So did 2 upgrades, one to windows 8 and the other to Newt's XXX 6.0.2 release. Tried to plug in phone to flash the boot.img but pc says usb not recognized. Downloaded every HTC Sync I could think of, still nothing. Any ideas? Need the fastboot commands for flashing. Thanks
I believe someone else noticed updated drivers for win8 on htcdev website. Haven't tried I wouldn't touch win8 with a ten foot pole unless it was on a tablet

I have followed about every damn fastboot on Windows 8 post I can find on XDA and none of them seems to be working with this phone. adb drivers work just fine but no go on fastboot. Anyone out there have any luck getting fastboot working on Windows 8 with the DNA?
I successfully used fastboot and adb on Windows 8(64 bit). When i first plugged in the phone, and it wanted to install htc sync, i allowed it to. Then i uninstalled htc sync, but i believe it left the drivers. Adb and fastboot worked fine.
You might also check that you are using a usb2 port (not usb3) and not using a usb hub. Both have been known to cause problems with fast boot/adb

Reinstalled latest HTC Sync from their support site and switched to USB 2.0 port. Seems to be working ok now. Thanks! Can stop using the backup machine with this phone now :highfive:

i was in the exact same position. My system runs Win8 x64 and I had my phone plugged into a USB3 port, but even when I plugged it into the only USB2 Port, it still had issues so I used my Win7 x64 Rig and it worked flawlessly.
Also make sure you don't have an app like easytether installed on the computer this if very often overlooked just disable it for the system tray in windows

I was able to select and install the driver directly using device manager in Windows 8. The driver file can be obtained from the drive that the DNA mounts when you plug it in USB. I used the windows 7 driver:
i.e. <MountedDrive> HTC Sync Manager:\Win7_64\androidusb.INF​
Hate to revive a old dead thread, but I guess it is better than posting a new one, so anyways on to my question, my only computer is a Microsoft Surface Pro, and it only had one USB port which is USB 3.0. In the last few months since this thread has been dead has there been any progress on a USB 3.0 driver from HTC, or here on XDA. ADB works perfectly but I can't get fastboot to install. I have the SDK installed correctly but I just can't seem to get the drivers for for fastboot to install.

I don't have surface so i'm speculating but, just like everything else. Install htc sync to make sure that all the drivers take cleanly. Plug in your USB and
adb reboot bootloader
when your phone reboots it should say
fastboot usb.
If it does then you are good to go, just run the fastboot commands from the same folder that your platform-tools are in. fastboot flash boot boot.img
it will say sending, then working. and you should be good.
If it does not say fastboot usb, then please post back and we will do more research to figure this out.

It does say fastboot usb but none of the commands will work, no matter what I try it will always say <Waiting for device>
And I have tried it with HTC Sync installed and after uninstalling it. I seem to remember it did not play nice with some older phones but when you uninstalled it they drivers stay there, not sure if that is still the case but thought that I would try just to see.

I've never heard of anyone with a usb 3 succesfully doing it and i've searched the forums like crazy. The only way i was able to get it to work is cuz i have two ports and the other was a 2.0.
I mean maybe im crazy but is there some sort of an adapter than could change 3.0 to output 2.0? idk....
On a side note I loved Windows 8 for about 10 minutes then dumped it and went back to Windows 7. Just saying.. I know that's not always an option.

Lol , I'm with you on that one. I had dual boot and windows 8 took over my whole computer and locked me out of my Ubuntu partition. Plus hate the fact that windows 8 integration is dependent on having a windows account for EVERYTHING.

Well aside we are off topic anyways Windows 8 on a desktop or laptop is a piece of sh#t, but on the surface this is amazing I could not imagine anything better on a tablet. The only problems are the price and only one usb, other than that this thing is the best computer by far that I have ever owned. And I would venture to say that it's the best tablet EVER! The only thing that would make it better is if the DNA would play nice with it.

Today I got the HTC One from a guy that works at a T-Mobile store. The phone came rooted but I wanted to unroot it. We went into TWRP and touched wipe. We wiped out everything including the operating system. I tried connecting the phone to my computer but it wouldn't recognize it. I'm not sure if its because of my laptop which is a windows 8 or because the phone might have USB debugging disabled. I have absolutely no experience in this and I have no idea what to do. :/ Any advice would be nice Thank you!
So wait, can you access recovery? I haven't gotten around to rooting mine yet so not 100% the process for the one but if you can access recovery you should be able to mount usb storage then the computer will pick it up.

people have had issues with adb and windows 8. search the international thread for a solution.
ADB seems to work, but in fastboot I get a pop up says that the device couldn't be recognized by Windows and Device Manager gives
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

Now, I don't know how the underlying hardware works but I'm fairly sure that if ADB and other USB functions work, fastboot should work as well. Any ideas?

ahhh...the famous code 43. The problem with this code is its pretty generic. It could be hardware or could be drivers. Basically what happens is Winblows is having an issue with the device that is connect, in this case your phone. Seen this one to many times. Try rebooting your computer first of all and try again. If you are still getting the try updating the HTC drivers for your phone. If you do this make sure to remove old drivers and then reinstall the new drivers. That should take care of the issue

It does seem to be my computer and not the phone thankfully (works on another PC). I am using Koush's universal drivers and they've previously worked. On the USB 2.0 ports I get the device enumeration failed thing, and in the USB 3.0 ports (different board, uses a Renesas controller) it appears but gives me
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

I've tried reinstalling the drivers and no dice. I can't use the HTC drivers since I'm on Windows 8.1
I guess worst case I'll just patch it through to an XP virtual machine or something.
Yea win 8 has issues. I use Linux personally. That should resolve your issue using xp.

Same here Debian and DSL all the way but yeah a xp VM should do the trick then. Haven't played with 8 or 8.1 at all so I can even point you in a direction for that. Easy solution as well....use Linux

i know this is an old post, but the driver posted here got me back in business!!! Its a phone for the kiddos, and it was missing rh boot.img and all but 1 of my computers runs 10. This got the win 7 adb driver working just fine!!!
Hello, usually don't have much issues with this sort of thing as I have decent experience with this.
I'm stuck on this particular issue though as my phone is in a constant boot loop. I was planning on just reflashing a ROM on to the device, but in the bootloader or recovery my pc will not detect the device at all so I am unable to run fastboot or adb commands on it. I have tried this on 3 pc's(2 Windows 8.1 and 1 Windows 7).
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
Windows 8 & 8.1 will not work. I used the DNA toolkit on a Windows XP laptop to get my phone out of the bootloop (when you were using the Windows 7 computer, were you using the USB 2.0 port? It's been mentioned in many posts that USB 3.0 will not work). Don't use the drivers from HTC SYNC, the proper drivers are here on XDA (just Google it).

Yes it was on USB 2.0. Drivers won't do me any good if device manager won't even detect the device is plugged in to begin with. That is the issue is I have no way to flash a new ROM because I can't even get device manager to pickup that the device is plugged in on any computer.
Until I switched to a Windows XP computer, my phone wasn't recognized either, no matter how often I updated the drivers.

You can't update the drivers for a device though until it detects there is a device there. There shouldn't be any issue with Windows 7 being able to detect a DNA.
I never had an issue with this until now and now I'm just stuck in either a boot loop or going into recovery.
I would be willing to to try XP for the fun of it when I get an opportunity, but don't feel it is necessary.
If I do a factory reset from CWM Recovery I can get into Cyanogenmod and go through the initial setup steps. After that it sits at a black screen, but I can drag the notification drawer down and get into the settings. Only have a minute or two before it reboots back into a boot loop.
Surely there has to be some way to fix this...
I managed to get it to stay on. Here is what I did to transfer a new ROM over. Since all I could access on the phone was the settings I changed a locksceen slider to the Play Store and installed AirDroid. I then transferred the file over through AirDroid.
I am about to flash it now. If this installs fine and clears up the boot loop issue then I guess that issue is fixed, but that still doesn't solve the problem with my device not connecting to the PC through USB.
Okay I managed to finally get a new ROM to flash over after some issues with the ROM zip itself. It flashed and said updating apps 77/77 and restarted and its been sitting at the boot logo for 10 minutes.
Still never got it to detect USB connection on PC either.
I don't have a single clue what to do now. Am I just out of luck at this point?
Okay I know I have flooded this with messages, but I have Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 on there and it seems to be working fine. I can reboot and it goes back into Android without a boot loop from what I can tell.
USB still does not work even within Android though. Is there an issue with the hardware itself? It charges fine.

Is MTP checked or USB debugging enabled? If not you need to check them both
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
Yes both of them are checked.
Have you tried downloading pdanet that will reinstall adb asking with other drivers
Sent from my HTC6600LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes I have. Still should allow normal file transfer without it and also at the very least device manager should detect it. I think I am just out of luck on this. At least it can still charge.
On the Win 7 machine, are you sure that USB port is good? Sorry no one asked that simple question.
Also, have you tried cleaning your micro USB port?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Yes, like I said other devices work fine on PC and also have tried it on 4 different computers. I also cleaned the port.
NP, appreciate the response.
Hey friends, having a hard time here for some reason...
Both my N7 (v2) and HTC One m7vzw will NOT show up in "adb devices" when in bootloader mode. They do however, show up when they are powered on. Its been a while since I've tinkered with either one in adb so I can't remember the last time it worked, but couldn't have been longer than 2 months ago.
I've tried on two Win 7 x64 machines, my Dell Optiplex at work and my HP laptop at home. I've tried switching USB ports, I've tried different USB cables including the factory cables, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers including HTC Sync Manager, I mean, I've tried it all as far as I know... Including updating everything is the Android sdk manager, I tried installing the drivers using WugFresh's Nexus Tool Kit as well (all with appropriate reboots as well...)...
So, I don't know what the eff is going on, but if anyone could maybe she some light or share some past similar experiences that would be sweet! :good:
You guys rock, thanks all.
Bump. Anyone?
however, "fastboot devices" does show the device, which is weird, so I should be good since fastboot is working and all I need to do is flash back to stock? I won't need adb commands?
If you have a windows 8 computer laying around, watch the video in that thread I linked you, it has drivers for 8.1.

Thanks, I don't, but I did figure it out, fasboot worked just fine, just no adb, luckily I only needed fastboot commands.
adb will only work in recovery and os, fastboot will only work in bootloader
So yes this completely normal
