I am running windows 8.1. my computer will show phone as an adb device but when I boot into bootloader it says it is not a recognized usb device. I have loaded and unloaded tons of drivers and am having no success. I think this started after I tried to flash a new asop rom, I was stuck in voice roaming. In the process of RUU the bootloader says locked but I can still flash recoveries and roms. Some how I have data back also. Bootloader says s-off with a 1111111 cid. Not sure what happened or what to do now. any help is greatly appreciated
I'm having this problem too. I talked to a couple guys on andirc and we couldn't get it fixed.. Hopefully someone here can help

I have read more stuff this weekend than I have in 10 years. cant believe no one can fix this. that's why I finally posted here.
You can go into your PC settings and reboot with the driver checks disabled to install the win 7 drivers.. However on my Acer laptop the keyboard doesn't work to choose the setting in the UEFI. For whatever stupid reason... but it might work for you..
If you go to PC settings search for "advanced startup" you can reboot with the check disabled to install the drivers.

As far as I know it's simply because the HTC Drivers are not supported under Windows 8 ... The post above sounds promising, but I've never tried it before ... It's a PIA for sure and thinking either installing Windows 7 or Ubuntu just to get fastboot support is ridiculous.. Maybe we need to get with HTC on this? Windows 8 has been out long enough.. they need to support it with fastboot drivers.. right?
I found this as well... haven't tried it yet..

I could install the drivers manually, but still did not work. Going through device manager it just said windows has the best drivers installed

I'm reading the steps and it's losing me big time.. Says steps 2-6 are specific to an intel USB 3.0 controller which I don't think I have.. so I skipped it.. still .. I think it's a dead end.. Still looking!!
Just to be sure... What commands are you trying to run in the bootloader?
Sent from my DLX using xda app-developers app
Still no fastboot for Windows 8/8.1 that I can figure out.. always end up in device manager with a device that failed enumeration .. Thanks HTC!! Oh .. and when we try to use fastboot commands in command prompt, at least for me, just get "waiting on device" which will never come.. not without drivers.. and I even disabled driver signature checking.. At a loss for sure..

It's really not. I've been setting up all my computers to dual boot for at least 10 years. Haven't tried windows 8, but surely it's a pretty similar process. This guide is pretty much the same steps I've been taking http://apcmag.com/how-to-dual-boot-windows-8-and-linux.htm.
Or just make a bootable usb...
If you play around a lot with android phones, I really recommend Linux. It makes life so much easier. I'm currently running Elementary OS. I've been trying to get my wife used to it. I rarely boot windows anymore. My wife will reboot it to use photoshop or load new music on her ipod. But that's about it.
Another option is to run a Virtual Machine. I do this with Win7 and put XP inside. I have a proprietary program that does NOT run on Win 7. The system works very well.
Wow. All this really confuses me I'm running windows 8 and am having no problem with drivers or fastboot/adb..
I'm gonna poke around on my computer a lil bit, cuz at first I had a similar problem but eventually got it all figured out.. I'm not remembering right off hand exactly what I did..

I tried the elementary os on a flash drive and cd and windows 8 will not let either boot. I also chabged the bios to let each boot first. Mite try dual boot option. Have no trouble with my windows 7 lap top.

I finally got it Reverend. I wasnt seeing the device under device manager no matter how many times I installed novacom. Initially I installed the entire sdk, then I dloaded the universal installer, but I made one crucial mistake......... Restart after doing the install, as soon as I restarted the laptop, bootie showed up in device manager.
Thanks again, ur tutorial was awesome! Running xron quite fine now

I've had this 3d for about 2 months. Trying to root it fir the past month. Countless hours and I still can't root it. It is running the latest ruu and had the famous 1.50 hboot. I followed the HTC unlock bootloader instructions to a t. I keep getting stuck on waiting for device in command prompt when I'm in USB bootloader. I've reinstalled the drivers and everything. One thing I noticed was that my abd file u move to the android folder is significantly smaller than what the screenshot shows. I think mines lime 130 kb and the one they show is like 400 something kb. Could that be the problem? Or cause I'm running windows vista? And where can I find the solution to this? I've searched for hours

what else did you guys do to do this, didi you install Fastboot or adb or anything. if so can someone help me out.
Download ubuntu and just run it off the disk and flow the directions on the moonshine site it's really easy. I'm already running sence 5 custom Rom lol
Is there any way I'd be able to do this without accessing BIOS, because I installed a new graphics card on my computer, and ever since, I can't get into BIOS.
It just skips over the loadup screen and goes straight to windows while it's turning on. I suppose I could actually plug it into the onboard, then boot it up from there, although whenever I do that I have to remove my graphics card or else it won't work. Ugh, any simpler solutions?
Hey guys. I posted in the Jailbreak thread but didn't get any response. I need help unlocking my bootloader. Here is where I'm at:
My Windows Vista PC sees my phone and Android ADB. The Galaxy Note Toolkit sees my phone. Casual does not. It just sits at "disconnected" and won't let me do anything.
I have disabled every pierce of AV and MSE. I tried every USB port. I have rebooted both phone and PC in varying combinations.
I am a n00b to the GN2 but I'm quite experienced in modding. I am just having problems getting Casual to work.
Please help?
Did you try with another cable?

Try unplugging all your USB devices and using a different cable. When using casual I had to uninstall the Sammy mobile device drivers for it to work.

Did that. I tried 2 different Samsung data cables, still nothing. Even did a factory reset since my PC once had an error that my Android ID was missing and I can't check for software updates, thought maybe something went weird with the phone setup. Still nothing.
So I know the drivers are there, I know the data cables are good and I know the ports are working. All AV is shut down. Where is the roadblock here?
On a related note: When I tried to use the connection help on Kies, Kies told me my device wasn't supported. Could that be a part of what I'm running into?
Since VZW has to have their hands in every aspect of things they locked the use of kies. I haven't found a way to get it to work yet. Don't remember if kies air works but that wouldn't help the issue.
This is confusing, the next thing I would try is flashing stock with the .pit file and trying again. Or it could be a java issue since the CASUAL exploit is written in java, that seems more likely to me. In Adam Outlers thread for CASUAL he linked a java checker. Try that and make sure your good with java

What about this:
When I connect my phone to the PC, it initially shows up as an installer. I then have to go in to change it to a MTP device.
Could that be causing this somehow?
It could be. Make it a media device and retry everything. If that doesn't work then find the bay where pirates hangout and get win7 on your computer and retry it. I've only ever rooted on win 7 and win 8

I had this problem too. I had to unlock the hidden menu and set the phone as MTP + ADB to get CASUAL to properly recognize it.
Have you ever disabled your Internet connection and click "do it". See if it does anything.
