What is SingleAdbInterface, CompositeAdbInterface and SingleBootLoaderInterface in android_winusb.inf

Question

I have an Android device that I want to use it for development (USB debugging). Apparently, the Android Composite ADB Interface is not supported by ADT's USB driver.

I then try to find it's Hardware ID from Device Manager:

USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C03&REV_0255&MI_01
USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C03&MI_01

and attempt to add entries in android_winusb.inf. The inf file has something like this:

;Google Nexus (generic)
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE0
%SingleAdbInterface%        = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE1
%CompositeAdbInterface%     = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2
%CompositeAdbInterface%     = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_01

How may I define the USB ID into the .inf file? What is SingleBootLoaderInterface, SingleAdbInterface and CompositeAdbInterface for?

Answer 1

You can define your device like below :

; HTC Dream
%SingleAdbInterface%        = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C03
%CompositeAdbInterface%     = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C03&MI_01
