I installed ADB (Windows 7) has described in this forum. ADB recognizes my phone when the phone is on. When I load the bootloader to prepare to unlock it the serial number does not show like when its on. Is this normal? Do I just proceed to unlock it?

You should not see it mounted unless you have it mounted. try running this command replacing blah with the file path to your adb file
Code:
blah/blah/blah adb shell
If it works, you're golden. If not, troubleshoot
I set the environmental variables so I can just enter adb shell?

Um I'm not too great with windows and on a mac we just drag the adb file into our command prompt and it works =/ what I'm saying is I have no idea what you mean by environmental variables. Try it? If it doesn't tell you the phone isn't there but also doesn't say its starting the daemon then you have to enter everything.
Awesome I'll give it a shot when I get home.

I tried adb shell and it says error: device not found. I've tried to update the drivers that i got from this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878786
Inside the x64 drivers there looks like there are 4 that might work:
Android_test
Android_usb
Android_winusb
Android_winusb2
I really dont understand what I'm doing wrong.
Edit: I entered the entire path and still nothing.
haha I got it. I was getting frustrated of trying to "play it safe" and said screw it. I just went ahead and entered fastboot oem unlock and it worked lol......
Rooted!!!

Just remove your battery, plug the fone to the computer through USB, you will hear some sound repeating from computer, so open devices and printers you will see Omap device appearing and disappearing, just click right on it you will get properties, so inside open drivers, inside the opened pop-up windows click on change settings, so now go click on up-date drivers, don't let Windows choose it for you, click on the second one when inside the pop-up click on floppy disk it will let you pick drivers from where you put it on your computer it should be this one usb_drv_windows,
This post is by "kibaruk" his method worked for me.
Thanks kibaruk!!!!!!

ok for all slate 7 users, i found a real easy and secure way to root our device, no brick chance because it doesn't modify anything inside the tablet, you just push su.
Way easier than having to install software you don't even know what it does...
The hardest part of the whole thing is installing the adb drivers which is detailed below in step 6-7-8 in case it's all you need.
step 1: Download android sdk manager (there are lots of stripped versions that might work but for tutorials sake we'll use the whole thing).
step 2: Download cydia's impactor (cydia's impactor home page in case you are interested in reading a bit).
step 3: Install both software previously downloaded (the android sdk manager doesnt have an installer, it will unzip and work from that directory, it's probably better if you unzip it into an easy to access path but it's up to you, for tutorial we will use c:\asdk\ ).
step 4: Open android sdk manager, select from the list and install only* "android sdk platform-tools" and "google usb driver" (* only as in this are the only things we actualy need, if you need at some other point or are interested in tinkering you are free to do so).
Ok so here we start with the sort-of-hard part, making our computer connect with our slate 7 through adb, to do this you need to...
step 5: Open a command terminal (windows button + r to open a run window and type cmd to open a terminal).
step 6: Go to c:\users\username\.android\ and type within the terminal:
Code:
echo 0x03f0 >> adb_usb.ini
step 7: At this point you need to get back to an explorer window and get to c:\asdk\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\ (or wherever you unzipped it), there you will find a file called "android_winusb.ini", open it and add at the end the following:
Code:
; hp
%singleadbinterface% = usb_install, usb\vid_03f0&pid_5e1d
%compositeadbinterface% = usb_install, usb\vid_03f0&pid_5d1d&mi_01
%compositeadbinterface% = usb_install, usb\vid_03f0&pid_601d&mi_01
step 8: Open windows device manager and you will see your tablet as "hp" with a yellow warning icon, right click it and check update software, then click look for software in the computer, then click on choose driver from a list.
Once you do this you will see an icon "use disk". Explore your way to c:\asdk\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\ and choose "android_winusb.ini" file.
The first option you will see is android adb interface, so you pick next, it will warn you about installing drivers from unkwnown sources you keep saying yes until it's done.
step 9: Go back to your cmd terminal and get to c:\asdk\sdk\platform-tools\ , this is where adb.exe is and type in the following:
Code:
adb kill-server
Code:
adb start-server
Code:
adb devices
if everything worked as expected you will see a device listed, this is your slate 7.
step 10: Now open cydia's impactor tool, you will see a small window with a default command on screen which is the following:
Code:
# drop supersu su to /system/xbin/su
just click start next to it aaaaand you are done!
Just open an app like titanium backup which needs root to see if it worked.
This method is simple plus you don't have to download anything chinese or unnecesary software into your computer, the tutorial is really long because i tried to be as detailed as posible but in the end you shouldnt take more than 5 minutes (the downloads might take a bit longer though for the sdk), i would take screenshots of the process but my computer runs on a spanish version of windows (the same reason why you might see things with different names i was just trying to guess the device manager label part).
If you have any question feel free to ask and if it worked for you a thanks would be awesome so more users will try this.

The Slate 7 and the TP are completely different. I strongly suggest that instead of posting here, you request that XDA start a forum for your device. A quick Google search turns up http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660354&page=855.
I know they are different but there is no Sub Forum for Slate 7.
So I posted it here hoping for someone to reply with Root files :/
Thanks for moving it.

Hey mate,
I have tried to root the HP Slate 7. I am not a developer. I am just an user who knows a thing or two.
Upon trying to sideload flash root files, adb stops and says it cannot be done on production firmware. Same goes via manual.
So the issue relies on the firmware. HP has locked the device down so we will either need to wait on HP to give us the unlock method or for a developer to crack it!
You can always try yourself but not sure if it will work. I think if we created a pre-root firmware we could flash that to gain root.
Root files are universal so just search and download!
Well I can't find root files.
And the problem I think is the CWM.

Tried this and no success. This is what I have been doing and no luck. adb commands work and it will push but the apps aren't there after completing step 2 and running unlock root. I have done a reboot and tried more than once.
I have done this method before so I don't know where I am going wrong lol.
To be honest, I think my Slate and laptop aren't communicating correctly. I cannot transfer non-media files. Have you got this issue?

Did you select the correct library path for Windows to find the driver on the computer??
yes i did point to the folder. both the parent folder and the various inner folders.
it works fine in usb mode when the phone is on.
they are the official google usb drivers is there another source for my Nexus S.
also for reference it is under other devices - android 1.0
do i even need that step?

is there another good guide i can follow? maybe there is a step i need to do before usb install? This guide assumes the usb drivers will come with the SDK but the only data the SDK tries to update is itself to SDK15 which the guide specifically mentioned not to do.

i cannot get usb connectivity in for the fast boot mode
from the rootkit the when i plug in my device even after installing the universal usb drivers i think windows is installing something else. Thus stopping me from accessing it while in fastboot mode
Not really sure what to do here. USB debugging enabled and everything all the guides are pretty easy to follow and have the same steps.

just so you know when i plug in the phone with debugging on i have 'android composite adb interface' installed
i have removed all the drivers from this computer previously. i can do it again though.
after installing pdanet i have 'android 1.0' pop up under other devices with an exclamation on it in device manager...i don't know if that is normal or not?
how do i know when this is working? i always try to run "oem fastboot unlock" which goes to "waiting for device" but will i no longer see the

so if i go to install the drivers from the pdanet folder if i tell device manager to search the winusb folder it says "cannot find drivers for your hardware" and if i dont search and say have disk - i chose 'android device' then the file in android_'winusb' file but it says "specified location does not have information about your hardware"
so i cannot get it to work.
This is on XP and win7 (2 different computers). I prefer the XP one for this though

There should be a prompt on your phone when you connect to a computer. If it doesn't show up, then try using the "Revoke usb authorisations" option and try again.

I did sort of the same. I disabled MTP and didn't enable MTP and that worked. You might need to do a fresh install of the drivers.
You won't get the pop-up by just plugging it in and toggling USB Debug, etc. You need to open up a program that uses ADB (Like WugFresh) or a command prompt in the adb/fastboot folder and typing -> adb devices (or fastboot devices if in fastboot mode). I just revoked computer permissions and tried ticking and unticking everything, and I couldn't get the auth pop-up. As soon as I started WugFresh, the pop-up appeared on the phone to authorize.
Still no popup
I tried everything in this topic and I still don't get popup RSA key.. working with nexus5 4.4.2 and windows8 and WugFresh toolkit
Any idea?

Make sure you have installed the correct drivers... Download Android sdk and make sure you have downloaded the usb_driver...
Go to developer options and revoke permissions, enable adb debugging... Now again connect your n5 to the PC and the a message should popup...
