The instructions are pretty dumbproof. Perhaps you need to run the adb as an administrator?

So while trying to get HTC up and running I discovered that my flyer is no longer recognized by my computer. I plugged my HTC thunderbolt in and it was immiedetly recognized. The flyer was stock rom, rooted. Anything that I may be missing that could help? Also windows says its unrecognized

1. check if there is correct driver installed
2. check is USB cable is ok
3. use USB port from the back of your PC. front one sometimes it fail (happened to me several times))
4. check if you have "usb debugging" tick in "application - development"
could be one of these above situation....
Uninstalled and reinstalled driver got it to show up intermittently. My phone shows up everytime but the flyer only sometimes. I've tried every port with with multiple cables. I'm gonna see if it got better tonight. I'm trying to upgrade to 3.2 and don't want a brick because of a damaged micro usb port.
Thanks for the reply

have you tried to another computer?
If you have istalled latest adb and HTC driver and Java then i think it's like what happened to me, I couldn't get adb to work and my laptop seems like it didn't recognize my flyer..
nickiberli was kind enough and advised me to use his tool AndroidControl, you can find it in his sig..just navigate to the Android Control folder after you unpack it and start a command window from there and it will hopefully work..

What laptop should I buy for use with android (theming mostly) but also as a daily thing?
I need a new laptop, and my current one is really bad. The crap I am using atm is really stopping me from being able to do any of my own modding and id like to theme.
Dont hurt me, but I like mac laptops. But from what I can tell they make android a challenge...?

If you want to compile kernels or roms then you have to install ubuntu or any linux distro
Apps and stuff can be done on Windows
You might be better off getting a Mac and dual booting Mac and linux if money isn't an issue.

Yes. As I have the same OEM but different set up and it runs perfectly. And you will find more tools for Windows/linux then you will for a mac. Plus you can upgrade it later if you would like. This can't be done on a mac.

You mean it can't be done on the Mac OS. Apple laptops can dual and triple boot many operating systems, including Windows and linux.

You can still upgrade the ram and hard drive on the latest Macbook Pro(non retina). Apple has made it difficult/impossible to switch out the ram and hard drives in other models, but so have other companies that make laptops.

I can upgrade both ram and hard drive with only removing 3 screws. To be honest I have both a mac book pro and my windows PC and find myself reaching for my PC more then my MacBook.

I said most laptop companies have stopped the ability to switch out the ram and hard drive, not all of them. The macbook pro can do what your windows PC can do(in terms of upgrade ability, even though it takes 10 screws to access the ram + hard drive) and also run Mac OS X.
To be honest I have both a Mac Mini and a windows laptop, and find myself reaching for my Mac more than my windows laptop.
In the end it comes down to if you have the money to spend on a mac for only the OS. If your gonna use it for developing your gonna dual boot Linux either way

You could buy a mac and dual boot linux and ubuntu but I reccommed that you buy a desktop version beaches I used to build source on my MacBook Pro 2013 but the heat would go up from the 30 degrees to about 55 degrees. Then I got a Mac Pro 12 Core and although it was much more expensive I get my builds done much faster and I get to add more fans to keep the temperature down.

I rooted and unlocked the bootloader and am running the wonderful CM 10.1. A week ago all was well, but now I can't get my PC (one running 8 and one running win 7) to recognize the phone or its SD card. Last night I installed the new 4.00 HTC Drivers which are compatible with Win 8 but with no success. I loaded HTC Sync and it can't find the phone either. It does not show up in Windows Explorer as it did a week ago. I've tried different cables and different USB ports. Very curious.
Any thoughts out there from all you nice folks who are a lot smarter than this old duck?
Thanks!

I want to do the wire trick for my cdma evo 3d with Hboot 1.58 S-On .. Problem is I have a windows computer and the wire trick is only for Linux but I can't make those modifications to my computer to get Linux. Is there any other way to get S-Off so I can get jb roms?

You can burn an ubuntu (linux) live cd. It will boot ubuntu and run the program without changing your pc's OS. There is also an option to run the program in windows but it OS not recommend. Several who has done the windows way ended up bricked while none bricked with ubuntu.

I've been googling toys for days, all my drivers are up to date as far as I'm aware, the phone connects perfectly when booted normally if I just want to sync something, but when I'm in fastboot, I get to the get_identifier_token command and it just says waiting for device indefinitely.
Oh, apparently Windows doesn't recognize it in fastboot

Still no luck, probably gonna give up soon, the universe wants me to stay stock. Might as well have an iPhone .__.

Then your drivers are messed up. Fast boot works fine even on my other machine with Windows 8.

Which drivers should I look into? The HTC ones are freshly installed and work when the phones on normally, and USB works fine for everything else

Im having the same exact issue with my phone, and Im running windows 7.
Ive tried using both usb 2.0, and 3.0 ports, tried suing front, and back ports, USB debuggind is enabled, and I've tried with fastboot both enabled, and disabled.
I've tried removing ALL my android related drivers and reinstalling the HTC ones with no success.
Yet whenever I disconnect my phone while it;s in bootloader, it get a popup on my PC for a failed driver installing for a "HTC MTP DEVICE".
Had the same problem, Had to do THIS fix, and no problems anymore
