Hi!
If you're here, Windows 10 got in your way. Let me explain why.
You see, Windows 10, for some reason has an administrator permission... No, not that administrator permission. Because reasons, Windows 10 has TWO admin permissions! You are the standard one. The superior one is hidden, as a separate user! I don't get it either.
There's a command prompt that unlocks the primary admin account. A quick Google search will yield multiple guides on this matter.
Many, if not all your problems will be solved via this account. I spent 3 hours trying to install some drivers, before I was dumbstruck by the "God Account"... Install everything through that, and use your account normally!
I recommend hiding God in your PC after, since it has total power and some clever virus software might simply hijack it to install itself in the depths of your system, where no antivirus has permission to touch it...
God account on Windows 10 - Cause We hate You! Now, buy a subscription for solitaire!!
Windows 10 if f**k**g $hit.....
Previously I spent days trying to get drivers/ADB working. Impossible. I then used my spare laptop having Windows 8.1, effortless and no issue, the whole process of unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery and SuperSU was instant.
It was not possible with Windows 10 but with Windows 8.1 it was so easy and no issues with drivers or software. Windows 10 is cancer.

It's possible that you guys just had previous drivers installed that were conflicting. I doubt it's Windows 10, as mine connected easily and quickly. Some phone drivers tend to stay in your system eventhough you might not clearly see them. I also used the 15 seconds ADB installer, for what it's worth. Maybe you guys should try that.

Even when trying the 15 second ADB installer, made no difference...
For this very reason, I upgraded my PC from Windows 10 to Windows 8.1, couldn't of been any happier.
I second the adb installer. It's easy, although the topic is more related to drivers that are outright rejected by the system. Sometimes, it's the fault of the certificate, or the lack of~. If there were old drivers, the device would've been recognised, and not treated as an "unknown device". I was livid when my Nexus 7 wouldn't work. XP It's basically a method of avoiding possible bugs or certificate issues. Again, you're correct in suggesting the adb installer! It takes the faff out of the job!

I dunno. I would start with a clean install of Windows 10, cause , to my surprise, it's different than the upgraded version! It's utter madness. The clean one is more stable, faster, less glitchy, AND DOESN'T BREAK MY WoL SETUP AFTER EVERY F...UPDATE!!!... I'm not mad... ?

I have a clean install of Win 10 also. Maybe that's why I didn't have connection/driver issues. Reason I mentioned old drivers being hidden was because that's exactly what happened to me with a Nexus 6 before doing a clean install. My computer wouldn't recognize it also, and it just kept showing unknown device. I had old Samsung and ZTE drivers still hiding in my system, and the only way I found them was when I used this Nexus tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
Hii to all having issues with windows and android..
One thing
I have already the fall creators update before it is even released ( Oktober 17 it will be official )
Love to use windows and usually do not have trouble with android and Windows
The thing is, if you need the extra administrative privilege you need to go under
Settings then
recovery then
advanced then
restart the system for advanced options
And then choose for some drivers like adb fastboot and other stuff.. choose some opitons
You will be given like options from 1 to 9 or 10..
then you press the number 7
Number 7 means you will remove the extra driver signature the windows is asking for every driver
After pressing 7 the system will reboot..
then you need to reinstall the adb fastboot drivers
Now it will give you a window with red color .. asking you.. do you want to install this driver without the signature that is usually required..
and then you click on yes..
from that point on you will allways have that driver installed and
working in the way it should or let me say in the way every driver works after you install it..
And yes it is trouble sometimes to get adb and other android stuff working on windows 10
couse it sometimes is the way that you have all the correct files and did all the correct steps
But the thing is it is not working couse windows 10 is in that point not letting you to do that thing
couse it things its harmfull for you system or sometimes you just need to put one setting off or on
and Voillaa everything is working..
So do not give up on things try to google out the solution by the error or you tube is having
often some good tutorials on what and how it needs to be done in windows 10

Hello,
I've been googling around for a workaround but I cannot seem to find one that actually works. The problem is, when I try to connect my phone to the PC and, for example, want to flash it with an official rom - it simply cannot find it. It can find the SD card when I mount it.
When I put it in, Windows attempts to install a few drivers but fails at the ADB. According to several sites, I can just use the one from HTC Sync or from the Android SDK. It installs fine but it still doesn't seem to be able to contact my phone. I cannot sync it either.
Anyone got an idea? I seem to be on my last nerve.
I dont have any problems here. What windows beta release do you use?
Final version. Released today. It's Windows 7 Professional.
First, set the phone to debugg mode...
Ok here we go (at least it works for me)...
1.- Remove the drivers actuaslly installed (it might get tricky, as I don't know exactly how to remove the registry keys)
2.- Once you have cleaned windows from the drivers, connect the phone to the computer and let it recognize everything (Probably it would not recognize the ADB drviers, so far we are good)
3.- After the drivers are installed, go and check in control panel/Devices Administration (or something like that... I have Windows in spanish so I don't know exactly how is called on english... By the way, sorry if my english sound a little bit weird =P..)
4.- Here you should see probably a device as "not recognized" or what ever is called... Here is the part where you need to select the driver manually.
5.- Check the phone driver folder (you should have it, if you don't get them)
6.- When you see the different options, select the one called HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface
7.- You are done =D...
I hope I made it clear enough for you...
If you have any doubt, add me to MSN xnofrostx - hotmail.com (I don't put the @ because I hate spam xD so you should add only the xnofrostx =P...
Hope you can get it to work...
I couldn't, for the life of me, get it to work so I put Windows XP on a vmware and flashed it through there. Works wonders.
Sorry for not being able to help.
I run Windows 7 Evaluation copy. I have had no problems. In fact there was nothing for me to set up, it just saw it on first attempt.

LOL, Windows 7 is a damn nice release and a lot faster than both xp and vista compared to the hardware available at the moment off release.
i am also using windows 7 beta and final
no issues at all. and i also think, that win7 is really good piece of software. far superious to win xp
Hey all, this is just to let you know some stuff right quick pertaining to Windows 7.
I've upgraded from Vista to 7, and so far everything works pretty much the way it used to, with a few exceptions.
1-Ivan's kitchen HAS to be run as administrator NO MATTER WHAT in order for the ROM to be built. If you just run it as a user it will error out on you near the end of the building process. Im not sure what error it is, because on my system it simply closes and Windows comes up with a dialog about it encountered an illegal error. This was not present in Vista for me at least, I hope it helps.
2-RUU's work in much the same way they did on XP and Vista. Nothing needs to be done in order to run them and successfully flash a ROM that we haven't been doing already. Just connect your phone, double click and flash.
3-HardSPL now requires one more step. If you are using the new Microsoft Security Essentials anti-virus suite, it will detect the HardSPL files as a trojan for whatever reason. You need to simply disable this program before you download the package in order for HardSPL to work. Nothing else is required.
Basically what I am trying to say is that if anyone out there has been holding off from upgrading to Windows 7 in fear that you won't be able to flash or cook or whatever, that I believe all is well. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate X64, and i've had no more problems then what I have listed here.
I hope this helps someone, and if you guys have any 7 related questions, please feel free to ask!

Been using the beta for some time now and the kitchen has been running well for me.
Seems strange...it may just be me then...but I thought that I would share my experiences so that people wouldn't be afraid to upgrade. I was browsing the Wizard forums yesterday...and people are freaking out about it "breaking" crap, when all they need to do it read for a second and most of the time run as admin to make it work:/
Hi all,
It's been a while, but I am back with HD2. I have a problem. I have win7 business on all off my computers, I instaled latest activesync, but I keep getting error connection. When installing drivers, I get the unknown device, so instalation failed.
Not even bluetooth recognition works.
Any suggestions, please?

If you are using Windows 7 Business, I would guess you mean you are using Windows Mobile Device Center, yes? In Windows Device Manager are you set up to automatically download drivers? Are you getting any errors in the Sync Center? There is a lot of information you have to supply before anyone can troubleshoot the problem you are having.
There are a lot of steps you can take, most of which you can find by doing a search of XDA. If that fails, then come back with a more detailed explanation of what you have done, and people will try to help troubleshoot for you.
Thanks for looking,
and yes I have been searching a lot for information allready before I made a new thread.
I have win7 business and yes it does download drivers automaticly.
I will try and search for manual driver setup, but would be very thankful if any of you could give me some hints.

In Device Manager you can click on Portable Devices and see if you see your HD2 there, if you do, then right click on it. You can find options to manually install drivers. If that does not work, in the Mobile Device Center you can configure how the center is supposed to connect to your HD2. Have you tried that yet? Also, make sure you are not using a USB hub for connections. You can try changing USB ports to try to reinstall drivers.
I am trying hard, this is the error I get:
P.S.: in activesync all options are on, so no problems there, but I have tried all of them.
In that case, try uninstalling the device in Device Manager, and starting over again. It does seem to be a driver problem. Another trick you can try is on the HD2, under Settings, USB to PC, try unticking Enable advanced network functionality, and then try to reinstall the drivers.
Another thing you can try is deleting the partnership in Windows Mobile Device Center and creating a new partnership.
Is there a wa I could find the driver somewhere and install it myself?
Not beeing able to find the right one...

In the Leo ROM forum the thread on MTTY has some Windows 7 drivers you can download I believe, but that will take awhile.
Are you using Win7 32 or 64 bit?
win7 32 bit. I tried to download them through windows update, but I got an error as well.
So I am on a quest for drivers....

If you are familiar with computers, you can try this with Win7 drivers you download for HD2.
You did try uninstalling your device in Device Manager, and trying another USB port to install it on? It seems really odd that Win7 is not finding the right drivers for you, and that persists even after you uninstall and reinstall the device.
No luck so far, any more ideas?
Update:
I tried the same thing on another laptop, same specs, same win7 business, worked like a charm.
So must be this win7 problem I think. Any ideas what to do? I can't remove mobile device center, so I could try and reinstall it. The icons stay in my control panel.
Anybody?
I just can't imagine this is only happening to me.

Did you have any luck yet in solving the problem?
Nope my dear helper,
I found out this is windows7 problem. I still get the first error can't install device driver, because the device is not installed on the computer.
Something must be wrong, but I was getting a head, network driver installed fine, windows mobile device program runs fine, I made a clean install with register delete etc...
I just can' seem to find this to work.
i had some problem the first time i plugged my HD2 on win7 64 ultim.
nothing happened, no activesync, no nothing...
i opened sync center, nothing...
windows updates found me windows mobile device center with upgrade devices, the thing installed but all still worked bad, impossible to activesync, no driver for my HD2, and i know nothing about phones and windows, it's my first windows mobile.
so after hours of fighting, i decided to DL the app windows mobile device center on microsoft download website, then i installed the thing and oh miracle, my HD2 was detected, the app Win M D Center was asking me now with the pic of my hd2 in the prog to chose between settings as the first thing installed by windows update always froze at win mob device center splash screen...
i resume here but it took me the all afternoon to finally resolve this problem.
something went wrong with windows update install and to reinstall the all app was the easy way to fix the activesync problem.
If you did already re-download Windows Mobile Device Center and that did not work on the one recalcitrant computer, maybe you might need to update your BIOS or download the latest drivers for you motherboard. Sometimes problems can crop up if the computer does not have the most updated BIOS and motherboard drivers. How old is the computer you are using?
Well, after calling microsoft support and HTC support and doing for 36 hours nothing but trying I finally reinstalled my hole system. So new clean install of windows 7 business and it works like acharm. Where did it went wrong, I don't know, there had to be some register issue I think. Windows mobile center worked ok, the connection with the phone worked, but just not recognizing the device. Well I would of done the instalation sooner, If I knew this one is gonna be so hard to do.

Well, glad you finally solved your problem, and that this time the blame was not just placed on HTC or the Leo. Sad though that you had to go through so much to get the darn thing to work. I just installed a new operating system for my neighbor, and there is still more work to do on it. Not a fun thing to do.
Hi all,
I just installed a fresh copy of win7 ultimate on my HTC shift and installed all drivers because the old install was getting sluggish. Everything works except for two things: interpolated high resolution gives a blue screen crash when aero is active (no transparency) and the windows basic theme is UGLY. And the second problem: after I install like 85 windows updates shag control center crashes and have to restore a system recovery point. Do you know what update causes this so i can hide it and install the rest?
Many thanks,
Pelle

Which drivers did you use? I hope you are not using the Windows Vista drivers. Download the Shift Windows 7 drivers from this link http://azsharing.com/yvex8pwmz01j/SHIFT.zip.html. Install the Windows 7 drivers discussed in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=590009. The sequence of installing them is precise including those that you need to install in Vista Compatibility mode and with Admin Privilleges. As the OP stated some of the drivers will be installed through Windows update but check which ones. Follow the recomendations in that thread and all will work like a charm...
I believe your Shag Control problems and all display problems are related to the drivers and not Windows update. Mine is on automatic updates and I have not excluded any updates at all save for the Language Pack that I do not need....
Re-install the drivers and lets see what happens after that. By the way DO NOT ENABLE AERO BEFORE INSTALLING THE GRAPHICS DRIVERS otherwise you get BSOD....... That advice is shown as Important in the thread mentioned above. Enable aero theme as the last thing you do with all drivers installed to avoid any problems.
I hope you get sorted and enjoy your Shift with Windows 7......
Edit>>>> There is a way to disable Aero when facing your current BSOd situation through Screen Resolution Settings but I dont remember the precise steps. I can retrace the steps on my Shift once I get to it after work and see whether that will help you. But let me know whether re-installing the drivers will have sorted you out>>>>>
Hello,
I used the driver sequence at gadgetmix (sorry, i can't post links yet) because it worked fine a year ago and the drivers from the HTC website in vista compatibility mode and run as administrator.
With reinstalling do you mean that I have to uninstall the old driver and install the new one or can i just install the new driver over the older one?
Thanks
Pelle
EDIT: had aero off the entire installation

Best is to uninstall and then install afresh using Windows 7 drivers..... Perhaps even check box to delete the old driver as well. If Aero was off during installation you dont have many problems. Aero on during 7 upgrade especially before graphics driver update causes Bsod or boot loop.
You should be ok when you install the windows 7 drivers. But the sequence of driver installations is important.... All the best
Have been fiddeling with the drivers for a while now and given up. just started Windows 7 setup again. After that i will use the windows 7! drivers and hope for the best.

EDIT: windows just installed. Turning off Aero and starting drivers... Fingers crossed
Drivers just finised and now the sond doesn't work
Tried rolling back/ updating driver, reinstalling driver muting unmuting in windows and shift control center but no luck...
And when I press the resolution changer I have to reboot to switch resolution.
shift control center has to be selected from start menu to start
This is a lot worse than when i did it using the tutorial at gadgetmix
Any idea how to fix this?

Sorry to hear about the problems you are facing. I am surprised coz I did the Windows 7 installation just a few weeks ago after reviving my dead Shift and everything is working perfectly for me. The only thing I havent fully sorted out is Finger print thing but I know I only need an hour or 2 with it and all will be well.
Incidentally did you do a clean install of 7 or you upgraded Vista?
Since you have just done a fresh install and you dont stand to lose much I would advise that you re-install Vista (F3) which will install all the drivers then Upgrade Windows 7 from the freshly re-installed Vista. You can then install drivers for any device that will show not to be installed after 7 upgrade.... Of course following the sequence and allowing Windows Update to take care of the rest.

The problem is that i once had to replace my HDD because some idiot dropped my shift and for some reason the accelerometer didn't kick in and trashed my hard drive. So pressing F3 won't do anything. Are there any other solutions?
DID IT! It was in my windows 7 install disk. Downloaded and burnt one (it should be legal because I have paid for it) installed, installed drivers an BOOM! everything works! aero, HiRes in aero sound, its nice and responsive battery life on power saver 2H and 45 minutes, havn't tested modem yet as my sim card is in my smartphone but will do that. Thanks a lot for all of your help! I will be hanin round here to help others. I AM SO HAPPY EVERYTHING IS FINE WITH MY LOVELY SHIFT! Updates Sucseeded and everything works perfect!
Only one more question: is it safe to install sp1? Or will that give problems with some of the drivers.

Glad you finally managed to get your Shift up to speed. I always felt that your peculiar issue boiled down to bad install which is confirmed by the first software you used. What type of disk did you use for the Hdd replacement - Hdd or SSd and for what capacity. Been thinking of upgrading but Ssd costs are still up there in teh skies and might not justify upgrading for the ageing Shift....
You can update to Service Pack 1 no problem. I have it and no issues at all.

I actually have the same issue although mine started prior to my upgrade to Windows 8 and I actually made no changes to the phone. If I do a fresh restart on the phone and computer I can get it to ADB Reboot but then from that point on its the same "device wasn't found". Anyone have ideas?

Me, facing this problem too...
But I have a solution:
Install Windows 7 again, multiboot if you like to keep the metro style...
Windows 8 just have many problems at all...
Many apps and games won't launch or sometimes won't launch (you need to restart to play it) like Half-Life.
So, I suggest you to use Windows 7 because it's easier to use and has higher performance compared to the new W8.
