I apologize for the long post, but trying to provide all of the information I know about:
Begin studying Android programming last April Until now, have been using Android SDK’s Emulator with the Eclipse plug-in, but recently replaced my non-Android phone to T-Mobile's MyTouch 3G Slide. Today, tried to install the Windows Android USB Driver for the phone. Followed instructions in http://d.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html (USB Driver for Windows Android Developers). When looking for the driver, Windows gave me a "Could Not Find Driver Software" message. When telling Windows where to search, I pointed it to the SDK directory where the driver resides (…Android-SDK-windows/ usb_driver). Also tried …Android-SDK-windows. Specified “use sub- folders" in both tries. I am using Vista 64 bit, and suspect that may be the cause. The "could not find.." message box from Windows has this information under Details: Problem Event Name: PnPDriverNotFound Architecture: x64 Hardware Id: USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0E03&REV_0100&MI_01 OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 In Windows Device Manager, "Other Devices ==>ADB==> Properties" shows Device type: Other Devices Manufacturer: Unknown Location: 0000.001d.0007.002.000.000.000.000.000 Device Status: This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1). There is no driver selected for the device information set or element In the sdk's "usb_driver" directory, the "android_winusb.inf" file has several VID's beginning with 0BB..., but does not have one for the one listed above. Nor is there a [ ... ]header entry for the MyTouch 3G Slide (Expresso??) I suspect this is the reason for the "Driver not found" Am using the 32 bit version of "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" downloaded last April. (At that time there were a lot of forum warnings about not using the 64 bit version.) Today, before trying to install the driver, I uninstalled the Android plug-in from Eclipse and then uninstalled the Android SDK I had installed in April which was at the 2.1 level. I reinstalled the SDK at the 2.2 level taking "all items". Then reinstalled the Eclipse plug- in. In the "Android SDK and AVD Manager" checked for any updates. There were none (I'd just re-installed, so that makes sense) Information in this thread looked like a solution: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/f8214f7f9ef55512/ When I tried that, got the same message box. These two threads from 2009 have entries that say the 64 bit driver is in the SDK I can’t find it. Could be looking the wrong place though. http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/62e1a87584bb90d9/85d9d5eb5586e9b2?lnk=gst&q=usb+driver+vista+64#85d9d5eb5586e9b2 http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/62e1a87584bb90d9/5477ba596ee3f307?lnk=gst&q=usb+driver+vista+64#5477ba596ee3f30 The android_winusb.inf has these two .CAT entries in it CatalogFile.NTx86 = androidwinusb86.cat CatalogFile.NTamd64 = androidwinusba64.cat Using the information from the above …5512 thread, I added these lines to the [Google.NTx86] group immediately following the ";Google NexusOne" information and before the [Google.NTamd64] entry ;MyTouch3G Slide %SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0E03 %CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0E03&MI_01 When that did not make any difference, added: %SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0FFF which was also part of a post. Made no difference The .INF has a [ClassInstall32], entry, but there is no [ClassInstall64] entry. I do not know enough about INF’s to know if that is needed or not.
