[Q] ADB Not Working - Asus Transformer TF701

Hi all. I'm trying to get ADB to work. I installed SDK x86. However, I have a 64bit system. Someone told me the x86 works better. The tf701t connects fine to view files, but when I turn on usb debugging, it plays the sound like it didnt detect properly. Also, in device manager, I have the yellow ! triangle next to K00C and base system device. Any suggestions?

If you are talking about windows, Isnt it a MTP driver issue usually? I thought you had to reinstall that. I wouldnt expect that the x86 version is going to be better. Maybe it is! Either way its a mess. You could try linux on a stick. Its easy!

Im not sure if you can use it for production off the stick, but you can put it on a usb stick and try them without harming you system. Then install it if you like it and possibly dual boot it if you like it.

trouble with ADB

I've been following mrkite38's nice guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5096501&postcount=17
I understand it completely, and have done similiar operations before. However I cannot get my phone to popup in device manager in any form. I here the bell that tells you a device has been connected, but nothing ever shows up, no notification, nothing.
Any ideas? thanks guys
Is USB debugging enabled inside android?

does your device ever show up in device manager? I can't even do that...

I got it to work on win 7 64 bit. It was a pain, actually I only got it to work on my laptop and not my desktop both with win 7 64 bit.
So normally when you plug in the android phone, 2 things pop up in device manager as Android phone, however one of them always trys to load a driver of a disk drive (probably set up to transfer stuff) however whenever that device is enabled with the driver adb wont work. So what I had to do was, especially b/c win 7 is a bit odd for automatically installing any driver it want with out input from up I had to disable that.
Start run gpedit.msc
in there go to Admin Templates > system > Driver installation > Driver instillation restriction. Enable both "Allow admin to override device installation restriction policies" and "Prevent installation of devices not described by other policy settings"
Ok after doing that you want to get rid of the drivers it tried to put in, so in device manager uninstall them, also download and run usbdeview, and remove the HTC drivers from there too. Might have to restart?
Now the drivers i used for adb was from proxoid, there are 32 bit and 64-bit versions there for you and it seemed to work
So d/l that, plug you phone in and in device manager manually set the drivers, you know right click deceive, update drivers, let me choose, choose form list, have disk etc.
Now the only pain with this method is that when you plug in another device, you have to go to device manager and install the driver from there either by using windos update or manually. If you take off those policies we changed earlier, windows in its great wisdom will reinstall non-working drivers.
Like i said worked on 1 comp not the other.
Good luck.

odin in linux via virtual box

i use linux on my home pc and i have not seen a thread or qestion answered about flashing odin from linux so i tried it myself, forgive me if it has been covered before.
i was able to successfully flash with odin using windeows running inside a vm. my vm software is sun virtual box.
before you do this read the instructions for running odin in widows as i dont go into odin specific detail here.
1. created virtual machine.
2. installed windows XP sp2 on virtual machine
3. installed the newwest version of .net framework(i read that helps but it may have been in reference to kies)
4. dowloaded odin and the proper windows drivers and .pit file and jh2
5. shut down the virtual machine
6. put phone into download mode
7. plugged phone into usb port
8. went into virtual box without the VM running and select
machine>settings>usb
9. clicked the add device icon on the right and clicked on samsung_android[0400]
10. started virtual machine
11. started odin and added the proper .pit file and .tar file
12. pulled batery from phone and put into download mode again and connected the usb and selected devices from the top of the window, selected "samsung_android [0400]"
at this point odin should see the device. if not you may need to reselect the phone in the vm window, do this quickly as there seems to be a time window to start the conection.
simply click start!
this may work in vmware and other vm type software for mac and linux as long as you can mount usb devices to the vm as soon as they are hooked up. if it can be done by com port and not device that may be even better.
i have only done this with virtual box 3.2 running widows XP inside mint 9
if it fails i am not responsible for damage to your device. and in the event it doesn't work go find a friend with windows and run it the proper way! windows machines aren't hard to find!
this worked for my iphone with itunes but was trickier as the driver changes halfway through and that is why i thought this would work.
wine does not work, i have not been able to use wine with software for any device that need drivers when running in widows. so please dont ask!
Not running Linux except for my G1 theme dev,but thanks for the info.

I can verify VirtualBox works great for this. Qemu didn't, afaict none of the host USB access options work as documented.
Vmware also works perfectly.

Wouldn't Wine work as well? I haven't tried yet from Wine, but I might now that I read this.
I can never get the USB to attach using VBox, everytime I try to attach the device to my client, I get an error message.

wine will not work. it doesn't support USB plugging
Wine is a set of libraries and a loader providing a windows-compatible environment for applications, so in general windows drivers do not work with it. There are patches for USB driver support, but installing drivers is a tedious manual task and results are not consistently very good. VBox is known to work and is fairly easy to set up.

Couldn't have said it better, I have tried wine with lots of software but never got the usb end of things to work. Odin does open under wine but I have no idea how to tell it to see the phone as it would see a windows driver that sees the phone.if that makes sense.
There are things I can try but if feel I'd be wasting my time as I don't know enough to be sure I'm on the right path.

I'm not sure if I'm on the right track here. To use usb you need to add the device to a list of mountable devices to the vm. With the virtual machine off go settings> devices> usb. The phone should be hooked up and in download mode to ensure that it is seen to the vm exactly as it will be during the odin flash. Once it is on the list it should work. If this is what you are doing I'm not sure I can help, maybe the devs will have more insight.

So if you do a "lsusb" form the linux box when your phone is in "download" mode do you see the phone?
I can only get it to show up in "recovery" mode... there for I'm having a bit of a problem getting the VM to see it is not seen in linux...

well I can see it in download mode now... It was just the stupid front ports on my computer. Seems to prefer the back ones...
so now a device is visible in my windows VM but it is called "Gadget Serial"
When it is in "recovery" windows VM can see it as Samsung etc.. and Odin can connect... But obviously odin needs it to be in "download" not "recovery" for it to work.
I've problems trying it...
In normal mode all works and VM detects correctly...
But when I put the phone in Download Mode, "lsusb" freezes...
any ideas?
Maybe I'm missing the point of this thread, by why would you go to all the trouble of hacking around to try to make buggy Odin work under Linux instead of just using Heimdall, which is supported natively under Linux?

I swear, I was just about to ask the same thing.
Seems pointless and convoluted to muck around in VMs when there is a native solution.

[Q] ADB Problems installing on W7x64 (Composite Driver wont show)

HI,
I've had success installing my other android devices on my windows 7 x64 computer, have even used my (ADB) Nook Colour on a windows 7 32Bit laptop fine.
Problem: Android Composite ADB Driver wont install/ isn't found, Device is Auto Nootered on 1.1 using rooted stock firmware.
Tried:
I have the .android folder in my user profile dir with the device ID in it
Followed various wikis and guides (that worked for the 32Bit version)
Watched the driver load/unload in device manager as I tick 'Development Mode (enable ADB)'
Tried various driver packs from here and googles latest offering, still only matches up with Android ADB Driver not the Composite (wont even show me the composite one)
Wireless ADB works and is disabled, worried about installing CWM using wireless for some reason USB feels safer to me
Thinks I noticed:
Hardware ID is listed as USB\VID_2080&PID_0002 which matchs up with %SingleAdbInterface% in the ini file for the driver, composite aka %CompositeAdbInterface% has &MI_01 on the end. Not sure if that means its not getting the right hardware ID from the device when ADB/ Development mode is enabled of if having the wrong driver loaded on it shows up the wrong Hardware ID.
Things I havent tried, enabling ADB on the Nook using sqlite3 method, but if it works on another coputer didn't think it would be a good idea.
Plan:
Install CWM, flash CM7 or similar to device.
I had the same issues with Windows 7 64-bit and never got it working. Worked fine on my WinXP laptop at work though. If you find a solution I would be happy to hear it, but to be honest I have found I haven't really needed ADB much if at all.

Same here!
This one is weird...
I'm on win7x64 and I *have* got adb to work at times. When I was first rooting my new NC (1.1.0), I fiddled with it and I had it running over usb fine. But now, when I plug in the usb and I either get that the device is unrecognized or it goes into usb sync mode. Haven't quite figured that out...
But, ultimately, I just use adb wireless for any adb stuff, although it's "not recommended". It's worked perfect for me all along.

Glad to help. What do you mean USB Auto Mount? I kind of thought that should happen?
My goal for getting adb working was to get su, which i got here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953110 with a bit of trouble but seems to work, so that i could drag items from my pc onto HC. I'm using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952456 to mount the media directory. I now seem to have su installed and the USM app is working. i only see my BN media directory from my pc now (yay) but i can't browse that directory from my nook HC (boo). So i can't share files between eggclair and HC. I'm a noob to nook and newbe to linux, so i'm assuming it is a permissions issue but don't have enough knowledge on how to change them yet.
I've installed DropBox but it keeps asking for an SD card, which isn't a big issue, just i haven't found the time to go buy one. Is there a way to use db without an SD card?
unfortunately no, db requires external storage. if you opened the apk to recode its default directory maybe but im not sure its possible
usb auto mount I can disable in nook tools but its a persistant system that defaults every reboot, I dont like to see it popup while using the nook when I plug it in just one of many peeves
Things I noticed:
In the Driver ini it states &MI_01 means composite driver is installed.
Under Hardware ID I only get :
USB\VID_2080&PID_0002&REV_0216
USB\VID_2080&PID_0002
This leads me to believe that even though the box is ticked on my nootered Nook that its not really enabling ADB on the device (then maybe it would show &MI_01 as needed?)
Going to flash a new firmware.... maybe Froyo and see if it comes up right after that.

I thought that as well and flashed back to the EC 1.0.1, sideloaded 1.1 update and repartitioned, used cw to add HC back and all that, and still had the same issue. Came down to the ini file not having a NookColor section.
Did you check the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=987409
I'm no stranger to drivers, I could force it to use the driver by changing the ini files but it still wouldn't appear in ADB Devices.
Flashed Nooky FroYo and now the device driver states the hardware ID has the missing '&MI_01' which means the composite driver works out of the box.
I used IOMonsters Easy USB installer and it seems to have installed the drivers for Windows 7 64Bit Fine
After running the install .exe I also had to execute the Inst64.exe

Problems with MTP drivers to get kindle connected to PC

I have a problem I have a kindle fire and getting the drivers installed is the problem
I have install the ADB driver but am having extreme difficulties getting the MTP drivers to work
I have tried everything (every solution on Google)
and nothing works
I've tried the "Media Transfer Protocol Porting Kit"
I tried to get Microsoft help they gave me the run around and confused me even more.
I tried to Go to Device Manager, under Portable Devices, right-click on MTP USB Device, and then click on Update Driver Software to update the MTP USB device driver. I then Selected “Browse my computer for driver software” to locate and install MTP USB device driver software manually.I then Selected “Let me pick from a List of device drivers on your computer”. A list will show installed driver software compatible with the device but I dont know what to pick
can someone help me please

I choose from a list
when I plug in the kindle a different message comes up
"some computers require a free file transfer utility to copy files between the computer and you kindle."
I have WMP the latest version
what do I need to get this working is there something I can download and install to override this issue.
Is your version of windows 7 a non us versions, because that's what I believe his issue is. Also your PC should have a windows 7 key on it so u can always reformat it, but you need a disk, and if you don't have one I can't really help you obtain one because I am not aware of if its illegal to DL stuff u already own off then internet and i would rather not get banned from this forum if it is. However if MTP is very important and u absolutely need it, go to ubuntu's website and download a desktop live CD, if you don't know your processor type juse 32 bit, but most modern PC's are 64 bit. Anyways if all goes well after burning it to a cd or making a bootable flash drive, u can boot into a live os and it should have mtp and u can transfer stuff. I on the other hand cannot do this because I use an older version of Ubuntu on a small partition and it is a pain to upgrade distros and I hate the new interface, but from what I have read the new versions of Ubuntu will work with your kindle. You can always install Linux along side windows but if you don't know a thing about resizing partitions, then i wouldn't suggest it because u might wipe your windows os and that would suck. BTW ubuntu is completely legal compared to what I was questioning above about windows. Yay Linux!!!

how do I check the status of my windows OS and I am running UBUNTU 12.04 alongside my windows OS
Im not that familar with Ubuntu as I would like to. I tried to sync my kindle to ubuntu, try to root my kindle and it was very complex
more than on windows
Funny, I find it easier to root on Ubuntu than on windows, no driver problems and then binary bash script works the same way. I am unfamiliar with "syncing" a kindle, especially on Ubuntu, I never sync mine I just use it like I would a flash drive, drag and drop files to it. Should work the name way on Ubuntu I think, I use an older version of Ubuntu that can't open it as an MTP device, so i just push and pull with adb. My only problem with helping you doing this on Ubuntu is your using 12.04, and I don't use the new ones because I don't like the new interface, i use gnome based desktop environment. So I can't exactly say where to click to open the kindle, but if I had to guess you can simply open a nautilus window from that bar on the left of the screen, any thing on it that's a folder will do, from there there should be a pane on the left if the window where the kindle would show up as a device u can click and view the contents of. I'm kinda basing this off what happens when I use a camera or iPod on mine, I assume kindle would show up the same way. If this is not the case you may have to install a package for an MTP browser, again not familiar with the interface and from what I remember trying it last time they took out the synaptic package manager by default, so I would have to tell u a command to run in a terminal to install it instead if need be. Tell me how it goes I will try to help as much as I can.
I kinda feel like I put too much information in this post...
Oh and as for telling your windows os, it may tell if you right click my computer( on start menu) and hit properties. Another way to throw a guess at it is ask yourself "Do you live in the USA?". Windows I think will say something about it in the properties of my computer though, if not you can try running winver from the run box it may display something useful. I don't have my PC booted up into windows right now so i can't verify this, and I kinda host a minecraft server on it in Linux most of the time so I don't shut it down unless I need to and its empty.

update driver software
browse my computer for driver software
let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
select 'portable device' from the list
select 'standard mtp device' from the list

[SOLVED] I have a questions about file transfers

I am running Pure Nexus now and am rooted (obviously). Before I was previously on a OnePlus running a Stock Cyanogen. I was rooted also on my OPO. on the OPO I was able to browse my file system when plugged into my PC. On the Nexus I can only transfer pic/videos and if I want to push/pull.
Is there something different between the 2 phones/ROM's?
Thanks
EDIT: Update. Turns out the issue is just on my laptop, it works fine on my PC.
So, why would this be?

Sounds like the captain obvious response I wasn't looking for. Is there something about these 2 phones that makes me not able to browse my root file system or at minimum, my SDcard?
Seems to be a driver issue. Do you have the same drivers installed on both PCs?

Assuming you have laptop and PC with windows.
In the device manager you should see two things
A. an Android device driver
B. a storage device called Nexus 6;
When A. or B. is missing or you see a triangle with '!' , there is an issue with a device driver.
You need to install the missing driver.

I merely plugged the Nexus into the PC (the one that recognizes it) and it worked fine. It is possible there are Google drivers installed from past devices. But the laptop doesn't have any errors in the device manager and sideloads and pushes files fine.

and my laptop I only see Android ADB device.
Edit: I am getting neither on my work laptop. Updated. I will use this same method when i get home. I needed to add the MTP storage device driver.
No triangles on either though.

Is there a possibility that your Laptop does not have permission to install drivers ?
An adb-driver is not enough for accessing internal storage.
If you have permission to install drivers, you could try to change to adb-driver to an 'adb combined' driver.

That's what it was. I didn't have the MTP drivers installed, only ABD

Yes. The MTP driver is a separate driver. Can usually just search for it in device manager>device>update drivers.
