[Q] Vodafone Joy 845 error with "adb devices"

Hi to all of you,
I bought the Vodafone Joy 845 for testing and development but when i connect that device to my linux box and run from the shell "adb devices", i can't see it.
The devices appears as a cd.
lsusb lists it as vid 12d1, pid 1031 usb_storage device emulating a cd.
What can i do?
Thanks in advance

Is USB debugging enabled? I had issues with Windows 7 and USB adb and now I just use adbWireless (app), that is more comfortable too.

Re
Yes debugging is enabled of course. I'll try your suggestion

install usb-modeswitch

The drivers for windows are inside the joy 845
Simply plug the device using the usb cable, open windows explorer and run setup.exe
(if setup.exe is not visible and u see the contents of the device instead unplug and plug it again. Yes i know it's strange)
After that run again the adb devices command. It may display the device with a questionmark but it's no problem, you can start deploying and debugging
good luck,
Anastasios

anastasie gia su did the fone have gps? and there is any way to install wm?

adb in LINUX
Hi Anastasie,
The problem is not with windows!
I'm talking about adb devices in LINUX.
Anyway
thanks

[Q] Can't install ADB drivers- need help!

I figured it out!
I'm having trouble getting my computer to recognize my phone as an ADB device. I have an HTC EVO, running cyanogen 6.1. I've downloaded the android SDK, as well as several of the SDK components (Google-usb-driver, platform-tools, and several APIs).
When I plug in my phone, my computer would not recognize it as an ADB device, so i removed the drivers from my computer and tried again. I attempted to manually install the drivers from the file (C:\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver) with no luck. I tried going into the amd64 file (I'm running windows 7, 64bit), but my computer would not recognize the drivers.
I'm new to all of this (this is my first post)- any and all help would be greatly appreciated

I am having the same problem with a HTC Hero (Sprint) tried everything but i can't get my pc to regocnize the adb driver

same thing with stratosphere.
I have the same problem with an unrooted samsung stratosphere. I need to install the adb drivers to use the smartdog remote web desktop through usb. The samsung usb drivers are already installed so it won't let me install the adb drivers. What can I do?

Funny I thought I was having problems with ADB cuz I'm on a Mac but it appears you Windows catz are SOL too...WTF is up with ADB not recognizing devices? Somebody should have a fix or some info on this, so frustrating, I just wanna root my damn devices!

had the same issue. here what I did and it worked:
- go to junefabric dot com
- download and install PDANet( 'cause it got adb usb driver in it)
- uninstall PDANet( if you have no use of it. don't worry, adb usb driver doesn't uninstall)

[Q] Hacking the Toshiba Excite

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...

Really need some help installing ADB drivers on Windows 7

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.

Use Android USB Driver as provided by Samung for the phone: the ADB driver you installed is for Google devices!
Enable USB Debugging on phone.

Thank you - I gotta laugh- USB debug must not have survived a reboot-I thought it did. I am good.
