Check FAQ #2 check the step for your drivers. Also, make sure FASTBOOT is diabled in POWER settings. If you haven't already enable USB Debugging in Developer's Option under Settings.

ok first off thanx for all the help that you all have took time out for while i was trying to root my aria, but now my friend wants me to root his, and he's on his way to the apartment now, so i need to kno do i need to do the driver steps again or can i just connect his phone to my comp and run unrEVOked? PLEASE HELP ASAP!
the drivers are just for your computer so it can talk to your phone. As long as you didnt uninstall them from the computer you should be fine with just connecting the phone and running unrevoked.
EDIT: Remember to make sure his phone has USB Debugging enabled too.

thanx it worked fine, but his signal seems to be low
there are many topics out there right now guiding people through this but I'm a bit confused with what actually needs to be done to root the aria currently.
I would like to root and run CM7 on my Aria which is currently running stock FroYo 2.2.2. Do I need to s-off first, then use unrevoked or am I able to follow a video guide such as this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwDNRQelpr4 and be done? Then how would I go about getting CM7 on the phone...?
First time rooting.
Sorry I'm just confused and want to make sure I have a current answer for this before starting.

Glad you were successful, but actually you don't have to turn off USB debugging when using Android Flasher.
it wouldnt read it for me if the debugging was on. as soon as I turn off usb debugging my laptop says there is a usb mass storage device connected but when usb debugging is on, there is nothing visible. oh well, it ended up working fine.
I actually ran into the same problem yesterday. Even tried two separate machines before trying to turn off usb debugging. It's weird because I've never had a problem before.
hi there a while ago i unlocked my bootloader but i didnt do it right so ive had no data signal, now i still havent locked it again since i have no sim for the phone but im gettin a new one soon and so am trying to relock the bootloader, now comes my problem.
my phone cannot be recognised by my computer as being in flash mode, it ive tried using flashtool but that just says i need to update my drivers which i have tried but my laptop wont let me, i have also tried this on my desktop given the same results. both running windows 7.
hope someone can help me asap thanks
Try this drivers for Flash Mode

When you connect phone with PC check the Device manager.
P.S.
adb drivers
and maybe useful drivers from SE site
Hey,
When I unlocked my bootloader, I remembered that one of the common problems was complete signal loss after unlock. After using msm7227_setool2.cmd, sometimes, signal will be lost as a result. So instead, the troubleshooter instructed that you used msm7227_semc.cmd. After I did this, it was fine.
I am not sure if this will help you but I saw no harm in trying.
Thanks for everything again man!
Hello to all since this is my first post on these forums! And to just say thank you to everyone who will respond to me if I don't say it.
I rooted and installed CWM 6.0.1.8 on my phone about a year ago. I did not unlock the boot loader, because I didn't want to have any custom ROMs on my phone. Now just recently I was looking at android 4.4 and thought that this is a good update for any phone. So, I started to do my research for what to do to flash a ROM. I downloaded CWM 6.0.4.5 on my micro SD card and used "[ROOT]Recovery Tools - Flasher". Now this is where everything goes south...
I went through the app, found the CWM file to flash, and then I got the security error... After researching why this happened it was because of not unlocking the boot loader which was a huge mistake that I forgot to do.
I have searched on here a lot. I found a lot of great and useful information, but I can't try any of the suggestions yet. Not until my computer can recognize my phone. I know before this all happened, I had debugging enabled on my phone. I do not have fastboot installed on my computer anymore (reformatted a long time ago). I do have B2CApp.exe installed so I could try to do a factory reset on my phone. I have installed the driver for the phone from the LG program and from their website.
But like I said before, when I plug in my phone to my computer, the computer does nothing. It doesn't recognize that there is even a device there, but there is power getting to it. How I know is because I took out the battery and "S/W Upgrading" could be enabled.
If I can get past this, I'm 100% positive I can fix it then. If anyone has some sort of useful information about my computer not recognizing my phone, please share it! Also, for context, my computer is a windows 7 x64.
Thank you for your time and your responses!

Well I haven't heard from anyone yet and I've been still digging around. I might know why my computer doesn't discover my phone. I think it has to do with the charging port. It makes sense since that is where the connection lies. And I already know that my cords are all good as well as my computers. But anyways, I have bought a replacement part and hopefully that fixes the issue.
I'll post my results as soon as I replace the part. Wish me luck!!

Hey guys! I was hoping I could figure this out myself, but seeing as I haven't I resulted in asking the community for help!
I have been on here countless times resolving plenty of issues with my phone, but I cannot seem to find the right answer to my problem or problems!
So here it goes!
Okay, so, I have a galaxy S5 Active (G870A) and Windows 10. I am trying to unroot it and start fresh again since everything seems to be messing up with the phone i.e not charging when plugged into wall outlet or computer or car, not wanting to connect to computer etc.
I am currently trying to get it to connect to my computer so I can do what I need to do in order to start clean and fresh again, but for some reason I keep getting "USB device not recognized"
I have tried everything the internet as told me to do. Change usb settings in my power plan. Unplug power supply, turn off computer, plug in USB. Reinstalling drivers etc. It has just started doing this for some odd reason and I have no idea what it is and yes I have put in *#0808# to change the USB settings. I've tried updating my phone (nope), I've tried updating my windows (nope), I've reinstalled my chipset (nope)
Right now, any advice will be very helpful Thank you guys!
OH! I can try and send a debug list if that would help you guys???? Not sure! If there is any info you need please let me know!
*Bump* Thank you in advance
