Trouble connecting to computer via adb/fastboot! - HTC One X

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?

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

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

ADB with Jellybean

Hi, has anyone managed to get ADB working with Jelly Bean? I'm running CM10 and I can't seem to get ADB working. I've downloaded the drivers from the SDK but windows still says it can't find the driver, even when I manually specify where the driver is.
Try 1wayjonny's Universal Naked Drivers over in his thread in the dev section. It's the best. Be sure to remove all traces of the old drivers first.
Do you have a adb debugging enabled on the phone? CM10 has this disabled by default.

And I'll add adb works when you are on booted and when you are on recovery.

If it's already booting then it's no longer in fastboot

Even today, a friend of mine installed the naked drivers, started adb, device found
I watched him as he did it, guiding him through the commands to push, reboot recovery, the works, and Windows 7 pulled it quite well.
I don't use windows at home, but he did it without troubles at all.
So yeah. ADB has been around for ages, and it will be coming back.
And it's the second proof I see: most of these so called issues with drivers, should be handled on <insert host OS here> forums and not on xda. Most of times, users just don't get it.

how to boot in recovery without using volume button

hello guys
i have a major problem i have installed a corrupted rom and i can't use my phone i need to boot in recovery but my volume button does not work
and my question is how i can boot recovery without using volume buttons
N.B:my phone is turned off
While it is switched on, if it is plugged into a computer, can you see it if you run the command 'adb devices'?
If so, try 'adb reboot recovery'

NOTHING ABOUT MY Problem
As it was mentioned above: with the phone turned off, if you plug the USB cable you should see it with 'adb devices' command. the LED should light (if I remember right in blue). if it does, run the command as mentioned above...
if not... I have no idea. Maybe you can contact with the developer of the ROM...

Yes, but from what I have seen it handles 'normal' scenarios.
Also, from my experience, he was trying to get the straight answer, without the need to read tens of pages...
The picture OP posted shows that either ADB is not installed or that he is trying to run it from an incorrect location. The guide that was posted has explanations for both of those problems.

Waiting for device no matter what

I have installed and reinstalled the usb drivers like 4 times with reboots in between. I was about to root, but after root i cant do anything. The main thing i want to do is flash a custom rom. I have the gnex tool kit, it says waiting for device (option 6), and the most recent drivers are from that toolkit. I tried command pront, Fastboot reboot-bootloader, it says waiting for device. I tried adb flash recovery recovery.img it says waiting for device. I tried 2 different cables and all my usb ports on my computer.
Im at a loss. I can still transfer files from my computer to my device. My computer detects it just none of these commands... god i wish i had an sd card slot... lol
Edit:
I also tried putting it inot fastboot mode by pressing the power and wolume up / down keys. It goes to the screen and says start. All commands still say waiting for device.
I feel like this is a driver issue but idk why.... i have tried all drivers...........
i have a samsung galaxy nexus l515 verizon cdma.

Unplug your phone from computer install the drivers from Samsung's website. (Google USB drivers for galaxy nexus i515) reboot computer and try again. Maybe u should install android SDK with adb and do it manually instead of using a toolkit. Those cause problems.

Ohhh the universal naked drivers. I never even thought of that. Actually i did. I have installed them same issue. I have fallowed the instructions in your first link prior to starting this thread. I appreciate the help but your attempt to call me lazy is wrong. Still unable to flash cwm or anything from the computer however i was able to flash cwrm touch today after buying the rom manager premium. Still doesnt explain why i cannot do it from my computer. Mind you i attempted this on my laptop (slackerware) and i did still have issues.
I think it is somthing with the port on my phone ror maybe somthing else. Regardless, im not lazy for i do know where google is and how to abuse all of her abilities. I know where the forum search button is also.
Drivers i have tried.
Naked nexus drivers
Windows native drivers
Slackerware mobile drivers
Samsung drivers
And what ever the gnex tool kit installs. No matter what i get waiting for device...

Are you confusing adb with fastboot, or was "adb flash recovery recovery.img" a typo? Anyway, forget the toolkit. Get adb/fastboot binaries from the 101 & FAQ, and try:
1) booted into Android: adb devices
This should list your device with a number. If the list is empty, adb cannot interface with your gnex.
2) booted into the bootloader: fastboot devices
This should also list your device with a number. If the list is empty, fastboot cannot interface with your gnex.
Note that the adb and the fastboot interface are different. If you installed drivers and got adb running, this does not automatically make fastboot working. Boot into fastboot, connect and use device manager to scout for unknown devices. Update using naked driver if necessary.

you are lazy. you're relying on a toolkit.
please root your phone the manual way, or at least try fastboot alone so we actually know what the problem is.
Thanks yeah that was a typo. I have the adroid bianarys. Adb and fastboot. I was typing. Fastboot reboot bootloader to try and get gnex tools to see the device. No luck.

I rooted manually no problems. Problems arose post root. This can be marked as solved for buying the app fixed my issue. With recovery i can flash roms on the device. No need for a computer anymore. Thanks to those who didnt attack me and make me cry. To those who did well... thanks anyways....

Again, driver issue. 'fastboot devices' should return your devices serial number. that command is the tell-tell sign that communication between fastboot host (PC/Mac) and client (device) see and recognise each other.
And please try to be flawless on the transcription of the exact commands used, to exclude the possibility of typos.

Then it maybe not be a driver problem: you need to update platform-tools through android-sdk, which has fastboot/adb binaries. 4.2.2 requires it.

if not a driver issue, it must be this.
install PDAnet on your device .. follow procedure of installation carefully ( should be installed on both pc and phone ) and when it was installed .when u enter your bootloader your phone will be recognize by your pc and wait for device will gone .
the method tested by me and took me one month two years ago to find .. on my g nexus first try to unlock .
PDAnet isntall drivers and everything you need to use adB commands ... if it helped give me thanks and let me know by pm .

2. Right click on Android 1.0 with the yellow ! mark on it.
3. Choose update driver.
4. Choose browse my computer.
5. Choose Let me pick from a list.
6. Scroll down and find the Samsung driver with newest date. Should be the driver you downloaded above. (Possibly dated 11/25/2011 ).
7. It will give you a warning about installing the driver, just click yes.

[Q] "Error: Device not found" in adb.

Hello friends,
I'm trying to install cyanogenmod and no matter what I do I consistently get the device not found error when I try to use "adb push cm-10.2.0-RC1-endeavoru.zip \sdcard\"
I know that in the cyanogenmod install guide it says it's probable that it's a driver issue. I've looked around for a good 2 hours trying to find what it might be, so I've tried reinstalling htc sync, I've tried uninstalling htc sync and using koush's universal adb driver, but nothing seems to work.
When using "adb devices" it doesn't give me the error, it just gives me "List of devices attached" which is empty. (I'm not sure if this is what it is supposed to do though)
Attached img of what I've been doing.
USB debugging is on. It's been automatically turned on whenever I connect it to my PC since I updated to 4.2.2 anyway.
I have no idea where to go from here. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry, I'm completely new to this. Do you mean normal recovery from bootloader or a custom recovery that I should of done but completely skipped due to my ignorance? (I also haven't unlocked bootloader so I'm assuming that's a misstep as well?)
Because all I get when I do the normal recovery is a picture of a phone with a red triangle and "!" combo.
Thanks
Yeah to install a custom rom it's mandatory to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery. And what i can tell from your post it that you really are a novice on things. Some tips ?
1: never start without a full battery
2: learn fastboot + commands
3: always make a stock rom nandroid backup before starting flashing !
Read up in this forum. Under the stickys there are some nifty guides. If you have questions after that just ask here.

Thanks for the tips!
After a while of toiling to try and unlock the boot loader manually and getting stuck at the load error for Unlock_code.bin, I found Hasoon2000's tool, so he is my god for now.
My query that I have is, Do I need a custom recovery like ClockWorkMod to create a nandroid back up? Because all I get when I try to go into recovery from the bootloader is this (img attached, not mine because I don't have another camera in the house but luckily I managed to find one on google img.)
I can't find anything saying that I do need a custom recovery, but then again it's not working when I try without one, so I'm not too sure where to go from here.
Thanks again
Please read carefully what i write, i know exactly what to do !
You need a custom recovery !
Sorry to be back again so soon but I'm stuck again, haha.
When I try to flash cwm I get "error: cannot load 'recovery.img'". When I try to use Hasoon2000's tool kit to do it for me it doesn't work either as it just says device not found and in the second command window it says that it can't load it's .img file either.
The recovery.img is in the same location as fastboot. My phone is in Fastboot in bootloader.
I'm typing "r:\Android\adt\sdk\platform-tools\fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Trying to auto complete recovery.img using tab does nothing (if that might indicate some sort of problem).
The only thing I can think of is that the MTP drivers never install properly but I read on this forum that it shouldn't affect fastboot.

Ok so I still couldn't do it manually on the other computer. Got the same errors as with the first. I tried flashing with Hasoon2000's tool again and noticed that it was trying to flash CWM.img while the recovery for it was actually called recovery.img. Renamed it to CWM.img and it flashed perfectly.
I assume it would of done the same on the original PC I tried it on.
No idea why it wouldn't work when I tried it manually, but yolo. Hasoon2000 is love. Hasoon2000 is life.
Holy hell Hasoon2000 has saved me again.
I flashed the kernal by accident and it got stuck in boot. So i just sideloaded the rom in H2K's tool and everything turned up Milhouse.
Yay congrats

And if it says can not load recovery that means it's named differently or that it's not placed in the same dir of the fastboot files. A common error is that people hide filename extensions in windows. Then rename the recovery to recovery.img.img and then it won't be found by fastboot

Accidentally Erased internal storage, phone only booting to bootloader, please help!!

Just rooted/s-off my device and decided to factory reset it to start using it for regular usage. I accidentally clicked erase internal storage in tmrp recovery and deleted the whole os on the phone as well. Is there any way to side load a rom with recovery to get the phone to boot up again or is my phone practically a brick till a RUU is released. I have the tmobile version.
Please Help!!
You can adb push a ROM then flash it or fastboot flash a rom directly from you computer.

i don't know why it would be failing at 100%...check to see if it copied, and if it didn't then try to fastboot flash it
I would just adb push. Much more reliable.

Care to share how thats done? i just want to get this phone working again lol
adb push romfilename.zip /sdcard/
It will look like it's hanging for about 5-10 mins. Then it will give a confirmation with bytes sent

I fastboot flashed the GPE Rom onto my T-Mobile M8...there's no stock RUU yet so this will have to do.

Alright I got it up and running bro. I appreciate it. Apprently the rom i was sideloading was the problem and failed to install when I tried installing it. ARHD is installing as I'm typing this. Thanks again.
Np. For future reference you cannot flash a rom using fastboot.
