I have a Fujitsu P1120 touchscreen netbook. I have been trying to dual boot android with the windows xp that is on there but have had no success. I cannot seem to figure out the right way to put android on the hard drive. It keeps coming up with a grub error for invalid filesystem. I have downloaded liveandroid, android 86x. The main problem that I have is that my device doesn't support booting from usb, booting from network, or any usb external drive. So the only way I can get it to work is to manually install android but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone help me with this please?

I so happy now.. i found one dvd-rw usb work very fast in the my fujitsu...
Is liteOn Slim USB (have 2 usb) dvd-rw and the bios work..
To put it bluntly you're trying to get your netbooks to do something it isn't intended to do. Those thing are built with the absolute bare minimum to do pretty much nothing more than browse the web, hence "netbook". It's not a full PC. Even the newer ones don't run a full version of Windows 7. Short of knowing how to re-write a BIOS image or finding a modified one and flashing it, which has the risk of perma-bricking your computer.
Волк,
Sorry my bad english..I have a good computer, phone and tablet. However I like to modify my old electronics giving new life to them .... Now for example I'll replace the HDD Fujitsu Lifebook P1120 IDE for SSD and I'll put a PCMCIA card with internal memory to speed up Windows. I installed windows 7 and it is working. So I had to make a modification in winsetup.dll to install.
At the moment I install Android but I am having difficulties.
I'm very new to Android development (my first app), so please bear with me.
I'm using Eclipse with the android SDK. Using the Android SDK and AVD Manager, I've installed the Usb Driver package, rev 3.
To this point, I've been using the emulators to debug and develop. Now I need to debug on my device (bought a ViewSonic GTablet). Somewhere in my searching for solutions to how to get this going, I found that I need to get the drivers correctly installed. Those instructions directed me to:
- Modify the android_winusb.inf file in the usb_driver folder
- Install USBDeview program
- Removed all drivers associated with Andriod and NVIDIA Tegra 2 (I think there were 3 or 4)
- Connect the GTablet with USB and follow new found hardware wizard. Direct it to modified .inf file
The problem is, the "Found New Hardware Wizard" does its thing automatically without user intervention. I end up with 1 NVIDIA Tegra 2 USB Device driver. I think I'm supposed to have another driver called something like "Android Composite ADB Interface".
I tried using the Add Hardware wizard to install this, but it always results in saying "This device cannot start. (Code 10)".
Sorry for this lengthy explanation...can anyone please help?
Hi,
I struggled getting adb working until today. There's info for getting adb working with Gtab here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827209
The key for me was adding the 3 lines to the .inf. Make sure you have USB debugging enabled on the tab.
Then, in Win Device Manager uninstall the devices under Android.
Then unplug the USB, then reboot Windows.
After Windows starts, plug in USB, then when wizard pops up, browse to the USB driver dir.
Jim
Thank you jimcpl for the reply.
It's still a no-go.
I have done all the steps lined out in the link you provided--and thought your reboot step may be the key to making it work, but that didn't do it.
When I plug the GTab back in, I do get a "found new hardware" popup message, but no wizard is appearing. The result is, the system is installing:
(With the help of USBDeview window)
Device Name: NVIDIA Harmony
Description: NVIDIA Tegra 2 USB Device
Device Type: Mass Storage --> This one I can use to transfer files
...
I see no other devices associated with the GTab
What device type should the "Android Composite ADB Interface" be?
Also...Maybe this is a silly question, but isn't it the miniUSB connection I should be plugging in to?
More info on the problem
I found that when attempting to install the adb driver, the system is not using the .inf file I'm pointing it to. It is using one titled "oem24.inf". I found this by looking in Start->All programs->Accessories->System Tools->System Information. Then under Software Environment/Signed Drivers there is the "Android ADB Interface" listed.
I can see the referenced oem24.inf file (and associated .pnf files) under C:\Window\inf folder
BTW. I'm on Windows XP Pro SP3
In here I see at least 3 .ini files that have the three lines that we're using to modify the android_windusb.inf file with.
So the question now becomes...
How do I get the installation (or driver update) to use the .inf file I point it to?
Another recent thread suggested that window's supplied drivers will have to be removed. Are these what he may be referring to? If so how do I do that?
PLEASE -- I need a response from someone that knows something about this!
Memory doesn’t serve me too well in windows xp but go to device manager, click on action, add legacy hardware, Install the hardware that I manually select or something close to that then, have disk and point to the directory where the inf is located and install it. Make sure you modded the inf from the post above and you should be good to go.
Thanks...but, not the solution
I really appreciate the suggestion littleoldme!
In XP, Device Manager/Action menu only has the "Help" link which lauches the Microsoft Management Console. Doing a search for "Legacy" in the console results in no hits.
So I'm still stuck

I found your answer.. see URL below
tegradeveloper.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/after-installing-froyo-adb-cant-see-device
I want to thank all who responded with suggestions to this problem.
I've followed all advice given and carefully followed all directions given in suggested links.
Unfortunately, there seems to be some underlying condition on my pc that is preventing the successful installation of the necessary adb driver. No matter what I have done so far, Windows is choosing NOT to use the driver I point it to, and use what it wants instead. I don't even get the "New Hardware" wizard when following the directions. It installs automatically and I have to launch a separate "Install new Hardware" dialog.
Anyway...through persistence, I've been able so far to develop this first app without the debug connection to the device using the development emulators, then installing the signed .apk on the device for further testing (via the one USB mass storage connection I do get).
So, maybe one day I'll find the reason, but for now I'll be purging on to get the app ready to go.
Thanks again for all help received.
I just come across this thread. After insert the usb device, then you might might find the unknown device in device manager. unstall that unknown device. And then do a hardware scan again in device manager. After it find your device again, point back to your USB inf file. It might work this way.
One thing I forgot. Do not unplug your device between uninstall and hardware scanning.
AAAHHH! GTAB Eclipse ADB frustration!
Thanks for all the tips, everyone, but I've been trying for days to be able to connect my gtab to use as a device for installing/debugging my apps. I too am running Eclipse using the emulators to date.
I've tried the steps outlined in the link provided by jimcpl, as well as others that are slightly varied, but to no avail.
I am running Vista SP2. My Gtab has been rooted, running ClockworkMod, and TnTLite 2.2. I also updated the Google USB package, rev 4 via the SDK/AVD Manager after attempting to use the rev 3 usb package.
Should any of these be reason why I cannot connect my gtab to Eclipse via ADB?
I'm totally frustrated...If anyone has any other suggestions, please forward them on!
Thanks in advance.

On the Gtab, is USB debugging enabled?
On the Windows machine, did you add the 3 lines for tetra?

Thanks Jim...Yes, and yes. I finally got connected. Old drivers were conflicting, and even though I'd repeatedly uninstall them in Device Manager, the ADB USB drivers would load, but not start the device. I finally got USBDeview to uninstall them successfully after many attempts and reboots, plugged in my GTab, and finally installed correctly, and it works like a champ!

Hi,
Ok, thanks. I'm glad it's working for you now.
FYI, I think that when you "uninstall" a device from Device Manager in Windows, it doesn't physically delete driver files, etc. from your hard drive. It just removes the references to the removed device drivers from the Windows configuration.
That's why if you reboot, or do a scan for devices again, and if Windows thinks that it detects the physical device, it'll try to use the same driver files, .inf, etc. In that case, you have to force the installation of the new/correct driver, by not letting Windows automatically find the drivers (because otherwise, Windows will find the same ones from before, the non-working ones).
It's kind of a pain sometimes ... I ran into the same thing when I tried to install the ADB USB drivers. I downloaded the USB driver files from Android dev website, but those are generic. They have stuff in the .inf for some phones/devices that Google has relationships with, but not the "proprietary" ones like for the Gtab. That's why you have to add the 3 lines, which match (I guess) the Gtab.
Jim
Hello everybody,
I could not find any other experiences so far so I'd like to confirm that if someone is trying to use livesuit under WinXP running in a virtual machine in Virtualbox it works perfectly.
Just connect the tablet and then enable the new USB device in Virtualbox, and Windows will pick it up.
The only thing to take care of is that when the tablet is connected, a new hardware wizard comes up. At this point you need to MANUALLY install the drivers in the wizard TWICE before livesuit picks up the tablet.
If someone is having trouble I'd be happy to help.
I'm trying to do this a WinXP virtual machine inside of Mac OS X. Managed to install the drivers once but, virtualbox drops it quickly from the list of usb devices before livesuit can ask me if I want to flash the img
Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this is a MacOSX specific problem but wondering if you ran into the same problem.

Hi,
After having had a gazillion of frustrations while attempting to add Ubuntu 12.04 to my PC, I had enough of the endless chain of problems to reach the point of installing the requirements for ADT.
So I thought I might be able to go with a virtual machine. I have my environment (Ubuntu 12.04, ADT and its requirements) installed and working on Oracle VM (with extensions installed).
Whatever I try with the USB settings, I'm unable to get either my Nexus 7 or my Asus TF300T to work on the VM.
I tried adding a USB filter with the correct IDs, but that didn't add either device to my VM.
I ran out of ideas to try. I really want to learn more about developing for Android, but it seems I can't get the devices to work.

Thanks, with some trial and error I got it working.
In short:
On the host run adb devices to start the deamon, it listens on port 5037, so with FreeSSHd on my windows host I could enable an ssh connection from my VM client using:
autossh -M5037 -N -f -R 5037:localhost:5037 10.0.2.2
Then my adb devices lists my hosted device.
On to the next challenges...
Hi all,
I am a beginning Android developer, currently doing a Coursera course at home on my Windows 10 laptop.
I have Android Studio installed and would love to run my projects on my Samsung Galaxy S5. There is no way though I can get adb (or Windows for that matter) to 'detect' my phone for debugging.
I have my deveopers options and USB options on on my phone, have installed Samsung USB driver for mobile devices, have installed the Windows Media feature pack (as this should give MTP support), have installed Intel's USB drivers for Android (my laptop has a core i5), all to no avail. I've put so much time into this and it is driving me crazy... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I would like you to visit this thread and follow it, The method works for windows 8/8.1/10. You just need to use the correct drivers for your device.

Hey, sorry if I'm clueless, I managed to restart in Disable driver signature enforcement mode, but I have no idea where to find the ADB driver. I've installed Android Studio, no idea where it put it...
I searched the drivers from my settings, but couldn't find an ADB driver. Also did a search for ADB Driver.exe, but no go...
Here's another thing, if I go to the Android developers website (oem-usb.html page on developer.android.com, can't post links...) it has instructions for Windows 7 and Vista. It says:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Devices in the left pane.
Locate and expand Other device in the right pane.
Right-click the device name (such as Nexus S) and select Update Driver Software. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Click to expand...

But when I connect my phone, it doesn't show up in the devices (ther is no Other devices section...)
