If HTC Sync is installed, make sure its not running and try again.

no, lol...never been installed on my PC. its not here.

Did you follow the instructions exactly? The "zerging root" step takes a little bit of time. Also, turn off fastboot if not already off. That's what I had to do.

On PC:
-No HTC Sync (you're ok there it seems)
-Disable/Pause any antivirus
-Uninstall and existing drivers you may have for the phone
-Install recommended drivers and java sdk/ADB (any of the guides should have links...cant find the particular one i used off hand though. I think the rEVO site has links too)
On phone:
-Fastboot off
-Enable usb debugging
-Set phone to charge only when plugged in
Thats all going from memory but i'd bet that error may be on account of either
1) conflicting drivers present
2) Antivirus preventing the file from doing its job
3) USB debug not enabled.
Hope this helps. Let us know what you run into. When I get home I'd be happy to share the link to the guide i used (had it favorited) and I can even zip up all the necessary files organized step by step) and send them to you to make it easier to find them all.
Keep us posted and GL!

my situation....please help

rooted via ubuntu and have recovery
i tried doing stuff in windows, but it wont install the drivers properly.
SO I NEED HELP!
what do i do to get this to work?
i want to be able to install 3rd party apps and get rid of att bloatware.
i have no idea where to start.
HELP!!!!!!!!!
thanx
ubuntu or windows...
download the Android SDK for Windows
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
install and download ONLY THE USB DRIVERS
open cmd window, connect usb cable, navigate to the <folder>\tools where you installed, ie. c:\android\tools
paste the following into a small batch file, call it anything you want dot bat,
ie. c:\android\tools\yourname.bat
---cut here--
cd\android\tools
adb remount
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
echo update secure set value = 1 where name = 'install_non_market_apps';|sqlite3 settings.db
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
pause 1
adb reboot
-- cut here--
ok i'll try right now
still must be missing something
what setting is my phone on when i plug it in? recovery? or just regular charge only or hard disk mode?
how do i get the usb drivers to work? when i try to install them is says "windows was unable to install your adb". is there something else i need on my pc?
when i run that .bat file it says a bunch of things, but basically says device not found.
please start from step #0.
there is no one place that has every single step we need to do.
it makes it next to impossible to get this to work.

I'm not sure I've ever seen this error come up before by anyone. Saying this is impossible isn't really true since several people have gotten it working, and the information is on these forums. The best thing to do would be to go to the IRC channel and get stepped through it. http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#liberatedAria
I'm not quite sure what's up with your ADB install, but you should download HTC Sync from the HTC site, because it includes a driver install. http://www.htc.com/us/support/aria-att/downloads/. Then go through the process in the post above. Your phone should be in the "Charge Only" mode when connected to the computer.

i know it's not impossible, it's just that usually when the people explaining the steps to accomplish this leave out steps that they think is common knowledge/sense, but is not to total noobs.
it would be nice to have a definitive step-by-step guide:
step 1 - root your phone (this was actually really easy with the ubuntu cd)
step 2 - go back to windows and download/install these specific programs . . . (i did not know i needed htc sync, the steps i saw said just to use the sdk and the usb drivers in there to set up my phone)
step 3 - enable debugging on phone, plug your phone into pc and use charge only. (don't we use recovery for anything, i've seen steps about having this open and using the mount /system to do stuff)
step 4 - get the adb usb drivers to install properly (i guess this is my main issue at the moment...is that what is causing the device not found error when i run the .bat file?)
step 5 - copy and paste code into notepad an save as a .bat file.
step 6 - run the .bat file (within cmd? double click on the file? does it matter?)
step 7 - ????
alternate step 2 through whatever - use the ubuntu cd to do everything... (???)

Run the bat file in the cmd window. Once the bat has successfully run you can unplug the phone and you'll be good to go.

so what is the point of the sdk...other than to have the tools folder to run that .bat? so i'm the only one that can't get the sdk usb drivers to work?
and by good to go, u mean i can install 3rd party apps?
how do i get rid of the the at&t bloatware?
There are other threads explaining how to install third party apps and remove ATT bloatware.
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
The problem with trying to do a step-by-step guide is that things like rooting, removing bloatware, and sideloading apps are all separate processes that require different steps and can be done in multiple ways. Some stuff requires you to be in recovery, some stuff doesn't, and other methods may require additional software. That's why there are specific separate threads that discuss them.
You've rooted your phone already, yay! Now you decide what you want to do next. Remove the bloatware? It's important that you don't lump everything together when trying to figure out what you need to do.
It seems like the first step you need to do is get ADB working and recognizing your phone when it's plugged in. ADB is necessary because it provides all the tools/commands necessary for us to interact with the phone through the command line. Windows is notoriously bad about the USB drivers. That's why the Ubuntu method was streamlined for people so they wouldn't have to deal with it. (Linux and Mac have no such usb driver issues.)

thanks for the reply.
yeah i rooted via the ubuntu disc, but then all the other steps people were telling me were using the sdk, getting the drivers, htc sync, yada yada. via windows. so thats the method i've been trying.
is there a step-by-step guide on how to allow 3rd party apps using the ubuntu disc? or... removing bloatware?
is it the same steps, but you just dont have to worry about the drivers?
The steps listed once you're in the SDK are actually the same regardless of what OS you're using.
So for Ubuntu install the SDK. Steps should be the same, just make sure you download the Linux version. Then you'd open a Terminal window (should be called Terminal in Ubuntu.) Then you should be able to use the same commands/steps you find in the other threads.
Since you've been having trouble getting your phone to connect the first thing to do is make sure SDK can actually see your phone. You should be able to open up your Terminal window, navigate to the SDK folder, connect your phone and then type 'adb devices' in the terminal window. It should then list out your phone as HTXXXXXXXX. X being some numbers and letters. If it does show that then you're on your way.
After that I'd go with removing bloatware and the steps listed in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735255

ok cool thanks a lot!
i didn't even think to go back to linux to try this stuff until today at work.
i'll check it out later tonight after i mow the lawn and eat dinner....priorities...
i tried in windows one last time. it actually found the htc sync drivers (i in/uninstalled htc snyc earlier...i guess thats what did it)
adb devices command finds my phone, but when i try and run that .bat file, it goes through a bunch of things, but basically says:
remount failed: operation not permitted
failed to copy...
permission denied
all those types of things. then it says to hit enter and then it restarts my phone
???
did u try installing HTC sync connect phone to htc sync, then unistall the htc sync software usb drivers should stay behind

maybe i missed it, after you did the mount command did you do the read/writes permissions change?

[Q] root

this is regarding captainkreks root method. i couldnt even get past the first path input, i entered C:\sdk\platform-tools and C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk. and i just says please make sure you entered the right path. i was wondering why its saying this
Probably because you don't have adb set up properly. Download something called adb for dummies it will correctly set up adb and then install your drivers. I suggest using the easyroot method if your not experienced with adb.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
That's most likely not the path of your sdk. Its probably more like C:/ Program files (x86)/android/android-sdk/.....(x86) if your a 64 bit computer if your 32 bit then there is no (x86)
It all depends on where you put your sdk and what its called....
Sent from my Thunderbolt using XDA Premium App
i installed adb for dummies and i now have the correct path but in the easy root when it checks for the firmware version it says device not found and doesnt display the current firmware version on the phone. I have yet to downgrade the RUU but since the app cant find the phone im assuming i dont have the drivers installed yet, but im having trouble figuring out how to install the drivers. i know the adb file came with the google usb driver but i dont know what to do with it
Applications>Development> Enable USB Debugging make sure that is checked
it was enabled before. but i disabled it and unplugged and tried again and im having the same problem. ?

download the usb drivers from here http://www.mediafire.com/?s4wamt44hlfaqa3
Unzip that and place it in your sdk folder for safe keeping.
In your device manager you will prob see an exclamation mark. install the driver.
Nothing is appearing in my device manager. I have looked around and havnt really been able to find anything that can explain how to find a device on the manager. I just need a link to a good guide around adb
If adb for dummies worked then your good to go. You need to place the phone when you hook into the computer in charge only mode. Try this and report back adb I don't think is your problem but phone driver in assuming its not showing up in Your device manager so do the formentioned step of placing in charge only.

I know when I was rooting my phone I had to enable/disable USB Debugging to get the root to work. I don't know if it was something specific to my own TB, or if it's something that is unique to rooting the TB is general.
I don't know about all that script stuff, I was going to go that route and downloaded htc sync, adb, and all the drivers but chickened out before going through with it.
But last night I followed through with all the step by step instructions the long way that is detailed out on Android Central. Not because it was easier, but because it was step by step and was easy to understand and had all the correct files to download and rename etc..
in actuality it was easy, just a little time consuming with big files to download, the actual work was easy.
Justin
this is what my the root app says after the first step when i pasted the sdk path into it
SDK Directory found
Checking build.prop ro.product.version
error: device not found
if the number above ends in 605.6 or 605.9 then you can root,
IF NOT THAN YOU CANNOT ROOT USING THIS METHOD!!!
do you wish to begin
i dont see any number because when it attempts to check the product version my device is not found. i have adb for dummies installed and the correct google usb drivers the phone is set to usb debugging and to charge only usb connection so im not really sure what the problem is. i have downloaded the RUU listed on rom.galaxysense and renamed it to PG05IMG.zip but im not sure how to actually downgrade the RUU and even if i can manage to get that done the device is not showing up sooooooo... i apologize for the massive amount of text and the slight retardation expressed in the post i just hit a block at the 2nd step lol

[SOLVED] Problem installing USB drivers for ADB

So I set out to root my phone and am in the process to trying to install the USB drivers so i can use ADB. At first, windows installed it's own drivers, which obviously didn't work. I tried to update the drivers in the device manager to the ones located in the google-usb directory, but it said i already had the latest installed.
Next i decided to uninstall the current drivers completely and start over. I then told it to install the drivers that were located the in the google-usb directory. It said no drivers were found. They were obviously there, so i manually gave it the "android_winusb.inf" driver as per the cyanogen mod wiki page instructions on installing the drivers. It then said that "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems."
I'm new to this so thanks for any help at all. I really want to learn my way around this kind of stuff.
Try it with your phone in mass storage mode with debugging on.
Still no luck. I've had it in debugging mode and charge only. Switched to disk drive mode and no change
Just download HTC Sync and use the drivers it provides. Should work for using adb.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Now it can't even find HTC Sync on my computer... It's installed and i just used it the other day. Maybe it's something to do with the fact that i uninstalled the drivers it had? It can't communicate now?
This is what I used, worked great.
This might help also, he goes over installing the drivers a few minutes in.
Hope it works out for you.

You're more than welcome. You might re-title the post with [Solved] at the beginning so anyone with the same problem know to look here.
Just wanted to mention here that this was noted a while back and the CM Wiki will be updated with an easy way to correct this for Thunderbolt as well as other devices soon.

ADB Install

In reading carrett's root, unlock and install guide as well as thecubed's Project FreeGee thread, it's clear that adb needs to be installed on my phone. Unless it's hidden somewhere, I believe that I need to install it as well as install adb drivers on my laptop. As far as the phone goes, Google play has wifi apps, but I can't find a tethered app to install. In addition, after a couple hours of searching, I don't find adb software or drivers to install on my laptop.
I'd prefer to not brick my phone on 1st attempt, so I pose the following questions:
1) Am I completely confusing things or am I correct in thinking that I need to explicity install adb both on my phone and laptop
2) assuming that some sort of adb install must happen, where do I find the installation files?
I think that I've finally found the answers to my questions: install the ADT bundle which includes adb. I'm downloading and installing it as I write this.
If a mod wants to delete this thread, please do.

dude link it?
Uh, ADB support is built into Android.
You need to have USB Debugging turned on for some stuff to work though. In Settings>Developer Options>(check USB debugging box).
Then ADB SHOULD be installed with the LG drivers (if not I think the FreeGee download has it built in).
And if it is not, you can always install the Android SDK (HERE).
I know it is in there.
(Sorry, my memory is fuzzy, I've had ADB on my laptop for a few years now... not sure where I got it)

USB Device Not Recognized - Windows 8

So I have a Samsung Vibrant(just got it recently) and I'm having problems when i connect it to the computer. It gives me an USB device not recognized on my windows 8 computer. I have spent all morning searching and reinstalling drivers and trying my old pc and new cables and i found out that my old windows 7 computer with 4GB of ram and an overloaded hard drive will detect my device the problem there is it not my main computer and i dont want to have to connect all the vga cables boot it up connect mouse and ect to use this computer just to be able to copy files, and do other things from my computer to my phone I dont know why my main computer dell inspiron windows 8 will not work when it was a couple of days ago when i had a problem with conectivity and had to flash back to stock but now it wont connect. could someone help me? Here's a list of things i've tried
installing kies
installing adb again
aoi tool and then drivers
a bunch of diffrent drivers found on the fourms
diffrent usb cable
i would like to be able to do it on my main computer but its not working if someone could help that would be great
also please dont hate on me for having windows 8 jk i dont care :good:
I'd have to say that your drivers are all scrambled. Look up "android SDK" here on xda and install that for a bigger variety of drivers. Or just download Google's USB driver and manually install it through device manager which always works for me. Windows 8 is new and very complicated.

Android SDK is installed in the main drive right? local disk c?
You have to click the folder (usb_driver) and then click update.
In the android sdk folder there should be and exe file called SDK manager. There you will be able to download all the drivers for your current android version also the latest Google drivers and SDK tools etc.
I was stuck on this process for a long time because it allways works different for everybody. Just keep me posted on what you do I'm more than glad to help.

So what exactly happens when you click update? What does it say?
Is your PC up to date? (update wise)
Do you have the the drivers for the phone itself like samsung drivers?
And did you try rebooting your PC after installing your drivers? <-- that is important. You should always reboot after install or uninstalling drivers otherwise you'll end up scrambling them.
From the pictures it shows you have the drivers but I'd also try going deeper than usb_driver, try clicking on i386 or amd64.

OK make sure there are no HTC drivers on your PC. When you hook up your phone does USB storage work or anything like that?
Check those out and then I want you to go to Google, download pdanet latest version via pc (dont install yet) and go to the play store and install on your phone turn on USB debugging and the install non market apps and hook your phone up to the computer. Then install pdanet via PC and see if that works. HTC drivers get in the way of Samsung's BTW.

I want you to uninstall all your Samsung drivers(not android SDK) under control panel/uninstall programs. If you see something like Samsung kies definitely uninstall it. Reboot your computer and follow this guide for windows 8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555
After this if it doesn't work I'd recommend pulling out your old computer for android modding lol. I'll still look up some threads for your problem. Let me know what's going on after that. Make sure when you follow that guide your phone can not be plugged in the computer. And when you plug your phone into the computer after everything is done and after you reboot your computer for the second time, USB debugging has to be off and when phone is done unplug and turn back on USB debugging and plug back in and wait for that. Adb should work.
[Edit] you can also try running your drivers in windows 7 compatibility. Sorry I couldn't help much.

After this if it doesn't work I'd recommend pulling out your old computer for android modding lol. I'll still look up some threads for your problem. Let me know what's going on after that. Make sure when you follow that guide your phone can not be plugged in the computer. And when you plug your phone into the computer after everything is done and after you reboot your computer for the second time, USB debugging has to be off and when phone is done unplug and turn back on USB debugging and plug back in and wait for that. Adb should work.
[Edit] you can also try running your drivers in windows 7 compatibility. Sorry I couldn't help much.

I think I know what the problem is. Make sure you uninstall all the previous drivers, then have the correct drivers ready.
What you have to do is to disable driver signature enforcement.
Step 1. Go to the right bottom corner of the desktop and wait for the side menu to appear. When it's there click on the gear icon with the title "Settings".
Step 2. Now click on the entry "More PC Settings", then click on the entry "General".
Step 3"Restart now" (under "Advanced start up ") and click it.
Step 4. Now click "Troubleshoot", then "Advanced Options" and after that click "Windows Start up Settings".
Step 5. Click on "Restart" and wait, then on the next screen press F7.
You will now reboot, and try now to install the drivers (by manually selecting the folder in device manager).
I'm not sure what is the correct drivers for you.
But try this. It's still worth a shot.
