Device wont show as ADB

I've rooted my Nexus 10 and flashed a recovery and installed SU but my device wont show when i type adb devices
it works when im in fastboot and type fastboot devices. I go to device manager on my computer and it says adb interface is installed and working properly but i cant get the serial to show.
I had this problem, I fortunately had 3 PCs at my disposal, 2 Win7 and 1 Win8. Only one of the Win7 PCs would ever recognize my Nexus 10.
I know that's not much help, but if you can, try another PC, preferably Win7.
Uninstall and download the latest.

USB device not recognized

Hello. i noticed that my computer(win 8.1) was giving a usb device not recognized error a few days ago. i didn't fix and eagerly updated to android 4.4.3, but forgot to disable freedom and now can't use google play services. i can fix that but the DAMN PHONE STILL ISN'T RECOGNIZABLE BY THE DAMN COMPUTER. i have tried multiple cables and installed win 8 dual boot but still got the same error. i also tried to reinstall drivers. but i think i didnot do it right.
both adb and fastboot are not working. if u could tell me a method to install a custom recovery without root and adb that would sove half my problems but still need help getting the computer to recognized the phone.
Normally this is a problem with charging block of the phone.
You have to root to flash recovery without a computer, towelroot works on 4.4.3. Once rooted you can use goomanager app to flash twrp recovery.
Does the PC making sound of connected I disconnected continually?

Bricked & Unseen...

Ok, here goes my story.
Just a week ago from the date this was posted, I decided to update my recovery (TWRP) through ROM Installer. Surprisingly, I didn't see TWRP at all in the "Recoveries" section of the application. Stock, ClockworkMod Touch, regular Clockworkmod (no touch), and unofficial Clockworkmod were available - from what I can remember. I decided to use Clockworkmod (no touch) to install Paranoid Android. Coming from OmniROM, I factory reset and flashed the .zip.
Flashing ended in error with Status 7. A while before I had used ClockworkMod Touch to try another ROM and had no such issue. I ignored the error and restarted my tablet hoping that it would still boot fine. It rebooted, gave me the Google logo for about 5-10 seconds and automatically rebooted into recovery.
I saw a bypass for Status 7. Removing some lines from the updater-script was the solution. Having no access to my Nexus 7 storage, this bypass is unusable
I tried flashing a new recovery using flashboot fastboot. After verifying that I had my drivers installed (Universal ADB by Koush), I opened up adb in the command line (Windows) as an administrator. I could not see my device. I tried the drivers from Asus, multiple USB 2.0 ports, and a different USB cord, but same results. I tried on a different computer. Still no detection.
Systems used: Windows 8.1, Windows 7 (x64), Windows 7 (x86)
I tried using Wug's Toolkit and used Flash Stock + Unroot, since it didn't need USB Debugging enabled. Same results...
I also tried plugging in another Android phone (LG Optimus Dynamic II) to see if Windows would recognize it. Windows recognized it, installed drivers automatically, and was recognized in ADB immediately. This practically unknown phone (XDA doesn't have a section for it yet) could be recognized, but my world famous Nexus 7 2012 can't be seen.
I have absolutely no idea of what to do now...
Are you on the bootloader screen when trying to use fastboot?

Yes. Every time I use fastboot, I am in the bootloader.
I'm not new to this at all, so say whatever you need to ^^
The main problem is my PC not recognizing my Nexus 7 through adb. Again, I have used multiple cables with no success.
The computer I am using for this runs Windows 7 x64. I have only tried using USB 2.0 ports to connect my tablet.
Thank you!
Might try deleting the drivers and starting over. I had some issues with adb drivers for both the N7 and the kindle fire on windows 7 as well, but eventually got both working by doing this several times.
I'm assuming you ticked the option for softbricked when trying the flash stock option? If not try again and check that option.
This thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796 has a section on driver installation with good info and links too.
Hope that helps. Best of luck man, getting the adb drivers working properly seems to be finicky sometimes in my experience, and i'm no stranger to PC and software troubleshooting either.

Bricked Oneplus 2 Not Connecting To PC

- How My Phone Got Bricked?: (Chinese Version Oneplus 2) I Was On Oxygen OS 3.0 And TWRP 3.0 And I Decided To Flash The Resurrection Remix ROM, I Did A Full Wipe And I Installed The Rom And It Failed To Installed The ROM. Now My Phone Is In A Bootloop With No OS Installed. I Have The Chinese Version OP2
- Current State Of My Device: My Device Is In A Bootloop With No OS Installed, I Did Notice That My Phone Was Not Being Recognized VIA Fastboot & ADB On My PC. I Went Fastboot Mode And My Phone Is Not Being Recognized By PC, And I Went To TWRP, ADB Was Not Working And ADB Sideload Is Not Working. I Also Tried A USB OTG With A USB Drive And Still TWRP Recovery Is Not Recognizing It. How Ever When I Connect My Device To PC And Check Device Manager And Press Scan For Hard Ware Changes My Device Shows Up As "COM 1". I Also Did Try To Put My Phone Into Qualcomm Mode Trying Alot Of Key Combinations But My Phone Is Not Getting Into Qualcomm Mode Or It Just Might Be Me Since I Heard Its Tricky For The Phone To Get Into Qualcomm Mode. I Did Try One Click ADB And Fastboot Installed And Qualcomm USB Driver, Still No Luck. And I Did Try The MEGA Unbrick Guide. I Have Tried This With 3 Other Computers Which Are All Running Windows 10 And Turned Driver Signature Enforcement Off And Still No Luck, And Also A PC Running Linux Mint And Still No Luck. Please Help Me And I Will Put All Thanks On All Of Your Replies And I Really Appreciate Your Help!
- Whats Working:
- My Device Charges From The PC And Wall
- I Am Using The Official OP2 Cable
- Can Access Recovery + Fastboot
- Turns On But In A Bootloop
I think it's a bad cable... if you can get into fastboot and the PC with Windows 10 and Linux both don't see it.. cable
Not sure whats needed on windows, since I never use it....but after a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 a few days ago, I did have to install a few adb and fastboot packages before my devices were recognized. Do you know if the adb/fastboot packages and they're dependencies are installed on the Linux mint computer?
If yes, power off phone and plug into computer. Then start phone in fastboot mode. Open a terminal on the PC and run "adb devices" (without quotes of course) .....any output on screen?

Yeah I did try typing ADB devices and Fastboot devices in both twrp and fastboot. I think the issue might be the cable

Yeah I think the cable is probably the problem. Although my phone chargers with the cable. I will look into buying a new cable soon but its a little expensive. I will try to buy it next week

I'm sure you been reading and seen people with the same cable as ours with the same problem.. works with charging but not adb or fastboot. But you can try to issue a command with it.. fastboot devices does sometimes come back empty.. just try to do OEM unlock for example.

My cable did used to work with adb and fastboot before, and I did unlock the bootloader with it before. I think now the cable got broken
Same issue working cable
Same issue... but my cable is working fine. I have a 2nd OP2 and tried the qualcomm connect with my cable and volume up, and worked perfect. More over, I swapped motherboards and still didnt work. I have access to twrp on the phone and I can get into fastboot. But no way to connect to my pc

Fastboot Not Recognized

I am not able to get Fastboot to reconginze my One Plus 6T. I have reinstalled the drivers numerous times to no avail. I have changed ports to no avail. I have change USB cables to no avail. Is anyone else having a similar problem and if so, any solution?
BTW, I am using a Windows 10 computer.
Also, I was able to install the International Version on my TMO variant One Plus 6T via the MSM tool method, so the drivers appear to be installed correctly.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Delete the drivers you have installed, boot into fastboot and have Windows automatically detect and install for you. Have you tried that? What source did you get your fastboot drivers from?

Msmdownload drivers are not the same at all, they are Qualcom drivers. Uninstall your fastboot drivers and let windows install them

Oh man, I had issues getting my 6t to connect to my PC when I first got my 6t. The answer for me was to plug my phone into a USB 2.0 port on the BACK of my PC instead of the front USB ports my PC has. Try using the back USB ports and let me know if that works for you!
Thank you all. I will try these suggestions later today and report back.
I tried the suggestions and still no success in fastboot connecting with my device. Thanks again for the suggestions.
After trying to multiple times reinstall the drivers, manually selecting "Android Bootloader Interface" did the trick for me on win10:

Issue resolved. Selected Android Bootloader Interface in Device Manager and fastboot recognized my device. Unlocked Bootloader, installed TWRP and Magisk. Root achieved.
Thank you all!!!

Thank you! I can't believe I didn't think to check that.
it is solved for me oneplus 6t not recognized in fastboot
{ solved for me } hello brother, i got this problem also my head was about to explosing, install/uninstall drivers and adb drivers also, without any success, when the device is on normal mod the adb terminal can recognize it and in fastboot mod not recognize my devie (the list empty).
i was trying to install TWRP, so i have reboot my device to fastboot mod, and i didn't think about List of devices (because it not show my device) i wrote the comand to install TWRP directly so it success to install 100%,
so no need to write : adb devices when your device is in fastboot mod, it will not show you in the list, but you can apply what you want normally
good luck

Hello. I am having the same issues. But can you provide more steps on how to install TWRP. Can you provide the command/steps used to directly install TWRP?
Thank you.

This is why I use Linux in my LOS Install Guide. You can boot Linux from a USB without installing it. Fastboot and ADB just work, without any drivers. Install TWRP, reboot and your PC will be back to windows. My guide covers installing TWRP.
Really need help. I'm going in circles and wasting a lot of time:
I'm attempting to root a OP6T A6013. Its already been unlocked.
My device is recognized when powered up as an ADB device.
But when i boot into the bootloader it isnt recognized as a fastboot device, and my laptop (Win 8.1) shows ""device malfunctioned. USB not recognized". I've also been trying to install the OP driver but I'm not sure its working correctly. But would that cause the problem with recognizing fastboot?
I've root my OP7Pro (twice, actually) and though I had some driver issues then eventually figured it out. But I never had issues with fastboot.
Any tips or direction?
Hey all , replying to share my solution to this exact problem I was having..
My OP6T (T-Mobile converted to international) was not showing in fastboot devices but showed in ADB.. after hours of searching google and XDA , I ended up just plugging my 6T into another computer and it worked! , instantly recognized my device without hassle.
So just a fyi, it could be something simple as switching USB ports or even another computer.
hopefully this helps if someone get's stuck at this point.
I had this issue with a OP8Pro... I went to Windows Update and selected View Optional Updates and found Android Bootloader Device on the list. I selected this to download, and then fastboot worked perfectly.

sudo fastboot oem unlock worked in linux in first shot while windows was unable to recognize the device.
Thanks a ton.
EDIT : Just to add .. this linux was in VM

I agree. Linux is far better when flashing android phones
