I'm trying to push an app from eclipse to my phone but adb doesn't work. It doesn't see my phone when I write 'adb devices'. First I thought it could be a problem of Cyanogen Unofficial Android 5.0, so I reverted to 4.4, but it doesnt work either. I followed an answer on this this question 'adb doesn't show nexus 5 device' by installing the driver but the device manager tells me, that the driver isn't installed (Code 28). When I try to install it manually it doesn't work, neither uninstalling works.

I had same problem. Fixed it by doing to device manager 1. Find the ADB driver. If it shows the warning sign then click on update driver. 2. Choose to update the file locally yourself. 3. Browse the file. It always shows a SAMSUNG COMPOSITE DRIVER. Select that option and let it happen. Don't worry if your device is not Samsung. The same driver works for almost all devices. Mine is a YU Yureka with CM12.

Hope this helped you.

  1. Delete the device from Device Manager.
  2. Rescan for hardware changes.
  3. List item will show up with "Unknown driver" status.
  4. Click on "Update Driver" and select /extras/google/usb_driver Device Manager will find the driver and warn you about installing it. Select "Yes." This time the device got installed properly.

  • Thanks, but that doesn't work. After deleting the device and scanning for changes it is still recognized as ADB Interface. I don't know why... – ReRed Jan 04 '15 at 16:11

Try this tool when your device is connected. --> http://adbdriver.com/

Normally it should list your device and notice it has a faulty driver. Hit the install button and it wil replace the faulty one with a working one.
