I've done some searching and I can't find anything on this. I can't find any download links or whatever.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.
Thanks guys!
I just downloaded the Android SDK. It includes adb.

Oh ok.
I'm installing it now.
If you search my stats i made a good thread on stting it up i attached drivers too
Weird: had no problems using adb on my HTC Magic, but adb remount w/ the HD2 gives me 'remount failed: Unknown error: 0'
I have the sdk installed. When I connect the HD2, it asks for the location, I specify the location of the SDK. It cannot find anything. What exactly is it looking for?

After downloading the Android SDK, use its manager to download the windows drivers and it will be downloaded in, for example, C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver
Use this folder when windows ask you for drivers.
OMFG I'm about to throw this POS out of the window! My G1 never gave me close to as many problems as this hackjob. I am going crazy trying to figure out how adb works on the hd2, on the G1 it was in the phone when it was rooted, I downloaded the program from java, installed sdk manager and the windows usb drivers, what do I do next? It still doesn't see my device, neither does droidexplorer and I have usb debugging on. ALL I WANT IS MY DAMN GPS TO WORK, POS IS ROOTED BUT WON'T SAVE MY CHANGES WHEN I CHANGE THE GPS.CONF FILE! sorry, no sleep, work nights, one day left to fix this phone... or I might just buy a damn iphone

I am having a heck of hard time loading the drivers for the Aria.
I do have USB debugging selected, and it shows up as an adb device in the device manager, but it will not load drivers.
I am running windows 7 64bit if that helps. If anyone can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.
Get a linux live cd, like ubuntu. Then you don't need drivers
EDIT:Upon reading this I sound like a ****. I didn't mean to be, just trying to helps.
I have it working on Win7 x64.
Have you installed the HTC Sync software? You don't need to run it, but need to install it so it can install the correct drivers for you.
I highly, highly suggest using the irc for support.

I had the same issue I'm sure the problem is that you need the ADB drivers which is provided by HTC Sync..
Try installing HTC SYNC UPDATE FOR HTC ARIA™ (AT&T) (2.0.38) | 06.22.2010
http://member.america.htc.com/download/Web_materials/Manual/HTC_Aria_ATT/HTCSync2.0.38.exe
I too am running windows x64 and it worked for me.
Thank you all for your replies! The HTC Sync was exactly what I needed. Thanks!

I tried and tried for days to get this working and couldnt. Yesterday I uninstalled and reinstalled the same version of HTC Sync and everything worked on the first try.
Anyone else completely unable to download the HTC Sync software for Aria? I've been trying to root this bad boy for a day and a half now, and just when I've got it narrowed down to no drivers, the HTC site seems to have completely forgotten what HTC Sync for Aria is. lol
-----Edit-----
The download LOOKS like it's available for the Aria, on the Aria downloads page. They ask for my serial number, verify it, and give me a download link. THe download link takes me to a generic download page, where the only version of Sync listed is 2.0.33. Anyone able to get it? Anyone able to host it for download?
Why edit the post again? lol
The new link is to the new version of HTC Sync. I can't post the link, because I'm a n00b, but this is the portion after the domain.

Try this... it worked for me

After you enter your serial number and the download link appears, don't left click it, right click it and choose save target as. That's how I got HTC sync. Now if I could just get the darn Aria rooted...

it is *really* simple using a Linux Boot CD, nothing to install and it just works almost immediately. Use the IRC #liberatedAria channel for help
here's a mirc command , just type or paste this into Status window
/server -m chat.freenode.net -i timtucker timtucker- [email protected] tim_tucker -j #liberatedAria
The link doesn't work for me; did they pull it already?
Apparently, they were working on a new version of Sync. On Friday, after I posted, I noticed a new version alongside the old. And the old link started working again. After many tries with the usb plug timing, I was able to root my aria. Thanx to all!

I know Ubuntu is much easier to get ADB running. But, I edited the file to add the Vendor ID:
Code:
sudo leafpad /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
In the file, which leafpad created, I typed these two lines for the Kindle Fire 2:
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”,SYSFS{idVendor}==”0x1949″,MODE=”0666″SUBSYSTEM==”usb”,SYSFS{idVendor}==”1949″,MODE=”0666″
For HTC, the code is "0bb4"
So, use:
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”,SYSFS{idVendor}==”0bb4″,MODE=”0666″
I saw 0x1949 in the windows .ini file, and most Linux VIDs were just four digits, so I did both...
Worked like a charm. There's a great tutorial for ADB on Ubuntu / Xubuntu

i am missing one called ADB and High Tech Computer lol any idea how to get them

you need HTC Sync.
If you download this it will allow you to just install those drivers you need and not HTC sync itself.
still does not have those 2 drivers
Do you have ADB installed? Have you downloaded the Android-SDK for Windows? Without that, you aren't going anywhere with ADB.

hmmm it did for me, but read below. Also, if it still says it isn't installed, go to device manager and right click on the ?ADB and click install drivers, and tell it browse your computer and chose drive C: and click OK. It should find the drivers.

first thing you need to do is this, download the SDK, put it where ever you want, and then run the program inside the main folder, which will update everything.
i think it installed when i installed htc sync i did the sdk thing with the nexus s so maybe that worked out but the high tech computer does not want to i am trying to tether from where you plug it in to the comp and on the TB show what you want to do like like mount etc...
Here, this'll get you going:
http://www.thunderboltforums.com/forum/htc-thunder-development/315-android-sdk-adb-driver.html
Heres the deal. I have a MAC with a newly installed hard drive. On my old hard drive I had everything setup with SDK and Adb but that was when I had an HTC Hero. My problem is this: When in terminal my damn computer keeps prompting me for a password but it doesnt allow me to type anything except control C which aborts the program. It never was like that with the old hard drive.
2. Ive dl SDK for MAC unzipped it and saved it to my desktop and my hard drive.
3. When I click on tools it says "adb_has_moved.txt"
4. It says the adb tool has moved to platform-tools/ and if you dont see this directory in your SDK, launch the SDK and AVD manager and install "android SDK Platform-tools and also update my path environment variable to include the platform-tools/ directory, so I can execute adb from any location. What the heck does this mean and how do I fix it. Also how do I know if SDK is installed correctly.
5. I DL some version of eclipse that was recommended from SDK but I dont know how to use that either.
6. I have tried all the root methods shown here in XDA except the on with the Dock since I dont have a dock.
7. Also ADB does not recognize my device and my debug is selected. I cannot get it to find my device.
8. One last question when some instructions say unzipped and move the root exploit to /data/tmp/ is that the file labeled under sdcard/data or is it the one inside the Android Folder listed as "data"
Please anyone help if possible.
let me try that
Stupid question but How do I launch SDK?

Make sure your phone has USB Debugging Mode enabled. Otherwise, adb will not recognize your device.
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879701
However, you will have to modify for MAC.
In my opinion the easiest way to root the Photon is still using the dock method. Otherwise, try the One Click Root method (Torpedo) as mentioned above. Then you don't have to worry about issuing all the commands.
I got it done I got it done. What I did was borrow my daughters windows netbook and the one click method worked on the first try. Thanks to all who replied. I will definitely hit your thanks buttons.

im sorry.. my tool was a one click i dint think i needed to give it instructions.. especially teh part of how to run it on your computer... just fyi.. when invoking sudo (to do things as admin/root) on your computer. you are asked to enter in your password.. as a privacy/security feature it will NOT display any characters.. ergo it looks blank...
as you arent teh first one to run into this issue ill add instructions for mac users ( i know anyone running linux can figure out how to run a bash script, and windows users have a bat file after installing 209387249087 drivers... but they still figure it out ;P)

The drive? Do you mean driver? The only driver you need to use ADB is the regular HTC device drivers. ADB itself comes in the Android SDK.
I just did this today, install SDK from android.com; then you have to install HTC Sync.

You don't actually need HTC Sync. I've never installed it and don't plan on it. All you need is a custom driver .inf that we put together for you already.
This should help you if you have any questions installing the sdk.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK
You could always just install HTC sync (which will install the drivers) and then uninstall HTC sync. The drivers will not be uninstalled.

I followed that set up exactly, but I am unable to get adb to recognize my device at all. No "Unknown Device" shows up in device manager so I can not change the driver for it. Not sure why I have such trouble with adb. It's never worked for me.
Are you setting the path to the platform tools in your system variables?

And as expected, not only will ADB not work, not that I changed the drivers according to the guide, my computer won't recognize my phone when it's plugged in as a disk drive. Running Bamf 2.4.1. I rooted with the 3 step/"1 click" method months ago and never had any problems. I try to get adb set up so I can do things properly and learn and now I have nothing but problems.

Got it sorted. I ended up deleting the android sdk and starting from scratch using the first link....and it didn't work again. Tried the video link above...and it didn't work. Then I figured I'd try to delete the adb device in Device Manager, unplug my phone, then plug it back in. That worked for some reason. Now it shows up in adb properly, and I can connect it as a disk drive as well. Huzzah indeed.
Ok, so I formatted my computer, and now I cant push files thru fastboot anymore...any ideas?
Dont you need htc drivers for that? Have you tried to install htc sync?
What he ^ said.
Make sure you download the SDK and
then the platform-tools, as well as install
htc sync.
After that, you should have no problems
I did install sync as well as the sdk, however, one of the portions of the sdk won't install, its telling my I have AV software that's utilizing the same folder...but I have no AV software?

Google will help you solve this problem with the AV folder sharing thing. It's a very common thing. I would help more if i was posting from my laptop, but I'll let you google it yourself since I'm posting from my phone.
