ADB Shell "Error: device not found" - Viewsonic ViewPad 7 & Variants

Trying to follow lakehousetech's guide Viewpad 7 Backup, Root & Recovery guide, and Super One Click 1.7 basically refuses to work, always hangs on "Waiting on device", using two good known cables and two good known USB ports (front and back).
Found out about the Gingerbreak 1.2 apk, managed to jailbreak and get Super User installed.
So as I move onto the Stock Backup step in the guide, I need to run ADB Shell. So I open up cmd.exe and navigate to the C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools folder and launch "ADB Shell", it starts the server, but ultimately gives me a "Error: device not found".
Are there drivers I need to install?
Do I need this busybox app installed?
Seemed to need them in rooting my HTC Doubleshot (MyTouch4gSlide). What am I doing wrong here?

you need to run adb shell from the drive letter youre pc gives when youre viewpad is logged in mine is g:\ thats the virtual cdrom drive from youre viewpad.
open cmd
cd g:\
adb shell
check if the drive letter is correct with youre system then it`s ok and youre gonne be fine
you need to run the setup too when youre plug youre device on youre pc youre getting a sync program but it also installs de driver just leave the program running in the background dont do anything just let it minimazed hope you get it to work

Ok, i'll copy the ADB.exe file to the H:\ drive on the phone, then use the Windows command line interface to manually navigate to that drive and launch ADB from that folder. Is there anything else I should copy to that folder, other than the image and clockwork file?
There is no virtual CD rom drive letter asigned, just a flash drive letter. Also, what is the setup? There is no setup.exe on the phone drive letter to launch.
PS
Thanks for the advice.

Again, this is not a CD-Rom drive letter, its just some 2.472 gb partition. My Viewpad does not create a CD-Rom drive or image when I connect it to my PC (Windows7 64bit). In device manager, I can clearly see two "VS Viewpad 7e USB Device" listings, but only one of them generates a drive letter. I can see another drive partition in Disk Management, but cannot mount it like I can do other SATA drives.

mine is a auto run setup when i connect the pad also in the drive mine creats there is a adb exe i dont have to copy it dont mount the viewpad for file transfer what youre showing me is the sd card it suppose to show a virtue drive when you plug in the device without mountin it on youre pad
But what kind of do you got the viewpad 7 or viewpad 7e for 7e there is no rom no cwm

So brand new, out of the box, you plug your viewpad into your PC and presto, creates a virtual cd drive and ADB is pre-loaded ready to run shell?
I have the Viewpad 7e, running Android 2.3.1, Kernel version 2.6.35.7-svn ([email protected] #58).
I suppose emailing Viewsonic in regards to getting Google Marketplace installed is pointless, so I might just have to return this product. The fact that I cannot boot into recovery mode tells me this device is defective.

Yup, worked like a charm. Marketplace is installed and working properly, now I can work on removing some un-needed apps. Thanks so much!

Ok, ive managed to get Marketplace installed, but its like every 4th app wont install and its not because of file space.
I flat out need to install clockwork recovery mod, but cant due to adb shell never finding my device.
Yes I have my device rooted (using gingerbreak 1.20 as super one click never worked)
Yes I have USB Debuging mode enabled.
Yes I have Super user permissions working.
Yes I have the latest android sdk installed, which comes with adb
Yes I have a known working USB cable (dont have any problems transfering files)
Yes device manager does detect my tablet, Android Composite ADB Interface.
Using Windows 7 and the Viewpad 7e tablet.
Sure I dont need to install special drivers for this? Every time I google "Adb shell error device not found", I get a dozen solutions saying to download specific device drivers.

hello,
I'm tired to load android market in my kindle fire. i search for the solution in google. i followed all the steps

[Q] Install apps to sd by default on Non Rooted Phone

Hi,
I have a Spice Mi-270 dual sim android 2.2 phone.Searching on the internet I came across an article where the procedure for installing the apps by default to sdcard is possible for non rooted phones.I tried it but when I type "adb devices" I get a blank list under list of devices attached.My phone came with the usb drivers, I have installed that.Tried installing Google USB driver package,revision 4.When the phone is plugged in get the message on the phone "USB Debugging started".Windows device manager shows "Android Phone" > Android Composite ADB Interface.Still my device is not detected with the "adb devices" command.I am using winxp pro sp3 32bit.Please Guide!
(If I have posted in the wrong section please inform me where to post)
I probably won't be helping. But on my un-rooted HTC Sensation i just have an app called app2sd. After i installed an app, if it's supported, i copy it to sd card.
Can't you just use that and save the hassle?
try this apps2sd
I have already installed the apps2sd but as said one can move the apps to sd if and only if supported by the app.Besides Android 2.2 by default provides the option to supported apps.How do I change the default install path to sd without rooting?
sounds like u need to root it and add the a2sd+ scripts OR root, install rom with a2sd+ and partition sd card accordingly.

Sorry doOb but I am not looking at rooting my phone but use the option
adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2.
Why not root your phone? At the end or the day you still can unroot it. It's not like you flash to a different Rom and lost your stock Rom.
As far as I know your running froyo you already have move app to SD at the manage application in setting. There are free market app that can help you to move apps to SD with simple clicks without going to setting with the slow loading.
I'm afraid there are no default to app to SD unless you root your Rom and flash a2sd script like darktermor to make the whole process default. Better still, you also need to partition your card with an ext partition for it to work.
By the way... You should be able to adb shell your phone with a proper setup from your pc. You need to look for adb shell howto.
Sounds like your doing it from the wrong folder at cmd if your using windows. Try start cmd from the folder with adb.exe or set your system path to include the folder with adb.exe. I'm not with a pc now, I can't direct you. You have to look for it on what I mean.
By the way, can you also post the link for the article you found?
I have friends that can't root their phone. E.g HTC wildfire s

Sounds like the original issue was the pc not seeing the device....I know this may be elementary, but do you have it in "charge only" mode and not in the disk drive mode?
"Sounds like your doing it from the wrong folder at cmd if your using windows. Try start cmd from the folder with adb.exe or set your system path to include the folder with adb.exe." - pysionx
I am starting cmd from the folder with adb.exe that laocated in platform-tools.If I was not doing so I would get the error " 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file." and on typing adb devices in the cmd prompt I would not get the answer "list of devices"

If the pc does not see the device how do I get in Windows device manager showing "Android Phone" > Android Composite ADB Interface.

I do not have it in "charge only" mode but in the disk drive mode, USB debugging started is the message received in the notification area.

Google "Spice driver" I'll find a link if you can't. Windows is odd with its drivers sometimes. I remember the first time I ever used SDK I had to remove the default drivers and install the one from HTC but recently just installing the driver was good enough and I've only used adb and not the SDK. just a suggestion.

I found THIS which sounds like it's an issue with the phone and maybe not the same Android OS that everyone else has....just what I read. Happy Googling my friend. Sounds like it's a cool device, just not quite up to par with adb.
I do have the drivers of my mobile Spice Mi-270 which was shipped along with the phone. The drivers files are of similar names with that of the google usb drivers for android except for the file versions.
Thanks pfroyjr for the link.It seems it is the problem with the phone itself as I am not the only one facing the problem with adb comand.

Best advice is stay active searching for an answer...someone will eventually figure it out
I think it can be done with the help of adb .
Just run command from the folder having adb.exe file after connecting your phone in USB Debugging Mode.
"adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2"
YOu can change it to default by the following command.
"adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0"
Type the commands without quotes....
Hope it helps!!!

Try to install universal root/z4root/any other rooting app and shell commander in your phone then root your device temporarily (temporary root means root will be removed when you reboot)with universal root asn then in shell commander type the commands
su
pm SetInstallLocation 2
and then you can unroot your phone

I installed universal androot and rooted the phone.
Instead of shell commander I installed Move2SD Enabler.The move2sd had three radio buttons Auto, Internal and External.Initially it displayed the radio button on Auto.I selected External and clicked apply.Now it shows External.Then I unrooted the phone.In Apps2SD I found many apps that were listed under phone only under movable apps.Few questions do arise
1.If I restore to factory defaults will the installation to external storage be resetted?
2.Whenever I Install new apps it gets installed in the phones internal storage and the I have to move to sd.Why is that so?
3.Even after moving to the sd some amount remains in the phone internal storage.why?
4.Can I check using shell commander if the install location has changed? what is the command? Do I have to root the phone again to use the command?

Restoring factory default settings will reset default install location to auto.
Since you used move to sd enabler it only makes all apps movable to sd but doesn't move them automatically.
System apps and Those apps that don't support app to sd by default can't be completely moved to sd card
Yes, you can check using shell commander but you need to riot you phone to use the command.
pm getInstallLocation
(returns default install location)
pm setInstallLocation 2

[Q] Viewpad 7 adb usb driver

Hi, I am looking for usb driver for viewpad 7 for using adb. Can anybody provide and link or pointers from where can I get the same.
Thanks,
Dang
There's no "real" driver...
Just connect your Viewpad 7 to your PC.
A window pops up where you can select "setup.exe" - select it.
Then a few drivers get installed (perhaps a restart is necessary)
Seems like the Viewpad 7 has a virtual drive which gets mounted when connecting it to a PC - it's shown up as virtual CD-drive for me under Windows XP and Windows 7.
PS: The drivers are also located on the virtual CD-drive in a directory.
Make sure you run the file from the virtual optical drive if you have autorun disabled.

I always open the Sync tool then (do nothing, no sync or so).
That's the only way my Windows 7 PC recognizes the tablet via ADB.
I have been doing that as well, but it's just annoying to have this extra drive that is of no use and just sits there taking up a drive letter.
Stupid question, ive never used adb, but does this mean i dont have to download it because already cames on that virtual drive, and so i only need to install it ?
Now i manage to install the drivers.
I go to the command line in windows and write :
adb usb
adb devices, and get this:
List of devices attached
FM6120420141
Then i do,
adb shell, and nothing happens.
Ive tried several commands and nothing works, what m i doing wrong here ?

Solved driver issue on windows7
Hi,
I was facing issue in connecting viewpad7 to windows7 machine. Even synchronization steps were failing. Manuall attempt to run "adb.exe devices" were unable to detect the device. Here is my steps that I did for rooting the device with SuperOnceClick(SOC)1.7-
1. Initially driver were not detected/installed on windows7. Only CDROM displaying setup was displayed and clicking "Setup.exe" is not installing drivers. Copy the All files on computer and say folder name is "v7Setup".
2. To Install drivers, Connect Tablet/Phone to windows7, select "USB Tethering in tablet" (This is needed to detect devices by Windows7), in windows7:check the "Device Manager", it can show "Others" two devices: HSUSB & RNDIS. Update the driver for both devices from "v7setup/RUT/*" folders.
3. Now start SOC1.7 and select "rageagainstthecage" and click root. It may wait at "Running rageagainstthecage..." message in SOC log window. Then disconnect the Tablet after waiting for 1-2 minute and connect again after beep sound from windows7. Here, again I needed to install the drivers as mentioned in step2. SOC1.7 will proceed and finally in poup message, it will ask to "push su" files. And Done.

Automated ADB Driver Installer for Sony Tablet S, P, and Xperia Tablet S

Based off the work of thecubed over in the Nook Color forums, I've created the equivalent ADB Driver installer for the Sony Tablets including the new Xperia Tablet S.
thecubed's original thread for the Nook Color: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910008
The installer is fully automated and negates the need to install the Android SDK or edit any files.
It has been tested under Windows 7 x32 and x64 and should also work for Vista and XP.
========================================
As of 2012 November, Windows 8 requires you to disable driver signing and MANUALLY install the drivers.
Method A:
Open an ADMINISTRATOR Command Prompt:
To disable driver signing, copy/paste the following commands:
bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
[RESTART]
(on your desktop you'll see the watermark: "Test mode'" until you re-enable driver signing).
Re-enable driver signing:
bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
[RESTART]
Method B:
From the Metro Start Screen, open Settings,
Click "Change PC Settings".
Click "General".
Scroll down, and click "Restart now" under "Advanced startup".
Click "Troubleshoot".
Click "Advanced Options".
Click "Startup Settings".
Click [Restart].
Choose "Disable driver signature enforcement" (Usually #7)
Install device drivers either through the automated tool or manually.
========================================
(If you're running Windows XP, you may also need to manually install the MTP [media transfer protocol] drivers located here: http://android.mrboot.de/index.php?/archives/6-Sony-Tablet-S-MTP-driver-for-3G-version.html Thanks to cbuckmiller]
It should be quick and painless for 95% of users but if the your tablet still shows up as an unknown device, I've also included step-by-step instructions to manually install the drivers (README.txt).
ADB is also bundled in the ZIP file so you can run "adb devices" as well as any other commands.

Hi, I had to revert back to xp 32bit from w7(dont ask why), problem is Im having problems getting adb sorted. I plug my tablet in and I get a triple ping(!!) instead of the usual 2. Anyways, in device manage it comes up with an explaination mark. Ok i install the automated drivers and xp still does not install them. I make the wizard find the drivers but it reports that drivers not installed.
I feel like a right noob, window 7 was so easy.

Looked at above and it just gives aload of writing.
Confirming this also works for ICS updated devices.
I keep getting "error: device not found" when starting ADB (debugging is enabled). Using Android SDK adb is ok.
Also, why does the .ini have " " instead of normal spaces? I don't know if it causes problems, but I took them out when manually installing. After that, there was only the composite device listed, which I installed.

I have managed to get MTP installed but the ADB installer does not want to play ball in windows xp. When click "have disk" and ok windows says "The specified location does not contain information about your hardware."
Anyone help me out?
---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------
Right I'm going to sack this off because I will end up bricking the devices if I carry on messing about with it.
I've installed the Automated ADB Driver Installer onto my PC. I want to remove the software. How do I go about doing that?
I guess I will just put the S1 into a draw until the official ICS is released.
Thanks.
Hello me again.
I think I know what I did wrong. I'm going to watch a few more videos on how to install adb then I will try it again. I really want ICS badly and I will do what it takes to get it.
Wish me luck.

How to install an INF file: http://www.rm.com/Support/TechnicalArticle.asp?cref=TEC14642
The file needs to be saved as an INF. You can do that directly from your browser by saving the file.
Then right-clicking on it and going to install.
Can I root my xperia tab whit these 2 things?

Hey,
i installed these drivers and in my device Manager it shows "Android Composite ADB Interface" so it should work. But when I try to run adb devices it just tells me "List of devices attached" but there is no. A few months ago ADB worked and I was able to do a backup with ADB. USB-Debugging is enabled. Does anybody know what could be wrong?!

Uninstall the device and check the "Delete existing files/drivers."
Restart, and try the installation again.
If there was an existing ADB driver from another Android device, it may not install correctly since it can't append to the existing Android ADB support INF.
does not work with windows 8

adb problems

I can get adb to run but it will not find my device. when I run adb devices I get adb is not recognized. Ive been messing with this for days now. Please help. It worked when I had htc sync installed.
Try installing HTC device drivers then enable debugging and just plug the phone in and if the driver missing it will install. Then unplug jump into fastboot and plug it in again and wait. Again if the driver is missing, it will install

Did you install adb through the sdk manager? Make sure the USB drivers are selected to install also

I did install with SDK but I don't see anything about drivers.

HTC drivers on that post
I have the right driver but I think my path screwed up. When I go into cmd it shows c:\documentsandsetting\sony. I have sdk on the root of the c drive.

type cd .. until the file path says c:/> then cd directory name here
where am I typing this in cmd? Sorry
yes, in terminal you use cd (change directory) to navigate the file system. cd .. goes up one directory and cd (directory) navigates to specified directory
When I get into adb I typed adb devices and it says adb is not recognized as an internal command.
What is it you are trying to do exactly

What directory are you in? If you're at c:/> you aren't in the right directory, type dir to get a list of files and folders and find the folder you need, then cd name of directory

No, at this point I am not very familiar with lazy panda, I understand the underlying process but I have not had any actual experience with it

download all in one toolkit and use it to erase cache and install recovery. you must be booted to bootloader with fastboot usb at top if it says hboot at the top press power once and it will say fastboot usb

I've already erased the cache through fastboot but its still bootlooping
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
probably need to reflash the rom. erasing cache in fastboot is only to get you into recovery when it doesnt load. if you have already flashed the rom and its bootlooping wiping cache and davlik sometimes helps

ok ok guys dont panic, this is as easy as pie, boot your phone into recovery and connect to pc, then adb push a new rom to /data/media/ and then install the rom you just pushed.

excuse you could be more specific about the adb push, how to do because every time I put some command with adb in fastboot I get an error that ADB is not a recognizable command

ok since you have unlocked your bootloader i assume you have full htc drivers and android sdk installed, if you do open a command window in the platform tools folder and type the following command: adb push (exact name of the rom you want to push) /data/media/ and you will notice that the cursor jumps down and nothing happens but in about 4-7 (depending on the size of the rom) you will get a message in the cmd that says x bytes transferred. Very important make sure you move the rom you want to push to the platform tools folder and that you type the exact name of it in the command followed by .zip
here is an example command: adb push TrickDroid.zip /data/media/
PM me to add you on skype or something to help you realtime.

ok bro another thing, make sure you are opening the cmd in the correct folder, the correct folder should have the adb file in it, it's in the folder called platform-tools, just press shift+right click in platform tools and select open command promt window here and use the adb devices command.
