Nexus 6p Connection to PC Issue - This Helped!

I had similar problems with PC not recognising my Device. I found http://www.technobuzz.net/install-google-nexus-6p-usb-drivers/ which helped me solve my issues.

1. Downloaded and installed the Huawei Nexus 6p drivers. This installed a Huawei Task Manager which connection to pair was still not recognisable.

2. Deleted old drivers (acer, samsung, htc) from' Device Manager'. This actually helped PC recognise my device which showed up in the Device Manager>Other Devices>Nexus 6p, also in PC interface but once moved off charging to MTP, computer didnt recognise device.

3. Downloaded and installed the adb/fastboot installer. Followed instructions till step 10. My screen didn't show anything like Andoid ADB interface, it displayed MTP file install, which I installed. Just remember to refresh in My PC interface when changing over from charging to MTP, sometimes Nexus 6p will be hidden.

4. Uninstalled the Huawie Task Manager.

This has solved my problem with PC and Device connection. The instructions given are from what I can recall of the process I went through.

Credit to Sidharth Rathore from Technobuzz for this solution.

Hope this helps.

Later.

p.s. I have a windows 10 laptop if this helps.

I was having the same issue until I uninstalled some other debugging drivers I had installed. So I would recommend crawling through your installed apps for any other android usb drivers and uninstalling them if you still have this issue.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sthrnsprtsmn:
Working on mine right now. Found that USB 3.0 ports will not recognize device. Once plugged into a 2.0, it is recognized. Might help your issue
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kandydish:
I tried using this application. It fully installed, drivers included, and it still wouldn't show up via Windows Explorer. The application also doesn't transfer files; it just lets you see what you have on your device.

I tried this also, as mentioned above. I'm starting to think this is a Windows 8.1 problem?

I went through all of my applications, even uninstalled ADB and Android Studio and still no dice. What did you specifically get rid of?

Tried this as well. The USB-C port on my computer is 2.0. I also tried using the adapter in both 3.0 and 2.0 slots, still won't load up.

I really appreciate all of the help guys! I just wish something would freakin work!!! :mad:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olddog828:
Got mine finally working doing the following: Downloaded the Google USB driver, opened the USB Charging Notification bar which gave me several options, selected the File Transfer option and it started working.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kandydish:
What did you do exactly, step by step? Are you on Windows 8.1?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olddog828:
On Win 10 Pro and did what I put in original post. Installed the Google USB driver, unplugged and plugged back in device (to make sure), swiped down the notification window and selected the USB Charging (says Touch for more Options), this opened a window and selected FILE TRANSFER option and that is all I did. Windows explorer then showed the INTERNAL STORAGE icon.

(Already had the Developer Options and USB debugging selected as well.)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kandydish:
Mostly everyone I ask with Win10 says they're connecting just fine. Seems to be a Win8.1 issue but I don't want to spend the time to reinstall all of my apps..... :rolleyes:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myownnamewasalreadytaken:
I'm having the same problem with Windows 7, on both my work and home computers. PTP works, but MTP does not. I can't see my Nexus 6P in Windows Explorer when the phone is set to MTP. I tried everything suggested in this thread - removing all old drivers, reinstalling the Google driver, installing the Huawei driver, etc.

MTP has always worked fine with my Nexus 7 2013.

ADB and Fastboot work fine with my Nexus 6P. I was able to unlock the bootloader, flash the MDB08M factory image, and root my phone. I just can't use my computer to transfer files to and from my phone.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kandydish:
You even have a slight advantage over me; I can't even get PTP to work. How did you manage that?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chichu_9:
uninstall all the old drivers from your PC >>> Restart >> Connect the Device and enable MTP, then manually search and install drivers. Had a similar issue in the beginning, this solved the problem for me.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myownnamewasalreadytaken:
Well, I tried running through these steps - again. This time I sort of made some progress. I can now see a "Nexus 6P" icon in Windows Explorer, and a thermometer graph showing the amount of used and free space on my phone, although I still can't see any of the files on my phone. Also, now I've got Huawei's HiSuite desktop application working properly for the first time. This application allows me to see my phone contacts, photo gallery, and apps, but nothing else. On the down side, I've apparently lost the ability to see my phone's files in PTP mode.

Oh well... :confused:

UPDATE: Success! I clicked a "folder" icon in HiSuite, which opened up a Windows Explorer window showing the complete file hierarchy on my phone. Who knew?!...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dk0r:
None of the above worked for me on Win10.

Steps 5-10 from the following link resolved this for me:

How do u manually install drivers my driver installs soon as I connect device
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Genghis_Tron:
I'm having the same issue. Here is a cross post of a thread I made:

Ok, I'm not sure what's going on, but my Nexus 6P will not do anything but charge when it's plugged up to my PC. I am using the systemless root and Franco kernel r7. Other than that, it's stock. What happens when I plug my phone into my PC is the battery icon changes to charging, and that's it. The PC does not recognize the phone is plugged in, and there are no unknown USB devices in device manager. I also do not get a USB notification on my phone.

More details:

- I have done the complete drive install VIA the nexus root toolkit (both initial setup before this problem, then again when the problem surfaced)

- USB debugging is enabled

- I swapped cables about 3 times, no change

- Tried different USB ports on PC and laptop and even ports directly connected to the motherboard. no change.

- Tried on my laptop (Windows 10) and it does the same thing as the PC (Windows 10).

- USB settings are set to MTP, although if I change it, it seems to get stuck on charging. I have to tap MTP about 3-5 times in order for it to say it's in MTP mode again.

- Running the command adb devices in command prompt does not show anything connected.

Other than this weird issue, I have not had any problems with my phone. I also have another USB-C cable on the way, but it seems unlikely that would be the issue.

also:

Grabbed a catlog of USB port manager, not sure if there is anything helpful here, but can someone post theirs when USB is connected so I can see the differences?

02-02 19:23:41.675

I/UsbPortManager(950): USB port changed: port=UsbPort{id=otg_default, supportedModes=dual}, status=UsbPortStatus{connected=true, currentMode=ufp, currentPowerRole=sink, currentDataRole=device, supportedRoleCombinations=[source:host, sink:device]}, canChangeMode=true, canChangePowerRole=false, canChangeDataRole=false

Are you using twrp? And if so.. are you able see it while in twrp?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshua.justice:
Not even under the menus: Settings > Developer Options > Networking > Select USB Configuration. It normally is set to charge only but you'd wanna change it to MTP.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheUndertaker21:
It's there even when I set it up. Nothing happened.

It doesn't even make a sound like when you plug it to the pc. Only charges smh.

I reinstalled the driver nothing.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshua.justice:
So you've changed it to MTP? I'd uninstall the drivers and let windows download them itself. It should do it once for ADB/live power and again for fastboot.

If that still doesn't work, could be an OS issue with it communicating with the phone. What os are you running? And does it work on a different computer?

On Off USB Connection

I have had this problem since I bought my 6P and with my previous Nexus 5. When I connect my phone to my laptop via USB the connection continually connects and disconnects at about one second intervals making it impossible to access any files on my phone via my PC. I have tried absolutely every single solution I have come across over several months and nothing works. I know this question has been asked hundreds of times but I've yet to find an answer.

I guarantee it is something to do with the drivers. I would suggest uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling them.

Yeah, I've tried with FD variant as I writed in the Thread Title. On official site doesn't even have any of A Series models listed on suported devices, so it's a shot in the dark. :fingers-crossed:

After root you will keep getting a Notification saying "SE for Android has been disabled..." and asking for restart the device, to get rid of this message disable SecurityLogAgent (doesn't Uninstall, just Disable) GG :cool:

I've tried to disable it thru the Stock app manager, but the Disable button is greyed out, so use 'CCleaner' for Android or any other App Manager that you like, Root Uninstaller have a similar option but is called 'Freeze'.

Also, is this the same as rooting with the traditional method (in terms of my usage)?

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kemp7:
Have you guys read the entire post? All the answers are in the thread already, inclusive the Title states that is rooting WITHOUT trip the Knox counter.

About Xposed I've tried to use it without success, because the Rom must be De'odex'ed.

To De'odex the Rom you must install a Third-Party Recovery (TWRP is the unique recovery/bootloader for SM-A700FD 'till now) and if you do that your Knox Counter WILL Trip.

Thanks! I am a bit paranoid when doing things like this to my phone. I also just got my first Samsung, so that makes me a bit more uneasy. I guess I don't like to do things without knowing the certain outcome.. But just to give me and everyone else a bit more comfort: everything works fine, right?

(I guess I'll have to wait until warranty expires before I can use Xposed :rolleyes: )
