Hi,
After I mod my HTC Magic (32A) 2.1 ROM, I am not able install the ADB USB driver on Windows Vista.
Question is am I still able to use ADB via my Windows Vista after I mod my phone to 2.1 ?
Best Wishes,

have you tried install htc sync?
Sorry... mistake... it actually works ...
I have scoured the internet and xda and have not found a solution. I am trying to unlock my bootloader, so I can install ROMs and whatnot, on my HTC One S. However, the device is not recognized by adb, even though the normal drivers are installed through HTC sync. I cannot install any additional driver through any other way.
Basically, I just need to know if anyone has a solution to getting the HTC One S to recognize with adb on Windows 8, or any alternate way to get a token.
I have done this many times before on windows 7, and even used adb for other devices on Windows 8, but cannot get the One S to read.
..and unfortunately my Windows 7 machine is in need of repair.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Adb still worked after I went from 7 to 8. Uninstall drivers and install android sdk which has required drivers. I've never used HTC sync due to its suckness. You can also google the download for just the drivers without any extra software. There are multiple devices that have adb drivers for download here on xda aswell.
Good hunting
But as far as driver compatibility nothing has changed since the update

the drivers wont work until htc/Microsoft updates them. doesn't work on my windows 8 pro, I had to installed a virtual machine to get it to work with windows 7.
Definitely nofun that the htc drivers seem to be the big issues. Whendid not have trouble with the kindle orsamsung. Did update as much through the sdk, and tried manually installing the win 7 drivers, and more andno luck. So guess Ill be waiting.
Works for me on windows 8 pro....don't know what you are talking about

Thats good to hear that there is a way to get it working. What drivers did you install?
Are you looking for a driver that will work for when you are in bootloader? I used a Samsung driver and it worked fine.

Did this allow detect in adb? not just for windows recognizing the device?
Ive come to find that adb will recognize the device, but not in fastboot mode. Which is the killer, cause thats the only mode I really need it to be recognized in.
I use both ADB and Fastboot on my W8, and never had a problem. Worst case scenario, if you install the drivers but you still have an exclamation mark next to the device in device manager, try and install the Android USB drivers on a W7 machine and copy the files on your W8. Then go to device manager and update the driver, and point to the folder you just copied. This should do.

I've found in some pages that HTC has already uploaded their HTC Sync and that is now compatible with Windows 8. However, still not working for me in 8 Pro.

I've uploaded from W7 to W8 pro and my now I'm not able to find a driver that fits my computer. It's a very strange situation.
I have tried pretty much everything lol, its not worth it if you are installing a RUU then windows 8 suddenly stopped detecting your phone then you have a brick. I would just wait till htc releases drivers for windows 8. or installed windows 7 through VMware, like I did.
Just have the device for 1 day and had some issues. Is there any working solution for this? I've spend some time searching and reading, I tried alot of drivers (HTC, from android-sdk and so on)...with all the same issue. Windows 8 recognizes the device as My HTC BUT...adb doesn't. When issuing "adb devices" command, returned list is blank.
Finally I've installed recovery and unlocked on a Windows 7 machine but I don't want to do that each time I flash a ROM (and I flash alot).
Also short question... I didn't saw anywhere clearly stated but from what I've read, I understood there's no S-Off for One S right? I'm comming from Desire S and everything there was flawless.
It is working on my Windows 8 Pro without an issue. I installed the driver which comes together with the android sdk.
1. Open device manager
2. Select the android device with yellow sign
3. right click and select "Update Driver Software ..."
4. select browse my computer for driver software
5. select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
6. select have disc and browse for the "android_winusb.inf" in the android sdk folder
7. select Android ADB Interface and press next
8. select yes, ...
-> adb driver is installed and device should now work with adb.
Best regards,
dexi

I found my computer recognized my device if u do this, power down ur device than restart ur computer while booting up plug in ur device and sometimes it recognizes it but not always staying connected

I have Windows 8 Pro Media Center, install drive from htc sync manager from htc site, flashing fastboot, oem lock, etc seem to work in cmd. But odd was if i do adb devices, it just say something like "list device" i don't see my device number.. or i should use fastboot devices instead
Try this:

Hi Guys,
I've recently purchased a HTC One XL to replace my Inspire and would like to root the device. I've got a laptop and a desktop, both of which run Win7 x64, after installing HTC Sync, or just the HTC drivers Windows reports the phone as an Unknown Device in the device manager.
I've tried to manually specify the drivers to be used but Windows reports that it is using the best available drivers already.
I have tried searching the forum, and also Googling this, but I've had no luck in a resolution. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I can't seem to connect to my HTC One S via fastboot on Windows 8.1 64-bit. I just downloaded the HTC Sync manager and I believe it also installs the latest HTC drivers. I also have the latest Android SDK Manager with the Google USB drivers installed. I have not installed any API's from the Android SDK Manager, should I?
When I reboot my phone to bootloader and go to Fastboot Windows 8.1 does can not recognize my HTC One S I looked around and found a solution for the HTC One. However I have not tried it with my phone. Does anyone know if it will work without harm? My laptop also has only USB 3.0 slots.

I have no problem with Windows 8.1 recognizing my HTC One S when it is turned on. I can transfer files without problem.
in windows 8.1 fastboot is not working yet. in windows 8 it's ok. i have read somewhere that some people got it worked with usb 3.0 but i am not sure. i don't have a usb 3.0 port on my pc so i cannot test it, but you can do a search.
i have usb3.0 and not working
Asus p8z68-v lx with laterst drivers
Windows 8.1 Pro X64
HTC One S
I ended up using a Windows 7 PC. Too bad because Windows 8.1 is really a great system. Anyway, in my first post I've shared the link to the post that explains how to install USB 3.0 drivers by Intel. They say that the Intel drivers work, however I really don't wanna go through the whole procedure. Whoever does go through it, please share your experience
Um...
It works perfectly...
USB 3.0, Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit.
Have Windows 7 64-bit, and had no issues using adb commands with my M7 HTC One. No matter what, I cannot get the same laptop to recognize my M8 to issue ADB commands. adb devices shows no device. Made sure HTC Sync/Samsung Keis/etc. wasn't installed. Update Android SDK to latest versions. Tried to install the HTC One M8 "Toolkit" and update drivers there.
Any ideas? Not sure if I should be getting the security popup on my phone to trust the PC connection, but that's not happening even though USB Debugging is enabled on the phone. I can provide more information if needed.

I too had trouble getting my M8 drivers to install correctly. When the adb devices command returns nothing that means your drivers aren't installed. Open your device manager in Windows (open start menu then search device manager) and see if under your devices it shows a yellow triangle next to your device. If it does then drivers aren't installed correctly. What I ended up doing was actually installing HTC Sync and HTC Sync manager and allowing it to install drivers for me. Then once it was done uninstalling them. Or you could also manually update the drivers with the Universal adb drivers (they come with the Android SDK). I would install HTC Sync and let it do it's thing though first.That HTC Driver installer program you see in the screenshot below came with the HTC Sync program.

OK, I decided to all out attack this and uninstalled a bunch of stuff from my PC. Plug the phone in and it installed the drivers, prompted (on my phone) to allow debugging and I am all set. Strangest thing as my M7 was working perfectly fine last week. Thanks!
