[Q] Installing ADB and Fastboot - HTC Desire X

I recently bought a new laptop, and would like to be adding roms and what not through this laptop, I currently run a Windows 8.1 64bit ( I think) and would like to install ADB and Fastboot. Would the method - here - work for me or do I have to use another way?

Should work for you as stated here:
If you have problem with driver enumeration in Windows 8.1 install update KB2917929

I had a problem installing drivers too when wanted to unlock bootloader.
Somehow it was my computer , so i installed sdk manager and java sdk, and the drivers on my other computer HP mini 2140, all successfully. And this is not the first time i had to install drivers on another computer.
So try that first
Also, stop windows automatically installing, go to device manager and try from there (update driver)
Hope it work out for you.

Delete your device and USB-HUB with your device in Device manager.
Afer refresh - windows install normal driver.
Apparently something was changed in 8.1, making the current method useless.
For now, nothing can be done, you will just have to wait until a new solution is made or move back to Windows 8 or any previous OS.
I uninstall the usb hub driver and other driver but after that it automatically install flash mode driver even it is connected in fastboot mode. i dont know what happens it only shows as connected in flash mode.
Help anyone.

[Help] Fastboot: Waiting for device.

Hi, I'm trying to unlock my bootloader and its not working. I'm getting the waiting for device. I'm in fastboot inside HBOOT and it even says Fastboot USB. I am running Windows 8 and have installed all the drivers and it works fine when the phones on but when I go to HBOOT the drivers dont work. It says that windows doesnt recognize the usb, in device manager it shows it and says Device Failed Enumeration. Ive searched the internet for around 3 hours and it seems to be drivers. Any help would be great. Thanks!

hey friend you could install universal adb drivers and then check it should work..
Here are the two links go check them out...
Universal Windows ADB Driver by Koush
Universal Adb Driver
Hello, my friend I'm sorry, but right now there is probably no way, how to make fastboot work on Windows 8.1. Trust me, I've tried to find a solution for many days, but at the end, I had to use borrowed netbook with Windows 7 installed on it. The problem is, that 8.1 always connects fastboot devices as "Unknown USB's". For those you simply can't install these drivers, even if you try using Safe mode, or if you start system with allowance of unsigned drivers. Basicly what's happening is, that windows thinks, you want to reinstall USB driver, not fastboot driver.
I was thinking about the possibility of using older virtualized system or Linux on which it should work (though you won't find many guides). Keep on trying and don't give up You'll manage to unlock it eventually. The question remains, on which system it would be.

Flashtool not opening.

Running Windows 10 64x. Flashtool won't open.
Installed the latest version. Both 32x & 64x won't open. I get a loading icon over my mouse and nothing. Compatibility mode isn't working. Installed all drivers, not sure what's wrong with it.
How can I get this working?
And how can I uninstall all the drivers I won't be needing?
what about windows 7. flash tool works good for me on windows 7. now if don't have a PC with windows 7 then look on instructions on how to use flash tool with windows 8/10. why not dual OS 7 & 10?

For me, it works fine with Windows 10. I installed the same version which I had used in Windows 8.1. Are you sure you are using the same tool which you had used previously (in Window 7 or 8) ?

I don't have space to boot a dual OS, and don't have access to a machine with Windows 7 unfortunately.

Last time I used Flashtool was around 4-6 months ago.
I'll try a couple of different versions, and hopefully one of them works.
well I hope you can make it work. I always have dual OS just in case the new OS is incompatible with old stuff?

You started flashtool and closed it. It is still active in the background.
start task manager (CTRL-SHIFT-ESC)
you will see flashtool in the list. Right click on it and close task.
then you can start flashtool again.
Try right-clicking on Flashtool then go to Properties>Compatibility>Run in Compatibility Mode, and then select one of the older OS and see if that works. Also try running as Administrator mode.

Do you know how I can do this on a Mac? Flashtool does not show up in the Force Quit window, and only grayed out in the Energy tab of the Activity Monitor.
I'd also like to add that I have rebooted my computer twice and the problem has persisted. I originally installed v0.9.19.8 which opened fine. Then I learned that I needed the previous version, so I downloaded that. When I tried to open it, it simply did not do anything. Now, neither version will open.
Upon further inspection, I've noticed in the Activity Monitor that FlashTool does open briefly after I click Open, but closes automatically. The UI never shows up. Any suggestions?
I'm having the same problem
Same problem, how to solve this issue?
