Hi,
I enabled USB debugging on my HTC desire and want to connect to the ADB.
However, the device shows up in my Windows 7 device manager as "Unknown Device". I tried to use the SDK USB driver, but it would not take it.
Any advice how to fix this?
thanks!
Did you install HTC Sync?
DUH. Thanks. Now it worked.

Hi all,
I just bought a Galaxy Nexus and I'm having problems with the ADB port: my Lenovo w520 laptop running win7x64 simply does not detect the ADB device in device manager. I tried connecting the phone to my wife's laptop (HP running win7x64) and the ADB device is detected so it is not a problem of the phone or the cable. On my pc I only get the Galaxy Nexus MTP device and that is all.
It is not a matter of driver, there is simply no device detected hence it is not possible to send ADB command.
I do not know if it is related, but samsung USB mobile driver fails during installation without giving a valid reason.
anyone having similar problem ?
thanks

So... how do you know its not a driver issue? Sounds like one to me. Have you tried manually installing other drivers?
Well, what is actually strange is that:
1) if I connect the phone to my wife laptop with USB debugging ON and no driver installed (it's HER pc, I cannot install my stuff), a composite device with two devices (MTP and ADB) is detected.
2) in fastboot mode, my laptop detects the ADB port and install proper drivers; using Galaxy Nexus toolkit, I can successfully list my device.
When the phone is fully booted, my laptop simply see only the MTP device. If it were just a matter of driver i would simply get an Unknown device in win7 device manager...
thanks
cheers

Eh. Fastboot is all you need. :thumbup:

After several attempts (including installing win7 x64 in a virtual machine ...) I finally solved my problem: it was indeed a driver issue, my win7 did not automatically searched for proper driver (and the Samsung driver is available on-line in windows update). I forced a driver update for the MTP device so that windows downloaded Samsung driver and now both the phone and ADB port are detected and working. It is still a mystery why the driver provided by various tool-kit failed to install, but nonetheless the GNex is now fully set-up.
Actually the solution is so dumb that I feel a bit ashamed of myself...
thank

Ok so I have a rooted nexus 7 that won't show up as an mtp device ever since I rooted another nexus 7 on the same computer. I have uninstalled all the drivers and re installed them a million times with device manager and USBDview nothing works. It connects to other computers as an mtp device, however ever since I rooted the other nexus 7 on the same computer it won't work. Also I don't have access to the other nexus because it was my friends. Obviously it's a computer issue because it connects to other computers as an mtp. I'm really out of things to try as I have searched for this problem, but only found people saying to re install the drivers. I would really appreciate some help because I don't know what to do. Thanks.

I also have weird issues. What I usually do is make sure the Nexus is configured for only one connection. So for MTP mounting I have PTP unchecked and USB debugging unchecked. Then I plug into the computer.
If it doesn't mount as MTP, I find it's usually because Windows has attempted to connect via ADB drivers. So I go into Device Manager and uninstall the device under "Android" while checking the box to remove drivers for the device. Then I unplug the Nexus and plug it back in, and it uses MTP drivers. I've always struggle with these driver issues for the Nexus, i don't know why it's so difficult. Good luck!
When I had issues with my mtp I had to uninstall adb drivers then plug my device back in so it would use mass storage and install the drivers. Somehow I have adb and mass storage working now with USB debugging on.
Check in device manager when you have adb uninstalled and see what your device comes up as.

I uninstall the adb drivers but for some reason windows automatically installs them right back instead of mtp drivers and then if I go to update drivers and select mtp as an option it says it won't work
When I try to install the mtp drivers it says "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while trying to install it...your device can't start" Then it automatically installs the adb drivers. What would be the reason it won't let me install the mtp usb drivers? Has anyone else encountered this?
Hi!
I have a very annoying problem. My HTC M8 is not recognized by my new Windows 8.1 Professional System.
If I connect the phone to my PC Windows plays the "new device" sound but nothing more happens. Neither in normal MTP-Mode nor in the USB debugging mode. I checked out the Windows device manager but the phone is not listed.
First I thought that it might be a problem with the Android Revolution HD 7.0 ROM, but the phone works on my notebook (Windows 7) without installing any special drivers. And my old Samsung Galaxy Nexus works with Windows 8.1.
I installed the HTC Sync Manager... didn't help.
I installed the HTC Driver package... didn't help.
I installed the Universal ADB Driver... didn't help either.
Then I tried different USB ports.. nothing

I had the same issue and I believe it's because the Samsung Gnex drivers are still on your computer. Use Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit to completely uninstall all drivers related to the Gnex, restart, and then plugin the M8. Windows will most likely install all the necessary drivers automatically.
No, it's still not working. I removed ALL Samsung and HTC driver (with uninstaller and USBDeview), restarted my PC and plugged in my HTC. Windows plays the sound and USBDeview shows three new HTC devices with the assigned drive letters F: and L:. But the drives are not assigned and ADB cannot find the M8.
Ok, now it's getting strange.
I reinstalled the HTC driver again from the hasoon2000 website. And now, my M8 appears
under the available storage devices. But only when I disable the USB debugging! If debugging is enabled still nothing happens! :crying:
As a last try I have installed the "Universal ADB driver" again... didn't change anything.
I really don't know what's going wrong.
The M8 works on my Win7 notebook, my Win7 PC at work and it worked well on my develop PC (in a peaceful coexistence with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus), before I installed Windows8.1 (fresh install, no upgrade!) :crying:

Hi Guys!
I have the same problem with my HTC One M8 - can't connect it to my computer with windows 8.1
I've already disabled windows driver signature enforcement in advanced pc settings.
Please tell me how to then install that downloaded drivers via device manager.
When I try to update the driver and select the path to that driver, I receive a message : the best driver is already installed.
Please help me!
Thank you!
sorry for the noob question

Where is the exact advance pc setting to disable this?
I have windows 8.1 and my pc does not recognize my m8. It is connected and charging though, and I am using a USB 2.0 port. USB debugging on. On the device managers, no device shows up. I uninstall all HTC Drivers aswell. Any help? I just need it to have a yellow explanation mark device on device managers, and I know what to do from there.
I tried download HTC drivers but the htcdriver.exe won't bring up an installation window. I'm running out of time as I need to return to stock quickly before Wednesday.

Try this solution.
[Q] Device not recognized by Windows 8.1
Have you tried different cables and usb ports? A different pc as a last resort?
Make sure you have no other phone drivers installed (Samsung, etc.) and make sure all HTC drivers are uninstalled. Make sure you don't accept the option to automatically install HTC Sync when you connect the phone. After that, you should get the yellow exclamation point in Device Manager. Select the option to manually select the drivers, and pick the generic Android MTP device (or some similar description).
hello guys, just bought that amazing watch today i have an issue. How can i connect it to my pc ? I plug in the usb, while sm3 is off. Win7 start to install and at the end it fails because of the drivers. So my pc doesn't recognise it. I can only see the "empty" E:/ Disk. Any suggestion ?
edit: unistalled the "watch" and then plugged in again and drivers get istalled. Now i have a "sony file-cd usb gadget" . help me pls
edit: wrong section :/ sorry
I have exactly the same problem.
i installed the Google USB Driver from theAndroid SDK Manager and also installed the Sony PC Companion. But the Smartwatch 3 still shows in the device manager under "other devices" without installed driver.
The only way i could connect to it is using ADB over Bluetooth which is really slow.
Anyone any idea?
i used these adb drivers http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
after installation, i went to device manager, update drivers, search pc for drivers, choose from a list of...., and then i selscted adb testing interface version 3.12.0.0
i had to skip the warnin popup, but adb is working fine
Thank you a lot.
i could not find any "adb testing interface" so i installed "Google Nexus 7 ADB Interface" from the list and so far it seems to work with that too.
Not sure why you have such a testing interface driver.
Did this HERE and no driver problem for me.
Drivers can be found in this folder : Program Files (x86)/Sony/Sony PC Companion/Drivers/
The Driver used in the bootloader is a different one. I have no issue there.
But it seems there is no actual ADB Driver used when the device is in normal operation mode for debugging apps or pushing apps directly over ADB on to the device.
