hello all,
i have updated my streak to the 2.1 build but i cant for the life of me get adb to work? any ideas what problem may be? i think adbd is running on streak and usb debug says its active but my windows pc nor my linux one can detect the device in adb ?
Install Dell Suite software, navigate to C:\Program Files\Dell\PC Suite\Mobile Phone Monitor, locate ADEProxy.exe rename to adb.exe and replace with wherever you are running adb from. Also make sure adb.exe is not running in task manager before doing this.

Hello, I install the android SDK correctly and install all correct drivers, all correct files from the google repository, and reading on unlockr, you need to type CMD and enter a few commands, the final one being ADB devices, which is meant to bring up your device serial/id but doesnt show nothing for me, i deleted all drivers with a program, and it re-installs them, I put the phone into debug mode too, but whatever i try, i cant root my magic (32B), please help!!!!
i have followed every single guide but cant blooming root my phone!!!
HELP!!!!!!!!
Install the HTC Sync software first. If this connects correctly and recognizes your phone, then the ADB will find it too. I use it as a test, whether the drivers are installed correctly or not.
To start the ADB, you have to navigate to the folder where the SDK was extracted using the CMD Prompt, and then into /tools. There you type ADB and the command you want to execute.
done that mate, going to /tools and then adb devices and its meant to say a device serial, but on mine it shows nothing
As far as I know, you have to have a recovery installed to access adb.
Write "fastboot devices" while in /tools to see if the drivers are OK. When you install a recovery, adb should be accessible.
I've had the SDK on my computer for months but never really got into ADB. When I go into tools and click on ADB it opens up and closes within a second. I'm trying to root my MT4G but the terminal method just isn't working for me so I'm going to try ADB. What do I have to do to get ADB setup and working with my MT4G?
Let me get home (be about 30 to 45 min) and I will try and walk you thru it.
My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!

ADB is a tool that needs to be ran from CMD Prompt. Just a quick example to make sure your seeing your phone and assuming you have already extracted the SDK package. FYI, I moved the tools folder into the sdk folder, makes it easier to access. I would open cmd promt and type:
Note: Hit enter at the end of each line.
cd \
cd sdk/tools
adb devices (this will start deamon and then show you your device if ADB drivers are installed.
To install the drivers plug your phone in and let it auto mount your sdcard then run HTCDriver.exe. Unplug your phone and plug it back in, it should now install the driver needed for ADB. To verify everything is installed right go to your Devices and look for Android USB Devices and under that should be My HTC.
Check out this link. Its kinda a how to typed up back in the G1 days.
YOu get this working?
Two quick questions; any help is much appreciated. As a newbie I am unable to get adb to detect my device; running 'adb devices' always yields an empty list under Windows 7. Searching different threads lead me to the recommendation to uninstall the mass storage device driver with USBdeview and then reinstall with the android usb driver (which is said to be under tools in the SDK); however, I can't find the driver file anywhere., nor is there an USB available package in the SDK. If someone could point me in the correct direction regarding how to run adb I'd be much appreciative; I have the SDK installed and the adb daemon appears to be running.
A quick second question is if I can get the device to be detected under adb, can mass storage driver and the android driver run simultaneously? Thanks again.

i downloaded "pda net " to my windows 7 64 bit pc when i was having the same usb issue, it then recognized my adb device(of course you have to uninstall the drivers that windows assigned to it first)... question 2 is yes!

You can always try Wireless ADB:

You mentioned that you had to first uninstall the drivers that Windows assigned to it first.
Would you please share how you went about doing that? I've been stuck on this part (adb not recognizing my device) for quite a while now and can't seem to get past it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much for the replies.....
Thanks. I tried each one but only the pad net worked. Regarding the second reply, there was no usb_driver folder in my Android SDK folder. I downloaded the inf file anyway but when I pointed to it during installation it gave me a 'file not found' error although it recognized the driver. PDA net worked fine. The adb wireless widget connected to my PC but the list of devices remained blank.
Thanks again for l the suggestions; perhaps as I become more knowledgeable I'll appreciate why the first and third suggestions didn't work, but I really appreciate your willingness to help.

The reason you had no usb driver folder is because the android sdk was not fully setup. You need to run the sdk setup file in the android sdk folder first and download the rest of it. There are a bunch of different packages available. Follow the prompts.
To connect by wifi you need to use one of the adb wifi widgets on your tablet. When it is ready it should give you an address to connect to.
Then on your pc from a command line change the directory to your tools folder in the android sdk. Then type adb connect "address from adb wifi widget" and hit enter. Should then connect.

Thanks again! The wireless adb directions worked, although I should note that adb.exe is in the "platform-tools" folder and most references suggest it should be in the "tools" folder.
I thought I had installed the SDK correctly using the .exe file but, after downloading a number of packages, no USB package was available. After seeing your post I uninstalled, downloaded the zip version, ran android.bat update SDK and it again installed available packages but no USB; these included Android SDK tools, rev 8, SDK Platform tools, rev 1, documentation for SDK API 9, SDK Platform for vers 1.5 - 2.3, and several sample packages. Under 'Available packages' no USB package is listed, and there no .inf file in any of the installed directories.
Any thoughts? Could the inf file be located somewhere else?

I have seen the same thing with the locations. I just copied the files in the platform-tools folder to the tools folder. Send me a pm with your email and i will send my USB folder if you want.
Hi. I 'figured' it out (if it could be called that). rather than click on 'update all' in SDK manager, I selected Android SDK tools, then clicked 'update all' which gave me a series of archives options, one of which included the USB package. This was very non-intuitive but worked.
Thanks!
Cool.. Don't forget to use the modded info file.

hi guys im getting anoyed with my pc and phone now ive followed so meany tutorial etc on how to install adb but still not getting any where so far i have done
1. downloaded sdk from code.google.com
2. extracted to c:/android-sdk-windows
3.installed htc wildfire drivers
4.created a path on enviromentable variuble
5.ive loaded the skd.exe
6. ran cmd and ran adb and adb devices but my pc will not reconise this command any adice please thanks
ps ive also tryed using qtaADB it connect to the phone but dnt show any thing frustrated now lol thanks daddyspud
First download adb for windows from " http://developer.android.com/sdk/ ".
then u will get a file named " android-sdk_r08-windows ".rename it as "Android SDK" after extracting.
download proper driver for your phone and install them .now move "Android SDK" to root of hard drive that is to c\Android SDK...
now update the adb using SDK manager that is inside Android SDK.all packeges even usb drivers.
connect the phone via usb and windows should recognize it as android phone .
now take "cmd".command prompt and type the following code .
cd\
cd Android SDK\tools\
adb devices
Now Adb is set if it shows your phone code ..
Sorry about my english .
I had a hardtime making my computer recognize my wildfire, I had to manipulate the driver to make it find it. just google it and you shall find .. if thats the problem ..
thanks worked a dream cheers buddie
They changed the location of the adb.exe file with the new SDK release using the example given would be :-
cd\
cd Android SDK\platform-tools\
easier in my opinion to add to path in windows
c:\android sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe
make sure u add java.exe to path aswell
Hope this helps

Well what do you want to do with adb?
run the sdk but i get errors when i start it "error 2" cant find file.
Failed to get the adb version.
Edit - Never mind i have sorted it.
I have read every post I can find pertaining to setting up ADB. On the first try, I was able to get my computer to recognize the device as an Android Phone with Android ADB Interface. However, whenever I try to execute an admin command prompt I get the following error:
'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.. I haven't done command prompts in 20 years (back when that was the only way to get the computer to do anything). It is probably a syntax error but I can't figure it out. I know how to change directories. Do I need the Android SDK and the Java JDK installed? I currently have a rooted Nook Tablet and all I want to do is sideload a few apps on this HD+, I'd rather not root until we get all the 'bugs' worked out. Thanks in advance.

Go to my HD+ tips thread linked in my signature. There is a file attached there, adb.rar. Download and extract that. There should be three files there. Put them in the folder on your PC where you want to run adb. That error you discussed is that it could not find those adb files in the folder you were running in.
