Un/Official (Windows) USB Drivers/ADB/Fastboot [Essential PH-1/Mata]
- Thread starter sd_shadow
- Start date
I have done that already too, its like the Google USB drivers are not fully installing if that makes sense !?
Thanks much sd_shadow I used your SDK Platform-Tools for Windows and finally able to get fastboot devices working and unlock bootloader.
Just to clarify
None of the tools I linked are mine, I'm just posting links to them and some modified instructions for the PH-1

I'm having the same issues as mr573162. I have uninstalled device, changed every usb setting and port on computer, uninstalled and reinstalled google drivers from android studio and still no device/ adb when I click through Mata. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Same exact issue here - Sprint variant here..
Can see the device in ADB, not in Fastboot. Can see "Mata" listed in device manager, but no matter what I do, the system refuses to recognize it.
Have tried multiple USB-C cables too..

Just for ish and giggles I redownloaded the drivers from Google (https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html)
Unzipped those drivers to my desktop, and then double clicked on Mata. Then I said I'd pick the drivers, double clicked on all devices, said "Have disk" and browsed to the driver folder I just unzipped on my desktop. It worked...
Now to flash Lineage..
I think my issue is different and haven't seen anyone reporting. I'm on window 10 and when plugin the phone, in device manager, I saw this "Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)".
No matter what I tried, it just cannot recognize the device. Anyone having same or similar issue?
Thanks.
Or if anyone can find out from your device tree and get the PH-1 Device ID?

If anyone wants, Essential has released official drivers for Windows here: https://essential-live.herokuapp.com/developer/current-builds
I downloaded the driver from essential website and still got the same issue.
I also tried to use mac with adb.
it works fine in normal boot up and under bootloader using fastboot.
However, if in recovery, it cannot detect any device using "adb devices".
Yeah....I've installed every driver known to man. ADB recognizes the phone until it gets into recovery mode. Then it stops recognizing the phone? I'm at my end here. Haha. Any ideas?? And yes I've followed every instruction on this thread and others as well. I'm not new to ADB or fastboot. I have to be missing something obvious?
Edit: Got it. Apparently there was "one" more driver known to man.

At recovvery, if you see no command, hold power button and press volume up button once. You should see a menu for selecting adb sideload.
I keep getting FAILED (remote: Flashing Unlock is not allowed. I can see the device with 'fastboot devices' tried both the google/essential drivers.... any ideas?
Edit: the setting wasn't enabled in dev options... I miss the days of just fastboot flash oem unlock

Oh thanks for the reply, those drivers didn't work for me either, they don't seem to be installing properly although it says they've been installed. Guess I can't unlock my bootloader for now then.
Your selecting the correct driver in device manager?

10Warning if your intent is to Unlock the Bootloader.
At this time 24 Sept 2017
There are no Stock Firmware Images, No Custom Recovery, No Root Method.
Without any of those available Unlocking Bootloader has little Value, and lots of risks.
Official PH-1 windows drivers are up, with Official builds.
https://essential-live.herokuapp.com/developer/current-builds thanks for update @bmg1001 -14 Nov 2017
I haven't seen any Official Windows USB drivers (adb/fastboot) posted any where so i just used Google Pixel Drivers.
Adb seems to work with Windows default drivers, but i had to update ADB.exe version
