adb "error: device not found" with Haykuro builds

I tried installing the latest builds of Haykuro into my G1, they install fine however I lose adb I keep getting "error: device not found" when I revert to the latest JesusFreak build it starts working again just fine, any ideas why? Thank you in advance.

Sometimes adb.exe stay open in windows process close it reboot your phone and plug it again all is good.

did this fix it?
If not i updated to the new spl and got the new drivers and now adb works fine.

I am using Windows 7 64bit... I could get ADB working one time, and two mins later not at all.
I found this "tip" in a prior thread and I cannot remember who to credit (sorry).... but this worked for me last night without a problem....
When you reboot... hit F8, and scroll all the way down and disable Digital Driver Signing.
After I booted ADB was working great.

Thank you all
Thank you for all your responses I will try them tonight =]

Its in the driver package, just unzip it to C:\ then plug in your phone, go to device manager and look for Android Device, then install the driver from that folder on C:\
works for me and im on XP Laptop and an Vista Ultimate X64 Machine

Thanks for the response. I could've swore I've done that, but maybe I'll try it again.

ADB does not find device

Hi all,
I've searched the forums (honestly), but I can't find an answer to my problem.
I have a Vodafone branded 32B phone.
I installed the AndroidSDK as supposed to, added the path, made the phone root, booted into the recovery console using fastboot and flashed my phone with different operating systems... but during all this time I hever got ADB to work.
Whatever I do, adb never finds the phone. Fastboot works and finds it, when it's in fastboot mode, but ADB never. So, I can't permanently install the recovery console nor do any of the other funky stuff.
ADB doesn't work when the phone is in fastboot mode nor normally operating. I have USB Debugging turned on. The phone works normally and I can access the SDCard just fine.
Any help?

Suggestion.
Look into purchasing a G1 to be kept as a spare and used for development. That's what I've done with my G1. GParted is within most recovery images nowadays, therefore you can do most anything there, well...important functions that is. Keep that in mind.
You might need to uninstall the driver that recognizes your phone, then manually install the updated driver.

that's what i had to do to get it to recognise my phone.
i'm pretty sure the driver came with SDK. either way i've attached the one i used.
go into device manager and update the driver it's currently using with the attached one.

Incorrect driver.
It should be the 1st driver listed in the Android SDK file.
As far as I know, you could also choose to push ADB to your system32 file folder under the C: drive in your computer. That is if you're using a Windows machine.

just a thought
Are you on windows or linux? If you're in ubuntu try sudo adb ... the default unprivilaged user doesnt automatically have access to the device.
If you're in Windows I would uninstall the Android Phone device in device manager and reboot with the phone disconnected. Then connect it and install the usb driver from the sdk when prompted. Might also pay to download the sdk again.

Install HTC Sync
Another known way to fix the issue is to download and install HTC Sync http://www.htc.com/au/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=573&news_id=169
This seems to install the correct drivers

Hey Guys,
Forgot to mention I'm on Windows Vista 64 bits.
That last suggestion did the trick. I went to the site and downloaded the HTCDriverUpdate_Vista_64bits.exe, and within seconds I had an ADB connection.
Thanks for your help!

3 hours and no go, please help!

My nexus cannot be rooted because the adb drivers WON'T install.
I downloaded the sdk and installed the google usb drivers.
But, when my PC finds NEW hardware I point to the google usb drivers and I get the error CANNOT INSTALL HARDWARE. Running VISTA.
I have been reading and trying everything but I just cannot figure it out.
I finally said I will just have to post and HOPE you guys can give me a hand here.
Thanks.

BTW, Im on 2.1.3. Is that why perhaps I'm having issues?

try installing the drivers this way, i havent seen this not work for any android phone. install the free pdanet software from their site onto your computer http://junefabrics.com/android/ follow the instructions that they give you. it will install the proper drivers in a few minutes. btw, pdanet is a tethering program that works side by side with a android app, but you dont need it. you are just using it so that itll install the driver. good luck!
btw, you can get the answer here too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12657095&postcount=2

THANKS, GOT IT! Now when I type adb shell it works, BUT than I type SU and I get PERMISSION DENIED?
I just want some SIMPLE instruction and I don't find anything.

Btw, I cant get SUPERSUSER installed. I did go to the market and installed it that way and I can see it in the app drawer but now what?

You have to flash superuser.zip in recovery (install zip from sdcard then choose zip from sdcard and you have to choose your superuser.zip on your internal memory). BEFORE you have to mount /system in recovery.

Why for ****s sake are you so damn desperate.
It seems like you demand something.
And just flash a custom rom and you will have superuser

plug the phone, open a terminal as administrator/root and type
adb stop-server
adb start-server
adb devices
the last command must return your device name-id
If not there is smth wrong with your installation

The device didn't show up do you know what I could have done wrong? Do I have to turn on mass storage? Could it have something to do with my drivers, can't remember installing any... And in the device manager I see four android with a orange triangle with am exclamation mark inside.

No you don't need to enable mass storage, but you need to enable USB debugging from dev settings from the device. Use these drivers

After i choose the folder with the drivers i only get a message saying it didnt find any drivers. Do you know why i cant install them?

Is it the same drivers when I'm using aurora ics as gingerbread roms?

I had the same issue updating my Nexus 7 in adb download mode device not found. You will also notice in system setting device driver is showing an error. You can download Adb driver installer which should detect any missing driver and fix the issue.
It worked for me straight away otherwise I had no way round getting to solve the problem. Fheww!! hope it works for you
Many Thanks.

[Q] Can't install apks despite my device is NOT adb offline.

Ok I've been following every step some posts follow in order to upgrade every Android SDK component to the last version (adb, sdk manager, avd manager, usb driver, web driver and ALMOST EVERYTHING fetched in the sdk manager). I have my Nexus 4 on stock 4.2.2 (JDQ39) working like a charm with its USB driver with my PC, the debugging is on, also the unknown sources option (if any), the phone is properly linked with the "adb fingerprint protection" thing (can't remember the correct name), and last I can see my Nexus 4 detected on adb devices command AND STILL I can't install a sole apk, in this case I'm using Android Commander 0.7.9.11 and nothing, I've tried with Droid Explorer or even Moborobo and nothing.
However in my cousin's laptop I can successfully install apps.
I thought it must be something wrong or corrupted with my OS, so I reinstalled Windows 8 (x64) and take care about all the drivers and everything mentioned above and still... I get the same, so I'm running desperate here.
Maybe it's something simple, I just need someone to help me.
Sorry if I writed so much... I only did it to avoid Android's ABC related questions.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Best regards.
