I was trying to flash a different rom onto my phone with TWRP and wiped EVERYTHING, OS and all, and now i cant get android file transfer on my mac to recognize it so i cant put the rom on the phone to flash, and my PC wont recognize its attached.
Anyone know what to do? apparently im a complete moron when it comes to phones lol

a sorry didnt see that you are using mac... well then you need to add your adb command to your path variable so bash can find it... should be the same principle on mac as for other operating systems. just google that or execute the command directly from within it's directory so bash can find it.
edit: ah ok then good that it's fixed

ive tried droid explorer too and my device wont show. man idk this sucks
Have you tried using kies? Did you ever have adb running prior? What happens when you type adb remount?
Install adb drivers again and then download the android sdk.
Start run
Cmd
Mkdir c:\sdcard
Cd C:\androidsdk\tools
Adb pull /sdcard c:\sdcard

Hello,
I just got my first Android phone, the Atrix 4g. So I'm relatively new to Rooting although I have jailbroken my iPod and my iPhone but I know jailbreaking is much easier and simple. My problem is that when I try to start GingerBreak.exe, nothing happens. I've installed all the drivers, set the USB Connection to "None", and turned on Debugging. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but when I start GingerBreak.exe, I suppose it appears on your phone but nothing appears or opens on my phone nor computer.
Can anyone help me? Anything is appreciated!
Thanks!
Edit: BTW, I have an external MicroSD card mounted as well.
Get adb and type adb devices in command prompt

Blehh, as I've said, I'm new so can you please tell me what adb is and where to get it?
And how would I use it?
Download adb from superoneclick. Using command prompt navigate to the directory. Then type adb devices.

You did check your app drawer right? Gingdrbreak APP should be installed.

Fixed guys.
It couldn't detect the phone because I needed to download the MotoHelper drivers from the Motorola websites, the x64 drivers downloaded from the guide didn't contain the Motorola ADB Interface driver.

Wondering if someone knew this answer. I'm not new to adb but came across one issue i can't figure out. I have my adb set up for my o.g. Evo which is using Android SDK r6 which works fine. On Evo 3D i cant get passed "adb devices". All it says is list devices attached but it doesnt list which device like its not seeing it. I tried SDK r10 and r11 and nothing. I'm trying to push fre3vo.

Do you have the drivers installed. Also, go to settings->Applications->Development and make sure USB debugging is selected.
I'm not sure selecting/deselecting USB debugging and/or Allow mock locations will make it work, but I remember having the same exact issue and I started playing with those and it worked. Maybe someone can confirm. Good luck.
It was the drivers. Who'd of thunk,lol Thank ya!

For anyone else having problems getting ADB to run after checking the above mentioned solutions if you're still having trouble.....Make sure HTC Sync is not running on your computer. In fact, unless you use it to sync your phone with your computer, which most people do not. Just uninstall it. Once you have the drivers for your phone installed you don't need to keep Sync installed.
Still no luck.....I did uninstall HTC and tried everything......even uninstalled sdk and same thing I really need help.

you are posting with forward slashes, are you on linux? if you are not, and are on windows then you need backslashes. anyways, go to your android folder, then the platform tools folder. you should see adb.exe if so, hold the shift key and click on an empty area in this folder. in the pop up there will be an option that say "open cmd prompt window here" click that, then in the cmd prompt window type "adb devices" without the quotes. does it list your device? if not, open device manager and see if there are any things shown with errors if so, right click and select update drivers. if this helped pm in accordance to your promise in the pron thread!

After you bring up your command promt....You have to change directory to the sdk.
cd \android-sdk-windows\platform-tools (if the latest version)
or cd \android-sdk-windows\tools (if and older version)
Well to start don't have an Android folder....I don't think or c one. Also I do c the file in sdk folder but can't do anything u said to do....I'm on windows 7.and yes a promise is a promise.
i got c:\android-sdk\tools>.....after doing what u said is that good?

If you installed the sdk to the root of your hard drive (c) and you go to my computer....you should see a folder called "android-sdk-windows". If you have that, then it's installed and in the right place. You just need to change directories to it once you open your command prompt.

The drive? Do you mean driver? The only driver you need to use ADB is the regular HTC device drivers. ADB itself comes in the Android SDK.
I just did this today, install SDK from android.com; then you have to install HTC Sync.

You don't actually need HTC Sync. I've never installed it and don't plan on it. All you need is a custom driver .inf that we put together for you already.
This should help you if you have any questions installing the sdk.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK
You could always just install HTC sync (which will install the drivers) and then uninstall HTC sync. The drivers will not be uninstalled.

I followed that set up exactly, but I am unable to get adb to recognize my device at all. No "Unknown Device" shows up in device manager so I can not change the driver for it. Not sure why I have such trouble with adb. It's never worked for me.
Are you setting the path to the platform tools in your system variables?

And as expected, not only will ADB not work, not that I changed the drivers according to the guide, my computer won't recognize my phone when it's plugged in as a disk drive. Running Bamf 2.4.1. I rooted with the 3 step/"1 click" method months ago and never had any problems. I try to get adb set up so I can do things properly and learn and now I have nothing but problems.

Got it sorted. I ended up deleting the android sdk and starting from scratch using the first link....and it didn't work again. Tried the video link above...and it didn't work. Then I figured I'd try to delete the adb device in Device Manager, unplug my phone, then plug it back in. That worked for some reason. Now it shows up in adb properly, and I can connect it as a disk drive as well. Huzzah indeed.
hey guys im having a little issue trying to use adb or anything else for that matter with my lte in ubuntu. i just set up the sdk and ubuntu on my computer (used ubuntu and the sdk on other computers with no problem) and while i can mount the sd card of my og evo and do all the adb things, when i connect my lte, nothing happens. i can't adb and i can't mount my sdcard (external or both) and its getting me a little confused haha.
whenever i try "adb devices" in a terminal to see if my phones detected at all i get this:
[email protected]:~$ adb devices
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
but if i try with my og evo i get the device number and everything is dandy. anyone know whats up? oh and usb debugging is checked
Have you tried booting the device into fastboot mode then plugging the device into your PC/laptop then try the "adb devices"

No I figured it out tho. I had to edit the "udev" rules. No idea what they are but it said to add a file and I did and it works haha. I'll throw up the guide I found later

You don't remember what that guide was do you? I have seen a few guides, but none let me get it to work without resorting to running adb as root, a requirement.
