ASUS ME181C cannot connect ADB - General Questions and Answers

I have an Asus ME181C with a BBY.xxx build. I have not been able to root the device. I did see that there is some knowledge that the BBY.xxx builds cannot be rooted for some reason. I am also not able to connect to my laptops (xp and win8.1) with ADB. My main concern now is the inability to connect. I downloaded the Android SDK to the win8.1 laptop but it is complaining about 64-bit. I will try downloading the SDK to the xp machine and try connecting to it. Does anyone have any knowledge of these issues with the BBY.xxx builds? It seems like the WW.xxx builds are able to be rooted and no problems connecting.

[Q] Tf101 and win7

Hi everybody!
I write here `cause I have a problem qith my tf101 and my pc (win 7) connection.
I used to be able, with the proprietary cable, to connect the two machine and manage the files in the tf101 as an hdd (even windows saw it as a different device, not hdd).
Recently I try again and.. nothing. Even with other pc, no sucess. the tf101 is not recognized at all (after a one-time attempt to install the ""unknown usb device"). The only things that I`ve done are the updates to the tf101 when avaiable. The version of the kernel is now 2.6.36.3.
I`m looking for a solution in the net for sometime now, and the only answer I get is the suggestion to connect via samba or similar. I`ve tried but is not intuitive and fast as the cable connection I use to use.
Has somebody solved the same problem or has any suggestion to make the cable connection work?
ps: I`ve already installed the latest drivers from Asus website in the pc.
Thanks in advance!!
1. try other PC or another OS on your PC
2. try other Cable
3. check your privileges on OS
4. etc to exclude negative staffs 1 by 1
I`ve already tryed with athor 2 pc (one win xp, one win 7), and another cable.
Still have to try with Ubuntu. I`ll do it as soon as I can.
As for the privileges.. you mean in the pc? Over there I`m admin. In the tf101... I didn`t do anything so I`m not superuser, if you mean that.
It seem strange that I used to be able to browse the tablet from the pc and all of a sudden I can`t anymore.
Tryed with Ubuntu. Doesn`t see it as well.

windows 8 and usb drivers?

Hey everyone, I just got a transformer and I can't get it to connect with either of my computers via USB. Both are running the Windows 8 Developer Preview. Has anybody else tried to connect their transformer to a Windows 8 machine and had problems or got it working? Any insight would be helpful.
thanks
Do you have asus sync and the drivers installed?
Yeah, I installed the package from the Asus website, rebooted both my computers and my tablet multiple times as well.
the drivers are probably just incompatible with windows 8 then considering its still just a dev preview. Last thing you might want to try doing is installing the android and java sdk's
Actually, Windows 8 (when I had it installed) did not need any plus drivers, it recognized the TF (and every other Android devices, with ADB, etc), without specifying the driver, and it was working.

[Resolved] Using livesuit under linux in a virtual machine running WinXP

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.

[Q] Problem with USB mass storage

Solved: Hopefully this helps someone else. I uninstalled all LG drivers from my PC. Then I connected my phone in via usb and checked my device drivers and updated them. However, rather than letting Windows find the best MTP drivers I chose to browse my computer and picked from a list on my PC. I selected the Linux drivers and everything works perfectly now,
I have a P509 running WC’s AOKP Milestone #6 but I did something stupid…while cleaning up files and programs I uninstalled my LG usb driver for my P509 and now I can’t get the PC to recognize the phone. I run W7 64 bit and it just won’t connect - not even from recovery. On another XP PC it connects no problem (it has LG driver 4.9.4 installed although I don’t recall installing it) and my laptop running W7 64 bit connects no problem either (it has LG driver 3.6 installed, but again I don’t recall installing it on the laptop either). Installing 4.9.4 or 3.6 on my problem PC doesn’t help. I keep getting an error that “MTP… whatever” failed. It’s driving me nuts. I can use the other computers if I need to but the problem PC is my main unit and more convenient to use for all my needs. Also, the phone is recognized by my work PC which has no LG drivers installed at all, nor could I if I wanted to as I don't have admin rights.
Any suggestions for my W7 PC?
Thanks,

[Q] Which version of windows is easiest to use android sdk on?

I would like to say that I am not a developer or anything. I am having problems using adb commands on my computer (windows 8). It is a problem with drivers and such that the computer doesn't recognize the phone when in recovery. The same setup works on my windows vista desktop. I know many people have problems with drivers working on windows 8 and i was just wondering what version of windows is the easiest to work with?

Windows 7 is the best option for me. But there is still a problem, the driver never work with the driver for windows phone 8.
