Please take your time to read this.I will keep it quite short, but try to understand my problem.
Ok so I am trying to enable USB debugging for my Nexus 5.But everytime I try to install the ADB driver, it says parameter is incorrect (I'm using windows vista).
At first, I didn't have the SDK installed, so I downloaded the 70 MB SDK Manager, and from there I downloaded the platform tools & google drivers, then I tried installing the drivers manually using the Device manager using both methods of locating the file manually using the have disk method and the locate the directory and include sub folders method..but both have failed to install the driver and it keeps saying the parameter is incorrect.
Suggestions?
Use a different driver from the one included in the SDK. Either use the USB driver package provided by lg(I did this and it went flawlessly) or use the "naked adb driver" which is a simple adb driver that should just work.(I used the former because the naked driver is third party and not properly signed, so it's a pain to install on windows 8)
Find either through a Google search.

i am sorry to ask this but are you having problem enabling usb debugging? did you activate developer option by tapping build number seven times?
Man this stuff gave me such a headache same issue here. But with fastboot. I had to manually update the drivers while the phone was plugged in. That's what messed me up.
First uninstall all drivers
While phone is on.
Update drivers with USB debugging enabled
While phone is in boatloader
Update again.
Adb and fastboot should work fine after that. Use one of the exe type drivers. Like LGS driver .exe than go into the device manager and update. Let the computer find the drivers.

I recently crashed my vista hard drive and decided to give windows 7 a try, its working wonders right now. The only problem is that I'm trying to put Nandroid back up on my computer again. I am at the step of trying to get the fastboot loader. It worked on Vista, but now it is saying that the "Driver is not intended for this platform." Is that due to windows 7? Is there a work around for this? Any help would be amazing, thanks.
I used Fastboot on Win7 7100 build yesterday, and it worked fine. Did you set everything up according to this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3311708&postcount=2
This is all that I did, and everything worked flawlessly. Good luck.
hmm..yeah, i did do everything according to the tutorial exactly, do you have email, aim, gmail, etc? could you help me?
use the newest driver in this SDK..
http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r1/index.html
If you dont see the ADB Device or whatever its called in the device manager you need to delete a generic volume and scan for hardware changes.... HTC talks about it here. I had to do it also...

Troubleshooting
fastboot.exe (on Windows) doesn't detect the ADP device properly
In some cases, Windows detects the ADP1 bootloader as a USB mass storage device, preventing fastboot.exe from accessing it. To resolve the issue, you can dissociate the USB Mass Storage driver from your ADP1 on your Windows machine and install the proper driver instead, as described in the steps below:
1. Boot the device into fastboot mode, as described above, and connect the device to your machine over USB.
2. Navigate to Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers. Observe that the ADP device is listed as a USB Mass Storage Device.
3. Right-click USB Mass Storage Device and select Uninstall. Windows then prompts you with a "New Hardware Found Wizard" message. If Windows doesn't prompt you, you can manually re-detect devices by selecting Action > Scan for hardware changes.
4. Install the USB driver included in the Android SDK, as described in Setting up a Device for Development on the Android Developers site.
thanks southsko, i'll try this and let you guys know how it works.
I tried your method Southsko, but it didnt work for me. I think the problem is that windows 7 refuses to install the driver for the htc dream, because its not "intended for this platform" is there a way to force it to install the driver? or manually install the driver?
When I wrote that tutorial it was using Windows 7 beta. I have also used it since I upgraded to Win7 RC, so I know that it can work. Did you make sure to install driver when the phone is connected and booted to the boot loader screen? Windows sees the phone as a different device when connected normally and at the boot loader. When I installed the driver It popped up with the message that it was for a different version, but it gave me an option to install it anyway. Are you logged in to Windows with admin rights?
i had the same problem earlier tonight, i figured since i was running win7 i might as well try using the virtual xp out. I started the VM up and the attached the phone using the drop downs and it worked flawlessly.
yup .. it's working fine for me too.. if you are using 64 bit version ... u need to use the 64 bit usb driver too... u can get it here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446274
Also you may have trouble installing it in Windows 7 unless you turn off driver signing at boot menu. Hit F8 and select no driver signing and you should be able to install it no problem... u will also have to disable driver signing each time you plan on using adb/fastbboot

When choosing the driver software, make sure you select the "x86" folder instead of usb_driver or any parent folder. This is because the wizard search sub directories in alphabetical order, and will stop when it find the driver for x86-64(amd64). Then it will simply tell you "not intended for this platform" without looking in the x86 folder.
Also, you do not have to disable driver signing for this to work.

I am in bootloader mode, and I am an admin. It didn't give me the option to install it anyways. That is interesting. I am currently still using the windows 7 beta. I have tried manually selecting the specific driver files. It is still not working, any other ideas?
I finally got it! thanks everyone. The solution was instead of having it search through the files, there is actually an option below it to pick the driver from a list, the list wasnt the right one originally, then i manually changed the directory and it worked. Thanks for the help everyone!

How come when I installed this on Beta I got the message that I could not install a non-digitally signed driver? I was not able to install it myself until I disabled it at boot... maybe the 32 bit version is signed.
Team XDA Developers,
It's been a long frustrating evening and I write to you in a desperate plea for help. First off--YOU ARE ALL GENIUSES. That being said let my scrubby noobermcnooberstein train of thought commence.
Found a lot of help from 'drexman8244' on the Nexus S 'fastboot help?' thread and although I've made it decently far... I've hit a wall that I cannot overcome.
First--the specs. Running Windows XP SP3 32-bit. The phone is a Samsung GT-i9020 (aka Nexus S).
Second--I've successfully installed the Java SDK, the Android SDK, downloaded USB drivers from Google, downloaded/installed a copy of ADB into the '/SDK/tools' directory, configured the PATH value in the Windows System Environment variables in Control Panel 'System', and basically set things up to rock and roll.
Third--I turn on my Nexus S, enable USB debugging, and attach the device to the workstation. The system detects the device and produces the following output (which appears to install the Android ADB driver and successfully establish a connection to Nexus S). Verified this step by entering 'adb devices' in a command prompt. Working great!
Fourth--In the command prompt I enter 'adb reboot bootloader'. The device reboots... but here's where things get strange. The device enters Fastboot (bootloader) mode and the Windows workstation request an additional 'Android 1.0' hardware device driver to continue. (I've searched far and wide and can't seem to find something that resembles this driver)
Fifth--Regardless of my efforts to direct the Hardware Installation Wizard to the 'C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver' location on my workstation... it just doesn't seem to accept that as a valid driver for the device in Fastboot (bootloader) mode. Blows my mind.
Sixth--??? What steps do you fellas think I should take next?! I've obviously tried uninstalling the device from the workstation, rebooting the Nexus S and the workstation, attempting to install the ADB driver before attaching the device and rebooting into Fastboot. Nothing I've tried seems to work.
Any input is especially appreciated and I hope that there's nothing left out. Warm regards--
The Kid

as far as the USB driver and such, dont point it directly at the USB-driver folder point it at the SDK folder and then click the box that searches the sub folders
The drivers from Google aren't borked. You install one driver - the "normal" Android USB interface - for when the phone is plugged in and fully booted, and another - the "Fastboot" interface - for when the phone is plugged in but in recovery. For the latter, you have to pick the driver manually and do a force install, as Windows won't recognize the device.
Both drivers are available in the usb-drivers directory in the Android SDK directory, provided you loaded the SDK manager and downloaded the USB drivers.

This is correct. Oddly, I had no problems searching with the driver with the wizard on my win7 x64 pc, but had to manually point it for the fastboot relevant driver on my laptop, running the same OS.
Basically, as jimmypopulous says, you need to manually select the usb driver when you're in fastboot, according to my experience.
I hear what folks are saying about the Google USB drivers working fine for most installs.
That being said... No matter how many times I manually provided the path to the Google Fastboot driver location the OS refused to accept them as valid. (Seems like there are others that experienced this problem from a quick glance at the forums.)
In either case it seems as though the alternative drivers resolved the problem and I appreciate all the feedback that was given!

I had the same issue - my Nexus One always worked fine on my laptop but even after updating the SDK & drivers I couldn't get fastboot to work with my Nexus S.
ADB worked fine but my laptop didn't recognise my phone properly via fastboot.
After installing PDANet, fastboot works as well now - thanks very much for your help, my NS is now rooted!
Hi,
This is my first post so bear with me and let me know if I'm outta line in any way.
I'm trying to root my nexus s and I am running XP. I can get ADB devices to work but when it comes to fastboot my device is not recognised. I have been trying for a couple of days and still cannot get it to work! I have installed PDAnet and and tried force installing the drivers but I can' get them to install. When I click install driver from a list and browse to the drivers it says that the specified location does not have information about your hardware. Is there something I am doing wrong here? Is there another way I can force install the driver?
Also I am a MASSIVE NOOB so please try and be specific when giving me directions.
Thank you XDA Overlords!
Uninstall all references to the drivers. your phone should show up with a bang once done properly.
Then follow the excellent guides here to root your phone properly

Adding these 2 lines in the android_winusb.inf file from the google "usb_driver" folder helped me.

Detailed:
If your PC displays "Android 1.0" in Device Manager (when you try to connect the phone through fastboot), then go to Android 1.0, Properties, Details tab. Select Hardware ids.
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E20&REV_0100 This part should be exactly the same with the one you add in "android_winusb.inf"
When you say uninstall all references what do you mean? Again, I am a massive noob. Do you mean uninstall the device with USBDeview from all the previous times I have tried installing it? I've tried that multiple times and still can't get it to work

In fastboot the ns just comes up as unknown device with hardware id of USB\UNKNOWN.

Maybe the installer has changed since I did it.
Try running PDA install, put phone in fastboot, then plug in when prompted.

Yea maybe it did change. When I run the installer it stops and requests that you connect the device and put it in debugging mode. When you connect the ns in fastboot it doesn't read it as the ns so just continues to ask you to connect the ns.
Thanks for the idea though! Keepem coming people!
I just uninstalled the drivers from my laptop and installed again using PDAnet method. It worked without a problem.
The only other thing I can think of is to boot phone and make sure USB Debugging is checked and try again.

I`ll try to help you:
1. Download the 0.73 drivers from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386956 and extract the file once with 7-zip
2. Connect the phone to usb and in device manager (rightclick) delete all excisting drivers of the device and after that uninstalll the device.
3. De-connect and reconnect the device and prevent windows to search for drivers. Select the device and rightclick and select update drivers. Then choose to install drivers from the pc and choose the unzipped 0.73 file and click install.
That should work, you may have to reboot the PC sometimes.
Good luck bro.

Hi All,
I was trying to enable the ADB with PAC ROM when my evita is switched on as we do on sense roms.
But my Windows 7 PC is unable to detect the phone as android and It was searching for drivers online and at last failing to find the drivers.
I have HTC Android drivers installed on my PC and android debugging enabled on my evita.
Is this is the known behaviour of KK 4.4.2 AOSP ROM's ??
Not that I know of, I've had no problems using adb on any of the KitKat ROMs I've tried. How have you installed the drivers?

Ok. It can be a huge hassle, I had the opposite problem. My adb was working beautifully on my new laptop but I couldn't get fastboot working with official HTC drivers. Ended up using the drivers from pdanet to get it to work, but they ended up not being compatible with RUUs. So tried with the official HTC drivers again, plugged in my fiance's Evita instead of mine, and bam! Perfect driver setup. Go figure. The amount of times I've helped people on XDA get their drivers working and it took me like three friggin days.

No, only one set of drivers. When the official HTC drivers didn't work with fastboot I uninstalled them and used the pdanet drivers. When the pdanet drivers didn't work with the RUU I uninstalled them and installed the HTC drivers again.

I have experience similar problem after flash to KK4.2.2: adb never connect and no authorization confirmation pop up will show. I found that in my device manager there is a device called "One X" without driver. I get all my htc driver from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217396 never installed htc sync. I searched around, everyone was talking about disable and re-enablle adb debug and "allow" its access from the popup and no one was having the "no driver" problem. I solved this problem by editing one inf file in the installed driver.
SOLUTION
If you have installed the driver from the link above, under:
C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64
there will be a file named androidusb.inf. Depending on your windows installation path and bitness, this path may be slightly different. Edit it with notepad, find a line
%MyHTC%=HTCAND64.Dev, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FF2&MI_01
insert the following line just below that line
%MyHTC%=HTCAND64.Dev, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FF9&MI_01
save the file and use "update driver" in device manager to install driver. manually select the search directory and windows should find the driver. After the driver is installed, adb works like a charm.

I take it you have created a path in windows /android-sdk/platform-tools ?
Have you disabled usb driver signature authentication if you`re on Win8/8.1?
