[Q] Win7+bootloader=no drivers

Can not in any way get windows 7 to acknowledge my defy in bootloader or USB debugging mode no matter what I try.
Have an old WinXP laptop that I do all my rooting needs on, but I would like to know why the heck the motorola drivers for win7 don´t recognize their own product?
Have recently uninstalled the motorola package and reinstalled, letting the computer restart sufficiently in between, but nothing...
It finds the s flash omap3630 by name, but no driver for it. I have even let it search through the entire windows folder for it but nooo... nooooo!
Annoying to say the least.
Plus the fact that it works like clockwork (!) on the XP computer tells me that there´s something terribly wrong with motos win7 coding attempts.
Well... I'll probably try this for another week or so then give up and stab myself in the heart with a used fork!
...unless anyone wants to chip in!

Which "Motorola package" did you install? You need the USB driver.
http://developer.motorola.com/docstools/USB_Drivers/
Works like a charm for me on Win 7.

Problem Solved:
Had to go into the computer's Device Manager, find the OMAP3630 device, choose update driver and then browse the computer manually.
Pointed it to
c:\Program Files\Common Files\Motorola Shared\Mobile Drivers\Drivers\
-Then it installed correctly in bootloader mode.
Whew... I searched the motorola log file to see where they installed to (the drivers) and finally I cracked this nut! (Takes a nut to crack a nut)
There go! If anyone else has problems with this then here's the solution!

Yep, that is one of the packages I tried... That and 4.8.0 and a whole bunch of others (uninstalling inbetween) but no driver for bootloader or USB debugging in windows 7.
I really had to find the install folder myself and point the omap device to that folder manually.
Why the hell do they leave the device drivers in a "Program Files" folder instead of a "Windows" folder (like the ones drivers are supposed to go)?
And why does the installatiion package work flawless for most people but not for some?
Anyway... I don't care at this point. Problem solved.
If you have this problem, search for the driver manually in the folder I specified above. Then it kicks in!

[Q] MTP USb device failed to install

running motorolla defy with cyanogen mod 7
any idea how to get around the problem

I think you should go to Hardware Devices & manually select driver for your phone,
as it is showing MTP, you should manually select USB Transfer Device Or similar driver.
Best of luck

I have the same issue with my Defy on cyanogenMod 7

I have this problem after upgrade my windows 7 from 32bit to hp 64 version.

I am using win7 standard driver. Try to install Motorola Media Link if your windows doesn't have it. Click Update driver in Device Manager, and use advance, in pick driver, there're 2 compatible drivers, you can select it from there.

I tried that, but non of the drivers work. Thanks anyway.

Assuming you're using Windows 7,
-Right click on your [My Computer]
-Click [Device Manager]
-Check for MTP Devices, open it & Click on Update Software Driver
-Browse my computer for Driver Software, then Let me pick from List of drivers
-Choose USB & then Generic USB driver
It's gonna work perfectly fine then hopefully

Thanks but no go I guess it's a Win7 X64 problem. It doesn’t matter if it works or not. I never use the portal USB state anyway.
I'm just "anal" about stuff not working on my PC Usually I’m the guy who friends ask about Win problems . I guess it's time to step down from the throne. I didn’t think it would happened in my lifetime :=)

Works fine on w7 x64 enterprise.
Thx.

have tried it all,
no help, doesn't show my device as MTP device, even my nokia phone is recognized as MTP, but not defy with CM7

This could help you. For me it worked.
I have 'SuperOneClickv1.9.5-ShortFuse.Drivers.rar' on my computer. I've extracted the Motorola folder with drivers. Went to Device Manager, right click on MTP device and update driver - select manualy - browse to the previously extracted Motorola folder with drivers - select update. After few seconds the drivers were installed.
Here is the (dropbox) download link for RAR archive of the Motorola drivers (size 1.32 mb).

under devices and printers thought it shows all the motorola drivers installed fine

Phone isnt recognized in fastboot

Can anyone help me?
I'm running windows 8 64-bit, and I have an HTC One from VZW.
The phone is recognized via ADB, but whenever I get into the bootloader, it tells me the device isnt recognized and I can't do any fastboot commands with it. I was able to root and use fastboot on my N7 2013 from the same PC, so this is frustrating because I want to send my One in to sonic but if I can't DO anything when I s-off there's no point in sending it it.
If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
PS - I've only tried this PC, no others. It may work on my macbook but thats away for repair.

I would just install HTC Sync, sounds like it's a driver issue and HTC Sync will provide those needed new drivers for HTC.

So just install and plug my phone in and the drivers will be installed?

sorry, thought I read it installed all the new drivers, you could try using Google to find the HTC current drivers, I can give you the numbers I have on mine my cpu is win 7 64bit not sure if it'll help but when in "uninstall or change a program" my HTC BMP USB Driver driver # is 1.0.5375
and my HTC Driver Installer driver # is 4.0.1.001
can't say it this helps at all but this is the CPU I used that I fixed the issue with
Best of luck!

My BMP is the same but my HTC Driver Installer is 4.0.3.001
Maybe I can find that other one and it will work for me

Here is a previous post I made to another guy having the same problem. Not sure if this will help but this is what I did.
I had this problem too running windows 8 x64. I think my problem was that I installed the sdk first with google's USB driver and not HTC's driver. What I did to make it work is switch computers over to my wifes which at the time I hadn't installed anything on yet. I went to htcdev.com and went to the part of the site where it is step-by-step on how to unlock the bootloader. I installed the Java Runtime Environment on the link provided on the upper right side of the site, then I installed the HTC sync manager on the link provided as well. I had my phone connected to my computer usb 2.0 (not usb 3.0) the whole time and with USB debugging enabled (not in fastboot mode, but with phone normally on). After that I took the three files from the sdk that htc wants you to place in a separate folder and put them in c:\Android. I did not install anything from sdk this go around.. i just took the three files out and put them in a separate folder as instructed by htc. After that I opened cmd and directed it to the folder I placed the files in (cd c:\Android) and ran command "adb reboot bootlader" Once I did that and hit fastboot the "My HTC" in device manager no longer had an exclamation point. So in summary, I couldn't reverse the drivers from my computer that I installed first so I resorted to using my wife's computer that didn't have anything installed yet. I installed JRE, then HTC sync software, and just used the 3 files HTC wants from sdk and placed them into a separate folder. I didn't install anything from sdk. It all worked after that. I don't have instructions on how to reverse the usb drivers you have already installed because I couldn't figure it out... in fact, I formatted windows on my pc and am reinstalling. Hope this helps.

Yeah I'm going to try it out on my roommates laptop that only has samsung drivers and the ADB installed and see what happens. Can't reformat the PC cause it's my School desktop and I've got work on there.
Once my macbook pro comes back from repairs I'll use that though, since I've never had issues running adb commands on my mac

Found a soultion
After I tried almost everything I tried to improvise and try something totally different and it worked!
First uninstall the driver in the Device Manger and then press to update it >> then press Browse my Computer for driver Software >> then press on Let me pick from list.... >> in the list choose the Portable Devices >> choose MPT USB Drive !
And It works...
:good:

MPT USB Drive isnt one of my options
However I've found that it's microsofts USB3 drivers, which override the Intel ones.
I just got my macbook back from repairs and it has USB3 ports as well so I was worried it wouldnt work, but its working fine from there

I'm having this same problem and nothing I do is working. I even tried from another computer but had no luck. adb finds the phone fine but fastboot just won't work. This is keeping me from getting S-Off. Someone please help.
Edit: Nevermind I think the issue is that I'm using Windows 8.1

I'm having the same problem I'm windows 8 64bit...
I have a nagging feeling that it's pda net.. I need to look into it today sometime

Step-By-Step: Get USB 3 Ports Working on Win 8 (For Issues With ADB/Fastboot and RR)

You need to install Win7's USB drivers on Win8 in order to get ADB/Fastboot working on Win 8. I drove myself mad until some kind soul here (can't remember who) provided the following link. Hope this helps some of you exasperated with getting RumRunner working.
Plugable

be warned, I have tried this 3 times already, and at some point throughout, on EVERY try, my computer would just STOP recognizing my USB devices, and I would have to use a recovery image on my computer because i couldnt log in to my desktop.
YMMV, but it didnt work at all for me

I made this guide. What I had to do was edit some Windows8 settings and install the drivers manually to get them to work.

This worked beautifully for me on Windows 8.1 RTM x64, thanks much.

I tried all this and still couldn't use Fastboot. My fix was in BIOS. I disabled xHCI mode in USB under advanced tab and everything is fine.

Worked great for me! Thanks!

Hi.I am creating a thread on this problem and I am using your idea on it and I will give credit to you too.
thanks alot.

Just wanted to let you guys know I got it working by installing pdanet. It installed it's drivers and everything worked after that.

My laptop has 2 USB 3 ports and 1 USB 2 port. fastboot/adb doesn't work on the 3s. I always use the 2 port and it works perfectly fine.

Guys the problems with windows 8 and windows 8.1 are normally the usb 3.0 drivers. Intel have not posted windows 8 drivers for series 7 and series 8. You need to modify the windows 7 drivers with other inf files. I have done the job for you so you can manually install the drivers.
The intel series 7 64 bit can be installed from here:

I wasn't aware HTC released 8.1 drivers. I will give these a try. Thanks!

I just made a usb stick carrying win7 to boot off of on my girl's win8.1 laptop. Works wonderfully, the only issue i had when using this guide was i had to manually set the boot sector after finishing running the application.

LG G3 D851 Windows 8.1 Driver

CDC Serial
LGE Android Phone

I downloaded the "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN311AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.11.3" file and LG PC Suite
I've also restarted my PC several times and turned of driver signing.
I also called LG Tech Support but they weren't any help. They said their website isn't updated and I need to wait for the "official" drivers to appear there.

I got it working in Windows 7. I'm having issues with Windows 8.1.
For Windows 7, download the drivers that I mentioned above and restart your PC. (Make sure your phone is not plugged in while you are installing the driver)
After your PC is fully loaded, plug your phone and that should do it. If it doesn't work then add the path to the driver in the ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES.

Just install LG PC Suite and do the update option under help then connect via USB and if it cannot find it, it'll ask if you want to re-install the USB drivers, do so and it'll work.
I've done the above on 8.1 and had no issues.

people still use a USB cable to connect their phones in 2014?
there are so many wireless solutions that work perfectly, why bother with USB cables?

I too am having the same issue. I have tried installing just the drivers and then installing LG PC suite. I have the same exact 3 devices listed:
CDC Serial
LGE Android Phone
LGE Android Phone
I also am on windows 8.1 update 1 (64 bit) and am very desperate to get this working so I can root my device. Any help would greatly be appreciated!
