Is there a way to catch it offline?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
It is a hit or miss deal. Some times it works, some times it doesn't. I ran into the issue while rooting mine and just kept at it till I succeeded. One plus is that after you root you never have to worry about it not detecting the device properly.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
Am I doing it right overall though.

1. Switch out SD card right before getting into recovery so there is absolutely nothing on the SD Card. (I've noticed if you let it boot it puts a LOS.DIR file or something of that sort.

fermunky had a similar problem and said once he installed everything a certain way he got it "offline" right away.

Is there a step-by-step I should be trying? Maybe another post I haven't read yet?

I'll keep trying, but it's kind of seeming like a lost cause. I've only been trying 2 days (Ha ha:() After I surpass 4 days or so I'll give up and wait for Wes for the hook up.

Ultimate fix for device detection!!!

Uninstall EVERY driver (USBdeview) for anything android, i mean everything.

Installl HTC SYNC for espresso(any other software, PDAnet, Android Explorer.... needs to go). Dont let any drivers install while the phone is on!

Power off the phone and then plug your usb into it (phone needs to be usb debugg on and in sync mode).

Boot phone into the bootloader and the only driver it will install is the ADB driver which , without loop or multiple recovery boots or anything the phone will be detected.

I tried EVERY method in these forums and this worked perfect , went straight to pushing files, and only took 20 minutes to get it all the way to slidemeroot2. works great and everytime i need clockwork i can push the update without the problem of the device not being detected even after all the other drivers installed when i rebooted the phone. It seems that the other drivers were killing the adb function???? dunno, but i no longer have an undetected device, ever!

Also, i suggest if you want to get back into clockwork easily, plug in the phone while in normal operation mode and the adb reboot recovery that joker.

Hope this helps some, and thanks to all that have gotten us this far.

Straight to "recovery" not "offline"!

Ok is this good or bad? It's not what the video nor website says, but it's different and different is good!

Just lists the HT........ recovery over and over??? Can I start everything from here?

Dude if this works I'll buy you a beer!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
I'd be glad to move it.

No biggie man. Just wanna figure it out and you can move this at will if you like.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sk8rbebop:
If you have it in recovery, hit volume up and power. It should display the recovery menu. Try pushing the update file over.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] turboyo:
hit update.zip on the phone first!!! it will fail and mount the sd .. then start pushing files!!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mtjnkee:
moderator : There should only be 1 thread on this. Please choose 1 close the others

To: 2Noob4U, What kind of "failed" did it say, there are many different errors it can throw back at you (not signed, not fully signed, no update found, blah blah blah), first off you HAVE to attempt to flash the update.zip in the normal recovery to mount it, then you trick it by adb pushing the update zip when the green bar (behind the yellow letters) starts to load. This should be your second attempt at the update.zip. and if your adb devices says offline or shows no devices it wont work at all.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
Time to close the thread.

Sorry about opening another thread. As I stated in my first post I wasn't trying to upset anyone.

However I did find a link to the original thread:

Use this one!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
Tried this from another computer and same results.

I think I've given up. Will there be another way to root the device in the future?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] 2Noob4U:
Thanks

Thanks to all who keep posting to help me out. Hopefully I figure it out, but it's not looking good.

I can get to the recovery screen by pressing Power and Volume Up. If I put the files on my SD Card can I push them from there?

I couldn't push them the only time I got into offline in loop. I can't seem to get offline to come back up when I loop. Tried everything. Reformated SD Cards, HTC Sync, PDAnet, Uninstall everything with USBDeview and start over and over and over again.

Tried another computer with Vista 32bit last night and the same results. Maybe I just suck! Hopefully I figure it out cause I never like giving up.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Code3VW:
I tried the recommendations...it did not work...

Upon rebooting into the white boot screen everything looked good, Android 1.0 installed and I did a screen shot (USBDeview1 and 2) to show what driver loaded.

However, once I hit the recovery all the rest of the drivers loaded, some failed as you can see in the Devices image I uploaded, and no such luck getting the phone to show recovery...

I'm almost convinced that my phone is defective... :(

[myTouch 3G Slide General] smokincuban05:
OMG

This worked for me on the first try!!! I also changed out my sd card.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sovereignty68:
Driver has nothing to do with mine not catching the device. It was the SD card. I had SanDisk 8GB Ultra in the phone and couldn't get adb to detect the phone. Then I swapped SanDisk 8GB Ultra out with the one (Samsung 8GB Class 2) that originally came with it. ADB immediately detects the phone after a reboot. And then I tested 1GB Class 1, SanDisk 8GB Class 6, TopRAM 16GB Class6, none of them work. Only Samsung 8GB Class 2 sdcard is not causing adb disappearance in recovery mode. Here's what I tried:

1st Computer

XP SP3, ADB driver from SDK

Generic 1GB Class 1 - failed

SanDisk 8GB Ultra - failed

TopRAM 16GB Class 16 - failed

Samsung 8GB Class 2 - OK

2nd Computer

Windows 7 x64 - HTC Sync driver

Generic 1GB Class 1 - failed

SanDisk 8GB Ultra - failed

TopRAM 16GB Class 16 - failed

Samsung 8GB Class 2 - OK

3rd Computer

Windows 7 - PDANet driver

Generic 1GB Class 1 - failed

SanDisk 8GB Ultra - failed

TopRAM 16GB Class 16 - failed

Samsung 8GB Class 2 - OK

I also tested 3 different MT3GS, 2 whites, 1 black, ALL came out same result. I'm pretty sure ADB not detecting the phone has to do with the SD card.

Alright. My wife wouldn't let me mess around with her phone for awhile. However I did finally root it today in about 5 minutes using this tutorial. Hope this helps.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] elliotshoe:
Here is how I got it to work pretty consistently on Windows 7. I had the same exactly issues. What I did was first to swap the SD card. I used a 1gb card for my DS. Then ditch the loop.bat method. Once you understand what it is trying to do, you can work out the timing yourself.

Try this:

1) Boot the phone into hboot and highlight 'Recovery'.

2) On your computer type 'adb devices' in the console, but do not press enter.

3) While keeping one hand on the phone and one hand on the keyboard select 'Recovery'.

4) On your computer press enter and then press the up arrow. 'adb devices' should be on the screen again. Keep running 'adb devices this way.

5) Once you get the device to show offline in 'adb devices' quickly unplug the usb cable and replug it into the phone.

I found that my phone would always appear offline right before the tmobile screen switched to the black recovery screen. If I pulled the cable right when it appeared offline in that split second it would always come up.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] dcowboys2184:
didn't work either !!!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] falken98:
I went back and looked at your posts... not once do you say what you are having trouble with, just that it doesn't work. Not only does that add nothing to the discussion it does not enable you to get any assistance.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Armyjon88:
Once again there "IS NO DIFFERENCE" in the unlockr method and eugenes method

also the goal of the loop.bat file is to cache the device as offline all the file does is repeat "adb devices" sometimes it catches it sometimes it doesn't that's why in eugenes method he tells you to do it over

And you could also pull your sim card it worked for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] k_chupe:
device offline

what causes the device offline error?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Armyjon88:
Adb.exe which is in the tools directory cannot detect the state of the device due to the recovery update in the recent 1.35 firmware update for the slide, to eliminate the error a patch for the adb driver for the device and/or adb.exe from the sdk would have to be devised before it will recognize the phones state.

I'm pretty sure that's the problem.

Edit: I believe if you run the command "adb get-state" it will return "unknown" hence the device offline error

Thanks!

Thanks a bunch for the tutorial! We really do appreciate it. I just had a couple questions about 2 of the steps.

STEP 6.

OPEN Terminal

(APPLE + SPACE and type Terminal, press enter.)

Now, CD to the SDK/Tools Directory.

It should be where we left it.

/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Documents/AndroidSDK/tools/

Terminal SHOULD open with it already in your USERNAME

Type cd Documents/AndroidSDK/tools/

I got lost where it says "Now, CD to the SDK/Tools Directory." I do not really know what the CD means and what I should be typing into Terminal?

Also should my phone already be plugged in to my Mac?

Please let me know and thanks!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
I flashed the Eng Build, then SlideMEROOT2 and then the new radio (you need this). Just follow the how-to's already posted, but remember to type ./ before the commands in Terminal.

Ex. ./adb devices Instead of adb devices.

There were a couple people who were trying to keep their original stock rom, but slidemeroot2 is basically the original rom. Plus, someone posted the original stock backup, so flash away.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
It's no more "wrong" than your code...

The first assumes that you've configured your shell to link the "adb" command to the adb "app" in the sdk/tools directory. Your code assumes that you will be activating the script while "within" that very directory.

The code, IMHO, should read:

...
[PATH TO SDK/TOOLS/]adb devices
...

And the OS X user should be instructed to insert their own path. ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
WRONG the code running in the shell is to continuously run adb devices... which to do so correctly would have to be implemented with ./ in front to run correctly on a mac... dont try to correct what is right i will school u

and seeing as he clearly instructs u to place those apps within the tools folder and "cd" to it... means that the user should have those commands ready at hand which is included in the folder...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Gen00:
Ur right.. that is the right way..
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
also for those of u having problems with the loop step where it never sticks... try a different memory card... i was having problems with the stock card... so i tried a different card and it worked perfectly... with no problems
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
LOL. Okay, tough guy. ;)

The fact is that the active directory in your terminal is irrelevant to the actual rooting process. If you want to argue about it, have at it. I really don't care.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
Yes, in terminal you must type ./adb devices, but within the .sh you can just issue adb devices and it works just fine. It is because you are issuing a command from within a script and OS X understands you better when you use them. ;)

As for the memory card trick everyone is perpetuating, tis but a superstition and whatever floats your boat, while you attempt to get adb to stick. When I rooted mine, it took five to ten tries. Rooting my girlfriend's, on the other hand, took nearly 15-20 min for it to catch.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
within the shell command command it has to be ./adb devices or it fails at command line 4 which is the problem i was having until i changed it in the shell and it worked... along with a few others...

and as far as the memory card thats the issue... i tried 5 different memory cards one always worked the others never stuck... it may have something to do with the way the memory card is coded... my 16gb mem card out my hd2 is the only one that worked... not really a superstition
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
The memory card has nothing to do with the rooting process whatsoever. With that said, a lot of the memory cards shipping with the slides are misformated. The first thing I did was backup my card, swap it out with a class 10 16 GB card and set up a 1GB ext4 partition. Then I copied the files back to the FAT partition and all was well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
yet with all the cards i tested which are formatted correctly and running perfectly on all my devices... and even tried useing my class 6 8gig with is partitioned for my og mytouch didnt work... dude stop trying to correct me i got this... worry bout ya own lil world
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Oy vey. Seriously? The rooting process is a hit or miss operation. Your sdcard doesn't even come into play for a second. You could probably remove the darn thing and be successful.

Please, for heaven's sake, just listen to sk8rbebop, myself or any of the numerous other people saying in no uncertain terms that the sdcard issue is a myth. Don't perpetuate something that is entirely unrooted in reality.

Sheesh...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
how can it be unrooted in reality when in reality it works and im proving that... its mighty funny that it doesnt stick unless this specific memory card is in my device... and u stating that it doesnt come into play is wrong... when u load ur phone into bootloader it does check ur "memory card" for an nbh image which is where i believe the problem lies... it accesses ur memory card just like the og mytouch did to locate a gold card... dont argue with me when it is just another work around that just may work seeing as IM PROVING THAT IT DOES INDEED WORK
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Oy vey. Fine, believe what you want. What's *actually* helping you root the device is sticking gum on your nose, turning your baseball cap backwards, rubbing your lucky rabbit foot and reciting the pledge of allegiance. You just haven't realized it yet.

Stay crunchy.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
dude wtf is ur problem... if it can possibly help someone whose having the issue y r u having such an issue with it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
@HebrewToYou ROFL!!!

@shadow The memory card issue would only be true if one never connected and another always worked. How do you account for the fact that a Slide won't connect the first 20 times and then connects the 21 time (same memory card). Your variable is unstable and the assumption is coincidental. I suggest you recite the pledge of allegiance backwards.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] shadowleo85:
well seeing as with 3 other mem cards and over 50 times of trying it never sticks yet with the 4th memory card it sticks every single time... would pretty much show that the sd is in fact affecting it in some way... i have tested my theory with over 200 trys altogether... 50 on each card... 3 always fail 1 always connects... so riddle me this... if all 3 sdcards never stick and 1 sdcard always makes it stick than how can it not be sdcard related?

Nothing. lol. Unplug the device and reattach it. Now try and the adb command. If it doesn't work, repeat the process. This is the tricky part that most people get dishearten and give up. In the tutorial, I tell where you to restart from.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Rhatfield25:
well fudge. I completed the tutorial, and i went to flash the kanged cm 5.0.8, it took me back to the stock recovery, i clicked, run update.zip, and it said signature was incorrect or whatever, so i thought to ADB in again, and that didnt work. So im lost again.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sk8rbebop:
You need to keep the ClockworkMod update.zip on your device. Since the bootloader on the Slide is Read-Only we are unable to make clockwork permanent. Each time you load into recovery you apply update.zip to enter Clockwork. After completing the tutorial you will be in stock ROM with root. I suggest flashing the ENG and then SlideMeRoot5r1. Since you recieved a signature is incorrect, I assume you didn't finish rooting your device.

There are about a dozen different ways to do it.

If you've got the Android SDK installed, you can use the command "adb install <package_name>.apk" to manually install it.

Otherwise, you can copy the *.apk file onto your phone's SD card and use an application like Astro File Manager on your phone to install it.

Hi all

I have the following setup:

Desire

Aux Input (for music)

SuperTooth One BlueTooth Hands Free

When I drive, I use the HTC Desire to play the sat nav instructions and music out of the Aux to the stereo however, if I enable Bluetooth, all music and commands are sent through the Bluetooth receiver instead.

On the iPhone, you have the option to route audio through headphones socket or through the BT device - but cannot find out how to do it on the Desire.

Are there any applications that make it possible to route calls out via BT and everything else out over the Aux?
