What operating system are you using? Do you have the Vibrant drivers installed?? Also, with this ROM you need the Nexus S drivers installed since the code is based off the Nexus S.
I found out your problem, you probably have the wrong drivers installed, you need the drivers from the Android SDK. You can install them under the "extras" section. Here's some more detailed instructions I wrote up:
Download the Android SDK: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Under Extras install "Google USB Driver Package"
then browse to the folder the Android SDK installed to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
Open device manager, browse for drivers and paste that location

I have used many different methods to root phones even a few tablets for friends. But I have bought a HKC 7 inch tab from walmart. Great starter tablet by the way. I have found no information what so ever on any forum about this model. It has decent processor power and runs rather smooth. Alas there is no way to root this thing to reach its full potential. I checked around on the net and found nothing, none of the one click apps work on this model. Adb does not recognize the tablet either. I've put in the tablet ID into the adb_usb.ini still no device found. I'm not looking for anyone to just hand me the root process on a silver plater, though that would be nice, but any help moving me in the right direction would be appreciated.
I rooted one of these for a friend at work,
sourceforge.net/projects/androidroot/ is the root that I got to work.
and I've attached the driver that the manufacturer provided me when I requested a driver for development purposes.View attachment Rockusb.rar
Here is how I got it rooted
1. Installed Java JDK and Android SDK.
2. downloaded and extracted Manufacturer driver from Rockusb.rar and right clicked on the .inf file and selected install.
3. Opened Android SDK manager, installed Android SDK for version of tablet, and SDK tools, and Google usb driver from extras.
4. Enabled usb debugging mode on the tablet, and enabled unsigned apps to be installed.
5. Connected the tablet via USB
6. when the tablet shows up in the device manager as P771A I selected to update the driver manually, and selected the google USB driver from the android SDK.
7. Downloaded and extracted the android root I listed above.
8. Run android root and when it says "press any key to continue" it is waiting until the device connects to the computer again, as it could be rebooting, and one time when the tablet reboots, there is no text, just a black screen, but it does eventually connect and you can continue.
Also. I extracted the root to my desktop. when I ran as admin, it did not work, because the files were not on the administrators desktop, only mine, so it might be a good idea to extract the root to C:\ drive, so if you need to use admin, it won't fail
hope this helps

when in doubt go back to the forums. I can not get the inf in the rockusb to install. "Installation for this file type not permited" . So I'm stuck, the program will not complete. I'm on windows 7 so maybe the driver is for another system. If you can provide futher help, Thanks in advance.
New approach
Ok I cannot get the drivers to install on my computer. Window 7 seems to default to its own driver and will not let me install the rockusb drivers.
With that said, I have the system Update.img and was wandering if the img itself can be rooted and then updated to the tablet. If this is possible and anyone with the knowledge is willing I will upload it. Or if someone is really patient and would like to walk me through the process and I will attempt to do this myself
No Help
So with no help I assume this is dead. I have a usb driver package with an .inf file a .sys file and a .cat file but this will not install on my computer thus leaving without a clue and no help. Have seached for a way to force install this driver command line install right click and install the inf. Nothing works so if someone wants to throw me a bone, thanks, if not I guess this thread is dead.

Can't tell your level of PC knowledge so if you already know this don't get offended. The .inf is editable and there are areas in there that allow manufacturers to prevent installation on some OS's to prevent conflicts. Make a system restore point or better yet a backup and then post the contents of the INF somewhere and point the folks here to it and they may be able to help you edit it to install. Regardless, you'll have to use the "have disk" option instead of letting windows search for a driver even if you get the edits right. And the usual disclaimers about me not being responsible for any issues with your equipment as a result of this are in effect.

I was able to root using the instructions above although i don't think you need the rockusb drivers. You just need the usb drivers that come with the android sdk. I am on Win 7. Thanks for the above info for rooting.
I was able to install ROM manager and now proceeding to backup ROM and upgrade using this guide: cant post link as forum is preventing, but search for rom flash guide on androidpolice com.
Hope this helps.
Big thanks to this thread to get me going...!!!
?
could someone please, Barney style, Explain how I am supposed to select the android_winusb.inf because my steps are as follows. Right click on device p771a in device manager, browse my computer, let me pick from a list of device drivers, have disk, point to the google usb driver (C:/Android/android-sdk/extras/google/usb_driver) select the android_winusb.inf open. Hit ok, (The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for you device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows for x64-based systems). Hope this helps explain my troubles. Glad that my thread is helping others to root this device but it does not work for me.
Could it really be that simple?
Found in another forum about the nexus 7 when connected to the pc there is a presistent notification that allows you to change the connection type from mpt to camera which will give you adb access and the tool from this thread works great. Thanks for the help guys, got my root on

Glad you could figure it out...
I was not able to use the ROM Manager to backup the ROM since the device is not supported on this tool, but see below for how you can obtain the stock image.
I've tried to flash multiple different ROMs using RKAndroid to the tablet, spending days on this, with no success. The tool itself works great and I am able to flash the ROMs since it supports the RK29 chipset which I believe this tablet has. The stock ROM for this device is available from the manufacturers web site (the link is available when you go to Settings => About Device => System Update, hkcdigital dot com slash update slash update.img), if anyone would like to take the stock rom and upgrade it to Android 4.2/JB.
I was able to unpack/repack the stock image using the wendal image tools and modify / cook the ROM using Android kitchen method described elsewhere in this forum. Rockchip Batch Tool is another great utility to flash custom ROMs to this device. Also, If you put the ROM as update.zip or update.img file on the microSD card, the tablet will take it and flash the image as long as it is in the right format. Ofcourse you can put the tablet into recovery and restore from there as well. I've found that the stock image (update.img) has the following file/folder format when unpacked: /RK29xxLoader(L)_V2.27.bin, /package-file, /parameter, /recover-script, /update-script, /Image/boot.img, /Image/system.img, /Image/recovery.img and /Image/misc.img.
Is it possible to upgrade this tablet to Android 4.2 or atleast Jelly Bean? Would be very helpful if someone is able to do this. The most success I've had so far is with the custom ROM Oma_Odys_Loox_JB_4.1.1_v1.2.2a flashed using RKAndroid. It flashed the tablet fine, updated the boot etc. On tablet boot I am able to see the new logo, but then the it doesn't go anywhere from there. I think customizing this ROM or the stock ROM we should be able to get the new OS on to the HKC tablet. I've given up for now since I don't have the time to spend on this anymore. If someone is able to do this, please post the instructions or upload the custom ROM, as I am sure it will benefit a lot of people and will be much appreciated. Happy cooking!
Thanks!
jawadshaik- rom manager
If you have successfully flashed rom manager on this device could you post the steps you took to do so. What version? Manual flash? The program itself says there is no recovery for this device.
Sorry jumped the gun on that last post. Thanks for the info
What's the secret to keeping the battery from draining so quickly while it's idle? I just got this and see it drained about 40% in about 2 hours I think and I wasn't using it.

@jawadshaik
Just out of curiosity, when you were flashing that Rom that brought up the boot screen, did you do a wipe/factory reset from recovery mode before flashing? I have no idea if that would help or not, but most if not all roms require a data wipe before flashing... Just curious if you had tried this as I have heard of this happening on other devices because a data wipe wasn't done first. Might be worth a shot if you haven't tried it already, just a thought

So after doing working on this a while, I've finally figured it out. Here are some caveats:
1. You can't do this on a Mac or Linux box. Don't ask me why, you just cant.
2. You have to turn on USB debugging, change the Security to allow Unknown sources and MOST IMPORTANT: when you plug it in, you have to change it to "Connected as a Camera". Putting it in storage mode doesn't work!
HOW TO INSTALL THE PROPER DRIVER & ROOT THE DEVICE:
1. Follow the steps quoted above and download the Google Android SDK, and the Java JDK (from oracle.com/java).
2. When you first plug it in (use the USB plug labeled USB not the HOST one), it complains and will discover a P771A device. When it does, right click on your computer, choose Manage my computer, go to the device manager and then right click on the P771A device. Click "Update Device Driver". Choose "Browse my computer for Driver software". Then choose, "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer". Browse to the \adt-bundle-windows-x86_64\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver folder which you would have if you had downloaded and installed the Google Android SDK. A list of 3 drivers will appear when you click OK. CHOOSE THE "ANDROID BOOTLOADER INTERFACE" as the driver. None of the others work.
3. Run the root script batch file mentioned above which can be found here at: sourceforge.net/projects/androidroot
4. The root script isn't really great at explaining so I'll try. When you first run it, make sure your device is unlocked and on the home screen.
5. The first thing it will do is reboot your machine. Don't press enter until your machine comes back up.
6. After your machine boots unlock it and then press Enter again. Your machine will reboot. This time it won't seem to come up but the backlight will remain on.
7. Wait about 30-45 seconds then press enter again. You should get: uid=0(root) gid=0(root) in the command prompt window.
8. Press Enter. You should get:
remount succeeded
727 KB/s (22364 bytes in 0.030s)
Removing changes except ROOT...
Installing superuser...
2288 KB/s (843503 bytes in 0.360s)
9. After about 30-60 seconds, your device should reboot. You'll see a box briefly saying "Android is Upgrading" and you'll arrive at the lock screen. Press Enter to exit the command prompt.
Your device is now rooted and you should see "SuperUser" installed. I promptly installed "root uninstaller" to get rid of Facebook, Skype, and Youtube which my little kids don't need access to. This device doesn't have a bootloader or recovery mode so rooting it doesn't get you much besides the ability to uninstall the system software. Have fun.
This may help someone but on step 2 of the guide on the second page, after you right click your device and go to "Let me pick from a list of drivers on my computer". You then click "Show All Devices" then "Have Disk..." Direct it to the root of the adt-bundle folder you downloaded then you can select from the three drivers. I'm on windows 7 32bit and the drivers didn't show up for me like how it was suppose to..
I also could NOT get any of the drivers in the "manufacturer USB" packet to install... I WAS able to install the google drivers, but that also would not allow ADB to see the device... So still stuck with everyone else...
P771A possible problem
I'm having a similar problem where the USB driver downloaded through Android SDK's -> Extras -> Google USB Driver, tells me that the file contains no information about my device. I noticed in the Sources of SDK, there wasn't an API for 4.0.4, only 4.0.3 then 4.1, so i downloaded 4.0.3 repo.
============================================
my devices is on 4.0.4, and my Kernal is as follows:
3.0.8+
[email protected] #8
Wed Aug 29 09:59:19 PDT 2012
Build Number:
P771A-user 4.0.4 IMM76D user.v402.007 release-keys
============================================
I've also made sure weather Unknown Sources is on, as well as USB debugging.
Might the Kernal be the problem? Also, does it matter weather its MTP or CTP?
Now HKC is telling me that they don't support the ability to jail break their devices

hello.
i have very problems to install usb drivers for my phone huawei U8650.
i try everything i find in internet to install but, every try, dont work.
when i connect my phote to my pc(windows 7 32bits), appear Unknown Device.
then i chose :update driver software,
then Browse my computer for driver software
then Let me pick from a list of device driver on my computer
then Open folder with drivers that i downloaded and Select file "android_usb.inf" and click "Open".
here appear one error: "the specified folder does not contain a compatible software driver for your device. if the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for 32-bit systems.". all the drivers i try to install give me these error.
help me, i try another solutions but the pc give error: best driver already installed.
anyone.
ps i try in a pc with a windows xp, but the results are the same...
Hello,
Have you tried official ones from Huawei?
I can't post any link, so you google for "HUAWEI Android Phones USB Driver" and look for the huawei website (it was the 2nd google result for me), the properties are v1[1].0 | 2011-06-29 | 7.76MB
I have a U8860 and in windows 8 it worked very well. Connect your phone (maybe you need to enable the usb debugging mode on the developer settings of your phone) and just run the installation and execute the thing that will give you the option for drivers installation. There is no need to do any manual .inf selection to install.
Hope it helps
Thanks to try help.
i did what you said, first i unninstall the drivers, then i install drivers from huawei website. but still the same. When i connect the usb in computer, only starts charging the phone. nothing more happens.
So I ran into some issues with my HTC Evo 4G LTE when attempting to use it on my Windows 8 laptop that I wanted to post about in case others have the same issue. I did a number of Google searches and while I ran across a number of others who had this same issue, no one seemed to have the fix all in one place, so here's what I experienced and what I did.
First step in CM10.1 is to enable Developer Options. Go to System>About Phone and tap on the build number 6-7 times. I know this is well documented but like I said, I'm putting this all in one place for reference.
Initially when connecting my phone via USB to my Windows 8 machine it would immediately detect it as an external storage device (even when ADB root and Android debugging were enabled in the Developer Options)
The specific driver it kept loading was called Linux File-CD Gadget USB Device under Disk Drives
It would also load as an external drive letter under Portable Devices (in my case F:\)
Finally, under Universal Serial Bus Controllers it would load a USB Mass Storage driver and a USB Composite Device Driver
First, you'll need the Android SDK. This is important for two reasons: 1: The most up to date ADB as it is required in CM10.1 / Android 4.2.x because of the device fingerprinting that Android now does with ADB. Get rid of older versions or you'll end up with the device detected but offline. 2: You need the USB driver installed from the Android SDK.
I tried a number of suggested things to attempt to update the driver for my device with the Android USB driver, some people had suggested installing it over the USB driver, some over the Portable Device driver and some over the Linux File-CD Gadget driver. None of these worked, windows kept returning the following error:
The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems.
What I eventually found is this: After enabling Android Debugging and connecting your phone via USB, you need to go to the View menu in the Device Manager and select 'Show hidden devices'. At that time I was presented with a new section called Android USB Devices. I specifically recall in Windows 7 this was not a hidden area, however it is in Windows 8. Under this heading was a device labeled My HTC. I'm quite sure I never installed the HTC drivers for my phone in Windows 8 so this may be something that is shipped with the OS at this point... or if I did install them I dont recall doing it.
Either way, this is the driver you need to update. Simply right-click, update driver, and replace it with the driver stored in the Android SDK folder (AndroidSDK folder root\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver\). This will load as a Samsung Android driver. Dont worry about it, it works fine.
Finally, as I mentioned before, if you run adb devices and all you see is your phone but it says "offline" and you're sure you have the newest ADB, check your phone screen, it will be asking you to confirm the fingerprint of your machine before it comes online and lets you issue commands.
I hope this helps other people, it was quite a hassle figuring this out, mostly because I didnt expect the driver to be hidden since it wasnt in Windows 7.
