[Q] Win7 drivers not recognizing phone - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

It's my first try ever to install a new ROM. I was trying to install CM on my Note 2 (ATT) following the Install_CM_for_t0lte tutorial on cyanogenmod.
Everything was going smoothly until I try to push the CM build with ADB and find that ADB doesn't recognize any devices. I head over the Samsung to get the SGH-I317 USB drivers but the first driver (1.5.45.0) doesn't fix the problem. There's a second driver there (1.5.14.0) and I try it with no luck as well.
I've been searching for an hour and I still don't know what to do. Pretty much everyone says get drivers from Samsung, but they aren't working for me.
The Win7 Device Manager has an entry in "Other devices > SAMSUNG-SGH-I317" that says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)".
Things I've tried:
- The drivers from Heimdall's zadig work for Heimdall, but apparently not ADB ("adb devices" is empty).
- I've tried both front and back USB ports with multiple cables.
- I've tried stopping and restarting the adb server
Without the drivers, ADB doesn't see my phone and I can't push a new build to my freshly wiped phone.
Please help!

[HELP] GNex toolkit v5.6 - ADB problem

[FIXED]
For some reason Toolkit didnt work for me and i used this method to unlock bootloaders and root it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362957
Also installed CWM recovery

I installed my drivers and 1st time when I connected my phone in adb toolkit recognised it and showed his id. Next time when I connected it in adb it didnt recognise it in toolkit but windows recognise my phone and i can access it.
I've rebooted my pc every time and reinstalled couple of drivers:
-Naked samsung drivers
-Pda drivers
-Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Moblie_Phones_v1_4_6_0
Nothing worked.
1st time I used Samsung_USB_Driver_for_Moblie_Phones_v1_4_6_0 and i tried again and nothing.
I am on Windows 7 64bit version.
If anyone knows how to solve this please share the idea.

I was facing lot of driver issues when connecting my GNex for the first time to the laptop on WinXP. Installing the drivers through the GNex Toolkit also did not work for me.
Finally what worked for me was, installing the latest version of Android SDK with the additional package of Google USB drivers, and then manually selecting the drivers after connecting my phone instead of asking Windows to look for drivers automatically.
I had trouble when first connecting my GNex too. However, these drivers worked for me (plus work with many many other android devices):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875
If you have several android devices you'll find that you don't have to install multiple drivers for adb, fastboot, etc. for each of the devices.
Taken from post#3 of the ToolKit thread:
Note 1: If the driver doesnt install automatically then double click on the Android 1.0 item, then click on the driver tab and select 'update driver'. Select 'browse my computer' and then 'Let me pick from a list'. If no items appear in the list then untick 'Show compatible hardware' and find the Android adb driver or Samsung adb driver.
Try that as they may be on your pc and just not installing.
Mark.
Got them working now but i have problem when rooting, using GNex toolkit 5.6
It boots into android, i set usb debugging but when the phone is suppose to boot back to fastboot it gives error device not connected.

[Q] GNex ADB device not detected by my PC [fixed]

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
cheerts
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:
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
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...

[ANSWERED] Unable to use ADB to connect CM10.1/driver issue

Hello,
I've been able to use ADB to install and test apps that I'm writing under the stock ROM for my Epic, as well as under CM9 (and I think an early CM10, not sure about that though). After installing the 20130101 build of CM10.1 (keeping the included kernel), I am having issues trying to deploy and debug apps from my any of my computer to the phone (all of which previously worked). I've verified that Android Debugging is still enabled on my phone.
In the device manager on my computer, "SAMSUNG Android USB Modem" and "Unknown Device" are both showing the "problem" icon. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling various versions of the Samsung USB drivers, I've tried a few versions of Kies, and even a few third-party tweaked USB drivers. It doesn't seem like anything wants to recognize my phone now that is running CM10.1 (or CM10.1 in addition to something peculiar with my installation).
Additionally, if I have USB debugging enabled on my phone, even if I enable USB mounting, the computer won't recognize the mount until I disable debugging mode on the phone. Once I do that, then the volume will appear on my computer. Previously, when ADB debugging in general worked, I wouldn't have to disable debugging to get the USB mass storage mounting to work.
These problems happened at once on all three of my computers that I've been using for Android development, so I'm fairly convinced these issues are directly related to the ROM I'm running. I've attempted to search the forum and Google for others that may have had this issue and what the resolution/work-around might be, but so far I've not found anything. Surely other people are using CM10.1 and developing apps, which makes be believe it could be something unusual with my installations, but I've tried full wipe without a data restore and it didn't seem to have any impact. I've also tried searching to see if there were special drivers needed for CM10.1, and didn't find anything with that either. I know reverting back to an earlier ROM is an option to get ADB working, but I'm really hoping to get ADB working with CM10.1.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can check/do to get USB debugging working on CM10.1 (epicmtd)?
Thank you very much for your time
--James
Re: [Q] Unable to use ADB to connect CM10.1/driver issue
I had the same problem, tried absolutely everything I could to get it to work and couldn't... had to roll back to a tw rom to get it to work (not a fan of the HUGE battery drain on cm9)
Edit- I know this doesn't help you, just wanted to point out you're not the only one with this problem....
Re: [Q] Unable to use ADB to connect CM10.1/driver issue
Locate the drivers for your phone on your computer and uninstall them. Then plug your phone in and let the computer reinstall the drivers. I had the same problem (although I wasn't making apps) and my suggestion above worked for me, so hopefully it'll work for you.

I've tried this with my previous uninstall/reinstall driver attempts, but tried it again anyway.
Unfortunately, it didn't' seem to have a positive impact. It looks like it reinstalled the mass USB storage driver, but it did not reinstall any other drivers (like the modem driver) so I'm still not able to do anything with ADB.
Re: [Q] Unable to use ADB to connect CM10.1/driver issue
Have you tried manually installing the drivers?
Here is the .exe that I used to install the drivers for my phone.

Hello again. Yes. I've tried installing various versions of USB drivers floating around the net as well as Kies (after uninstalling and deleting current drivers to try to avoid conflicts). Other versions of Epic ROMs (Stock, CM9, etc.) worked with ADB using my installed drivers until I installed CM10.1 (maybe starting with CM10) on my Epic.
As an aside, using ADB requires some additional (special) drivers beyond the drivers required for mass storage support.
I'm hoping one of the CM10.1 developers will chime in with what they did and/or installed to have ADB working with CM10.1 on Windows 7.
Thanks!
--James
I'm going to update to the most recent build of CM10.1 and see if ADB works for me. If it doesn't work, i'll try reinstalling drivers.

I don't know what I did differently in my search (I've been trying to find solutions for awhile now). I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1817954
I upgraded my Kies to 2.0, which includes the latest drivers from here:
http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/
I still had "Unknown Device" listed in my device manager. Based on that forum thread, I right-clicked on the "Unknown Device", selected "Update Driver", "Let me choose from software installed on computer" and then picked "ADB Interface". A list of a few Samsung ADB entries in it appeared, and I picked one (I had two with the same name, so not sure what the differences are between them) and after a few seconds I had no more alerts in the device manager and when I run "adb devices" I now see a device in the list. I fired up Eclipse to give it a real-world test and it worked: I'm now able to deploy and debug apps on my connected device.
Woot!
I'll be taking these actions on my other computers tonight.
Thank you very much for your assistance.

Activating through developer options doesnt help? just go to about phone --> tap build number 7 times
I just went to device manager, uninstalled the failed USB device, and then plugged the phone back to the computer via USB.
Boom, just like that, all was well.
i tried everything and could not connect to my htc rezound (w/ CM10.1) thru adb. then i tried the following:
1. download the android adk from google (i can't post links)
2. connect phone thru usb
3. on your computer's adk download folder, navigate to sdk\platform-tools\
4. press shift + right click on the window, open command window here
5. type "adb devices" in the command window w/o the quotes
6. there should be a window pop up on ur phone asking for USB debugging permission. say OK.
7. type "adb devices" again and you should see ur phone connected thru adb.

[Q] No more Composite ADB driver after installing CM10.1

i have managed to sucessfully install a 2nd bootloader, TWRP Recovery, and CM10.1 onto my new KFHD with no apparent problems, following Hashcode's guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2128175.
I had already set up my system to support developing and debugging the KFHD, including the Amazon-specific Kindle Fire USB drivers; when plugged in, the device showed up in Device Manager as a "Kindle" with a "Composite ADB Interface", and `adb devices` detected the device.
After flashing the CM10.1 ROM I can no longer see my device as anything except an MPT USB Device, and `adb devices` says there are no devices attached.
I have tried both the Google USB drivers and the Kindle USB drivers and Windows claims that neither of them is correct for my hardware. When I check Device Manager, it says the attached device is VID_18D1, PID_6860, REV_0100, which doesn't match any of the device descriptors in either of the driver inf files.
Which driver am I supposed to be using now and how can I get it to install properly?
EDIT: I had forgotten to re-enable ADB Debugging on the tablet after flashing; now it is actually called an "Amazon Kindle Fire HD" and has a different device descriptor:
VID_18D1&PID_6861&REV_0261&MI_01
but still no love from ADB.
Thanks.
I'm having the same problem. No connection to ADB, and MTP only exists as a single file when activating the camera toggle. Frustrating to say the least, but not a deal-breaker.
Oh and a friend has the same problem. I know its not helpful, but atleast you're not the only one
That's really odd as adb works fine for me on Haschode's 10.1 Perhaps try reinstalling the drivers, The adb drivers are - click here
You may need to uninstall the old drivers before these work. Also, goes without saying that you need to enable USB debugging on the tablet!

I installed Hashcode CM10.1 for the first time tonight on an KFHD 8.9.
I have the same problem on both Windows and LINUX: loading CM10.1 on an HFHD8.9 tablet. (No ADB)
I use both every single day on both windows and LINUX so have lots and lots of experience.
In windows after installing 2nd boot /twrp and Hashcode zips (8.1.4.zip, or 8.4.1.zip) I have to use some old windows drivers for ADB and fastboot does not work at all. In LINUX, ABD and fastboot work for both Stock Kindle OS and all of Hashcodes Mod'd KindleOS.zips
If I load Hashcode's CM10.1, I have not ADB on Windows or LINUX ADB Devices shows 123456789ABCDE offline
Recovery shows devices = 123456789ABCDE Recovery
I can push files in Recovery but, not if the tablet boots into OS.
If I revert back to any one of the Hashcode KindleOS.zip images all is well at least in LINUX.
This issue is definately related to something driver wise in the CM10.1 OS.
Regards
I saw this same issue
I had this same issue after installing twrp and CM 10.1 as well. I was fortunate to have a second laptop that had not been used for this stuff before, and once i installed the adb drivers on that machine, had no issue connecting to the tablet from that machine. I still could not connect to it from the original machine. My guess would be to uninstall the ADB drivers from the machine you are using to connect, and reinstall. if that doesn't work, hopefully you have a spare machine, otherwise you might need to look at re-imaging you computer. I happen to keep a stock image file of my laptop in case of hard drive failure or other emergency, so it was about 20 minutes, and i was back up and running.

[Q] Craziest thing: can't get USB drivers to install in recovery or booted OS mode

I've been eager to try Scott Crosler's new CM11 but didn't have time until tonight. To ensure cleanliness, at the bootloader I erased cache, system and userdata. I've flashed ROMs dozens of times, and as usual, there were no problems with fastboot recognizing the device.
I then entered CWM, and it was the darndest thing: three fast USB connection beeps and this error:
"Windows could not install driver software for your device."
But I've had the generic USB drivers installed for two years! At first I thought it was interference from the Samsung drivers when reflashing my wife's tablet, but I tried our two laptops, same result. No matter that I right-clicked "Nexus 7" in Device Manager and pointed it to freshly downloaded drivers, even that I tried installing drivers using the SDK Manager,
"Windows could not install driver software for your device."
I've read that turning off USB debugging helps, but um, with an erased /system, I had nothing to boot into!
Normally I prefer flashing via ADB sideload. To get up and running again, I flashed TWRP and used its feature of mounting USB-OTG and flashing from an external drive. Once I got into CM11, I turned on and off USB debugging, but I still can't install the USB drivers, and ADB can't recognize any devices. At least there's flashing via external flash drives.
Has anyone had the like?
didn't see win 8.1 mentioned but thought this may help? http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/general/windows-8-1-users-careful-t2856908. I have had problems with drivers in past. adb composite are the ones that work for me. I simply removed drivers under android devices in device manager then plugged in device. GL.
Windows 7 here, but thanks for the suggestion anyway.
This morning I can connect it as a media device, and it's in Device Manager just fine as "Nexus 7." But turning that off, it becomes "flo" in Device Manager and can't find the updated drivers. And either way, I still can't get it recognized while in recovery mode. Ah well, as I said, at least TWRP has the option to mount USB OTB and flash files from an external drive.
Let me add that I already tried another cable (for our Samsung tablet), and tonight I see that I can connect it in MTP mode. In MTP mode, it shows up just fine in Device Manager (under Portable Devices), but turning off MTP throws it under Other Devices with the dreaded ! (and I just can't get it to install the driver no matter where I point it to). And no matter what combination I try, I still can't get ADB to recognize it at all.
Although this is for Windows 8.1 it may apply to your situation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/general/windows-8-1-users-careful-t2856908
As I e-mailed you, sfetaz's suggestion of USBDeview is part of the solution! I still can't get it recognized in booted Android as anything but a media device, but now it's fine during recovery. Darndest thing I ever saw in 19 years of dealing with Windows drivers.
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
Then in an old bookmark, I tried Koush's universal ADB drivers.
http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup.msi
Even if USBDeview hadn't helped, it was still good to clear out all the old devices I no longer use. Definitely a handy utility to keep around and recommend.
