adb insufficient permissions - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've had a MT3G for awhile and just upgraded to a Nexus One. I still have my old phone and can use adb with the MT3G without any issues. When I try using adb with the Nexus one i receive an error insufficient permissions on the device. Here's some more info about my setup:
Nexus One:
Clockwork Mod Recovery
CM6.0.0RC1
USB debugging is enabled
Computer:
Ubuntu 10.04
I have the rules set up for adb
I have tried remounting and restarted adb with root permissions and have still receiving the same error. I've tried connecting to another Ubuntu box and a windows xp box with the same error.
Any help?

What response (if any) do you get to the "adb devices" command?
What exact command are you trying to execute when you get that error?

When i run adb devices i receive this:
List of devices attached
???????????? no permissions
adb shell gives this:
error: insufficient permissions for device
I receive the same output running the commands as user or superuser. I've also killed and started the server as user and root. Remember I'm running the udev rules so I can run these commands as user.
Today I went ahead and reflashed my phone. I downloaded cm6 from xda and frf91 from the same post. Checked the md5sum for the update and then wiped and flashed.
Even after the wipe I'm in the same spot.

Can you access the device via fastboot?

When I first got the device I used fastboot to unlock the bootloader.
now the command
Code:
fastboot reboot
hangs at
Code:
< waiting for device >
I can still reboot the device into recovery and fastboot.

another update.
I rebooted into recovery (holding trackball and power) and tried running fastboot devices. It found my phone. While fully loaded it normally displays nothing.
adb devices is still blank but I'm not sure if it's supposed to work while in recovery.

last thoughts, as it's been a while since I've used adb on Ubuntu...
Code:
./adb kill-server
./adb start-server
./adb devices
???
./PROFIT
It seems to be somehow an issue with your local adb set up, not anything phone-related. Could even perhaps be a driver issue.

Yeah, should've pointed out that fastboot will only work while in fastboot mode
trackball + power == fastboot, btw.
volume_down + power == hboot, which will let you boot into recovery
trackball + volume_down + power == three-finger salute, the equivalent to CTRL+ALT+DEL

i get the same results after killing and starting adb either as user or root. i'll pull out the drivers and android sdk and reinstall. i'll let you know how it goes once its done

Yeah sorry about that one. i'm still a newb but willing to learn

i just reinstalled the android sdk and removed the udev rules. gave my pc a reboot and killed then started the adb server.
same issue.
to verify adb was working i plugged my gf's mt3g in and adb found it.
i've never need to reinstall usb drivers in anything but windows so honestly I don't know how to do it in ubuntu. can you point me in the right place?

I'm afraid I'm out of ideas then. I've only had very limited experience using adb on my Ubuntu install

well thanks for all the help codesplice.
i'll keep looking and post anything i do here.

Please do. Everything that I was able to find on google relates to a screwy adb server... but being able to adb on another device complicates things. Very interested to see what you figure out on this.

I installed the rom froyou frf50 with radio from here:
http://android.modaco.com/content/g...ed-update-zip-no-radio-option-online-kitchen/
didn't work.
while looking into returning the phone to stock i received an ota update. so i ran it.
the update failed during a signature check.
i tried to follow the instructions here to return to stock: http://androidspin.com/2010/05/06/guide-unrooting-your-nexus-one-its-like-it-never-happened-almost/
only issue is fastboot will not find my device.
performed a nandroid restore to go back to cm6 frf91.
fastboot still will not find my device.
i'm at a loss here. the device is usable for everything but adb. and adb is the main thing i need. i dont' want to keep whacking at this and cause more issues.
any ideas are welcome. all my data is backed up and the bootloader is already unlocked.

its... working??? i finally got adb to recognize my device.
first i restored the phone back to stock using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717870
then i replaced the cable i was using for one from a Motorola droid. (since the mt3g has a different usb port i had to use a different cable).
then i ran the adb kill and start server commands as root. and voila. it works.
i remove the cable and go back to the one that came with the phone and it still works. not sure what happened but adt is working as well. so im back up and running. i wish i knew the cause of this frustration but i fear i will never know. anyway thanks for all your help!

Yikes.... take your boat back!!!
Perhaps you ran chmod u+s on adb?
Edit: Yep, that was the problem for me..
I don't know the commands to well, so i just right clicked adb and went to permissions and removed set uid.
seems adb needs started from root, but making the file always run as root doesn't work so well.. I thought it would fix my annoyances with eclipse starting adb with not enough permissions. Perhaps ill chmod u+s eclipse instead.
Oh and btw... nexus one can kiss my a$#. HTC Hero!!

Lost ADB Access...

Hi.
I don't know what happened, but I cant access my phone via adb anymore. I've used adb for months with no problem so far.
The Device is shown in windows xp as "Android Composite ADB Device". I uninstalled an reinstalled the drivers. But ADB and other apps like ddms don't recognize the device anymore.
I'm not sure, but perhaps the problem exists since I installed the modem-driver to use USB-tethering.
USB-Debugging is enabled too...
Does anyone have an idea?
I'm using cyan 4.3.2.1.
Try unplugging your phone, turning it off, on, let it load up, connect it to your comp, wait a good minute or two for it too load up, double check USB debugging, etc. etc.
If it still doesn't work, boot into recovery, connect it, and try adb shell there. ( assuming you have cyan's recovery, or that other custom one, Idr the name xD )
If none of that works, try to re-root using this;
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Upgrading_From_Older_CyanogenMod_Versions
Make sure to backup and stuff, etc. etc.
Hope I helped!

thx a lot for the quick answer, but I tried all of this. In the Recovery (Amon Ras' I recognized the first time, that adb doesn't work)
I can't believe, that I have to re-root... Recovery and SU are still working.
Any other experience with the problem?
p.s.: I unchecked the USB-Tethering and already uninstalled the modem-driver without success...
That's weird, you sure your in the right area on your cmd prompt?
x:\xx\android\tools adb shell
You could also try adb remount and see what that gives you.
I'm just learning the real ADB commands, forgive me, I'm no master
Edit: Make sure to unplug your phone before you uninstall the USB/ADB drivers, and make sure you uninstall *everything* that has android or HTC on it from the device manager.

you gave the right advice...
it's weird. I set adb as variable in windows environment and it worked till today.
Now I started a command prompt in another folder with adb in it and started adb... and it works. weird. I already uninstalled the drivers with usbdeview, restarted etc. a several times and it didn't work. Just use another adb-command finally worked...
thx
Code:
adb devices
adb server is out of date. killing...
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
HT852KV04159 device
Yeah, that happens to me sometimes, where it says the device didn't ACK, or something, but I just unplug it, plug it back it in, and wait a good minute it works flawlessly.
I guess our G1's just get moody sometimes, I know I would if someone changed my innerds and outterds on a regular basis xD

[Fixed] Power button broken. Stuck in stock recovery mode.

Hello, I am very new to this forum. I searched everywhere but couldn't find an answer to my problem. I really appreciate it if you can help me as I am a total noob in android.
Previously my power button was a little buggy, it works on and off, and I solved it by wiping the partition cache in stock recovery <e3>.
My power button completely stopped working today for no reason that I know off.
Out of frustration, I tried what I did last time by booting into recovery mode (using quickboot this time) but then to realise that I can't choose anything/ get out of the recovery mode.
Nothing works by removing the battery. When the battery is reinserted, it boots back into recovery.
My phone is rooted, non CWM. Has a bad eMMC chip with a susceptible kernel. (latest update from KiES, no custom ROMs)
I got this phone as a prize, so there's no warranty that comes with it.
What can I do now? I have heard of this ADB thing but I have no idea how it works. Does it help? If so, how?
Thank you.
Edit: Service centre fixed it. Turns out its a pretty complex issue.

you could try adb.. you need to first install adb .. its included in the android SDK package. eg http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1241935
once installed.. boot into recovery... connect phone to pc.. go to the adb folder and run command prompt in there.
then use command
adb devices
<the output should show a device connected> if yes then
adb reboot

Hello, thank YOU very much! I got it to reboot properly and working. And I learnt a lot in the meantime.
Words cannot express my gratitude right now.
I have another question though, is it possible for me to wipe partition cache thru adb?
yes using adb shell, you will get the access to file system.
for this adb should run as root.
adb root
adb shell > this should give a # and not $
mount /cache
ls > this should list the files. check for cache folder
rm -r cache
same way dalvik cache (if you want)
cd data
ls > lists dalvik cache
rm -r dalvik-cache
adb reboot

Okay, so I tried to do what you suggested, and got stuck at adb root. This is what I got in return:
"Adbd root cannot run as root in production builds"
So what I did was to skip to the second step,
"adb shell"
This is what I got in return:
[email protected]:/ $
I entered the command "su", granted su access on my phone using supersu (got a pop-up) and got this:
[email protected]:/ #
Moving on, I entered "cache /mount" and it repeatedly failed to mount.
I read up a bit of it and it seems like its because my bootloader is not unlocked.
But given the fact that my power button is malfunctioned, I cannot unlock it by normal means. I gave some thought onto PhilZ safe kernel but then the fact that my phone is susceptible to brick if I unlock the bootloader (there will be a data wipe right?) makes me stuck at where I am now.
What are your recommendations?
Additional info on eMMC:
[email protected]:/sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device # cat cid | cut -b 19,20
gives back: 19 (susceptible)
[email protected]:/sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device # cat name hwrev fwrev manfid oemid date type

[Q] Device not found on ADB | TWRP Sideload and CWM mount problems

My friend has HTC One. He wiped all the data on SD including the ROM files and One is not booting right now. It's rooted and has Trickdroid's 4.2.2 based ROM.
We tried lots of things so far;
- Pushing files via ADB
Trying ADB, it says device not found, no matter we did we couldn't manage the pc to recognize the phone.
- Mounting SD via CWM
I have HOX, when I enter CWM I can see the option to mount the SD but on One there's no line like this.
- Activating Sideload on TWRP
We also flashed TWRP and tried to use Sideload feature but when we tried to activate it, it says something like "unable to mount .."
- Flashing the RUU
And lastly we tried to flash the RUU, we checked the CID and it says o2___001 and there's no RUU for it.
I just saw that One could be S-OFF and got Super-CID, but to do that again, I have to pull and push some files via ADB so we stuck here.
Could you plese help me on this?
Try cwm recovery it has sideload feature I was in a similar situation once before and it worked using cwm recovery
Also. If you want to try use adb again, try to plug in your device and then wait for few seconds before running a push command. It worth mentioning that once adb fail one time, it is not going to work again by repeating the same push command. Once it fails run this command: adb kill-server
This command will stop the previous failed process after killing the server then try to push again

We tried a different computer and solved the ADB problem, then I did just like you told and it's OK now.
Thank you.
You're welcome. glad it's all all OK for you
Boot TWRP, then select “Mount”, then select only “Data” and connect your HTC One to your computer.
Considering you have adb.exe (Windows, part of fastboot.zip) or on Linux:
cd Downloads\ROM.zip
adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/
Replace ROM.zip with the ROM filename you copied earlier to Downloads (or any other) folder, then install the ROM.
It should be nearly same running CWM recovery. Hope that helps.
Same problem as you --> fixed
I was able to recognize my device in device manager when using fastboot, but wasnt able to recognize the device as soon as I switched to recovery mode.
I found this universal driver which would recognize both: download.clockworkmod.[com]/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
(remove brackets from [.com] above)
I was now able to use adb sideload to transfer the .zip to my sd card and flash my new rom.
Hope this helps anyone else.
If you found that adb worked from a different machine, you might check whether you had any tethering drivers installed (eg EasyTether) on the machine that was not able to see the phone via adb. I found that they interfered with adb's operation on my Macbook previously; it was maddening.

if you have problems always use Hasoon All-In-One_Kit for HTC
Am having the same issues, have tried everything I can think off and everything google has suggested. I'm beyond stuck any and all help would be greatly appreciated
my bad exp
I don't know if that help anyone but I had the problem "device not found" when I was trying to side load with HTC AIO KIT.
I removed all my drivers for htc from the control panel and installed only the htc driver (binary100100.googlecode.[com]/files/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe). Then the adb started to work. (after the htc drivers install you need to restart your OS)
When I installed new ROM and reboot the device it showed me the screen with the developer's rom. I thought that I failed and flashed new rom then suddenly the new ROM after one minute started to work. So looks like that I should wait long enough for the first and may be it would also starts to work.
Was he by chance having issues charging his phone before he wiped it?
Myself and my brother both a had issues with the USB port going. Couldn't charge while phone was on. PC wouldn't pick it up so no adb. However was able to pickup fastboot and charge while in fastboot mode.
If that's the case you could try running a zip in oemRUU mode just to get an os on there.
Is he soff?

This worked for me. Thanks!!
Once I removed all the extra crap from control panel and used the latest I was able to do adb devices successfully from bootloader / recovery.
I was just having the same problem on the new LG G2 (D803). It was perplexing because the computer *bleeped* every time it attached so I knew that it saw something. Based on the tips here I went to the Device Manager and sure enough there it was... I reinstalled the drivers inside device manager and then I got an easy adb hit on the phone... hmmm :fingers-crossed:

This worked for my Nexus 4 and TWRP installed. Running the ADB sideload commad from TWRP did not, and just trying to push or sideload from command prompt on PC (Win 8) did not. I had drivers for Nexus 4 recognition installed previously from Nexus Root Toolkit which worked when the Nexus 4 was booted into system, but did not recognize it when wiped and/or in recovery mode. Loading these drivers the Nexus 4 was recognized in recovery mode, and I was able to push the ROM and install using TWRP.
Thanks much!

Try cwm recovery it has sideload feature I was in a similar situation once before and it worked using cwm recovery
Also. If you want to try use adb again, try to plug in your device and then wait for few seconds before running a push command. It worth mentioning that once adb fail one time, it is not going to work again by repeating the same push command. Once it fails run this command: adb kill-server
This command will stop the previous failed process after killing the server then try to push again

Years later, thank you sir, for helping a noob with "adb kill-server"
I was so freaked as to why TWRP wasn't sideloading but PhilZ was.

I was able to recognize my device in device manager when using fastboot, but wasnt able to recognize the device as soon as I switched to recovery mode.
I found this universal driver which would recognize both: download.clockworkmod.[com]/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
(remove brackets from [.com] above)
I was now able to use adb sideload to transfer the .zip to my sd card and flash my new rom.
Hope this helps anyone else.

[Q] Help with bricked HTC One

I've been a lurker for the last few years; never thinking I would need any help or assistance .. but I have a situation ..
My Sprint HTC One was working better than I had ever seen it just last Thursday. I was running CM11, with ART. I had an old version of SuperOne (Sense 5) backed up with TWRP. I thought I'd go ahead and load the backup, and update all the apps and then make another more recent backup before returning to CM11. I got as far holding the power button and selecting recovery. The phone locked up at that point.
It took 10 minutes to get it back to the screen where you can select fastboot, factory reset, etc. Interestingly I couldn't get into TWRP. The screen read "entering recovery" and nothing. It would just hang there.
I read that erasing the cache with fastboot might work, and it did. But when I was able to enter recovery, instead of restoring CM11, I thought, "well, maybe now it'll work", so I just rebooted. Wrong. Wouldn't boot. And, now running fastboot cache erase (or erase cache) doesn't do anything.
Now, by pressing the power button alone and holding it in I'm able to get to the fastboot, factory reset, etc screen. Went to fastboot usb, and fastboot commands work but ADB doesn't detect the device. I can't send ADB commands, but I can send ONE fastboot command. After sending any fastboot command, the phone locks up. Nothing from that point.
I tried installing a RUU. The .exe file detected the version on my phone, and everything went great until the program said it was booting to the bootloader. Locked it up. Nothing from that point.
I need help.
Thanks.
I uninstalled the HTC drivers and reinstalled them. A suggestion since ADB didn't work. And I can't get into bootloader. No difference.
Any suggestions
Any suggestions at all. I'm desperate.

You can get into fastboot correct?
Fastboot - Yes .. Sorta
I can get into fastboot, but I copy anything to the phone via fastboot. I'm told "unable to write". Thanks.

Ok it's probably a problem with your USB cable or USB port. Try using another PC and another cable.
If this doesn't work read some guide to properly set up ADB, uninstall all HTC stuff and install only the "naked driver" and than run the LATEST ruu. Maybe you have upgraded your firmware and can't flash older ruu's.

Will Try
I'll give that a try. I really appreciate the help. I run my whole business on that phone.
Just make sure you follow my suggestions properly. It should be just the cable, and I think you don't have the right drivers for ADB. Stay calm your phone is just soft bricked. You only need to be patient and read. Naked driver here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263822

I did the same thing a few weeks ago and lost recovery in the process. The naked driver did the trick. Also the thread about restoring after a gsm rom install is a great. It's not a loss. Not having an sd card in the one made things a little different for me, but I was able to get everything back. These drivers suck!
Progress
I've followed your directions. I downloaded the naked driver, and the minimal ADT. I found the correct RUU (3.04.651.2) I attempted to relock the bootloader, but I got a message .. " Status read failed <no such file or directory>" Went ahead and tried flashing the RUU (fastboot flash zip ruu.zip), and got the message "FAILED Remote: not allowed"
The phone is unlocked, CID SPCS_001, and HBOOT 1.44
I wasn't able to access TWRP recovery earlier, so I tried reflashing the img file. Failed remote: image update error. I tried erasing the cache .. "Failed remote erasing error", but now I can get into TWRP.
TWRP says I have "0" internal storage. I also can't mount system, data or cache. The choices are there but can't be selected.
I can't use ADB (device not found). and the phone isn't detected by windows. I had installed the HTC drivers, but couldn't uninstall them, so I install HTC Sync manager and then uninstalled it. The program deleted the HTC drivers when I uninstalled it. When I plugged in the HTC One (with a new cable) nothing happened, so I used the windows hardware wizard to install the naked driver. The phone still isn't detected, but again I can issue fastboot commands. Well, one fastboot command and then the phone freezes up.
If I use filemanager within TWRP there's no emulated sd card. I really think that's where my problem is. No partitions are available. And, when I use TWRP to shut down, it warns me that no OS is installed.
Any other suggestions?
I sure appreciate all your help. Thanks.

Are you Linux savvy at all? All this crap is far easier on Linux. I guarantee the drivers are absolute cakewalk -- there isn't a specific driver at all, just a rule to tell the kernel about the device.
I can give you the udev rule for the phone if you are sick of trying to get Windows to work. The Android SDK is also quite easy to install.
If you want to try, just install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Later versions also work, but that version is the current stable release. I can help from there.
Try another cable maybe it's faulty. Uninstall all the HTC crap, run some cleaner app like ccleaner (maybe there are leftovers) and install only the naked driver. Your phone should be detected. Make sure you have the latest version of ADB. here's the latest http://click.xda-developers.com/api...n 1.1.3 Here&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13877458281136
The ruu is not to be flashed with fastboot commands, you must run the exe file
Here's the latest ruu
http://click.xda-developers.com/api....05.651 .5&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_138775039936710
-extract zip to a folder on your pc
-using fastboot, type this cmd: fastboot oem lock this will relock the bootloader
-from pc, run ARUWizard.exe from the extracted folder. it will run the RUU utility & flash back to stock

When you get it installed, login and open a terminal windows (it'll install Unity by default, so click on the first button on the left sidebar and search for terminal, then click on it), then type exactly the following (cut/copy/paste should do it too) noting that the first command will make you give your password since sudo requests root level access:
sudo apt-get update -y
sudo apt-get install -y wget openjdk-7-jdk
wget http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r22.3-linux.tgz
mkdir ~/bin
cd ~/bin
tar xvzf ~/android-sdk_r22.3-linux.tgz

PATH+=":${HOME}/bin/android-sdk-linux/tools"
PATH+=":${HOME}/bin/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools"
fi
export PATH
EOF
exit
That last command will exit the terminal. Start another and it'll read the .bashrc file and presto -- you have SDK access from everywhere.
Then, type this command:
android
That will bring up the SDK UI -- let it download/install all of the latest stuff (r22 of the tools and whatnot).
When done, close the android SDK window.
Type adb (bet it works), but fastboot will require root access (I'm not going to teach you how to get around that yet -- no problem, you just run sudo and I'll show that in a sec).
Finally, plug in your HTC One and type adb devices and let's see if it didn't just know it already.
Lemme know.

@bigdaddy619 probably got you covered, but if not, let me know. Your friend for Broadcom chips on Dell boxes is here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
The gist is pretty simple. If you don't know which wireless you have, do this:
1) widen your terminal window so you have ample room (good and wide);
2) run sudo lspci -v
Hunt down the Broadcom info -- it'll say which device is your broadcom wifi. Just need the numbers.
Working ..
I feel like I'm making some progress here, but it's still not being recognized. Everything worked great up until ...
After closing the SDK window, I connected the HTC One, and "Fastboot USB" came up on my phone. I typed adb devices and got a line "List of Devices attached" by nothing was showing as being attached.
If I enter a fastboot command, it hangs saying "waiting on device".

Actually -- let's walk before we run. I loaded up Ubuntu real quick to assure I can duplicate what I want you to see. So, do this:
1) connect (if not already connected) the HTC to the usb port so you get 'fastboot (usb)' as normal;
2) type the following:
sudo su
lsusb -v >/tmp/lsusb.txt
chmod 666 /tmp/lsbusb.txt
exit
Now, edit that file in the text editor (just search for 'edit' like you did for 'termina' and select the "Text Editor". When you get that open, have it "File | Open" the file above -- /tmp/lsusb.txt
Then look through for text similar to what I give below. If we get that -- I need the idVendor line -- it should read: "idVendor 0x0bb4 High Tech Computer Corp."
I copied some sample output from my own machine so you can see how it should look:
--------
probably a bunch of stuff we don't care about, then something like...
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0bb4:0ff0 High Tech Computer Corp.
Device Descriptor:
bLength 18
bDescriptorType 1
bcdUSB 2.10
bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level)
bDeviceSubClass 0
bDeviceProtocol 0
bMaxPacketSize0 64
idVendor 0x0bb4 High Tech Computer Corp.
idProduct 0x0ff0
bcdDevice 1.00
iManufacturer 1 htc, Inc
iProduct 2 Android 1.0
iSerial 3 XXXXXXXXXXXX (I X'd this out -- it'll be your device serial id).
bNumConfigurations 1
Configuration Descriptor:
bLength 9
bDescriptorType 2
wTotalLength 32
bNumInterfaces 1
bConfigurationValue 1
iConfiguration 0
bmAttributes 0x80
and a bunch more stuff...
If we don't see that, we got troubles. If we do -- we'll make a udev rule to load it up for adb and fastboot.
It appears he's bricked, when we first mounted the phone to the PC and it tried to install drivers we got QHSUSB_DLOAD which usually indicates a brick.
The strange thing was we could still access fastbootusb and the PC would recognize it being in fastboot. But any other command then fastboot devices would lock up the bootloader and fail.
Getting Closer
That's exactly it. "idVendor 0x0bb4 High Tech Computer Corp."
Finally, something worked. Thanks.
Now, edit that file in the text editor (just search for 'edit' like you did for 'termina' and select the "Text Editor". When you get that open, have it "File | Open" the file above -- /tmp/lsusb.txt
Then look through for text similar to what I give below. If we get that -- I need the idVendor line -- it should read: "idVendor 0x0bb4 High Tech Computer Corp."

[Q] ADB device unauthorized, no root, can't figure it out?

Hey, all. So, I just got a Moto X through AT&T, and I'm looking to root it. It came with the 4.4 update already on it, so I've been trying to follow the appropriate guides from jcase, but I'm running into an error very early on. After I download the ADT bundle and get adb installed and have it up and running, I was at first finding that my device wasn't showing up when I did the command "adb devices". I fixed this by getting the drivers from motorola with their device manager download, but...
Now I'm getting it showing up as an unauthorized device. I have USB debugging enabled, to start. I never received an authorization option when plugging my phone into my computer. I have it set to PTP, not MTP. I've tried toggling the USB debugging off and on multiple times, I've tried the revoke usb debugging authorization multiple times, and I've gone through and deleted the .android folder in C->Users->me. Since I don't have root, I can't go through and delete any sort of folder in my phone involving adb, because I saw that a lot as I've been doing google searches on how to try and fix this before posting here. One of my attempts when deleting .android involved me unplugging my Moto X, deleting the .android folder, running adb kill-server and then adb start-server commands, and rebooting my Moto X before plugging it back in. I still have never received an option to authorize my device.
I am running on Windows 8.1, if that makes any difference. I checked my adb version using the command, and it shows me running adb version 1.0.31. I am rather new to playing around with phones and whatnot, and all of the things I have tried were things that I found through google searches that pointed me to threads here at XDA. I'm willing to try pretty much anything, and I will report back and give further information if needed.
Thanks in advance, all

i also use mine on MTP but im running win7
issue def sounds like you did not allow the connection. have you tried uninstalling the drivers in device manager for the phone restarting and letting windows reinstall them and see if you can get the toast on your phone and accept it.
if that fails i would try competley reinstalling everything or trying another computer, another cable, another port.

I tried PTP because people were saying that they were having better luck with phones in PTP, not MTP. I haven't tried uninstalling the drivers yet, which might be the issue. I tried initially just plugging my phone in before I downloaded the Motorola Device Manager program, so I'll try going through and uninstalling the drivers, and the MDM program, and then reinstalling (when I get home from work).
I'll try another port, and I can also try another computer, so I'll also do that when I get home. Thanks for your response, and I'm really hoping this works :good:

1. drivers only(make sure you restart after you remove the drivers and make sure you check the box for delete drivers)
2. different port
3. different cable
4. complete reinstall of adb and everything.( also restart after you uninstall everything.)

So, I've done everything in this list, and also added trying forums.motorola.com/posts/caa12135bd?commentId=725256#725256 out. I'm pretty much out of ideas, because everything I've searched showed pretty much everything you've suggested (and that I tried!) as suggestions
I appreciate the help, but so far (at this rate), I think I might just not have to root. This is super frustrating to me!
EDIT: Actually, I think I finally have something here! After hooking it up to another computer, installing the adk and everything, making sure all the drivers showed up as installed correctly and getting nothing I pretty much resided to giving up. I, for whatever reason, decided to try and run adb. After I did, and ran the start-server command, it gave me the window to accept my laptop's fingerprint! Finally on to follow the rest of the guides!
Thanks!!!
Second edit: So, proceeding to step 3 or so in RockMyMoto, I'm encountering another issue. When running Impactor and trying to run telnet on port 2222 or whatever that is, I get an error that says Signature Bugs unavailable. If I'm understanding correctly, I have to do everything in this guide to downgrade to 4.2.2 or whatever the version with the camera update is, because there isn't a root available for 4.4 without downgrading. But now I'm seeing that I somehow need to downgrade from 4.4 to the previous version in order to get Impactor/telnet working correctly?
I'm super lost now :C
well in order to root 4.4 you have to downgrade to 4.2.2 camera update. if your not sure on how to do it here is a link to a video on how to do it

and if you are having issues with telnet here is a guide that might help

I've hit a few snags, but so far I've figured everything out. I'm working on doing SlapMyMoto right now, which is the last step for root and to be on 4.4, yeah?

"I've done everything from 1-3, including accepting and installing the OTA update to 4.4. I'm trying to run the last command in step 4, the adb shell stuff, but literally nothing is happening. I still have access from motowpnomo, I checked using the write_protect command, and it is still showing a "0" I don't know what to do at this point, though.
USB Debugging is on, adb devices shows my phone as being connected correctly
This is a screen cap of what my command prompt shows after I input that command from step 4

Any suggestions?"

everything looks fine bro just finish the last command and then run root checker you should be fine.
i know when i ran mine nothing happened also, after the last command wait a few mins if nothing happens toggle Bluetooth like is says and if it does not restart then restart the phone and you should be good if not we will figure it out
i might downgrade just to run back threw it to see if i can figure it out and maybe put together a package for you that i know works. but i am on the sprint X

I'm confused again; when I run the last command (I literally just copypasted the entire fourth step command into my command promt), I get an error.

I'm about to head out to work, so I'll be able to work on this later tonight, but if you have any suggestions I would be super appreciative (not to say that I already am not!)

echo "/data/local/tmp/install.sh" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

Alright, I tossed the adb stuff on my flash drive, and I'm going to see if I can try this at work. I'll report back. You are going above and beyond to help me out, and it's just amazing. After my last community being the League of Legends community, I'm not used to this! :highfive:

Running each of the commands works, until the last one. I get "can't create /sys/kernel/uevent_helper: Permission denied" error message
EDIT: I got it! Yeah!! :highfive: I found someone suggesting to take the phone back to 4.2.2 with this error message and redo SMM, and it stuck! Downloaded root checker, and I got a congrats result! Thanks so much, mate! You've been such a huge help; I was going to give up the first night before I even decided to post here!
I'm glad to hear you got it rooted finally if you have any other questions or need any ideas on what to do please feel free to pm me anytime
