Hi there... totally new to the Andriod world and am stuck on trying to upgrade the firmware. I am running Windows 7 64 bit and the devices says that it is installed correctly yet when I run "adb devices" it gives me and error stating "command not recognized....? any idea's?
Rogers device....
do you have your sdk setup correctly? do you have the sdk tools folder in your path?
you can find out by typing path
you should see
C:\android\tools as one of the entries....
windows is telling you that the adb command is not found.
i have the same issue. running windows 7 64bit and adb doesnt find the device. the phone doesnt show up in the device manager either, but it told me that it installed correctly when i first plugged it in.
Problem was solved by changing the xml file to the language code.
Original Problem:
Hi everyone, just got the kindle today and finished root, then I used the Kindle Utility tool to change to fastboot.
As I finished the fastboot, it ended up stuck on the boot screen. Try serverl methods, but did not work.
According to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20421225&postcount=222
"Once rebooted, connect your Kindle again via USB. You'll probably hear 3 tones (which means it recognized a device, but didn't load any drivers). In device manager, you'll see a device just called "kindle" or "unknown" with an exclamation point by it. At this point, you'll need to install drivers for it again. Pick "Browse my computer for driver software" BUT don't browse, just click on "Let me pick from a list...", and select "Android Phone" and then pick the newest "Android Composite ADB Interface" from the list. I think you may have 4.0.0.0 or something similar (you may have only a 2.x version possibly depending on which drivers you loaded to root your phone)."
But the problem here is that it the Windows Manager recgnized the kindle as an "Unkown Device" , and also I did not find "Android Phone" from the list, and cannot install driver manually as well. Does anyone have any suggestions?
just right click the unknown device and update the drivers

Excellent method! Thanks
Hello.
And bacon and spam:
I've recently upgraded my SGS to ICS (ICSSGS ROM) and started to develop a simple application.
So, now i've got to the point that the emulator starts to show its limitations, so i need to debug directly on the real device.
Well, i've been trying to make ADB recognize my phone, tried several usb drivers from several sites, none of them worked.
After several hours spanking windows, it's finally working (yes! almost 6 AM in the morning!).
What matters:
So, to anybody who have the same problem as i had, do the following:
0. Uninstall any drivers that you've tried before.
1. Extract the zip file that i've uploaded to anywhere you like.
2. Enable debugging on your phone and connect it to PC throught the USB cable
(Just connect it, don't mount)
3. On your computer, click Start -> Right click on "Computer" -> Manage
This will open the "Computer Management" window (it might take some seconds to load).
4. Click "Device Manager". Now you should find your device in the list. It must be really easy to find. It's called something like "GT-I9000" or "GalaxyS" and it has a yellow warning sign next to it.
5. Right click on it and choose "Update Driver Software". In the window that appears, choose "Browse my computer for driver software". It then asks you where is the driver.
6. Click the "Browse" button and choose the folder you extracted from my zip file.
(If you didn't change it, it must be called "Android Composite ADB Interface")
7. Click "Next" and cross your fingers. If you're lucky, it may work for you.
Final notes:
1. I'm not responsible for ANYTHING. Whatever you do, it's your own choise to do it. I guarantee absolutely nothing.
2. This is was tested on Windows 7 - 64 bits with Team ICSSGS RC4.2 ROM and Semaphore ICS 0.9.1 Kernel.
3. Have fun.
4. If you try this, please answer the topic and tell everybody if it's working for you (mentioning your Windows version and what ROM you use).

Missing file when installing driver on windows 7 x64
Hi,
I have recently installed the most recent Dark Knight ICS 4.0.4 build to my Samsung Galaxy S. The ROM seems very good but I'm an android app developer and need to be able to debug my applications on the device via USB.
I have tried the driver provided in the thread which won't install due to a missing file according to the Windows 7 x64 driver install wizard. The exact message is displayed after step 7 and says:
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it."
"Android Composite ADB interface"
"The system cannot find the file specified".
Is there a file missing in the package? Has anybody managed to get this driver working?
Cheers,
Ben
Does it say that it doesn't find a controller or that is there a missing file?
Anyway, please try this installer and let me know if it works for you:

What's wrong with the Nexus S drivers available with Android SDK?
Google USB driver, R4 developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
The SGS will present it self like that when it is running ICS/CM7/CM9.

Dont work for me.
System: Windows 7 x64
Android 4.04 Dark Knight
Nevertheless thanks for your approach. I'll test if it works with the SDK Updater.
I'm going to test in my desktop this weekend to check if it works with it.
I have the same problem, but with WIndows 7 32 bit. Drivers from discusion doesn't work. Don't you have some for 32 bit?
I found SDK Components on developer.android.com, where is Android driver which suppose to work, but unfortunately ODIN still do not see phone.
I also have the same problem but mine is worse because my phone is completely down after I tried to restore from a GB ndriod backup failure , phone won't boot , cannot boot into recovery only in download mode but no way my 4 x computers would detect the phone now ....tried using heimdall in linux as well as sdb, no go....so sad...help...

Using Google USB drivers finally worked for me. They can be optionally installed with Android SDK using SDK manager (extras). After installation drivers can be found in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver.
Just follow the instructions in the first post to find your device from device manager with exclamation mark. Need at least one reboot to work and I also redirected the driver installation process to Google usb driver directory but now ADB finally recognizes my SGS (MyICS, Android 4.0.3).
Edit: Operating system Vista 64-bit
[Currently stuck in "error: device not found" while trying adb push -command. I will update if I find a workaround. Probably something to do with inf-file.]
For alternate .inf -file (optional):
Google "usb-drivers-not-working-after-flash-latest-rom-ota" and see post #12 to see alternative inf-file. Some have managed to make adb recognize the device with that file, but I have at least this far been unsuccessful.
Edit: Problem above was caused by me being stupid and trying to use push in shell, which caused phone unable to locate host system folders. I don't know if that inf file has anything to do with drivers working now, but go ahead and try it if doesn't work with the original .inf
I got my i9000 recognized using the latest drives from the Google sdk
That‘s great

This worked for me
The very important thing is that newest Google USB driver is in
Code:
[B]<android-sdk>/extras/google/usb_driver/[/B]
location, not in
Code:
<android-sdk>/usb_driver
It really makes the difference !
these drivers only worked once...
all the other times killing and starting over adb i was getting error messages like "device not found" and "protocol fault" even though adb devices was listing the device online.
apparently i connected the phone to another USB3 port on my pc (front panel) and that was it!! it now works every time i type adb shell or adb devices.i no longer get any error messages.rather weird
anyway..i also wanted to be up to date with everything so i uninstalled all related software like the older java 6 jdk, Android SDK and the drivers mentioned above.
i followed the procedure below and installed all the latest packages:
latest java 7u5 JDK, the latest Android SDK (nstaller_r20.0.1-windows.exe) then ran sdk-manager and loaded http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html#InstallingDriver google USB drivers rev 6. then installed these drives so i got the ADB composite interface on my device manager and it all works fine now.
I recenelty installed latest ICS , and SDK recognizes my phone as ACER ADB , when I'm pretty sure its a Samsung I9000 . I tried uninstalling the ACER ADB and install the one that the guy posted in the first post , and it didn't work , it said this driver is not compatible , oddly it reinstalled ACER ADB though. I can't even uninstall it at all , I removed all my Samsung drivers , and everything else I installed for Samsung , and its still there , I even tried removing the GOOGLE USB drivers , still there.
Neendless to say that the phone doesnt connect to the PC at all even though it says everything is alright. For example i got ths gPAD app , which uses the USB with Debugging to turn the phone into a mouse , but it says its not connected even though it is.
Just got my LG G2. I rooted it and flashed a custom recovery and then wiped everything on the internal SD card. No biggie, I'll just adb sideload a rom. However, when I type in "adb devices" it says "list of devices attached" and then nothing is listed.
Device manager shows "g2" with an exclamation point. Following rooting steps I loaded the LGUnitedMobileDriver blah blah 3.10.exe and it installed correctly. I even tried it again, but I cannot get the g2 with exclamation point to go away. The computer is Windows 8 64 bit, and I tried it on my laptop which is Win 8.1 64 bit.
I also pointed the driver search to the LG Mobile United Driver folder and it couldn't install.
Is there a .zip file of the driver I can point to? I can't seem to find one and I need my phone
Please help!

SOLVED
When I went to device manager, I chose "install driver from a compatible list off your computer" (or something like that) and I chose ADB driver. It turned it from g2 to android adb device in the device manager. Then when I typed in "adb devices" it showed the phone. I am sideloading a rom right now!
I downloaded latest ADB/Fastboot package to my Win 7 PC.
I installed the Zadig drivers exec to load drivers (as seen in another thread).
Enabled USB debug
Connected phone
ADB devices ... doesn't show phone
Phone shows ADB icon in task bar
In device manager I can see libusbK USB Devices .. ADB Interface (Interface 1) .. when I plug the phone in
I have revoked previous computers and rebooted both PC and phone with no changes
... now I am a bit lost
* Bump * .. I can't do much without ADB ... could someone at least point me to the correct drivers - what I have downloaded from Zadig do't seem to work.
I'm currently having the same problem of not being detected when I type in "ADB devices" in Windows 10 after an auto-update which can't be stopped screwed up my drivers. I found this thread while searching for an answer myself. I tried reinstalling all Qualcomm and fastboot drivers and even though my phone can be detected in Windows again (after manually selecting "MTP USB Device" as a driver update for the A7 in the device manager) I still get nothing when I type in ADB devices. Though I tried flashing something to it anyway (same TWRP recovery I already have since the file was already there) and it seemed to work? Have you tried flashing something to your phone anyway?
