Hello,
I am having problems with adb recognition on recovery mode. I did manage to contact codeworkx, but it seems it's just me, because for him it's working. The drivers are installed correctly, because adb sideload works just fine. I want to use the new adb backup function, to backup files right into my PC, but no recognition is stopping me. Has anyone ever had this problem? If so, any ideas on how to fix it are really welcome. Thanks in advance!
adb backup isn't particularly useful because it doesn't backup stuff like SMS.
By recovery, do you mean fastboot mode? And only the adb command doesn't work? That's strange. Have you tried switching the cable or trying a different PC? What error are you getting?

Hello, I understand that it doesn't backup things like sms, I just need the system, data, and boot backed up directly to my PC. By recovery I mean recovery and not fastboot. The adb command works, the device is just not showing up in adb devices, that's why I can't do adb backups, although this feature was implemented in TWRP a couple versions back. What's strange that when I try using adb sideload, the device is detected perfectly fine, which means not a driver problem.
Leaving a picture. First adb devices ran when in main recovery screen, second adb devices ran when in adb sideload mode. (Detected!)

That's not recovery, that's simply adb.
Are you sure you're using the correct command? Read this: https://9to5google.com/2017/11/04/how-to-backup-restore-android-device-data-android-basics/
I just tried using adb backup with my device and it works fine. You're supposed to do it from within actual ROM itself, not TWRP. So boot into your ROM and try again.

So for the first time I've set up my ADB since I will getting a MT3G tomorrow. Environment variables (PATH) set correctly, etc.
When I type adb shell in recovery model, it says *daemon not running. starting it now, daemon started successfully, error: device not found*
"Android Compsite ADB Interface" shows up in my USB devices. So what's the problem.
Then when I load up "emulator -data c:\", it starts up and gives me this error. msvcrt.dll? I've dealt with that .dll file before for other apps and it is in my system32 folder.
So what's going on here.

try reinstalling the usb driver.
mine identifies as HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface.
did you install the usb driver that comes in the SDK?
what if you navigate to the location you have the sdk installed? does it work then? maybe the path is not set up as correct as you think? (i had this problem when trying to do fastboot. everything else worked fine except for fastboot. to get that working i had to navigate to the sdk directory.)
I sure did, and it reads exactly that.
Even adb devices doesn't bring a device up. Or adb remount.
Other thing is under Hard Drives Tree, the HTC Android USB Phone Device has a Microsoft driver. I tried to install drivers from the android/usb_driver/ and nothing. Do I have to do this in the Home Screen for the first time so it brings up the permission screen where I click on "Allow Always" for root? Cause I'm not getting that there, so I rebooted into recovery....nothing there as well.
i did have an issue recently where i couldn't get the usb driver to change over.
what i had to do to get it to change was disable and then re-enable usb debugging while the phone was connected to the computer.
it triggers a hardware change in windows and this allowed me to reinstall the correct driver.
uninstalling the current drivers might also help.
I've tried both things.
Same issue.
What Windows Services need to be enabled in order to get ADB to work? I did some tweaking of the services.msc for XP. I think that might be the reason adb shell isn't working.
Same problem I have:
I have TWO rooted G1s, Cyanogen 4.0.4 modified devices with identical Software releases.
The one (rooted by the Golcard Method) is recognized by ADB - the other one (rooted by the One Click Method) is not.
Troubled !
Oh Sorry -this is a Sapphire forum ... I apologize
Hi Folks,
I am running Mac OS X 10.8.2 and I have ran into the following issues. I am trying to root a friend's Nexus 4 that's on 4.2.2, unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled/on.
I can easily root this on my Windows desktop but I thought I'd try out the Mac. Do note that I am not getting the "Allow USB Debugging" message that pops up on the phone when you connect it to a computer normally and you select Allow for the respective RSA key. The one that shows up after 4.2.2 is updated from 4.2.1.
I am not getting the above prompt when hooking up the phone to my Mac. *PS I removed the name of my MBP pro and the user name.
Okay so here are the two issues/scenarios:
1) I downloaded the latest ADB and Fastboot Mac OS X 64 bit files from the ADB dev tools website, etc. The files are "adb" and "fastboot"
When I type "./adb devices" since the "./" command is for Mac on the terminal, I get the following message and it does not show up any device listed.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then when I type "./adb reboot-bootloader", I get the following:
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2) When I use an older adb and fastboot files from last year: "./adb_Mac" , "./fastboot_Mac" and "ADB-Install-Mac.sh", I get the following:
When I type in the adb devices command and the adb reboot-bootloader command:
The serial # shows up this time (Again I have crossed out half of it lol)
When typing in the reboot-bootloader command:
Now to my knowledge, I know that I am getting the device offline mode based on using the old ADB and Fastboot files. So the way to fix it, is to download the updated files but it doesn't result in anything at all.
With the updated ADB and fastboot files, and by booting into fastboot mode manually and then typing in ".fastboot devices", I get the Error Could Not Get Pipe Properties error in a loop.
Would appreciate the help folks!

Beauty! I didn't know that it has to be done for the same in OS X. Query, does this have to be done every time or?
Hello
Sorry if this was a very noob topic
I done lots of flashing new ROM or back in stock process but i almost gave up this time
My phone status are
No OS
TWRP installed
Can boot to recovery
PC can't recognize the phone
Typing ADB devices shows empty list
Typing Fastboot devices also shows empty lines
30% battery left
I recently try to install the Lollipop version for my phone but it turns out that the zip are behaving like OTA (yep the title of the zips are OTA)
What i mean is it returned my recovery to stock
Without thinking much further i did 'fastboot flash recovery TWRP2810.img' thing (Yes i rename recovery image that way so it will be more convenience for me) and wipe all partition in the phone through the TWRP without problems
One thing i forgot is to "refresh" all ADB and Fastboot driver for my phone on the PC
Now my phone states are "No OS" and "PC doesn't recognize my phone" wether in ADB (obvious cause i can't boot with no OS so no USB debugging for me) and Fastboot (Enter Bootloader is OK, enter TWRP is OK too)
I already try the WUG step for installing the needed driver but no success since my PC can't recognize my phone
Try on 4 PC at my office and all of them are ignoring my phone
What should i do now, please, any help will be appreciated since its already the time i ussualy already at home
Thank You Very VERY MUCH for any help I can get.

Okay, here's what you do.
Download the ADB drivers first, from here [URL="link"]http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

Extract the zip.
Once you're done extracting, boot your phone into bootloader mode, plug in USB, should show up as an unrecognized device.
Device manager from control panel, select device, properties, driver, update device driver, browse my computer, let me pick, all devices, have disk, navigate to where you extracted zip, select inf file, adb interface.
Should work.

Do you happen to know other way around for tricking this Sir?
Please lock this unuseful thread
Before locking the thread, can you repeat all the steps and try with ADB Composite Device instead of ADB Interface?
Also, did you try changing USB ports, sometimes these things get a little troublesome because of faulty USB ports.
Last but not the least, you could also try a change of cables.

i've been able to resurrect my phone finally
after those steps i found Universal Naked Driver and it works
Thank You very MUCH Sir :laugh:
Hello.
I've repaired a nexus 4 screen and digitizer but I got it back because my friend can't recover access from a forgotten pattern lock.
He is running stock android 5 lollipop and he doesn't get the email recovery option when he inputs wrong pattern. I've searched even in google support but I didn't find a solution to recover his photos.
My main concern is to recover files and photos!!! There isn't a reason to suggest a factory reset....
--Phone Status---
Boot loader seems unlocked "Locked state is marked as unlocked in bootloder in red letters" while secure boot is enabled in green letters
USB debugging seems OFF: There is no android device listed in device manager. I only get a music player in disk drives which is empty.
adb devices command in bootloader recognises it
When entering to recovery I get the message "no command" along with the icon of an android under repair.
No dropbox no google+ photos backup
---What I've tried---
UPDATE: Managed to flash TWRP 2.7.1.0 I can see the files but since usb flash drive doesn't work I can't copy the files...
Android Device manager: Returns error that the phone is already locked and there is no need to apply new password.
Tried about 30 wrong patterns and it didn't came up the google mail recovery option.
Tried during a phone call to see the files but I only managed to turn on WiFi.

When you say the USB flash drive doesn't work, do you mean the USB port in the phone?
MTP doesn't always work in TWRP, meaning it won't show up as a normal usb drive on a pc. ADB will still work though, you have to set up ADB on your computer, boot into twrp on the phone and use 'adb pull' to copy the files to the computer. On windows you will need to download adb and the drivers, I use http://www.koushikdutta.com/post/universal-adb-driver
I'm trying to install the drivers for adb but I cannot find the right one.
Edit: Also it cannot be detected from boot loader now. I'll try in a pc that already has been connected and worked.
I have adb and fastboot installed already and worked with this and my own phones.
Edit: It seems to be a lost cause the phone fell down many times. Don't bother maybe I'll solder a usb port first... if it is possible with my less than basic equipment.
There are many methods on the following page,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620456
The way I did it was an alternative version of method 5 while in twrp.
Method 5 - alternatively, Mount system in twrp and delete the file /data/system/gesture.key
If it asks for a pattern on boot just try any random pattern it should let you in. I did this when a version before lollipop was installed but there is no reason it shouldn't work on lollipop as the same file is saved in the same location, just checked.
Using adb
adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key

I'm 63 years old & could do with some help - trying to flash my Moto G4 but no luck
Hello folks.
I apologise in advance. I thought something was a good idea, and I said to myself I would give it a try and I won't give up, but I have been at this for about 5 hours now and no progress.
I have a Moto G4 which my wife gave about a year ago. I don't like stock Android and want to install Lineage OS onto it. I understand that first I need to:
1. Unlock my bootloader (done)
2. Install ADB Driver Installer onto my Dell (done)
3. Install Minimal ADB and Fastboot onto my Dell (done)
4. Plug my G4 into my Dell using the correct cable. It seems to work as the ADP Driver Installer / APK Installer recognises it as per the image below
/https://imgur.com/a/NBfrIcZ
5. Open up the command promt in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder, type adb devices - the device is recognised
6. Here is where the problems start!
(a) At this stage, as soon as I type adb reboot bootloader, the G4 reboots but as it does so it disappears from the ADB Diver Installer / APK Installer
(b) Soon after when I type fastboot flash recovery twrp.img then nothing is found, no files or directory or anything. I don't understand what I am doing wrong and am very stuck sadly

Great, my pictures don't work. I don't understand why. But basically when I write fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (it is in the same folder as Minimal ADB and Fastboot), it says not found to a bunch of things and no such file or directory.
