I'm trying to restore my HTC to stock and flash the stock recovery, but my device isn't found via fastboot anymore. It worked fine for a long time until suddenly stopping (might be a Windows 10 thing). I checked my PC's device manager, and it is showing an error next to the HTC 10 under ADB Interface. I tried to use "search the internet for drivers" which comes back with nothing. I also tried installing HTC's Sync Manager, but it won't install the USB/fastboot drivers for the 10. Fastboot works fine for my S7 Edge, and Nexus 6P, so it must be an issue with the lack of drivers (showing none in the device manager) for my HTC 10. If someone has them, or a link to them that would be great!
Update: someone PM'D me to drivers which fixed the issue. Credit is given in post #4 thank you to everyone that helped. I will uplaod the drivers if anyone wants them

HTC Manager installs an older version of ADB in its app directory structure. Rename the adb.exe there to adb.old and see if that works for you.

@alobear gave me a link to the drivers which fixed it. I tried uninstalling HTC sync manager and reinstalling the Android SDK which didn't work. The drivers I was given however do work!
I can upload then to my Google Drive or AFH if anyone wants them
Haha good to know they worked man. ?

I was able to flash a stock recover (not the T-Mobile one), change my CID and relock the BL with S-ON in preparation for sending it back while I wait on a replacement.

Some things will never change lol. I've used HTC devices since the Hero came out... And those are just the Android ones. Ironically the WM devices never really gave me much trouble.

I've always had drivers issues with non Nexus phones for some reason. HTC, Moto, Samsung, LG etc all gave me issues at some point. Drivers are key to have around jsut in case. Im running the W10 insider builds which are a nightmare to opt out of (I can't even with a clean install and new account, Microsoft might replace my Surface becusse they can't figured out the issue either). Anyway I'm glad everything worked out for you via the drives.

It ran fine for a long time before I started to have issues, then things went south fast. HTC sync reminds me of Kies from Samsung in a lot of ways (none of them are good).

Hey all. This is for those of you having issues with ADB and Windows.
Source link
This is assuming you already have the SDK, it's installed, you're just having issues with the actual ADB driver.
Basically you download PDANet - it will take care of of the ADB drivers for you. Note - you WILL have to reboot the computer before the drivers actually work. Thanks to robinsondom for the linky, and thanks to theunlockr.com for that fantastic guide! It appears to cover basically any issues you may run into with ADB and Windows!
Hi arrrghhh,
I had a similar problem getting the drivers to work on my PC. I bookmarked a site that was very helpful, as I recall, in resolving this. Unfortunately, I still might have too few posts to upload a link. Let's see...
ok, that didn't work... maybe my next post...?
Hmm, you would think that 3+ years of responsible "lurking" (plus a few posts) might take me out of the "new user" category and allow me to post links -- but it seems I still need 5 posts no matter what. Maybe after this post (my 5th)...?
Trying one last time to post the link I mentioned...
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
I hope you find it helpful.

lol I just thought a bunch of people responded
Unfortunately lurking for 3 or 30 years doesn't really make a difference. All goes by post count, you need 5 to be able to post a link. You're now at 6, congrats
I'll try that out now... I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks!
Update - that did it! I'm definitely saving this article. It seems USBDeview should only be used if your PC isn't prompting you.
I was pretty skeptical, but for whatever reason the drivers that PDANet offered to the system it took, when the ones that worked previously (same PC, same phone....) didn't work. Go figure.
Thanks again dude!
I updated my first post with credit & the solution. Awesome!

Download and install Droid Explorer standalone version.
Hi,
I've installed SDK and then the PDANet Software and it solved my driver problems. And now with the Droid Explorer I should be able to access my device and the SD card, but the Explorer does not find my HTC Touch Pro. What shall I do now??
Sry, I'm a Newbie in this Android stuff and I am very confused ^^

Hrm. Do you see the two USB-related icons in the notification bar in Android? It indicates two things, USB debugging (aka ADB) and USB mass storage (not working yet... probably not till we're full NAND.) So make sure it's enabled there... One other possibility is you're using a very old kernel that doesn't include USB support...?
ADB is a very advanced tool/topic... it's mainly for debugging. Not really noob-friendly - we're not at that stage yet.
Yes, I can see the two icons. I don't know what you mean with kernel?!
I just want to put some music on my device, without pulling out the card or using Windows Mobile Am I on the wrong way?

Uhm... probably easier to just pull the card. ADB is really meant to be used for debugging issues.
It's just the only way we can currently access the device in lieu of USB mass storage support.
Not sure what confused you about my kernel statement. Perhaps you need to update your kernel, that's all I'm saying... if you're running an older kernel, it might not have the correct support.
However, if you saw the icons in the notification bar, I would think USB support is working.
Having a bit of an issue with the bootloader unlock instructions from here:
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
Basically the problem is that step 13 just isn't happening. First time I tried it DID pop up but for some reason the bit asking for drivers closed down. Now I can't get to the point where I choose the drivers so I can't go any further.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!
I don't Understand What do you mean Go to -->Right Click Computer-->Propeties-->Device Manager-->Then Go to "S1 Boot Device"-->Then Right Click on it and Click Driver Something-->Select the Drivers The Drivers for Fastboot never Get Found By windows You'll manually do them on every PC for the first Time!

Thanks! I can't believe Sony didn't put that in their guide. Thought it would be something simple but my last phone I did this on was a Nexus One so i didn't have to do that. Once again thanks! Problem solved.
Then again perhaps there is still a problem...
Did this, went to the right file, the drivers are DEFINITELY here, yet Windows can't find them. WTF Windows?
Oh well, sure its not a huge issue. Any ideas anyone?
Use the latest version of PDAnet. It will solve your driver problems, you won't have to do anything else.

You need some different AMD driver for fastboot to work.
I found the same problem with AMD machine and used a different driver posted by someone on this forum.
Search for it and you will be ok to boot into fastboot once it is properly installed.

I got a similar problem, except that, Device manager does not list S1 Boot device..
But the phone is connected in fastboot mode.. blue led and everything..
the only things listed are:
* Base System Device
* Bluetooth Peripheral Device
* Bluetooth Peripheral Device
* Bluetooth Peripheral Device
* Bluetooth Peripheral Device
* Bluetooth Peripheral Device
But I can eject the device by clicking on the icon in the bottom right.. and that reads "Eject S1Boot Fastboot" ..
but why isnt it listed in device manager?

Hey guys!
I'm new here, but i've read alot on xda since the past few years. I have a Problem with my Elephone P8000 that's driving me nuts.
I wanted to install the Nexus ROM on it, but it already fails at the intallation of the drivers. I'm working with Computers everyday, but I really can't get a solution on this.
My computer (Win7 Pro 64bit) doesn't recognize the phone. I just hear a "connected" sound and then a "disconnected" Sound. The only drivers my PC installs are the Android MTP Drivers, but as I understood, I need the MT67xx Drivers which I can get from the SP_Drivers_V2.0 but it won't work. Including these problems, my computer is now in Build 7601, which I can fix, but maybe that helps.
I'd really like to use this ROM, because of the few bugs in the stock ROM of the P8000.
I hope you can help me.
Best,
TheOnlyCoon

Great all credit to skeleton1911 though.
So here's the thing, my Nexus 5X, when loaded into bootloader and connecting to my computer running Windows 10, doesn't work with the official drivers. (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html)
It connects fine, and reports itself with the hardware id "USB\VID_18D1&PID_D00D", which is not present in the android_winusb.inf or any drivers included in windows. In fact, I couldnn't find *any* official drivers, not even from LG, nor "universal" drivers. Tools like "SKIPSOFT ANDROID TOOLKIT" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...olkit-skipsoft-android-toolkit-nexus-t3230444) didn't help, either.
I did some research on google and xda, too, and couldn't find anything conclusive. Hundreds of people should have this problem, if the Nexus 5X isn't supported by the official adb/fastboot drivers. I'm honestly puzzled, as it seems that most N5X owners don'tr have this issue. What's "wrong" here?
I found the same.
I could never find one official driver from google or lg that would work with adb inside android, adb inside twrp, adb sideload inside stock recovery, and fastboot.
I stopped worrying about why it works for other people and just fixed the problem myself.
You can try the drivers in the attached post if you like. It should work fine on 32/64 bit windows.

I had even more problems on the Nexus 7 2013. Not only was adb not working, but neither were the MTP IDs being recognized so I had to "fix" them for myself also. Judging by the number of people that downloaded those drivers, other people had the same problems.
I don't know what the deal is with drivers and Nexus devices that I've used. I would have thought Nexus being a developer oriented device and with them being Google branded, drivers should be the last of my issues.
Perhaps everyone who uses Nexus and needs adb to work is savvy enough to search or fix themselves and Google doesn't get any complaints.
Also some people have installed "universal" drivers in the past, which may account for why they don't encounter issues with recognition as long as this isn't their first Nexus device.

That's probably part of it. My guess is most developers use Linux or OSX (so they can develop iOS apps too) and simply don't have the driver issues that plague Windows.

Hey guys,
I've downloaded RUU .exe from htc official website (tried also from someone's linke from here). As from my previous expierience with HTC Wildfire (the oldest one) i've just runed it as administrator and hoped everythink will work fine. Well nope. It loads, asks me to confirm the license agreement and then nothing happens. Any suggestions? Tried it on Windows XP VDI -same issue.
Right now I am running Windows 10 64-bit machine, and have fastboot and adb installed. HTC Sync Manager also installed (tried it both ways -with HTC Sync running in the background and without it but same result).
And tried it both ways with my M8 and without it plugged. In device manager i can see it as HTCDevice (sth like that).
Any thoughts?

You're quite welcome. I only knew from reading this issue previously (and its cropped up a few times in the past), and knew what the search for. Otherwise, it probably would have been pretty obscure to find.
