Link to gnex usb drivers? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Samsung Canada is a garbage website which has no drivers to download, only Kies. Installing Kies didn't work because my computer won't recognize the phone.
I also tried installing other random drivers for gnex found on the webz. None of them worked.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a good official driver for this guy.
Btw i'm running the non-verizon one.

If you need the USB drivers so that you can use ADB and fastboot, you can install them in this. Just follow the instructions provided in there. I found it to be the easiest method to get them.

Tried both already. Didn't work. Comp still won't recognize my gnex is plugged into comp. Win 7 x64.
Then would it still be the drivers fault or my phones fault.

I have Win7 64 bit on both my laptops, no problem with recognition. I do however have the Android SDK + Google drivers installed on both machines; do you?

The drivers are shoddy. If you look under Device Manager while plugged in, it probably has a ! on the device. Manually update it, choose list from computer, and go under Samsung Android device or something like that.

[Q] Issue with USB Drivers..

I've been trying to get the USB drivers to work. I'm running Win7 x64 and I get an error saying the driver install has failed. I've tried doing the driver install manually, through Kies, etc.. Nothing seems to work -- am I missing something?

hmmm. try turning on USB debugging and see if u can connect it.
Nevermind, I figured it out. It was the crappy USB cable I had laying around from a Palm Pre. Used a Samsung cable and it was fine. Go figure.

ADB working in Android, but not in clockworkmod

I'm trying to install clockworkmod and root, by following the guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2022270
Everything is going well until I reboot into clockworkmod, at which point my computer fails to recognize the Nexus 7 for ADB, and I can't continue.
The weird thing is, after installing the ADB drivers from Asus' website on my Windows 7 PC, it connects perfectly in Windows. However, in clockworkmod, it just shows up in my Windows Device Manager with a yellow exclamation mark next to it.
Anyone knows what the problem might be?
Okay, solved my own problem.
Dunno what the problem was. I also tried installing the official Google drivers from the SDK to no avail. Fixed it by using the PDANet drivers here:

Now all is well.

[Q] MTP Driver Install Fail

Hi all,
Got my new S III on Jan. 1. Love it. Gave me an opportunity to use my old Cappy to experiment with. Flashed a couple of ROMS already and really love it. OK..so here's the problem. The only thing I have done with the S III is root it using the QCOM Toolkit. When I downloaded the drivers and plugged in phone it said that if a device number was showing that all drivers had installed. Don't really know if the MTP driver loaded at that time or not...but the device number was there and I proceeded to root the phone. Now when I try to connect to PC I get the dreaded MTP driver failed error message. Did a TON of research on this and tried EVERYTHING...still no joy. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium and even tried using my XP Pro machine...still no joy. Would love to flash a ROM on the new S III but no way to copy to SD card without PC connection.
Phone is A T&T SGH-1747 4.04 Version.
OK to reduce the number of "have you tried's" I have: tried various cables, uninstall reinstall Kies..Kies driver repair, uninstalled/reinstalled all Samsung drivers. Tried the MTP/PTP toggle idea. Plugged in with USB debugging ON and OFF. Sooooo tired of getting the MTP USB Device Driver failed message!!!
Any new ideas out there?

Thanks Moe. Yeah I was afraid of that. Just got all my apps restored. Oh well. Well worth it if it works. Thanks again!
Factory reset is the only option that worked for me, and I tried everything you listed above. Also, based on prior posts, I plugged it into my computer before I signed into my google accounts.

Right SJ...I had heard that also. I really hope it works because if I do a factory reset and lose all my apps and data and it doesn't work...I am gonna lose it! LOL!

Nexus 7 wont connect to computer via MTP

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?
Check out this thread. I was experiencing similar issues although I didn't test out PTP .

Disregard. I figured it out. It was a driver issue after all.
How did you fix it? I have the same problem. Is root needed to view transfer files via USB?
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?

Might be a silly question but did you enable USB debugging in developer tools.

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.
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.

How did you force it do that? I've actually never ran into this problem. Windows 8 is what I'm running.

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.

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.

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.

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.
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

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.

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.

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.

I had this issue, it was because I grabbed the wrong white USB cable! Added a tag to the correct one so it won't happen again!

Well im using my stock usb cable that came with my tab s. It worked a month agoƱ
Maybe try a different cable or USB port. I know sometimes I plug mine in to a USB hub and it starts installing the drivers again because I didn't use the same port...strange I know but it could be missing the drivers it needs. You can open the device manager in Windows and see if everything is being found....other than that this n00b is stumped because it's working on mine. So Kies 3 does work on this tablet.

Here is my device manager with the S connected...but there are a lot of drivers that get installed and I don't think it wise to take the automatic install of Windows drivers. If you have Kies installed anytime it needs driver you should stop it from getting them from Windows Update and get them from C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\USB Drivers. Keis has an option to reinstall the drivers. Might try that if something is missing. OR Download the driver package from Samsung Support and install it.
Thanks ill check if anything is wrong with the drivers or usb cable and will post back
Edit! Kies will not work on custom roms! Only stock rooted or stock based Roms will work. Thanks you all for helping me as I reverted back to see if it was the os. Cm11 doesn't have support for kies
