As the title states when I run adb devices it returns an empty list. I have USB Debugging on. I am at a loss here. I have also uninstalled the drivers and tried to push the Google drivers in SDK. That still didn't work. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
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.
"fastboot devices" should work.

mine does it gives me the serial number and fastboot
but neither of our adb devices work.
I did the USB Debugging toggle multiple times and and it won't work. I saw your thread termin8tor22 and I am in the process of trying the pdanet solution. I'll post back if it works for me.

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.

I am trying to unlock it so I can get CWR on it. I can't even unlock it since it refuses to show up in ADB. How did you get CWR on yours if you don't mind me asking?

I pushed thru adb. did you uninstall htc sync and update your android sdk. sorry just trying to give any usefull info. not in any way a master dev or anything

i used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996389, and had to do the CIDGEN unlock because I have a verizon phone. I followed the steps exactly and had 0 problems.
see you pushed through adb, which we cant get to recognize our devices. thats all, no harm intended.

did you change your environment variable path set to your adb/fastboot location?
As for the drivers:
HTCDriver.RAR > run the exe
HTCDriver.rar
HTC.RAR > put in C:\Program Files\ and C:\Program Files (x86)
HTC.rar
thats my setup and it worked

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.
ive tried every method to unlocking the bootloader and i cant get the command prompt to do anything it wont reconize my device is their an easier way into unlocking and rooting
If you can't get adb working then you shpuldnt have a rooted phone in the first place.

Sounds like you don't have all the drivers installed and/or don't have sdk tools installed.
And no, there is no other way to unlock it.

Download the latest SDK (search for 'adt- bundle -windowsx86') and extract that file into your C drive.
There will now be an 'adt-bundle-windowsx86' folder on your C drive, inside that is the SDK manager.exe
Run SDK manager-it will create the adb tools you will need AND put them in the "sdk/platform-tools folder"
after the SDK tool opens, you only need to add the 'google usb drivers' (1 item) No need to select that box
as is checked off by default anyway. All other required adb files will have installed already. Install those google drivers
and you should be ready to unlock the bootloader. I would put all the OTHER required files to unlock it in the 'platform-tools folder also.
Then go to that platform-tools folder, hold down shift key and right click in an open area, choose 'open command prompt here' then just follow the tutorial pasting in the commands.it will work...

I'm not the one with the problem, I'm already unlocked, rooted, and rommed
ive already gotten the sdk installed ive watched droidmodderx video on how to do it and still cant get no where im new to rooting htc phones ive done rooted motorola and samsung phones and their not as hard
I had a issue with the drivers installing from my phone to my pc. I installed pdanet 3.5 (Google it for pc, play store for phone) on my pc and phone. Let pdanet install the drivers, once installed you can uninstall pdanet.
Once the drivers installed I was able to see my device in adb. Sorry if one of the links above were for this fix I didn't click them.

Well if you type the command adb device and nothing and your device doesnt show, there is 2 possible reason for the issue the first is that your phone is not in adb mode, go to the setting/developer options and make sure usb debugging is enabled
the second is that your phone adb driver weren't installed correctly i had the issue when i watch this video because when i was in sdk manger i unchecked the option to install the android 4.2 (API17) package, disconnect/reconnect phone and the adb driver install just fine after that
Sadly there is no other way to remove the verizon cid block as of right now

If you have sdk installed right then adb will be working...then if you follow the tutorial in the dev section (jcase) it will work. I have heard that some older versions of adb didn't support restore and that WAS an issue for me so I re installed the latest version of SDK and it then worked flawlessly. That's why I suggested getting the latest version and reinstalling. Maybe not the problem but you have had no luck with your old version so why not. You need to go slowly and read carefully. The process is really 3 sections, bootloader fix, official HTC website unlock code process and then rooting itself. It takes a while but it's how everyone got there, some easier than others.
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?

Did you try closing HTC Sync Manager?
Make sure and exit completely, right click and exit in the system tray
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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2015467
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

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?"

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.

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.
Hi all,
I'm having some trouble with this, so I wanted to consolidate another thread into a main post. Here is my previous work. Any help would be appreciated or let me know if something doesn't make sense.
I'm using an LG Transpyre VS810PP with Android 5.1.1 currently, and a Windows 10 64-bit machine.
Put your phone in PTP mode... just found this. When it was on charge or MTP nothing would connect, but when it was in PTP adb.exe said "error: device offline", but on phone it asked if I wanted to trust the computer!!! Ohhhkay, now we're getting somewhere. Clicked trust and ran adb devices and there it is
See below... I found there are two versions of adb.exe I was using. PTP is not the problem, but adb.exe has to be the right one or it just says offline.
ALSO!! Get the newest driver pack from LG "LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1". The driver packs in the roots that I downloaded aren't new enough. After Windows got the right drivers I was able to see the COM ports properly.
I'm not sure if I have the root working currently. The "Newest root method V03" where you click on root.bat seems to pick the wrong COM port. When I try to do it manually with Send_command.exe using the other COM port it seems like the root process doesn't work properly. It eventually completes, but no info about what it did etc.
Update 2 : working on it again today and couldn't get it to connect. Ignore what I said about it needs to be in PTP mode... it does not appear that way, but if you use a certain version of adb.exe floating around it will not connect. Look for one that is around 800KB... the one I'm using is 815,104 bytes. The other is around 500KB.
It also seems to be necessary to set adb.exe to "Run as Administrator" in compatibility mode (I also set run as XP SP3 for good luck). I have also been using an elevated cmd window, so hopefully this stuff is all legit
Yesterday the device did not actually fully get rooted so I started over. I am going to try running the "root" script line by line rather than the whole thing at once because it gets stuck somewhere and there is no indication of what happened.

My SXZ5C (and SXZ1C) were not listed with 'fastboot devices'. So I installed this https://adb.clockworkmod.com/ and then (more or less) followed a guide :
1) Device manager
2) Right click on device (the android device with the yellow warning signal).
3) 'Update driver'
4) 'Browse my computer for drivers'
5) 'Let me pick from a list [...]'
6) Clicked the only one that appeared (don't remember it's name, because now my SXZ5C is installed as 'Android Composite ADB Interface' and not as whatever it was before I succeeded). Also possible it has nothing to do with the Universal ADB Drivers linked at the beginning, because I already installed a bunch of different stuff I don't remember.)
7) Then I could proceed as planed as my devices were now listed.
That is the guide I used : https://stackoverflow.com/a/35076765

since i usually use windows 10 for pretty much everything, i do need a sorta walkthrough on how to install the drivers on ubuntu, cause im not really up to date with this terminal stuff
Code:
sudo apt-get install adb fastboot
The package that comes with Ubuntu Mate is broken, adb-pair does not work, how you will get on I don't know, it may be better to use the official adb.
There are instructions for installing adb on Linux here
Using ADB and fastboot | LineageOS Wiki
wiki.lineageos.org
Just extract adb somewhere and add it to your $path
I'm using the adb version that came with Xubuntu since many years now without any problems.
