Trouble connecting to computer via adb/fastboot!

[scott62185]

I've done a lot of searching and tried the different suggestions people have mentioned on various sites but I STILL have trouble with "error: device not found" when I try to adb reboot bootloader from my computer. I was actually able to make a connection last night and then I'm not able to again today. I've installed/uninstalled and installed again both the drivers and HTC sync NUMEROUS times. It does show that my phone is being recognized on my computer, just don't know why it won't let me adb. Btw, relative noob here.

Thanks in advance for any help some kind soul might give to me.

Do you have usb debugging on?
Try to restart adb:
adb kill-server
adb start-server

Tried that.

You have the latest android SDK with packages installed ?

Or maybe some admin rights problems ?

Is there also a problem when you put the phone in fastboot mode and try various fastboot commands......or is it just adb commands ?

Not using any other extension cables ...only the one that came with the phone ?

Just thinking out loud here

Actually, not sure if I have the "lastest" android SDK...I installed it quite a while ago. Does that get updated?

 

[Mr Hofs]

Well i updated them some time ago....but never had any issues with that....so i'm guessing in the dark for a bit

I'll try googling it to see if I can find out if I can update mine. Thanks, Marcel! Always helpful.

Where does it show that the device is recognized? Windows device manager?

Did u try the fastboot thing .... When adb is not responding, go put the phone in fastboot USB without making changes and do

Fastboot devices

Just to check if fastboot is working ?

Not sure where to check it in device manager. It shows up on my toolbar ("device drivers installed" or something like that).

Try:
android update adb

Don't know exactly ( i'm dutch )

Configuration settings - device manager (or something similar) - device control ?

Do I type in exactly "fastboot devices?" When I do that nothing happens

 

[Mr Hofs]

It says waiting for device ?

In dosprompt

C:\fastboot\fastboot devices

No, it doesn't do anything (just goes back to C:\Fastboot>)

Try:
android update adb

[Mr Hofs]

Files are still in that dir ?

C:\fastboot\ 3 fastboot / adb files ?

Yeah, you actually gave me the files to put in there when you were helping me a few days ago. lol That's what's weird, it was working, then it wasn't, then it worked once, and now not again...

 

[Mr Hofs]

Yeah .... this is weird ! .... I'm thinking
