It's probably your environment settings. Download the sdk and make sure your PATH has the extracted sdk folder location in it. I'm using windows 7 64-but ultimate, and did have a few problems at first, but everything is great now.
Also, I installed the Java Runtime Environment on my machine because I was developing an android app and I need it to run files within the SDK (like to make an emulated sdcard). You may want to install the JRE and add that to your PATH as well.

Google HTC sync x64 drivers. I installed a few weeks ago and had no issues with adb today.

oh sorry i thought thats what you meant

installed the HTC 64 bit drivers and still no go I cannot even use htc sync

I had a problem getting the device to work in cmd with xp64. I had to make sure I had a working ADB driver. One blog by a guy named Chris Bunney said to use PDAnet's driver. Basically install the 64 bit version of PDAnet in order to get the driver and then uninstall if you're not going to use it (but make sure you have the driver set up first). If you've already got a driver installed, go to the driver and manually pick "HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface" as the working driver for the device. Again, this is how I got it working on xp64 not sure how it'll go for windows 7 64 bit.

Did you use the updated driver from THIS link? Beyond that I have no other idea what to tell you beyond putting the android sdk in the root of your c: drive.
I just tried this on my girlfriends laptop with 7 x64 pro (completely fresh), and had no issues.

I had the same problem, this guide and some googling got me up and running quickly.

Google Maps, Facebook and ADB

Hello All.
I've had my UK, T-Mobile G1 for quite a while now. I have rooted it and it is running the latest CyanogenMod recovery image and ROM. I also have Apps2SD set up on my 8GB SD card, on a 512MB ext partition. This was all working fine until the problems below occurred...
I'm having some problems with several apps and ADB.
My PC runs Windows 7, 64 bit, and I can't seem to find a driver for the G1's ADB. I'm probably being incredibly stupid, but I just can't find one. I have used one before on Vista, where I had to set some boot options, but I'm not too sure / happy about doing that on my nicely functioning Windows 7. And as my friend once said; "You mess around with windows, then windows will mess around with you"...
But, anyway, I can't seem to get ADB working, if someone could either send me a link to the drivers or guide me through it, I'd be grateful...
Also, it may be due to me running CyanogenMod, but if I try to update the Facebook app, it downloads the app, and then when it tries to install, gives me the error "Installation Unsuccessful - Incompatible Update".
And with the Google Maps app, it says "Installation unsuccessful - Package file was not signed correctly". This may be due to me trying to get the hacked version of the app to get the Google Maps Navigation working in the UK, but I couldn't get that to work, so I uninstalled it and Nav Launcher, and now when I try to update from the Market it gives me that error.
I've seen a guide online with ADB commands, but as I have no access to ADB, I'm a tad screwed. I've tried runnign the commands in the Terminal Emulator in the phone, which does approximately nothing whatsoever.
So, can anyone give me any guidance on any of my Android problems?
Thanks in advance - Ethan
To the best of my knowledge no one has successfully used ADB with Windows 7/64bit

In that case, do you remember where you obtained the driver from? I would love a link, or a zip file or something...
I'm on Vista x64 SP2 and I can use ADB just fine. You just need to download the SDK and then get the USB driver through there. It used to come included, but now you need to use the ADV and SDK manager and download the drivers as an SDK Component through there.
After that, make sure your phone is set to USB Debugging mode and plug it in then point windows to the new drivers. If it doesn't want to install the new drivers, you might need to remove the old ones first. I had to use USB Deview (DL link at bottom of page) and removed all installed HTC drivers. After that I plugged my G1 back in, pointed it at the newly downloaded drivers and all was well.
I'm running adb/fastboot/android sdk on win7 64b ultimate. The drivers are included in the sdk download. Once you download the sdk, make sure you have java installed. (I had to install JRE and JDK to get it to work properly, not sure if this was needed) Anyhow, when you have the sdk downloaded, run the sdk setup program. Go to settings and check the box for force update (unsure of the exact terminology used there) then go to available updates and your drivers are the last option on the list.

working on rooting quick question

I'm working on the rooting process. After i installed the windows 7 drivers it comes up in command prompt but it does NOT sync with HTCSync, the phone is completely set up though, is that normal? On my phone it says that it cannot find it on my PC.
If you're using 64-bit Win7, you've gotta install the Vista-64 drivers... there's a guide somewhere around here. If you're using 32-bit, I'm not sure what the issue is.

[Q] fastboot no longer works

I have a folder for android stuff like fastboot and adb that I keep for fixing my phone. I keep the minimum files required for fastboot to work... adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll, fastboot.exe and the 64bit usb drivers.
I used to be able to use fastboot even after formatting my computer (and reinstalling the drivers), but it's been a long time and when I tried to do the same again, it no longer works.
Windows says the driver is not compatible with the device. I download Android SDK Tools to download the usb drivers there. They install, but fastboot still doesn't detect the phone.
I tried following tutorials out there to get fastboot to work, but I tried on 2 HTC Dreams and they don't get detected. What am I missing?
Only thing I remember being different is that I'm using Windows 7 x64 SP1 now and before I was using plain Windows 7 x64.
You need to use the usb driver removal tool and install the usb driver from SDK.
yes you've got my same trouble.
this is my thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032249
i solved with backtrack 3.. don't ask me why because i don't know.. i just have a try with bt3 because i use bring it with me on my pendrive (it can ever be useful )

The old drivers I had were never installed. For some reason, Windows did not recognize a compatible driver. I did download a fresh set of drivers from SDK and windows did install them, but fastboot devices is not listing anything.

I see no reason why I can't use fastboot on Windows if it worked before. Perhaps if there is no other way, I'll try Linux distros.
It sound like there is no compatible driver for Windows 7 x64 SP1. Check google to see may be they might have an updates.

So there is an actual difference between win7 and sp1 in regards to the drivers and not that I set it up wrong?
From my experience on working with Windows. Every version always different. As far as how much different, I can't tell.
If you had it working with W7 before SP1, then there is a change in driver that causing it not to work correctly. Do you required to upgrade to W7 SP1? Or is that your preference?

Well that's all I can think of. Just wanted to know if anyone else had problems with sp1. I think faastboot should work with my winxp vms.. gonna try that next time I try to use fastboot..

[SOLVED] Virtual Machine running Windows with ADB

I am using my laptop for ADB currently, but I want to know if it is possible to run ADB through windows in a Virtual Machine? I have gotten to where I have ADB running and the VM reconizeds the phone but as soon as I type,
Code:
adb devices
There is no response. Side note: I am using VMware and am running Tvall's CM7 on my phone.
Edit: solved was a driver issue
adb works when drivers for adb were installed
did you install drivers from Android SDK Tools?
at second you need turn usb debugging on (settings/applications/development)

Yes I know this. The virtual machine knows the device is there(ADB drivers are installed) but in cmd it doesn't work. USB debugging is on, another option is the wireless ADB from CM7, but I have no idea how that works. Thanks for the help.

When connecting phone through usb debugging there is 'Android USB Devices' section in Device Manager (My Computer / Manage / System Tools / Device Manager). Do you have this section while connecting?
Wireless adb application establishes connection via custom port and adb can use this port to communicate with phone.

In device Manager it has "Android Composite ADB Interface" and a "HTC Android Device" My VM connects to HTC Android device, not letting me connect to it in ADB. Before I connect my device and before it installed the drivers I installed the Google driver package from AndroidSDK. Thanks for your help.
How did you fix it?

So how did you end up fixing this? I want to connect my phone to the VM.
This is happening to me right now. I have a VM Windows 7, it can detect a "HTC Android Device" but the platform-tool command line cant detect my phone. Even with ADB USB drivers, platform-tools, as well as HTC-sync installed.
How did you fix it? Please tell me

I uninstalled all the drivers (with USBdeview) and instead of installing with the Google Driver I used the HTC one for MyTouch 3G. I think I installed the drivers before I plugged in the phone. And also what software are you using to run your VM?

I am using Oracle VM Virtualbox. Doing VM Windows 7 under Ubuntu 11.10.
I have been trying a few times in the VM Windows 7. I tried the lastest HTC Sync 3.0.0.0 as well as the older version 2.0.3.3 that worked when I was using full Windows 7.
But in VM, nothing works
The VM win 7 can detect a USB Composite Device, but it cant find the correct driver.
edit:
Oh my god!! hopefully you still havent read this post yet because I just got it working!
In the settings of the VM, theres an option to enable USB 2.0
But to enable that, we must install the Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack
It works!
edit2:
but somehow the transfer speed is really slow...
i guess i will just install windows again dual boot it

Not until you tell me about your VM
I want to know that because at the moment the transfering and intallation of APK files in Oracle VM VirtualBox is utterly slow (comparing with my old Win7 days), I am interested in other alternative VM which might be faster.
I see you mentioned VMware in you first post, I went to their website (link) but I see a lot different products... can you tell me which one you used, can you please tell me more about your VM?
Thanks in adcance.
edit:
Hey there again, I fainlly got VMware working.
I went for VMware Player 4.0.2. But for Ubuntu 12.04, we need a custom patch the VMware before it can run gracefully.
Not I have got it running now, VMware is so much faster than Oracle VM.
Thanks for the suggestsion!

adb driver won't connect
I'm running windows parrallel on my mac. On the windows side I have the samsung drivers downloaded but when I go to root my phone the command line says doesn't recognize. Anyone know away I can get drivers to recognize phone when running virtual on a mac?

won't show up in ADB... it just won't...

I've tried every driver known to man. I've tried the official Google drivers, I've tried the naked drivers, I've tried the ones that come with PDANet.
I've tried rebooting, uninstalling all other drivers, etc. I tried on my Windows 7 desktop, I tried on my Windows 8 laptop after disabling driver enforcement.
Every single time, the ADB driver installs fine, but adb itself sees no devices. I develop, I have many other Android devices (I am moving from a One XL) and they all just need one quick install and are detected. I have the same issue with my Nexus S - getting it consistently recognised on ADB is near impossible.
What am I doing wrong? I've waited three months for this thing and I want to set it up.
'USB Debugging' enabled?
Of course. It will install drivers for the ADB device, it just won't be detected by adb.exe.
I tried the 'switch to Photo MTP' mode trick too. I am having no issues with adb to a One XL, One V, Defy, Aurora II or U8800. This is really bizarre.
Do you have java jdk installed correctly?
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
I wasn't aware java was relevant to adb at all (and I don't think it is) but yeah I have the JDK installed and it works fine for my app dev.
I had the same issue. Drivers installed correctly (and worked on other phones) but not the N4.
In the end i used an Ubuntu Virtual machine, attached the phone, followed a guide on XDA for getting ADB drivers in linux, and it worked straight away.
Days of trying in windows, and done in 5 minutes through linux.
Yep, I too went the virtual machine route.
Ridiculous. The only two developer devices I've owned (Nexus S and Nexus 4) and they've both been impossible to get the adb drivers going...

Yes you have to have installed the java jdk to run adb, it doesn't work without it. Java jdk is supposed to be setup first before you install the sdk so that it finds it. One issue why people can't get adb working is that the path environment variables are not set up and need to be manually entered.
Example of setting your windows path environment variables for jdk version 6 windows 32 bit on Windows Vista.
right-click on My Computer, and select Properties
under the Advanced tab, hit the Environment Variables button
in the dialog that comes up, under System Variables double-click on Path
Add ;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_18\bin to the Path variable (or wherever the jdk was installed)
Add ;C:\android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools to the Path variable (or wherever you installed the sdk)

The linux guides include editing the udev rules so that you manually enter the Nexus 4 into the list of devices in order to get adb to recognize the phone. Could be the same issue with windows. I only have the sdk installed on a Linux box and haven't used it on windows since I installed it on a Vista box a few years ago but I would imagine windows would have the same problem recognizing the phone.

You shouldn't even be able to install the sdk properly without having java jdk installed first as the windows installer checks to see if its there.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html
Edit: and by installer I meant SDK Manager, what you use to download and install the android usb drivers. I suppose you can get past the java limitation by just downloading the sdk and copying the needed files into the c directory then using 3rd party drivers but java jdk is what controls the phone once its connected so I don't know how you are getting it to work.
Edit 2: I guess I was wrong in part, I installed the sdk without java jdk on a windows xp box, used the universal drivers linked to above, and it recognized my phone in adb devices and I was able to reboot it. But I can't use sdk manager as it requires java jdk to be installed.
had the same issue... you must be using a usb port on the front/side of the computer
use one of the usb ports on the back, and you should be just fine.
This happens to me too. On all windows computers I have used for ADB and all phones it will work the first few times, and then it won't work no matter what. I can usually get fastboot to work reliably but that is it.
