Two quick questions; any help is much appreciated. As a newbie I am unable to get adb to detect my device; running 'adb devices' always yields an empty list under Windows 7. Searching different threads lead me to the recommendation to uninstall the mass storage device driver with USBdeview and then reinstall with the android usb driver (which is said to be under tools in the SDK); however, I can't find the driver file anywhere., nor is there an USB available package in the SDK. If someone could point me in the correct direction regarding how to run adb I'd be much appreciative; I have the SDK installed and the adb daemon appears to be running.
A quick second question is if I can get the device to be detected under adb, can mass storage driver and the android driver run simultaneously? Thanks again.

i downloaded "pda net " to my windows 7 64 bit pc when i was having the same usb issue, it then recognized my adb device(of course you have to uninstall the drivers that windows assigned to it first)... question 2 is yes!

You can always try Wireless ADB:

You mentioned that you had to first uninstall the drivers that Windows assigned to it first.
Would you please share how you went about doing that? I've been stuck on this part (adb not recognizing my device) for quite a while now and can't seem to get past it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks much for the replies.....
Thanks. I tried each one but only the pad net worked. Regarding the second reply, there was no usb_driver folder in my Android SDK folder. I downloaded the inf file anyway but when I pointed to it during installation it gave me a 'file not found' error although it recognized the driver. PDA net worked fine. The adb wireless widget connected to my PC but the list of devices remained blank.
Thanks again for l the suggestions; perhaps as I become more knowledgeable I'll appreciate why the first and third suggestions didn't work, but I really appreciate your willingness to help.

The reason you had no usb driver folder is because the android sdk was not fully setup. You need to run the sdk setup file in the android sdk folder first and download the rest of it. There are a bunch of different packages available. Follow the prompts.
To connect by wifi you need to use one of the adb wifi widgets on your tablet. When it is ready it should give you an address to connect to.
Then on your pc from a command line change the directory to your tools folder in the android sdk. Then type adb connect "address from adb wifi widget" and hit enter. Should then connect.

Thanks again! The wireless adb directions worked, although I should note that adb.exe is in the "platform-tools" folder and most references suggest it should be in the "tools" folder.
I thought I had installed the SDK correctly using the .exe file but, after downloading a number of packages, no USB package was available. After seeing your post I uninstalled, downloaded the zip version, ran android.bat update SDK and it again installed available packages but no USB; these included Android SDK tools, rev 8, SDK Platform tools, rev 1, documentation for SDK API 9, SDK Platform for vers 1.5 - 2.3, and several sample packages. Under 'Available packages' no USB package is listed, and there no .inf file in any of the installed directories.
Any thoughts? Could the inf file be located somewhere else?

I have seen the same thing with the locations. I just copied the files in the platform-tools folder to the tools folder. Send me a pm with your email and i will send my USB folder if you want.
Hi. I 'figured' it out (if it could be called that). rather than click on 'update all' in SDK manager, I selected Android SDK tools, then clicked 'update all' which gave me a series of archives options, one of which included the USB package. This was very non-intuitive but worked.
Thanks!
Cool.. Don't forget to use the modded info file.

I just got the Asus tf300t and it is not rooted or anything. When I plug in the USB cable I get the USB not recongized which I know i have the right drives installed.
So I cant do fastboot or adb because of the usb not working. Just bought another cable and still the same thing. Tried on 2 other computers and no change.
Not sure if the port on tablet is bad or if its a software issue. Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks
Update:
So its not the cable. Still getting Unknown Device on 3 of my computers. All running windows 7. Tried installing the drives multiple times and it wont install them. I use this computer for all my android devices so i know i have all the drives and things installed. Not sure what to do.
Im going to order another cable and see if that changes/fixes anything.

Odp: Broken Fastboot/USB not Recongized
You have to enable USB Debuging in Developer Settings to ADB works. Fastboot works only on unlocked bootloaders.

Yes I have the Android SDK and java SDK. All my computers have it installed, I do all my unlocking and rooting of phones on them. No the PC does not even recognize the tablet as a USB mass storage. Thats the bad part
I have tried going into device manager and tell it where to find the drivers but it wont work like it has in the past. Does it on all my computers so something must be wrong with the device. Just not sure what. really sucks.
Also it shows up as unknown device so thats a bit different then other android devices that needed drivers installed manually

If you have got a problem with your adb or fastboot or recovery....it's very simply and faster
use this:
Download this file "fastboot.zip"
Install this file somewhere in one folder which is named "fastboot" on your PC
=> disk C: root

Hi Linuxxxx
Could you please tell me where can I download ADB and Fastboot from?
Cheers
I have a problem, I installed minimal ADB and fastboot in C:\Program Files (x86)\minimal ADB and Fastboot, they are working.
I downloaded the XiaomiTool for windows, extracted it in download folder, I can launch it but when I try to flash a recovery it tells me that ADB and Fastboot are not recognized as internal or exteral command.
Should I put XiaomiTool in the ADB folder? How to boot in fastboot mod (power +vol up or power + vol down bring me to CWM)? Should I boot in fastboot mod to use XiaomiTool?

I think you forgot to mention that this is only for Windows. So it does not work for Linux or Mac.
Quick, fast, no frills, just the necessary files itself. Hopefully this thread gets updated whenever a new release comes up
thanks, nice share bro :good:
how to use those files
I thank you for the files but... how are we supposed to use them. I ask since I'm new to adb. And need this vision of adb to sideload to my fire hd6

open a command window and change directory to the folder where adb.exe is installed. Then you can use adb commands. Commands syntax is as follow:
Code:
adb [target] <command>
You only need to specify the [target] if you have more than 1 android device or emulator connected simultaneously, otherwise the command will be directed to the only connected device, so the syntax will be:
Code:
adb <command>
So if you want to sideload a rom to your device, boot in your custom recovery and start the "sideload" mode.
In the command window:
Code:
adb sideload my_rom.zip
Don't forget that the rom.zip must be in the same folder where adb.exe is
If you want to use "adb push" instead of "adb sideload" then boot in custom recovery (not in sideload mode) and use the following command:
Code:
adb push my_rom.zip /sdcard
You can read more about adb commands here: http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html#issuingcommands
adb sideload explained here: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.in/2013/12/ow-to-use-adb-sideload.html
If you have more question about what file to sideload or push a rom to your device, you should ask in the correct forum, Amazon Fire HD 6 forum is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd
thank u

go to this website: https://fl1.androidfilehost.com/dl/...803384/minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup.exe?
download and install it to your computer, then try to sideload it through there.
if that doesn't work just download the stand alone SDK from the android studio website and after its downloaded, open the .rar file and extract it to a new folder to your desktop. after that open it and search for a folder that says platform tools and look for the ADB .exe file and copy it, then go to your C drive and go to programs and try to find the android studio folder, when you have located it open it and look for a folder named platform tools, then delete the adb.exe in that folder and paste the new one in there or you can probably just copy the whole platform tools folder and replace the other one in the C drive.
I hope this helps, if it doesnt just message me and im sorry for the late reply.

this usually means the phone is not communicating with your PC.
- either your phone is corrupt
- the connection is corrupt
- or the cable is bad
Tip: add the path of ADB.exe to your system Environment Variables, so you can call it w/out first navigating to it.
- Right click Computer > Properties > Advanced system settings
- Environment Variables ... > edit "Path" by adding the path to ADB.exe.
ie.
Windows 10 x64, i simply add: D:\PortableApps\ADB
for other Windows, you may have to add to the end of "Path", click edit > scroll to the end > add ;D:\PortableApps\ADB;
(don't forget to add the semicolon at the end)
Now you can simply launch Command Prompt and enter: ADB sideload *file*
Updated ADB and Fastboot from Androiod SDK (Pkg.Revision=24.0) dd 11/07/2016
ADB - version 1.0.36
Revision fd9e4d07b0f5-android

Not working on Android 6.0
This and older versions will not work on Samsung S7E for system backup and restore.
It accepts the commands, but the confirmation popup supposed to open on the device never does. For a few 6.0 users on other devices, it opened up but the backups were not really completed.

•the whole UI (including file explorer and information panels) now is totally revamped to Windows Look and feel, now You can say it's beautiful.
•now every mode (adb, fastboot, your own command) has it's output color.
in Errors and Exception:
•now all exceptions are more detailed, to guide you and me to the problem.
in supported commands
•renamed all commands in the list to what they really are to avoid confusion and complexity.
•added :
adb
adb kill-server
fastboot
•changed :
adb devices to adb devices -l
fastboot devices to fastboot devices -l
•removed :
unlock password 2nd method to avoid confusion and complexity.
in output :
•you can save the output using "save output" in "options" menu.
•fixed some output issues.
in code :
•I've changed some algorithms > hmmm, the app size now is 30 kbs lol.

Version 5.0 [initial release] [12/07/2016] :
Code:
the tool now is much more stable and smart, renamed to SADB [Simple ADB]
in how the tool is working:
as I said I've rewrittten the whole code:
•now we have an output area, no files or any leftover data files at all, it's just the tool
•now the tool is executing the commands in really different and cleaner/faster way
•added the Abort button, to abort currently running operations
•added "Your own command" mode [experimental]
•the tool size is 27 kbs
in Errors and Exception:
•all exceptions and errors are caught and handled i believe
•the tool now can determine whatever the output is an error or not
in UI :
•now you can choose from adb, fastboot by radio buttons, instead of this large comboBox
•removed most of the annoying dialog panes
•the overall UI is certainly better and smoother

Code:
In the future, I might make other changes and fixes,
but they may not be that big to include in separate updates,
so, if you're interested in the latest releases,
feel free to compile the code yourself.
In Debian, there are "android tools" packages and adb and fastboot are simply there. Otherwise, the executable may come with any of Android API packages.
So this runs on Linux. Install adb does nothing. Own command has no command input to use. Need a on-phone file-browser for file to pull. Need option to save logcat to a file. Small things.
I run adb CLI without much ado.

Thanks for the help, I'll check.
Edit: own command, intended to allow users to write their command in the same red area, But I'll check, and yes save logcat into file is coming.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
one year & half ago I've created this tool, the main idea was not new, it has been implemented so many times, but I believe that majority of implementations has just covered the most basic and direct commands of ADB/Fastboot,
So, this revive shall FIX WHATEVER PROBLEM YOU FACED WITH THE OLD TOOL. make sure to check the changelog [2nd post].
INSTALLATION :
(make sure you have java installed on your PC)
• first you have to install ADB Installer tool, it will install ADB to your System directly, so no need for any additional files (make sure to give @Snoop05 a Thanks :good .
• then run Simple ADB.jar and that's it!
GUIDE :
• select from "ADB", "Fastboot" or "Your own command" buttons :
- if "ADB" is selected the combobox will contain lots of adb commands :
Check if Device connected properly (adb devices).
Android Logcat.
Install a specific APK file(Android Application).
Uninstall apk <package> .
pull a file from your Android Device to your PC.
push a file from your PC to your Android Device.
View tasks running in your Android device.
Check your Android Device Memory usage.
Check your Android Device storage usage.
Kill all background processes.
Normal Reboot.
Reboot to recovery mode
Reboot to download mode (for Samsung Devices).
Reboot to bootloader mode.
Unlock Patterns/passwords [first method]
Unlock Patterns/passwords [formatting phone method]
- if "Fastboot" is selected the combobox will contain lots of Fastboot commands :
Reboot to Fastboot mode.
Flash Update.zip.
Flash recovery.img.
Flash boot.img.
Wipe (System,data & cache) before restoring nandroid backup.
Flash system.img.
Flash data.img.
Flash cache.img.
- if "Your own command" is selected the combobox will be disabled , and you can write your (still one line) command in the red area.
• Hit Activate to (well, activate the command :cyclops: ).
• Hit Abort to stop the currently running operation ( please think twice before aborting a command).
• You have the Options menu that contains :
-Donate : to support my development and studying (first year college :cyclops: )
- Main thread : to visit this thread.
- ADB Installer : to visit ADB Installer thread.
- Reset : to set the frame as you first opened it.
COMPATIBILITY:
windows (till now)
•the first issue preventing it from being compatible with other OS's is that the way java is executing commands, it's tricky to keep the same simple functionality with the mass compatibility, so i'm still working on that.
•also in other OS's you need to install adb system-wide, and i didn't find any adb-installer-like tool for Linux or Mac os.
I hope i'll get help from the community
Code:
*** Disclaimer
there are some commands I've never tested (like password commands),
because I don't have a spare phone to test on, please use the tool at your own risk.

This seems like a really nice tool to users new to ADB, nice work man!
FYI, there is an Ubuntu package called android-tools-adb that includes ADB & Fastboot.
It also appears to be in Debian repositories, so it likely works with all Debian derivatives.
I'd be happy to help test your linux based tool if/when you get to that point.
I'm no programmer, but i've been running all linux at home for a couple years, so I might have some good ideas :highfive:

thanks, that would be great help for sure.
Just ran it in Ubuntu 14.04 with:
Code:
java -jar Simple_ADB.jar
Please change "adb devices" to "adb devices -l" (lowercase L). Longer output with board name.

Does everything work fine? Thanks for testing!
I only tried adb devices and logcat so far. -l is just a feature request.
More features I miss
Code:
fastboot devices -l
fastboot reboot

@ranf fastboot reboot does exists: reboot to fastboot mode
Thanks, I'll change it, and thanks for testing, feel free to test other commands

What about starting now, it would be helpful if you tested it now, it seems working, although I don't really know (why) lol

fastboot knows 2 reboots:
- reboot reboot device normally
- reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader

Oh I see, it's found under adb commands as reboot to bootloader, maybe I'll move it to fastboot to avoid confusion.
Great! I love it.
Will you add more commands?

I'm open for suggestions
Also, that's why I've implemented "Your own command" option.
@Mohamed Hashem i belive i can tweak the UI to get close to the window's metro ui which is attractive, stunning and simple if you make it's source open. It's already a good program. And with some furnishings on the UI, it can be the de facto adb for a few years. What say?

well, after seeing the initial poll answers, I think I'm taking the Open-source option seriously so whenever I publish it, You're free to do so
Also, I'm about to take a look at JavaFx to polish the ui, thus, We will have multiple good user interfaces, and this is definitely always better

I know about JavaFX and CSS stuff quite well from my self learning of 1 and a half years. I have some good metro like stylesheets ready to go with built in accent and base theme changing support. I look forward to the aforementioned happening.

I indeed ran it under linux, usual java -jar ....was able to exercise adb commands as I describe.
Will always get io-exceptions when hitting abort.
Other exceptions may be due to the Process.start()

Till now I've been using java's regular Process.start() method, It's for Windows only,
Thanks for the help, I'll check.
Edit: own command, intended to allow users to write their command in the same red area, But I'll check, and yes save logcat into file is coming.

You can run it right now as described!

Actually I think that IOExeption comes from start()
did you face other exceptions?
Besides Abort, does executing commands actually work?

The described solves the second problem (adb installation) but the second problem still needs testing\investigation
Thanks for testing and information
