I set up sdk and did exactly as all gamers direction say but still having issues with the drivers even after a whole weekend of trying. I then read to vet PDA.net for the drivers and when I go to devices manager I can't see the nexus s .when I go to control panel with the USB plugged in I do see nexus but as I stated will not show up in device manager so I'm not sure if there installed properly. Ive got a Sony laptop with windows 7.

Did you enable USB debugging on your Nexus S (settings -> applications -> development -> usb debugging)

While this is a helpful guide, it has you downloading the Galaxy S drivers and installing them. This is entirely unnecessary.
Why does it have you moving ADB and it's libraries from platform-tools to tools? So that you can add tools into the PATH? They were moved in the SDK a while back, they will live in platform-tools going forward.
If fastboot isn't seeing your device open up android_winusb.inf and add an entry for the Nexus S
Code:
;Nexus S
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E20&REV_0100
Feel free to add it under both [Google.NTamd64] and [Google.NTx86]
Yep I made sure USB debugging was enabled. Thanks for support I sure appreciate it going to try as soon as I get home from work.can't wait to be overclocked with some toggle in the drop down.I never had these many problems trying to get the drivers recognized by my PC even after j manually showed my PC exactly were they were.I will definitely post and hope I have this dam problem solved

Usb debugging doesnt matter in bootloader. You connect your phone while in bootloader to install fastboot drivers.

I was having issue with the 32bit drivers for my epic, so I did a google search and I found some updated drivers for the phone. The phone connects fine to my computer when it is on, and until recently also while in download mode. However I do not know what happened after I updated the kernel that it does not recognize my phone when using odin.
The one listed for in the wiki is ver. 1.3.450.0 and the version I found is ver. 1.3.800.0.
I hope that this will help others who have issue with the drivers for there phone. I am on Win7 ultimate as well.
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cda250e/n/Samsung_Mobile_Driver_V1.3.800_For_SPH-d700_Epic_4G.zip
I haven't had any problems, but if they are updated, they must have improved something. Maybe USB transfer rates are better.
THANKS
You are welcome. I hope that it does improve performance for the phone to pc lol.

I would like to just bump this in the hopes that it can be added to the wiki or to any other posts that display driver downloads for the epic as this is the newest version out from samsung for the 32bit system.

These drivers are NOT new. I've been using them since the day I got my Epic 4G last August. Always thought it was odd people used older ones.
hmmm... wonder if this is why I had issues when I had to start using a different PC, loaded drivers and bunch of stuff didnt work right... using 1.3.8 now, wonder if I was using old ones and didnt notice it switched when I re-downloaded em... I think anyone can edit the wiki.... just add the newer and dont ditch the older in case theyre better... idunno how though. Would be good to be added to the stickys for rooting etc, as they seem to be much more widely used... most people see the specs of the phone on the wiki top page and go 'this is useless, move on...'
Well I these new drivers help you out good luck

Im having a hell of a time figuring out how to configure git in Ubuntu 11.10. I am very new to the Linux environment and was wondering if someone could help me get my foot in the door and at least get the my work environment set up properly and the proper source code downloaded. Im really only interested in modifying the kernel so if you can help me set up and understand whats going on Id be greatly appreciative.
Thanks...
oh dude dont even get me started on linux ive literally just spent the past 2hrs trying to get flash to work on kubuntu i got so pissed i uninstalled and am switching back to ubu as we speak lol. ubuntu should have an irc help channel i know xubuntu did when i was playing around with it.
i just looked and there channel is #ubuntu
huzza!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! freakin a i finally got flash to work properly on kde shell i completly uninsulated kubuntu installed ubuntu downloaded flash from adobe not from the software center then put it in mozilla/ plugins folder and reinstalled kde on ubuntus terminal and all my settings stook. sorry for the rambling but yall have no idea of how stoked i am im probably going to make kde my default desktop now lol
I'm just having trouble getting ADB to recognize my phone. Also it seems Samsung didn't include a config file for the kernel to add things like overclocking etc.. Unless its hidden somewhere else?

U building from source?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium
I have the source just not too sure how to utilize it in Ubuntu, like I said I'm learning as I go. I tried doing an adb pull from my phone for the config file in windows and I get the error "file or directory does not exist" however it did work when I tried it with my Acer A500...
Is there a config.gz included in the source somewhere? I've been reading about something called defconfig but there are numerous references to that within the source.
If I can find that file I feel like building our own kernel would be infinitely easier... Maybe I'm too optimistic..
i actually recocmend installing linux mint first a lot more stuff works out of the box with it but if you like unity just search for ubuntu in the software manager and u can install it over mint.
Just as an FYI, you are likely not going to be able to use Ubuntu 11.10 to build the Continuum kernel. You'll need to use either 10.04 (LTS) or 10.10 to get the proper build tools. Also, getting git to work should be as simple as installing it. I believe it is under git-core or similar. You should have a look at the page for setting up a build environment for AOSP on what to install and such, as it is a pretty good starting point.
Minty Fresh
I tried installing Mint over Unity with no success. All of the other desktop environments work, but not Mint. I wonders why.
u need to install the mint live cd first then one youve got everything update install ubuntu u can search for it in the package manage or get it in terminal
i believe the command is sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop

Anyone know what defconfig the Continuum uses? There are about 100 different defconfigs within the kernel source. Does the Continuum have a codename or something?
P.S. everything seems to be working fine in Ubuntu 11.10.

It should be listed in the readme with the source, but it should be something like "garnett_defconfig"
I've searched the forums but couldn't find any guidance for installing the drivers on Windows 8. I've downloaded the all inclusive drivers and tried manually installing them but they are unsigned so Microsoft would not let me install them. If anyone knows of a way, I'd really appreciate it.
Worked for me on Win8
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996051
you have to disable the driver signification to install the drivers
http://laslow.net/2012/03/14/disable-driver-signature-enforcement-in-windows-8/
I am also using Windows 8 and for me it seemed as the drivers that came with the android-sdk where properly signed, because I had not to disable driver signifaction before installing them...

Hi, I recently installed Ubuntu desktop on my Nexus 7 using multirom.
It all went well and works well if you use a mouse with an OTG cable, I understand it was meant for developers but has anyone been able to install the tegra 3 drivers and keep unity/taskbar working?
When I install the drivers and reboot, it boots up and looks better but doesn't have unity or the taskbar. I can get into terminal with a keyboard and pretty much everything can open but its not exactly usable this way.
Thanks.

Which Tegra 3 drivers are you talking about? Ubuntu Desktop for Nexus 7 should already come with all the drivers it needs.
Its very slow and doesn't play videos, only sound. Also, in "about this computer" or something like that, none of the hardware or even the devices name is recognized. Here's a link to it https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/armhf/nvidia-tegra3/16.0-0ubuntu3

Yes, those drivers are already included in Ubuntu Desktop for Nexus 7. They do have issues though (lots of screen tearing). Playing video shouldn't be a problem though if you have the right codecs installed.

Edit: in "about computer" none of the nexus 7 hardware is displayed, I thought its strange since the version was made specifically for the nexus, is this normal?

Yes that's normal. Canonical ported Ubuntu to the Nexus 7 solely to test it and optimize it for low-spec devices. They didn't do a whole lot to polish it up and make it presentable for end users because that wasn't really their goal

Yeah man. Multirom is an app made for nexus devices that let's you multiboot ROM and distros. I've got cm11, ubunut and active plasma installed right now. Just read the how to's on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011403 and download the Ubuntu 13.04 from that page. If you want a few other distros for multirom get them here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093797. It really is the easiest way to actually dual boot. And the dev is amazingly helpful. Don't hesitate to report a bug to him.
