[Q] [Solved] Transfer Files via PC - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

when i plug in my Nexus 7 (2013) to pc via usb. It detects adb device but will not show up in my computer as an mtp device. Mtp is enabled and usb debuggin is also on. When i plug in my galaxy nexus to my computer it shows up as mtp device. Anybody get it to work? No drivers on asus support site
http://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/Nexus_7_2013/#support_Download
No manual either.
Update: Problem solved. Go to device manager> right click device > select properties > select driver tab > click uninstall (advanced) > check box "delete device driver" > click okay.
then allow windows to automatically download driver from the web.
Thanks to fosser2 and jporter396

Go into device manager and right click on the add driver. Click uninstall. Click the check box saying remove driver from system. After doing that plug in the nexus 7 and let it auto pull drivers. It should install the mtp ones and you should have device access. In doing this you will probably lose the adb drivers so it's kinda one or the other. Let me know if this works for you.

Where exactly did you find USB debugging option on this device? I can't find it anywhere! Used to finding it easily on my phones.
I am having some weird issues with mounting to PC also. First, it mounts as a "portable device" rather than as a disk drive. This is not a dealbreaker but is annoying, I'd rather have it mount as an actual drive.

Second, every time it mounts, my USB keyboard stops working completely unless I unplug it and replug it in. Never had this happen with any external storage device. Strange...

USB debugging is in developer options which is now hidden by default as of jelly bean 4.1 or 4.2 cant remember. You can enable developer options by going to Setting>about phone and tap build number 10 times. it will unlock developer options which appears right above "about phone" option in settings

Thanks, just figured that same thing out from a youtube vid. Still trying to understand if it is normal for these Nexus devices to not get the option to mount as a true Windows drive (as compared to a "portable media player").

Nexus devices stop mounting as mass storage devices starting with ics I think. Now they use media transfer protocol. (MTP)

Thanks. Though that may not be true for all ICS devices because my 2 year old phone (Nexus S 4G) has ICS and still does mass storage. No worries, I think it is time for me to trash the cable and get AirDroid anyway.

Thanks guys I had to find Samsung Android phone in my Device manager. Turns out it might have been pulling the device driver from android-sdk-windows I had installed to unlock my gnex.

[Q][SOLVED] G2 Drivers

I am trying to install the ADB for my G2 and it won't install. I have downloaded the USB drivers, pointed the installation to my android sdk folder and it still comes back and says
Cannot Install this Hardware
I gotta be missing something here. Last time I did this was on my G1, worked fine it seemed, I followed the instructions from way back then. But it seems to be much different now.
Can someone help me with this? I Googled around, but found nothing that helped.
SOLUTION:
I modified and uploaded the usb drivers to work for the G2, these will work fine.

You can do that or in my case I just forced the driver with Have Disk.
The above solution is more elegant.
This thread was up a few days ago and I wrote out a how to on manually choosing the drivers for mass storage and adb but it vanished somewhere and I haven't been able to find it since I pposted it. I even subscribed to the thread cause that's what I do with threads I've made posts in...

Thanks, got that working perfectly.
I can't get Windows to recognize the new driver. I updated the file as per the thread above, updated the SDK and all, but Windows keeps seeing the phone as USB only. There is an entry under Disks in device manager as HTC Android Phone USB Device, but won't update the driver because it says it's up to date already. Any thoughts?
Make sure you have USB Debugging enabled under Applications. Then select the driver manually using Have Disk.

You don't need the G2 driver. Just force the ADB driver and it'll work just fine.
What are you talking about ? You need to go in the phone settings under applications and enable USB debugging.

i already had that checked on, but by using the pdanet app i was able to force adb to recognize the phone. if u install it on your pc, and connect your phone it will make sure u get adb. works with every phone so far. adb worked for the vibrant, slide 3g, a g1 and a n1 too. every android phone i throw at pdanet is being recognized by adb so far.
Thanks the new driver worked.

This method worked pretty well, except I chose "Google, Inc." as the category, then specifically chose "ADB Testing Interface" as the driver. Works like a charm!
USB mounting works fine automatically on Windows 7 64-bit.

[GUIDE] Offline Voice Recognition on Jellybean & USB Storage

OFFLINE VOICE RECOGNITION:
To make the speech recognition work offline follow these steps:
1) Open Google Now by long pressing the home button.
2) Got to settings by long pressing the menu button.
3) Select the Voice option.
4) Then select the last option that's 'Download Offline Speech Recognition'.
5) Download the desired language.
ENJOY...!!:good:
NOTE: Make sure you have the latest version of Google Voice installed and also see that the offline mode can only be used to make calls.
USB MASS STORAGE: Update
To enable USB mass storage on Jellybean (Android 4.1),the USB debugging feature does not work.It can only be achieved by going into the recovery.
NOTE: If the USB storage doesn't show up try installing the latest HTC drivers.
Are you sure "USB storage" will show up, as in USB mass storage that you can safely remove?
As far as what I know, and what I see with my phone, since the JB update we get MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) and the device would appear on my pc as a Portable Media Player.

Nice tip, USB mass storage works now.
thanks.
Don't get why htc hide it there.
Still this has some drawback compare to previous USB mass storage menu.
After usb debugging enabled, storage will always mounted to pc, as previously we can choose to charge only or mount.
my htc one x can not connect to my computer as mass storage or MTP mode plz solve my problem
Gosh! After Jb update, I really can't get back my Internal SD card even after trying the above-mentioned method!
I'm running the good old XP 32bits!
Any other solution?

the title is now completely confusing, just write mtp
What's the diff between the two modes?

My PC wont recognize the tablet

I bought the new N7 and wanted to make a backups from my old N7. So for that I used the Helium app and had to switch between the devices when connected via USB to my PC. At first my PC recognized the new N7 and I could see my tablet as a removable drive, but then something happened and now when I plug my new N7 to my PC, it wont pop up a removable drive as it used to. I installed ADB drivers but it doesnt help.
I assume something got ****ed up while I constantly switched between my 2 tablets.
Do you see the N7 in the Windows Device manager?
Do you still have MTP enabled?
Do you have USB Debugging Enabled?
Having the same problem here. My PC (running Windows 8 x64) does not recognize my Nexus 7. USB debugging and MTP are both turned on. I am only seeing an "unknown device" in the device manager. I get this error on the PC:

I had the same with both Windows 7 and 8 (both 64 bit).
I found the solution by editing the "android_winusb.inf" file.
Can you check the Hardware-id's for your N7 in the windows device manager?
For me I found that this changes when I enable/disable MTP.
But in both cases the id's were not listed in the inf file.
Like I said I had the same issue on Windows 7 and 8.

I had a similar issue yesterday, and I had to reinstall the drivers on my PC. I deleted the drivers from Device Manager, shut the N7 down, and restarted it. This triggered Windows to reinstall the drivers.

For me the only solution was tot add soms extra lines/hardware id's to the driver inf file.

I have the same problem. My w7 64 bit laptop connected fine till I rooted the nexus 7. Now, ptp connection works but when I switch to mtp, I too don't get the popup that lets me transfer files. I'm sure that the windows 7 mtp driver has been disabled or deleted in some way when the adb driver was installed.
- What extra lines/hardware ids did you add to correct the problem?
- Which driver inf file?
- What is the name of the driver file in question.
Thanks.

I checked the hardware id in the Windows Device manager.
There my device was recognised as a Nexus 7 but it showed the yellow exclamation mark that the device wasn't functioning correctly.
For me the hardware-id is: USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_01
Then I opened the file "android_winusb.inf" in Notepad.
I couldn't find this hardware-id in the file anywhere.
I went to the section: [Google.NTamd64]
Then duplicated the last line of this section and changed the ID to the one I found in my Windows Device Manager.
Then I could install the driver correctly.
Because I am on Windows I had to bypass the Windows 8 Driver check since the driver is no not correctly signed anymore.
This was I finally had the N7 correctly installed for ADB so I could Unlock and Root.
I also noticed the the Hardware ID changes between having MPT ON or OFF while USB debugging was ON.
Not sure what I did, but I am now able to get the Nexus 7 drivers working on Windows 8 x64. It's odd because the tablet is only recognized via Windows and adb when I'm in PTP mode, and once I switch over to MTP mode, it stops working. I can only view the contents of the /DCIM/ and /Pictures/ directories of the "SD card" in Windows Explorer when in PTP mode.

I have noticed that the device id changed when enabling/disabling MTP. Both id's should be known to the driver for things to always work OK.

MTP Not Working Windows 10

I am unable to get Windows to mount my Pixel XL in MTP mode. I have the Pixel's screen turned on and unlocked, and the connection option on the phone's pull down menu is set to transfer files. Windows is able to mount the phone when it is in picture transfer mode, but not in MTP mode.. When I look in Window's device manager I can see that the MTP device is connected but I'm getting a yellow triangle exclamation, as in the driver is no good. I uninstalled the driver and tried letting Windows reinstall to no avail. I have searched the web for MTP drivers for Windows, but I can't really find anything. The specific version of Windows that I am using is Windows 10 Education 64.
The main reason for my concern is that I am about to attempt to apply the new root method that is available, and I wasn't sure if I needed to be connected successfully via MTP before I get the ball rolling with ADB. I do have the ADB drivers installed, along with ADB and fastboot and that seems to be working fine. When I run the command 'adb devices' the console shows that my Pixel XL is connected. I am assuming that I should be good to go on that front, but I still want to know why MTP is not working on Windows, and how I can fix it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a screen shot of what Window's device manager is showing me.

I tried that already. I stumbled across it while searching for a solution. The adb and fastboot parts worked well but not the regular mtp drivers. I think maybe the problem has to do with Windows itself.
I had a similar issue with my Pixel C tablet. I don't remember which driver that I had to use but I eventually got it to work. I believe that I ended up needing PDANet to resolve. I am using the same computer for my Google Pixel phone. I have successfully been able to use MTP on my Google Pixel phone and have access to all the files via file explorer.
I noticed the same thing. When I first attached my phone to the laptop I could see the phone in device manager. Couldn't get into internal storage. Changed the phone from mtp to picture mode then back to mtp and was able to get in. I have to use this method whenever I attach my phone to the laptop using Windows 10. I didn't get any yellow exclamation signs at any time.
plug your phone to your computer then check the notifications,tap on the USB charging this device for other options...just tick the usb to transfer files ....

This was from Microsoft's site, is a little quicker. It would be nice if this got fixed.
(1) Go to C:\Windows\INF
(2) Type "wpdmtp.inf" in search bar provided to the right of the address bar in Windows 10.
(3) Once you found it, just right click on it and select install. It will take a very few seconds.
(4) Connect your device to the pc.
I've found that switching from a USB 3.0 port to a USB 2.0 port fixes all file transfer issues with the Pixel XL. Anyone else seeing that? Any ideas why?

I don't know if it's a coincidence because USB 3.0 is still not fully supported or functional on all new motherboards. Even the brands that claim to and brag about having it still have a half ace implementation of it. I'm looking at you Asus and Gigabyte!!! :crying: I have had to stop using their boards because I've gotten too many complaints from customers.
I can never get any 3.0 device to run off my 3.0 ports, wtf?! I can get flash drives to work all day for sure though!!!:silly:
i'm running an ASUS MB too...perhaps there are more variables to this equation than we want to believe.

I'll grant you that, some of those things happen to me too. But as for a driver not recognizing the device this thread fixes that. That doesn't have anything to do (afaik) with USB 3.0. This was just a silly driver that lost its way. As soon as I tried the method here everything was back to normal.

Windows! Lol.

No more usb access on windows 10

Hi all,
I have a Oneplus 3 with the last update (OxygenOS 5.0.4) and I can't access to my files with an USB cable.
I try on 3 computers with differents cables, and the OTG parameter on ON but nothing works.
Drivers are normally ok.
Do you have a solution?
Best regards,
Jckbrtn

Hi,
Thanks but it doesn't work and I never need to do that before.
I don't understand why it doesn't work anymore.
I hadn't try nothing new on my phone.
I think I will try to reset it...
Best regards,
Jckbrtn

I just try to connect my Oneplus with USB cable like I always use to do.
ADB drivers are installed on my PC and I only have the original recovery.
I never try to root this smartphone.
With a OneplusX on LineageOS, no problem. See screenshot:

Oh i see
Try developer options, if i remember it right, i believe there is a setting about USB access in OOS.
Other than that i don't know except factory reset, re-install the PC, or bad usb port (in either of phone/pc).
I have this issue once, but it because my bad usb port on my PC motherboard.

Go through and remove the drivers for all the one plus device then connect the 3. The drivers for the two are corrupting each other. It is a known issue with the drivers for this device. I have to reinstall the drivers on every connect and disconnect from USB.

I only have drivers for the 3. For th OneplusX with the usb, no problem.
Drivers removed but it doesn't works. I think I'll try a reset of my device in a few days to see...
I try on 3 windows computers with differents cables (also the Oneplus one), drivers, no drivers... don't know....

With the one plus devices you can never tell. It could be anything from software to hardware. Next time you connect pull a log cat this might help.
So I try a factory reset: don't work
I downgrade to oxygen 5.0.3 and 5.0.1: don't work
I try on an other laptop where I never plug my oneplus or install drivers/adb: don't work
I also try with different cables (original from oneplus include): don' work
With otg option on, usb debugging on, ... or without, don't work!
And best is I can't install LineageOS as I have no access on my PC

Yes, I think it's hardware. USB-C don't work with OTG adapter (USB-C to USB and USB key).
Log cat? How to?
I just bought an used 3T and have the same problem. I have tried every possible software solution I guess I have to try to replace USB port but if it doesn't help I don't know what I'll do...
I had the same issue but a fix I found to work was when my Oneplus 3 was plugged into my computer, the dropdown notification that says "Android System" - USB charging this device can be changed to transfer files and after that option is picked, my phone is detected by my computer. Maybe this will help some of you

I'm waiting for a response of the oneplus support. My smartphone is still under warranty so I asked for a RMA.
I had to make a video of me connecting the phone to my computer to show the issue.
I also made a video with an other usbc smartphone to show that all is working.

So after 2 weeks of mail contact, my smartphone was sent from Belgium to Poland monday.
I received my repaired smartphone on wednesday.
Technical support very good! Mail support very complicated...
