If Windows fails to enumerate the device which is reported in Device Manager as error code 43:

• Install this Compatibility update from Windows.
• If you already have this update but you get this error, restart your PC (unfortunately, it happened to me, I tried everything until I thought what if I restart...).

If the device is listed in Device Manager as Other devices -> Android but reports an error code 28:

• Google USB Driver didn't work for me. You could try your corresponding OEM USB Drivers, but in my case my device is not listed there.
• So, install the latest Samsung drivers: SAMSUNG USB Driver v1.5.33.0 | Official site (v1.5.51.0)
• Restart the computer (very important)
• Go to Device Manager, find the Android device, and select Update Driver Software.
• Select Browse my computer for driver software
• Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
• Select ADB Interface from the list
• Select SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface (this is a signed driver). If you get a warning, select Yes to continue.
• Done!

By doing this I was able to use my tablet for development under Windows 8.1.

Note: This solution uses Samsung drivers but works for other devices.

Use the awesome "Universal ADB (Android Debug Bridge) Driver for Windows": https://plus.google.com/103583939320326217147/posts/BQ5iYJEaaEH https://github.com/koush/UniversalAdbDriver

• Windows 8 compatible
• comes signed, so does not require you to turn off windows driver signature checks

Tested under Win8.1.1 x64.

There is lots of stuff on this topic, each slightly different. Like many users I spent hours trying them and got nowhere. In the end, this is what worked for me - I.e. installed the driver on windows 8.1

In my extras/google/usb_driver is a file android_winusb.inf

I double clicked on this and it "ran" and installed the driver.

I can't explain why this worked.

回答4:

I had the following problem:
I had a Android phone without drivers, and it could not be recognized by the Windows 8.1. Neither as phone, neither as USB storage device.

I searched Device manager.
I opened Device manager, I right click on Android Phone->Android Composite Interface.
I selected "Update Driver Software"
I choose "Browse My Computer for Driver Software"
Then I choose "Let me pick from a list of devices"
I selected "USB Composite Device"

A new USB device is added to the list, and I can connect to my phone using adb and Android SDK.

Also I can use the phone as storage device.
Good luck

Installing Android ADB driver in Windows 8.1 64-bit when all else fails

For some reason I just couldn't get my machine to recognize Xperia J in Windows 8.1 64-bit. Even after installing latest Sony PC Companion (2.10.174). Device Manager kept showing yellow exclamation mark to an 'Android'.

Here's the solution, but I don't promise it will work on your device!

1. Find out your device's VID and PID

Open Device Manager, right-click that Android with yellow exclamation mark and click Properties. Go to Details tab. In Property, select Hardware Ids. Right-click the value and click Copy. Paste the value somewhere.

2. Download Android USB Driver

Run Android SDK Manager. Expand Extras, tick Google USB Driver, click Install packages. After installation, look for the driver location by hovering mouse over Google USB Driver. The location will appear in the tooltip.

3. Modify android_winusb.inf

Go to the usb driver location, for example in the above picture it is c:\Android\android-studio\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver Make a backup copy of android_winusb.inf Open android_winusb.inf with a text editor. Notepad is fine but Notepad++ is better, it will syntax highlight the inf file! Look for [Google.NTx86], and insert a line with your device's hardware ID that you copied above, for example

[Google.NTx86]

; ... other existing lines

;SONY Sony Xperia J
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0FCE&PID_6188&MI_01

Look for [Google.NTamd86], and insert the same lines, for example:

[Google.NTamd64]

; ... other existing lines

;SONY Sony Xperia J
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0FCE&PID_6188&MI_01

Save the file.

4. Disable driver signing

Run Command Prompt as an administrator Paste and run the following commands:

bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON

Restart Windows.

5. Install driver

Open Device Manager, right-click that Android with yellow exclamation mark and click Update Driver Software. Click Browse my computer for driver software. Enter or browse to the folder containing android_winusb.inf, eg: C:\Android\android-studio\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver Click Next. The driver will install. Run adb devices to confirm your device is working fine.

6. Re-enable driver signing

Run Command Prompt as an administrator Paste and run the following commands:

bcdedit -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF

Restart Windows. Run adb devices to reconfirm!

this worked for me, in my latest Micromax Yu Yuphoria! just download the installer and install it

回答7:

If all other solutions did not work for your device try this guide how to make a truly universal adb and fastboot driver out of Google USB driver. The resulting driver works for adb, recovery and fastboot modes in all versions of Windows.

In Windows 7, 8 or 8.1, in Devices Manager:

1. Select tree 'Android Device': remove 'Android Composite ADB Interface' [х]
2. Press on main root of devices tree and call context menu (by right mouse click) and click on 'Update configuration'
3. After updating your device should appear in 'Other devices'
4. Select your device, call context menu from it and choose 'Update driver' and perform this updating
