Can't install ADB (got CWM and CM 10.1) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there people ::- D.
After a long battle, I managed to get CWM & CyanogenMod 10.1 on my SG2. Now I'm trying to root it with SuperOneClick.
Unfortunately, SOC complains that it can't find drivers. I do allow it to install them "forcibly" but this won't make the errors go away. I even tried with the Samsung Mobile Driver. Same problem, SOC just won't work. See screenshot below.

I enabled the Debug Bridge on from CyanogenMod and the phone connects to the computer (I can transfer files).
I also tried downloading the Google USB driver and installing it from Computer Management -> Devices. I tried updating the driver software but Windows tells me that it's already up to date. Unfortunately, the driver still shows as defective:
Please help me get this baby going . Much appreciated!

May I know why you want to root again? You are already rooted and running CM10 right?

Um. Because I'm silly? ::- D. I did *suspect* I may be rooted, since I have super-user stuff in my CM10.1. But here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693 ) in the CWM thread, codeworkx specified that I "can" root my device using SOC. I didn't make the connection that changing my OS also includes that step.
But ANYWAY, I would still like to get the ADB running because I want to do a bit of development on it. ALSO, when something doesn't work, it pisses me off something awful .
So the question still remains .

Anybody else wanna have a crack at this? Please?

Probably this article about USB drivers can help you. There are several different drivers available and depending on system / recovery / etc. a phone can also identify itself with a different USB id. Unfortunately especially on Windows these problems occur very often

This worked for me....
Open device manager with phone plugged in find the phones driver and un-install it now unplug the phone and plug it back in, it should re-install the driver.
IF that fails and you have a HTC phone Install HTC sync it will download the latest driver for you.if you dont have a HTC phone then i dont know what to say.
Your welcome if i helped
and Good luck on getting your problem resolved soon if i didnt help

As you were told on the other forums you posted this on, you need to locate the Device Manufacturer "abo" and ask them for help with the drivers. If you'd had bought a phone that wasn't from some unknown manufacturer, it would have made your life much easier.
Good luck.

[Q] Using ADB with Sony Tablet S - ICS 4.0.3.r1a

Hi, i am new to the xda developers forum and i got a question about the android debugger, since i'm clueless what to do after several hours of searching :silly:
I have an Sony Tablet S with ICS version 4.0.3.r1a (not rooted) and i want to use it for app developing.
Sadly sony does not provide drivers out of the box, so i have to search for working drivers myself. I know, they provide a description of lines, you have to add to the google driver, and i have tried two different methods to get adb working, but my devices still does not show up in the adb devices list.
method 1 (automated driver installer): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488822
method 2 (google driver modification): http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/suppo...=684a6e492d1523ff4081def0a00b48a1&info_id=878
The device seems to use the driver, since it shows up as Android Composite ADB Interface in the devmgmt, but it still does not show up in the adb devices list.
Here some Facts about my os and settings:
My PC:
OS: Win7 ultimate x64
adb-version: 1.0.29
google usb-driver version: 7.0.0.1
My Tablet:
Android-Version: ICS 4.0.3.r1a
USB-Debugging is enabled
Other sources for apps are allowed
here some pictures of my file contents & devices:

My head is smoking atm, so i hope you know more about drivers and adb as i do and maybe someone of you had the same problem and can help me, i would be really greatful.
So long,
r3bel
Finally i found a solution of my problem...
As simple as it was, i could kick myself ... the driver seems to have a problem with my usb 3.0 controller, the adb finds the device if it is plugged into a usb 2.0 port.
maybe this helps others who have the same problem
I had same problem (it was working before) and I did system restore to get it to work.
Then I could able to root my tablet.
How did you solve the usb problem?

Rooting a TracFone ZTE Z233

Hello all, I've come with an interesting problem.
I've recently purchased the incredibly cheap TracFone ZTE Z233, running "3.10.49-gdac61ef-00512-ge30dd04 zte-kerne;@Zdroid-SMT" and have decided to try and root it. After having gone through conventional methods, I would like to ask for your guys's input. I started by attempting the traditional methods, specifically downloading and attempting to run KingRoot.apk on the phone. The resulting message, "Cannot find an app to open this file" sent me to find the google play store. Upon the discovery that there was no google play store, I downloaded and ran the windows version of KingRoot on my PC after connecting the phone. Unfortunately, even though my PC recognized the device and was able to move files on and off of it, KingRoot could not find the phone.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Next, I tried to step through the directions Kingroot gave for enabling USB debugging as you can see in the second image. Unfortunately, I parsed through every single setting in the settings menu of the Z233, and no USB debugging option exists on this device. Upon discovering this, I attempted to find other means of rooting ZTE devices and discovered https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319257&page=1 was quite popular. However, this method also requires USB debugging. I won't bore you with the five or six other methods I tried, the issue always boiled down to the solution requiring a feature this phone did not have. The point is, as far as I can tell, there is no way to root this phone by conventional means.
I don't absolutely need to root this, (I bought it as a burner phone) but now I'm interested in rooting it as a project. I'm genuinely curious as to whether or not it can be done. I was hoping you guys would have some leads. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty or do stuff that would risk bricking the phone (like I said, it was cheap.)
Any thoughts, questions or leads? Thanks!
I have ZTE Cymbal Z-320, which is quite similar to this. I can reach USB debug only in FTM mode (when phone is off, PWR ON + VOL DOWN and you in). Root apps are founding phone, tryying to root, but can't. It running android 5.1.1, read more https://androidforums.com/threads/zte-cymbal-z320-root-hack.1290564/

Android (LG G6) won't connect as MTP to Macos (as ADB it does)

Hello everyone,
a) My guess is, it might a problem with the drivers. I installed some LG programes earlier, already deinstalled it... But, Maybe you know better how to renew the Android drivers on the Mac and get rid off the stuff which probably blocks me from having the file transfer function again.
b) do you know at least any other (free) Programe that uses ADB to connect the phone to Mac?
c) something I have not thought of... You tell me
Once it was possible to connect the phone to my Mac and transfer files with Android File Transfer. Now it is not. I tried several other programmes, none can connect to the phone via MTP (for file transfer).
When I chose not "data transfer" but "photo transfer" as an option in the phone, the Photo app on Mac opens and I could trnasfer photos - so it works!
But I need file transfer....
I have and try several cables. Phone works without any problems with windows.
The only thing works now for transfering files via cable is MacDroid, which can connect the phone via ADB insetad of MTP. --> Problem: it costs money (and why should it now work in MTP in the first place).
The phone generally is found by the computer:
View attachment 4950209
I use as OS "El Capitan". On the phone Android 9.0. Phone LG G6
Thank you!
PS: The phone even asks me if I want the Mac to authorize:

}
PS2: Macdroid works with the phone even in MTP Mode when Debugging is deactivated. So what is this... I do not get it.
Guys, girls, anybody, please give me a hint, think with me, tell me where to look for answers ...
Finally... I knew it was some ****ty LG Software... I installed all the LG Software I could find on their website. Plus some dirver they provided. And THIS time, I deinstalled them using their own tool. Now it works again...
I think I had installed something earlier and then just deleted it or something.
So in short, it was necessary do install and UNINSTALL the LG drivers from their website.

Stable tutorial for first-timer to maintain an Essential PH-1?

Hello, I've never gone beyond entering developer mode on any of my phones, looking around carefully, then turning that mode off. I own two PH-1 phones, one is in full time service, and I would like to know of a tutorial / step-by-step to do what I need to do to maintain this phone with the images (ROMs?) that are being maintained and updated. I don't need the phone to do anything other-worldly, just keep it updated.
This is the only forum on here I'm allowed to post to, because I've been a listen-only member for a couple years but have never posted. I've just started using Ubunto 20.04 on a new laptop so I can get away from Windows, but I still have a Win7Pro laptop.
Thanks for your recommendations on how to get started -- safely started -- and how to learn what I need to learn.
Also, I just read some of the read-me-first stickys, and please allow this to also be my "Say Hi" email...
"MP"
PS -- I get a captcha, check it, get the green checkmark, but I see *no* image... I'm using firefox w/ NoScript (all scripts enabled for this tab), on an Ubuntu 20.04 laptop.
So no one cares to reply? Did anyone read it besides myself? Whiskeytangofoxtrot

If phone's Android OS isn't an A/B-partition-layout-system - what I believe because its Stock ROM is Android 7.1. - then updating a phone's Android requires phone's boot-loader is unlocked. This must get enabled within phone's Developer options - keyword: OEM unlock - what simply sets phone's unlock ability flag to 1 . Additionally it's necessary that ADB ( read: Android Debug Bridge ) gets enabled in phone's Developer options - keyword: USB debugging.
