Have any of you that received your streaks today and been able to install any non-market APKs?
I keep getting the "Install Blocked" error and there is no setting to allow unblocked apps. Am I missing something or is there a workaround? I know ATT is terrible with this stuff and I cannot get Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine to work.
With USB debugging enabled and adb compatible drivers loaded, you should then be able to use the sideloader app. I've had issues doing this with the Dell PC Suite drivers, but using the drivers bundled with the PDANet Windows client does the trick. (You can download it for free.)

Hi all,
I've searched the forums (honestly), but I can't find an answer to my problem.
I have a Vodafone branded 32B phone.
I installed the AndroidSDK as supposed to, added the path, made the phone root, booted into the recovery console using fastboot and flashed my phone with different operating systems... but during all this time I hever got ADB to work.
Whatever I do, adb never finds the phone. Fastboot works and finds it, when it's in fastboot mode, but ADB never. So, I can't permanently install the recovery console nor do any of the other funky stuff.
ADB doesn't work when the phone is in fastboot mode nor normally operating. I have USB Debugging turned on. The phone works normally and I can access the SDCard just fine.
Any help?
Suggestion.
Look into purchasing a G1 to be kept as a spare and used for development. That's what I've done with my G1. GParted is within most recovery images nowadays, therefore you can do most anything there, well...important functions that is. Keep that in mind.
You might need to uninstall the driver that recognizes your phone, then manually install the updated driver.

that's what i had to do to get it to recognise my phone.
i'm pretty sure the driver came with SDK. either way i've attached the one i used.
go into device manager and update the driver it's currently using with the attached one.
Incorrect driver.
It should be the 1st driver listed in the Android SDK file.
As far as I know, you could also choose to push ADB to your system32 file folder under the C: drive in your computer. That is if you're using a Windows machine.
just a thought
Are you on windows or linux? If you're in ubuntu try sudo adb ... the default unprivilaged user doesnt automatically have access to the device.
If you're in Windows I would uninstall the Android Phone device in device manager and reboot with the phone disconnected. Then connect it and install the usb driver from the sdk when prompted. Might also pay to download the sdk again.
Install HTC Sync
Another known way to fix the issue is to download and install HTC Sync http://www.htc.com/au/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=573&news_id=169
This seems to install the correct drivers

Hey Guys,
Forgot to mention I'm on Windows Vista 64 bits.
That last suggestion did the trick. I went to the site and downloaded the HTCDriverUpdate_Vista_64bits.exe, and within seconds I had an ADB connection.
Thanks for your help!
Hello All.
I've had my UK, T-Mobile G1 for quite a while now. I have rooted it and it is running the latest CyanogenMod recovery image and ROM. I also have Apps2SD set up on my 8GB SD card, on a 512MB ext partition. This was all working fine until the problems below occurred...
I'm having some problems with several apps and ADB.
My PC runs Windows 7, 64 bit, and I can't seem to find a driver for the G1's ADB. I'm probably being incredibly stupid, but I just can't find one. I have used one before on Vista, where I had to set some boot options, but I'm not too sure / happy about doing that on my nicely functioning Windows 7. And as my friend once said; "You mess around with windows, then windows will mess around with you"...
But, anyway, I can't seem to get ADB working, if someone could either send me a link to the drivers or guide me through it, I'd be grateful...
Also, it may be due to me running CyanogenMod, but if I try to update the Facebook app, it downloads the app, and then when it tries to install, gives me the error "Installation Unsuccessful - Incompatible Update".
And with the Google Maps app, it says "Installation unsuccessful - Package file was not signed correctly". This may be due to me trying to get the hacked version of the app to get the Google Maps Navigation working in the UK, but I couldn't get that to work, so I uninstalled it and Nav Launcher, and now when I try to update from the Market it gives me that error.
I've seen a guide online with ADB commands, but as I have no access to ADB, I'm a tad screwed. I've tried runnign the commands in the Terminal Emulator in the phone, which does approximately nothing whatsoever.
So, can anyone give me any guidance on any of my Android problems?
Thanks in advance - Ethan
To the best of my knowledge no one has successfully used ADB with Windows 7/64bit

Ah. Looks like I'll be reinstalling Ubuntu then for the ADB. Thank you for such a fast response.

In that case, do you remember where you obtained the driver from? I would love a link, or a zip file or something...
I'm on Vista x64 SP2 and I can use ADB just fine. You just need to download the SDK and then get the USB driver through there. It used to come included, but now you need to use the ADV and SDK manager and download the drivers as an SDK Component through there.
After that, make sure your phone is set to USB Debugging mode and plug it in then point windows to the new drivers. If it doesn't want to install the new drivers, you might need to remove the old ones first. I had to use USB Deview (DL link at bottom of page) and removed all installed HTC drivers. After that I plugged my G1 back in, pointed it at the newly downloaded drivers and all was well.
I'm running adb/fastboot/android sdk on win7 64b ultimate. The drivers are included in the sdk download. Once you download the sdk, make sure you have java installed. (I had to install JRE and JDK to get it to work properly, not sure if this was needed) Anyhow, when you have the sdk downloaded, run the sdk setup program. Go to settings and check the box for force update (unsure of the exact terminology used there) then go to available updates and your drivers are the last option on the list.
So I'm desperately working to get my n1 installed on either of my machines but it needs the USB driver package in order to install the android 1.0 thing it usually does otherwise it will be unsuccessful (Any other ways to install the n1 would be greatly appreciated) ANYWAYS I just completely removed my SDK from my computer and when I went back in I coudn't help but notice on both of my machines (Xp sp3, Windows 7 ult) there was no USB package.
Am i forgetting something? It's been so long since I've had to do this.
When you unzip the sdk, you have to run SDK Manager in the sdk folder. Ignore the "chose packages to install" window, and take a look at the SDK AVD Manager window. Select Available Packages, then expand the Third Party Add-ons, then expand Google Inc. USB Drivers is the next to last option...

i also recommend trying out the PDANet drivers. Just install the PDANet application on your PC and it should make sure you have the proper drivers set up. Alternatively, use the "USBdeview" utility to delete all USB drivers related to Android/HTC/adb and then install the PDANet drivers.
Good luck.
I am trying to root my Droid 2 2.3.3 on Verizon. I have Windows XP SP3. I have used the 1 click root and darkonion's version from last year.
When connecting my phone in PC Mode I get a New Hardware Wizard which will not find a driver after going through the motions.
I try installing the Motorola Mobility Drivers from the links provided here. (I have found two different links) to no avail.
When using DoRootWin_2.1.4 and doroot.bat it perpetually checks for devices.
When I adb devices from the command prompt I don't get anything.
I have the following checked;
PC Mode
USB Debugging
Unknown sources
I have tried to hard reset my phone. And have gone directly to rooting.
I have deleted the USB Drivers from the list an reinstalled them (used USBDeview)
I have downloaded the Android SDK and all associated files (JDK, Java, ecllipse, busybox, su, rage, & superuser)
I have added the path to my environment and rebooted.
Any help is appreciated. I am stuck. I don't know what I am missing.
I flashed, factory bootloader, radio, and 4.3.zip, but Windows 8 will not allow me to install the Google usb_driver update that I installed from the SDK manager. I choose to select the drive myself for "unknown device" and navigate to C:\Development\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130514\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver, but I get a message saying "Windows could not find driver software for your device." I've restarted my computer, uninstalled the driver and reinstalled. I'm not sure if it matters, but I was running 4.2.2 rooted and deodexed with CWM recovery before. I also skipped the w- switch when I installed the .zip, so as not to lose any data. I wouldn't mind backing up my phone and reflashing with the w- switch, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that, since my computer won't even recognize my phone as a storage device anymore. I am using the cable that came with the phone too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Although I should have tried that before I posted, that didn't work either. For what it's worth, after I ran the flash, the generic android app icon was where the phone app should have been; I had to move the phone app icon from the apps menu. Also, I had to force close In Tune radio and the phone app isn't autocompleting.
