Need drivers to connect my GT540 to ADB. - GT540 Optimus Android Development

I've tried everything Ican possibly find, but can't find a working driver thatt'l make my device discoverable by ADB. I accidently reflashed my Eclair rom and somehow the IME is gone, so I have no input method. It works fine, I just can't type anything, so my phone is barely functional. I'd appreciate any help, I'm being driven mad by this simple problem.

I guess there is no sepearate driver needed for ADB. You just need LG USB driver
then put ur mobile phone in USB debugging mode.
here you can get gingerbread IME this works on eclair.

Help with ADB

Ok i made a post and it was moved to trash and it says i dont have permission to post there so ill just move it here.....
Ok well i have been trying for like 2 hours now to get ADB to work. I followed all the guides, installed the 1.5 SDK and everything even did the Enviroment Variable thing as well. When i plug in my G1 i dont get any popup of a new device or anything. In device manager there is not ADB as well just Android Phone and when i uninstall it, it installs again on its own when i plug the phone in again. I went to cmd and typed in adb shell but i get "device not found".
Anyone know whats wrong? Btw im using Windows Vista SP1
I went into fastboot and that gave me the new driver notification so i have fastboot working but when i go to ADB i get device not found and device manager finds my phone as a universal usb device or w/e. Why wont this work?!?!?!?
It sounds like you didn't install the drivers.
Read this (I wrote it). You should have adb working in no time.
http://androidcommunity.com/forums/f28/what-is-adb-made-easy-17732/
Did you update the driver for the phone (should currently be showing as one of the USB Composite Device, IIRC) with the ADB driver included in the SDK (android_usb.inf in <sdk root directory>\usb_driver\)?
If you are using a 64-bit edition of Vista, alternatively, you can try the 64-bit signed driver found here. Also, you can try the updated driver I have attached.
Well, if you used your phone as a card reader at any point before you enabled USB debugging, then you'll have to uninstall the USB Mass Storage Device associated with your phone first. After that, unplug and plug the USB cord back in and it'll install the USB Mass Storage Device and then it'll ask about the ADB interface. That's your chance to install the driver that everyone is talking about but didn't spend the time to explain how to get there if you were in this situation...
never mind i got it. I used a program to uninstall all the Android USB drivers then i plugged it back in and it worked. Thanks for the help guys!

Need Help please [solved] !!!

I have Imilika's AOSP ICS ROM V6,
I changed the buid.prop
ro.sf.lcd_density=213
for tablet mode. after I reboot, my GNote is not booting. I cannot go to recovery mode or download mode.
Please help. I don't know what to do
Got it
OK, I was really sad about what happens to my phone, but finally I managed to fix it .
As I told you, my phone was not booting to recovery or download modes (key combinations not worked). finally I try to connect to PC via USB and luckily my PC could detect my phone . So i realized that the problem is the display not coming but phone is halfway booted.
So, I tried to change my build.prop via adb but failed due to cannot grant root permission (becoz display is off).
Finally I issue a adb commad to reboot in recovery mode.
"adb reboot recovery"
yeah, that command directly take me to the CWM recovery. then I flash AOSP v6 again.
Now, my phone is working again.
P.S. I just note this down for others if they get same problem future !
I have question.. I don't understand the term adb. What that actually and why need that? I did so many flashing so far and I didn't use this adb yet!

If you don't know what ADB is, you probably shouldn't be flashing so regularly. Anyway, ADB stands for "Android Debug Bridge" and it is a protocol for device control, development, and debugging.

adb is a connection type. we can run shell commands (in the phone), file transfer via adb by using our PC. for that we should have to enable usb debug mode in our mobile.
Actually you might used adb, when you root your phone in the first place . If you have CF-Root zip file, just extract it. you will see a folder called "files", in there you can see adb.exe .
If you need test run,
connect phone via USB(make sure you've enabled USB debug), open command prompt, navigate to that "files" directory.
run "adb shell ls" (to run "ls" command in phone)
run "adb push <anyfile in the PC> /system/sdcard/" (copy files from PC to sdcard)
like that
OK now I got it.. But why do we need to push some file like this when we are able to transfer files like mass storage??? Or what else can be done??? Sorry for the basic questions..

Its functionality is not only to copy files from pc to mobile and vice versa.You can use it to get logs due to bad flashing,zip align apps,reboot into recovery,DL mode,normal reboot etc...

HELP me to find the usb adb drivers for ics

hello to all devs and sorry if my english isn't good, i'm using the latest Nova HD rom (RC30-73) and i need to use adb, but i can't get a working driver.
i tried the wifi adb and it work fine, but i need the usb adb.
i hope that someone can help me
I think there are no USB drivers for ICS from LG
You can get it to work by assigning the Google USB Drivers to the unknown device in the device manager. It works flawlessly then but you have to do this again for every system reboot.
Maybe a driver guy could add the 2x's device ID into the usb driver to increase the compatibility.

Hi AEZ_BEST,
if i have understood well you actually have a stock rom (may be rooted) and htc_sync package installed on pc.
OK, trying this:
go there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950759 and download new version of 1-click root for tattoo (which occasionally you can use to easily root tattoo and install CWM recovery):
decompress dowloaded package into c:\rtatto folder
set tattoo to use ADB (android debug bridge) instead of mounting as a removable drive, it's possible but i not remember where the option is (sorry but two years and half that i not have stock rom installed ) and connect tattoo to pc [maybe it ask for ABD when you connect]
open cmd as administrator and issue these two commands
Code:
cd c:\rtatto
adb devices
it should reports you the list of attached devices
if your tattoo is in the list you can lately use adb to push the rom you wanna flash on sdcard.
Ops, i don't know if you have yet installed CWM recovery, if not look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27174485&postcount=129

[Q] Recovering files from broken phone

First of all, i have tried to solve this problem for hours and so far i don't have found anything that could help me.
So my screen is broken, completetely black, and i would like to save some files from my galaxy S(files are NOT on external SD card). Connecting phone to computer doesnt help because i should turn mass media mode on, and thats kind of hard when the touch screen is not working. Kies recognizes my phone(tries to connect), but can't connect because i should turn some other mode on? I have read that it could be possible to save files with ADB and i even tried but i didnt find any suitable instructions. So could anybody tell me how to save my holiday pictures :crying:

Hi,
I have a solution for you
No need to turn on mass storage.
What you need:
USB cable
Working pc
Android SDK http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
USB Driver http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
1. Download and install this tool: http://de.codeplex.com/releases/view/107423
2. Boot your phone into recovery (worked for me) ( volume up+home+power)
3. Connect your usb cable
4. Start Droid Explorer and search for your sd card

Thank you for your answer. I think i can't get my phone into recevory mode. At least Droid explorer doesn't find it. When i try to boot it into recovery, my computer makes that "connected sound" several times, so i think the phone really is broken... Also, when the phone is connected to computer with usb cable, and i put the battery into the phone, i can hear that connected sound immediately, so i guess the phone automatically boots on? Well i keep trying but i think it is not possible to boot this phone into recovery mode

What you need therefore is a (rooted) phone and USB debugging must be enabled - at least I never tried withouit thos options turned on. Since you don't need to do sthg with su I think technically you can go without root as well, but did never run it without so not sure on that. Hope you had USB debugging active before your screen broke...
Install the adb tools on your pc if you haven't already. (google is your friend )
What you want to do now is connect your phone to the PC, open up a terminal session (within windows e.g. execute -> cmd ) and then fire up those commands:
Code:
adb
lot of stuff, ignore - if it doesn't work: google installing drivers and the adb tools
Code:
adb devices
here your phone should be listed if it is in debugging mode.
then just
Code:
adb pull [pathToYourHolidaypics] [pathToSaveOnHarddisk]
so for example:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/DCIM Holidaypics
and you photos should be rescued. Good luck!

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately, this method doesn't find my phone either.. I think that USB debugging mode was on but can't say for sure. Maybe my Samsung is just completely broken. I guess we are out of ways to recover files . Thank you for your help and of course feel free to post anything if anybody have any idea.
