I've found a way to get ADB working on Windows 8.1. The trick is to use Intel's ADB drivers instead of Google's. We're going to need to manually extract the drivers from the installer because it doesn't recognize Windows 8.1 (ironic).
Bonus: This method of install ADB drivers doesn't require you to reboot without driver signature enforcement (because Intel signs their drivers like a good company should).
1) Download Intel's USB drivers from Intel's website (or my attachment). I don't have enough posts on XDA to be able to post the link but searching "intel usb driver for android devices" on Google has the correct webpage as the first result.
2) Download 7-zip to extract the drivers (if you don't already have it installed)
3) Right-click on the setup exe inside the zip file from Intel's webside and choose "Extract here" in the 7-zip menu. You'll probably get a warning about copying over files etc. just click yes to all.
4) Now open Device Manager and find the "USB Composite Device" that corresponds to the Android device. It may help to enter the "Devices by Connection" view (in the View menu). You'll want to keep expanding the device tree until you find the "USB Composite Device" that is the parent of your ADB device (and possibly the MTP device too). When you find that, right-click and "Update driver software". Click "Browse my computer for driver software" and click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer". Click the "Have Disk" button and browse to the directory that you extracted the drivers in step 3 then select "android_winusb.inf". You should see a single entry that says "Linux device with multiple configurations". Select that entry and click next.
5) After that installs, you should still see the exclamation mark by your ADB device (or you should see the ADB device with a non-working driver). Now you want to do the same steps as in step 4 except this time you should see 3 options when you select the inf. Click on the "Android ADB Interface" option and hit next.
6) You may need to reboot for ADB to pick up the device (or restart the ADB server)
Hopefully, this works for you guys. I did it successfully with my Ouya and Nexus 7.

no such icon

I tried all that it it still does not work for me.

Neither intel or any other driver works for me. It Installs it, sure, but Device enumeration still fails.
Running Windows 8.1 if that has any baring on the issue.

Solved problem by connecting into USB3.0. I have motherboard integrated Renesas USB3.0, first I had to update USB3.0 drivers to work Android ADB interface

The same for me, it was only working with my USB3 slot and also with windows booted without driver signature check.

Worked for me with they USB 3.0 port!

I'm having this problem as well. When USB Debugging is turned on adb will recognize my device in Camera (PTP) mode but it will not recognize it when it is plugged in as a Media device (MTP). Unfortunately I do not have any USB 3.0 ports on my machine. This has become very frustrating because I can't retrieve files off of my phone or test my android app anymore :crying: time to use the emulator in the mean time T_T
EDIT: If I put the files I want to transfer into the DCIM folder on my phone they will show up on the computer after I reboot the phone while Camera (PTP) file transfer mode is selected.

Same problem here, since I tried 8.1 preview. Works for adb, but not for fastboot.

[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.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
plug youre viewpad in now youre pc see een cdrom right click and open use that adb.exe that one works
How to remove the virtual drive
I have already installed the drivers from this drive, but whenever I connect the device, the virtual CD-ROM drive still appears. Anyone know how to get rid of it?

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 ?
Hi guys, i tried another pc with windows xp and everything worked perfect at first try. Thans for the help VPAD7, nice chating.
Bye all the other losers.
Hi VPAD7

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.

You could try installing the drivers manually so connect your phone to your PC via the USB directly to it, not through a USB connecter hub or any 3rd party connector
Right click on My Computer then click Manage
When the screen pops up on the left click Device Manager
You should find your mobile listed in three places
Expand Portable Devices you should have GT-i9300 listed
Expand Samsung Android Phone there should be an ADB interface option
Expand Universal Serial Bus there should be Samsung USB Composite device
They may not be exactly the same as these but you will recognise them
Right click on each one select Properties > click the Driver TAB > Update Driver
Click on Browse My Computer > Browse to C:\Windows\System32, make sure include Sub Folders is ticked. Once you have done each of the 3 connections unplug the phone, restart your PC then reconnect your phone, see if it works.
If that doesn’t work then follow the above process until you get to Browse My Computer but this time Click
Let me pick from a list and install the drivers listed there In each one you should get a list of driver options that will suit that connection.
Other option you have tried which is to uninstall Kies but when you uninstalled it did you restart your PC then completely delete the Program Folder Kies is put in before re-installing it, also the correct Kies version might help there is Kies and Kies3 but you probably know that.
When you install Kies then connect your phone it should install the drivers automatically but if you have a firewall that could be blocking the installation but not informing you that it is doing this so try turning that off temporarily as well.

yes its shows yellow error in mtp but I am able to transfer files from laptop and tablet only thing is I can't use cmd and adb but after going thru your link I come to know that my adb was too old which is of my HTC explorer so I downloaded adb (platform.zip) from the thread given in your post and then for mtp I manually selected driver installed in my laptop I.e adb interface >Samsung adb and then I tried cmd in new platform.zip which had updated adb files for jellybean+ version and now its working fine.
Dunno how you did that. I'm a newbie.
Could you plz help me out ?
I don't have any sort of "Adb" connection in device manager (which you can see in my image), which was supposed to be there.
Can you give me a detailed explanation of what you did ????

so you too also want adb to work for you right?
I can't say exactly what made it work for me cause I have s duos 2 also n so its drivers are also installed in my lappy.
but you do one thing
1.install Intel android driver from above post v1.9.0
2.enable debugging in tablet and connect and then goto device manager where you have mtp error,right click on mtp,update drivers select from folder will appear below that must be some option select from installed drivers goto that see Intel android driver after that you will be getting multiple option android adb interface, adb composite interface select any one preferably android adb interface and install.after that uncheck debugging and again check it and see if mtp error is gone from device manager.
3.download platform.zip from your given thread link unzip it and in that folder open cmd by holding shift and right click do open cmd here and check if all is OK by typing adb devices,if its OK it will list your device.
I'll give it a try, then i'll inform you. Till then, please stick to the post ! Thank you for the info BTW.

if still yellow error is shown on device manager right click on it update driver,then browse from folder or look for installed driver some where is must be there search something related to Intel or adb and select that else forget it cause what's the use of adb for us as there is no custom ROM or other things to do.
other way is download helium app on PC and tablet and in ptp mode you can get adb working

Having Trouble Getting ADB to recognize your device?

Excuse me if this has been posted before, but I've been having trouble with it (pretty new at this - the only other android I've had was a Galaxy S5 AT&T variant with a locked bootloader)
I'm on Windows 10 if it matters.
After installing the SDK and running the "adb devices" command, my results were:
List of devices attached
...and nothing more. "adb reboot bootloader" also did nothing. The phone never asked me to authorize the computer for debugging either.
The fix was to download the latest Google USB driver and install them manually.
https://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
(I can't post links yet)
Open device manager with your phone connect via USB. On mine there was an item called simply "ADB Interface" with a yellow symbol superimposed over the icon.
Extract the .zip containing the Google USB drivers (doesn't matter where). In Device manager right click "ADB Interface" and click "Update driver software..."
Click "Browse my computer for driver software"
Browse to the folder containing the drivers and click "ok"
Make sure the box marked "Include subfolders" is checked and click next.
Let the drivers instal. There should now be an entry under Android Device in Device Manager called Android Composite ADB Interface.
After doing this, check your phone and there should be a window asking you to authorize your computer for debugging. Authorize it and you're done.
Hope this helps someone do this a little faster than I did.
Man I gotta love you! thank you so much!!

Newb Needs Help Connecting to PC

I was unable to find help elsewhere, so I was recommended to come here. No rooting, hacking, reprogramming, or anything else. Just a basic connection problem.
I recently bought a new Solid-State hard drive, and re-installed Windows 7 on it. Everything is great, and it's fully updated.
My problem is that while my LG Optimus G E980 phone will charge via the USB cable, I can't "open" it in My Computer, to transfer pictures, music, etc.
I have tried downloading the driver from LG's Website (LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1), but when I run it, I get the following message:
"The Microsoft MTP driver is not found on your system. Please install Windows Media Format Feature Pack using Download Link for your media device to work correctly."
It then provided me with a link to download this. However, when I do that and run the update, I get told the update is not applicable to my computer.
Whether I try to install this update or not, it doesn't matter, because the driver installation tells me it was installed successfully. However, judging by the icon in my Taskbar with the red/white "X" and the fact that my phone still won't connect, it hasn't.
Yes, my phone is set up to ask me what I want to do when connected to the PC, and Media sync (MTP) is selected. Here's the kicker... remember, I have two hard drives. When I boot using the other hard drive, the phone connects with no problem. Same USB cable and port. Therefore, this is DEFINITELY software-related.
Is there something preventing this driver from installing? Why is the phone not installing the driver itself? Thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks.
Have you Manually installing the driver from Devices manager?
In the Device Manager locate your Android device. Then right-click on it and select "Update Driver Software".
Select "Browse my computer for driver software".
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer".
Select "Show All Devices".
Press the "Have Disk" button.
Enter the path to the Google USB driver. Normally it is located in the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
Select "Android ADB Interface" from the list of device types.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I searched, and do not have a folder called "Android".
I did, however, find a folder called "LG United Mobile Drivers", however there are about 30 different drivers in there. I picked a few, including "Lgandadb" and "Lgnetandadb", but I get told "Windows encountered a problem", and "This device cannot start (Code 10)"
Anyone?
Ok, I'll try to put it another way. When you first connect an Android phone to a PC, drivers are installed automatically. I'm willing to bet there was an error when I installed them on my new hard drive.
Are the drivers already a part of Windows? If so, perhaps I need to do a Repair of Windows?
Are they located in an Auto-Run file on the phone, and maybe I need to re-run that program?
Perhaps there's something I need to delete or flag so that my phone thinks it's the "first time" again?
