May be your adb n fastboot drivers aren't installed properly.. Read the official page of sony of unlocking the bootloader properly.. Its very clear:thumbup: and for help about installing drivers, google it or read stickies threads in neo forum..:thumbup:
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using xda premium
re install the adb driverss.. then it ll work
got the same error fr me when i first tried to unlock the bootloader
Sent from my MT11i using xda app-developers app
Cant unlock fastboot either. Actually cant install the fastboot driver, thats what the problem is. I tried a few different methods but its always the same.
Steps i taken:
Windows 8
Install JAVA and ANDROID SDK.
Updated to most recent usb drivers
Downloaded fastboot inf.
reloaded windows with the "install unsigned drivers" option enabled
And i always end up with an unrecognized device in the Devices menu.
Basically it wont "find" the driver, when i point to it.
---------- Post added at 10:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------
Finally i tried right clicking the driver and manually installing. After it warned me that it is not digitally signed, it installed. I went and tried to reupdate the unknown device i was getting instead of the fastboot device, chose to pick from the list and the Android Phone category was there.
Installed the device Android Bootloader Interface.
Went back to command prompt and run the "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version", but im getting no response from the phone.
Any clues?
Any help please?
Any moderator reading the thread, willing to reply? Is it a known problem not being able to install the driver?
Is there a workaround?

Sure,
Installed the JAVA/Android SDK and updated the drivers.
Turning off the device, pressing the menu button (rightmost button as facing the device) while plugging in the USB cable.
Device is found and registered in the System Manager but without drivers. S1 Boot Fastboot (or something).
Manually trying to install the drivers by pointing it to the directory of the Android usb drivers, to no avail.
Also tried installing different drivers like the ADB ones you adviced me to do, but same thing, windows searches the directory and subdirectories but cant find any compatible driver. Driver signature is turned off.
Also tried different USB ports, just to make sure im not using any USB3.0
Im using the Asus Maximus IV Gen3/Genz motherboard, on Windows8 Pro.
I hope we can get somewhere, its been months im trying to hack into the phone. Im really sick of how slow it performs

The thing is, if windows arent able to "detect" the driver-set you are pointing at, then you need to "enforce" to use it:
1) Update Driver Software
2) Browse my computer for driver software
3) ****** LET ME PICK FROM A LIST OF DEVICE DRIVERS ON MY COMPUTER *****
use the ADB drivers for the NEO V and it should work.

Sorry for asking this stoopid,noob question,but I never used PC Suite.
So,I just re-installed Windows XP and all is quite smooth. So,since I have a stable Windows OS now,I'm willing to flash the new baseband (finally,huh? ).
Do I only need to install LG PC Suite and all drivers will be installed(For using KDZ/LGMDP),or I need external tools/downloads/etc.? If so anyone kindly post a link here.
Only the drivers should be adequate.
But sorry I forgot the url where I got them.
I didnt use LG PC Suite, coz then I dont need it

Make sure you disable LGE Modem on windows Device Manager, right click on it should do the work.
Don't know about that but seems being plugged in while the LGE Modem is still active could interrupt the debugging process.

Driver Issues
I am having trouble installing drivers for my P500 on Windows XP using the B2CApp.
It installs 3 of them:
LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN32AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.2.1.exe
LGSmartPhone_ModemlinkDUNDrive_WHQL_ML_Ver_1.0.exe
LGWindowsMobile_USBDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver_1.0.exe
But even then, my phones not detected on the PC.
Btw, I must mention that I am stuck on the fastboot screen, while trying to do a NANDroid backup, after ROM Manager screwed up with my Custom Recovery installation.
Any idea if the above 3 are enough for me to proceed with the below link, or is there another LG fastboot driver that I might be missing? :

When I connect my phone and hit the first command on cmd prompt:

I get the following:

UPDATE:
I have fixed the issue. Got the drivers mentioned in this thread:
Anyone else stuck with Windows XP not recognizing the device even after the B2CApp installation, try these drivers:

Toggle debugging on then off.
I am in the same boat as you. A suggestion was posted in my thread in the Q&A section that PDANet solves the issue as it installs the drivers for you but it didn't work for me. Any dev's know a solution to this issue.

When you say that it should work, are you referring to the fact that we can run the exploit and unlock the phone even though it doesn't show in adb devices? I haven't been able to get mine to work that way. Thanks.
The pdanet didn't work either same error as previously stated. Mine doesn't even show up in fastboot devices. I am at a total loss here. I tried to override the drivers and it fails and states that the MTP USB Drivers are the most up to date and refuses to change or update it.

No, the exploit will not work if your phone does not show up in adb.
Also, this thread should be in Q&A, not in Development.

How can we get cwr whithout an unlocked bootloader or root. This isn't helpful unless we have cwr already on there which we don't as we don't have root because we don't have adb to push the exploit. I don't mean to be rude but I am getting aggravated with this ADB thing.

Hello,
I had similar issues with ADB not recognizing the DNA, I disabled HTC sync and closed out of the HTC SYNC in the task manager... You may or may not have tried this... Based on my experience this was what happened with me.. I also have windows 8 64bit. Hope this helps
:fingers-crossed:
I installed drivers listed on one of the forums here. then i installed htc sync. Then i had to download the sdk /with google drivers.
I would assume that when you have your command prompt open that you cd into the folder. platform-tools. that way the cmd can find adb?

If you set up adb right you don't have to CD into that folder.

You need to disable HTC Sync. Go in task manager and see if there is another ADB current running. That is what happened to me, HTC Sync was trying to push via ADB so when I tried to root it couldn't recognize my DNA.

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.

And the phone is recognized fine when in regular mode. Though, whenever I reboot the phone into the Bootloader using adb, it restarts into the fastboot, but it doesn't change to "Fastboot USB" and shortly after I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my PC and it saying something about it malfunctioning. So I get stuck on "Waiting for device" when trying out this command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token."
Any ideas? I'm trying to unlock the bootloader and root so that I can install custom ROMs and kernels.
Hey there! Sorry my fix didn't work for you.
My question is, are you running windows 8 or 8.1? The reason I ask is because the 8.1 update has broken fastboot apparently. I don't remember the last time I tried on my computer to see if fastboot still works or not since I updated to 8.1.
If you are running 8.1 windows then the guide at droid-now.com seems to have worked for many people. Go to that site and search fastboot fix windows 8.1 or you could just Google that too I guess. I would paste the link right now but my phone is being stupid and not letting me paste it ATM. :-|
If that doesn't work then you may be able get what you need done by dual booting into Ubuntu if you feel comfortable doing so. You could easily make a bootable flash drive that you could boot into just for an emergency. I just used one for about 4 days while fixing my computer after I accidentally erased the partition tables of my hard drive, trying to make a permanent installation of Ubuntu. Got it fixed BTW! ats self on back:
Keep us posted if you get it fixed or have any more questions! I hope I've been at least a little helpful. I'll try to help any more I can if possible!
Good luck!

I am running Windows 8.1, however it looks like the fix only applies to Intel motherboards connecting through USB 3.0 ports. I do have USB 3.0 ports, but my motherboard is AMD and my USB3 controller reads "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)." I'm not sure that the fix applies to me, unfortunately. Also, I am not connecting my phone to my PC using the USB3.0 ports.
I tried downloading the USB 3.0 Drivers for Windows 8 64-bit on the manufacturer's website for my motherboard (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305), but when I try to update my drivers to the ones I got from the website it says that the Microsoft provided ones are the most recent/ up to date drivers.

Be Advised, there is perhaps a way , you wil find in the link below, but be sure to use the right intel driver And only if you hae an intel chipset for usb3 , please read the comments and my bad experience :
Under win8.1/X64 that if you have(like me) an Intel 8 /c220 (or with a 4th generation like intel I7 4770k) you may encounter a big mess , and perhaps you''l have to do a clean install of win 8.1 : all the usb2 DEVICES were disconnected after the first iusb3xhc.inf driver install !! So no more usb/Bluetooth keyboard+mouse , fortunately i had an old ps2 keyboard and i was able to delete only with "tab/alt Tab/ctrl tab" keys the
"intel usb3 extensible " line in device manager, and as soon as i done a refresh (ALT+A) in device manager the previous driver(Microsoft) was reinstalled by win 8.1 andall the usb2 devices connected (mouse/keyb/hub etc)
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windo...#comment-19066
see there there's in the last comments at the bottom , Andrew(tks to him!)a link + modified drivers for intel8/c220)
and for me it worked mouse/keyB were functional during all the process
next step check the fastboot adb is working now
Here you go... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061435
A later post I made (I havent updated the OP, shame on me...) is a link to some universal drivers from CWM that works fantastic! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40108463#post40108463
Before trying this I would goto your device manager and right click on the currently installed drivers and uninstall them before installing the drivers again.
Hope that helps. I am using the link found in that second link and fastboot and adb works perfect. Also, while you can boot into fastboot, stock 1.58 will not let you run a lot of fastboot commands and will need to flash a different hboot.
Hey!
This is my first time posting, but I have read tons of threads on here over the last year or so with my Droid DNA.
A while ago, I rooted my DNA, and unlocked the Bootloader, and used moonshine for S-OFF. I now want to undo all that I have done. Wiping data is no issue, I backed up all my info. I plan to get a new phone soon. Basically, I can't get adb drivers to work. So I deleted my drivers, and installed the ones mentioned in the thread linked below, and I can't find how to get these drivers to work.
My plan is to follow this thread, using step 3 (for moonshine). I have TWRP installed, and flashed the lock_bootlader.zip file provided there. I cannot get adb to work, however, for the next step. For example, "adb devices" returns no devices. And thus i cannot use adb commands. When I run "adb devices", it shows this. What do I do??
Thanks
Some more clarification:
I might also add that Device manager shows my phone as "HTC6435LVW", under "Portable Devices". It seems to recognize it as an MTP Device when I try to update the drivers, and won't let me update the drivers, because "The best driver software for your device is already installed".
In addition, HTC Sync Manager does not recognize my phone either. I should mention that I already chose "Reset Phone" from the Settings menu, and then also did a Factory Reset from TWRP.
I'm so confused by all this - Why can't I get ADB to recognize it?? I have been and will continue to be searching for solutions to this problem here on XDA and also on Google. And do I even need to do all this to give my phone back to Verizon?
Try getting the drivers from PDAnet. If you are using Windoze 8 or 8.1 , good luck.

Windows device manager does not recognize it as an Android phone, but instead as a portable device, could this be a problem?

Yeah I've tried that. I think I've done everything and adb/toolkit will not read my phone but everything else is and all drivers installed perfectly. I'm just at a loss. Mostly all androids I've had have all been read quickly especially my last phone the note 3

Not sure it would matter since you're running commands from ADB but did you turn off fast boot in the power options? Also, I know there's a tool somewhere here on XDA where you can remove all of the android drivers and start fresh. I want to say it's called USBDeview. It was part of the WugFresh nexus 10 toolkit. I used the tool to get rid of all my samsung drivers and also HTC drivers so I could start fresh
Here's a link to the toolkit. Try using the driver installation guide there, it has the tool in it I used to get rid of all the android devices to start fresh.

This is assuming your drivers are the problem which is what it sounds like
Edit: just use that toolkit for the USBDeview tool, not to unlock your device as it is for the nexus 10. Lol sorry had to just make sure

well thats the problem. ADB isnt recognizing the phone but the rest of the computer is.

Hey guys I'm trying to unlock the boot loader through the all in one toolkit but it keeps saying device not find! All drivers installed correctly and the phone is being picked up through mass storage and connects to computer fine. I also have sdk tools installed and HTC drivers installed but the tool kit still didn't find phone. Also I run ADB devices and it didn't show up. Any ideas?

umm, did you enable developer options and enable usb debugging? if you type adb devices and nothing shows up, its not going to work. You should learn how to do it all manually anyways. It could save you in the future. Go to htc dev site and it walks you through it for windows and mac. VERY easy. You need to learn to use fastboot commands. Msg me if you can't get it done.

Right, and I guess I'm saying that it may be worthwhile to try cleaning out your drivers and then starting from scratch with HTC driver and android interface driver. When I cleaned out mine I had several duplicated. After removing them I was able to connect to my device just fine. I can't think of another reason why your device wouldn't connect

ive never had any problems with command ADB DEVICES showing the connected device until this phone. I CANT use htcdev because it makes me download some file called "fastboot-win.zip" and after extracting it wont opne and gives me error message of some missing file which is indeed not missing. And dont you need ADB when you get the unlock token anyway? never had this type of issue before.

You must enable usb debugging to use adb on htc. go, settings, about and click on build like 10 times until it says developer options, then go to settings/developer options and turn on debugging. adb will not work on stock rom unless you do this.
Do you have the fastboot application in addition to the ADB application in the directory from which you are running commands? You absolutely need fastboot to get your unlock token.
Also just to clarify, what exactly does it say when you try to run ADB commands? Simply "device not found?"

thats already checked. just unistalled all duplicate drivers and started fresh. now there is 3 drivers not installing. CDC serial, Android phone, and CDC serial again. not sure why that one installs twice but it failed anyway..those 3 will not install for the life of me.

in the toolkit it says "device not found"..when i run ADB devices it says "list of devices" but shows nothing. Now when i run the command it says in missing some .DLL extension file
Reboot your computer, install HTC sync manager again, then plug in your phone and drivers should install properly. But of course uninstall or close sync manager before you start running commands again
newest adb? usb 2 port? I have a mac so its a little different, but i had to update my adb when kit kat came out.

not sure. i dont keep ADB on my computer. I download it only when I need to. But i followed the instructions from the other user but now i get this message. "error: device offline".
Do you get the same result when you run 'adb devices' in command prompt? Also uncheck verify apps and unknown sources in security. And I just want to make absolute certain you have usb debugging enabled once more

ok so i ran the toolkit for the 3rd or 4th time and it rebooted in fastboot to obtain my token to unlock. but when i enter the token into htcdev website it keeps saying its wrong length. i checked over and over and its the right length and im copying what i see from the htc dev website instructions but three times i get wrong token length.
ok i got the code to work..now onto the next step.if i have problems ill be back here.
