Kindle Fire 2 7" - How To Install ADB Drivers On Windows

inflicted_1999,

We know this one. Once you get the driver installed, the following will happen:

MTP will change to Portable Devices > Kindle

Unknown will change to Kindle > Android ADB Interface

Now, how do you accomplish this task? Take these steps:

Take 3 minutes and watch this video, please: How to Install ADB Video

This video will help you to understand the manual installation method for the next driver. Please download: usb_driver

Extract the alternative driver to your desktop and follow the install instructions at the bottom of this response

The alternative driver originates from the Android SDK and is universal for just about any Android device.

The alternative driver instructions are for Windows XP but can be used with Windows 7 and Vista.

Once we get ADB installed then let's plugin the Kindle to your computer USB to see if it initializes properly.

Once this driver has been properly installed you will see "Android Composite ADB Interface" under "Kindle Fire" in the Windows Device Manager which is located by Right Hand Mouse Click Computer, Choose Properties, then Devices or Device Manager. Expand the tree. Expand Kindle. This is where you will see "Android Composite ADB Interface".

Amazon Notes regarding this ADB Driver can be found here: Amazon ADB Notes

ALTERNATIVE DRIVER INSTALL (Vista/XP/Windows7):

Windows XP

To install the Android USB driver on Windows XP for the first time:

1. Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.

2. Right-click on My Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.

3. Select Device Manager in the left pane.

4. Locate and expand Other Devices in the right pane.

5. Right-click Unknown Device and select Update Driver. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.

6. Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

7. Select Search for the best driver in these locations; un-check Search removable media; and check Include this location in the search.

8. Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located on your desktop \usb_driver\.)

9. Click Next to upgrade the driver. Sometimes this triggers MTP to update, if this happens stop here and begin the Root procedure as outlined here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2069117 - otherwise proceed to step the next step to update MTP.

10. Locate and expand Other Devices in the right pane.

11. Right-click MTP and select Update Driver. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.

12. Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

13. Select Search for the best driver in these locations; un-check Search removable media; and check Include this location in the search.

14. Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located on your desktop \usb_driver\.)

15. Click Next to upgrade the driver.

Once the driver installs correctly, you will see a drive named "Kindle" in My Computer and there will be no more Yellow marks in Windows Device Manager.

Kindle Fire HD and 2 Root Problem - ADB Driver Problem

inflicted_1999,

You are not being a pain, sometimes it takes several posts - I have seen up to 10 - to resolve a difficult situation. OK, so what is your Operating System?

Please drop to a Command and type the following:

ping 4.2.2.2

Does this respond with packets? If the response is something like "no internal or external command can be found...", then proceed to patch you computer using this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2086210 - when you are done please post "completed, moving on to Root" in that thread, not this one.

Finally, do you get an error when you install the original driver or did it install without error? Do you have ADB Enabled under the Device Tab? Do you have any security software installed like Norton Internet Security? Do you have plenty of free disk drive space?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inflicted_1999:

inflicted_1999,

OK, so we know the variables are OK, now let's dig into ADB, please open a command prompt:

adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices

If the commands work you need to remove the Android SDK prior to using Root MANY ANDROID. Please reply back with the progress.

Root the Kindle Fire 2 with Windows - Noob (Simple) Version

inflicted_1999,

Beautiful, you are ready! First we MUST get rid of Android SDK since Root MANY ANDROID will fail with the SDK installed. So either go to Windows Add/Remove Programs and remove the Android SDK or use Windows Search - find the folder named "platform-tools", one you find it, rename it to "platform-tools-bak".

Once you have renamed or removed the SDK, then we can Root the Kindle Fire 2:

Plug the Kindle back into USB if it is not already plugged into USB.

1. Download Root MANY ANDROID! to your desktop. Extract to your desktop. This package includes updated adb daemons.

NOTE WINDOWS 7 USERS: You need to open a command prompt "as Administrator" when running the above utility batch files RunMe.bat - otherwise Windows will respond with "Permission Denied".

Make sure the Kindle is still plugged into USB.

Root Step 1: Run RunMe.bat from Root MANY ANDROID! through a command window as noted:

Double Mouse Click and Open the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 folder.

Next Single Left Mouse Click on the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 folder toolbar.

This highlights the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 folder.

Note: Make sure none of the files within the Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 are highlighted in blue.

Next Press the SHIFT Key, next Right Hand Mouse Click

Choose "Open command window here"

A Command window will open, finally type

RunMe.bat

Choose option 1, Run Normal Method and ignore errors. Pay attention, you will need to answer "Restore" a dialogue box on the Kindle. If you are asked for an 'encryption password', enter the password you use to sign onto Amazon. Click on Restore. When the program has completed, the Kindle will Reboot.

The forum notes can be found here: Root MANY ANDROID! Forum.

Root Step 2: When the Kindle reboots it will have Root.

Root Step 3: Please navigate to the Apps Folder and find Superuser on the Device, click to Launch Superuser, then Reboot.

You are now Rooted, you may move on to How to Install Google Play Store here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35962244

[HTC One X] Dekkenz:
Hey,

I noticed that around two days ago my HOX started acting up.

It has low to no signal most of the time, no data connection, or it shows the data connection with the "E" letter.

I have rooted it long time ago, and ran RENOVATED rom, and had no problems. it started without me doing any alterations.

So I switched to Revolution to make sure it is not rom related, and the issue persists.

Any ideas what could be the problem? tried searching for it, nothing seemed useful.

Phone details:

Kernel version: 3.1.10

Baseband version: 5.1204.162.29

Build number: 3.14.401.31 CL128187 release-keys

Thanks!

[HTC One X] nikufellow:

[HTC One X] Dekkenz:
Changing the network, by that you mean trying to change the SIM?

I have tested another SIM and I still had the same issues. and my SIM seemed to be working fine on another device.

GetLIR reported that I have the correct versions. I am really clueless as to what is the problem..
[HTC One X] nikufellow:
Re: Low/No signal and low/no data connection.

yeah that's what i meant - did you try a factory reset ?

And if that doesn't help either i think you should backup everything and get back to stock then start everything again from square 1 .

why fix it if it ain't broken ?
[HTC One X] Dekkenz:
I did try a factory reset, it did not help.

I am back at my stock rom and it is still the same. Hardware issue?
[HTC One X] nikufellow:
Re: Low/No signal and low/no data connection.

i cannot say for sure that its a hardware issue but that seems likely as you've said that this whole thing began all of sudden without you messing up anything so you better check with nearby service centre .

why fix it if it ain't broken ?
[HTC One X] Dekkenz:
Thanks for the help, I have managed to fix it.

and with Hox is almost very low, or no signal, and constant breakups in withing calls.

sending it back to service is pain in the ass, its far, postage, time to wait for them to fix it, again.... :rolleyes:

[Galaxy S III General] Stianbl:
Additional information:

So, I'm not sure what stock on my phone anymore.

I did root it once before, and it worked good (did it through Odin). Then the 4.1.2 update came, and I updated normally through Kies. Root was removed in the process. So, before I rotted it yesterday, I was developing on it, and that worked nicely. But I wanted to root it to connect ps3 controller to play games. So I used the Toolbox (V7.0.0) to root it, but they did not have my exact model, only XXELLA. I used that. And root works nice. But Cant develop to it anymore.

This is my information now:

I9300XXELL4

Kernel:3.0.31-742798

Did the rooting process change my kernel?

EDIT:

Ok, just to help me understand a little here. I do not know the connection between firmware and kernel, but was my kernel altered when I rooted my phone?

I see many others having problem with new kernels, but I only used the Samsung Toolkit v7.0.0 to root my device using XXELLA (my model is XXELL4).

Did this process do anything to my kernel? And how can I get the original kernel to my phone if I need that?

[Galaxy S III General] m134boy90:
Helped me out

Hi Stianbl,

I got exactly the same problem, and this solution fixed it, so i hope it does for you too.

The reason for "permission denied" is that apk files uploaded to /data/local/tmp had to low permissions, and the installer process obviously did not have permissions to read any such file.

I never found a solution, but have a workaround that satisfies me. I have simply moved/symlinked the tmp directory to the SD card. Since SD card is formatted as FAT, it does not have owners/permissions and all files created there are always readable by everyone. So open a terminal emulator on your phone. Get root ("su") and type in:

# cd /data/local

# mv tmp tmp-old # (or simply rm -rf tmp)

# mkdir /mnt/sdcard/tmp

# ln -s /mnt/sdcard/tmp ./tmp

I hope i could help you

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Hi Guys,

Losing my patient on laggy Samsung Dialer and Contacts, so I decided to replace it with AOSP dialer and contacts. It didn't work out 100%, but it works to some extend :D

Contacts - so far all working as it should.

Dialer - in call screen doesn't work. It will use Samsung in call screen instead. Well, is good too because I can use call recording feature :D

Missed called - show in lockscreen but only open to contacts instead of the one who had called.

If you wish to install AOSP Dialer & Contacts, here's how:

1) Samsung mms.apk won't work with AOSP contacts. So you will need to replace the SecMms.apk with AOSP mms.apk. You can do that from here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36617379

2) Next, download the zip file below. Then navigate to system/app. Find SecContacts.apk and rename it to SecContacts.apk.bak (do not delete)

3) Reboot into recovery and flash the zip file you just downloaded. All contacts will be cleared. So make sure you have backup.

4) Reboot your phone. Navigate to system/app. Find ContactsProvider.apk (not SecContactsProvider.apk) and rename it (do not delete) to ContactsProvider.apk.bak

That's it. If you found any bug, please let me know. Or if you have other method to get AOSP/CM10 Dialer and Contacts to work with Samsung based rom, please share.

Thanks.

Do this at your own risk.

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] fOmey:
Sadly I wasn't able to get this working..

Also the step where we rename contactsprovider after a initial reboot.. maybe theres some way we can merge contactsprovider similar to the mms method.

Would love to see this working tho !
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
What errors you received?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] fOmey:
No errors in particular.. dialer didnt show up in launcher.. Iv added this as a aroma option in my rom, so I havnt followed your instructions exactly right..

Hence why im wondering if we can do a similar method to mms.

EDIT: This has to be possible look at chameleon rom on the SII, his managed to get a whole bunch of AOKP & CM stuff working on stock..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Yeah, hopefully some great developers can help to merge the apks into Samsung framework. In the meantime, this is a workaround.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] granets:
or you can use Ex Dialer with the ICS theme. No lag, and it's somewhat better than AOSP/CM dialers. It has lots of options to chose from, it's free and has an option to be kept in memory
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Yup. Is a good option too if you don't want to mess around with system files :)
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Mr. Hoax:

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
May I know which rom version you running?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] fOmey:
LLC... question tho the included files in the zip have they been modified at all ? Or are they default cm10 apks ?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Is default from cm10. But there seem to have many versions. I will upload another version for you to try it.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] shido525:
Null 19.1
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] fOmey:
Ill experiment a little when I get home.. whats the relevance of including and then renaming contactsprovider from cm10..
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Contact.apk required the file to be present. Deleting it caused FC. Since we already have SecContactsProvider.apk running, there is no point leaving ContactsProvider.apk running too. Is fine though if you do not want to rename it.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
I will upload another version of zip file for you to try again in about half an hour later.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Arsaw:
Delete previous zip file and try this one:
