ADB Drivers for EVO?

I have been doing Android development for a while on my work laptop that runs Windows Server 2003 64bit. Previously I've used a HTC Magic (AT&T) and a Moto Droid (Verizon) for development. Now I also have a EVO that I am trying to use. The problem is that I cannot get ADB to work with it.
System: Windows Server 2003 64 bit (work laptop, no I cannot put Windows <whatever else> on here).
Phone: EVO
Since I have been doing development for some time I already have the SDK, along with the USB drivers.
Here are things I have tried:
1. Plug in EVO. It wants to install ADB drivers. I choose the USB drivers location. Fails.
2. Delete USB Drivers. Redownload them from the SDK. Plug in, choose drivers, fail.
3. Plug in, allow drivers to fail, I have the ! in device manager for ADB. Unistall the ADB driver. Scan for hardware changes. Install ADB drivers. Fail.
4. Uninstall the Motorola USB Driver package. Try all above steps, fail.
5. Try to install HTC Sycn, Server 2003 not supported, fail.
What else can I try to get ADB working? Seems funny that it would work perfectly with a HTC Magic and a Droid but not this EVO.

Eureka! I found an obscure post on some crappy forum to a link for what someone called HTC Evo 64 bit drivers, so I thought what the hay, lets try them.
http://depositfiles.com/en/files/yd61xorii
The folder of drivers in there was really called Vista x86 but, still worth a shot.
It worked perfectly. The phone doesnt say ADB in device manager now but "My HTC". ADB is working fine.
Hopefully someone in the same boat as me will happen across this and it will save them time.

Thank you! Saved me a BUNCH of time! You're the man!

The file appears to be unavailable on that site now, could someone please re-host this ASAP? I can't get anything else to work and I'd really appreciate it if this turned out to be my fix. Thanks.

just grab HTC Sync from the HTC www site. It will install the drivers you need.

I can't connect on VMWare Fusion and Windows 7. How did you fix your problem? Did you find drivers? Thanks.

wow. never had a problem on windows 7 or ubuntu getting the evo to be recognized. but, head to work, plug it in, and no go. install the sdk and update it, no go. i was baffled, because i've never had a problem before. but, this file did the trick! thanks!

Unfortunately for those of us who are behind a proxy and can't get at the SDK file, going through the stupid SDK to get the driver is very annoying.

Didn't work for me. I'm running Deck's 4.0.3 ROM and can't get my device recognized on my computer. I tried to install the driver pack above through device manager and got an "unable to install" message. Any advice?

adb issues

Hi, i don't know if i am starting this thread in the right section, but here goes. I'm sure you very helpful people will assist me if not.
I have an HTC desire branded to Orange UK but i am wanting to flash/debrand it. The problem i am having is this:
Im following the instructions for flashing/debranding the desire on self titled thread on android forums.
In the first step "how to set up adb" I have done everything that it tells me to do on the page on the unlockr.com
But when i open the CMD and type in all the correct commands it says list of devices attached below, but it is just blank, i don't know what it is that im doing wrong, but i must be somewhere? I need this number to make the gold card don't I? Its obviously a problem with the drivers, am i correct in thinking that? so i uninstalled the drivers and HTC sync, and reinstalled them from the HTC site, but still no joy. I then opened the SDK and installed USB driver package, still no luck.
If anyone can think of what might be the problem, could you please help. I am a total n00b when it comes to android, but this process seems far from hard to follow, maybe this is where i am going wrong?
Thanks in advance

you downloaded the adb tools to your desktop correct? something like android-sdk/android-sdk/tools/ ?
so cd (change directory) there using command prompt
when you are on the tools:/ directory type in 'adb shell'
you should now be able to write commands in a prompt starting with #
i have taken a screenshot of this done on a mac (it will be slightly different for Windows)

Sorry mate, just seen this reply.
I cant post links on here, but i followed the instructions on how to set up adb from theunlockr.com They said that SDK should be downloaded and unpacke to the C: drive which i did, if you can have a look at that site you will see what i have done. Im thinking that there is some sort of problem with the drivers somewhere, i checked on my device manager and checked the properties of "My HTC" and it sates "windows cannot initialize the device driver for this software"

are you using windows 7/xp/vista?
seems to me like your drivers did not install correctly.
plug your phone to your computer
go to control panel -> device manager -> find your phone
right click it and go to properties
go to driver and uninstall it
unplug your phone from the computer
restart your computer
plug in your phone again
wait for the driver to re-install.
if that doesnt work try installing htc sync

I'm on Vista 32 bit, This is what i have come to the conclusion, that its the drivers, i have uninstalled all drivers, HTC sync then reinstalled them plus reinstalled HTC sync, all with the same result, its even come to the point where i am sending an SD card to another person so he can make the gold card for me, just so i can flash the device. I will try what you suggested.

[Q] Unrecognized Device only in hboot/fastboot

Let me say beforehand that I am a lifetime lurker. I would not be posting here if I hadn't already spent at least two days scouring the web for an answer.
My HTC Desire HD cannot connect to HTC Sync, but it can connect as a storage device, and can be seen by adb. Whenever it connects while in hboot/fastboot, it will flicker "USB" a few times before Windows tell me it's not recognized (Device failed enumeration code 43). This includes using the RUU wizard from HTC. That will just make it stick on "RUU" in the bootloader.
I have tried every driver download suggested on this site. I have switched USB cables three times (all htc cables). I have used two seperate computers (Windows 8 and Windows 8.1).
I'll admit I'm a nooby specifically to Androids. All I want to do is flash new ROMs/root my device. As far as I know this is step one, and I can't go any further until I've unlocked my bootloader.
EDIT: SOLVED
HTC Desire HD drivers really hates Windows 8 and 8.1. Installed Windows 7 32-bit and it worked just fine.

That error can be a pain in the ass. I have it as well. I believe disabling griver signature enforcement in win8 (it's your OS, isn't it?) should allow installing adb drivers, but I was too lazy to check it. As a workaround I instead flash the boot.img in bootloader by putting it to PD98IMG.zip
I can upload you a template, leave the txt in it and replace the boot.img with your desired one, choose store (none) compression level, then put the zip directly (don't use folders) in sd card
EDIT: I didn't fully read your post before. If you don't have S-OFF most probably you can't get away without adb drivers..

Turned off device signing. No effect.

Have you tried now manually installing drivers in device manager while the phone is in unrecognized state? Does it still say the drivers are incompatible?
If your OS is 64bit, you need these http://d-h.st/23V

I have those drivers. I installed them manually. I tried the updating the drivers through device manager and pointing them directly to the drivers folder I need, and Windows is insistent that not having ANY drivers installed is the best driver to have installed for my device.
I am getting a pop up saying that the device is failing to to start. It's not like other usb devices I might have plugged in and they just sit there in at least their correct category in device manager.
The part that ticks me off most, is that this exact problem on this exact model has been solved on three different forums, and each time the OP just said "nvm I fixed it" and never even bothered to explain how for the rest of us.
It's really hard not to curse right now.

in device manager update dialog goto
browse my computer --> let me pick --> have disk --> choose the .inf from the drivers path.

Ya, I had tried that too. None of them will work. It says the file I chose doesn't have compatible software for my device.
Once again, this only happens in the hboot/fastboot/RUU. Once the phone has loaded the OS it works totally completely fine, save for HTC Sync not seeing the phone and vice versa. I don't understand why some drivers would only work sometimes unless something is wrong with my bootloader, and if so, how do i fix it?

have you tried un-installing HTC SYNC?

Nothing is wrong with your phone, same thing happens to me, I just thought disabling driver signing should fix it, like I said I was too lazy to check it since I found workaround for my needs.

It is currently uninstalled.
@smoger:
I would try your workaround, but I' m not sure where to obtain the boot image I need. Also, I thought you could only change the S-Off if your bootloader was unlocked anyways?

Power down DHD and connect it to PC. I realized, my win7 was installing drivers, while phone was off.

It appears to be the same device/drivers when powered off or when in the Android environment. While in the bootloader, it shows as an unknown device.
I also noticed that only when I am trying to update via RUU, it says instead "Device Descriptor Request Failed"

The boot.img is in the ROM-zip-file packed. But I think, if its a RUU it is called PD98...img

Try this, I know its from Samsung, but this installs fastboot drivers and drivers used for ADB access

For the set of Google Drivers, go here too http://d-h.st/23V

My drivers list does not show the Google or HTC drivers like yours does after installing all the things in your links. In fact, that's the fourth time I've downloaded those Google/HTC Win7 64x drivers from people around the web. They are not in my drivers list after installing them via the INF files. I must be doing something wrong.

To be exact I have:
Tried HTC Sync
Tried HTC Drivers Installer
Tried to Automatically search for drivers
Tried to install drivers by using the inf Install option
Tried to manually select drivers by pointing to the folder the Win7 64x drivers were placed
Tried to manually install by picking out the exact inf files
Tried to install from device drivers list, were they were not listed
Tried these steps with driver signing turned off
Tried all of these steps with another PC
I still think the issue is related to the fact that it only has problems in the bootloader menu

Ok, like u know I had this issue. Now I randomly managed to fix it when I needed adb drivers for my new toy (Sanei tablet for 40$ lol)
The mistake I was making is that I was trying to install the drivers while device was in fastboot, but apparently you can get away with casual "My HTC" drivers which can be installed when DHD is booted into Android. It looks likethe phone is not being detected from bootloader (it doesn't like any of the drivers I had tried), but I can fully use ADB while it's in recovery or starting/trying to boot OS, so it should be enough for rooting/unlocking bootloader.
I remember with HTC Wildfire I had drivers package with seperate drivers for Android and fastboot, so I had to install different driver after rebooting to fastboot, but with these new drivers and win8 it doesn't work out this way.

Solved. Used Windows 7 32-bit. Windows 8.1 was the culprit.

[Q] Help with fastboot driver?

Greetings XDA,
I'm trying to hurry and unlock my One before Verizon locks 'er down tight, but i'm having trouble getting the Fastboot driver installed.
I've installed the java run time environment, sdk, and even the HTC my sync settings (with drivers) and am seeing "My HTC" under Android ADB devices while booted normally, but as soon as I jump to fastboot, the "My HTC" receives an exclamation point and the device driver says not installed.
I'm running Windows 8 x64 and tried these instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232799
Any help? Any one?

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.

Sadly, i don't have such a machine lying around. The wife's comp has the sdk installed as well (she's a nexus user). Although, on her windows 7 machine, in fastboot i do see MyHTC driver as ok, but when i run the "fastboot oem get_token_modifier" command, i get "(bootloader) [ERR] Command error!!! OKAY finished"
so something still quite wrong!

I don't think the Fastboot drivers work on Windows 8.
Spent all day trying, and never got recognized in ADB. Used co-worker's computer with Windows 7, worked like a charm.

ADB and Fastboot both work fine on Windows 8. I had to install the newest 4.3.0.001 drivers to get ADB to recognize my One on my Windows 7 partition, despite having had the most recent behind that. My Windows 8 partition worked like a charm because I had more recently installed the updated drivers on it. It's also possible you were connecting your phone to a USB 3.0 port. ADB/Fastboot is "wonky" over USB 3.0, and if you don't have the correct USB 3.0 drivers, you have no chance at all. Also, you need USB Debugging turned on, which can be done in this version of Android by going to Settings -> About -> Software Information -> More, then tapping on the build number 7 times, unlocking developer options, then going to Settings -> Developer options, and checking USB Debugging.
And all this may be moot for now, as it appears anyone who wasn't previously unlocked won't be able to for a while.

[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!

Unfortunately, as the computer doesn't even react at all when I plug in the device, I can't manipulate drivers at all. That means no uninstalling or installing :/

ah okay, install sync manager:

once the windows sees the phone. feel free to remove the sync portion of the install and keep the driver installer on the pc.
this should fix it and wont mess with ADB or fastboot.

Hehe, thanks. I guess I'm just a little paranoid about having junky, manufacturer specific software on my pc. Will see if this works.
