I don't think this is an issue for just the 3T, I think it's an issue with Windows 10.

Apparently, ever since an update last year, Windows 10 doesn't install unverified drivers even though the installation wizard shows a successful installation.

I've read that some people were able to fix this "fastboot devices" issue by installing the drivers after disabling driver signature verification in Windows 10.

Neo3D, have you tried installing the drivers (running the adb-setup) after disabling driver signature verification?

https://www.howtogeek.com/167723/ho...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/

I think my issue is a mix of the above as well as some error I made in uninstalling drivers...?

I just want to remove all my adb/fastboot/3T related drivers and install fresh while in "disable driver verification" mode...thought Neo3D's tool or deleting them via Device Manager would do the trick, apparently not.

No, that's not it. I myself use Windows 10 x64 from the beginning and never had any issues. Try with a different usb port.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhaseOfFact:
Interesting, you didn't do anything before running the adb-setup tool?

Haven't tried using another USB port yet, so I will try that once I get home and report back. Thank you for the suggestion.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nicesoni_ash:
No, I didn't. I had the issue with installer so I manually edited a bit. I uploaded my version here for those who are getting "0 files copied error".

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhaseOfFact:
He was talking to me, I'm having a similar issue on my OnePlus 3T.

I tried using another USB port but same result =/

How are the phone and "ADB interface" suppose to be shown in Device Manager?

I don't think the way mine are shown are correct.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nicesoni_ash:
Modem should only be visible if your phone is on and connected through adb. That's my understanding however I never checked it. I am not on my pc so once I am on my pc, I can answer that better.

Hello everyone.

First of all great post! this really makes the installation easy.

However I would like to know if anyone had the same issue then me, I am trying to install but is failing, is always saying "The system cannot find the path specified." and the installation fails.

I am on Windows x64 and my HD are encrypted with bitlocker, is this a possible issue? Any help will be much appreciated.

output of the installation:

Do you want to install ADB and Fastboot? (Y/N)Y

Install ADB system-wide? (Y/N)Y

Hi, thank you for your reply.

I have tried that installer, unfortunately is the same.

I am not sure how can I change the executable, any tips on how to do that?

Cheers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhaseOfFact:
You can open the .exe with WinRAR and edit the install.bat file using notepad.

Should also be able to change the file extension to .zip and open it as a zip file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neo3D:
Did you move your ../My Desktop folder to a volume other than C:\?

If so, that could be the issue. Go into your C:\ drive and make a Desktop folder:

C:\Users\My Name Here\desktop

This is better than messing around with the original installer or downloading and running an .exe from a stranger (aka, CIA agent) on the internet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fattheman:
Yes, unfortunately here at work this pc's have roaming profiels so folders like desktop are on the network not localy, that must be the reason, anyway I have a mac at home I am going to install windows in a parallel vm and try.

Not for nothing. I'm I just installed 1.4.3 on Win10 Pro using admin cmd prompt. I installed for all users (why the f not?) and installed the included Google drivers. It worked flawlessly on my Galaxy Tab S2 T-810 2015 Wi-Fi. I mention this because every time before I also needed to install Kies to get it to connect.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fattheman:
Thank you so much, that worked fine I didn't know what this was looking for, definitely is the roaming profile thing.

I just tried plugging in my 3T and installing the drivers via adb-setup again on another Windows 10 PC, exact same issue is happening =/

The device and ADB Interface is shown in the same fashion in Device Manager as the screenshot I attached in my past post...not sure if this is an issue with WIndows 10 or 3T , but can anyone give some advice/troubleshooting steps? I've been at this for 2 weeks now and haven't been able to move forward at all...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Induced_Apathy:
Tool doesn't seem to work on my Win7x64 system. YMMV.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PhaseOfFact:
Finally fixed!

After 2 full weeks of pretty driver troubleshooting, I was going to give up on rooting if I couldn't fix this issue by tomorrow.

Using the tool that [MENTION=763587]Neo3D[/MENTION] mentioned in this thread, I deleted ALL android related drivers, not just the ones listed as ADB or OnePlus 3T (I deleted all drivers associated with my past android phones as well).

I then rebooted my PC, executed the adb_setup tool, booted up my 3T in fastboot mode, plugged it in, opened device manager, and to my surprise, my 3T was finally listed under "Other devices". I then just manually updated the drivers, tested "fastboot devices" and it now works without problem.

Planning to unlock bootloader and root tomorrow, thank you for the help!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Neo3D:
Great job! I gave up on trying to get Fastboot to to work.

I'll archive the tool right here just in case the developer's site goes down. It's okay because it's Freeware. License screen cap attached, as well.

Standalone sdk platform-tools were availble even before, just not with such nice page to download it.

So this wasn't necessary even before, but it also include drivers (that aren't part of platform-tools package) and quick, easy to use installer that add it also to you PATH (i can imagine many guys copying binaries to every folder where they need them or messing up PATH variable)

:)

[MENTION=4638083]Snoop05[/MENTION]

On first post please update info about download link. Version is 1.4.3 (not 1.4.2)

Is there a portable version (without installer)?

Which version are adb.exe/fastboot.exe? Could you please include this info in changelog? Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bsoplinger:
Just a FYI for those like me that forgot or just didn't know it can cause problems... I was unable to install the 1.4.x version although the older 1.3 would install because my user name and hence my User folder name had a blank in it. This is on a Windows 10 system but I'd guess it applies to earlier too.

Unfortunately my device wouldn't let me sideload with the older version of adb/drivers in the 1.3 version of this tool. My simple fix was to create a temporary administrator account that had no blanks then proceed with rooting while logged into this temporary account. I'm just partway through that process so I will edit this once I know if the updated adb drivers which I choose to install system wide work on my 'regular' admin account/login work or not. Hopefully everything is good and I can delete the dummy account

Im going to reboot and try again.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] steefzz:
Hi i think i found a possible solution for this.

I also strugled with this issue. Then i noticed that de *.bat is trying to put soms stuff on de dekstop folder.

Usually that location is C:\Users\{username}\Desktop

However i am using onedrive and syncing my desktop to the cloud wich made my location of dekstop changed to C:\Users\{username}\OneDrive\Desktop

When i created a folder named "Desktop" in the folder C:\Users\{username}\ and ran the installer as admin it worked as i should :)

Hope you might find the solution in this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OldSkewler:
I need some help here. I went thru the executable a few times and this is what is happening: the drivers seems to be installed correctly, as I can connect my phone and under Device Manager I see "Android Composite ADB Interface" - before running the tool I had MTP.

Now the issue is I cannot find the ADB Folder anywhere. Tried installing it system wide and user only but nothing. A screen pops up at the end of the installation with the following message:

ERROR: Invalid command line parameter "Skweler\Desktop\adb-installer.log"

I already tried downloading the tool from another server but same results, I run it and look for the folders as listed above but they are not created. Not sure what is going on here. Anyone?

Windows 7 x64

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kulvertti:
Do you try to install it with administrator privileges? And if so what the adb-installer.log says in you desktop?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OldSkewler:
Yes, installed with Admin Privileges. The installation window says "0 files copied". No files are created in the desktop.

Just tried on a different machine, also W7 x64, and same exactly results.

BTW, I am running the 1.4.3 tool.

-------------------------------------

Going thru the 100+ pages on this thread trying to find out why the adb folder is not being created, I came across an alternative to the tool, a direct link to the SDK Platform Tools. It includes adb.exe & fastboot.exe. Does that mean I can give up troubleshooting the 15-sec ADB tool? I suspect the end goal is to simply have the adb & fastboot installed, correct?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kulvertti:
So basically something preventing you or the installer have write access to those folders. You could try to see if problem is in those folders security settings. But you are correct. The main goal is to to have working adb and fastboot and mentioned SDK Platform Tools are obvious alternative.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OldSkewler:
Thanks for the reply and confirming the SDK Tools would suffice. Everything is working (adb & fastboot) but unfortunately I could not figure out why the 15 Sec ADB Tool was not working.

download the app here called zadig: http://zadig.akeo.ie/

it downloads the missing drivers and installs it.

i connected my device (Z5 E6653) to the computer and put it in fastboot mode before i did the following:

1. Download the tool, start it.

2. Select the "S1Boot fastboot" device

3. Select the WinUSB Driver

4. Click Install
