ADB Access Win x64 (CM10)

Since I can't respond to threads in Developer and I think that this might belong here to answer some folks questions. I have read that a lot of people are having issues with ADB access under Windows x64 using the latest CM10 by h8rift. I found a solution that worked for me and I wish to share it with everyone in case it will work for them. A few critiria:
- Your device is connected via USB cable to your computer
- Your device is listed as "HTC MTP Device" in Windows Device Manager
- When you open a CMD prompt under your Android Directory and type "adb devices", nothing is listed
This is because you have the wrong device drivers installed on your system and it needs to be corrected. This is how I accomplished it.
1. Uninstall the driver completely from your system. This has to be done under the device properties. Under "Action", select "Scan for New Hardware Changes". Your system will see the new device and identify it under "Other Devices" as "One". If Windows tries to install the wrong drivers, you will have to restart all over until the HTC MTP Device driver is completely removed from your system.
2. Install HTC Sync from their website. Once installed, it has to update to the latest version. This is needed to install all additional drivers for SD Card access.
3. HTC One X Drivers will be listed under C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files (default install location).
4. For ADB access, you will need the drivers located here; download appropriate drivers for your Windows flavor. These are the ADB drivers.
5. Download the zip, and extract. Remember the location of the files. Go into Device Manger, find "One" under "Other Devices" and Update Driver Software. Point to the new directory you made and install. The One X will now be listed in Device Manager as "My HTC" under "Android USB Devices"
6. To verify ADB, open a CMD prompt, point to Android directory and type in "adb devices". Your beautiful HTC One X should be listed.
I am not the maintainer of any of these webpages nor can I guarantee that these pages will exist to the end of time. Those of you wishing to have ADB access under Windows for CM10, this worked well for me. I gathered up this information just by doing a quick search in Google and through the forums.
Thank you to h8rift for CM10 and all the hard work he puts into it.

Will try this when I get home! Thanks.

This worked perfectly for me. Thanks man!

HTC One X, CM10-Evita JellyBean, Win7-x64

Not working for me, evertime I scan for hardware changes it tried to install HTC MTP DEVICE, and when I try to update that driver with the new ADB driver, it says it's already installed. Then when I uninstall that driver, I don't see the One devices anywhere, until I scan for hardware changes again, which then repeats the above. What am I doing wrong?

I think I found a fix for that. Let me restart my computer and verify
edit: nope.. nothing so far. mine doesn't even show HTC MTP DEVICE anymore >.>

same i see one when i look for new hardware but it always just auto sets to mtp.

Delete old drivers
The reason for this is that you cannot completely delete existing drivers using device manager. They still exist in the driver store, and are loaded as soon as you scan for hardware changes.
There might be a better way to do this, but here's how I did it:
- uninstall driver in device manager. Don't scan for hardware changes.
- Run a CMD prompt as administrator (right click "Run as Administrator")
- navigate to C:/Windows/system32 which is the location of the driver store
- type pnputil.exe /e
- this will list the drivers that exist in the driver store. They are denoted as oem##.inf
- find the driver that has "HTC Corporation" in the description. Write down the oem##.inf number (ex. oem81.inf)
- type pnputil.exe /d oem##.inf (where ## corresponds to the number of the HTC driver).
This will remove the old driver from the driver store. Now when you scan for hardware changes, it should fail to find a driver and prompt you for a location.
NOTE: I actually had several HTC drivers in the driver store. Its because I've had a few HTC devices over the years. I deleted them all. This may break HTC Sync, I dunno. I don't use it.

Fixed. See post below

For anyone having problems. I finally got it working.
THIS SHOULD BE NO LONGER NEEDED. ROHAN'S NEW AOKP VERSION 2 SHOULD WORK WITH STOCK DRIVERS. IM ASSUMING THIS WILL BE MERGED WITH ANY OTHER AOSP ROMS. IF YOU STILL NEED THIS INFORMATION HOWEVER, I WILL LEAVE IT UP.
1. Uninstall HTC Sync and any HTC sync drivers listed in your "Add/Remove Programs"
2. Delete EVERY driver pertaining to HTC when you run CMD as admin and type "pnputil -e" and then type "pnputil -d oem##.inf" (such as oem13.inf ONLY IF it says HTC or HTC Corporation)
3. Download Deview - 32 bit OR 64 bit, and run as administrator and uninstall ALL disconnected drivers (it won't matter if you uninstall the wrong thing, because it will just reinstall again when you plug in the hardware. make sure your phone IS NOT plugged in)
4. Download ADB drivers 32 bit OR 64 bit. (windows)
**Restart Computer**? (I did just to be safe)
5. Plug in your phone. Go into device manager, and find your device. It should be listed as "One" with a yellow question mark.
6. Right click and update driver software
7. find your USB drivers you downloaded and choose to install those.
your device should now be listed under "Android USB Devices" as "My HTC"
When I did this, my phone skipped being labelled as "HTC MTP Device" all together
If it is not detected in ADB after installing drivers...
1. UNPLUG PHONE
2. Run USBDeview as administrator
3. Uninstall any unplugged devices
4. Restart computer
5. Plug in phone

and to verify it installed (no restart)
I hope this helps someone

What exactly are you trying to do? Did you install HTC Sync drivers? This is for using ADB on the old CM10/AOKP, not for rooting your phone

device is already rooted, I need to get adb working because I can't get my cid from fastboot command.

Boot your phone into fastboot from your bootloader
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda-developers app

i'm in fastboot and type adb shell getprop ro.cid, message says error: device not found. fastboot getvar cid returns CID: none

Found a great way that fixed it for me on Windows 8:
use this tool: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html to remove all instances of anything that has to do with HTC. Then, follow steps above to scan for new devices, and set the driver accordingly (with USB debugging on on the phone). It should register as "My HTC" and then you will be able to see the device in "adb devices" list.

you can't use adb from fastboot. you use fastboot.exe e.g.
fastboot oem getvar cid
no adb needed.

Guys can u pls help me? I've done the above procedure for installing the drivers on my htc explorer, it all worked, in the device manager panel i can see My htc when i'm in fastboot, and i can see Android bootloader Interface when i'm in the bootloader, but nevertheless I can't run adb shell because it doesn't find the device, and when I run adb device it gives me an embty list, i must use adb in order to attemp to recover the nand that it's probably burned.

Note - Java is needed to Run SDK Manager - Install JAVA​
The Reason that you would want to use Android SDK is because its very easy, it's well updated and it just WORKS! There is much more use with HTC devices with adb then with Samsung when it comes to the daily things like splash screens, radio updates, firmware. You will be dealing a lot with the bootloader and fastboot flashing. So to help out, I will post a helpful guide to help you get started for use with the HTC One M8.​

I am aware that USB 3.0 does cause issues with adb, mostly the longer running ones it hangs sometimes, I don't have an answer for that right now, I am running with 2.0 still and I have zero issues.
This is something that I came across that seemed to resolve a lot of adb issues

}
Setup, Preparation and Prerequisites
Open command prompt - Press Window Key + R, type in "cmd" (without the quotes), and hit enter.
USB Debugging - On your nexus player go to Settings > About > Tap on Build number 7 times. This will enable Developer options. Now go back to Settings > Developer options > Enable USB debugging
Enter bootloader mode - Hold the button on the bottom of the device when you plug in the power cable, or enable developer options and "adb reboot bootloader"
Once you are in fastboot mode, the light below nexus player will be blinking constantly. You can verify by using "fastboot devices"
ADB Installation
Download the full Android SDK here (scroll to the bottom of the page>DOWNLOAD FOR OTHER PLATFORMS>SDK Tools Only) or get a slimmed version containing only the essential components here
Extract the zip and place the android-sdk-windows folder on your desktop.
**If you chose to download the slimmed sdk skip to step 5**
Only if you downloaded the full sdk: Go into the android-sdk-windows folder and run SDK Manager.exe. Install the following packages (there are a total of 4 packages):
- Tools > Android SDK Tools, Android SDK Platform-tools
- Extras > Android Support Library, Google USB Driver
Only if you downloaded the full sdk: Go back into the android-sdk-windows directory, and you should see a new folder named platform-tools. If you don't see this new folder, repeat the step above.
To confirm that it is indeed working, open a command prompt window and enter the following commands:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
adb version
If it displays "Android Debug Bridge version x.x.xx" it is working. If it is gives an error saying that adb is not a recognized command, it has not been successful. Carefully repeat the steps above if this is the case. Close the command prompt window when you are done.
Show File Extensions - Open a command prompt window and run "Control folders" (without the quotes). Go to the View tab and uncheck the "Hide extensions for known file types" option. This will help avoid confusion when renaming files.
Backup (Optional) - Unlocking the bootloader will completely wipe all data from the device. This includes apps, settings and even the contents of the internal storage (pictures, music, etc.). Copy all important files off the nexus player onto a PC or upload them to a cloud.
Driver Installation
Go to Device Manager, find the Android device, and select Update Driver Software.
Select Browse my computer for driver software
Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Selecting show all devices
Clicking have disk
Finally selecting Desktop\android-sdk-windows\extras\google\usb_driver\android_winusb.inf as the driver
Alternative you can also download and install the Universal ADB Driver.

Information
Rooting this device is actually quite a simple and easy process. Before you begin, it is recommended that you at least try to understand what each part of the process will do. Although this guide will elongate each step in order to show all of the details, the method used can be broken up into 2 main steps: Unlocking the Bootloader and Rooting. Each new step relies on the previous step to have been completed, and a basic summary of each part is:
Unlocking Bootloader: Opens the door to the internal memory of the device to be written on to. This allows you to flash images onto the main partitions of the device in future.
Rooting: You can gain root booting up root.img
1. Unlocking Bootloader
Turn the nexus player off. Then go into bootloader mode by holding the button on the bottom of the device when you plug in the power cable, or enable developer options and "adb reboot bootloader"
Plug nexus player into your PC, then open a command prompt window and type:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
Code:
fastboot devices
This command will list the connected devices. If your nexus player serial number shows up you are good to go and may continue. If the nexus player is NOT listed this indicates that your drivers are not installed correctly. In order for you to continue you must fix your drivers so that your phone is listed under fastboot devices.
If the nexus player has been recognized by the command above, proceed to unlocking the bootloader with the following command:
Remember that this step will wipe EVERYTHING off the phone
OEM unlock twice
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
After you have done, please proceed onto the next section of the guide.
2. Installing a Custom Recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-touch-recovery-t3114717
https://twrp.me/devices/asusnexusplayer.html
3. Rooting
Now that your nexus player has an unlocked bootloader, now this step is to gain root
Android 7.X
- coming soon -
Android 6.X
Require: TWRP, Custom boot.img and flashable supersu
(Refer to above link)
Android 5.0
Warning: This rooting guide is for Android 5.X only!
Boot (not flash) the root image which will give you root with the stock ROM
Confirm that you have downloaded the SuperSU zip from the downloads section above and you have extracted it and it is located in the platform-tools folder inside of the android-sdk-windows folder on your desktop.
Make sure the nexus player is in bootloader mode
Open a command prompt window and run the following commands:
Code:
cd Desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools
Code:
fastboot boot root.img
This will install SuperSU on your device, once the command has completed continue.
Open SuperSU and update the binaries.
Keep in mind that the first boot may take longer than usual.
Congrats! Your nexus player now has an unlocked bootloader, and is rooted.
==================================================
How to flash factory image for Nexus Player?
1) Download image file for your nexus player - https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
2) Boot your Nexus device into fastboot mode.
3) On your computer, use 7zip to extract the .tgz file you downloaded from the Android Developer website. Use 7zip a second time to extract the .tar file you extracted from the .tgz. When you’re done, you should have a folder with several files in it.
4) Copy all of these files and paste them in the platform-tools folder in the Android SDK on your computer. If you followed the above tutorial, this should be under the C drive, then under Program Files (x86) on Windows. Linux users, you know where you put it.
5) If you have not already done so, connect your Nexus device to your computer. ADB and Fastboot commands should already work at this point if you’ve been following along.
There are two flash-all files. If you’re in Windows, you’ll want to double click the one that has the gear logo and says “Windows Batch File” on the right. If you’re on Linux, you’ll want to double click the flash-all.sh.
At this point a box should pop up and you should see the installation taking place. While this is going on, do not unplug your device for any reason. Let it do its thing.
6) Once the installation process as finished, your device will automatically reboot and you can now safely disconnect your device from your computer.

Nice guide.
What about installing BusyBox?

I have a USB OTG cable but the adapter is female on the available USB side...I am not sure how to go about connecting my laptop/PC to the NP in order to perform ADB commands. Do I need a special cable or is there another way?

Don't use the USB OTG cable, use a micro USB cable (same kind of cable that comes with android phones)

I cannot believe I missed that, how embarrassing. Thanks for the response, now I can follow this guide. I was thinking too hard about the OTG cable being a necessary piece of the puzzle.

I am able to get to the bootloader with no problems, I've got ADB and Fastboot installed on my PC, as well as the drivers. However ADB doesn't pick up my NexusPlayer even though fastboot does. Thoughts?
See Attachments
EDIT: Nevermind, I was expecting different responses from adb/fastboot. When in the bootloader adb will not confirm a connection, only fastboot. Sorry for being a noob...

I could be mistaken, but when you're in the bootloader you're going to use FASTBOOT and not ADB commands. So therefore the command should be "fastboot devices" instead of "adb devices"?

AFAIK ADB is for Android, and Fastboot is for bootloader.
But i have the oposite problem. Mine NP is getting recognized useing ADB when normaly booted, but when i am in fastboot mode, fastboot isent working. I get no output when run 'fastboot devivces'. I have both tried to set the NP in fastboot mode by using the hiod button and plug in power, and with adb rebbot bootloader.
Any one have a clue why adb works, but not fastboot?

Double check to see if you have the latest version of fastboot. I have read that if you don't have the most up to date version the NP is not recognized.

Have you re-installed the Google driver when you are booted in the bootloader? The driver needs to install twice: once when booted into Android, and once when booted into the bootloader

ADB fastboot for Mac Quick Question??
Hey guys does anyone have any idea on how this can be done on a Mac....I know I know. When I initially plug in my Nexus player with the micro usb, nothing happens on my mac or the Nexus so i am guessing that the drivers are not installed. How would i go about getting these for the Mac? I have already downloaded the slim version of the ADB and Fastboot files with the platform tools into a folder on my desktop named Andriod, so i have these already. And i know that if you hold the button down on the nexus and plug the power in it brings up the bootloader screen. I just need help with the commands in terminal and where to access the drivers from. Also, on the Nexus the Developer options have already been enabled and USB debugging has been turned on. If anyone can help, It would be much appricated! Just started to use terminal commands so yes i am a noob in this department . Thanks agin in advance.

Hey Sleepy2, I just did a brief read through and it states this:
Set up your system to detect your device.
If you're developing on Windows, you need to install a USB driver for adb. For an installation guide and links to OEM drivers, see the OEM USB Drivers document.
If you're developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step.
If that is the case, what would you suggest doing next? Thanks again for helping!

Open a terminal, navigate to the directory where you downloaded fastboot and go ahead with the commands shown in the first post. You will probably have to add a "./" in front of the commands given that you are on a mac, e.g.,
Code:
fastboot devices
becomes
Code:
./fastboot devices

I seem to be having the same problem as goxboxlive. I have tried installing the drivers about 100x tried on several computers and rebooted many a time. The only thing I can think of from the posts in here was to update fastboot but I dled the android studio and I would assume that has the latest version in there? Otherwise I couldn't find somewhere to download just fastboot from. Any help or recommendations or where I can dl the latest fastboot?

Follow up. Got it to work. In the guide it says after booting into fastboot to type "adb devices" in the console. You should instead type "fastboot devices" to see if you have the correct drivers and then go on from there. This worked for me, hopefully it will help someone else too.

I could be mistaken, but when you're in the bootloader you're going to use FASTBOOT and not ADB commands. So therefore the command should be "fastboot devices" instead of "adb devices"?

OPO not recognized in ADB Devices

Hey guys, I've long had this issue with my OnePlus One and I for the life of me cannot figure it out after searching and reading mad threads/forums.
Computer OS: Windows 7 x64
Problem: OnePlus One NOT RECOGNIZED under command > adb devices.
So I'm following all the instructions possible step by step. I have my OPO in Recovery (TWRP 2.8.6.0) and it won't show up as an ADB Devices...
Yet, noting key parameters here:
- All my drivers are up to date
- My Android SDK is up to date

- Java SE is up to date
FastBoot - Phone is recognized (picture below).
ADB Sideload Mode in TWRP Recovery - ADB Sideload recognizes OPO, but doesn't work still.
But standard ADB is not listed when Recovery is on main page. But I get this prompt whenever the phone boots into recovery or I plug it in via USB when Recovery is active.
This is my command prompt to prove FastBoot recognizes my device, but ADB does not.
What am I doing wrong? Can someone help me? I've noticed this issue as long as I can remember, and have resorted to always having to copy my ROM files through the OS, doing a factory reset, then installing. I have never been able to use ADB Push.
Can someone provide me some pointers?
Thanks!!!

do you have debugging enabled on the phone, and if you do, have you authorized that computer on the phone? (I guess you have already, but just throwing out some ideas you might have forgotten)

Firstly, uninstall all the drivers for your OPO from device manager and restart the system
Now, follow this link to install drivers >> http://www.technobuzz.net/install-oneplus-one-usb-drivers-windows/
After this, install adb and fastboot files >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Even I have Android SDK installed on my system for developing apps, however, I used above steps to ensure that my system recognises my OPO

Thanks Mr. Hoax! I will give that a try and report back.
Interestingly in an attempt to use ADB Sideload to install the latest ROM update from scratch, I took a gamble and did a full format/wipe and was able to install the OS using ADB SideLoad. But afterwards, it still didn't come up under ADB Devices...But will try your recommendations and see what happens.

Yessir, Debugging was enabled through the OS (I don't know of any other way to enable debugging?)

Hey Mr. Hoax. I tried those steps, uninstalled every driver I could associate with any of my Android devices (have an HTC One as a backup) and sadly, ADB is still not recognizing my OPO when I enter "ADB Devices".
However, I still get the Windows prompt. Any clue?

After drivers installation is done, you need to reboot your OPO in bootloader(fastboot) mode and type
fastboot devices
And check out if the prompt shows your device serial number.

I see you're using the nexus driver. Perhaps try a Samsung ADB driver. It works with my phone without problems.

I get the same problem with my work PC, while everything works fine at home.
What CSquared4290 says, applies here:
Computer OS: Windows 7 x64
Problem: OnePlus One NOT RECOGNIZED under command > adb devices.
- All my drivers are up to date
- My Android SDK is up to date
The phone is recognised normally under command > fastboot devices.
Symantec Endpoint Protection is running at my work PC. Could this be a reason?

100% agree with the other posters, really delete all of your old USB ADB drivers, including the Google USB driver. Here's a tool I use for that: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
Install Samsung ADB drivers, then when you plug your OPO in you should be able to see it in Device Manager as "Android Device" don't let Windows pick the driver. Right click and pick the browse my computer for drivers, then find the Samsung Android ADB Interface, install that. Unplug your phone, then plug it back in...profit? Good luck!

From my OnePlus X rooting guide. It looks like you need to install the universal adb driver linked in #2 and follow the steps in #3.
If you cannot get the connection to work:
1. Check your USB connection, then verify that Android debugging is enabled in settings and that your computer’s RSA fingerprint has been authorized.
2. Still not working? Open Device Manager in Windows and make sure that you don’t have a yellow exclamation point next to something like “Android Device” or “One.” This would indicate a driver problem that must be resolved. Try re-installing the Universal Android ADB Driver for Windows, and make sure to restart your computer. Once you’ve rebooted, if you still have a yellow triangle, right-click on the device and select “Update Driver Software,” then “Search automatically for updated driver software.”
3. If you still have a yellow exclamation point, then try forcing the driver to install:
In Device Manager, right-click on the device and select “Update Driver Software.”
Select “Browse my computer for driver software”
Select “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”
Select “ADB Interface” from the list
Select manufacturer “Google”
Select “Android Testing Interface Version xxx”
Click “Next.” If you get a warning, select “Yes” to continue and wait for the driver to install properly.

Micromax Bharat 1 is a feature phone with 4G VoLTE capability at extremely low cost.
Below are its basic specs:
Runs on Snapdragon 200.
Has a custom-made Android KitKat 4.4.4 based rom with a minimalist UI.
Has a 240x320 resolution display.
2000mAH battery.
Basic Notes:
To get into recovery mode: '*' + Power on
To get into fastboot mode: '#' + Power on
What will you find in this thread?
To enable adb and installation of apps from unknown sources.
To obtain root privileges.
Discussion and more ideas worth exploring
To enable installing from unknown sources and to enable adb, follow the instructions below.
Make sure you have installed all the necessary drivers.
Download and extract everything from the attachment to a folder.
Turn off your device.
Put it in fastboot mode and connect to your PC.
Once you can confirm that the device is correctly recognized, open up a powershell (Shift + Right click) in the extracted folder. (Or a terminal if you are using linux based distro).
Type in the following:
Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot boot recovery_V407.img
Your device will now reboot to recovery. The recovery I have provided is not complete. So you will not be able to do much with it on the device. However adb works. So let's continue.
Type in the following code to enable adb
Code:
adb shell
mount system
echo '' >> /system/build.prop
echo '# Enable ADB (By Ravikirancg)' >> /system/build.prop
echo 'persist.service.adb.enable=1' >> /system/build.prop
echo 'persist.service.debuggable=1' >> /system/build.prop
echo 'persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb' >> /system/build.prop
reboot
This should reboot your device.
Once you are back in the interface of your phone, you should be able to see an icon on the status bar indicating adb. Just press the left soft key and then notifications.
Now click on the notification about adb. This should take you to the hidden Developer Settings which you could not access earlier.
Scroll down and click on "Revoke USB debugging authorisations".
Turn off Debugging and back on. This should prompt a dialogue box that asks you for providing debugging authorisations. Tick always allow and then on OK. (Enter something like 'adb devices' on the powershell if required.)
Type in 'adb devices' in powershell and it should show your devices id and then 'device' instead of 'unauthorised'
Congrats! You have now enabled android debugging on Micromax Bharat 1.
Now using this, let us enable installing apks from unknown sources. To do that follow the steps below:
Type in
Code:
adb shell settings put global install_non_market_apps 1
That's it! Go ahead and install an apk file that you downloaded from the internet or sent from another phone. You will now be able to do it.
Do note that even though you can install any app you want, it is really difficult to navigate in the app as most are not designed for non-touch screen phones. Apps like share it does work well though.
Going further, if you wish to root your phone, you will need to download the latest installation zip file, extract everything and push the su binary to its place manually. And the install the apk using adb.
Well that's it for now! Go ahead and let me know what you wish to do further! Happy Hacking!

Read the OP correctly. You are not supposed to do that. You are in fastboot only to modify the build prop and thus enable adb. To enable unknown sources, you need to be booted up into the rom and then have adb enabled.
