Not recognized durring debugging - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I finally got my comp to recognize my Epic! BUT, it only see's my phone when USB debugging is off. When USB debugging is on and I click "mass storage" nothing happens.
I'm trying to root the phone with the oneclickroot, but I need debugging on to do that, and my comp only sees the phone when USB debugging is off.
Any ideas?

You don't go into mass storage for the one click root. All you have to do is run the OCR with the phone plugged in (usb debugging enabled, usb drivers installed).

I think you misunderstood...
The phone is only recognized by win 7 if usb debugging is off and mass storage is on.
If debugging is on, then the win7 doesnt notice the phone at all. Not even if I turn on mass storage.
The only time my comp sees the epic is when debugging is off and mass storage is on.

I forgot to mention that my comp wont even recognize the phone (when mass storage is on and debugging is off) when using the official 64 bit driver. I installed and uninstalled like 5 times.
It only sees my phone when usb debugging is off, it's using the windows stock driver, and mass storage is on.
Any ideas?

Try these options -
1) try a different usb port on PC
2) try a different PC (x86 or x64 bit).
3) try rebooting both PC and device.
4) get a new usb cable (samsung stock cable is utter crap)

I tried all of those last night (after taking my sleep meds )
Plugged the phone into my 10 year old win xp, installed the drivers, and it saw the phone last night. But the root wouldnt work.
Went in the other room where the old behemoth is and realized last night I was plugging in to the pci usb slots. Plugged straight into the mobo, and the oneclickroot worked perfectly
Thanks
edit: still have to have debugging off in order to transfer files between my win7 x64 machine and the phone though.

Not being recognized as MTP when plugged in?

I'm trying to copy some files over, but for some reason MTP doesn't work at all. I have tried enabling/disabling USB debugging.
When I have debugging on and connected as a PTP I can see the folder on my PC. When I have debugging off, I can't see the folder under MTP or PTP.
Any ideas?
What does it show in your computer device manager with debugging on and off?
Nvm I fixed it. Basically nothing would show with debugging off. I uninstalled the nexus 7 device from device manager and then plugged in the N7 again and everything started working.
I had that same issue. Glad to see you fixed it. I used one of the all in one tools that shows the USB device tree and removed all nexus, Google and Samsung devices. Then plugged it back in and it worked.

[Q] My computer cannot recognize my devices MTP

I just got my Nexus 7(2013) device.
I used to transfer files between my computer and my Nexus 4.
When I plugged in my N4, my computer recognizes my N4 and device manager showed there is a portable devices "Nexus 4"
However when I plugged in my new N7, my computer cannot detect it and device manager showed "Android Device" with "Android Composite ADB Interface" under it.
I cannot find any new drive in My Computer although the device is charging through USB.
I have tried to disable/enable USB Debugging, using different USB cables, switching USB option between MTP and PTP and reinstalling Nexus usb driver from google and all of them do not work.
May I ask for any solution?
Thanks:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Uninstall/remove the drivers
reboot
then reinstall using these drivers

Even if you did it before, try again, with the removal of drivers and the reboot.
Also you may want to try different ports, cables, computers

I've tried that before
I may now try a few times more
By the way, I realized that I can use Wugfresh toolkit and completed the full driver test to bootloader mode. However, I cant even detect the hard drive.
I finally enabled to use PTP to access the photos.
However I am still unable to use MTP to transfer other types of files..
Any help?:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Please perform the following even if you have done it before.
In this current state, turn on MTP. Then turn off USB debugging. See if MTP shows up. If so, use this fix to get MTP working with USB debugging.

I am sorry that I cannot understand it completely.
May I ask
1. Should I uninstall just the entry with Nexus 7 as description in Nirsoft USBDeview and then reboot?
2. You mentioned that "When you turn on USB debugging and windows asks for an MTP driver, just provide mtp_driver.zip". How can I use the zip file? After rebooting and enabling USB debugging, my toolbar on bottom-right has a icon showing I have a MTP and I can choose to "remove MTP safely" just like plugging in a USB flash drive. However, there is not a hard drive in My Computer. Maybe is it the difference between Windows XP and WIndows 7? Or did I misunderstand your instruction?
Thanks for helping! :good:
I finally did it with USB debugging and MTP on.
I occasionally update the Android ADB Interface driver and install Composite USB Device from the list and my computer detects my hard drive!!
Is it possible to get my MTP working without enabling USB Debugging or is it normal to detect mtp with USB Debugging on? :good:

One of the drivers you installed previously which was modified to get MTP working. was implemented too aggressively and is now blocking your ability to use MTP with USB debugging turned off.
For normal systems with no drivers loaded, they have the opposite problem, in that they can get MTP working when USB debugging is disabled, but lose MTP when USB debugging is enabled.
When USB debugging is disabled and MTP is enabled, the USB port advertises that it is compatible with standard MTP drivers, so windows automatically installs. However if you have a custom driver installed, it can block that automatic process.
With USB debugging turned on, the USB port no longer advertises MTP compatibility, so windows is normally confused and doesn't know what driver to use. That you were able to get it working with USB debugging enabled proves to me that you have a custom driver installed that was modified to get MTP working.
The way I wrote my changes to the MTP driver was to leave the standard MTP alone and only intercept the MTP when USB debugging is enabled. Thus my changes don't block normal MTP operation when USB debugging is disabled.

Yes, but you are going to need to figure out which driver you installed is causing the issue and remove it so it doesn't get in the way.
Alternatively, try a different PC that has never had drivers installed and use just the one I pointed you at earlier.
You don't use the zip file directly, you unzip the contents and will have a .inf file.
When windows asks for a driver (USB debugging turned on and MTP turned on) you point the install at the .inf provided. It will do the rest automatically.

I have been using the same computer to root Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 and I remembered I have been using some tool similar to the one you provided.
Maybe it makes my computer cannot recognize the MTP
Anyway, Thanks

Zenfone 2 found through ADB but not in My Computer or Disk Management...

Zenfone 2 ZE551ML, rooted with 1-Click Root method, stock everything else, nothing touched, Developer Mode and USB Debugging on.
Here's what it shows when the device is plugged in. I have Intel Android USB Drivers installed. I have tried uninstalling the drivers through Device Manager, but the same driver keeps getting reinstalled.
MTP Mode is selected under USB Settings/Storage whatever it's called, so it should show up in My Computer but it doesn't.
Thanks!
EDIT: I think I solved it, just have to disable USB Development, unplug then replug with MTP or PTP enabled.

Question USB Debug Mode

My windows 10 PC only recognizes my P6P when I have usb debugging turned on. I can turn usb debugging off and it's not recognized, tried a reboot and still have to have usb debugging on to transfer files via usb cable. Not really a problem as I don't mind usb debugging on all the time but just wondering if there's a solution with it off. Seems to be the only issue I've found in 7-8 days of use.

From what i have seen even with android Auto have to have debugging turned on and have to go way down list to enable data. Default is no data. No reason to ever turn off debugging. mine has been on since around 2010.
Go into system devices in win 10, (I never got passed 7 x64 lol) with fone usb debugging turned off, what devices have an exclamation mark?
Then turn on usb debugging while viewing system hardware devices to spot any changes..?
In dev options, in fone, or wherever it is in yours, check usb settings, you know, where you can set usb to mtp, or file transfer etc... check those settings.
edit, and one question, if usb debugging is turned off, can you still charge fone from pc?

Yes, that's always the first thing I turn on but just thought it odd that it has to be on to transfer files.
