Adb help - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I plugged in my phone to the computer and adb didn't work. I tried really installing the sdk along with adb but no luck I get an error when doing "adb devices" it stays "devices found" and like when I type "adb shell" it says no devices found? Any ideas on why this is happening?

Did you get the drivers for your phone or no?

Are you sure debugging is checked?

Yes I'm not that much of a noob. Just Idk one day it stopped working and I tried really installing the sdk but still nothing

I'm having the same issues. I can see the driver that is needed to be installed but it will not let me do so. It keeps saying that the driver can not be found... Is there anything else I need to install so I can root my slide?

Are all you guys running windows 7? Windows 7 has issues w/ these drivers. There was a thread somewhere in the q&a section that has a link to the working drivers. The thread was called "waiting for device" I think. Those drivers helped me w/ adb on win 7 x64

No I'm running Vista

I would try it anyways, since 7 is based on vista, and vista drivers work w/ windows 7

Cyanogen6/flash question

I found an apk of flash 10.1, it installed successfully through adb, but when I tried to open any browser, it would eventually return to the home screen. Uninstall through adb resolved the issue.
Anyone know a work around to get it going?

Pda-net on my laptop?

Hi everyone I have been reading and so far I guess the only thing that works for tethering is pda net...
Well I have a dell laptop and I plugged my phone into it... how do I get it to work?

You need to download and install the pdanet app on your laptop. Do a Google search. It should be easy to find. There are different versions depending what OS you are running.

Easy Tether also works. I have yet to try PDA Net even though I have it installed.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Nice. Is easy tether working good?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2
Pdanet also installs the adb drivers necessary for the g2 so you can get screen caps thru the dalvik debug monitor if you have the sdk
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I have pdanet and easy tether. There both pretty simple and easy to use. Pda installs the drivers but easy tether costs less. Easy tether was the only one that recognized the adb on my phone to computer and actually allowed me to command prompt into my phone so I can root it. So they are both good id say

The universal androot does not work on our phones. Signature verification will fail unless you go through an actual root method.

What do you mean 'slight spacing adjustment'? Most code people put up on here is posted exactly how it should be entered - if not, others post the correction and it's changed. If there is a space LEAVE IT, it's supposed to be there. If there are 2 spaces, then just delete one because it's a mistake. If there is no space - don't put one in.
I made the some mistake once or twice in the beginning
I understand that but I've tried two different tutorials and followed them verbatim and its still not working

There's only ONE working method, the one by Nbetcher.
The Unlockr method does NOT work.
The old method by Eugene_373 does NOT work.
The universal androot method does NOT work.

Epic 4G Root {Mac users, I need help}

I've already got the 3 files on the Mac OS X. (Modem, Kernal, and ROM). They are extracted as md5.
Now here's my problem, when I try putting my phone in Download mode, it's like it won't connect to the Mac and I get a message on the laptop saying "(Gadget {something} is not configured.) (I forgot the second part to Gadget) Anyways, I click on configure, and it tells me to put in some info like: Account, password etc. Now I'm not paying the bill, so I don't know the account or password. I tried checking some options for USB settings. I tried connecting with debugging on and off. Still nothing.
Again, I have the files and everything I need, my problem is connecting while in download mode.
Maybe there's another method for installing a Root on the Epic 4G while using Mac?
Help is greatly appreciated.

Even when the phone ISN'T in download mode, it won't connect. I'd have to use AirDroid.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Wait! I didn't install the Samsung/ANDROID Drivers, because this Mac isn't mine, so I don't know how. Maybe thats the problem?
Can someone please explain how to install the Samsung/Android Kies to a Mac?!?
Again, any help is greatly appreciated.

I booted into windows to root so I doubt ill be much help. First of all OSX recognizes my epic without drivers. Second, odin does not work on OSX and as I understand you have to use a program called heimdal. In general I've found rooting much easier in windows.
Sent from your mom's place.
I'll get that program later. I'll check that out to see if that works.
But my phone still won't connect to the Mac.

Optimus won't connect to my PC

what rom? Though, i've never had any success getting it working again without switching roms.
I'm using cm11 and it doesn't work on optimus de either

You could try reinstalling the lg drivers on the computer. Is it recognized in windows device manager or does is not come up there as well?
Yeah, I just recently had this problem as well, except I didn't get to eat cake :[. Mine does show up in device manager, but not in drives/storage. I've been having to upload everything via dropbox or adb. I was on cm11 with cwmr and switched to cmremix and also switched to the philz touch, logically I think it might be one of those or a combination of the two that did it, but I can't be sure cause I know how my phone can just be finicky sometimes.
Edit: I did try updating to the latest lg driver and that didn't help.
I'm getting this also, I use airdroid or TeamViewer instead as a workaround
