Trying to root my DINC for the first time and the USB drivers provided by the guide do not work, I'm running Windows 7 64bit. I thought I saw some 64 bit USB drivers some where while browsing one day on here.

trying to root for awhile now reading through different methods, tricks, etc and to be honest, my head is spinning from all the different info. However, in trying so many different things, I did seem to come up with a true issue that I can actually pin down...I don't have any drivers installed for the DInc. I tried the edit method for the .inf file in the sdk and tried to manually update the drivers (device manager says there aren't any drivers installed for it at all) and it just simply doesn't see any drivers there. I'm kind of lost. Installed HTC Sync and uninstalled and reinstalled three times. What am I missing (other than drivers, of course) to get this installed? Where/how can I get the drivers and actually install them?

Why can't a generic mass storage device driver work? It seemed to work for the Nexus One. Am I missing something here?
I just updated to Windows 7 but not drivers for the Dinc. Any help where to find them?
View 9 Replies View RelatedMonitoring the traffic on the unrEVOked IRC channel, it's clear that there is a ton of confusion about the USB drivers needed, despite the excellent article on the unrEVOked site. I thought I'd maybe add to that or create an alternative article.
There are three different modes in which the Incredible (or the EVO!) can connect to a Windows system:
Disk Drive
ADB (USB Debugging and ClockworkMod Recovery)
BootLoader (while phone is in the HBOOT mode)
The drivers that come with the Android SDK can't do any of it because none of the interfaces for the Incredible are present in the .INF file. The drivers that come with HTC Sync can do #1 and #2, but cannot be used for rooting with unrEVOked because they don't support #3. The following link points to drivers which are universal; they will work for all three purposes on the Incredible (and the EVO as well).
unrEVOked modified USB Driver
You do not have to remove HTC Sync if you have it installed. These drivers will replace the ones that came from HTC Sync and be usable for that as well as rooting. The trick is getting these drivers to replace the ones you have from the Android SDK or HTC Sync or ??? (or simply installing them if you have no drivers yet). The idea is to plug your phone into USB while it's in HBOOT mode, forcing Windows to look for Bootloader drivers. Only the ones here provide that.
Anyway, here's how:
Uninstall HTC Sync, DoubleTwist, and DropBox from the PC. Sorry about this. Once these drivers are installed you may reinstall those and they will continue to work. These drivers are universal.
Unzip the file, leaving the folder Android USB Driver somewhere like on your desktop
Unplug your phone from USB
Power down your phone
Now simultaneously press the volume DOWN button and the power button, holding till the HBOOT screen appears
Now connect the USB cable between the phone and your PC
The word HBOOT (blue box with white letters) will change to HBOOT USB PLUG
On the EVO, wait till HBOOT cycles through an SD check (10 sec) then select select HBOOT USB at the bottom of the menu (using the vol keys to navigate and power button to select). Thanks to hperry for this.
Now look at your Windows Device Manager and see if you already have Android Phone listed for HBOOT as shown in one of the last two images (way) below. To see the Device Manager, right click My Computer, select Manage..., select the Device Manager. If you see the Android Phone, you're ready to root and can skip the rest of this. Otherwise, you do not have HBOOT-capable drivers, and you need to install them. Windows should be looking for drivers now. At this point things may differ between XP and Vista/7.
In XP, the New Hardware Found Wizard should appear. Tell it NOT to use Windows Update, and moving along, tell it to look in a specified location. It will pop up a file open dialog. Navigate to the Android USB Driver folder, click OK then click Next.
For Windows Vista/7 you might not see the New Hardware Found Wizard. Open the Device Manager (Right click My Computer, select Manage..., select the Device Manager). You will see an Android Phone node in the tree with a "caution" icon node beneath it. Right click on the caution-marked node and select Update Driver. Follow through specifying NOT to look in Windows Updatte and Install from a specified location. It will pop up a file open dialog. Navigate to the Android USB Driver folder, click OK, then click Next.
In either case, eventually the driver should install. At this point you have the universal drivers installed for the Incredible. They can also be used with the HTC EVO. Here's what you should see in the Windows Device Manager for each condition:
Phone Running Normally, USB Debugging Enabled, plugged in via USB:
Windows 7
Windows XP
Phone running HBOOT, plugged in via USB:
Phone showing HBOOT
Windows 7
Windows XP

tried to connect the G1 Android phone on Fedora 9. Is it required to install the USB drivers or not, if yes then where i will find the drivers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust got a HTC Legend and am very keen to get into Android development (having previously been expirenced with eclipse/java/gwt).
However, the USB ADB driver on the SDK doesnt support it, so I wondered how I could add it myself.
I feebly tried adding;
CODE:.......
to the inf file. But it didnt help. (mainly because I have no clue what I was doing)
I am currently having issues installing my G1 in development mode on Vista 64 Premium SP1. I have tried both installing the drivers that come with the latest SDK and also the ones here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446274.
Whenever I plug the phone in it comes up as an unknown USB device under device manger. When I go to update driver and point the installer at the correct driver location it either says 'the device driver is up to date' or when using the have disk option it says 'the folder specified does not contain a compatible software driver for your device'.
I have two machines, one a WindowsXP32, and one 64. Both with AMD64 chips. I have eclipse on both, and the SDK on both. I'm using the usb drivers with the HTC Legend (http:// groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/ 2b54d2ce1202b04b/dd6f9152cd50d64b?lnk=gst&q=usb+#dd6f9152cd50d64b).
On the 32bit one things work just peachy. Device recognised, and debugging working fine. However, the 64bit one doesn't seem to recognise the device. Windows recognise's the device, and windows device manage shows it, but "adb devices" lists nothing, and nothing shows up when trying to manually launch from eclipse.
I'm trying to use the SWM and when I have everything all set up it tells me I have no device set up. I looked to see if I could find drivers for me Xperia X10 and all I kept getting linked to was the sony PC companion that apparently had those drivers installed. When I installed it and did all the set up stuff it still wouldn't recognize my phone other than as a removable disk. I have the USB debugging turned on, .Net framework installed, and supposed the drives yet it still won't read my phone.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to set up an Android emulator to do some playing around with OpenGL ES on it, but I am stymied by the fact that, every time I run my program on it, it unceremoniously grenades itself. The problem (at least the first nasty red error line in the log) is a missing package called libhgl.so. This is the OpenGL driver file required for running OpenGL ES on Android devices, but for some reason, my emulator doesn't have it. Does anyone know where I can get drivers for the emulator, or how to get an emulator that already has them?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhy isn't Google playing nice with regards to the Linux Kernel Android code? Greg KH says the Android code is stagnant and as a result got removed recently: http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/android-kernel-problems.html
I know for a fact Greg KH bends over backwards to help Linux Kernel developers maintain their code, so hearing this news about the Android drivers being removed is very troubling. Hearing about all the hardware companies that now cannot get their own Android drivers into the main kernel is the worst of it. Google seems fairly evil lately, but everyone who should care (fellow Android developers, I'm looking at you) seems to just want to put their hands over their ears and sing "la la la la".
Android is not being handled in the true spirit of open source, and Greg KH's assessment of the situation is even more proof of that fact.
I have two tablets but on of them I've flashed and messed up (touch screen is not working).

Has anyone else had issues getting windows to recognize the drivers for their phone? I'm in the process of rooting my phone and I can't get fastboot to work with my phone. When I look under device manager on my laptop it says the drivers aren't recognized. I've tried windows vista 64 bit and windows xp 32 bit.

I'll try to be as detailed as possible.

I installed the HTC drivers, ADB worked fine, did my development and now I am done with the Evo. The problem is my Droid no longer works with ADB.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI got a wacom graphic tablett wich I want to use on my Android Tablet PC. Of course Android hasn't got a working driver for it, so thats why I want to install an opensource linux driver. So my first question is, if this might be possible. The linux driver is made for a 2.6 Kernel which of course is not complete the same as my 2.6 android Kernel, but are they similar enough to at least give it a try?
And I got an other question: A grafic tablett is you know... nothing else as a weird mouse so am I might be able to tell Android that it shoud use a simple mouse driver for the graphic tablett? Because my mouse is running well on it.
Android should become more like Windows. Android should be able to detect and recognize the different hardware configurations and adjust itself accordingly. This way, you hit two birds with one stone. No more fragmentation. No more differences in the UI, Custom UI will be entirely optional.
All the manufacturer has to do is make the hardware and provide the hardware drivers to Google. Simple as that. Everything will be so much easier. Phone manufacturers will be able pump out devices like crazy without any worries. Software developers won't have to worry about device compatibility. Come on Google, lets do it.

I assume this is because the drivers aren't installed. But I don't know how to install the "adb drivers".
