[Guide] Drivers & RRU Errors Solved

This guide is for anyone having issues with their HTC Hero drivers. It is aimed at Windows users and the guide was performed on Windows 7 x64 but relevant to older systems with minor adjustments (use common sense).
Most of it will be pictures, i'll try to fill in the rest in future and give it some layout but for the most part this process is easier to see than describe. Very much a work in progress.
Note: Unplug your phone from your pc for these processes until told otherwise. Remove any version of HTC Sync prior to 2.0.33 before doing these processes.
Might Need Apps:
HTC Sync for Android v1.5
HTC Sync for Android v2.1
USB Deview
Remove Old Drivers:
1. Start USBDeview by running the exe in the zip file
2. Remove any drivers which read like the following:
3. Reboot your machine
Installing The Correct Drivers:
1. Install the latest version of HTC Sync (2.0.40 or 3.0.5422)
2. Reboot
3. Right Click on Computer in your start menu and choose "Manage"

}
4. Select Device Manager on the left hand side.
5. Plug your phone into the PC and let the drivers install (you should see changes in device manager in real time). Under "ADB Interface" you should now see "My HTC" as seen in the picture.
This is correct and you should move onto the "Bootloader Drivers" section below. If you don't see this then carry on.
6. Right click on whatever you get under "ADB Interface" and do the following:
- Choose Update Driver Software...
- Browse my computer for driver software
- Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
- Have Disk
- Browse
- C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64 (last folder may be different)
- Select "androidusb.inf"
- OK
- Next
- Finish
You should now have the correct HTC Hero drivers installed. Move onto bootloader drivers section.
Bootloader Drivers:
Note: assumes you have the latest version of HTC Sync installed prior to doing this and have followed the driver process above to arrive here.
1. Switch off your phone and then hold Volume Down when you press the Power On button (Vol Down + Power).
2. You should have a white screen with some coloured text and 3 android's on skateboards. This is bootloader mode.
3. Now plug your phone into your pc and watch device manager change (this can take a minute or two). If "ADB Interface" doesn't show up or you get an "Unknown Device" error (perfectly normal - i think) then press the Back button and wait a couple of minutes then press volume Down again. This switches to Fastboot mode and back to Bootloader mode. AFAIK the drivers are the same so you should be able to do this process in either mode. You should get the driver "HTC Bootloader" or similar in your device manager. You need to repeat the steps above to change that to My HTC instead.
4. Right click on whatever you get under "ADB Interface" and do the following:- - Choose Update Driver Software...
- Browse my computer for driver software
- Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
- Have Disk
- Browse
- C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64 (last folder may be different)
- Select "androidusb.inf"
- OK
- Next
- Finish
You should now have the correct HTC Hero bootloader drivers installed. This will allow you to correctly install a RRU from HTC.

Brilliant guide! I have added it to my sig!

Nice one, thanks

Wow this worked 100% installed perfectly
thanks

[GUIDE] adb and fastboot drivers for Windows

If someone has problems installing the official Motorola adb and fastboot drivers for Windows, try the following, this works for me:
1. download the UniversalADB driver from @Koush here: https://github.com/koush/UniversalAdbDriver
2. install it
3. locate the file android_winusb.inf in the folder (may vary) x:\Program Files\ClockworkMod\Universal Adb Driver\usb_driver
4. open it with any texteditor
5. add the following two lines (somewhere in the devices section) and save the file:
Code:
MotorolaADBInterface = USB_Install, USB\VID_22B8&PID_2E76&REV_0228&MI_01
MotorolaBootLoaderInterface = USB_Install, USB\VID_22B8&PID_2E80&REV_0100
6. let Windows install this driver from koush's directory once in adb mode and once in fastboot mode (two drivers!)
7. enjoy!

Work fine thanks

Is the phone recognized by RSD Lite in fastboot mode with these drivers?
I have the Motorola drivers, using Windows 7 SP1 32-bit.
With USB debugging enabled I get a "Mot Composite ADB Interface" device in device manager (Driver Version 2.0.1.0).
The phone can be seen by 'adb devices' and in fastboot by 'fastboot devices' however using RSD lite 6.1.5 no device appears.

Got the same with the universal ADB/fastboot drivers damn.
[edit]
The MotoG PID is missing in PST.ini and/or sdk_common.ini, maybe we have to add it manually or wait for a new RSDlite

hi,
have you some newz about new RSDlite ?(maybe i'm too impatient ... )

Worked great. Thank you

Windows doesn't attempt to do anything when I connect the phone in ADB mode. Device Manager lists XT1034 under Other devices and says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". If I do "Update Driver Software" manually and direct it to the "ClockworkMod" directory, Windows says it cannot find driver software for the device. If I right click on the "android_winusb.inf" file and choose Install, Windows says the "file doesn't support this method of installation".

adb devices does't see my moto g
fastboot devices yes, but adb devices only says List of devices attached.
Any help will be appreciated

The latest update of UniversalAdbDriver does not require those lines to be added. Moto G device configuration is added by default
Tested in win7 64bit.

Thank you!!
it works for me
i installed Motorola device manager and this application

To solve this when u are in ADB go in device manager, find ur phone with yellow exclamation mark ( !), right click, insta driver-> manual-> android single sooner ADB interface! It will work like a charm!
Sent from my XT1032 using XDA Free mobile app

I had a similar problem on W7 x64, no driver available for my phone (Moto G LTE, XT1039) even with the Universal ADB driver from CWM and the two lines of the first post added in the INF file.
But, you can notice that all Motorola phones in the android_winusb.inf file refer to the same driver : MotCompositeInterface.
So I went to the Device Manager, found my phone, chose to Update the driver, Find a driver from my computer, Choose from List (sorry if the names are not accurate, my Windows version isn't in English).
Then, you can select ClockworkMod, scroll down to Mot Composite ADB Interface and choose it as your driver.
It worked for me (both in adb and fastboot mode), I was able to unlock my bootloader and flash a recovery using it.
Hope this helps !

Hi, I tried all the solutions in this post unsuccessfully, but I found one here: stackoverflow.com/questions/22217792/android-moto-g-mobile-doesnt-show-in-the-devices-list-of-eclipse
that is the simplest and the only one that worked for me.
Download 'Adb Driver Installer' from here adbdriver.com/downloads/
after this connect your Moto G and start the AdbDriverInstaller.exe it will list your device and then press install.

Need Help Manual Fastboot Driver Installation

Hello
Sorry if this was a very noob topic
I done lots of flashing new ROM or back in stock process but i almost gave up this time
My phone status are
No OS
TWRP installed
Can boot to recovery
PC can't recognize the phone
Typing ADB devices shows empty list
Typing Fastboot devices also shows empty lines
30% battery left
I recently try to install the Lollipop version for my phone but it turns out that the zip are behaving like OTA (yep the title of the zips are OTA)
What i mean is it returned my recovery to stock
Without thinking much further i did 'fastboot flash recovery TWRP2810.img' thing (Yes i rename recovery image that way so it will be more convenience for me) and wipe all partition in the phone through the TWRP without problems
One thing i forgot is to "refresh" all ADB and Fastboot driver for my phone on the PC
Now my phone states are "No OS" and "PC doesn't recognize my phone" wether in ADB (obvious cause i can't boot with no OS so no USB debugging for me) and Fastboot (Enter Bootloader is OK, enter TWRP is OK too)
I already try the WUG step for installing the needed driver but no success since my PC can't recognize my phone
Try on 4 PC at my office and all of them are ignoring my phone
What should i do now, please, any help will be appreciated since its already the time i ussualy already at home
Thank You Very VERY MUCH for any help I can get.

Okay, here's what you do.
Download the ADB drivers first, from here [URL="link"]http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Click to expand...

unsungkhan said:
Extract the zip.
Once you're done extracting, boot your phone into bootloader mode, plug in USB, should show up as an unrecognized device.
Device manager from control panel, select device, properties, driver, update device driver, browse my computer, let me pick, all devices, have disk, navigate to where you extracted zip, select inf file, adb interface.
Should work.

Do you happen to know other way around for tricking this Sir?

Please lock this unuseful thread

Before locking the thread, can you repeat all the steps and try with ADB Composite Device instead of ADB Interface?
Also, did you try changing USB ports, sometimes these things get a little troublesome because of faulty USB ports.
Last but not the least, you could also try a change of cables.

kingroot infected?

Hello all,
I recently started to get lots of popads on my device, so I ran my usual scan with Malwarebytes and it came up with KingRoot being heavily infected with malware. I cant uninstall, since its what i used to root and its also a system app. Any help?

see rootjunky's supersume video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3O3DcpeS_Ic
or manually install supersu with a terminal emulator
http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html

Ill try the rootjunky method in a few hours, I tried the terminal emulator installed and it just forceclosed all apps and rebooted.
Sent from my KFTBWI using XDA Labs

So I got a bit impatient, and decided to retry the w0lfdroid method. The same thing happened from last time (apps wouldnt open) and so I decided to reboot.
As the device began to shutdown, SuperSU appeared for a few seconds, then my device switched off. I believe I have bricked my device as it has been stuck on the 'fire' logo for the past 10 minutes. Congrats to me ._.

I tried to install adb and its drivers, however drivers wouldnt install saying 'windows couldnt find any driver software for you device' when i point it to the drivers. Any idea why?

Have I done it right? I hope I've done everything. Also when I open ADB a load of text flashes down the cmd box for about a second then it closes. Ran as administrator and everything. Hoping I can get this fixed by the weekend...

Ok, I think I got it.
Doing adb devices gives me G000HH0454340LB9, I beleive this is the correct device?
Anyways, plan is:
Boot into recovery on device and select apply update from adb
Get the 5.1.1 update (firmware it originally had) and place it in the folder adb installed in.
Do adb sideload (file name)
Wait (maybe grab a cup of coffee?)
Hopefully success, back to stock firmware!
Afterwards ill root with kingroot and then remove using rootjunky supertool.

Ok, this is getting kinda annoying.
Placed the update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720 .bin file in the same folder I have adb installed.
Booted devices into recovery mode, selected apply update from adb
Open adb, do adb sideload update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720
Get error message 'cannot read update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720'
Have ALL correct drivers and stuff installed @sd_shadow

Can anyone help? I really need this fixing...

try downloading the firmware again, or try a different version like 5.1.2
which version is on it now?

The version on my device before it was bricked is 5.1.1. I'm staying on that version since its the easiest to root.

[Guide] Fix Device Not Showing Up In Fastboot Mode (Windows 10/11)
You sir are saint...I've been trying to get fastboot to recognize my OP6T for the last 8 hours. Thank you so much!
forum.xda-developers.com

in my case, the other devices it doesnt show when i connect it with usb and it also doesnt show USB CONNECTED notification on my status bar? it would be really helpful if someone can help with the fix, Thankks and Appreciated.

I just went through the same exercise. However, I did not want to download drivers from unknown source (or even worse - run some *magical* driver fixing executable), right?
I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite and the ADB drivers came from Samsung and adb was working.
However, once I put the tablet in fastboot mode the USB re-enumerated and Samsung drivers didn't cut it!
Inspecting DeviceManager gave me the USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE0 and Google search shows this is actually a Google VID. The rest is history: Downloaded (signed!) driver from Google (specifically this) and voila - life is good!
I hope this may help others avoiding wizardry with unsigned drivers.

I didn't think I'd get to ask something like this but here I am:
I can't get the phone to be detected while it is bootloader mode to my PC. I always updated and rooted my phone without any issue but with f.15 I can't.
All drivers are fine because I've rooted f.13 like one month ago so i really don't know what to do.
I remember once I had to install "Android Bootloader Interface" but now when I'm in bootloader mode my PC doesn't see the phone. No "unknown android" under window devices manager, nothing.
When the phone is ON I see "ADB Interface" in devices manager, when it's OFF nothing shows up in the list like the PC doesn't see I've plugged my phone.
What am I missing?
Thx in advance

Not sure if this will help but I would run "usbview" to see what is enumerated. Since the tree is very bid these days with many hubs and USB devices already connected you might first plug-in anything known to the same USB port to see where on the tree it sits. Then plug-in the phone and look at the same spot ("bark at the same tree" ;-) )
If you nave a NIX system "lsusb" will do you similar service. Both are driver independent. Then (if the phone is recognized) get the VID and PID and google what got enumerated and you may end-up with the right driver.
In the case nothing is detected at this low level the only explanation I would have is that the boot doesn't initialize the USB interface on the phone. That would be weird and nasty.

Hey
While trying to install drivers using have disk I encounter a problem. After navigating to the android-usb.inf file I press ok and it rolls back to asking me where is the disk. I tried disabling driver enforcement but to didn't work. It's like windows doesn't want to work. I am using a win 11 copy via parallels on an M1 Mac.
