[Q] Need help rooting... adb devices = nothing - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I cracked my lcd and just received a replacement from insurance... it wont show a device so I can root it.
What's is there to check in order for the device to show? I have reinstalled the HTC drivers and restarted my system but nothing.
What is the best way to root 2.3.3?
Thanks!

already checked... i found this on another site, but am not sure what "Disk Mode" is
I type “adb devices” and get no serial number!
That means your drivers aren’t installed correctly or your phone isn’t in Disk Mode or USB debugging is not check on, please check those three and you should be good to go!

When you connect to the computer, you should see the usb icon in the status bar. Make sure it says charge only for adb to work. Might also want to download HTC sync or get the android usb drivers from unrevoked.

used another computer... everything is great now
must be a driver issue on my laptop
thanks for the help though!

Re-install the sdk, and make sure you have the two adb.dll files, as sometimes they are missing, and cause it not to work.

Device not recognized

"USB Device Not Recognized"
I have searched for so long trying to figure out what's wrong. I'm out of idea's on how to fix it, nothing will recognize my Evo.
Tried on 4 different computers, two of them running 7, one running xp, and last running vista, all say the same thing, computers not the problem.
Downloaded htc sync, disabled/enabled usb debugging, restarted the phone many times, restarted computers, and even changed the default usb connection to HDD and HTC sync.
I rooted using the idiot proof guide and used the Sprint Rom he linked in the guide. Would love some help. Thanks!
Try downloading the auto sync app in market
And let me know what happens.

Just tried that and still not recognizing it.
Which HTC Sync did you try? I think the latest is 2.0.40
http://www.htc.com/us/support/evo-sprint/downloads/
set the EVO connection type to HTC SYNC and USB DEBUGGING ENABLED.
Assuming you've used ADB, what response you you get from
ADB DEVICES at the command prompt?
you should get something like
C:\>adb devices
adb server is out of date
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
HT05EHL10353 device
and we will know you have a good physical connection to the computers. If it doesnt show up, try a different USB cable....
also can try this helpful link...

Thanks for the help! I checked for my device in ADB and it does not list it, so i guess my cable is probably bad. I'll go out and buy another and hopefully that fixes the problem.

When i connect my phone in recovery mode, it still just says device not recognized, so i can't really do that.
Sorry but bump, i relly need help with this.
It still says unknown device when i try to connect my phone in recovery mode.
Go into your computers device manager and uninstall the device and htc sync, then reinstall sync and make sure usb debugging is on then plug it in
Edit: sorry, go into the device manager with it plugged in. if its not there (should be a yellow or red triangle next to it or neat the to as a HID) them it could be your cable or phones port.

Just tried that and it's a no go, still the same problem, Also tried another cable today and that didn't help either.
I have light leakeage at the bottom of my phone, so i think i'm going to take it in for that and just get a replacement.

I think you need to pay closer attention to the guide, because this statement makes no sense in reference to the guide.
The guide is helping you install ADB drivers, you don't need to do anything in ADB while your phone is in recovery in that guide.
Could be wrong, but I'm still fairly certain that the guide will fix your issue, because I had the same problem.
It's as simple as you do not have the correct, or any ADB drivers, therefore your phone is not showing up as a device under ADB. Once you have the proper drivers installed, your device will show up.

I followed the simple guide step by step.
When i boot into recovery mode i end up with this in the picture.
His recovery mode shows an Evo with a little exclamation mark next to it, i'm guessing what i got is still recovery mode. But still if i plug my phone in my computer still says unknown device, so i can't install ADB drivers.

You just have a different recovery. Once you are in recovery, you don't need to do anything else on your phone specifically.
Instead, connect your phone to your PC via USB if it isn't already and open up device manager on your PC and follow the rest of the guide.
Edit: Where does it say unknown device? In Device Manager?

It shows up in usb controllers instead of other devices as he shows in the guide. If i try to update the driver it just tells me it's already up to date.
>Sorry yea it does say unknown device in device manager.
Gotta bump, would really love to just fix this instead of driving 30 mins to a sprint store.
So i followed the guide for installing apb drivers, but even in recovery mode my phone still shows up as unknown device in device manager.
Ok, well I just ran into this myself on my secondary computer. Have you tried a different USB port on your PC?
My front ones were giving me unknown device, but as soon as I plugged it into one of the ports on the back of the mobo ADB showed right up in device manager.
Factory reset it and get it exchanged.I belief is the SD card failure issue.

I have the same problem and posted this question on 3 forums including the HTC support forum and nobody has been able to find the correct solution.
I know the cable and the port is good because I can connect my Samsung Moment to it and it works perfectly. On the Evo, I've downloaded the latest HTC Sync from the official HTC site, tried the one on the microsd card, checked and un-checked USB debugging, and still it doesn't connect.
The Evo won't connect to my Win 7 computer at home, Win XP at work, but it will connect to my daughters computer which is running Win XP also (all 32 bit).
I bought this Evo from Best Buy exactly 28 days ago today. Do they give you 30 days to return it, or is that only the Sprint store?
They do give u 30 day trial.go get it exchanged or...........

[Q] Code 43

I recently broke my HOX+ and got a GNex for my replacement. Whenever I try to connect it, using another cable (Nexus 7) because its stock cable did not come with the phone (used) I get that pop up which says "Unable to recognize device" or sometimes an error. Though on all events, I get something called Error 43.
Anyone know how to fix this? Ive tried fixing to usb port. It is all stock. I just want to connect so I can root this thing.

Yes, Windows 7. Those were the ones and I want to root, but I can't even connect my phone. I'll plug in my GNex and it will charge through the computer though it will not be recognized nor connected for storage purposes.

One thing you may want to try if you havent yet:
My Computer -> Right Click -> Properties -> Device Manager (On Sidebar) -> Find the GNex Drivers currently installed and remove them and reinstall (Re-plug) your phone so that the drivers can re-install.
Is this a used or new replacement?

Unfortunately, the device appears as Unknown Device. It was my Uncles and it was able to work for him. So it bothers me how its not for me. At times even, when I connect the USB to the Device, it causes my Computer to Shut Down abnormally. So, either something is wrong and I need to fix it...or this phone is haunted,

Even after deleting it?
Did he by chance have it rooted prior to the ownership change?
Is the result replicated in other computers? If you haven't tried, do so. That way you can eliminate either your PC or the GNex as the culprit.

He was stock at all times. Though when I got it, it seemed to be freshly restored...but 5 minutes into using the phone, it froze and gave a fixed screen of something being flashed...though even after I factory restored it again...It wont connect to my All in One PC, Desktop or Laptop, every other device I own connects properly .

Wierd. Did you try a reset through the stock recovery or just defaults from the security menu?
Here's what I've done. I've pulled my drivers and compressed them. Update the "Unknown Device" from the Device Manager by pointing it to the extracted DLL's and see if that will work.

Honestly, I'm stumped. The drivers should have installed correctly regardless. This leads me to believe that its the GN acting up. Again, when you did a reset on it; Did you do it from the Security Submenu or from the Stock Recovery?
Is the device recognized under fastboot? ADB usually works fine there.

Wow, I'm truly amazed how nothing seemed to work. I don't think 1-Click Temp-Root Methods work on the GN, in which case you would use the terminal to Perm-Root it.
This happens on all computers?
Tried Different USB ports?
Rebooting PC?

[Q] Device undetected by Windows.

After going through a replacement process (twice) after cracking the screen on my first device, I was relieved to find that the replacement I got sent wasn't updated to un-moddable status. However, after using rumrunner to s-off, flashing cwm 6.0.4.8 recovery, and using that to install cm11 m6 snapshot, I was disappointed to find that my phone will not connect to Windows in a manner where I can access USB storage. Enabling debugging in dev options does initiate the "device plugin sound" from Windows, but after looking in device manager, all that shows up there is "Android ADB Interface". When debugging is disabled, Windows makes no sounds, and there is nothing in the device manager. The only response i'm receiving is that the charge light on the device comes on. I would try to install drivers, but seeing as the computer doesn't even recognize that a device is plugged in, i'm pretty much halted on that front. Any comments or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

Device Shown as Offline after GPe rom flash

Hi all,
I rooted my M8 recently with the Windroid toolkit. Everything worked great, and I flashed the digitalhigh GPE rom and love it.
Now when I try to connect my phone to my computer, I do not receive the prompt for RSA key trust. My phone shows offline on my 8.1 VM and it is just not found on my Windows 7 machine. It also shows offline on a Macbook Air. I have tried everything I can find to get USB debugging to start working again but I just can't seem to find out what needs to be done. I have the latest version of the HTC drivers I believe and I should have the latest add drivers. On Sense, I had to turn on USB debugging and select the phone to be mounted as a disk drive for WinDroid to be able to root my phone.
So, how can I get this fixed? Is it an issue with the ROM? Is there some way that I can turn on a disk drive mode on the rom.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you.

Looking at device manager, it shows my phone in two different places. It shows once in 'other devices' as just android phone and then under 'portable devices' as the name of the phone.
When I go into detail under 'other devices', device manager show that drivers are not installed but says everything is installed correctly under 'portable devices'.
I have the latest version of Sync Manager, so by that reasoning I should have the latest version of the HTC drivers. What else would I need to get my phone to not show as offline?
Thank you

Uninstall Sync Manager. It doesn't play nice with ADB. The only thing it is good for if you are rooted is installing the drivers. After that, get rid of it.

Still having issues
Hello all,
I am still having issues with getting my computer to recognize that USB debugging is on and getting it connected to my computer with adb. I have uninstalled sync manager, and yet my phone is still not recognized.
Under debugging in developer options, the only thing I have checked is USB debugging.
Is there something else that needs to be checked in the developer options? Why do I still have this issue?
P.S. I would post pictures, but I can't unfortunately :\

Thanks for the reply bford152. Oddly, I do not have this option available to me.
I would like to post pictures of the options I have under USB debug. But even posting a link and not having it parse still tries to read it and says I cannot post outside links. Next question, how do I attach photos without adding it as a link to the post. Maybe I'm blind, because I cannot see an option to do this.
Thanks everyone!
What's your adb version ?
It needs 1.0.31 for Android 5.1 and 1.0.32 for Android 6.0 (minimum requirement)
Have you tried with a secured kernel/boot.img ? If you don't have "Revoke USB debugging authorizations" in Developer options - means that you have insecure kernel installed.

I have adb version 1.0.32, so all good there.
I don't seem to have "Revoke USB debugging authorizations". So, I have Elite kernel right now and I guess that's the issue. I will get a different kernel and see if that helps.

I'm not talking about fingerprint protection, when you switch to other modes aside form Charing when you have USB debugging turned on, if will prompt you to accept the computers fingerprint, meaning make alterations to your device.
You need to allow that, and if you're not getting that prompt, update your sdk tool, drivers, u install the drivers, reinstall them, try a different cable/USB port/ computer. Pretty much do all the basic trouble shooting.
My device was very picky about what port I could use

Can't check because I'm not home, all I know is I used minmal fastboot and adb tools because my windows uses powershell not cmd.
Doesn't Google link the newest on the page for their official images ?
Try running adb devices and see if it will make the prompt show up

Whatever works for you lol. Can promise you that this is not the ONLY device that can give issues on the first time getting adb to work. I've had it happen on two other devices that were Nexus units.

I hope someone still sees this post. I have a friends Google Pixel XL that I was able to revive from a bootloop by sideloading the latest OTA. Upon starting up, my friend forgot his screenlock passcode. I've been trying everything to get the device recognized in bootloader mode on my pc. It keeps showing up blank. I am trying to use ADB to bypass the unlock code. If anyone has an idea how I can get into this phone BEFORE I reset it, that would be very appreciated! It is not rooted and no unlocked bootloader.

You have to enable USB Debugging in settings in order to delete the unlock code. Unfortunately, you can't because he forgot it. You can try booting TWRP on the device using fastboot and see if you can delete the unlock code's key file using TWRP's file manager, but the reality here is that you likely will have to reset. Hope your friend didn't use a throwaway email address when setting up the device.
