[Q] Can't Reroot - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

After flashing back to Mk2 and trying to regain root using safe root. The installer will not see the phone no mater what I do. I've redone drivers, tried multiple computers I've enabled and turned on Debugging. All of that. EVERYTHING else see it. But not ADB it sees my Galaxy s3 no problem.
I first rooted the phone without safe root. But I can't find anything anymore I tried to use terminal emulator but the phone blocks it. Anyone have any Ideas? should I reflash MK2 in odin?

Did you connect as Media device? Then try adb devices.

Yes I did as Media device but what do you mean by adb devices where is that? I did try to find it in a adb shell no luck I tried a totally different computer as well no go.

"adb devices" is a command using the ADB utility. It lists what devices it sees connected.
For example, no phone:
C:\temp\android>adb devices
List of devices attached

Phone attached:

It's also possible that USB debugging got somehow disabled - settings/more/developer options/usb debugging. Make sure it's selected.

can you also toggle the revoke USB debugging authorization to reset the communication with adb?

Yes, that also can get it re-enabled. Unplug, revoke authorization, unlock the phone, then re-plug it and re-authorize.
In those cases, however, the phone will show up in "adb devices" as "offline".

Thanks I did ADB devices and it showed my device but it said offline, I tried the Revoke Authorization but I can't get the phone to ask if the computer is ok?

Problem solved
I tried the Revoke Authorization but I can't get the phone to ask if the computer is ok prompt. I did a full factory reset and cache wipe four times still only shows offline. I rebooted into recovery saw load update from ADB and adb start-server and got host but couldn't load the install.bat

That's one I wouldn't normally think of - if that worked for you, then it means that you had an old, out-of-date version of ADB on your system.
Thanks for letting me know about the fix, as it's a pretty hard one to detect and easily fixed one you know about it.

IT IS the one that came with saferoot didn't work,

Saferoot comes with adb 1.0.31 - the same files as the one in the post you pointed to. I'm not sure what happened here, but it doesn't matter as you now have it fixed.

[Q] Droid DNA and ADB commands

Hey XDA I got my DNA the day it was released and love it. I am a creature of habit though so i want to root it like my past dinc2. I am running into a problem though. the command
Code:
adb devices
doesn't return my device. when i type in
Code:
fastboot devices
my phones serial number comes up, like it should. Fastboot works but ADB doesn't. I am trying to do JCase's Bootloader Exploit. I have the drivers installed, environment variable path set to my adb/fastboot location, and java sdk and android sdk all installed. I know ADB doesnt recognize it in the fastboot menu, just the beginning menu so that's what I'm doing. How can i get ADB to recognize my device like fastboot does.
Here's what I'm getting:
Code:
C:\And-sdk\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
C:\And-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot devices
FA2BBS500706 fastboot
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Um, do you have usb debugging enabled.

Not sure what "slept dev. settings" is (typo maybe??). I have on/off'd dev settings and check/unchecked usb debugging a alot of times to no success.
Here's the cure all....I'm assuming you have the lastest SDK and have yor ADB folder set to something simple like C:\ADB and I'm also assuming you are running Windows
I had the same issue ....initially I had no issue in ADB and I was able to do the CIG change and unlock on HTC Dev..but later on I installed HTC sync drivers and from then on no matter what I did only fastboot commands worked in recovery...ADB did not in recovery or when my phone was running normal.
So...uninstall all htc SYnc and driverin programs/features on oyur laptop...reboot your laptop. on the laptop download and instal PDANet 3.50 (its free). it will prompt you to connect your phone and will install a proper driver (and also throw the pda net 3.50 program on your phone). Once you have successfully installed it, ADB should work perfectly for you.

yeah, whatever Windows or other HTC driver you have that install for thephone is still on the laptop and that will conflict when installing.
You get PDANet to install successfully your ADB will come back.
In your programs and features make sure HTC SYnc AND HTC Drivers are unisntalled.
No idea if Windows 8 is more of a pain..I'm still on 7
before anything else, make sure your sdk is updated to an ics or later level
i just update the sdk whenever google pushes an update
I'm on 7 as well. How can I uninstall the drivers for good, like to the point where its like the first time I'm connecting my phone to pc again

With your phone not attached..
Control Panel- Programs Features...when I had HTC Sync installed I had to uninstall that AND the program entry for HTC Drivers as well.
You can then also use USBDeview..sort/toggle by Last Plug/Unplug and uninstall any Android drivers you see which could be conflicting.
Reboot, Install PDA Net and attach the phone when prompted. Also accept the driver even though you get the warning that it isn;t digitally signed from JuneFabrics.
This didn't work I'm still getting error 103 Android Device not found
Update:
I got Pdanet installed via putting the phone into fastboot mode and installing Pdanet on the computer.
I did notice that when im in fastboot my Android adb interface (in device manager) popped up but when I left fastboot mode and went to the bootloader my Android adb interface went away, this may be my issue with adb devices not working i think...
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
i am currently having this same issue. i did as you did and went to usbfastboot loader and tried installing pda net. i also saw the same adb device pop up but my install is stuck at installing pdanet phone and not moving. did you leave it in fastboot mode or did you reboot back?

ADB device show empty

Hi, I have already had my USB debugging enabled and from my device manager I can see my device there showing "ASUS Android Devices" > "Asus Android Composite ADB Interface".
But when I reboot my tablet as USB mode and from my laptop I run cmd as Administrator, and run "adb devices" command, it just show me "List of devices attached" and then the command prompt.
I have already unlock and rooted my tablet.
Why I can't see my device id ? Please help
Try: Connect/disconnect device from USB. Kill adb server (adb.exe) from DeviceManager, and then run "adb devices" again. Also make sure that correct USB drivers are installed for your device.

Yeah this process is correct. Even I've experienced this.
What I did is:
Removed the USB cable connection and reconnect.
Kill adb.exe
Restart adb.
Then device was shown to be connected.

Yes, I did that but still the same. Any other suggestions?
If on windows make sure your driver's are installed.
Type in cmd
adb kill-server
adb start-server
If that doesn't work try a different usb slot. You could also try moving adb and it's dependencies to your system32 folder. It's where all your commands are stored for cmd. You won't have to navigate to the android sdk tools.

it's so easy, just turn off your android device, then hold down both "Volume Down" key and "Power" at the same time, wait a few seconds till it start in recovery mode, done.
now type adb devices, and you'll see your device.
no need for that.
close any adb process either from task manager or by typing: "adb kill-server" in adb console
close everything and use this customized adb file I attached, it'll show your device.
it also has instructions and necessary files for rooting your device.

In your case just disable USB debugging and then enable again.
fix the driver
I had this issue.
In my case when I went to device manager I could see the Device and wasn't installed correctly and could not load the drivers even after having installed them on the PC.
SO I clicked update drivers.
Select that will chose the drivers to install and select the Android Devices - ADB driver.
You will get a warning, but just ignore it and load the ADB driver for the phone.
Ensure you are in the sideload option of the recovery
Now
adb devices
it should show up as Sideload
Now sideload

Put your phone in PTP mode... just found this. When it was on charge or MTP nothing would connect, but when it was in PTP adb.exe said "error: device offline", but on phone it asked if I wanted to trust the computer!!! Ohhhkay, now we're getting somewhere. Clicked trust and ran adb devices and there it is
See below... I found there are two versions of adb.exe I was using. PTP is not the problem, but adb.exe has to be the right one or it just says offline.

ALSO!! Get the newest driver pack from LG "LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1". The driver packs in the roots that I downloaded aren't new enough. After Windows got the right drivers I was able to see the COM ports properly.
I'm not sure if I have the root working currently. The "Newest root method V03" where you click on root.bat seems to pick the wrong COM port. When I try to do it manually with Send_command.exe using the other COM port it seems like the root process doesn't work properly. It eventually completes, but no info about what it did etc.
I'm using an LG Transpyre VS810PP with Android 5.1.1 currently, and a Windows 10 64-bit machine.

Personally don't think that'll help, the problem you are experiencing is your pc not recognising your device in adb mode, try using a different USB cable and a different USB socket on your pc.
You can check that adb is up to date in the android SDK console.

Accessing ADB

I'm aware there is another thread on this, but his solution was simply switching the cable. For me, adb is currently working on multiple other phones, but on the G8X, it simply doesn't list the device. Any idea?
I do NOT have the full Android SDK, only the "minimal ADB and Fastboot" package, which just comes with adb, fastboot, and a couple other things. I love it and hope I don't have to install the full SDK for fastboot to work. D:
USB debugging is enabled, the device is connected as "File Transfer," and everything else is as it should be.

Actually it was more "complicated" than that, as it said it ran an older version of the server than the phone at first. I googled some more, and managed to solve it. It was the installation of the LG USB mobile driver. I tried with the windows stock one at first, then tried Google USB driver from the SDKmanager, and even an universal driver didn't work. And even then when it was installed, THEN it said "unauthorized" and I had to just accept the connection on my phone
It's sorted now!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Man, I wasn't expecting a reply after all this time, figured my unit was somehow defective or something. This worked perfectly! To others suffering, here's the direct link to the LG drivers, current version as of now, 4.4.2: tool.lime.gdms. lge .com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425 (Remove the spaces before and after the "lge").
Now I can tweak my system settings, debloat, use Button Mapper. Thanks again!
