Recognizing device

[GtEcH]

Alright, just having some issues with ADB recognizing my device. I'm trying to do the bootanimation as described in the thread from yesterday. I'll go into the command window and use 'tools\adb devices' and my Inc. still will not become recognized. What am I missing? Thanks.

I'll assume you're running Windows Vista or 7.

Open My Computer, and find the Android SDK folder.
Open it.
Find the tools folder.
Press shift, and right click on the tools folder.
Choose "open command window here" from the dialog that comes up when you shift + right click.
In that command window, type in

adb devices

Yea, I've got that far. Its after I do that it'll say 'List of devices attached' but doesn't list any. Inc. is plugged in with debugging enabled and i've tried both mount as disk drive and charge only. Nether work.

Sounds like your USB driver isn't installed. Windows (especially 64 bit) is huge PITA with this.

Download the latest version of HTC sync from HTC. Install it and reboot your computer, then try plugging the phone in WITH USB debugging enabled, and set it as charge only.

Thank you sir. Will try that.

If you are on Windows 7 64bit read this:

Workaround for HTC Hero Sync Problem in Windows 7 ? My Digital Life

I used those drivers placed into the folder specified in the site, and then my phone was recognized.

I'm actually running XP32(came stock on my HP netbook). Got her figured out. Thanks for the help!
