Hi,
I have been messing with this for a few weeks now.
I have a magic 32B, spl 0004
I don't know how but i got cyanogenmod 4.2.5 on my phone.
But then i tried to use the update app and it fails.
It seems that there are 2 problems.
1. my recovery is still the stock one
2. i just cant seem to get a good connection with my computer.
Every time i try something its waiting for device.
Or with adb devices its an empty list.
i used a windows vista machine and a windows 7 machine
Is there someone who is willing to help me get this done?
I checked threads about, usb drivers, installing adb, installing recovery.img, installing cyanogen.
But there is always a step that just doesn't go according to the manuals.
i was about to give up, but i just really want this to work.
As you have already stated you have a stock recovery.img on the phone, to get the cyanogenmod updater program to work you need a custom one, the instructions to install this can be found on cyanogenmod.com in the downloads section.
If you are having problems getting the phone to connect to the pc make sure the drivers have installed correctly, you can download them at the link bellow incase you cant find them, by default they dont download with the sdk anymore, dont know why :-|

I have tried to install a custom recovery, but when i follow the steps i cant seem to connect to my phone via CMD.
When i check the drivers.. i'm not sure its 100% correct.
I have installed the once before.
and now he doesn't ask me for the drivers anymore.
but neither do i see it in the devicemanager, the way its being described in the manuals.
just something else involving android, but not ADB
i have tried to follow the manual, and threats about how to get the driver right..
but with this, i also have had problems with the steps..
On your phone go into settings....applications....Development and make sure
you have USB debugging enabled

Great.. it would not install the SDK..
So back on my windows 7 machine..
still getting device not found in CMD - adb devices
connected with usb debugging on..
cant see anything in device manager, but the system also doesnt ask for drivers...
I went into fastboot and then it asked me for drivers..
Now i do have
Android phone - Android Bootloader interface
but in any other situation, it does not show anything or ask anything.
I just keep getting device not found...
having trouble with ADB
i sold my nexus one, so my computer is setup for ADB devices but for some reason it doesn't find the vibrant...also tried to root using method in android developement and it didn't work
any ideas?
Going to assume that your phone is rooted. Go into settings -> applications -> development and make sure that USB debugging is enabled as well as Allow mock locations
then try it in ADB and it should detect your Vibrant.. make sure that drivers for the phone are also installed
phones not rooted yet...does it need root to use adb? which phone drivers u talkin about the usb for androidsdk or is there something else?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929 Those drivers.
And uhm.. I don't know if it needs root to use ADB but it would make sense to be rooted so you can have ADB without any restrictions.
Was USB debugging enabled?
ok well i put the update.zip file on the root of the internal memory and hold down the volume up and down and it just boots normally
ok adb is working....i didn't see those drivers thanks
now just the update.zip, cant seem to get into recovery, i geta Downloading....Do not turn off target !!!
ok got everything working
thanks
Same Problem USB DEBUGGING
I just want to be able to use the USB Debugging feature. Is this something that is unly available with root? If so then I have no problem, if now I am not able to have the pc detect my Vibrant when in USB Debugging mode. It will connect without it so I'm curious as to my first question. I am not rooted, but plan to soon.
Thanks for any help

[EDIT]: Phone rooted and still have same problem!!!
Any help would be appreciated!!

bump for assistance
Is there no one who is not having trouble connecting to ADB. I have seen many posts of those who have ADB working flawlessly. I am running xp pro and have connected both my G1 and Mytouch through this machine, but I was able to use the ADB Debugging option. I cant seem to get this working.
I would greatly appreciate a little help.

I had a few issues getting adb to work also. Turns out my adb server was out of date. Once I downloaded the sdk all over again it works fine. If you haven't done that try it because I was stuck and could connect to my other phones, but not this one.
Why would you use winblues os to run adb? Use the real OS that underlines your Android phones!

you need winblues drivers for sammy, search for samsung kei software
The updating of my SDK made the difference. I was able to install the correct driver and now ADB is working smoothly again. Thanks for all your help.

My friend has the samsung intercept and I was going to help him root it. I have tried Z4root and gingerbreak but they didn't work.
Does anyone have a site on how to root? Or instructions?
I am a very experienced android user and I am very comfortable with ADB if it is needed.
Anybody know?
Let's try again. Does anyone here know?
S.D.X. Everything you need to know for the intercept
Yes I found that method as well. We tried that about twenty times along with another 1 click at xda, z4, and gingerbreak. Is there an Adb method? Also, would rageagainstthecage work?

S.D.X. is a website S.D.X. developers They have several guides to rooting.I rooted mine with a programed called sw updater with my pc but now ther are easier ways.
Ok thank you I will check it out
You're going to need to run one (or several) of the root exploits (until they 'take') and then edit some files manually via adb to make it permanent. See the SDX Developers website as previously noted.
It won't let me post a link but Google this...
how-to-install-custom-kernelrom-on-your-intercept-using-cm01-recovery
I did it with SWUpgrade Tool, but...
1) Even though I could connect and swap files between my phone and my computer over USB, SWUpgrade for some reason would not recognize my USB connection on Windows XP SP 3. This page along with the Samsung driver link on the same page saved my ass...
Google this - Troubleshoot driver error June Fabrics android
2) With the SWUpgrade you have to be really quick and unplug the USB and take out the battery when he says to, or you will not get the custom recovery installed. It took me about 4 tries before I was able to get the custom recovery in my phone.
I previously did the rageagainstthecage method, and while it worked, at one point I stupidly took out the battery when it froze before I had put in a custom recovery and done a backup and I very nearly bricked my phone. It would not bootup after that no matter what. Fortunately I was able to boot into the Virgin Mobile recovery and start from scratch wiping and resetting my phone, but I had to re-download all my apps from the Market all over again which fortunately the Market kept a record of.
I used the first link for the kernel and I am very happy. Just take it slow, be careful, and follow the instructions exactly.
Rooting using ADB Tool Manual Method

Ok guys thanks for the advice however I have been having one problem:
I cannot seem to get the drivers installed successfully on my computer. It is windows vista x86. I have tried the easytether drivers and the samsung drivers but for some reason they don't work. Any ideas?
Hello, I am new to XDA as being a member. This is my first post, and I promise I have spent at least an hour looking for similar threads to no avail.
Now to explain my problem,
Last night I rooted my kindle again after the 6.3 update that destroyed my last root. I used the Kindle Fire utility 9.5 by Vashypoo, and selected install permanent root with superuser.
As I discovered after this, I needed to get team win recovery before getting 6.3, so the KFU installed it for me, and it backed up my data before continuing with the rest of the root. After it said complete, I booted up my kindle, to find a yellow triangle and in a couple seconds, i got sent to this page automatically that I know now is the team win main menu. Every time I boot up my kindle, I get sent to the team win main page. I saw on a video by Nat3mil that the reason this was happening was because my kindle was automatically booting in recovery, so I tried to use kindle's bootmode menu to change the bootmode back to normal (4000) whenever I try, I get a message saying "The system cannot find the drive specified", and it would stop doing anything. I tried to manually set the bootmode back to normal by using command lines from a forum here on xda, similar to my problem, HOWEVER, whenever I try to connect my kindle to the pc, 9 out of ten times, my computer doesnt even recognize my kindle is connected, and when it does, it installs software, KFU says adb is online, and STILL whenever I try using KFU, command lines, or the Kindle Unbrick utility, it says "waiting for device". I literally cannot do a thing without help.... So to sum up, my problem is that I cannot connect my kindle to the computer, and second, I don't know what else to try... I really need help, and I have been doing tons of research (over six hours) to no avail, or progress.
Thank you for your time, and I hope that someone can help me.
Read this guide. It will give you an idea of what your problem is and what you are doing wrong. Its lengthy but worth it if you want do much with your Kindle, like installing recovery.

your on the right path When you get it to say waiting for device hold the power button to shut the kindle off and then turn it back on and it will connect during boot up

You see, I already read this in my expansive research. It doesnt exactly help, My computer does not recognize my device. I have manually installed the driver multiple times, my problem is not ignorance... But the thread was a bit helpful with less knowledgeable people such as myself. I do however have MUCH more experience with a lot of this than I let on by my passage above. Thank you for answering, but do you know what to do in my case? This is not a repeated thread, because I have seen nothing like this on a previous thread

You have to get it to how you had it to say waiting for device... reinstall the drivers, reboot comp what ever you have to do than do what i posted... you can even open a command promp from the KFU tools folder by going to tools hold shift and right click... open command than type..
fastboot -i 0x1949 oem idme bootmode 4000
fastboot -i 0x1949 reboot
It happens randomly, You see, another problem I have been having is that, My kindle has no problem connecting to the computer, in device manager, I have adb interface up and running, my kindle connected, but it isnt useable, it says my adb is offline, and whenever that happens, I cannot do a thing... There is no tred whatsoever as to how to get adb working, as it happens at random tries of me installing the drivers, and restarting my comp/kindle, do you have any idea how to get it working? Thanks by the way, You literally are a lifesaver.

Hello.
I write to you because I have a big problem with mi LG G2 D802.
Yesterday I tried to install a CRM apk to use in a signature of the University. I was using CM11, but the apk had failed. So, I restored my ROM STOCK backup and when the phone start, a new update was downloaded and installed. Then, the phone only enter in recovery mode. I tried the different wipes, restore again ROM Stock, install again CM11 ROM but the problem was not solved.
I tried to enter in bootleader (pushing vol+ and insert the usb cable), but the phone reboot in recovery.
Now, I don´t know why, the phone is empty. I tried to restore ROM Stock backup from USB OTG but the recovery don´t recognizes the folders.
Please, can anybody help me? I need the pone!
Thanks.
Regards,
Nicolas.

Ok, so i made a rookie mistake and completely wiped my phone ready for a new install, without moving the files for the install across 1st. So now I cannot get the PC to recognise a device is plugged in to send across the cludyflexg3 rom files. I have twrp installed and can get to that with the power off/down combo on boot but this doesnt help a great deal without the files being accessible.
I can also load the updater with up and power but as the device was rooted this is picked up and it doesn't progress.
I tried IOroot and this doesnt seem to do anything either, window just closes when I hit enter. Any idea how I can flash across the rom somehow?
[as a quick update, IOroot will get to the point where it enables daemon but it just sits there waiting for the phone to respond, which it obviously won't. Is there anything I can do from within twrp to get a version of android installed? There are no recovery files I can find on the device after the wipe.
Is there really nothing I can do? I have now installed and set up adb. But my device doesnt show up with adb from any menu I use... (when using command line adb devices) and also when using adb usb command, I get "device not found"
Any help at all guys? this has been up 2 hours, I've always found this forum very helpful, but I really need my phone up and running asap as I use it for work, it is essential. Even the smallest bit of advice to at least get me to the next step would be really great. Thanks.
Could I possibly get a micro usb storage device, put the rom file on there and load it using twrp? If this is possible I may be without my phone a few days but at least it would work eventually.
Im sorry about the above posts, I tried to tidy the question and delete the previous posts but this isn't possible. Could an admin do this please, but I still need help with this issue. Please, anyone!

if adb is not working then a usb otg would be the solution, they are used to connect usb devices(mouse/keyboard/usb drives/etc) into our phones; here is a link for reference so you know what to look for

Cheers I'll see if the supermarket has them at a half reasonable price, otherwise ebay has them for £1 delivered and I'll have to wait. Thanks for the reply and confirmation that would work though.
