Strange behaviour of 51-android.rules file - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been scratching head all evening trying to solve this, with no luck.
I've added the following lines to the /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4ee2", MODE="0600", OWNER="paul"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4ee0", MODE="0600", OWNER="paul"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4ee1", MODE="0600", OWNER="paul"​When I run adb devices, it looks OK
List of devices attached
07c082820f1e64c0 device​And lsusb | grep Google finds the device (although it is identified as a Nexus 4 for some reason)
Bus 001 Device 105: ID 18d1:4ee2 Google Inc. Nexus 4 (debug)​Finally, ls -Rl /dev/bus/usb/001/105 indicates
crw-rw----+ 1 paul audio 189, 104 Nov 11 00:13 /dev/bus/usb/001/105​
But, when I set the phone to bootloader mode by running adb reboot bootloader, and run fastboot devices, I get an empty line.
When I run fastboot flashall -w, I get
< waiting for device >​When I run lsusb, the Google line is no longer displayed.
Also, I see in the /var/log/syslog that the Google device is added when I boot the phone, and is removed when I change to fastboot mode.
On reboot:
Nov 11 00:13:03 LENOVO-W541 kernel: [ 2807.950990] usb 1-2: Product: AOSP on HammerHead

Can anyone help? I can't even do something as basic as flashing a new image to the phone.
Paul

Try
Code:
sudo fastboot devices

Found the problem (I think). Seems to be a stupid USB cable problem.
At work, with phone in fastboot/bootloader mode:
$ lsusb | grep Google
Bus 001 Device 098: ID 18d1:4ee0 Google Inc.​There seems to be a bug, because in normal mode, the same command gives:
Bus 001 Device 100: ID 18d1:4ee2 Google Inc. Nexus 4 (debug)​At home, in fastboot mode this command gives nothing, just an empty line.
Similarly, at work, in fastboot mode:
$ fastboot devices
07c082820f1e64c0 fastboot​The same command at home gives:
<waiting for device>​
All with the same phone and laptop, just different cables.

After creating rules, did you reload them? either by rebooting or using udevadm?
What distro are you on?

beekay,
Yes, I had reloaded the rules, using sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
Ubuntu 14.04. problem solved, as I indicated above.

[Q] Ubuntu 11.04 in VirtualBox on Win7 host - can't access Infuse using adb

I am trying to set up an Ubuntu environment using VirtualBox on my Win7 host but I'm unable to pass my USB-connected Infuse through from the host to Ubuntu. Running adb devices from Ubuntu just outputs "List of devices attached" with no devices listed (my Infuse DOES show when running this out of my Win7 host).
I followed these directions here to set up my udev rules,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=570452g
using the below settings in my /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules file but I'm not able to ever see my Infuse when executing the adb command:
1st failed try:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04E8", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"
2nd failed try:

3rd failed try:
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="80ee", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0021", MODE="0666", OWNER="<your user name>" #Debug Samsung Infuse 4G
I got these various Vendor and Product IDs by hovering over the "SAMSUNG_Android [0400]" USB Device Filter (after clicking the green '+' button in the USB section of the Settings menu in VirtualBox:

VirtualBox hover over Unknown device 04E8:6877 [0400] when in Kies mode:

I got the settings for the 3rd try after running lsusb and getting this output:

A lot of devices actually share the same device id (in this case the 4e22). I say just follow the directions and just use the vendor id to manage permissions (in this case 18d1 for samsung).
http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html
Download mode, charging mode, recovery, etc... can all have different usb Device IDs

That wouldn't work, because 04e8 is not samsung's vendor id. 18d1 is samsung's vendor id. Also, there is no group called "<plugdev>", but there is a group called "plugdev".
I'm saying: Change your udev entry to:
Code:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", MODE="0660", OWNER="plugdev", GROUP="plugdev"
Remove the usb device and run this:
Code:
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
Then plug in your device again. This will have you covered for any samsung device.
If it still doesn't work, make sure you are in the plugdev group:
Code:
groups YOURUSERNAME
If you don't see plugdev in there, add yourself to plugdev.
Code:
sudo adduser YOURUSERNAME plugdev
Logout and login again.
You should be golden.

Thank you. I did exactly as per your instructions, step-by-step. No errors. Everything did as I'd expect. No change, however.
The problem is: If my computer is seeing my phone as a Nexus, I fear that the One-Click for the Galaxy S 4G will not work.
I've tried multiple ports, but always the same. (( With the phone in download mode, it's not listed in lsusb AT ALL; but if it is booted into Recovery or Android OS, it's at least detected as a Nexus.....))
What better ROM to be stuck with than a Cyanogenmod ROM?!

Well, I took another stab at this today. Actually 18d1 is the Google vendor ID according to that link (http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html) and the Samsung is 04e8.
This has to be, because I've done it several times with this phone and have added that sequence to udev on quite a few occassions.
Before all of this began lsusb would, in fact show the correct "ID 04e8 - Samsung Electronics, Inc."
I think I'll keep stabbing away at udev until something breaks or I find the solution.
Thank you.

Try just using what I have, granted using your username instead of mine, then do the reload rules with udevadm again.

Here are the only two files I ever really flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498.
The only one I most recently flashed bootloaders for was the " AntonX-Basic_with_a_twist-v1.1.0-OC_UV.jar ".
I flash the stock rom first, boot into Android, reboot into DL Mode, then flash the AntonX kernel, let it boot into Android, then reboot back into download mode and flash Bootloaders.
.... which has worked plenty of times before. (I only wonder if I'm over-doing it..)
How would I go about finding what bootloader(s) are currently active or in use?
Wouldn't that be ./adb reboot bootloader?
(By the way, I did what you said, completely replacing mine with yours, appending octopus as the owner, save&exit, then sudo udevadm control --reload-rules ...no change.)
EDIT: I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!
I thought about it...what is it that interfaces with the computer? Mass Storage.
I went into Clockworkmod and formatted the sdcard. VICTORY!
"Bus 002 Device 021: ID 04e8:681c Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd Galaxy Portal/Spica/S"
HOWEVER.......... now the plot thickens.
I'm unable to get out of recovery. IN recovery, I can adb devices and my phone is listed. Rebooting to download mode... Devices is BLANK.
SO... now it won't boot into any OS. ALSO, booting into the one-click, my device consistently shows as disconnected.
I've tried different ports. When I put a ROM onto my sdcard and try to flash, I get the following error: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

[Q] Fastboot, how to check if it works?

Hi all, my Infinity is running on CWM and the CROMI. Just to make sure I have a safety net, I am trying to get access with fastboot to the device. Originally I have installed the CWM by dd'ing the image on the device itself. All the PC systems I have access to are running Linux, so Windows is no option for me.
I have the fastboot binary for Linux and my other Android device -a HTC HD2- can be accessed via fastboot. This makes me believe the PC side of the story is ok. Now, when I start my Infinity with the Volume minus key pressed, then hit Volume minus two more times and then Volume plus, there is a message saying "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol". The device is not recognized from my PC though. I checked with
Code:
fastboot devices
.. and simply nothing happens. The command returns without any message or error. When I plug into USB, this are the log messages:
Code:
kernel: [11222.200068] usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 14 using ehci_hcd
kernel: [11222.286798] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0b05, idProduct=4daf
kernel: [11222.286808] usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
kernel: [11222.286814] usb 1-1.3: Product: Fastboot
kernel: [11222.286818] usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
[11222.286823] usb 1-1.3: SerialNumber: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
mtp-probe: checking bus 1, device 14: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.3"
mtp-probe: bus: 1, device: 14 was not an MTP device
Here comes my question. What do I have to expect on the screen of the Infinity when fastboot is active? Is "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol" ok? Taken literally this does not imply it's ready to be used. Do the log messages look ok?
I additionally have tried to enhance my udev rules file. There are a lot of descriptions all over the place, unfortunately they are contradicting in places. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks!
The message that the fastboot protocol had started was the only thing I ever saw happen on the screen. The rest is in the terminal/command line window.
-that recently remarked that the manufacturer's code was no longer necessary (from JB bootloaders and onwards). You might need to add it in your case. <?> (I always forget what it is, but you can most easily look it up in the recovery flashing threads (esp. the CWM ones). "-i ..."

Thanks for replying. Well, maybe I was overly sensitive here because it was not working. However, the message on the Infinity says it's "starting" and not that it "has started".
Encouraged by your reply I tried something different. Instead of trying to check with the "devices" command, I simply tried to re-flash the recovery. To my amazement and pleasure it simply worked Now I feel prepared for any flashing adventure the future may bring! On a lighter note, I find it strange that the devices command doesn't work. To me that seemed to be the most "harmless" command to check the fastboot setup. My HD2 also reacts different on the devices command.
Bottom line, the fastboot devices command seems not to be suitable to do the check I wanted. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for supplying your udev rules. I adjusted mine following your example. Still shows nothing with the devices command. Also for flashing I have to supply the manufacturer code, which I have read somewhere wouldn't be needed any more. Anyway, flashing recovery works for me now, and that's what I wanted to achieve.

Ubuntu 12.04 fastboot no devices ASUS MemoPad

After building a system image to root the ASUS MemoPad FHD 10, I am fed up with having to wait almost 15 minutes for Windoze to boot up and shut down so I can run fastboot to flash the image file. So, I've been on a quest to get adb and fastboot working with Ubuntu so I don't have to deal with stupid Windoze.
Using lnusb, tablet has different vendor:device ids when regular booted and usb debug on (adb mode) and when bootloader/recovery booted with fastboot waiting for command.
Tablet mounts using 'go-mtpfs' so I can work with internal/external SDcards.
Tablet displays with 'adb devices' (normal boot) as Medfield9A65CCEC (also shows this with Windoze fastboot devices)
Tablet doesn't display with 'fastboot devices' (bootloader/recovery boot)
51-android.rules file to recognize both vendor ids:
Code:
# ASUS MemoPad FHD 10 32Mb
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b05", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev", OWNER="Me" # MTP mode with USB debug on
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR(idVendor}=="8087", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev", OWNER="Me" # fastboot mode
Tried downloading a different fastboot binary, same results.
At this point I am stumped why adb works but fastboot does not. fastboot works fine in Windoze.
More Info
After some more research, I found this:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/i386/android-tools-fastboot/filelist
which shows a rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d/70-android-tools-fastboot.rules
so I looked in /lib/udev/rules.d and found the rules file: 51-android-rules.rules with loads of entries
and not /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android-rules.rules as most discussions refer to
so I modified the ASUS section to this:
Code:
# Asus MemoPad FHD 10 (Intel)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b05", ATTR{idProduct}=="521f", SYMLINK+="android_adb"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="8087", ATTR{idProduct}=="09ef", SYMLINK+="android_fastboot"
#SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b05", MODE="0660", GROUP="adbusers"
#SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="8087", MODE="0660", GROUP="adbusers"
If I comment out the first two lines and use #3&4 syslog shows an error - udevd[3982]: specified group 'adbusers' unknown
If I use the first two lines and comment out #3&4 (as shown above) syslog shows:
Code:

Dec 20 14:45:48 mtp-probe: bus: 2, device: 11 was not an MTP device
There are no errors, so the rules file in /lib/udev/rules.d and not /etc/udev/rules.d is being used
Also interesting is that lsusb shows:
Bus 002 Device 011: ID 8087:09ef Intel Corp.
...which is a different Vendor ID
However, even with the correct rules file set and no syslog errors on USB connect, fastboot still refuses to recognize the device when connected in fastboot mode.
I have also tried fastboot i 0x8087 reboot and fastboot -sMedfield9A65CCEC reboot and it just waits for device.
It may be possible that fastboot doesn't like the Intel and is looking for ARM, not sure - although Windoze version of fastboot works fine.
On Archlinux I have the same problem
sudo adb devices works, fastboot fails with <Waiting for device>
but in fastboot mode nothing works at all
Same problem in Ubuntu 14.04 for Kindle Fire
I know this thread has been dormant for a while, but it's pretty much the only hit that comes up when searching on how to setup the /lib/udev/rules.d/70-android-tools-fastboot.rules to get device to mount in fastboot properly.
I had followed some other guides like the OP that said to put rules in the /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android-devices.rules which didn't work at all. I do not have a file /lib/udev/rules.d/51-android-devices..rules
I am having issues similar to the OP with a Kindle Fire Gen2. Device shows up when in Adb mode, but not in fastboot (using factory "fastboot" cable).
Was there ever a resolution to this issue?
Anybody have a source of documentation on how these config files need to be set up when in fastboot mode to gain access and/or get a trusted connection in MTP?

understanding if fastboot is enabled on mi a3 with broken screen

Hi *,
I hava a xiaomi mi a3 with broken screen, i already rooted and enable debugging previous of the broken.
Now i would use scrcpy but adb listing my device as unhautorized.
I see in other post that i need to copy the key on /android/data/..., but i unable because adb shell does not work, so i read that entering in fastboot mode i able to copy the files without key.
So i powered off the phone and restart with volume up+power and i see this on my syslog

I tryed to run adb but it seems always recognized it as unhautorized, fastboot devices command instead does not report any output:

if the phone starts in normal mode instead on the syslog i see this

so seems that product, vendor and device id is different.
Could someone confirm that the first id, of product vendor and device is fastboot device?
There is a method to solve this impasse?
Thanks a lot to all
so the vendor product and device is different
Fastboot gets enabled by default when an Android device boots up, unless manufacturer ( e.g. Samsung ) decided not to support Fastboot. But Xiamomi devices support Fastboot, AFAIK.
FYI: Fastboot isn't a device you can find in /dev/block, it's a software that allows to operate on Android device's bootloader.

Hi and thanks for the answers, but I think that Linux discover fastboot device with different product vendor and device id respect normal boot. I would know why fastboot command does not discover my device, I suspect, because my screen on device is broken, that device not start in fastboot mode and I ask to group what kind of product device and vendor I'd you seen for your xiaomi mi a3 device under syslog or lsusb in fastboot mode.
Yes
Code:
sudo ./fastboot devices
returns
Code:
<SERIAL_ID> fastboot
but that's NOT AN ANDROID DEVICE, IT'S THE DEVICE'S BOOTLOADER connected to, and nothing else.
If the output is shown as above listed, then Fastboot-mode is enabled/activated and working.
