I apologize if this is not the right forum and I would request that it be moved, not deleted, if possible if its the wrong forum. I'm kind of stuck here.
Have a bit of an interesting situation. I am running Windows 7,
got the USB driver successfully installed... boot up the command prompt and BAM:
C:\android>adb remount
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
C:\android>adb devices
List of devices attached
Here is the weird thing...
C:\android>fastboot devices
HT97JLV05321 fastboot
It looks like the fastboot is recognizing that my phone is attached but the adb shell will not. Any ideas what the issue could be?
LOL, I just switched back from Ubuntu to Windows 7 just to see how things have progressed. There are so many little Windows 7 quirks that drive me crazy that drove me back to Ubuntu almost instantly. Give Linux a try. A good starting Linux OS would be Linux Mint:

I had a similar issue when I tried it. Despite the fact that there are 64-bit drivers for Vista/7 available, I don't believe they actually work for ADB currently. I'm pretty sure everyone who has ADB working is using Windows XP 32-bit.
I actually burned a copy of Ubuntu that I was just going to run off of the CD. I'll give that a shot and see if it lets me do what I need to do. Thanks for the quick responses.
I am using Windows 7 final (RTM) (64-bit) and also Windows 7 Beta (32-bit) on two different computers. They all work fine with adb commands.

I faced the same problem a few days ago. I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and in a first installations the drivers work fine and the device has been displayed, but BAM when I try to use ADB no way.
After many tries I resolved the issue running the Command Prompt as "Run as administrator" and VOILA worked fine.
I hope this can help you.

Try Mint instead of Ubuntu. Mint is Ubuntu based. The big difference with Mint is that it already has all of your codecs installed - great for beginners.
If you installed first the htc sync, you have to remove the current drivers..
and had the drivers from the androidsdk pack! There's is a a lot of program who delete usb installed hardware/drivers.. delete all from htc on this programs!
Hope this solves ur issue!
I use Win7 64bit(rc1) .. i have the amd64 driver installed..
I see the phone from adb (not fastboot) when it's normally connected with USB debugging turned on.
I see the phone from fastboot (not adb) when it's in fastboot mode.
I have no choice but to laugh at myself, just realized I was IN FASTBOOT on my phone and not recovery. Fail me.
Now if I could just edit this apps2hd code /sigh.

Except that... that wasn't my issue Its ok thanks for the input.
"error: device not found"
I can't get ADB to work with my Windows 7 X64 Ultimate. Windows automatically install a driver for the phone when I plug it in. When I try to install my own driver with the one in the SDK, I get:
"....doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems."
Doing a update to the driver, it says the one I have installed is already up to date.
I have the latest Win 7 with all important Window updates.

The same confi, the same result
Everything works fine here with Win 7 Ultimate x64, you just install the driver in the Android SDK.
make sure u have usb debugging checked... cause i have windows 7 rtm ultimate and my adb works fine... i just loaded the needed file into windows/system32 and also put my fastboot.exe in there and added the tools folder to the environment variables and have no problems
What do I load to the system32 folder? I can't install the drivers from the SDK package. Is there a way to overwrite the ones Windows automatically installs and thinks is more up to date?

Make sure your phone is in recovery mode and NOT fastboot mode.
Finally, I experienced that error you people had been reporting. It MAY have to do with the HTC Sync driver, as suggested, but it really had worked fine with other roms before, so I am not sure. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, tried to push the ADB driver manually, but that didn't work. And, before I try to uninstall the HTC Sync driver as suggested (I don't even know if I have that installed), I got it working by just plugging in another USB flash drive. Go figure.
So for anyone still having the issue after trying all other solutions, try this bizarre one:
1. Go to device manager and uninstall the HTC disk drive device. (This alone won't work, I tried)
2. With phone still plugged in, plug in a USB disk drive (or maybe just any USB device?) into another USB port.
3. Suddenly Windows 7 detect that unknown ADB driver, as it should. Now you can go ahead to install the correct ADB driver.
As a side note, this computer running Windows 7 Beta/RC have had a lot of problems with USB disk drives in general. The problems disappear after Windows 7 RTM (final).
Ok I think im going crazy, I cant find anything about this.
Im trying to access my tab via ADB in OSX. My Evo works just fine, but I just cant find the gtablet. I see in Windows driver's ini has to be modded to include tegra device ID and vendor ID, but I dont see anything for osx and my device is not getting recognized!
Thanks for your help!

Ok so after some time, I just found the solution, I dont know why I need it, and some people didnt but anyway, for whoever is having the same problem as I did, this is the solution!
This steps are assuming you have ADB ready and installed!
First, open terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app)
Run the command:
Code:
android update adb
Then you will get a adb_usb.ini file in your $HOME/.android directory. Open that file and you will have the following..
Code:
# ANDROID 3RD PARTY USB VENDOR ID LIST -- DO NOT EDIT.
# USE 'android update adb' TO GENERATE.
# 1 USB VENDOR ID PER LINE.
Add in the 4rth line the following (Device vendor code, this case NVIDIA 0x0955):
Code:
0x0955
Save the file and exit.
On terminal window type
Code:
adb kill-server
and then
Code:
adb start-server
Adb devices should now show up your device!, if by any reason you get "device offline" a re-plug fixed it!
thanks!
damn! bumping this thread, really nothing? I just want to know if anyone can ADB with osx??? Its just me? or what?! thanks
Works fine for me.
OSX is the only OS I've used (so far) to connect to my G-Tablet via ADB.
Make sure USB Debugging is on on the 'pad, and it's Plug and Play. No udev stuff like on Linux, no USB driver issues like on Winhose.
I have had troubles in the past connecting through USB hubs. I'm currently using the front connectors on a Mac Pro.
Just another trivia note on the subject:
adb remount
Works for me on ZPad, it does not on TnT Lite.
I have a hackintosh netbook, but I don't really use it in this space. Nor Windows. Sorry about that.

Unfortunately, there is no sub forum for this device yet so I'm putting it in general. I apologize if this is incorrect.
What (if any) information has anyone found out with with the Toshiba Excite? I've been searching many different forums and so far this is the only helpful piece I found from the Toshiba forums
I ordered an Excite as soon as it is available in the US market. As soon as I unboxed it, my first set was to enable the USB development option and plugged it into the computer. As usual, The ADB device drivers are not released by Toshiba. So I tried to use the same trick I used with THRiVE with stock ADB drivers.
Windows recognized the device but ADB doesn't. Isn't it wonderful? Since then I have been trying to access ADB using the EXCiTE without any success. What is it with Toshiba and ADB Drivers? I talked to the Customer Support and they acted like they had no clue about ADB drivers. So as a developer, the EXCiTE is a was of money.
It would have been salvageable even if Toshiba provided an option to enable ADB via TCP/IP which is trivial to Toshiba and will free them forever from providing a USB driver. But no luck.
So let me say this upfront. If I wanted a tablet that I could not develop Apps for, I would have purchased an iPad as without ADB both are equally useless to an Android Dev.

The Excite has a micro SD card reader and a micro USB built in. This is what I required for my ultimate goal.... I would like to unlock the bootloader and install Windows 8 onto a micro SD card. Then whenever I have the Windows 8 micro SD card inserted into the tablet, the tablet will boot from that first.
The hardware should be able to support it, but software wise will it be able to? If so, how would I get started?
Update from forums.toshiba
hi guys,
i just acheived adb connection to excite. It is not via usb but i can still work with it so i am not worried.
I found out that the adb works without any issues in the linux environment. So, i followed the steps outlined below,
1) enable usb development on excite.
2) plug it into a linux machine with adb working
3) run adb devices
4) we can see the excite listed
5) i executed 'adb tcpip xxxx'. Now the adb in excite is set to run via tcpip
6) now from the development machine execute 'adb connect yyyy:xxxx', where yyyy is the ip address of your excite and xxxx is the port you picked in previous address.
7) voila! Now you have adb working from you windows pc
i hope this helps folks with windows adb
cheers,
windozer

UPDATE (April 4th)
I messaged a Toshiba tech asking if Toshiba planned on releasing tools to unlock the bootloader. He said that he hadn't heard anything. I asked if he would be able to find out for me and this was his response
I can't talk about things that haven't been announced. I know that seems obvious for things like full products or major updates, but I'm not even allowed to comment on new tablet cases if they weren't released yet. It's even more strict with software updates!

You can install the Drivers from here:
http//)singledrivers.blogspot.pt/2014/01/toshiba-excite-pro-usb-driver-for.html
http//)support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?contentId=4001725
I installed them on my Windows XP SP3, and it worked for me!!
Follow the instructions carefully of the 1st site... since the drivers need to be manually installed.
Following the XP instructions...
If you want MTP connection, between step 6 and step 7 you have to select "MTP Device" interface (even if it's not certified!).
If you want ADB connection, between step 6 and step 7 you have to select "ADB Composite..." interface (even if it's not certified!).
NOTE: if you choose ADB simple interface it will not work, and you will have no ADB connection. it has to be the ADB Composite interface!
For some whatever reason I couldn't get them to work simoultaneously, only one at the time... so everytime I wanted to switch from MTP connection to ADB connection (and vice-versa), I had to reassign/reinstall the drivers again on Device Manager...
I am actually following the steps from the pwnieexpress guide to build my own pwn phone, in an attempt to build my own pwn phone. With no malicious intent, I'm trying to build up my pentest skills on the go.
I'm currently on Windows 7 using the android sdk. Fastboot devices manage to return my device but on step 13, my adb devices shows blank in the list of devices.
When I plugged in my wiped out nexus 5, device manager shows the Google nexus adb driver, but I cannot seem to get the adb devices to show my device.
I tried restarting the adb server and reconnecting my device to multiple USB ports but doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas? I've yet to try on a different machine, but could it be a problem with the ports?
Looking forward for any help available.
Don't slam me for asking the obvious, but do you have USB debugging ticked on in the os settings? You may have to go through an update of the android composite adb interface drivers via device manager. Just choose to browse computer, pick from a list, then run the update on each item listed. This doesn't install anything new but does seem to reset drivers. Beyond that, can't help.

Fixed. Seem to be a problem with the usb drives on my home PC, it failed to detect the device during adb devices. Weird, as fastboot seemed to work out well.
I basically installed the drivers in another machine and adb devices and adb push .. /sdcard/ worked just fine.
Thanks!
I'm really having a hard time getting ADB drivers to work on Windows 7 so that I can connect my Android phone to my computer to run some ADB commands. I've tried three different packages; I guess the latest ADB MSI installer and another couple various packages. And I can't get any devices to show up when I type ADB devices. I need something simple if somebody can help treat me like a newbie although I have some experience with Linux and the command prompt but I really need something dead simple that will just install ADB on my computer so I can run a command on my phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

While plenty of people know adb better than I do, I can try to help you where we need to start at the beginning I think, which is to state that there is nothing to "install" on either Android or Windows, other than the one adb.exe executable on Windows.
However, you do need to enable a few options in Android settings.
With that, you can get Windows to talk to Android over adb as shown in my screenshots below, whether over USB or completely over Wi-Fi.
My first question to you to help you is to ask a basic question.
Q: Did you turn on USB debugging in Developer options?
A: ?
Yes I have us debugging on on my Android phone. I've installed USB drivers before on an older phone to allow me to use my Android phone for an internet connection on my PC and it was pretty simple and word flawlessly.
