So here is my story; i was planning on selling my prime today. I plan to meet the buyer in an hour. I round up all the accessories and everything. My last step was to completely wipe the device. I wipe everything from cwm touch version. I go to reboot and all it did was reboot into cwm. I have searched up and down to find out how i can get adb to recognize my prime but nothing works at all.
I have the correct drivers installed using universal naked drivers. My computer (windows 7) sees that i have android adb interface. When i go into my cmd prompt and type "adb devices" nothing at all is recognized. When i type "adb shell" it says "error: device not found".
I have tried absolutely everything to get the adb working but it cant seem to see my prime.
If anyone at all can help that would be great. I've heard that manually installing the SDK works but i'm so new to this stuff and would appreciate if anyone could send me a link.
Thank you.
I had the same issue, the universal naked drivers adb didn't work for me, I found an ADB.ZIP earlier in the thread and then it was all smooth sailing. Should fix it for you!

was it adb.rar? because i tried that one too and it did not work.
I managed to use the vipermod tool to get my pc to recognize the prime by adb. then i went into a different cmd window and followed the instructions in the OP. everything works like a dream now.

Here's the situation: Couldn't get retainroot working on previous occasion on my 64-bit system. Installed SDK on 32bit Win 7 system and was able to use both beforeupdate.bat and afterupdate.bat. Now...when trying to use any of the MODS available, adb cann't recognize my device and I get error messages like "psneuter failed to execute properly". I've done my searches on this subject in XDA but i don't think anyone else's experience is the same since the Atrix is a bit different. This is the first time i've had so much issues with adb. If anyone has any clue whats going on. I've all but given up on this device. I'm 14 days in with it and all headaches.

Make sure that you've mounted USB as "None", you can do so by pulling down the notification bar. Hope that helps!

make sure usb debugging is ON, set usb connection to NONE. I'm assuming you have sdk installed in c:\ of computer. Then go to cmd prompt and type: "cd c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools" [enter]
Then, type: "adb devices" [enter]
Should detect device, or something is wrong.
Hell, just go install the CWM and install the mods that way. A lot of them are updated to now work with CWM. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1019143
I can't seem to work ADB or anything like that, I've read most of the threads on here and tried to follow numerous tutorials and this is my first android phone.
I've enabled USB Debugging, however when I run install.bat with superuser.apk in the same folder it just tells me that there is no device found, not sure what to do
-thanks
I had a similar issue. Easiest thing to do is install omega .
Make a back up of your stock Rom first then flash omega without wiping your data.
It has full root built in

Your problem is you need to run adb start-server in a terminal in the sdk/platform folder.
It needs to start so the install bat can talk to the phone.
Had the same issue yesterday in my case there was a strange problem with the drivers. All was installed fine i could see ADB device in device manager however adb did not se the device.
Finally installed kies on a computer that never had anything installed like mobile phones etc than run install.bat and all was ok.it took around 15 sec to find the phone and drivers and finish all the rooting operations.
Still dont know what kind of a driver conflict is it...Some report that reinstalling kies helps but not in my case.
If u can try on another computer.
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 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
---------- Post added at 06:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 AM ----------
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.

I was able to get mine working with the combo of
1. uninstalling any HTC sync or sync manager and the HTC BMP USB Driver. Basically anything HTC.
2. Install HTC sync. Not sync manager. Go to the HTC support page and you'll see both listed. If you go to the specific phone support page it might not be there. (One S doesn't have the sync program, just sync manager iirc.)
3. Download PDAnet. When installing, It'll give a warning that you already have drivers installed and ask if you want to fix them or leave as is. I chose it to fix and it went though its process and I had working drivers after that.
I think this was already suggested before. I going back and giving thanks wherever due after this post. (On the mobile app right now)
Other easy way if you're using a One S is to download Hasoon2000's All-On-One Toolkit. He's updated the drivers for windows 8. I haven't tried it yet as mine are working so haven't had the need. I would assume his tool for any of the other phones he supports would have the updated drivers too.

And the phone is recognized fine when in regular mode. Though, whenever I reboot the phone into the Bootloader using adb, it restarts into the fastboot, but it doesn't change to "Fastboot USB" and shortly after I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" on my PC and it saying something about it malfunctioning. So I get stuck on "Waiting for device" when trying out this command "fastboot oem get_identifier_token."
Any ideas? I'm trying to unlock the bootloader and root so that I can install custom ROMs and kernels.
Hey there! Sorry my fix didn't work for you.
My question is, are you running windows 8 or 8.1? The reason I ask is because the 8.1 update has broken fastboot apparently. I don't remember the last time I tried on my computer to see if fastboot still works or not since I updated to 8.1.
If you are running 8.1 windows then the guide at droid-now.com seems to have worked for many people. Go to that site and search fastboot fix windows 8.1 or you could just Google that too I guess. I would paste the link right now but my phone is being stupid and not letting me paste it ATM. :-|
If that doesn't work then you may be able get what you need done by dual booting into Ubuntu if you feel comfortable doing so. You could easily make a bootable flash drive that you could boot into just for an emergency. I just used one for about 4 days while fixing my computer after I accidentally erased the partition tables of my hard drive, trying to make a permanent installation of Ubuntu. Got it fixed BTW! ats self on back:
Keep us posted if you get it fixed or have any more questions! I hope I've been at least a little helpful. I'll try to help any more I can if possible!
Good luck!

I am running Windows 8.1, however it looks like the fix only applies to Intel motherboards connecting through USB 3.0 ports. I do have USB 3.0 ports, but my motherboard is AMD and my USB3 controller reads "VIA USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft)." I'm not sure that the fix applies to me, unfortunately. Also, I am not connecting my phone to my PC using the USB3.0 ports.
I tried downloading the USB 3.0 Drivers for Windows 8 64-bit on the manufacturer's website for my motherboard (http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305), but when I try to update my drivers to the ones I got from the website it says that the Microsoft provided ones are the most recent/ up to date drivers.

Be Advised, there is perhaps a way , you wil find in the link below, but be sure to use the right intel driver And only if you hae an intel chipset for usb3 , please read the comments and my bad experience :
Under win8.1/X64 that if you have(like me) an Intel 8 /c220 (or with a 4th generation like intel I7 4770k) you may encounter a big mess , and perhaps you''l have to do a clean install of win 8.1 : all the usb2 DEVICES were disconnected after the first iusb3xhc.inf driver install !! So no more usb/Bluetooth keyboard+mouse , fortunately i had an old ps2 keyboard and i was able to delete only with "tab/alt Tab/ctrl tab" keys the
"intel usb3 extensible " line in device manager, and as soon as i done a refresh (ALT+A) in device manager the previous driver(Microsoft) was reinstalled by win 8.1 andall the usb2 devices connected (mouse/keyb/hub etc)
http://plugable.com/2012/12/01/windo...#comment-19066
see there there's in the last comments at the bottom , Andrew(tks to him!)a link + modified drivers for intel8/c220)
and for me it worked mouse/keyB were functional during all the process
next step check the fastboot adb is working now
Here you go... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061435
A later post I made (I havent updated the OP, shame on me...) is a link to some universal drivers from CWM that works fantastic! - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40108463#post40108463
Before trying this I would goto your device manager and right click on the currently installed drivers and uninstall them before installing the drivers again.
Hope that helps. I am using the link found in that second link and fastboot and adb works perfect. Also, while you can boot into fastboot, stock 1.58 will not let you run a lot of fastboot commands and will need to flash a different hboot.
I have a new S4 with baseband MK2. I am getting ready to do the root etc. but I was testing ADB first to make sure it works.
I have installed the latest USB drivers, and turned debug on in the S4
I get get adb to launch, but when I use the command "ADB devices" nothing shows up.
I have rebooted both PC and phone with the same results.
Question,
Does the phone need to be rooted before ADB will work? If so....then how to I side load "Towelroot"? or anything else for that matter.
am I missing some sdk files...or something else?
Thanks

Usually when nothing shows up at all it's a driver issue. What drivers did you install where did you get them. Windows right?
Edit : root not required.

Got the drivers from samsung site...latest ver 1.5.45. phone connects to windows computer and displays directories so I know the USB driver is ok.
I did some more looking and am updating my sdk devices right now. I expect that to correct the problem.

Drivers are good then, update your SDK like you said and try again. It should work after that, I don't have an S4 but they're all the same when it comes to ADB and fastboot. Good luck.

Yup....sdk's installed and all is well.....
I sure wish I knew exactly which downloads to take from the SDK download manager....
I played it safe with the 4.3 and 4.4. I didn't know if the updates were progressive (included all past needed stuff) or just specific for the version.
