[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dirtyfingers:
When I connect my Nexus 7 to my windows 7 computer it is not recognized in MTP, but is when I change it to PTP. When I connect my 1st gen Nexus 7 to the same computer it is recognized fine and I am able to transfer files. I have all the drivers installed and adb works when I am in PTP I just cant transfer any files. Has anyone else experienced this problem or is there maybe something wrong with my Nexus?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] pranilm:
Check out this thread. I was experiencing similar issues although I didn't test out PTP .
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dirtyfingers:
Disregard. I figured it out. It was a driver issue after all.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] thaliagoo:
How did you fix it? I have the same problem. Is root needed to view transfer files via USB?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] lucastmw:
My N7 2013 won't connect with my Macbook Pro. I already have the Android File Transfer app, which works fine with my Nexus 4, but it won't recognize the Nexus 7 2013. It charges, but no connection. Anyone have any ideas?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jmileti:
Might be a silly question but did you enable USB debugging in developer tools.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] lucastmw:
Yes, I tried it with debugging on and off.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dirtyfingers:
Root is not needed to transfer files via USB. I just uninstalled the previous driver and updated to the latest and that worked for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] thaliagoo:
No matter what, I always keep getting error code 10, device cannot be started when I install the new nexus 7 drivers Android ADB device (from the previous posts- Nexus 7 root). I'm not even trying to root, just trying to install drivers correctly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dirtyfingers:
These are the drivers I used... http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fstbusa:
fixed mine by just forcing it to reinstall the drivers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Xirix12:
How did you force it do that? I've actually never ran into this problem. Windows 8 is what I'm running.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Landara:
It is definitely a driver issue. I had to uninstall my drivers and then manually install others, because I had a Nexus 7 2012. Those drivers were showing up as *up to date* according to windows, but the device was not working. Total clean install worked to correct it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] fstbusa:
In device manager, go to the properties of each android device. I had one near the top of the list and one lower under portable devices. Click update driver and navigate to your updated drivers folder.

It should update them. The device listed under portable devices had mtp as part of the title so I figured that one was the problem.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] MyNarwhalBacon:
To anybody who comes to this thread looking for help.

Go to device manager, and under devices remove the Google ADB Driver. This drove me nuts. All of my nexus devices wouldn't connect because they lacked an external SD.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] GuestK00128:
I've tried every suggestion in all of these threads so far & nothing worked. Even after I deleted the ADB drivers, windows 7 would automatically reinstall them. When I tried to update the drivers, win7 said they already had the best drivers (ADB).

Here's what worked for me:

I had to turn off USB debugging, delete the ADB drivers in Device Manager, then reboot the device while it's still plugged in. Windows recognized the device as an MTP device & installed the drivers before it even fully booted.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] golfinggino:
i installed the drivers from the link in this thread and still no luck, i am running the latest paranoid android rom, and tried it on 8 different computers with 23 different cables and no luck - would it help if i flashed a stock rom ? otherwise i dont know what to do - any help would be appreciated, thanks, chris

edit flashed a stock rom and now it is working again - came right up on my pc, i am selling it today to buy the 32gb and just wanted to get me twrp backups off it
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] huizingajm:
I have the same problem. When I was using stock ROM I could connect fine to my PC. When I installed CM10.2 I can not longer connect. i have no problem when I try it with my phone though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sfhub:
After helping someone with Paranoid ROM, I think the problem you are experiencing may be on the ROM/kernel side. Part of the problem is the custom ROM was sending out different USB IDs from stock. I was able to help them force the recognition of the MTP device from a driver standpoint on windows, but the MTP device wouldn't start up when windows tried to initialize it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] huizingajm:
I switched kernels to stock to jassy to tiny. None of them work so it has to be the ROM. I am just going to use WiFi transfer of files. Nothing major right now while everything is still new to 4.3.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] rompe007:
thanks

this solution worked for me , thanks

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JerryRecords:
Thanks, this solved my problems. Windows recognized the device now I can transfer files.

Thanks brotha'!! This worked...Appreciate it! :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] hatetkapi:
so i was trying to follow brkshr's advice and delete the adb drivers but i can't seem to find them, are they listed under system devices or somewhere else?

i'm currenly having to transfer files via airdroid but the speed is really slow and i'm worried it may damage the nexus 7's battery life:(
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] droider137:
I was having the same issues as everyone else. I finally got it to work on PTP, but it would not work on MTP. Once I turned off debugging and plugged back into the computer and selected MTP it finally installed the MTP drivers. I can nw transfer stuff, just have to turn debugging off. This is on windows xp. I don't have to do this on my vista laptop.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] nashi20002003:
had the same issue...this how I solved it...

I had this same issue. No solution above worked. Tried several times to delete the ADB driver showing up under phone but as soon as I connect it would reinstall no matter if I had unselect "USB debugging or not". Same thing others reported: PTP would work but not MTP

I was not able to get the second entry below under Portable devices...it flashed one time and quickly disapeared.

So finally what I did is I right clicked on the ADB driver under Android Phone...Update ----in the box I chose "Install from a specific Location" ... "Don't search for the driver I will select it" --- Then it will two options...1. Android ADB which was already selected, and MTP device which was not selected. I selecte MTP...click ok...and voila...a new entry now showed up under Portable Devices with Nexus 7.

Now I can use MTP. Hope this helps. By the way I'm sitll on XP...on windows 7 screens may be a litte different.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mixterz:

didnt realise i also had to click mtp in storage. couldnt find it first of all.

the delete adb driver then solved the missing icon on the laptop..

thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Yuccaman:
WooHoo - Works here too.....

For some reason, my Desktop never recognised an MTP connection, only PTP. Laptop was fine so I had to use that if wanting to connect.

Just done the above and MTP now fires up too....

Many thanks !!!!!

Help

I have the same problem. Where can i find "ADB driver under Android Phone", in the device manager in windows? But, i found somethig like this in device manager (win.) and "MTP device" possibility isnt here. Thanx for all of help. (Sorry for bad English, non English speeking country)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Gepstra:
In my case it was under SAMSUNG Android Phone, it said Google ADB driver or something like that. Then you have to update the drivers and choose search on my computer and then click the bottom option which is let me choose the drivers or something. Then you can choose MTP drivers. Sorry if it is a bit unclear but my Win 7 isn't in English.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Kalban09:
I have nexus 7 2013. In the uppdate list i have only "Android ADB Interface" can you send me link or accurate name of your driver?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Gepstra:
You should see Google Nexus ADB interface I suppose. That are the drivers in my case. Look what changes in Device Manager when you plug it in and/or change MTP to PTP on your Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sungal:

If anyone else is battling this and none of the solutions above help, try changing the cable...

Dunno why, but connecting with Nexus' 7 2013 original cable doesn't work, while if I use my N7000 cable, it works perfectly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] dedors:
With USB Debugging enabled: Changed driver from "Google Nexus 7 ADB Interface" to "USB Composite Device" (both listed as compatible when manually choosing a driver), and that fixed it.

With USB Debugging disabled: Tried the same with the only other compatible Device "MTP USB Device" listed, and that did not work.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jhcrx7:
nexus 7 wont connect as mtp

this is how i fixed mtp connection. right click on my computer hit properties click device manager.right click google nexus 7 adb interface.update driver software.browse my computer for driver software.let me pick on a list of device driver software capeablewith this device and all thedriver software in this catagory as the device. then i picked android compisite adb interface. divers then installed and my nexus 7 was recognized.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] JCBlachere:
Which thread was that? I am experiencing the same issue
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] PatimusXPrime:
Okay so what worked for me is:

If on your Device Manager it says "Google ADB Device" or whatever it is, right click and click update > Browse manually > Let Me Pick

Then make it the USB Composite device. It should install a couple things then unplug the n7, plug it back in and poof!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] s2law:
I got mine recognised by simply uninstalling the ADB Device drivers as mentioned above (so instead of updating the drivers, simply uninstall them). I then unplugged and reconnected my N5 and windows re installed the right drivers and MTP connection was successful.

I'm using stock 4.4.2 with Franco Kernal on a Nexus 5

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] aftermath85:
yeah, same here.. but in my experience.. before i could connect again, i should always uninstall & unplugged before it recognize it, it kinda hassle

so i use airdroid instead.. or usb otg flashdrive :)

(hope the google will fix it in the next update)

These are the steps I went through to get mine to work:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50253887&postcount=4

Now it works in mtp and ptp debugging on or off... (adb works in ptp and mtp too) .
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] swingod:
Super easy way to do this

I spent 8 hours trying everyone's fixes and nothing worked. I have a very clean hybrid method that should work the first time.

1) This is assuming that you have enabled debugging/MTP mode on your device.

2) Download both the "wugs nexus rootkit" and the "skipsoft android toolkit"

3) make sure you device is completely unplugged.

4) Open the Wugs toolkit >> click the "full driver button", on the screen that comes up click the right lower button that says "launch USBDeview" select any items that say "18d1" or "04e8" uner the vendor ID category, and delete them. Close Wugs.

5) Open Skipsoft toolkit install the appropriate device driver for your device, if your not sure it has a hardware profile look up you can utilize. Once you have installed the device driver, plugin your nexus, boom it works.

This method ensures that you delete any of the installed drivers that are causing the issue, and controls exactly what driver you put in, mitigating any chance of windows installing the wrong driver again.

thought it had something to do with the drivers on my computer but it was just as simple as going into settings>storage>top right corner and turned on MTP

Nexus 7 (2012) and Nexus 5 Connectivity finally cracked

Here's what has worked for me, after countless hours of internet crawling and digging: (I am using Windows 7)

1) - I unplugged all nexus devices from PC

2) - Using USBDeview I uninstalled anything that looks like android device. (Looked vor Vendor Google INC)

3) - Rebooted PC

4) - Downloaded USB Drivers for Nexus 5 at the official download link from lg.com Nexus 5 support page Drivers section.

5) - Installed USB Drivers downloaded above

6) - With MTP checked and USB Debugging unchecked I plugged in my Nexus 7 - Windows found all necessary drivers and installed them

7) - I unchecked MTP and checked PTP - the same Windows installed all drivers

8) - I checked USB Debugging having PTP checked - W7 installed all drivers

9) - Having USB Debugging checked, I unchecked PTP and checked MTP - W7 installed all drivers

10) - The same steps for Nexus 5.

Now whether or not I have USB Debugging checked or not, I can access both my devices in MTP or PTP mode.

Hope this helps.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Warl0rd:
another solution that might work for some of you guys :)

I tried every trick and solution I found on the internet, I ended up installing LGUnitedMobileDriver, when the installation was about to finish I got a warning saying my computer didn't had a MTP driver present, and redirected me to a Microsoft page to download it. That's because I have Windows 8.1 Pro N (without Windows Media Player), so my computer was simply MTP impaired :P

So I ended up downloading the "Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1" (KB2929699) and after rebooting the Nexus device was found successfully!

Bro thank you! Finally I can transfer to Nexus. Stupid Windows 8.1 Pro N.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] lotherius:
This worked for me. Annoying bit is, I've installed these in the past. I think Windows is overwriting drivers with updates that break things. Every time I turn around I have to jump through these hoops. Deleting devices and re-detecting doesn't work unless I reinstall using these drivers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] thesebastian:
Ok people, after a lot of failing methods I've finally fixed this on Windows 8.1 in a PC that changed from Nexus 7 2012 to 7 2013.

To have MTP working without USB Debugging:

1) Device manager

2) Update driver

3) Browse my comp. for driver software.

4) Let me pick...

5) Portable Device

6) Generic MTP USB Device.

And done!

when i have a program running that pairs with my Bluetooth GPS mouse it is impossible to turn of the screen with the power button. It turns back on when new data arrives.

Is there a workaround for this, for example programming a button to shut down the screen in some other way ?

please help as i desperatedly need the screen off to have a longer lasting battery power.

thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] duke911:
well as far as I know... if u turn the power off ... the bluetooth radio will stop...

that's why the screen activates itself...

any way.. if u don't want ur battery to drain power.. u can hold the power button for 2-3 sec.. and the light will be off... thus u can have more battery power.. and u can use ur GPS mouse... for longer time

and whenever u want the light back... repeat the previous procedure

I hope I could Help

[quote="However disabling the screen with the Widcomm Stack is possible. Why isn't that possible with the MS Stack ?[/quote]

because MS bluetooth stack suck... that's why :evil:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] duke911:
As far as I know...there is nothing like that....

the main problem lies with the MS Bluetooth stack....

It is impossible for the time being to enable bluetooth radio while the the screen is off....

anyway... I came up with this idea :idea: ... but I haven't tried it.. u may try...

use any third party program that turns the screen off... ( Like Audio recorder or Media Played 10 or anything like that... ) ...

first turn the bluetooth on... then turn the screen off using the program...

It might work.... I hope

what is the problem with widcomm and the mini ?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] asci:
The same problem here. It's not a metter of saveing energy, rather if you have your ppc in a pocket, when the screen turn on touchscreen becomes active too, and could start some aplication by foult.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] duke911:
1. the widcomm stack does not work on the mini... until now...

2. if u fear to run some applications accidentally.. u can start a new note.. then turn the light off....

in this way, u won't run any application except for the note..( it is nearly impossible to tap start, then start any program while ur PPC in ur pocket )
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] drpiety:
yeah i just didnt mention it, thats anoying too. Just curious what application are you using the GPS with ?

@duke 911 thats a great idea again and is a working workaround. I just use mobile golf scorer with GPS. Now imagine me being on a golfcourse and tapping to start an app every time i play a ball.

Motorola X Camera leak.:thumbup:

Motorola’s new camera software is setting itself up to be one of the major selling points of the device, and with good reason. It’s clean, minimalist, and will hopefully give users plenty of options to get excellent photos. If you don’t want to wait until the official device to test drive it, though, you don’t have to anymore thanks to the latest ripped camera apk from newer Motorola devices thanks to Android Police.

The interface is just as clean as we’ve seen it, and most of the features work, including video recording and taking pictures, both single shots and burst shots. Unfortunately, the wrist flicking gestures don’t work, panoramic mode causes a crash, and the slow-motion and HDR modes both don’t function, so it’s not 100% ready for prime time. Still, though, if you don’t absolutely have to have those features and just want a new toy to play with on your phone, it’s 90% functional.

Works great on our GN2!!:thumbup:
