the laptop I was using broke, several weeks ago (It's gonna take me ages to get a new one, with which I can finally finish my ROM cooking..)
And Senior Member "purpler" has posted a link, which teaches you to turn device driver signing off, in the new bootloader, which Windows 8 is using/will be using, so; let's give him loads of thanks, for this!
here is his answer:

Hey guys, I'm going to be creating a new tool or two, which will allow you to install ADB and Fastboot directly to the system root and which will install the Google drivers to your C:\ drive.
These tools will be available for a small donation, and they will save you a lot of work, i.e. you will never have to type in "path=<Whereever the ADB files are>" but you can just debug on
If you want to have the program, hit the "Donate to Me" button on the left of this post and donate a small amount. Then in the donation, write me a message, saying what it's for and give me your XDA username and I'll PM you the download link.

You'll have to wait a moment, the system has to look for all the needed files, in the exe, and then needs to try to execute. If it then doesn't work, I'll upload an updated version, but as this seems to be working pretty much fine, I'll hesitate, not that the updated verison causes problems.
Anyways, I was running Win8 64x and it worked fine, just let the computer do it's work and it will work sooner or later, if nothing happens, even after waiting for 5-10 minutes, then try running it with administrative rights (Run as administrator).. Let me know if it works!
Doesn't work for me because I cant even see my S3 in the device manager.

Then try a different computer Doesn't mean that your S III is kaputt, does it?
If it then doesn't work, you've probably got dirt in the socket, or something else, like that.
And if you don't have dirt in the socket, then I don't know, whats wrong, but it'll definitely go over warranty

That's what the link in the first post is for. And you still need to follow the steps in the tutorial, otherwise it won't work properly.
I know the tutorial looks complex, but it isn't. You just need to read properly

Hello!!​
First off; This is copied, from my thread, in the Galaxy Nexus forum... Sorry, if you find the words "Galaxy" or "Samsung". But, this works for pretty much every phone, (except, for the USB drivers)...
So, give it a go...
I haven't found another tutorial, like this at all... So, if you find something like this it's copied from me
Now, on to the actually interesting stuff ^^
I have found a solution, to the following problem;
After installing Windows 8, you cannot install fastboot drivers, but it recognizes the ADB drivers...
Solution:
Note: If you feel more comfortable using the Windows Power Shell, you can use that aswell, it is, afterall, only the Windows shell
Open the dev-manager, by typing following, in a command prompt window, or the run dialog. Whichever you prefer... :
Code:
[B][COLOR="Cyan"]devmgmt.msc[/COLOR][/B]
Now, the device manager, should pop up.
Install ADB drivers, (If you do not have them present, download them here
To prevent confusion: When I say install, it can mean unpack, or install... Quick tip: An installer does nothing, apart from unpacking files, to allocated space, on your computer
Download USB drivers, from here. (Link fixed) (Thanks so much for 5k+ downloads!!)
Should you NOT have drivers installed:
Install the USB drivers, and download ADB/fastboot drivers.
Installation of ADB/fastboot drivers:
Open the device manager, and look for "Samsung Mobile Device", or "Unidentified Device". You can make your search easier, by unplugging the phone, whilst in device manager, then plug it back in, and see what's changed...
Once you have found your phone, Perform a right-click, on the device. Select : "Update device drivers", once the dialog has popped up, choose "Browse my computer" and goto your desktop, where you have installed the files to.
Open just the "drivers" folder, nothing else...
Select OK, then wait for installation to finish.
Once that has been done, you need to reboot your device, into bootloader mode; do this by typing
Code:
path=%userprofile%\Desktop\ADB\
adb reboot-bootloader
into the command prompt (download & install this, if you want to do it the cmd-way...)
Or, turn off your phone, and reboot i it manually into bootloader-mode, by pressing
Code:
VOL UP +DWM & PWR
together, untill phone vibrates...
Once the phone is in bootloader, go back to the device manager, and look for a device named "android 1.0". Perform a right-click on this and select "Update device drivers". Again, selct "Browse my computer", but, instead of clicking on "Browse" and selecting the folder, again, select "Let me pick from a list of drivers." Once the menu has popped up, select "Samsung Android ADB interface". Click OK, and wait for the drivers to install . Then, you're done. You have then successfully installed the ADB + fastboot drivers correctly, to test this, open a cmd window, and type following:
Code:
path=%userprofile%\Desktop\ADB\
fastboot devices
If your device shows up, then you have done it!!
Now type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
adb wait-for-device
adb kill-server
Note: while the phone is booting (If you typed "adb wait-for-device") A cursor will blink, wait for that, to stop blinking, then type the next command
I hope you learned, from this tutorial!! Check my root helper out, if you have enough time
Should you have problems, in recovery, open your dev. manager, and look for following device:
Code:
Full
Select, right-click. Update driver (blah, blah, witter, droan)
Browse my computer -> Let me pick -> Samsung ADB -> Done. You have enabled the ADB drivers, on your Android Device!!!!

Well, not at the moment, but I'll get back to you, as soon as I can!
But, to save time, when I'm on your PC, could you make sure you have the executables (ADB, fastboot and the DLLs) from the first post and your OEM USB drivers? That saves a heck of a lot of time

[Q] Oneplus adb windows drivers

HI everyone.
I have a Oneplus one and i have read some interesting threads about flashing Roms/recovery etc.
But i can't do adb commands to work because windows doesn't install the driver and the adb devices command is not showing any device.
For those who had flashed recovery or roms in oneplus ONE:
Where you got the adb drivers of oneplus one? Or what i have to install on windows7?
Thank you in advance!

Great.. thanks but i'm resolved... i need only to force the driver installation on my Windows......
I have managed to install ADB drivers and the device is discoverable, but there is a problem with MTP driver though. The thing is, the fastboot is not working so I cannot get to flash the recovery and root either. Any ideas? I have yellow exclamation mark near the MTP. Maybe I could uninstall all the drivers and try that again, can you assist?
Despite following advice in this thread, still having trouble getting my home computer to recognize my new OnePlus One. Have USB Debugging enabled on the phone. Have installed SDK toolkit. Have installed the Google USB Driver (via SDK Manager). Have gone into Device Manager and browsed to the folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver" and still get "Windows could not find driver software for your device." Have also downloaded Google USB Drivers separately and get the same issue. Any ideas?
Hopefully just something stupid I'm missing, but frustrating the heck out of me. Will try in the office on Monday if no luck here. Thanks in advance!

I also could not get the device to recognize in fastboot after following instructions (http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/07/30/how-to-set-up-adb-fastboot-with-android-sdk/2/) to get adb (google usb drivers) installed. What I found that worked was to follow the same instructions but at step 18 select Android Bootloader Interface instead of Android ADB Interface. Understand that I found the device in the Device Manager whilst it was connected w/ errors in fastboot mode.
Also, shouldn't have to download the google usb drivers (again) if you already did it to get ADB going. It's the same file.

[GUIDE] Nexus Player - How to Unlock Bootloader and Root using USB cable

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Setup, Preparation and Prerequisites
Open command prompt - Press Window Key + R, type in "cmd" (without the quotes), and hit enter.
USB Debugging - On your nexus player go to Settings > About > Tap on Build number 7 times. This will enable Developer options. Now go back to Settings > Developer options > Enable USB debugging
Enter bootloader mode - Hold the button on the bottom of the device when you plug in the power cable, or enable developer options and "adb reboot bootloader"
Once you are in fastboot mode, the light below nexus player will be blinking constantly. You can verify by using "fastboot devices"
ADB Installation
Download the full Android SDK here (scroll to the bottom of the page>DOWNLOAD FOR OTHER PLATFORMS>SDK Tools Only) or get a slimmed version containing only the essential components here
Extract the zip and place the android-sdk-windows folder on your desktop.
**If you chose to download the slimmed sdk skip to step 5**
Only if you downloaded the full sdk: Go into the android-sdk-windows folder and run SDK Manager.exe. Install the following packages (there are a total of 4 packages):
- Tools > Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools
- Extras > Android Support Library, Google USB Driver
Only if you downloaded the full sdk: Go back into the android-sdk-windows directory, and you should see a new folder named platform-tools. If you don't see this new folder, repeat the step above.
To confirm that it is indeed working, open a command prompt window and enter the following commands:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
adb version
If it displays "Android Debug Bridge version x.x.xx" it is working. If it is gives an error saying that adb is not a recognized command, it has not been successful. Carefully repeat the steps above if this is the case. Close the command prompt window when you are done.
Show File Extensions - Open a command prompt window and run "Control folders" (without the quotes). Go to the View tab and uncheck the "Hide extensions for known file types" option. This will help avoid confusion when renaming files.
Backup (Optional) - Unlocking the bootloader will completely wipe all data from the device. This includes apps, settings and even the contents of the internal storage (pictures, music, etc.). Copy all important files off the nexus player onto a PC or upload them to a cloud.
Driver Installation
Go to Device Manager, find the Android device, and select Update Driver Software.
Select Browse my computer for driver software
Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Selecting show all devices
Clicking have disk
Finally selecting Desktop\android-sdk-windows\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf as the driver
Alternative you can also download and install the Universal ADB Driver.

Download the SuperSU zip below. Extract the zip file and you will have (root.img) to platform-tools folder located on your desktop within the android-sdk-windows folder.
SuperSU (Forum Thread) or SuperSU (Direct link)
Information
Rooting this device is actually quite a simple and easy process. Before you begin, it is recommended that you at least try to understand what each part of the process will do. Although this guide will elongate each step in order to show all of the details, the method used can be broken up into 2 main steps: Unlocking the Bootloader and Rooting. Each new step relies on the previous step to have been completed, and a basic summary of each part is:
Unlocking Bootloader: Opens the door to the internal memory of the device to be written on to. This allows you to flash images onto the main partitions of the device in future.
Rooting: You can gain root booting up root.img
1. Unlocking Bootloader
Turn the nexus player off. Then go into bootloader mode by holding the button on the bottom of the device when you plug in the power cable, or enable developer options and "adb reboot bootloader"
Plug nexus player into your PC, then open a command prompt window and type:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
Code:
fastboot devices
This command will list the connected devices. If your nexus player serial number shows up you are good to go and may continue. If the nexus player is NOT listed this indicates that your drivers are not installed correctly. In order for you to continue you must fix your drivers so that your phone is listed under fastboot devices.
If the nexus player has been recognized by the command above, proceed to unlocking the bootloader with the following command:
Remember that this step will wipe EVERYTHING off the phone
OEM unlock twice
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
After you have done, please proceed onto the next section of the guide.
2. Installing a Custom Recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-touch-recovery-t3114717
https://twrp.me/devices/asusnexusplayer.html
3. Rooting
Now that your nexus player has an unlocked bootloader, now this step is to gain root
Android 7.X
- coming soon -
Android 6.X
Require: TWRP, Custom boot.img and flashable supersu
(Refer to above link)
Android 5.0
Warning: This rooting guide is for Android 5.X only!
Boot (not flash) the root image which will give you root with the stock ROM
Confirm that you have downloaded the SuperSU zip from the downloads section above and you have extracted it and it is located in the platform-tools folder inside of the android-sdk-windows folder on your desktop.
Make sure the nexus player is in bootloader mode
Open a command prompt window and run the following commands:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
Code:
fastboot boot root.img
This will install SuperSU on your device, once the command has completed continue.
Open SuperSU and update the binaries.
Keep in mind that the first boot may take longer than usual.
Congrats! Your nexus player now has an unlocked bootloader, and is rooted.
==================================================
How to flash factory image for Nexus Player?
1) Download image file for your nexus player - https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
2) Boot your Nexus device into fastboot mode.
3) On your computer, use 7zip to extract the .tgz file you downloaded from the Android Developer website. Use 7zip a second time to extract the .tar file you extracted from the .tgz. When you’re done, you should have a folder with several files in it.
4) Copy all of these files and paste them in the platform-tools folder in the Android SDK on your computer. If you followed the above tutorial, this should be under the C drive, then under Program Files (x86) on Windows. Linux users, you know where you put it.
5) If you have not already done so, connect your Nexus device to your computer. ADB and Fastboot commands should already work at this point if you’ve been following along.
There are two flash-all files. If you’re in Windows, you’ll want to double click the one that has the gear logo and says “Windows Batch File” on the right. If you’re on Linux, you’ll want to double click the flash-all.sh.
At this point a box should pop up and you should see the installation taking place. While this is going on, do not unplug your device for any reason. Let it do its thing.
6) Once the installation process as finished, your device will automatically reboot and you can now safely disconnect your device from your computer.

Nice guide.
What about installing BusyBox?
I have a USB OTG cable but the adapter is female on the available USB side...I am not sure how to go about connecting my laptop/PC to the NP in order to perform ADB commands. Do I need a special cable or is there another way?

Don't use the USB OTG cable, use a micro USB cable (same kind of cable that comes with android phones)
I cannot believe I missed that, how embarrassing. Thanks for the response, now I can follow this guide. I was thinking too hard about the OTG cable being a necessary piece of the puzzle.
I am able to get to the bootloader with no problems, I've got ADB and Fastboot installed on my PC, as well as the drivers. However ADB doesn't pick up my NexusPlayer even though fastboot does. Thoughts?
See Attachments
EDIT: Nevermind, I was expecting different responses from adb/fastboot. When in the bootloader adb will not confirm a connection, only fastboot. Sorry for being a noob...

This command will list the connected devices. If your nexus player serial number shows up you are good to go and may continue. If the nexus player is NOT listed this indicates that your drivers are not installed correctly. In order for you to continue you must fix your drivers so that your phone is listed under adb devices.

I could be mistaken, but when you're in the bootloader you're going to use FASTBOOT and not ADB commands. So therefore the command should be "fastboot devices" instead of "adb devices"?

AFAIK ADB is for Android, and Fastboot is for bootloader.
But i have the oposite problem. Mine NP is getting recognized useing ADB when normaly booted, but when i am in fastboot mode, fastboot isent working. I get no output when run 'fastboot devivces'. I have both tried to set the NP in fastboot mode by using the hiod button and plug in power, and with adb rebbot bootloader.
Any one have a clue why adb works, but not fastboot?
Double check to see if you have the latest version of fastboot. I have read that if you don't have the most up to date version the NP is not recognized.

Have you re-installed the Google driver when you are booted in the bootloader? The driver needs to install twice: once when booted into Android, and once when booted into the bootloader
ADB fastboot for Mac Quick Question??
Hey guys does anyone have any idea on how this can be done on a Mac....I know I know. When I initially plug in my Nexus player with the micro usb, nothing happens on my mac or the Nexus so i am guessing that the drivers are not installed. How would i go about getting these for the Mac? I have already downloaded the slim version of the ADB and Fastboot files with the platform tools into a folder on my desktop named Andriod, so i have these already. And i know that if you hold the button down on the nexus and plug the power in it brings up the bootloader screen. I just need help with the commands in terminal and where to access the drivers from. Also, on the Nexus the Developer options have already been enabled and USB debugging has been turned on. If anyone can help, It would be much appricated! Just started to use terminal commands so yes i am a noob in this department . Thanks agin in advance.

Hey Sleepy2, I just did a brief read through and it states this:
Set up your system to detect your device.
If you're developing on Windows, you need to install a USB driver for adb. For an installation guide and links to OEM drivers, see the OEM USB Drivers document.
If you're developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step.
If that is the case, what would you suggest doing next? Thanks again for helping!

Open a terminal, navigate to the directory where you downloaded fastboot and go ahead with the commands shown in the first post. You will probably have to add a "./" in front of the commands given that you are on a mac, e.g.,
Code:
fastboot devices
becomes
Code:
./fastboot devices
I seem to be having the same problem as goxboxlive. I have tried installing the drivers about 100x tried on several computers and rebooted many a time. The only thing I can think of from the posts in here was to update fastboot but I dled the android studio and I would assume that has the latest version in there? Otherwise I couldn't find somewhere to download just fastboot from. Any help or recommendations or where I can dl the latest fastboot?

Follow up. Got it to work. In the guide it says after booting into fastboot to type "adb devices" in the console. You should instead type "fastboot devices" to see if you have the correct drivers and then go on from there. This worked for me, hopefully it will help someone else too.

OPO not recognized in ADB Devices

Hey guys, I've long had this issue with my OnePlus One and I for the life of me cannot figure it out after searching and reading mad threads/forums.
Computer OS: Windows 7 x64
Problem: OnePlus One NOT RECOGNIZED under command > adb devices.
So I'm following all the instructions possible step by step. I have my OPO in Recovery (TWRP 2.8.6.0) and it won't show up as an ADB Devices...
Yet, noting key parameters here:
- All my drivers are up to date
- My Android SDK is up to date

- Java SE is up to date
FastBoot - Phone is recognized (picture below).
ADB Sideload Mode in TWRP Recovery - ADB Sideload recognizes OPO, but doesn't work still.
But standard ADB is not listed when Recovery is on main page. But I get this prompt whenever the phone boots into recovery or I plug it in via USB when Recovery is active.
This is my command prompt to prove FastBoot recognizes my device, but ADB does not.
What am I doing wrong? Can someone help me? I've noticed this issue as long as I can remember, and have resorted to always having to copy my ROM files through the OS, doing a factory reset, then installing. I have never been able to use ADB Push.
Can someone provide me some pointers?
Thanks!!!
do you have debugging enabled on the phone, and if you do, have you authorized that computer on the phone? (I guess you have already, but just throwing out some ideas you might have forgotten)

Firstly, uninstall all the drivers for your OPO from device manager and restart the system
Now, follow this link to install drivers >> http://www.technobuzz.net/install-oneplus-one-usb-drivers-windows/
After this, install adb and fastboot files >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Even I have Android SDK installed on my system for developing apps, however, I used above steps to ensure that my system recognises my OPO

Thanks Mr. Hoax! I will give that a try and report back.
Interestingly in an attempt to use ADB Sideload to install the latest ROM update from scratch, I took a gamble and did a full format/wipe and was able to install the OS using ADB SideLoad. But afterwards, it still didn't come up under ADB Devices...But will try your recommendations and see what happens.

Yessir, Debugging was enabled through the OS (I don't know of any other way to enable debugging?)

Hey Mr. Hoax. I tried those steps, uninstalled every driver I could associate with any of my Android devices (have an HTC One as a backup) and sadly, ADB is still not recognizing my OPO when I enter "ADB Devices".
However, I still get the Windows prompt. Any clue?

After drivers installation is done, you need to reboot your OPO in bootloader(fastboot) mode and type
fastboot devices
And check out if the prompt shows your device serial number.
I see you're using the nexus driver. Perhaps try a Samsung ADB driver. It works with my phone without problems.
I get the same problem with my work PC, while everything works fine at home.
What CSquared4290 says, applies here:
Computer OS: Windows 7 x64
Problem: OnePlus One NOT RECOGNIZED under command > adb devices.
- All my drivers are up to date
- My Android SDK is up to date
The phone is recognised normally under command > fastboot devices.
Symantec Endpoint Protection is running at my work PC. Could this be a reason?

100% agree with the other posters, really delete all of your old USB ADB drivers, including the Google USB driver. Here's a tool I use for that: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
Install Samsung ADB drivers, then when you plug your OPO in you should be able to see it in Device Manager as "Android Device" don't let Windows pick the driver. Right click and pick the browse my computer for drivers, then find the Samsung Android ADB Interface, install that. Unplug your phone, then plug it back in...profit? Good luck!
From my OnePlus X rooting guide. It looks like you need to install the universal adb driver linked in #2 and follow the steps in #3.
If you cannot get the connection to work:
1. Check your USB connection, then verify that Android debugging is enabled in settings and that your computer’s RSA fingerprint has been authorized.
2. Still not working? Open Device Manager in Windows and make sure that you don’t have a yellow exclamation point next to something like “Android Device” or “One.” This would indicate a driver problem that must be resolved. Try re-installing the Universal Android ADB Driver for Windows, and make sure to restart your computer. Once you’ve rebooted, if you still have a yellow triangle, right-click on the device and select “Update Driver Software,” then “Search automatically for updated driver software.”
3. If you still have a yellow exclamation point, then try forcing the driver to install:
In Device Manager, right-click on the device and select “Update Driver Software.”
Select “Browse my computer for driver software”
Select “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”
Select “ADB Interface” from the list
Select manufacturer “Google”
Select “Android Testing Interface Version xxx”
Click “Next.” If you get a warning, select “Yes” to continue and wait for the driver to install properly.
