USB Drivers are let your PC communicate with your device.
If you are executing some ADB Commands, you will need USB Drivers installed which will let the ADB server on your PC communicate with the ADB client on your device. If there are no USB Drivers installed on your PC, you will not be able to perform activities on your device via the PC.
First of All I would recommend you to install Universal ADB Driver Installer.The Universal ADB Driver installer detects your phone and installs the ADB drivers for it.This tool developed by drsmart is your solution to the “device not found” error you might get on executing ADB commands.

MORE DEVICES WILL BE UPDATED
Thanks for the info. I tried the univ adb driver installer but it showed I already had the right driver installed. Windows explorer can see my phone but other apps like HTC Sync or myphoneexplorer can't. This only happened after I rooted & installed a new rom. Maybe the rom is faulty...

No access to USB debug
I give up and need some professional help...Ya both kinds.
Here we go, I have the Galaxy 3 d2att I747
Rooted
I was running CM 10.2 with latest nightly, I think 20131208 and decided to update to CM11 via my Cyanogenmod updater but before I did I had read somewhere I should change from CWM recovery to TWRP so I downloaded Goomanager and updated to the TWRP version for my phone then went for the KitKat update and thats when the trouble began.
I am now stuck in a boot loop even if I try to boot into TWRP all I get is the TWRP boot logo then straight into boot loop again. I am almost positive I did a factory wipe as well as cache/dalvik.
Not being able to use TWRP to get into recovery I thought I would just use Odin but I can't get any of my laptops to recognize the phones USB, I just get the windows usb driver error and have tried to install the drivers manually via device manager using my samsung 7 chronos with windows 8.1 and my acer with windows 7. I updated drivers using Samsung Kies and from the website, no luck.
I also ventured into an area that I have no expertise in but I guess thats how we learn so I downloaded the Android SDK thinking I could use it to download and install the google USB drivers that way, but I can't get out of boot loop to make sure USB debugging is checked. The only thing I can access is the stock download mode which would be great if I could use the USB connection.
What am I missing? Any suggestions?
USB Not Recognized Error
I noticed that my phone suddenly stopped being recognized on both my Windows 7 and Win8 laptops. I have been trying to fix it with the drivers but to no avail. However, I plugged my phone in with a different USB cord and voila it was recognized and working. Maybe this could possibly be a simple fix.
My computer stopped recognizing my Skyrocket
Hi Everyone,
I also am having trouble with my win 7 computer recognizing my Skyrocket suddenly. I have been using several KitKat roms and they have been working just fine, except for some reported bugs that the CM devs are working on. I even was able to connect to the computer and explore both my internal and external drives. Then suddenly that stopped and the computer gave me a need to get drivers warning. I've tried to download drivers from Samsung and the computer says they are already installed. I also tried the universal driver download and got the same message. Any help would be appreciated. Like the others on this forum, I wouldn't be able to odin if I got in trouble.
Thanks for your concideration,
drewfs7270
I switched to a different rom and now it's working again !

Also, any mobile manufacturer website has guides or direct downloads for drivers. Otherwise uni drivers suffice.....

soft brick
I face bad experienced, the tablet can not boot ( after install TWRP ) but enable to enter the fastboot mode and can be detected by the computer as android adb interface but adb can't communicated with the tablet. (list of devices atached)
I do have a backup file ( I make it before soft brick, I make backup using dd command, because I don't have cwm/twrp recovery ).... but how to flash it ? Tablet chipset is wonder media 8980 OS android 4.2.2
I can not flash it by adb/fastboot.
Maybe someone here can give me a little guide for how to....
I really appreciate for your kindness
Hey, I made an expirience, which might help other users as well.
I have a Sony device (Z1C) and use Windows 10, maybe this will help for other brands and for other Windows 10 users.
I installed drivers for my device and was able to use adb. When I put the phone into fastboot mode, it was not recognized anymore. I found out, Sony has a seperate (updated, maybe?) driver for fastboot mode. When I tried to install this, the driver was not signed and Windows refused to install it. However, you can enter the UEFI (successor of BIOS) and enable installation of unsigned drivers (at own risk). Then I was able to install the fastboot driver and controll my phone in fastboot mode as well as in adb mode.
In conclusion: You might think you installed drivers, because you did, but maybe you did not.
Even on LineageOS page, many people fail to mention that, you DON'T and SHOULDN'T install any generic or universal ADB driver if you have Samsung device. As you can just install Samsung USB Drivers officially from Samsung site. Samsung USB Drivers already contain ABD interface driver just fine so Universal ADB driver is redundant for Samsung phones.
So the only way to root is by unlocking bootloader? I'm trying to save some files/media off my device but cant get my windows 8.1 machine to recognize my one plus one as an MTP device. I've tried different drivers, I can see it listed in adb devices. Any suggestions?
Yes the only way to root is by unlocking your bootloader. Check your drivers.
Hi,
I've been trying to flash a non-carrier firmware for my new Xperia Z5 but have had 0 luck - every time I get to the point where I need to connect the Xperia Z5, flashtool tells me I need to install the drivers - I've installed the drivers from the Driver folder in flashtool, and other than that I have no idea what to do.
I never had such issues with the Z3.
Anyone else had this problem? Can you share how you got past it, or where you found this magical driver?
Thanks
Did the drivers actually install? Initially, I would get install failed in my windows 10 box because the drivers are unsigned.

I really can't remember if there was any kind of pop up when i first connected the Z5 to my pc. Is there a manual way to install it? I assume they were installed when I installed PC Companion.
The path is: *:\Flashtool\drivers\Flashtool-drivers.exe
You need to deactivate drive signature enforcement by the way.
Do you have pc companion installed? It has the drivers needed.
When u connect your phone in flash mode the driver will install automatically.
By the way which windows do you have?
Well, I have pc companion installed and flashtool still says i have no drivers installed. Windows 10

Most probably you have to start windows in a mode that allows unsigned drivers installation.
Click restart button while holding shift key, choose troubleshoot, then advanced options, then startup settings and then press F7 (disable driver sign enforcement)
Edit: just to clarify a few things. You might have the Sony pc companion installed, make sure you connect at least once your device though and the connection works, such as have it backup your settings for instance.
Other than that, from flashtool's drivers only need to install the first 2 if I remember correctly, the android fastboot and the internal flashtool driver as well.

Hey i have a problem with my OP6,
I rooted my phone and relocked the bootloader.
I failed.
Got the message that my phone is corrupted and won't boot. Now i'm stuck in the bootloader. I can't power off and I can't boot into recovery (TWRP in my case) or into OxygenOS. I tried to unbrick it. But windows refuses to use the Qualcomm drivers. I tried to uninstall my present drivers. Because my phone gets detected under Kedacom USB devices as Android Bootloader Interface. When I try to uninstall them they automatically get reinstalled by Windows. I tried to disable this but it seems that this doesen't work.
What can i do?
Can someone help me?
Thanks.

Hey guys,
I am Currently attempting to unlock the bootloader on my Pixel 6a, but when I attempt to connect via fastboot in the bootloader my PC shows nothing connected? I can push commands through ADB while the device is booted and have full functionality, but as soon as I reboot the device into the bootloader I lose connection to my PC. OEM Unlocking is enabled in the settings and I have toyed with updating it to the latest update and factory resetting the device. It shows correctly in device manager as 'Pixel 6a' while USB Debugging is disabled and as 'android composite ADB interface' while it is enabled.
To clarify as I am sure many have seen this issue before I do not believe it do be a driver issue as the device will not show up at all in device manager, not even showing with the incorrect driver (No ding to indicate a device has been connected). I have tried using 2 different USB C -> A cables in all slots of two entirely seperate PC's (Both running Windows 10). When I enter fastboot with OEM Unlocking disabled it acts no different to when it is enabled.
I appreciate any help or insight any of you folks can give me.
Device is currently running Android 13 Build number TQ2A.230505.002 if you need anymore info please let me know.
The OEM Unlocking toggle does not affect whether USB function works. It is only a "safety" that allows unlocking the bootloader.
Have you ensured you've installed the correct drivers? Google USB Drivers
I have spent a long time looking at drivers, but I have no device to install the drivers to as the connection drops out once I eneter the bootloader. I have used Zadig in the past to install the correct drivers for devices but when I reconnect the device while I have it open it cannot even detect a new device being connected to the PC. (Also no audible tone which would be heard even with incorrect drivers) I actually only recently used Zadig to install the correct WinUSB drivers for my S10e in which I connected it to my PC in download mode (Queue audible ding) and used Zadig to overwrite the incorrect driver with the correct one. It's almost as if the device will not communicate while it is in Bootloader mode?
I assume you have checked with the 'fastboot devices' command to see if your device is connected when in fastboot mode?
