I am trying to flash Android 2.3.3 with Cynagon Mod but I cannot because my Win7 computer wont install the driver properly, it says Fastboot Interface Google USB ID but it also says there was an error in installing it, so what do I do
The CMD is stuck on < waiting for device >
Install all drivers with this tools : http://www.mediafire.com/?oqbqy9e74uqj5s9
So I am having a lot of problems with trying to root my nexus 7. I'm pretty sure it boils down to a driver issue but I'm not sure. I have tried installing the correct drivers over and over again also uninstalling other hardware manufacturers drivers and I cannot get adb to recognize my device when it is shut off and in the boot loader.
When the tablet is on and I have debugging on, adb shows up and is recognized, however my problem is that whenever I reboot into the boot loader I lose adb recognition. So therefore I can't root or do anything else. Fast boot commands work fine its only the issue with adb.
If anyone has any suggestions as to what I can do I would really appreciate it. I don't know if its just a hardware issue or something I am doing wrong on my end.
This is also not my first time manually unlocking/rooting a device
When you initially connect, the device shows up as a "Nexus 7".
When you reboot into the boot loader, the device name changes, and there is no driver for that device.
As far as I could tell, I would have to do the root process under Linux to avoid this issue.
As for me, I just ignored the issue. By the time you reboot the bootloader, you are already rooted.
The only thing you do after the reboot is rename a file. For now I am missing that step...
Yeah I'm using windows xp. When its in boot loader it does change names. I can unlock the bootloader via fastboot but can't do anything with adb. Lol I don't know what else I can do, I'm at a loss.

Like I said - I think you are done...
Install a terminal on the Nexus and see what it says to "su". I use one called "terminal emulator". Works fine.
I think fastboot uses adb.
If you connect your Nexus, and type "adb devices" in a command window what does it say?
I believe it says devices attached or something like that. (Not at my computer) but doesn't give me a serial # like I think it should.
If you do not have USB Debugging checked, "adb devices" will just show the List of devices line.
If I set USB debugging on, "adb devices" also shows the Nexus serial number.
If you don't see that, I would double check the device driver you are using.
Under Device Manager, Android Phone, Android Composite ADB Interface it shows:
Driver: Google Inc.
Date: 5/24/2012
Version: 6.0.0.0
Digital Signer: google inc.
Well if I have USB debugging on and tablet on and do adb devices I get the serial # but once I go into boot loader and do adb devices I don't get the serial #.
For device manager I can choose adb interface or adb original interface. I'll have more info when I get out of work and at my computer. Do you have a link to the drivers you used? Or where to find them. Because I have tried a couple of different drivers posted around to no avail.
BTW thanks for helping me out.
I would not use any posted driver - you don't know where that thing has been.
Download the SDK from Google; the correct driver is in there.
Just point the device manager to it when you install drivers.
There are a lot of good descriptions on installing drivers in the other nexus forums
But - again - I think your device driver is fine. You will not be able to talk to the Nexus from ADB after you boot the bootloader
Bootloader has a different device name which ADB can't use under Windows.
Use Linux if you want to do that.
ok, so pretty much what happens is when my tablet is powered on with usb debugging everything is fine and ADB is recognized. Now my problem seems to be when i reboot into the bootloader it seems as though the drivers dont stick and it asks me to install the drivers again and this is where i have had all of my issues. When i type in adb devices in, it just tells me "list of devices attached" and wont let me do anything else (fastboot works). Like i said i was able to unlock my bootloader but i cant flash recovery or do anything else.
When i go into device manage to select the drivers it gives me the option of choosing between adb interface, adb bootloader interface, adb orignal interface and nexus 7 bootloader interface. I have tried all options and nothing seems to work. I have tried multiple usb cords and ports.
If anyone else has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.
I didn't read through everything but your initial problem is adb doesn't work in the bootloader that's where you use fastboot commands either boot into a custom recovery or just boot up normal and make sure debugging is checked.
Try running fastboot devices and see if it shows up. What you need to do is have bootloader unlocked and dismiss the super user zip floating around here pot that on sd card download cwm recovery image floating around boot into bootloader then
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
select recovery from the menu
Flash the super user zip
Or download a rom that has root and put that on sd card instead of super user zip and after doing the steps above then selecting super user zip select the rom you downloaded and flash. If you're on Linux run sudo first.

Good day guys,
I need a help with my nexus 4, I had a rooted rom in my nexus 4 with clockwork mode recovery, I tried to wipe my data through clockwork mode but by mistake I did system wipe. Now there is no rom in the device, I can only access to fastboot mode and clockwork recovery mode, also I tried to install rom through toolkit but my PC & Mac doesn't read any device connected and no device shown in device manger in my windows 7 with using different usb cables and ports. I installed samsung drivers and adb drivers but still I cannot see the device in device manager.
Please if any body can help me to install rom back to my device.:crying:

In cwm there should be an option to mount the device as usb storage. Try that. It should let you plug the phone into the pc and simply copy the zip onto the phones internal sd.
If thats not working try this to set up the drivers. Then plug the phone in and boot into the bootloader/fastboot mode. The open command prompt and cd to the android-sdk/platform-tools directory. Then run the following command:
Code:
adb push /path/to/rom/on/pc/ /mnt/sdcard/
still not working
Still not connected to windows, I cannot do any thing with my device
Download any ROM and do the following:
1. Connect phone to PC when in fastboot
2. Install drivers (if required)
3. Flash latest version of CWM using fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
4. Reboot phone into fastboot using fastboot reboot-bootloader
5. Boot into CWM
6. Install drivers (if required)
7. Select 'Install via sideload'
8. Flash ROM using adb sideload name_of_rom.zip
9. Follow instructions in CWM
If that still doesn't work, go back to stock using this guide (and read ALL of it):

Thank you for your quick replay
My problem now that I cannot connect my device to PC, I installed drivers every thing and when I open fast boot or recovery mode and plug the cable, nothing indicates on my PC that there is a device connected even device manager not showing any device connected... I am stuck now, I cannot install any rom to get phone life back.
don't worry! the biggest problem would be that you had no drivers installed!
nexus are super easy to recover and you can play with them safely (except if you flash wrongs kernels from other devices haha)
do what my mate gets up in the post! and it will fixed it.

It's not that it's not showing, it might already be installed correctly. When you have the Nexus 4 connect in fastboot it will show in Device Manager as 'Android Bootloader Interface' under the heading of 'Android Phone (see attached)

i've the same problem in my nexus 4.. Could u recover from that?
So I deleted everything in my phone, including the Rom I wanted to flash (smart, right?) and all I have is TWRP Recovery mode and Download Mode. When I put my phone into any mode, my PC does not recognize it and I therefor cannot fix it... I've tried it on three computers with downloading and updating the drivers. The first time it works after installing and updating the drivers, but when I put it in the second time it does not work. I need to unplug my phone in download mode while doing the LG program, and the computer won't recognize or find my phone. All help is greatly appreciated and thanks to repliers in advance
Day 2 of not having a phone: I can't do this xD I need to fix it somehow, if anyone can help me please do
Boot to recovery and start adb sideload mode. Then from your computer just adb sideload rom.zip
If your phone doesnt install the drivers once in sideload mode then manually search for the adb bridge driver from the android sdk and install it.

Tried that and it would say "device not found." and other error codes. One time I was able to load my device onto the computer and after it completed the CM 11 transfer it stopped. I may have to order an OTG cable or something...
So i decided to root my A1. But fastboot isn't working for me.
Tried with previous adb files.
Adb works properly.
But when device is rebooted into fastboot mode. Fastboot isn't and to talk to it.
Updated adb and fastboot (sdk tools and even in AIO tool)
Just adb works.
Reboot to fastboot and my device is not detected.
Disabled driver signature enforcement in windows 10
OEM unlocking allowed.
Usb debugging on.
Tried multiple times.
Nothing seems to work.
Maybe driver problem but since adb works i don't think that's the problem and i have installed it again from AIO Toolkit.
Try different usb cable or usb 2.0 port
I had similar issue, fastboot was detected but haven't been able to do any command. So when the phone was powered on with selected usb to transfer files, in device manager the phone was listed as "Android phone - Android Composite ADB Interface", I updated the driver to "ADB Interface", rebooted in bootloader and was able to communicate through fastboot.

I would if i could get my hands on one. But i can't not for few more weeks.
Adb is working fine. File transfer is working fine. Charging is working fine.
So I don't think cable is at fault

Did u tested this? Reboot to fastboot mod and connect mobile to pc. then right click my computer then device manager. Then check for A1 port. Update /install driver Automatically from internet. May be it will help , may be not.
ADB drivers are different than fastboot. If you can detect with ADB and not fastboot, I would suspect you have a driver problem. Boot into fastboot, then check device manager for your device. It might not have any drivers installed and be an unrecognized device, or it could have incorrect drivers installed. My device needed fastboot drivers, I had the same problem as you.
Thanks all of you. Fastboot driver was the issue.
