Hello.
And bacon and spam:
I've recently upgraded my SGS to ICS (ICSSGS ROM) and started to develop a simple application.
So, now i've got to the point that the emulator starts to show its limitations, so i need to debug directly on the real device.
Well, i've been trying to make ADB recognize my phone, tried several usb drivers from several sites, none of them worked.
After several hours spanking windows, it's finally working (yes! almost 6 AM in the morning!).
What matters:
So, to anybody who have the same problem as i had, do the following:
0. Uninstall any drivers that you've tried before.
1. Extract the zip file that i've uploaded to anywhere you like.
2. Enable debugging on your phone and connect it to PC throught the USB cable
(Just connect it, don't mount)
3. On your computer, click Start -> Right click on "Computer" -> Manage
This will open the "Computer Management" window (it might take some seconds to load).
4. Click "Device Manager". Now you should find your device in the list. It must be really easy to find. It's called something like "GT-I9000" or "GalaxyS" and it has a yellow warning sign next to it.
5. Right click on it and choose "Update Driver Software". In the window that appears, choose "Browse my computer for driver software". It then asks you where is the driver.
6. Click the "Browse" button and choose the folder you extracted from my zip file.
(If you didn't change it, it must be called "Android Composite ADB Interface")
7. Click "Next" and cross your fingers. If you're lucky, it may work for you.
Final notes:
1. I'm not responsible for ANYTHING. Whatever you do, it's your own choise to do it. I guarantee absolutely nothing.
2. This is was tested on Windows 7 - 64 bits with Team ICSSGS RC4.2 ROM and Semaphore ICS 0.9.1 Kernel.
3. Have fun.
4. If you try this, please answer the topic and tell everybody if it's working for you (mentioning your Windows version and what ROM you use).

Missing file when installing driver on windows 7 x64
Hi,
I have recently installed the most recent Dark Knight ICS 4.0.4 build to my Samsung Galaxy S. The ROM seems very good but I'm an android app developer and need to be able to debug my applications on the device via USB.
I have tried the driver provided in the thread which won't install due to a missing file according to the Windows 7 x64 driver install wizard. The exact message is displayed after step 7 and says:
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it."
"Android Composite ADB interface"
"The system cannot find the file specified".
Is there a file missing in the package? Has anybody managed to get this driver working?
Cheers,
Ben
Does it say that it doesn't find a controller or that is there a missing file?
Anyway, please try this installer and let me know if it works for you:

What's wrong with the Nexus S drivers available with Android SDK?
Google USB driver, R4 developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
The SGS will present it self like that when it is running ICS/CM7/CM9.

Dont work for me.
System: Windows 7 x64
Android 4.04 Dark Knight
Nevertheless thanks for your approach. I'll test if it works with the SDK Updater.
I'm going to test in my desktop this weekend to check if it works with it.
I have the same problem, but with WIndows 7 32 bit. Drivers from discusion doesn't work. Don't you have some for 32 bit?
I found SDK Components on developer.android.com, where is Android driver which suppose to work, but unfortunately ODIN still do not see phone.
I also have the same problem but mine is worse because my phone is completely down after I tried to restore from a GB ndriod backup failure , phone won't boot , cannot boot into recovery only in download mode but no way my 4 x computers would detect the phone now ....tried using heimdall in linux as well as sdb, no go....so sad...help...

Using Google USB drivers finally worked for me. They can be optionally installed with Android SDK using SDK manager (extras). After installation drivers can be found in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver.
Just follow the instructions in the first post to find your device from device manager with exclamation mark. Need at least one reboot to work and I also redirected the driver installation process to Google usb driver directory but now ADB finally recognizes my SGS (MyICS, Android 4.0.3).
Edit: Operating system Vista 64-bit
[Currently stuck in "error: device not found" while trying adb push -command. I will update if I find a workaround. Probably something to do with inf-file.]
For alternate .inf -file (optional):
Google "usb-drivers-not-working-after-flash-latest-rom-ota" and see post #12 to see alternative inf-file. Some have managed to make adb recognize the device with that file, but I have at least this far been unsuccessful.
Edit: Problem above was caused by me being stupid and trying to use push in shell, which caused phone unable to locate host system folders. I don't know if that inf file has anything to do with drivers working now, but go ahead and try it if doesn't work with the original .inf
I got my i9000 recognized using the latest drives from the Google sdk
That‘s great

This worked for me
The very important thing is that newest Google USB driver is in
Code:
[B]<android-sdk>/extras/google/usb_driver/[/B]
location, not in
Code:
<android-sdk>/usb_driver
It really makes the difference !
these drivers only worked once...
all the other times killing and starting over adb i was getting error messages like "device not found" and "protocol fault" even though adb devices was listing the device online.
apparently i connected the phone to another USB3 port on my pc (front panel) and that was it!! it now works every time i type adb shell or adb devices.i no longer get any error messages.rather weird
anyway..i also wanted to be up to date with everything so i uninstalled all related software like the older java 6 jdk, Android SDK and the drivers mentioned above.
i followed the procedure below and installed all the latest packages:
latest java 7u5 JDK, the latest Android SDK (nstaller_r20.0.1-windows.exe) then ran sdk-manager and loaded http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html#InstallingDriver google USB drivers rev 6. then installed these drives so i got the ADB composite interface on my device manager and it all works fine now.
I recenelty installed latest ICS , and SDK recognizes my phone as ACER ADB , when I'm pretty sure its a Samsung I9000 . I tried uninstalling the ACER ADB and install the one that the guy posted in the first post , and it didn't work , it said this driver is not compatible , oddly it reinstalled ACER ADB though. I can't even uninstall it at all , I removed all my Samsung drivers , and everything else I installed for Samsung , and its still there , I even tried removing the GOOGLE USB drivers , still there.
Neendless to say that the phone doesnt connect to the PC at all even though it says everything is alright. For example i got ths gPAD app , which uses the USB with Debugging to turn the phone into a mouse , but it says its not connected even though it is.
Okay, let me preface this with the following: Yes, I've searched through XDA, Rootz, and Google to try to solve this. I've unlocked plenty of devices before including both the LTE GNex and the GSM variant.
I cannot for the life of me get my Nexus 7 to be recognized as an ADB device. No drivers automatically install regardless of what mode the device is in when connected...which is fine, I'm used to manually installing drivers...assuming I can FIND the d*** things. I've uninstalled all Samsung drivers just in case and yes, all SDK tools and drivers are up to date.
I found this thread with the Universal Naked Driver v0.7 and tried manually pointing to it from Device Manager (on Windows obviously). It says Windows found the driver software but that "The hash for the file is not present in the specified catalog file." blah blah it won't install the drivers. I've tried redownloading to be sure the download wasn't corrupt and that didn't help.
I'm literally pulling my hair out and it's incredibly annoying that Asus doesn't make drivers available on their website. Does anyone have any ideas?? Thanks!
I had to uninstall the drivers for it in device manager then install the new ones. Until I did that it wouldn't work

Well guys I've been trying for hours now, whenever I try to install the USB drivers in order to unlock my bootloader, when I plug in my Nexus it installs the MTP drivers on it's own, if I try to install the google drivers downloaded from ADB all I get is a message saying the best drivers for my device are already installed and it doesn't let me overwrite them.
If I go with the use disk option it doesn't let me choose the usb_drivers folder because it just wants to use a .inf file, whener I follow the instructions the toolkit dictates I read the dead end with the "The best drivers for your device are already installed"
I'm so angry right now.... Please help me.
Are you on a Windows XP operating system by any chance? There are major issues with MTP mounting on WinXP regardless of the service pack you're on. Some people claim they've gotten things working by updating WMP, via a Naked Driver and even by installing the Android SDK. Let me know if you are indeed on WinXP & I'll get you some links
Did you try following Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit to install the drivers? That helped me. I cannot post a link so look around for it.
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit, thanks guys, I just gave up and did it in my sister's laptop, it worked on the first damn attempt, maybe the drivers of my N10 were screwing something up, that's my best guess.
Glad you got that sorted--just for future reference, a common recommendation for people having driver issues with their Nexus devices is to simply go into Win Device Manager, uninstall all your current Nexus & ADB drivers and restart. Then plug your phone in via USB and let the auto installation do its thing. Usually this fixes all issues w conflicting device drivers
So, I've been trying to install the drivers for a generic rk29 rockship tablet. I had to go to adbdriver installer as a last resort. Yet, not even this helps. It says that it's incompatible with my x64 windows 8. picture attached. Any help is appreciated.
You can try running the installer in Compatibility Mode (right-click the file, go to Properties, set Compatibility Mode for Win7). That might work. Or it might not. Or it might bluescreen. But there's at least a chance it would work.
A bit misleading that it says xp/vista/7/8 x86 and x64 and then errors on x64.
I would try what gooddaytodie suggested and then contact the manufacturer to complain.
Or get virtualbox, install Linux within and use adb through that but that is an absolute faff to go through for 1 driver. You don't tend to need device specific adb drivers under Linux, just the adb itself.
I am install manually with disable signature process and its working on my Windows 8.1
Ah, completely unsigned driver. Good times... (not). Hope you trust the source.
I used the HTC drivers. I just extracted the files from the installer and installed the driver manually through device manager.

Needed to disable the driver enforcement to install my stellaris launchpad on windows 8 which is entirely contrary to texas instruments installation instructions but I do not appear to be the only one that had to do that.
Can someone please send me a Google Drive link to the drivers they downloaded. My archives are claiming they're corrupted.
Hi, where can I find the correct drivers for Yotaphone 2? I tried the driver that comes with the flasher tool, but somehow it does not install (yes, I right-clicked on the INF file and selected Install, but nothing happened after that)
Thanks in advance for the help!
Right clicking the INF file and selecting install most of the time doesn't yield any results on screen. It is a silent install. You can check if they are installed by comparing the size of the installed androidusb.sys in C:\Windows\System32\drivers with the size in the AMD64 and i386 folders in the yotaflasher folder. It is either 31kb (AMD64) or 26kb (i386).
Drivers
Thanks for the reply.
I checked the system folder on my PC, and the drivers were not installed. Somehow clicking on "Install" for the INF file does nothing
Is there some other way to install the drivers? Can I simply copy the driver files to the system folder

Hi, does anyone have a suggestion to install the drivers? I am on Windows 10

You can try installing the default Google drivers. You can find everything you need in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
You use device manager to install " legacy drivers" and "have disk" , it is mentioned several times here including the one above.

Hi, I really appreciate the replies and patience with this
I already tried that but I get the message:
The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the device contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems
What do I need to do?
These worked for me:

Thanks, sonof.
I tried the installer from the link you gave.
Somehow it is not showing any detected device at all.
How do I get it to detect my phone in order to install the driver?
Did you solve it? I have the same problem, can't see the device...
