I don't know If this question was asked before but I couldn't find any in the forum. I also read some topics about MTP but no straight forward solution.
How can I connect my Galaxy Nexus to a PC without having Admin Rights? As you know MTP needs driver which it is not possible to install it on a PC without admin rights. A quick solution would be appreciated. I missed USB device my phone a lot.
...and PLEASE do not say to "call your admin", everybody knows that!

If you are using Windows 7, plugging it in would work.

BTW disabling debug option didn't work for me. However, do you mean if we had Win7, it would work by disabling debug mode?

MTP is supported in Windows XP if Windows Media Player 10 or later versions are installed.

When you first boot the computer repeatedly tap f5 until menu for safe mode pops up. Choose safe mode with networking. Unless they put password on machine you can access and install. Safe mode will bypass any admin setting

Does enter safe mode also requires password?
An alternative for the OP, indirect solution
Install some app on your phone which will enable you to transfer files via LAN(like something makes your phone as a uploadable FTP server , in which your phone and computer need to connect to same Wi-Fi. Then you can transfer files via Internet Explorer.
Or buy a OTG cable and USB storage device... transfer file to USB and then OTG to phone...
Just 2 stupid ideas....
Furthermore, if it is XP, google some Win PE environment, in which should have tools to disable admin password, hard problem is how you set it back as you never hacked into System.
One more thing, I think XP's admin password was saved in some file, you may be able to kill it by delete this file or replace it with non-password file ....
I don't know, either way, you need secondary operating system such as WinPE, even Dos....

Hi all,
heres my first post on xda and I just wanna to explain my problem.
I am in possession of a GT-N7105, just bought the USB connection worked perfectly but when I tried to install the CF-ROOT and CWM RECOVERY me no more, the PC recognized the phone.
I state that I had installed windows 8.
First of all I installed Samsung KIES and did not recognize him. I uninstalled Kies and installed the drivers using the NOTE 2 TOOLKIT. Even so, nothing to do. The computer can not find the driver for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
I thought it was an error of Windows 8, maybe a bug, so I formatted the system by installing Windows 7 Professional, downloaded NOTE 2 TOOLKIT and installed the drivers without having the phone connected to the PC. When the TOOLKIT required me to connect to the pc NOTE2, I did. But even here, unfortunately, can not find drivers for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
P.S. The phone in DOWNLOAD MODE is recognized by ODIN and I got it back to the SERVICE FIRMWARE but even so the problem is not resolved.
I also tried to change the usb port but nothing.
I tried to install other versions of firmware via odin but nothing. I do not know what to do. Google can not give me a solution and not XDA.
So I decided to write here publicly to expose my problem. I hope someone of you can help me solve this problem that prevents me from installing the CM10.1!
In advance thank you all.

"Method 3 – Ensure you have the right settings
By default my phone was already set to the right settings for USB file transfers so I’ll assume most of these ship with the same configuration, hence why I have this as method 2. I found this on a forum and while it did not work for me, it seems a few other folks declared it a success.
Launch the phone key pad on your note and press *#7284# (don’t forget to start with that * symbol!)
When you press the last pound sign (#) this will bring up an option that will allow you to change your USB connection settings (modem or PDA) – change it to PDA.
At the bottom there is a button that says Qualcomm USB. Click on it.
In that menu click on MTP + ADB option.
Save and reset.
Wait for your phone to restart.
Plug the micro USB cable to the Note 2 and the the other end to your PC or Mac
Let your computer down load and install drivers.
Once installing is done, unplug then replug phone.
There should be a USB symbol on your phone in the status bar - click on it. It should ask if you wsnd to use mtp or ptp. Click MTP
At this point your PC should open the phone’s folders in explorer similar to the screenshot above. "
Hope it helps you. keep the faith!

Downloaded the Samsung Mobile Drivers and used Method 3- WORKED FINALLY!
Holy Toledo, you are confused my friend, if your OP is any indication. Understand that XDA is not a noobs forum. Yes, everyone had to start at the beginning, but if a forum wishes to aim for a clientele with a bit higher level of knowledge/experience, there's nothing wrong with that and they have a right to do so, especially with there being a gazillion other Android forums that do handle noob questions. I suspect you don't realize how many things are wrong with your OP, "wrong" in the sense that they reveal a massive level of confusion on several quite basic concepts. To wit: reinstalling the PC's entire operating system as part of a solution toward hooking up your mobile to it is such ludicrous overkill that it is not a wonder people will read it and run in the other direction. Fast . And that's one example of many I could make. None of this makes you a bad person by the way, just a very inexperienced one. The best advice I can give you is to pay your dues a little longer and post to other forums if you must, and use XDA in the meantime as the best reference you can find anywhere on the net. I don't know if you'll ever get this, but down the road others in your shoes will. And I won't be revisiting this thread, so good luck :good:.
So I got my Nexus 7 2013 to work perfectly on my laptop, which runs Windows 7 x64. However, on my desktop, which also runs Win7 x64, I only have the ADB working correctly for the N7. As I recall, sometimes there is a device under Device Manager called "D:/", which is non-descriptive, but seems like the closest thing to the N7. I have tried to update this mysterious device's drivers by pointing to Google's USB drivers and the OEM drivers, but neither was accepted. There are also no devices with missing drivers listed in Device Manager.
At this point, I am not sure how to proceed. Is there a precise way identify under what device name/category the N7 shows up in Device Manager? Please advise. :fingers-crossed:
See if this helps:

Make sure USB Debugging is disabled, device is plugged in, and go to device manager in windows. Then right click on nexus 7 or android adb device, or any similar name. Then after uninstalling everything, unplug device and replug it in. Let windows get the drivers, and MTP should work!

It might sound dumb, but I was literally just having this issue. But apparently certan roms or kernel disable MTP mode when they are installed. i reinstall every driver just now. My fix was as easy as going to Settings > Storage > Menu Button Top right > Enable MTP box.

I have tried a number of the suggestions in this thread, including the deletion of all my google/adb/nexus (and samsung) drivers. None of these steps resolved my problem. However, at the end of the day, I can still use both ADB and MTP, just not at the same time. So it's not a big deal. I think I will mess around with Tasker and/or get a widget for turning ADB on/off.

Are you running stock?
If so, do you have USB debugging turned on?
If you have USB debugging turned on, the USB IDs change and it might not (depending on what you have previously installed) recognize the MTP device anymore.
If you turn off USB debugging, it should recognize MTP.
Now if you are on a custom ROM, there might be some issues on the ROM side causing the MTP problem. Try going back to stock and see if it works.
If you are on stock and have the case where MTP only works with USB debugging disabled, then you can try this driver inf I put together to address that.

Hi all,
I'm sure this is the right place to ask, but i'm using xamarin to do some dev, been using it for years and love it, have no problems debugging at all. However with the G4, despite me having USB debugging enabled, it never prompts me to authorize my computer and therefore the G4 never appears in my list of devices which I can debug with. When I connect USB the phone shows the icon to say it's in USB Debugging mode but still makes no difference.
a call to adb devices doesn't list it at all.
Can anyone offer any advice as to why I can't use it for debugging?
Thanks in advance

Linux drivers/firmware?
Anyone seen anything related to linux software support for the phone?
My dev environment is Linux want to adb to phone through linux (in my particular case ubuntu 15.04).
anyone know how to search on LG's site to find the drivers there?
They have one of those sites that pretends everything magically works so why would anyone want scary things like drivers
last night I had to select the third option in the list to get android studio to see my g4. I think it was STP or something about photo mode. When i had it in MTP (or whatever the middle option was) it never worked.
I use Mac 10.10 and didn't need any drivers, just had to select this option on my phone once plugged in.

Thank you! That is exactly what I had to do. I could never successfully run "adb devices" on my Xubuntu system against my G4. Once I set it to PTP instead of MTP (USB debugging already enabled), my phone popped up asking for permission to allow USB debugging from the computer. Click OK, ran "adb devices" and the device is listed.

when you connect to PC, check the phone. pull down the notification bar. there should be an option to change the mode.
also, since you're seeing that CD drive... on the PC, can you see any other drive that resembles the internal storage of the phone? i do see both the "CD drive" and my phone's internal storage.
iinm, under Develop Options, you can set the default. however, i've not gotten it to work at all -- selected MTP but still defaults to charging only, which I find useless.
I am using mtp and the only thing I see is this cd drive with hisuite on it. The thing is that this started to happen all of a sudden and only on this pc because on my laptop it works fine.

i suggest you connect the phone, then from device manager, remove/ uninstall the driver... and let it detect and install the software again.

Try doing this
Go to Windows and search device manager
Remove all the MTP drivers
Select the driver and uninstall it.
Now install Hisuite before connecting your device to the PC.
And then restart your computer.
Now try plugging in your phone.
Hopefully the issue will resolve.
If not then just do all the above steps and instead of installing Hisuite, install Universal ADB Drivers and then try plugging in the phone.

Dropped phone, broken screen/digitizer, doesn't respond to touch
Was able to see the screen a bit yesterday but now its almost all black. I mainly just need my photos off it. Tried an RMA to replace the screen but they said they had to wipe everything first
Is there any way I can pull the photos off it? I haven't tried an otg yet, but I also can't see the screen, so im not sure it would help
Is there a screen sharing program I could get w/o first installing it on my phone?
I think my phone may be rooted, i forget if i ever did, but i dont have TWRP installed on it? (i dont super know what that is but i see other people talking about it)
Any thoughts on how to pull photos off it? I tried the adb devices but the cmd prompt doesn't seem to recognize the phone
Im quite sure I have debugging enabled, just coudln't get the file transfer button hit

Sorry, can't give definite answer, I know that I had an issue with drivers (device wasn't properly recognized) and tried pretty much everything that Google suggested ... Until it finally started working. I have no idea exactly what solved the issue, it was over a year and a half ago. The next time I clean installed Windows (10 in both cases) it was smart enough to automatically find right drivers.
So ... I'm guessing Googling something like "OnePlus 3 Windows # drivers" should find something useful?
About image verification: are you talking about anti-bot system that checks if you're human? Wouldn't know much about that, never personally had issues with it, but also very rarely see it on XDA as I'm nearly always checking this forum in Tapatalk app.

If you had earlier connected your phone to the PC and authorised the PC connection on your phone, then it is a simple issue of disabling driver signature verification on Win 10 and installing the OnePlus drivers on it. Search for and download the correct drivers to your PC. Hold down Shift key and restart the PC. Choose Troubeshoot>Advanced Options>Startup Options and click Restart. On restarting, there will be a list of options. Choose 7 in the Options or click F7 on your keyboard and you will boot into the disabled mode. Now connect your phone and go to Device Manager in PC. Choose the phone which may be showing up as Unknown or with an yellow flag and right click and choose Update Driver. Navigate to the downloaded driver and install it. Now your phone should be properly recognised. Use adb pull command to copy whatever files you need to. Note that this driver signature verification disabling is temporary and when you restart the PC in the normal way, the PC will go back to the normal mode. But the installed drivers will still function.
Hope this helps.

Note that this driver signature verification disabling is temporary and when you restart the PC in the normal way, the PC will go back to the normal mode. But the installed drivers will still function.
Hope this helps.

Oh wow, do you know if this works on Win7? And also I can't see my screen at all, so could I do adb pull of entire folder or hardrive kind of thing? I mainly just want phots, but i've never done adb stuff so not sure how it works
Had the same issue with my Lenovo P2. Only i didn't have debugging enabled. If you have, screen mirroring should be an easy solution. You could just see ur phone screen on ur computer that way. What helped me was to forceboot the phone to recovery with the hardware buttons, then connect it to ur pc. TWRP will automatically launch MTP. When u backed up evrything, you can wipe ur device through adb

I don't know about Win 7. It will work on Win 10. Most likely, this should not be needed in Win 7 at all as the drivers should install whether signed or not.
Regarding copying data, a simple command of "adb pull /sdcard" will copy all the folders, files, data etc to your PC. You can also specify where you want the data copied to, simply add the path to the command above. This will work whether your screen works or not. Of course, there are other methods of copying data, you can search for it if you need it.
