[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
USB/MicroSD mount is working, but I cannot get ADB to work. This is really pissing me off. I had it working fine on Vista but I'm a dumbass and decided to upgrade to Win7 Ultimate.

Device Manager does not show "Android Composite ADB Interface" or "Nexus One" or anything that looks remotely like that.

The instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=613054 -- do not work for me, as you can see in the screenshot I've provided below, nothing shows up.

SCREENSHOT (same also attached in case something happens to the link): http://imgur.com/uoaWH.jpg

1. The Android SDK is installed.

2. Java JDK 64 & 32 bit versions are both installed.

3. Plugged in my phone, turned on USB Debugging, nothing happened. Device manager list didn't change at all. No alerts near the systray from Win7.

4. I used "USB Deview" and uninstalled everything that looked like "Google" or "HTC" (saw nothing that said HTC or Android, just Google).

5. After #4, gave this POS a reboot, no change when plugging the phone in.

I have the driver downloaded, separately, as well as the one that comes with the Android SDK.

I'm at a complete loss.

Help is deeply, truly, appreciated, and I'll be clicking on some "DONATE" links if you can help me fix this.

EDIT: RESOLVED

Windows7 didn't like this ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702191

But it loves this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=714184

Needless to say... I'm pretty happy!

usb driver installed?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
Yes.

And USB debugging is enabled.

I can mount the SD, but it looks like Windows thinks my phone is nothing more than a storage device. The ADB crap is not showing up in the Device Manager like it did on Vista, nor is there *anything* that says "Nexus One" except in... see new screenshot.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teario:
Is your Nexus running 2.2?

I had this exact problem as soon as I updated to 2.2; Windows 7 simply refuses to accept the device.

Put your device in recovery mode and see if fastboot can detect it. For me it can, but ADB and DDMS both think nothing is connected when the phone is on and in debug mode.

I have a HTC Magic as well which works absolutely fine (even when running CM6, which is 2.2 based) but the Nexus on 2.2 is just a no go. If you've unlocked your bootloader you could downgrade to 2.1 again. I never had problems on Win7 with 2.1.

Your only other option is to add your comments to the bug, here: code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=9437 (sorry, I'm still not allowed to post proper links yet)

It seems very few people are experiencing this (or reporting it when they do) so my hopes for them fixing it are pretty low.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
Are you on version R3 of the USB driver?

What happens when you plug in the phone with usb debugging turned on (on the status bar) ?

Does it ask for a driver? if so manually point it to C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver (may differ)

below is a SS of the driver files being uses on my win-7 64 bit desktop.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prod1702:
Try something for me. I am having the same as you but try this. Boot your phone in recovery mode and see if adb works then. My pc sees the phone as adb in recovery but it doesn't see it as adb on the home screen. Not sure why this is but it worked at one time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
Holy ****.

I love you.

I've been pulling my hair out. Seriously.

I booted into recovery, plugged the phone in, Windows tried installing drivers, but failed, then I saw "Nexus One" listed in Device Manager, and after installing the drivers that came with the SDK, the "Android Phone" and "Android Composite ADB Interface" stuff shows up in the device manager, and adb commands work... when my phone is booted into Recovery.

Recovery was the key.

Thank you!!!!!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
Could the ROM I'm using have anything to do with this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
ADB recognizes the device when I'm recovery, and the "adb push" commands do their thing, but I don't see the files being pushed where I'm pushing them to.

Do I just have to enable the "USB toggle" thing?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] productofusa:
I just installed Win 7 and used these directions from the android developers website and everything worked flawlessly from the getgo:

Hmmm, correct url, not working, 404, maybe it'll work if you copy/paste and take the spaces out from between // and developer.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pendo:
What recovery image are you using? I've had good luck with ClockworkMod and it's 'mount system' option as far as push/pull while in recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
IT WAS THE ROM.

I went back to the ROM I was using previously, and ADB WORKS FINE NOW IN WINDOWS 7.

Something had to be wrong....that's stable rom. There's more than one custom rom that has it for a base.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryjabo:
I'm not knocking the ROM or the developer of the ROM, but I made a backup, wiped everything, flashed the MCR ROM again, went back to the same problem.

Putting the other ROM back... no more problem. ADB commands work fine, and Windows7 sees my phone.

Use the Gold Card tool in my sig below.

You could also root with a permanent recovery like UnrEVOked 3.1 (also in sig below) as this still gives you root without the need for a Gold Card - here's the guide for it:

Just as the thread title says, my camera is full of bugs, unable to change iso/exposure properly and hangs when I try to focus or take a picture. Had the same problem when using jf4 and jm2 as well as third party camera apps. Is this a software or hardware problem? And any solutions?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
you are the very first person to complain about this.

just about every body else loves the camera, including me

[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
I had problems testing the panorama shot, but I never complained, mostly because I don't take pictures and I was just testing it. Also, in the camera's defense, I was talking pictures in a room, where perhaps there was an issue due to corners while the shot is intended to be of landscape....any thoughts?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Qazz~:
Not exactly complaining but I think that it could be a hardware problem as half of the time I press the camera app, the app starts shows a black screen and says 'camera failed' and force closes...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Is this lag ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Qazz~:
Not much lag, but like I said its real buggy, can't even focus.when I tap on an area the box shifts to wheretapped but it does not focus, the box will now get stuck there and the iso/exposure will not change then usually the camera will stop working
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
now, that is an actual problem.

did you try rebooting the phone?

if you can't take even a normal picture, you might have an defective camera
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Qazz~:
Taking a picture is a hit and miss affair, takes pics 2 out of 10 times i try, it should be a camera problem, going to send it in for warranty now. will report back when its fixed
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Have you tried a hard reset to see if the problem goes away?

Whenever things start to go wierd, I alway 1)Soft reset 2)If it does not work do a hard reset 3)If still doesn't work, find out if everyone else with the same firmware has the problem 4) Finally, go to the shop for a replacement, it's likely then to be a hardware issue.

Soft reset, hard reset, flashed firmware again. All did not work. Was sent in for repair a few hours ago, they said it would take 2-3 days, had jm2 on it though and where I live the latest firmware is jf4. Hope they don't bother about that. Hoping for the best

Update!

Just got phone back from Samsung after waiting for 4 torturous days, everything seems to be in working order now, the auto focus is still pretty slow though but other than that its great.

So after all it should have just been a hardware problem as the customer service lady told me that they changed the pcb of the camera

HELP PLEASE.... I bought a new Galaxy S Captivate about 3 weeks ago and i think alrealy had the new Android 2.1 with the GPS Fixed. The Camera was working until a few days ago. Every time I start the Camera app, after just 2 or 3 seconds I am getting the Warning message "Camera Failed". I can only press okay and the Camera app closes. I tried many times and it is always the same.

I tried soft reset, and hard reset which errased all my data, and nothing. Today I decided to upgrade to the new Leaked version of the Froyo 2.2 to see if it would help. Nothing helped. I AM STUCK....

I called Samsung 3rd level support and they said that I should send my phone to them for them to REFLASH my phone. If that would not fix they would replace and send another phone to me.

My problem is that I am out of the USA (I am in Brazil now) for the next 3 months, so I would like to find a way to fi via software now.

Since Samsung said that the best way to fix this Camera problem is the FLASH the phone, and only SAMSUNG has this special flashing software, my question is:

1- DOES ANY ONE KNOWS WHER I COULD DOWNLOAD THIS SAMSUNG FLASHING SOFTWARE ? ANY WHAT WHERE I COULD GET THE ROM ORIGINAL CAPTIVATE 2.1 VERSION?

2- I only know this 2 ways to flash or upgrade my phone,

I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0.rar (for Android 2.1)

I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears.exe (for Android 2.2 leaked version)

But I am not sure that this is the SAMSUNG FLASH version that they are talking about , is it?

Where can I find the real Samsung Flash software ? PLEASE HELP
[Galaxy S I9000 General] scraatch:
Solved Thanks to Voodoo

Had practically the same problem, Camera failed yet it worked for Video and even in Panorama mode, I didn't install anything new other than some themes from the Market, I tried factory set, removing the battery ... nothing worked, so I disabled OCLF, uninstalled it, and installed Voodoo lag fix instead, that made the trick !! Don't understand why though , but anyways it's working now

What you can do is purchase another backplate for the phone and buy velcro and mount like that, but if changing plates all the time is too much of a pain here is a amazon search

I've been using the Scosche Universal Windshield and Vent Mount:

[Droid Eris Accessories] mjb413:
I bought mine from walmart for $6. It's a vent mount I picked up in the automotive section.
[Droid Eris Accessories] Papa Foxtrot:
ProClip(proclipusa dot com) has both powered and unpowered versions. Never tried one, but I've read good reviews on other boards. A little pricey as it's a two part system - a vehicle mount and a device adaptor. I'm thinking of trying the standard non-powered version for the Eris. Only concern is that it doesn't look like it will accomodate a protective case on the phone.

Another option is the "Universal" smart phone mount from Semsons(semsons dot com). I have dealt with them before for GPS and PDA stuff - no problems. I've got a universal PDA vent mount that I think was a freebie from them with a BT GPS purchase. I've used it for years - works OK with the Eris.
[Droid Eris Accessories] smokedkill:
I got a universal vent dock that works for my Eris. U have a pretty nice setup as I also have a connection for hooking up cd players to a car's tapedeck. I no longer listen to the radio, and I gave up on CD's a long time ago.
[Droid Eris Accessories] gthirty6ptime:
custom dock

Im personally not a fan of vent docks or universals. I found a how to on lifehacker as to make a custom car dock. Granite its not like the moto droid with the magnet, but hell its much better than a universal windshield or vent mount.

Fact is you get any gps mount off ebay. I had an old magellan gps mount laying around. Average price for one off ebay is anywhere from $3-10

Grab a hard case off ebay. I picked one that had a belt clip on it for $2. Shipped.

I had to break the clip off and file it flush.

You can use Rearview mirror windshield mount sticker ,but I didnt have any so I just used standard epoxy. Im sure superglue will work.

Glue the hard plastic case onto the gps mount and your result will end like this.

Sorry for the crappy pics. Taken with my phone on KAOSFROYO 36 and camera works when it wants. Quailitys not that great but you get the picture.

Enjoy.

I am having a little bit of frustration with managing my contacts and calendar on my galaxy s.

coming from a windowMobile user, I often use outlook to group, edit my contacts and calendar to keep everything orderly. Moving to Galaxy S, I only manage to sync with Kies ONCE to import my outlook contacts over. After that one time, kies stop working and I couldn't connect my phone to my pc except in mass storage mode.

I am sure I am not the only one here, so how are you people managing your contacts and calendar. Are there any other applications out there we can use? Clicking one by one of the phone is just too slow.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Arkymedes:
At least for me, Kies will not connect with USB debugging enabled.

Maybe you changed this setting?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I have no problem having it connected. If it's not connecting, ii usually reboot my PC, and disconnect then reconnect the USB cable.

My problem is that not all the contact records are synced over, and sometimes I says the value is not within the expected range then refuse to sync. At other times, the syncing stays at 0% completion forever.

In the case of calendar, it does not sync at all, while often also says the value is not within the expected range, while other times the progress bar refuse to move.

The first time I discovered it, after about 5 days of continuos but failed struggle to make it work, I gave up and entered the data manually. Yes, no joke, I manually recreated the data. But then, I did two hard resets after that. Now I simply give up and continue to use my iPhone for my email, calendar, and contact. I keep only a subset of my contact on my SGS to make calls, via the SIM card.

My problem with the Calendar sync is that Kies does not sync Recurring appointments, so none of my standing meetings show up.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I wonder if it is because google has too much limitation in it's calendar as compared to window and iPhone. I discovered that in android, I can't set up appointments that happens once every two weeks, but I have such recurring items on my iPhone.

Guys, check miqlive.com. Outstanding. Supports both WM and Android and many other phones. Backups up calls, contacts, calender and SMSs and you could edit them virtually from anywhere over the internet through a PC. It is free of cost and I have done some initial tests to backup. It worked great. Looking to try restores from a freshly partitioned SGS. I have seen many successfully using them.

Hi,

My computer OS is window 7 Home Premium. As for problem with kies connection with the phone, I have no idea why it is not working. I have done multiple search on various forums, and found that a lot of people also having the same problem. Downloading the latest version of kies does not help.

Most suggested solutions are quite unacceptable such as hard reset or deleting all your mp3. Loosing all my data or mp3 everytime I want to sync are not good solutions. :(

I am really considering moving to the dark side and just upload all my contacts on google. Two major downside are that, all your contacts will be uploaded to the internet and google web application pale in comparison to what I am used to in Outlook.

You can export you contacts to vcf from the phone itself (go into contacts, then settings) to the internal storage or an external sd card, then just put the vcf file somewhere safe. As for me, im not syncing calendar with gmail either. I got Kies working when i got my phone so i got to sync my calendar once, now it doesnt work at all. Tried all "fixes" but nothing worked.

Well the easiest way I've found so far is to active sync your winmo to google without installing any programs at all.

1. Run your Active Sync, go Menu>Configure server.

2. Put m.google.com for the server and tick the SSL.

3. Put your user and password for gmail.

4. Then choose which you want to sync.

After that your android phone will automaticlly sync and eureka, your old data are in your new SGS (if you had logged/input your gmail account before and you must connect to internet too, duh). Excuse for my bad english
