ADB device - unauthorized - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I've got a problem; my device is not seen properly by latest Minimal ADB (unauthorized), I've tried many solutions such: reconnecting, re-enabling usb debbuging, restarting adb servers, deleting adbkey file from /.android. Is there something else I can do? Thanks in advance,
Paul

You are using linux? If yes, try sudo.....
If not, do not restart device in fastboot and plug it in pc. Plug it when booted in system and type adb reboot bootloader. Be sure to have adb turned on in developer options.

After doing what u said; I've got:
This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set
Try 'adb kill server' if that seems wrong.
Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device."
I've already done kill/start multiple times. What's more, I have no RSA popup whatsoever.

Go to developers options and click on revoke usb debugging authorizations and conform the prompt.
No reconnect the device to PC and check for RSA prompt in phone and accept it.

I haven't got revoke option, I believe it is due to custom kernel I installed, so the question is if I install custom ROM, the kernel is going to be reinstalled with ROMs one, what should I do tho?

This should fix it.
1. Go to the /.android folder and take copy of "adbkey.pub" file.
2. Rename copy as "adbkeys" Without any file extension.
3. Move "adbkeys" into your phone /data/misc/adb
4. Not sure if necessary but set permissions to 640 (-rw-r-----)
5. You might need to restart adb server "adb kill-server"
Now when you try it should work as expected.

It didn't work.

Reinstall phone driver. It may work

Did it and nothing.

Factory reset your phone it will then prompt for RSA Key.

Did factory reset, but it didn't help, I'm on custom emui with elsa kernel.

What are you wanting to do with ADB?
What is your end goal?
Is there another way of doing it?
Another stupid question have you tried a different cable as I have had the same issue it was the cable

I want to try custom roms, and flash new TWRP, and what if I flash new rom then I'll want to go back, but can't coz I cannot connect to adb.
I was able to make it work; I restored backup.

I mean, fastboot is the one you need in order to flash twrp. Does it not recognise your phone if you plug it in while in fastboot mode?

Can no longer connect via adb

Now I know your first thought “I bet this tool didn’t even use Search like the rest of the shlubs on here”. Well you are mistaken. I have not only searched xda but even tried Google and Yahoo (just in case) as well. I have found numerous posts (like HERE and HERE and many others) with similar situations but haven’t seen a resolution. Here is the rundown:
Running JF’s 1.5 CRB21 ROM
Hard SPL (HSPL10.95.3000)
JF’s 1.43 Recovery Image
SDK 1.5_r1
Fastboot.exe placed in System32
Haykuro’s Updated Drivers placed in System32
Windows XP 2002 SP3
I have been able to flash nandroid backups without issue in the past but adb started intermittently not recognizing my phone when I flashed from JF’s RC33 to JF’s 1.5. I was able to restore a backup once but now adb will not recognize my phone at ALL. Tried different USB plugs and cables with no result. If I mount the phone to view the SD card via Windows Explorer it shows as “HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface” in Device Manager. However if I boot into the Bootloader (which I have the Hard SPL HSPL10.95.3000) , connect via USB, hit back to go into Fastboot, and try to flash a nandroid backup I get "Waiting on Device" infinitely. “Adb shell” yields “Device Not Found”. The "adb devices" command yields a blank list. But if I type "Fastboot Reboot" it will reboot the phone so I know it is communicating and the cable is in good order. I have deleted my SDK and drivers and re-downloaded/installed them and STILL cannot get adb to connect. It has to be something simple I am missing here right? Any idea why this would have worked without issue in the past and now not at all? Could it have been a Windows Security update? (That's about the only thing I can thing that has changed other than the newer ROM)
Thank you for your help.
Did you update you USB Drivers or try reloading them?
Also.... Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging has to be checked....
and stop being a tool.
nah im jk.
USB Debugging is checked - thanks Senorkabob for at least trying to help.
Phoenix - I apologize for posting in the wrong place. If I could move it, I would. I apparently missed the "How to be a Good Xda Citizen" thread... I shall repent
Could you choose View -> "Devices by Connections" in Device Manager and uninstall the USB Root Hub device your android is connected to. This should clean up all the device nodes and allow you a clean start. Click "Scan for hardware changes" in the toolbar and wait for the system to detect your phone. In the new hardware detected wizard, make sure you specify the path to drivers folder of the correct architecture, i.e. x86 or x64.

Thanks man - I was able to install the drivers but am still unable to view my device. It shows as "HTC Dream" in Device Manager but when I run "adb devices" in the command line, it yields a blank list. Further commands (I.e. adb shell) say "cannot find device. Running fastboot commands result in "waiting on device". This happens on both my laptop and my home pc so I am beginning to think it's the phone. Should I have something loaded on the phone? I have USB Debugging checked so that's not it. Any ideas?
possibly the problem is that ADB does not work in Bootloader mode, it is designed to work while the phone is running.
However if I boot into the Bootloader (which I have the Hard SPL HSPL10.95.3000) , connect via USB, hit back to go into Fastboot, and try to flash a nandroid backup I get "Waiting on Device" infinitely. “Adb shell” yields “Device Not Found”.

Yuo are obviously trying this in bootloader mode, underline for emphasis.
try >fastboot devices
see if that shows you your phone
Otherwise try ADB while in the OS already.

Can't connect to adb shell after Damagecontrol 2.1 ROM update

I have my 2.1 DamageControl ROM running fine (thx damage!). I'm just trying to connect to adb. I'm on win7, 64bit.
I used to connect fine when I was on fresh 1.1.
I thought it was b/c I had an outdated sdk, which I did. I upgraded from v3 to v5, and made sure I downloaded all the latest, including the latest usb driver.
I also checked to make sure I have HTC sync 2.08.
but I just keep getting this.

Try this. It worked for me with Windows 7.

I started at Step II. Reinstall Drivers since I already had the SDK.

Link no worky.
I had this same problem. Go into your device manager and reinstall your ADB driver. If you're in the same situation I was in, it'll have a "!" on the ADB item in your list. Right click ADB, update driver, pick from a list of available drivers... or something like that. In the list it gives you, you should see something along the lines of "Android ADB Interface." Pick that... it may give you some kind of warning but install it anyway and you're done.
Try this,
adb kill-server
abd start-server

@crunchy - hm, I don't see any adb driver reference
I also went to device mgr in win7, and yeah, it has the !, but when I tried to update, it still failed. I even tried pointing to the usb driver folder in my android sdk, but it didn't like it. maybe something specific to win7 64bit?
Maybe I need to install the drivers manually? But what driver should I look for, for this Damagecontrol 2.1 ROM Sprint Hero now?
Did you make sure to enable debugging?
I don't have a link handy, but just go to the HTC support site for the Eris and download the latest HTC sync. It will fix your drivers, no fuss and straight forward.

Yes, tried with it off, and on. I also tried reinstalling HTC sync 2.08.
I didn't tell you to reinstall sync 2.0.8
Go here http://member.america.htc.com/download/Driver/DROID_ERIS_Verizon/HTCSync2.0.25.zip
And install THAT version of sync it has the proper drivers.
Think I told you to go to the Eris page by accident? Think again. Do it, fix your problem and let's all move on.
Sorry for being so blunt, just frustrated you that you wrote off my original suggestion, responding that you already tried reinstalling the same version of sync that wasn't working in the first place. If you paid attention to my first tip this would have already been solved.

Try your own link. It doesn't have a link to the Eris page.

Must be a problem with the htc site, the link I provided was a direct link. I'll see if I can find another
Edit: now you do have some kind of weirdness going on. If that didn't work.
First make sure you have done the following... reboot pc and phone. Usb debugging enabled. Then connect phone attempt and shell and copy error here.
Also a question, did you install sync 2.0.8 prior to installing the 2.0.25version ?
A few other possible steps you could try.
Go to your start menu and type cmd one you see the cmd icon pop up in the menu rightclick and run as administrator. Then,
adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb shell
If you still get device not found try: adb devices and paste the output here.

noob help requires, Setting up phone for USB boot.

Hi guys.
Sorry for this noobish post, but i cannot remember for the life of me on how to install things by using 'adb' - i know there is an option on the phone, but where bouce is it? I used it when rooting, but i just cant find it.
I'm trying to install a new boot image, but when i go into cmd i type "adb remount" and the reply is "device not found"... AndroidSDK is in my C directory.
Another EDIT; I just rebooted my device into the recoverymode, and i didn't see ndroid back up thing, does that mean my phone hasn't actually been rooted... - But my phone is deffently debranded.
Thanks if anyone can help my noobish style.
Slim.
When in recovery mode you must have the driver installed. If you enter 'adb devices' it should give you the serial number of your device, if the driver is installed correctly.
To enter the recovery menu you must run the recovery-windows.bat from modaco if using windows or a similiar file (recovery-linux.sh, recovery-mac.sh) according to your operating system. The file should be run when in recovery-mode or else it returns a whole bunch of errors.
Awesome, thanks mate. Just what i needed! Could i have advice what driver i need to be able to acsess the adb?
I just use the driver supplied in the newest version of ADB.
You can get it here. usb_driver.rar
Or else just install HTC Sync from htc.com. It also has the driver files needed.
Remember to have USB Debuging enabled from the Programs/Development menu.

[Q] ADB error: device unauthorized and device offline

I'm currently getting some strange errors while trying to control my N4 over adb.
http://prntscr.com/1km24i
On Ubuntu I get "device unauthorized" and on Windows 8 I get "device offline".
Same thing happens over USB.
Any idea?
PS: I'm currently on 4.2.2. I where on 4.3 yesterday but installed 4.2.2 again after some strange errors.

As the message have stated, you need to allow the adb access on your phone.
You need to first connect the phone to your PC with USB cables, then the authorization message will pop out on the screen. Tick remember your choice, then allow it.

I just got my phone back from LG (the mainboard "Fried"). I have the new update pushed to the phone. I have to re-root the phone now as its basically a new phone.
I am getting the Device offline as well message in ADB. As I don't have root, how can I fix this error? I can't navigate to that particular directory. I had no authotization message show up on my computer when I plugged the phone in for the first time... so not sure how to get past this...

This shouldn't be happening on new phone, because the key won't be created if you haven't authorized it.
Can you check your adb version? Try updating it with android sdk manager.
I am going to try and re-download the ADB SDK. I think it's an issue with whatever version I downloaded. I've tried to run the ADB Manager.exe and nothing happens. Currently flying to London so it will have to wait until I get back. Nice of LG to fix my phone and they didn't charge me a dime. Although I did lose everything.
Hello,
I'm having the same problem "Please check the confirmation dialog on your device", but there is no such dialog on the device.
Things I tried and DID NOT SOLVE:
1) Remove /data/misc/adb/* - Failed, there was nothing there (full wipe before flash a new rom)
2) Try different ROMs - Failed, tried AOKP Milestone 1 and 2 and CM10. Dialog never showed up.
3) Try different usb cable OR usb port - Failed, adb is recognized, but no confirmation dialog on the device (device shows as unauthorized)
4) Removed all drivers and installed them again - Failed, same problem;
5) Updated android-sdk (or full delete and reinstall [remembering to adb kill-server]) - Failed, problem continues even with platform-tools up-to-date.
6) Removed all folder C:\Users\Myself\.android - Failed, it was never recreated;
7) Tried to connect via adb over wifi, device is found but unauthorized persists;
Things that gave me some clues:
1) Reboot to recovery mode allowed me to use ADB without any authorization (only while in recovery);
2) Recovery sideload works without any problem;
3) HOWEVER, when connecting to another computer (Windows XP, fresh install on a virtual machine), dialog appears and adb works!
The scenario:
1) Devices tried: Galaxy Nexus / Galaxy S3 I9300
2) ROMs tried: AOKP (4.2.2) / CM10 (4.2.2)
3) Windows 7 x64
The problem is on the computer side, that's a fact. However, I would like to SOLVE it without having to reformat my computer, or change my OS.
Where to start?
Thanks!

After removing your .android directories, you need to restart the adb server to send fresh credentials to the phone.
First unplug the phone from your computer, then run:
Code:
$ adb kill-server
$ adb start-server
Now plug your phone back in and you should see a dialog on the device asking to confirm new credentials for your computer.
After confirming the credentials you should be able to connect to your device.
I hope that this helps...

I know that this post is old, but I came across the same problem while attempting to root my Galaxy S4 today. This ended up being the solution:
1. Grant yourself root access on the PC that is running adb
2. Remove RSA Keys:
rm /home/username/.android/*
3. Restart adb server:
adb kill-server
adb start-server
I hope that this helps.
SOLVED!
I guess I should have read the previous post before I posted this but anyway maybe this helps.
I had this happen to my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 SCH-I545 running 4.3 (VRUEM2K) after I rooted using saferoot, then removed the SuperSU app using SuperSU's so-called "safely unroot" menu option. It will no longer request the RSA key from the Ubuntu system I previously authorized (and used to root) and won't re-root using saferoot or motochopper. But since I dual-boot Windows 7 (I hardly use it, came with the laptop), I figured I'd give Odin a try and re-flash it to stock which didn't do anything to the "custom" flag and I still got "unauthorized" in adb in Ubuntu, but I noticed it does show up fine with adb in Windows. I tried the windows verison of saferoot and it was able to re-root my phone and re-install SuperSU just fine. Phone still showed "unauthorized" in Ubuntu.
After posting this I saw the previous comment saying to rm -rf ~/.android/ in Ubuntu. I also cleared all previously authorized computers and disable dev mode on my phone, rebooted, turned dev mode back on, rebooted again. Not sure if this helped, but I went through the following steps as root:
[email protected]:~# adb kill-server
[email protected]:~# adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
15506b89 unauthorized
At this point I pretty much said "F it, not gonna work" and walked away to get a snack, leaving my phone plugged in. I was only gone a couple minutes and when I came back, the RSA authorization request had popped up on my phone. I checked the box to always allow this computer and authorized it. Then SUCCESS, as seen below:
[email protected]:~# adb devices
List of devices attached
15506b89 device
Removing the .android directory seemed to do it, but you need to wait a few minutes for the computer to re-request the RSA key.
after a week of searching. I NEVER KNEW it pop to accept to authorized. WOW cant believe it... after reading this thread im lol'ding right now.
I had tried to kill adb etc but keep saying aunauthorized. solution was to reboot my phone with usb connected,after boot it the dialog to connect appear and my s4 got authorized. backup success.
thanks to the adb kill-server guy! worked for me

The popup to allow usb debugging from my computer doesn't popup when I connect my phn

The popup to allow USB debugging from my computer doesn't popup when I connect my Oneplus 5 to my computer, and thus ADB devices comes back empty. This is only happening for my PC on stock Rom. When I tried installing another Rom, the popup to allow USB debug option comes and the phone is getting detected in my PC. Even on stock Rom, in another PC popup to allow usb debug option comes, only in my PC stock Rom it is not getting detected. Not sure whats and wheres the issue(PC or Phone)?!
I I've rooted my phone before and it was working fine previously and it stopped being detect after OB10 . I looked online too and tried options like restarting, turning debugging off and on, revoke USB authorization etc...... nothing works Please HELP!!!!

If you have a folder named '.android' in your User Directory, delete it and then try again. If this doesn't work uninstall your current ADB software and reinstall the Platform Tools package:

I've had this once or twice and that always did the job.

On the Stock ROM, where you are having the trouble, does your PC see the phone when you connect it. i.e does it show up as a device in Explorer and Device Manager? When you enable MTP can you transfer files?
As it's only a problem on the OOS ROM, i wonder if it's a Driver issue. When you installed the Platform Tools, did you install the Google USB Drivers?
Also have a look here. There may be some useful information:

i had a same problem like you
had the same problem on my phone (manually added the adb public key to get access), only got fixed by factory reset. the popup just didnt show no matter what, even though adb worked.
