[Q] Help! Cannot get adb to connect to G1

1st post here.
Seems like basic problem but I cannot get adb connected to my G1.
I started off on process of upgrading to CM 6.1 but when I was about to put recovery image on phone I discovered flash_image program was not found. Then set off on the adb route but am now stuck. Tried searching but not found answer. Here is what I have done/tried so far:-
PC is XP Pro SP3
G1 V1.6 rooted via Universal method (su works ok via Term)
Downloaded and installed latest SDK in c:\Android-sdk
USB debugging is enabled on phone
SD card is not mounted
When I run "adb devices" (from C:\android-sdk\platform-tools) it fails with
msg "error: protocol fault (no status)"
The basic usb connection to PC is known to be working ok (have copied files to phone sd card etc. no problem if I mount it)
The installation of usb drivers seemed to go ok although I had to do it manually from folder \android-sdk\google-usb_driver
When I look at usb devices with USBDeview there are 3 related to Android phone (all enabled).
1. HTC Android phone usb device (connected)
2. USB Mass storage device (not connected)
3. Android composite ADB interface (not connected)
Further info...
I see other people have had the same problem (with other phones as well) but cannot find any specific reason or fix that works.
I have reinstalled latest sdk rev08
Unintsalled and reinstalled latest google usb drivers (ver 4) endless times
Usb driver install appears to all go ok
In XP Device Manager I get Android Phone device which expanded shows single Android Composite Interface Device which has staus enabled and working ok
I have no "Other" usb devices etc. showing up in Device Manager
USBDeview shows 3 usb devices for Android phone. The connected one shows the htc serial no. The ADB composite interface is not connected and has no serial number.
I have tried different usb ports, cables, and another standard G1 phone - all gives same results
I noticed the adb_usb.ini file had no device id in it, I ran "update adb" as per comment note at top of adb_usb.ini but still got not entries in file.
Someone surely must have solution to this. I cannot believe a G1 phone does not work/been tested with sdk adb.
Maybe some source code guru can tell me under what conditions adb gives the "protocol error: no status" msg.
Or could someone with a working G1 adb usb connection post their adb_usb.ini etc.
Have spent 2 days on and off fiddling with this sdk now. :-(
Thanks

Shame you didn't spend some of that two days reading the site rules and the fact that not only is there Q&A section but also try posting in the ADB threads that are littered around these forums.
Catch me on irc, link in sig and I'll see what can be done.

I have read the Q&A and plenty of guides on how to setup adb including those on here. My problem seems a bit dfifferent from most others in that i have tried all the usual suggestions and they have not worked - Why I else would I bother posting detailed info here?
If you some links to threads which address problem please post them.

he offered help via irc, so you should think about accepting it.
anyway he ment that this has (almost) NOTHING to do with development and should have been posted in Q&A.

fastboot uses fastboot.exe, not adb.exe. Adb works while in recovery or while booted.

[Q] OnePlus One USB and OTG storage issue and TWRP

After a few weeks since I got my OnePlus, I'm having a strange problem. Whenever I try to copy any sort of data to/from the phone, a few seconds after task has been started I get this error
"Cannot copy file.xxx
The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected"
Also, the OTG storage devices get unmounted randomly and notification pops up
"USB storage unexpectedly removed"
I reached the concusion (like most of you would) that maybe USB port is malfunctioning.
But here is the twist:
If I connect my phone in MTP mode while in TWRP, the copying/pasting just occurs successfully each time. Even if I mount OTG in TWRP, USB storage works as it should without any issues.
I've already tried:
-changing different ROMs (PA, CM)
-flashing stock kernel, recovery and rom
-using different USB cables
-using different PC
-changing in between MTP and PTP
-copying directly to root, folders and sub-folders
But each time, the copying and OTG storage fails while booted into OS but works normally while using TWRP
[BTW I created accidentally created a duplicate thread in development section which I can't remove]

Hello friends,
I have seen many people's reporting issues with oneplus one OTG/USB connection.
Sometimes it works for few minutes and then disconnects. But it works fine in trwrp mode.
I too have same problem and have tried various methods to resolve the issue,
One of the solution i tried is flashing cm12 nightly..but the issue resurface very often.
The work around i found is " To disable the mobile data connection and then connect the OTG.
It should resolve your OTG problem, meanwhile developers provides some concrete solution.

[Completed] CUBOT X6 dead screen, no USB debug enabled, Stock ROM, no root

Hi there.
I got my hands on this CUBOT X6 with broken screen. I can see the screen just fine BUT can't operate it from its bottom half approximately.
I would like to use this Android phone as a security camera to watch my garage, but without control, I'm stuck
What I'm trying to achieve here is to:
a) start up the phone and load a security app to it
b) control the phone via some "Android Control"-like app (without using the phone's broken screen)
c) set it up as a security camera and let it take pictures for me
Can anyone pls point me to some links here on the forum to solve my below listed problems ? ( and YES I've spend searching and reading this and few other forums for the last few hours and found just what is listed below)
So....
1. The phone was locked with swipe password with the posibility to control only the top three dots, the other ones are dead, NO USB Debugging available, Phone was set to CHARGE ONLY mode when connected to PC via USB - I managed to download stock ROM and Flashed it but....
2. It asks for a few details and requires you to click NEXT which is in the botom of the screen which is touch-dead. So i have searched and found this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2786395 But....
3. The phone is STOCK rom with absolutely no settings = no USB Debugging enabled and I do not know how to "modify the default.prop" http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=17 when the screen is dead and no usb debuging is enabled = Can't access the file system (or can I ? )
4. The phone is not detected by the Android Control app at all.
5. The recovery is in Chineese ! I tried translating it via Google Translate via pictures, but that did not shows/offers me the option for entering the command prompt (as advised in tread mentioned in point 3)
I'm too lame in this Android/Linux based sea, so if anyone is willing to help me here (if you think its possible to achive my goals a-c) please give me some step by step guide how to do that. (links to treads would be enough)
Thanks a lot !

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and there is no forum specifically for the Cubot devices at this time but I see that you have already posted an identical message in the General Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728355 which is a reasonable place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=cubot x6 which might be worth reviewing. Since your device is relatively uncommon, please be patient and give the experts there plenty of time to respond.
Good luck!

Unable to connect to usb

I installed Carbon-cr-5.1-moo-release-bacon-20180202-1444.
I am unable to get usb connection working and having tried many different things...
-I have latest Android Studio installed and Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41.
-In Android Studio SDK Tools I have installed Google USB Driver v12.
-I have developer options turned on and Android Debugging turned on.
-When I plug in OnePlous One I get no mobile notifications and nothing in Win 10 Pro.
- when I go into developer options and hit 'select usb configuration' my selection of mtp or whatever is always ignored and charging selectiomn remains
-Device Manager / Portable or Other devices does not have the phone beneathn it.
-When I run adb devices in cmd there are no devices attached.
-I cannot find a OnePlus One adb usb driver. I thought I found one but I have no way to verify and after installing it made no difference
I want to update to the latest rom in case this may be the cause, but after I download it to the phone and click flash
I just get the oneplus icon forever and the recover app twrp does not come up. It used to be there but then after I installed
the first rom after a couple of uses it disappeared for some reason or at least will not boot to it.
When I installed that first custom rom I folowed instructions for rooting and on completion it says to open up the installed
su app but when you open it it says there is a more up to date version but when you try to install that it fails.
Now all the apps that will not run if your app is rooted say it is rooted and all the apps that will not run unless it is rooted
say it is not rooted.
I think I need connection via usb in order to reinstall the twrp recovery app in order to install an up to date rom, hoping this may help
me solve the usb issue, but I cannot get the usb connection working as described above,
any hehlop would be appreciated.

[CLOSED] Question: How to retrieve internal data from black screen

Hi XDAers ... I have a challenge.
Huawei mate 20X fell.
Screen broke, as in black.
Phone turns on and can get into recovery, but nothing more.
Unsure if it is sitting and waiting for my unlock code (tried it on the black screen a few times wout success), or what it's doing.
The output over hdmi is also black (but this is most likely due to not being able to select the correct mode when usb connected.
Does anyone here have any ideas on how I can extract the data (internal - no sd card) from the phone ?
My computer recognizes a usb connection, HiSuite also recognized a Huawei connection, but says the device not connected.
RPi also sees a usb device, but nothing can be mounted (suspect again need to allow this on the phone screen).
Any ideas ?
Thx
Iyah.
