I have been trying to get andriod sdk to recognize my phone so i can do logcats and all. I have installed the SDK and also the proper java packages as well. I followed the guide in the andriod hacking and development and still cannot get it to work at all. I dont know if i am missing a step or not hooking phone up right. I do have debugging mode on and everything just a little confused on the proper way and thanks for the help in advance

Do you have the correct drivers??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929
usb debugging checked
on pc, go to start, and type "cmd", press enter for a command prompt
do the following to get to your tools location (different than this)
cd /Users/yourusername/android-sdk/tools

type:
Code:
adb devices
you should see a unique # identifying your phone. If so, you got it working.
I followed the instructions in this thread and opened the file to confirm the changes (0x54c) was there, but my Sony S1 still isn't showing up in my Android Device Chooser when I run my applications. Rebooted computer, Eclipse, Tablet...
If I can't get it to show up, I'll be sending it back for a Galaxy 10.1, so bit of a time window here. Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Sorry for posting this here, but I'm not allowed to comment in the dev threads yet.
So I made it to the Sony Android Developer Program site and download and downloaded the development kit. Followed instructions in the very poorly made guide... no dice.
Talked with Sony support who said I should talk to Eclipse. At my wits end here, might just send it back and get a Galaxy Tab.
Those of you who have gotten the Tablet to connect with Eclipse - what version of OSX are you on? I'm on Lion and it seems some others have had similar issues since upgrading.
Ok, so I finally got it working! After adding 0x054c to your adb_usb.ini I had to kill ADB and restart it. However ./adb kill-server and then trying to ./adb start-server was giving me errors and refused to start. I had to do ./adb nodaemon server ADB_TRACE=ALL
After this, the tablet is FINALLY showing up in Eclipse.
Tried ViperMod, SparkyRoot with no success.
SparkyRoot fails at stage 2 as Asus Backup fails every time...
With ViperMod i can't see the device when connected to MacBook Air [./ADB devices - no devices listed]
SO... either looking for a way to get something like SparkyRoot to work or tips on how to get TFP visible with Mac OSX Lion OR something new.
Please devs help a man out!!
I also use a Mac and have rooted just fine using ADB Push.
If it's not detecting your device it sounds like you haven't enabled USB Debug Mode in Settings -> Developer. I'd double check that.
Thanks - yes tried all the usual stuff - must have read 100's of posts in case I'm missing something silly.
Tried on Mac OSX Lion - MacBook Air and Mac Mini
Mac OSX Tiger - old iBook
and even built a VM on Mac Mini running XP [scuppered there as couldn't get ADB drivers to work]
I wouldn't mind if I was fumbling around with the wrong commands in Terminal or something, but i'm not even getting the damned thing to be seen on any PC/Mac except as a sync device or camera.
Please please somebody find a true 'one stop root' that doesn't need tethering or ADB.
I really want to get bootloader unlocked, CWM and CM9 on this thing - and unleash the real potential.
trying to use SparkyRoot but need help please, asus prime TransformerTF201
Trying to use the SparkyRoot but getting message in step 1 saying exploit not working, then step 2 fails to backup. Am i supposed to have installed other stuff first?, or how can i get this to work
Just root manually through adb, it's easy enough if you know how to read.
still need specifics

ok, i can do that :-> , but can you give me a specific link or directions, an it needs to be very specific breakdown of directions, i'm a total newbie, and don't even know what you mean by adb!! Yes there are still some of us like that who exist out there, :-€ but can follow a very laid out step by step procedure. Please don't say search cause then so much comes up an i'm just boggled! :9)
Root method for windows or Mac?
Is there a root method for the .15 build available for windows or Mac? I do not have linux. I have a Chinese machine and want to install the proper android market. I have found the instructions of what to do once the machine is rooted, but cannot get to root itself to work. Tried using Primetime, but that only works upto .11 from what I can tell.
Cheers for any replies,
David
Hey i have the note i717 and i run on a mac. I wanted to root it but no one seems to have any info on doing it on a mac. Help please thanks
You need to run Odin3 for mac. Google for that application and make sure your mac recognizes your phone, then come back here for the next steps.

did you install the sdk and adb in linux? you might need to configure some things
Here's what I did on 12.04:
sudo apt-get install adb && sudo apt-get install fastboot
This should install the proper programs. Open up a terminal and type 'adb devices' to see if your phone is there. Fastboot has to be run as root(sudo). No need for USB drivers on Linux.
Thanks guys i did both those prior and adb recognizes it and if i fastboot devices it works but when trying to get my token to unlock bootloader it just says waiting on device any suggestions? I got it to work once but ivcant figure out how to copy just the token not the stuff in parenthesis lol. I know its something stupid im drawing a blank on and im gonna face palm when told how to do it lol.
