Installation on Windows XP

Ok i love you !

thanck you very much for your Great Job !

I will try when I go back home... now too costly browsing with the phone :-)

I love it! Thank you for sharing and help keeping g1 open! Awesome!

I am unable to get past step 3.1. I could not get my laptop to recogize my phone...HELP!!!!

Hmm. When installing drivers it says. "Windows found driver software but encountered and error...driveris not intended for this platform"...

What's up?

Ah here's the prob: driver sofware without a valid digital signature can't be installed on x64 based windows. Well that doesn't help me very much xD

outstanding man great app. what ive been waiting for since october! now i can get rid of a 52.00 cable internet bill! you da man!!!!!!!1

Can't install the drivers. Is there a workaround?

I am stuck at step 3.1. Widow did not pop up and ask for update software. USB conected and able to read phone data. Phone setup properly as instuction.

I can sucessfully install this program... however, the speed seems really slow, cant open any pages

I am also stuck at step 3.1. Widow did not pop up and ask for update software. USB conected and able to read phone data. Phone setup properly as instuction.

I am working with windows vista and cannot get it to recognize my device when I run check.bat. windows does not ask for driver locations.

Hi !

I wanted to try that on my HTC magic, but, like drugs2nd and for6parkonly, I'm stuck at 3.1 step.

When I plug the phone to the computer, Windows don't ask me to install anything. It detect my android phone, and auto-install it like a mass storage device.

How can I fix this issue ?

Anyway, thanks for this app ;-)

I cannot see the yellow warning (on windows xp), I try to actualize the controller, but system respond me "La ubicacion esecificada no contiene informacion acerca del hardware."

Thanks! Ferran

It works but the data connection is not reliable I had to refresh the pages a lot. Also I had to run the tunnel for the MS Explorer, otherwise it would not work. Also since the web site like yahoo expects a phone on the other end the interface was oversimplified to keep the data amount down.

Like everyone else I had a problem with forcing windows to update the driver, it thought the driver it had was better. I think I played around with G1 menus mounting and unmounting the card to make it work, can't remember now. Maybe also plugging in and out the port a few times.

Although my phone was connected to my wifi at home when I was doing this, loading of the pages was very slow almost like a dialup connection.

It seems the app could be very useful if the kinks are worked out.

I got it to work using HTC Magic, the problem is the dialog in 3.1 doesnt show up, but find the Device Manager, and under Disk drives there should be a HTC Android phone device, I then right clicked and pressed update driver and let it search for the drivers in the directory where I have unzipped the drivers, Windows came with an error that the drivers I specified wasn't "better" than the one I used, but I then used the force method to update to the drivers I choose, after the installation of the new drivers I disconnected the phone, and then run check.bat where it showed: List of devices attached HT95PKF01663 device

After that I just followed the steps and got it working, I have had to turn on Proxy on Proxoid on the HTC before running the start-tunnel.bat

I hope this can help people with the HTC Magic. It took some time to get it working properly, also I activated the USB debugging mode and Always on in Settings->Applications->Development (Im not sure if that's part of the solution, I tried some things to get it working :) Im writing this post using my HTC Magic as a proxy :)

it's working great on my htc magic! but seems my cisco vpn client doesn't work with it, thus, i can't use it to access my office network... any idea on this? thanks.

Ok problem, stuck at 3.1 , trying to figure out how to force an update now....in the device manager. Any info anyone?

It doesn't work with my Magic, impossible to install properly the adb interface on my XP SP3, there is an error "code 10". And it's not possible to force the install by using the way of"htc android phone device".

Help

if step 3.1 doesn't start, leave your HTC connected and reboot your pc.

what hapend desconect 5 minute ?

is there new to use with firefox ??

it will be nice to test with firefox but i don' know if you succeed in making this operation?

I can't download the driver for windows xp. It keeps sayin: can't download. Your phone doesn't support this app.

Somebody please help!!!

Works like a charm!!! installed without problem!! thanks keep it up

How do you force windows to accept the driver ?

my G1 works perfectly with windows xp sp3 and works fast my question is i need to connect a magicjack to my usb and mine usb is not working for internet. what can i do so it can work.thank you

works great for me! I have tested it with both a Vista and 2 XP laptops.

Its not working for me after the recent update, the crc1 build, what about everyone else?

It works for me now, but i faced the problem that the phone was always recognize as a a mass storage disk and don't ask me for the new drivers. I found this (in french) : http://www.zebulon.fr/astuces/211-desactiver-le-stockage-usb.html

(regedit KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet?\Services\UsbStor? change the value of "start" from 3 to 4, then unplug and plug the phone) Do the reverse operation once finished!

And now it works perfectly on windows xp , will test this evening on macos.

problem this day for my laptop WinXp? installed, the driver failed with a code 28 i solve it : modify the file android_usb.inf erase all the useless lines : "; For Win2K" and below

now it works !!! :)

Vista doesn't accept the adb driver (android_usb.inf) from this site and keep its yet installed WPD driver. Even trying with uninstall, the plugging in a different USB port... Help please! Pierre http://www.tsmservice.fr

Je viens de réussir à l'installer... grâce aux commentaires de http://code.google.com/u/jgbarry/... Si l'on suit toutes les indication, cela fonctionne très bien. Je viens de faire une traduction en français (pas encore finalisée, mais ça peut aider) : http://www.remi.ouvaton.org/wiki2/wakka.php?wiki=TutoProxoid

Works perfectly, if you : - unplug your phone - Remove all USB devices with http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html - re-plug your phone - when prompted for the new device, install the supplied drivers - on your phone, start the proxoid application and "start proxoid"

In Geneva, Switzerland, speedtest.net gives me 228mS ping and download speed 0.17Mbps (=170 kilobits/sec, =~17 kilobytes/sec) which is pretty decent when you consider that its 3g wireless).

Great job (un boulot superbe)

Interesting... I don't know much about the technicalities... I have pretty decent speed, but what seems strange to me is that I consistently have better upload speeds then download... wonder why.

Bravo! Nice work around for non-root. Works great, tested with Windows XP and Ubuntu 9.04. Very cool, I think I may start taking the bus/train more often.

thanks to Capelle Alexandra's tips of changing the registry,after that i solved the problem of not able to install the drive. and for those who like Mr.Fuselier,can't download the drive file, all u need to do is to get and unzip application from the market. as the drive file is compacted in a zip file,the system can not regconise this type. after installing any unzip application try the download again shall be fine. thanks for the developer's great contribute of this fab application, and thanks for all the other people's share of good ideas.

Great tool, works perfect! Many thanks :)

Now, works perfectly on my HTC Magic. Thanks for this great tool !

WOW!~! After several LONG hours, I finally got this to work with my t-mobile G1!! At first I was also unable to get past step 3.1. However, after uninstalling the mass storage device, I went into the control panel and went into "add new hardware, connected my G1, clicked on "I have already connected new hardware", let the computer know where I unziped the driver, and then the new driver was installed. I then followed the rest of the directions and it actually Works! YES! I am not at ALL any kind of computer smart and I did it, so you can too!! THANKS 4 KEEPING ANDROID OPEN! BYE BYE $65.00 VERIZON BILL! HELLO F*R*E*E BABY!!

Hi, it works well even perfect on my HTC Magic. Useful now but I really need the real ip function to use VNC. Could we have this solution in the future? Thanks.

I can't pass the step 3 (driver installation)... on windows xp... THe answer is "softyware not find!". (Samsung galaxy). I need some help... Thanks

Had problems with pre-installed XP driver also for Magic. Followed mattahorn at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2676. Make sure to delete all registry entries and it worked first time

Well, i got it woking but it sits on connecting..... What do i do now? I didnt change any steps but i had to Configure it through lan because the option tab Network and network perimiters did not exist. I tried rebooting. This did not help.

GREAT!!!

GOOD JOB DUE!

PROBLEMS INSTALLING DRIVERS Please help.I have a T-mobile G1 with firmware 1.6 Build number DRC83 I think the firmware is original from T-mobile nothing changed... I tried for hour installing, uninstalling, chaging the register Keys "\Services\UsbStor?" change the value of "start" from 3 to 4... Nothing works ! It only shows a mass storage disk . The driver do not work or are invalid for my G1.. Im using Windows XP sp2..

When I verify If works with phone plugged and browse to proxy-adb directory and execute "check.bat" I dont see any devices attached

PLEASE HELP !!

When I try to download the driver phone says cannot download this content is not supported by your phone. Any help. rebel4life_2006@yahoo.com

Downloaded the latest Android SDK because the supplied USB drivers do not support Moto Droid. It detected my phone ok but when I ran start-tunnel I got an error "adb server out of date. killing..." then it started the deamon but didn't find any connected devices.

Any idea why this is happening?

Works perfectly with MT3G and Win XP. I am loving it!!

Genius, you're a tribute to the linux community!! Works great with Samsung Moment running 1.5 cupcake. thumbs-up

For those of you looking to set this up on your DRIOD, I just confirmed it works! Follow the instructions above, however, steps 3.1 - 3.6 can be replaced by downloading and running MSI provided by motorla below:

32 bit http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/Common/Drivers%20and%20Plug%20ins/USB_Driver_4.1.0_32.zip

64 bit http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/Common/Drivers%20and%20Plug%20ins/USB_Driver_4.1.0_64.zip

It works! Wow... I love it

For the droid, follow mjstein32 comments. The default drivers didn't seen to work, but when I installed the motorola drivers, everything kicked in!!!!

Even worked for the corporate vpn

Could not get past step 3.3. Selected the x86 folder, but Windows XP complains about "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software". Any ideas? This is on a Dell Mini 10 running Windows XP Home Edition.

Ok, got it working with my Motorola CLIQ using mjstein32's suggestion to use Motorola's MSI driver. Works great with Firefox, including https! Writing this from my netbook at the airport. :)

I need help. Can't get proxiod to work on my morotola droid. Need help setting it up. Think I did steps 1 & 2 but don't know how to do step 3. Someone help email directions or something please.

Thanks MJStein32- flawless. worked like a charm...:)

Can someone please help me!?!? When trying to download the drivers my phone presents me with a message saying content is not supported on my phone. What's the deal? Phone is a motorola cliq PLEASE SOMEONE HELP flipjohnson222@gmail.com

Bonjour, est-ce compatible avec windows SEVEN ? Si oui, le tutorial à suivre est XP ou VISTA ? Proxoid is-it correct with Windows SEVEN ? Thank's

Works great after a little tinkering.

I could not get my device to list itself at first.

I'm using a Droid. I had previously installed the android developer kit, so that might have been my issue. I could not get my device to appear with Mike's script. I could see it in the Windows device list (via control panel) but the script still didn't list the device. To resolve this, I just inspected Mike's bat files and ran the commands for myself in the ADK directory, and now everything works great.

Here's what I run from a command line:

To list my device: "adb devices" To use the proxy: "adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080"

Once I got my HTC magic configured correctly as specified in Important 1 at the top of the instruction page (I installed proxoid, started it, and set the handset in USB Debug mode as instructed), I plugged it into my XP laptop. The installation went well from there. I had to have it plugged in so that the driver installation proceeded as advertised.

I couldn't get network working with IE 8 (surprised?), but got it working with Firefox. Way cool surfing the net on my laptop through my phone.

Bonjour, pourriez vous s'il vous plait m'envoyer un mail détaillé car je suis blocké à l'étape 3.1 : reivaxmout@gmail.com.merci de vtre compréhension.

For all Tmobile G1 users who are unable to get pass the installation process(3.1).

If your PC is not prompting for the installation process then check the development settings of the phone. Go to the Settings>Application>Development - and check the USB debugging option.

Bonjour,

Pour les Motorola, le driver ADB est téléchargeable sur le site http://developer.motorola.com/

fonctionne sur DEXT(alias cliq ou MB200)

Installé sans problème sur un galaxy spica (avec NPS 1.4.0, je n'ai pas eu besoin d'installer les drivers usb ) pas encore essayé en 3G (pas disponible chez moi), mais fonctionne parfaitement en wifi(google chrome et foxmail sur mon nc10)

J'ai un pb entre l'etape 3.4 et 3.5 message d'erreur comme quoi windows ne trouve pas "WinUSBcoInstaller.dll". Impossible de le trouver sur mon PC. Du coup, impossible de continuer l'install. Qq'un a rencontré ce probleme deja ?

mimile.vincent, ton post me re encourage a perseverer, mais le doute commence à s'installer. Help !

XP NPS 1.4 puis downgrade à 1.3 puis retour à 1.4 ... cupcake

Impossible de le faire fonctionner avec mon Spica sous Seven 64bits (NPS 1.4 m'installe des drivers ADB, mais quand je lance check.bat, il ne voit pas le téléphone connecté)

Par contre ça a marché du premier coup sous XP ! Je suis sauvé, j'ai le net chez moi :P

mjstein32, Thanks a ton I followed your link and PRESTO all was up and running. Firefox runs fast and loads just like im using a wireless router. AWESOME!!!!!

works great, thx!!

App is running from phone but wont connect w/ my acer one

hi thanks for this great app, but could you please explain how to user putty with the "local" proxy?

@ owners of a motorola CLIQ/DEXT: follow mjstein32 's advices.

very thank you, its work very well jak

Hi I'm trying to connect my Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 - but I can't get the driver to accept the X10, and therefore the check.bat and start-tunnel.bat does not do anything usefull. I am able to browse the SD card, but I could do that before I installed the drivers.

Any ideas?

how do I install drivers? I extract the file..now I don't know how to install driver.. help please

Just got it working for nexus one on WinXP. To get it to work, I installed the drivers from the SDK, not from the download pack proxoid-adb.zip on this site. However, I did use the start-tunnel.bat file from proxoid-adb.zip, so I had to download it anyway.

Then after plugging in Nexus One, go through the new hardware driver install process, and location the usb driver folder (for me it was C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver)

Now, extract the files from proxoid-adb.zip. Copy start-tunnel.bat to <your-sdk-location>\tools (for me it was C:\android-sdk-windows\tools)

Start up proxoid on phone (keep the port 8080) Double click start-tunnel.bat

Configure Firefox or whichever browser to use proxy localhost, port 8080.

Thank you proxoid!!!!

Hi all with Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, i got i to work. Install the drivern that is icluded with the phone. Dowload the sdk from this site. Set the proxy in you Browser and start up proxoid on your phone. Start adb.exe from the unzip'd sdk dir "adb.exe forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080"

it works perfectly!! thanks :)

working on milestone!! tks guys!

It works not for me whith my X10 under Vista 32bits or Seven. When I run "check" it doesn't found my phone...

mjstein32, you are a genius!!!! thank you, works with moto backflip. any one need help just email tacoca

t91@gmail.com plz don't spam or flood, i can only help with moto backflip on win 7 pro, thanks again

LoNgLiVe? AnOn? and the android!

Hi all with Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, copy both File Check.bat & start-tunnel in sdk folder that contains adb.exe (for me C:\android-sdk-windows\tools) both file are working fine.

Hi mate, how about firefox?

Won't let me extract files from zip 4 windows said I need a pass word.

Hi successfully passed step 1 & 2 but can't get through step 3.3 cos it says I do not have the appropriate software even though I see on my screen exactly what is on the sample screens. Any help please?? Samsung Moment.

Hi, I tried to install the 32bit but Windows doesn't found the software for my hardware.

I'm using a Motorola A853 Milestone. There's is any updated version of the drivers that I need to download?

if I install PDA Net then I can share my internet connection but PDA Net creates a Modem connection and I'd like to use a proxy, so I could configure different browser thru different connections so I could compare!

Hey guys, using the original drivers from Motorola Website I could run it!!

Thanks a lot!

Here are the links for the original drivers for Windows:

Hi, everyone. Je ne parviens pas a installer correctement proxoid sur mon galaxy spica !!!

couldnt do it grr

Has anyone had any luck with the EVO? Same problem with step 3.1...nothing happens.

Bonsoir, apres de longues heures j'ai finalement trouvé LA solution, j'ai un HTC Wildfire et windows xp sp3 :

d'abord il faut désinstaller tout les drivers relatifs au téléphone, ça se fait tres bien avec USBDeview http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html , j'ai donc désinstaller les 2 drivers htc que j'avais, le téléphone doit être déconnecter du pc!!

il faut aussi fermer tout les programmes qui pourraient utiliser l'adb.

ensuite télécharger et installer le sdk puis les drivers usb (le reste ne nous sert à rien) via le sdk manager comme expliqué ici http://www.monandroid.fr/wp/2009/10/29/installation-android-sdk-2-0/

telecharger l'archive proxoid-adb.zip sur cette page, et la dézipper là où on veut !

il suffit ensuite de remplacer les deux fichiers "adb.exe" et "adbwinapi.dll" par ceux contenus dans le dossier "tools" du sdk et reprenez la procédure d'installation à l'étape 3.6 !!!

donc pour ceux qui ont les memes problemes que moi, c'est à dire pas de requette de windows pour installer le driver adb ou alors l'installation du driver par défaut et pas d'appareil détecté quand on lance le "check.bat" ou le tunnel, essayez ça, j'ai passé toute la soirée là dessus donc si ça peut vous éviter la meme galere ...

j'en appel aussi au dévellopeur de ce tres bon soft (soit dit en passant) à modifier son archive avec les drivers, il faut les remplacer par ceux du dernier sdk ainsi que les 2 fichiers adb.exe et adbwinapi.dll, parce que y'a du monde qui galere à l'installer et c'est vraiment dommage ;)

sorry for english-speakers, but too late to translate anything right, just use google translate and replace the é/à/è/ù/ç by the normal letters ;)

ok, va muy bien, en win xp y htc wildfire con 2.1update

Hi, thanks got this working on Win2K with a Samsung Galaxy Portal i5700 (Spica) running Android 2.1 :) I didn't load the driver above, it just worked with the already loaded Samsung Driver.

I managed to make it work with my T-Mobile G1 too. I got stuck on 3.1 as well. Was not prompted to install driver(s). Then I realized that we'd installed PDANet previously. Seems those drivers work with proxoid - go figure! I skipped to browser setup, started tunnel and all worked "as advertised"! :-) Sign up yet another happy camper!

Moi ça fonctionnait nickel sur mon HTC hero, puis j ai accepté une maj et là des saloperies Orange partout, le tel est super lent et plus moyen de faire marcher le adb... merci Orange !

Plz lemme know if it will work for Xperia X10 Mini Pro.. I ve done everythin you said, but cant find my device wen i run check, Wen i run start tunnel, it says "No Device Found"

Plz help.

bon pour qoui les solution de toute les demandes ne sont pas du tout repondue
