I'm having an issue connecting GT to windows 7 via adb. Device manager doesn't recognize the GT. I need a little help finding the drivers.
Thanx
install android sdk, run sdk manager, and choose Google. Usb driver package, Samsung drivers.

I had initial difficulties connecting via ADB. Did not see my device.
I had the USB drivers installed for my Fascinate phone, so I could mount the TAB as normal, just not recognized by ADB. When I downloaded and tried to re-install the USB drivers, PC said already installed. So, I simply re-installed the new download over the old drivers, ADB immediately recognized the TAB device.
So, Fascinate USB drivers were close but not quite complete for my Tab device.
YMMV
I'm Italian, sorry for my English.
A few days ago I unlocked the bootloader via Toolkit, rooted and flashed the TWRP recovery _.
But I had hard difficulty:
After driver installed, I unlocked bootloader, enable debugging and then NOTHING!
In practice, the N7 was recognized by windows 7 64bit only in FastReboot mode ..
I tried in every way possible, deleted and reinstalled the driver 50 times, restored windows to a previous point, installed the drivers manually tried without toolkit, but how ADB just do not want to know.
For hours I was still with the bootloader unlocked but without root, until came to my rescue a friend with another notebook but same windows 7 64. Load the Toolkit, install the drivers and everything goes perfectly, I do everything in 5 minutes.
On my laptop there is always the issue driver ADB, in the future I still need my PC recognized the N7 in ADB, how can I do?
One thing that I think is not well understood is that there is no "Generic Class Driver" for ADB nor for fastboot...
... even though the very driver that works for one mode (or phone/tablet device) may be perfectly fine with a different device. The wire protocol for both fastboot and adb are extremely simplistic.
So, what that means is that if the Hardware ID used by the USB device endpoint registers on the bus with a different VendorID/ProductID, Windows will (correctly) not use a previously-installed ADB driver, or previously installed fastboot driver - even though they would probably work just fine.
Here is an example. The Nexus 7 registers the following Hardware ID when ADB debugging is turned on in the OS:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&REV_9999&MI_01
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&MI_01
On the other hand, if you are using TWRP, it's adbd daemon shows up on the PC as:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_9999
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
This means that you might need to install a different driver for using the ADB with the OS, and a different driver for ADB under TWRP - even though it is exactly the same hardware on the other end of the cable! In the absence of a generic class driver for a given USB endpoint, Windows tries to match drivers in it's local (& internet) database based on this VID/PID pair.
If you have a look at the [ADB/FB/APX Driver] Universal Naked Driver 0.72 thread - and download it and have a look at it's included "android_winusb.inf" file - you will see literally hundred of different VID/PID pairs in the driver's android_winusb.inf file in the installer package, corresponding to many hundreds of phones/tablets. Same driver with hundreds of devices listed as compatible.
In the past I recall taking the Google (SDK) USB driver, and manually editing into place matching VID/PID pairs for a HTC phone into the .inf file. It worked perfectly; I probably flashed that phone hundreds if not thousands of times using the Google Driver (My PC is a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine btw).
Anyhow, I have pulled this stunt twice now - once editing the .inf file for the Google Driver, and I did it once with the Universal Naked driver too. You can choose which driver you want to start with.
If you want to give it a roll, you can start with any of those three drivers:
- Google (SDK) USB driver
- XDA "Universal Naked" driver
- Asus Nexus 7 USB Driver (Look under Download)
Note that since you are using W7 x64, make sure that you add each new entries to the .inf file twice - once in the ".NTx86" section, and duplicated again in the ".NTamd64" section. When editing .INF files, make sure to use an editor which preserves simple text file formatting - use "notepad", not "wordpad"
If you want a reference for what values to use, see the bottom end of this post. You should see exactly these same values in your Device Manager, however.
Note that if you see the device show up in the Device Manager as being correctly identified and marked as "working normally" - but it doesn't work - you should probably remove that driver and re-install from a different driver package.
This would certainly be the case for any drivers you saw associating with VID/PID pairs that look like:
VID_18D1&PID_4E40 bootloader/fastboot
VID_18D1&PID_4E41 single adb
VID_18D1&PID_4E42*&MI_01 composite adb
VID_0955&PID_7330 avx mode
VID_18D1&PID_D001 adb in TWRP (maybe CWM too, I didn't check)
That's a lot to throw at you, especially with Italian <=> English in the mix.
Feel free to ask questions.

Hello,
I tried to follow your advice but I have not solved.
I'll explain what I did, so you can correct me.
-Uninstalled previous drivers (from device manager, control panel)
-Restart the PC
-Modified the inf file. Package Asus Nexus 7 USB driver (ntx86 and NTamd64 sections) attach screenshots
-Linked N7 (usb debugging actived)
-Found portable device in device manager, update drivers manually from the Nexus 7 Asus USB drivers
I tried to change also too XDA "Universal Naked" driver by following the same procedure.
I tried to create another account on my pc, but no ADB!

Did you update to 4.2.2?
The is something to do with adb in that update, needing a password or something. I am not sure but if you did update you might want to check that.

Use "Google USB drivers" you get after you install from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Its drivers work with 4.2.2
I got 4.2.2. rooted with ADB working now via only this and no other method
No problem with adb in 4.2.2... I tested yesterday (no need psw too...)

Is this the only device which shows up in the device manager? The "Portable Device" is either the MTP or PTP endpoint - not ADB. The latter (adb) should show up elsewhere in the device manager.
You should certainly NOT be trying to install fastboot/adb driver on MTP/PTP endpoints!
I think perhaps I am not understanding because I am guessing at certain details.
Q1) Do the drivers appear to install correctly?
Q2) When you have the N7 in the corresponding mode - whether or not you observe (device manager) "working normally" or "unknown device" - do you see the following Hardware IDs showing up in the device manager?
Bootloader Fastboot Mode:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E40&REV_0000
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E40
OS adb:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&REV_9999&MI_01
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&MI_01
TWRP adb (Possibly also CWM adb, I haven't checked it) :
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_9999
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
Q3) I presume you went through the same install sequence on your PC that succeeded on the other laptop - in the event the problem is a hardware problem, did you try a different cable or USB port on your PC?
Q4) When you remove drivers, are you requesting that the drivers be removed from the PC?
The 4.2.2 authentication issue might be an issue (although I suspect this is a adb program version issue, not a driver version issue. In any event, it wouldn't effect the behavior of adb in TWRP/CWM.
Sorry for all the questions.

When the drivers are not installed and I connect to pc N7, is only recognized as a portable device, then later recognized as Google Nexus 7.
To install the drivers (modified as described) I click reinstall driver, then later recognized (if connected to pc in android mode, with usb debugging actived) as Android Device in another voice, ADB interface. But is not recognized by the toolkit under adb devices, and even when I try using cmd.
1-When I install the drivers. seem to be installed correctly.
2-Sorry, where can I find Hardware IDs in Device Manager? What is the difference between OS adb and TRWP adb?
3 - In other pc (with same N7, same cable, same driver, same toolkit) I had no problems. I tried to change only the USB port.
4-I uninstall the driver from device manager (uninstall voice) and ask to be also uninstalled software from the PC
In some Italian forum, I found people with the same problems.
Solved by formatting PC. I would not do that ...
Thanks for your help, sorry for my English and my limited skills
AW: No ADB mode, driver issue?
Try to download the latest Android SDK and try to connect with that adb version. Adb with version < 1.0.31 will not work correctly with Android 4.2.2.

I tried sdk but I have not solved.
I use Android 4.2.1. I'm having problems with the update! I can not update OTA (N7 stuck under the impending reboot). I also tried to download the zip file to upgrade the memory and flash it from recovery but the installation is not completed (error 7 build.prop).
I also tried to flash the factory image 4.2.1 (keeping userdata) and start again. Nothing, same mistakes!
Too many problems!

(Note I attached some pictures below)
From the Device Manager:
- Select the Device in question by right-clicking. Choose "Properties"
- A window with three tabs will appear: General, Driver, and Details. Select Details
- The "Property" combo-box-selector has 20 or 30 items - the 2nd one in the list is Hardware Ids. I attached two pictures from Win7-Pro-x64 (below)
But note as I said before: You should NOT be seeing the ADB endpoint under "Portable Devices" - if ADB Debugging is turned on in the OS, you should see it under "Android Phone" or something similar. In any event, the hardware Ids will identify it exactly

Well, as far as the behavior of the USB driver on the PC, almost nothing. Unfortunately - for better or for worse - both TeamWin (TWRP) and CWM authors put their ADB interface on the bus with the VID/PID pair of USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001, whereas the OS puts all its USB interfaces on 18D1/4Exx.
So, even if you get a driver installed for the OS "adb" mode (say by using the Google SDK USB driver or the Asus Nexus 7 driver), it won't work for the custom recovery... unless you fix up the driver installer package to have the matching VID/PID pairs (18D1/D001) in the .INF file for that driver.
I think folks find this confusing - they think, "wait, I have a ADB driver installed" - why does it not work?
OK, there are a couple more things to try (at least before I give up). Roughly they try to answer these questions:
Q1) Is this a toolkit issue, or a driver issue?
Q2) Is it a prior driver you installed that you are not observing that is causing the problem?
The first one (Q1) is easiest to diagnose: when your PC Device Manager indicates that a device is "working normally" - AND THE VID/PID ID MATCHES WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT FOR THE MODE THE TABLET IS IN (regular OS, recovery boot, fastboot mode), can you communicate with the device from the Windows command line? e.g.,
Code:
C:\foo> cd C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory
C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory> fastboot devices
or
C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory> adb devices
If you can communicate with the tablet from the command line - your device ID will be printed by the above commands, then you don't have a driver problem at all - there is something screwy about the way your toolkit is installed.
OK, Q2 -
When Windows installs a driver, it caches it into a kind of database. I suppose it is possible that a prior driver installation might be causing trouble. You can observe - from the device manager - all the drivers that are installed - even for devices that are not currently connected to your computer.
This is done by setting the "devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1" environment variable. It can be done semi-permanently this way, or for a single invocation of the device manager this way..
See the third image attached (devmgr-all-devices.jpg ) - it is my computer in that "show all devices" mode. See all that rubbish in there? It's from other Android devices (HTC, Samsung, etc).
You can walk through each one of those - even the devices that are not currently attached - and inspect the VID/PID pair to see if they happen to match the values that you are expecting to see for the different operating modes on the Nexus 7. I'll leave it up to you whether you want to do this or not; it is a bit tedious. Just don't start deleting drivers willy-nilly if you don't know what they are associated with.

Purchased my girlfriend the verizon g2 for valentines day. Trying to root but I cant get adb to recognize the device.
I have downloaded the unified LG drivers and install all them but when I put the phone into ethernet mode I get a driver not installed error in windows and have four devices in device manager with yellow exclamation points next to them. Attached is a screenshot.
Adb devices shows no results. Have tried on two different computers windows 7 both x64 and x86 and the exact same issue applies.
Can someone help me get the proper drivers installed so I can continue to root this sucker? Thanks =)

right click on the drivers on the device manager and manually install them.
1. browse my computer manually
2. let me pick form a list
3. navigate to the android adb drivers as those are all you should need
I used my PC to help restore my daughters Asus ZenPhone 5. This phone uses an Intel chip so I had to install the Intel USB/ADB drivers in order to access the phone to do data backup before I reset it. Now, I plug my Samsung Note 3 back into my PC and it isn't being recognized. So far, I've uninstalled the Intel drivers, reinstalled the Samsung USB drivers and in Windows Device Manager, I've gone to the Samsung ADB and let it find the best driver. Now my phone will show up but I can't see the internal / SD card memory. How do I restore that? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is it a windows PC? If so, you can try to revert it back to the day before you installed the intel drivers. See if that helps
Or, You try to connect a locked device?
Try to install samsung kies for updated drivers.
Windows 8.1 has the samsung drivers in windows update.
I'm trying to install Samsung mobile phone drivers but no matter what I do I miss these drivers when I connect my Samsung Galaxy Y:
CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM)
CDC ACM Data
CDC OBEX Data
CDC Object Exchange (OBEX)
I have googled for solution and I have followed recommended actions (install Kies, install latest drivers, reinstall all, use "have disk" method) on different operating systems (Windows XP, Windows 7) but I got no success.
My phone doesn't boot (I need to flash it with Odin) so I have tried it all in recovery or download mode but I understand it should not really matter as it's Windows issue, not a phone. I'm using original Samsung USB cable.
Could somebody with a working setup could check if they have above devices correctly installed and provide me more information on the driver file? I mean the information from driver details tab in Windows, ie. name of *.SYS file, *.INF file so I could at least check if I have a driver on a disk.
Any other suggestions also welcomed!
Kies is useless & is not required for galaxy y gt-s5360 as it's not supported for firmware flashing on this device so uninstall it
Uninstall any Samsung drivers you have installed from add/remove programmes
Goto my firmware thread at top of Dev section or link in signature
Download & install USB drivers on my thread
Download the firmware from my thread depending on region
Follow the instructions fully
You can manually install drivers if you wish by clicking on unknown device/device with yellow! click have disk & navigate to where you installed Samsung drivers eg c:/programme files/Samsung
It has finally worked (Windows XP)! I have just installed drivers and followed your instructions (with download mode, not recovery mode). Initially I had other unrecognized devices (very generic usb ones) but after a few attempts (usb plug out, usb plug in) the phone has been detected successfully and I managed to flash it. Many thanks!
Sorry, I forgot to mention. I had also removed a battery.
I have the same issue, Could you please paste the links for downloading the drivers.
