Phones not showing up in ADB devices - LG V20 Questions & Answers

so i'm trying to root my phone, and connected into fastmode...usb debugging is turned on.... but when i
try to run the adb device command ,my 996 is isn't showing up as devices connected in windows or mac....any suggestions?

Try changing the USB connection type?
For some reason, I had to select the option to connect my device for transferring photos instead of the usual file transfer for it to show up. Is there a particular guide you are using?
Perhaps someone with more knowledge could shed more light on the matter.

If you are in fastboot mode it wont show up in adb devices. it will show up in fastboot devices

That's because you have to manually chose the driver. Do that and it will work

First download USBDeview - http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usbdeview.zip
Unzip it
Run USBDeview.exe as Administrator
You will see all drivers being used on your computer
Highlight and Uninstall all drivers with the description have HTC Android (Should be 3 of them)
Right Click on the driver and press uninstall
Once done, Unplug your phone and plug it back in
You should now get the notification of the ADB device
Follow the steps above to install the drivers
Then, plug your phone in, don't mount it! Pull up a command windows and type:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools (or wherever you have your sdk installed)
adb devices (should see your phones serial number listed if you did it correctly)
adb shell
su (for root access)

i downloaded the sdk, what drivers are you talking about?
when i setup the sdk, i downloaded those drivers.
It was a long time ago when I downloaded SDK, however, if I'm not mistaken, I believe when it connects to the server and gives you download options, one of those options is USB drivers.

thats about 64bit windows, im only using a 32bit.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Here are the USB drivers for windows. Also, make sure you have 'debugging' checked in your phoned settings. ADB won't work otherwise. After you install the drivers, follow the steps on the first page. Hope that works!

You have to make sure you're running USBdeview as admin on your computer. Also, you won't necessarily have 3. Just select which ever ones you do have, right click and delete those files. Then unplug your phone and plug it back in. You computer should automatically install the appropriate drivers, and you should be able to use adb.

[Problem] Adb won't show up devices whatever I do...

I Tried guides that try to solve this from everywhere, Including here,
I used latest version of the android usb-drivers that comes with the latest Android SDK (downloaded directly from google with the SDK download GUI thinggy).
Tried to uninstall all usb roots,
Tried force removal of driver using external app and re-installations
Tried different drivers from multiple locations,
And still, whatever I try - there is notihng on the "adb devices" list
"List of devices attached"
<CR>
<CR>
C:\.......>
Everything shows up okay, on first run of the adb the 'whatever' service starts and everything is fine
Device DOES appear properly on device manager "Android Composite ADB Interface".
Windows DOES the pnp beep whenever I check or uncheck the "Debugging mode"
This hapnned both on STOCK ROM (first or second software version of the phone released) and on latest Cyanogen 5.0.6
One thing I did noticed, "Android ADB Device" Either appear under "Android" type (usb debugging on) or under USB Controllers (When usb debugging is off).
Ho, I did not mentioned the phone, I'm talking about Nexus One.
Thanks for any help.
Amm, any ideas?
Try using a program named USBDEVIEW, remove the android driver and plug the phone to your PC again and wait to reinstal the drivers.
I take it your on Windows, so I might not be much help as I use Linux strictly but try to run the command prompt as Administrator (right click > run as I think) and then
adb kill-server
adb start-server
Not sure if that will help but I know in Linux you must start the ADB server as root in order to see the attached devices, so I assume in Windows you must start it as Administrator.
I ran into a similar issue with my sapphire. Turns out it was as simple as me having my tethering app on. Once I turned it off (pda net), it worked like a charm. Hope this helps

Hells to the yea, I now has root and rom and I am a happy boy!
Thanks again
hmm >.< nothing is working for me this laptop is not detecting my (Nexus S) device in ADB
windows sees it fine, drivers are installed (for normal mode and ADB mode), mass storage works,
but ADB Devices list shows up empty
2 other phone works just fine (SGS & XT720)
Update: went to another computer and it shows up properly.... (you just gotta "luv" windows )
Try installing htc sense from htc website even if running vanilla. It will install the driver properly. Then un-install sense and keep drivers. It's the only thing that worked for me.

VS980 root troubles

Hey guys ive been pretty stoked to root and rom my g2 now that im bored of LG's UI haha i have been trying to use the IOroot method but something about the drivers is giving me such a hard time! i installed them but every time i open a command window and type in "adb devices" nothing is coming up so obviously its not being able to read my device which isnt alowing me to root my phone any help would be greatly appriciated! thanks in advance
I was having trouble, finally went to LG site to download drivers

adb is a special android thing. You need to install it to just use it anywhere. Do this:
1. Create a folder on your desktop (you can call it root or whatever you want).
2. Extract IORoot into folder created in step one.
3. SHIFT RIGHT CLICK and do "open command window here" (This is the most important).
4. type
Code:
adb devices
5. if you devices shows run the root.bat file to root your device.
Look at this for a little more help.

This is just a thought, but maybe, power the phone off, power the PC off. Turn them both back on, re-read the instructions on how to root the phone. It sort of sounds like you could be missing just a little thing on the instructions. You may also try a different USB port on your PC too. I rooted mine back on iRoot 6 so I would have to think that iRoot 10 should be better then what I used.

I had the same issue. I installed these lg drivers, not sure if they had anything to do with it because it still didn't work. What finally worked was when I turned off debug and may have been in mtp connection. Obviously after you have to put back in debug and ethernet connection to follow the ioroot method.

unfortunatly with ethernet on i am still getting the same results... its just not recognizing my device? at least now in the notification bar i get the notification that USB debugging is on so i guess im making progress? uggh this is getting pretty annoying any thoughts guys?
Run it directly from local drive root. IE C:/ Windows 7? Control alt delete. End the stale adb process, you should see two, one not performing sitting around 2000 kb ram and the other using ram. End that and it should force adb to kick in. I had to do this on win 7 multiple times with dif phones. It's like it locks up when finding the com port or whatever the hell it's doing. I take no blame if you screw up your device this way. I have resorted to a virtual xp for all my phone needs as not everything works in Linux.
Here's how rooted my phone with IORoot:
Unzipped IORoot to root of my hard drive
Plugged in phone with usb (make sure debug mode is enabled). When prompted to choose connection, choose modem. You should see debug icon appear in status bar. If not, choose Ethernet.
Opened IORoot folder. Hold down shift and right click an empty area and choose 'open command window'
Type adb devices. If device shows up, proceed. With normal root procedure.

Not sure if it matters but I am running 64 bit Windows 8
- In the instructions didn't you have to change a setting for the Com Port to get it to see the phone??
- Did you ever get the prompt on your phone to accept the Connection. I can not remember what it was, but it only comes up once, and I am not referring to the USB connection IE Ethernet??
- Are you sure you have Developer Options turned on?? The step where you keep tapping on the Developer thing and then the phone finally gives you the Developer Options??

Please enable USB Debugging in the developer options. When you connect the phone to your computer a window will prompt, please grant permission for your computer for usb debugging and click ok. Now your device will be recognized in the adb.

I had driver issue for side loading even after Installing OnePlus drivers windows wanted to use standard ADB drivers
Download the Android SDK kit first. Then plug in your OP5 to your PC and you should see something called "CD Drive (F: ) OnePlus Drivers". Click on it and it will install the OP5 drivers. Then enable developer options on your phone, by hitting the build number 7 times. Then go into developer settings and enable USD debugging. After that, go to the Android SDK folder and go to tools/platform tools, then hold shift and right click and open a command/powershell window and type adb devices. After that you should receive a fingerprint notification on your phone so just say yes to it. Ten type in adb devices again in the command/powershell window and it should be able to detect your device. I said everything from scratch so I hope it sort of helps!
What exactly do you want to accomplish. Because I just flashed everything on my phone. When the phone was running normal ADB was not recognized in my phone. However when I was in bootloader mode I got to unlock my bootloader and flash TWRP.

Do you have Windows? If yes, what version? With 10, I know they work a 100% for sure. With 7, after installing these, there is still a yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager. To resolve that, right click on the device in Device Manager, uninstall the driver. Then, reconnect the device after enabling USB Debugging, and then let windows download the required drivers from Windows Update. It should be ~8.5 MB. Once it's downloaded and installed automatically, you should be good to go.
