Root HOW TO get ADB working perfectly

[hemanth]

hi guys this is hemanth

1st and farmost we need adb working for the next process like rooting or any other modding process

to get adb working plz follow these steps
i will make it simple so that u guys can make it an error free install

please download these files
android sdk
http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r20.0.3-windows.exe
java sdk
http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/...m=1350317070_8a229567d69b6871e02fb949ab25aa76

install both
now togo c:/android-sdk-windows
run sdk manager.exe and select tools
make sure u have selectd two options (tick)under the tools
note : u need internet connection for this
after successfull installation u will find platform-tools folder in c:/android-sdk-windows
inside platform-tools folder u will find adb and fastboot files

now click start menu+++right click on my computer+++properties
then select advanced tab+++then environment variables
under system variables section select path and double click it
at the end add
c:\android-sdk-windows\tools;c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

an example is here
C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;C:\Program Files\PC Connectivity Solution\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\Bitvise Tunnelier;c:\android-sdk\tools;c:\android-sdk\platform-tools

now run cmd and type cd c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools(navigating to the adb folder)

now connect ur phone to pc and make sure usb debugging is enabled
in phone goto settings and select application then select development then tick usb debugging

now in cmd window type adb devices(if u have installed the drivers already)
xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxx
will be displayed that means adb is working if not then drivers is not installed properly

now download micromax a87 drivers from here
http://micromaxsuperfone.com/products/PDF/A87.zip
or
Dev-Host - A87.zip - The Ultimate Free File Hosting / File Sharing Service
a87.zipkey1350318350 Download - Directmirror.com - Upload & Mirror your files!

Troubleshooting 1
if this is ur 1st time driver install then follow these steps
connect ur phone to pc ,u will see a virtual cd mount for the drivers ignore it
extract the a87 drivers into a folder the run ShiftDevice_V0.2.exe once (nothing will happen)
then goto WCDMA driver pre-installation folder run WCDMA driver pre-installation.BAT
this will install the correct driver and right solution for ur adb problem

and for the usb tethering enable data connection then connect to pc then tick usb tethering under tethering and portable hotspot section

now u will get an option for the installation of the driver ,navigate to a87 driver folder which u have extracted ,go inside the tethering and select general_driver_0.0.7
select same folder for rest of the installations thats it u can access net on ur pc


Troubleshooting 2
if u have already installed the drivers and adb is not working then extract the a87 into a folder and connect ur phone
under WCDMA driver pre-installation folder run unstall WCDMA driver.BAT
wait for sometime then run ShiftDevice_V0.2.exe once
then disconnect ur phone from the pc wait for 5-10sec then reconnect
as soon as u connect ur phone be ready to click WCDMA driver pre-installation.BAT if failed and if windows started restoring the old drivers then disconnect the phone and then reconnect it again and try again ,if successful then ur adb problem will be solved for sure
to check open cmd and navigate to adb folder and type
adb devices something like this will be displayed xxxxxxxx xxxxx


Troubleshooting 3
this step is not needed because all ur adb problems will be solved by Troubleshooting 2 method by all mean ,this step is for those people who are not able to resolve the problem even after trying those 2 methods (plz try once again which may solve ur problem)
downlaod this tool
http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA350.exe
connect ur phone to pc and run pdaneta350.exe it will install drivers and soft
then disconnect and try again ,if adb is not working then try Troubleshooting 2 again
even then if not working then run unstall WCDMA driver.BAT from the a87 driver folder and uninstall pdaneta350 then clean ur registry and restart ur pc and try Troubleshooting 2 again this will slove ur problem



alternate method for getting adb tools
well java and android sdk files are around 170mb which may take long time for some users so here is the shortcut just download this file
Dev-Host - platform-tools.rar - The Ultimate Free File Hosting / File Sharing Service
platform-tools.rar Download - Directmirror.com - Upload & Mirror your files!
these contains only adb and fastboot files
extract to a folder ,open cmd and navigate to the folder then type
adb devices if ur phone is listed then u dont need any thing else if not the install java and try again even this didn't work then install both adb and java sdk’s

@idhbar ,wont flashing the stock rom help ?. i mean with the stock recovery itself..

I did not flash any stock rom or recovery. I will give a fresh try tonight. If get success then I will stay with it,otherwise I have plan to sell it.

 

[idhbar]

See the attachment screenshot of USBDeview.See the second line .Can anybody confirm whether this is the case for all who have done succesful rooting?? The 2nd line from top shows Qualcomm Diagnostics Driver remains inactive ,although device is connected with debuging mode ON.

 

[hemanth]

here is mine

 

[idhbar]

here is mine

it clearly shows that my device is not detected by device name and more important thing is Android adb device is treated as hub.

 

[idhbar]

Can anybody confirm me whether your rooted rom has same config as mine.
This is my unrooted stock rom details :

BUILDNO - LQAAEB28.1.0-W120818
BASEBAND - 76XXU-UDMCKOLYM-11452303,V1.0

I found diff build no for downloaded rom.

Hi guys I found the reason of rooting problem. I am sure that my set is faulty.
To test this I plug my brother's mmx A87 in the same pc where I have tried to root my one. The brother's one immediately show a pop up as autorun to install the driver. This driver pack come with the device as a mass storage content. My pc detect that drive as "usbModem Disk USB Device". But same port was detected as "USB Composite Device" for mine one. I installed the driver .exe and everything goes fine. Now I removed the brothers' ph and connect the mine one and found the device did not fine any such virtual drive and Android diagnostic interface driver remains inactive.
So, this is not the pc or driver problem. This is the problem of the set which I purchased from e-zone india.
E-ZONE,A FAULTY DEVICE SUPPLIER.
