Hello everyone,
I've been a member since the I had my Sony Xperia X10 and Samsung Galaxy S3 and both phones were rooted using xda forums. I greatly appreciate this community and should contribute more but I'm not that advanced as most users here. I do have a little some experience tinkering around with the computer but I'm mainly a hardware type of guy and know only a little on software.
But here is my problem. I tried a few methods of trying to root my One Plus One and had little success. I came to a conclusion that it's a driver issue. When i use the command adb devices, it wouldnt show any devices. When I look in the device manager with my OPO plugged in, the drivers are missing. I tried to manually download android sdk and install from there but still no luck. I tried using the GUI toolboxes which has the adb and drivers to install. But still came out with no luck.
Can anyone assist me with my situation? When I turn on Developer Options and checked Android Debugging and USB Debugging Notify, I would not get the message to confirm and give access to the computer. I can open all folders in Windows 7 of my OPO and I use the original data cable supplied with my phone.
Thanks in advance!
Try manually installing the correct driver in device manager. Chances are that Windows is picking a matching but incompatible driver from your old device or tries to be smart.

Sorry for the noob question, but where would I find the drivers?

Hey guys, I'm a total noob (please don't hate). I've tried rooting my Nexus S running 4.1 for a long time now, but I just can't
seem to figure it out. I was wondering if someone could walk me though it step by step via some sort of
communication like MSN Messenger. I don't know whether I'm messing up the drivers or what it is, but my
I can't ever unlock my bootloader.
Thanks ahead of time.
Nexus S 4 life but you joined this month hmm lol
Which part are you stuck at?
I tried before I joined. I can't seem to make it say ULOCKED in the bootloader, but I think I'm screwing up the whole thing. Could you please guide me through it? You don't know how happy I'd be.

Do you mean you can't get the Yes/No dialog to show up? Looks like driver problems. Make sure you installed all of the Nexus S drivers needed. While you're in bootloader you should see Android 1.0 under Device Manager on your computer. Installing pdanet usually fixes this..Good luck
i tried pdanet but it comes up with this error message that keeps getting stuck between 2 windows

Hey NexusS4Life, if you still haven't rooted, I'd be glad to help you. I'm no expert, but I'm pretty familiar with the whole process now, seeings as how I've rooted a Nexus One and Nexus S.
Private message me, as soon as I see it we could set up a time to chat on MSN or whatever so this goes quicker.
Well, I was helping him in PM but he hasn't said anything else so A. He's rooted and having the post-root jitters, B. Pissed and sleep

Dear Gents,
I've installed the USB driver from the Motorola's official site, the newest ver.is 2.2.28. But after installed it, my laptop (windows 7 Prof. SP1) still not recognized the photon q.
anyone experienced this? fyi, I also use the original USB cable that came with the Q.
any help appreciate it, thanks before..
You're trying to get adb or...?
I'm on Win7 64-bit, but Home Premium instead of Professional.... Shouldn't matter tho.
Let us know what you're trying to achieve .

OK, you're using this guide?
You're then trying to install the drivers from step #3? Where does it fail? What happens?
Please be as descriptive as possible. We're not mind readers, so the more information the better. Thanks.

Affirmative bro..i am using this "manual", after step 3, proceed to step 4. when I plug the photon q with usb cable, the warning sign pop up on above the tray right below, it said, "the driver doesn't install"
already tried by restart the laptop than re-install the driver again, but still showed the same thing. on window explorer, there is no USB mount also.
by looking via device manager, no adb driver installed also..
Just in case you hadn't thought of it (though I'd assume you have), have you tried changing which usb port you're using on your laptop? I just ask because there's 1-2 I never have as much luck with on my PC for whatever reason.
I've tried that also.. no luck, also use my incre2 cable data also no luck.. any advise, friends?

I don't have the N5 yet, but fastboot works fine with my N4 on Windows 8.1. I would imagine it works fine though.
It may also be wise to update to the latest platform-tools rev.19

Ok Thanks, this is what i want to hear:laugh:
My arc S also has the same issue on 8.1, whereas my Xperia Z works fine. An issue with the arc S it seems, not a universal issue.
Using a Nexus 5 and Windows 8.1 and I can confirm that both ADB and Fastboot work with no problems.

It works fine with Windows 8.1 once you get the drivers working. I had a bit of a delay getting Windows to let me install a driver it didn't trust. I had to run some command lines, reboot and try the install again. If you run into the same problem, I can post the commands.

As long as you put the files on your OS drive you'll be fine
Im on Windows 8.1. I used the wugfresh toolkit to install the drivers. That worked fine. I like the toolkit for it because it has usbdeview built in.
Help!

I know you posted this a while ago but I would love to know what commands you used. My Nexus 5 (and now for some reason Nexus 4) have stopped being authorized devices in the ADB. I've tried everything, every driver and update I could find. I'm getting desperate now! :silly:

If something doesn't make sense to you that's doesn't mean the idea is wrong.
You are not installing driver TO A tablet. You are installing drivers to a Windows for the Windows to be able communicate with the device in ADB mode.
Win XP is a no-go. The drivers I provided in my link work with your tablet 100% when installed in Windows 7 32/64.
This is a proven fact.
So try them on a Win7 computer
Got it. I guess I'll be visiting my friends house soon I really hope the drivers work, I'll report back as soon as I can. Thanks.

Sorry to bother again, but can't seem to find anyone in town (It's summer vacation where I'm at right now). Would it work if I installed the drivers using a windows 7 virtual machine? And are there really no drivers that would be compatible with win XP?
ur answer is simple

I have problem starting my nexus 5 (Stock, android 6.0)
Boot stopping on Google logo. However adb unavailable (adb devices shows nothing, but USB debugging enabled in Dev settings)
Ok, when I go to fastboot menu fastboot devices shows nothing too

I tried this under Windows 8.1 and Xubuntu
On Windows phone displayed as "Unknown USB device", but Windows decline offer to update driver for this device (aka "My system driver up to date")
I also tried to wipe data through recovery, but it returned error - couldn't mount /cache, /data and /system
Please help.
Have you tried under Windows 7? I don't know or use Linux and I also have problems with Windows 8 so I downgraded my machine to Windows 7 and stays on 7.
uninstall and reinstall the drivers in Windows.
Use Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit button "Install & test drivers" - it guides you through the setup of your Windows drivers. I also had problems with Windows 8, though I think that 8.1 was ok, and on Windows 10 I have no driver problems.

On Windows 7 the same behaviour
Not sure what to suggest but you need to get it recognized so you can unlock the bootloader and flash a stock ROM.
io_zhik said:

Start the device in bootloader mode... Look for DEVICE MANAGER in Windows, connect the phone and look for it on the list. Right click and UNINSTALL (probably Unknown USB device).
Disconnect the phone and reconnect it, it should install by itself and start working. If it works you might have to do the same while the phone is in bootloader mode.
If this doesn't work, try installing Wugfresh's nexus root toolkit, it guides you through everything, including installing/updating windows drivers. A lot of experienced users don't like the toolkit since you don't actually learn much by using it. The way I see it is as a tool (as it's name says) that does all the work for you while you sit back and relax, and so far it has worked well most of the time, specially when doing what you want to do, do a fresh install of Android.
You could also try updating the Windows drivers using the drivers from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...nt/adb-fb-apx-driver-universal-naked-t2513339

I didn't know you where the first one to ever suggest the toolkit. By your logic, you too should have quoted whoever suggested the app before you, even if it was in another forum.
Anyways, since you actually took your time to complain about it, and to make you feel better, I'll say sorry. wtf lol
