Try a different cable. Some are better than others.

USB Speed

Every time I plug in my Galaxy Nexus to PC via USB, I get a message that pops up saying that my speed could be faster if I used USB 2.0 ports and it shows me which ports on my computer (3A3A, 3A3C, etc.).
Anybody know what this is and how I can repair? I've tried moving my cable to other ports on my comp (front, back, etc.) and continue to get this message. As far as I know, all of my USB ports are 2.0...

I am guessing you need to reinstall usb drivers for your pc, phone or both.

arbiter is probably right. if you have USB 2.0 ports, and unless your computer is like 10 years old, you do, then something really trashed your usb drivers.
your best bet is to search for windows 7 usb drivers, or go to a windows 7 forum and ask there if you can't find what your looking for on your own.
Any chance it's the USB drivers on my Galaxy Nexus? How would I fix/update those?

Not on your nexus. I meant drivers for your phone on windows. There are android and samsung drivers. But honestly i think you should goto device manager and see if there are any exclamation marks relating to usb interfaces. Also check the manufacturer of your pc, gigabyte and windows update and see if there are any updates to your motherboard, specifically your chipset and usb drivers.

How will I know that my speeds could be better? I can't see the transfer rate in the dialogue window when transferring via MTP.
I added a 4.5GB Movie file and it took 15 minutes. Does that sound about right? (I think that's around 5MB/sec)
I'm experiencing the same issue except it only occurs intermittently.

I would be happy with that.

Had this problem as well. Fixed it by installing the usb drivers from Samsung website. The default windows 7 composite device drivers apparently incorrectly report that error. I have only usb 2.0 ports on my computer and got the error - error went away when I installed the Samsung drivers.

In my case it's on Win 7 and I've got current drivers installed as I recently rooted the phone. I only get this message with the GNex. All my other USB devices work fine with all the 2.0 ports.

Reinstalling the Samsung drivers appears to have helped...

One of my nexus 7s doesnt show up on pc?

So, i have a nexus 7 FHD, its rooted with slim rom and it works great. My sister just got a nexus 7, and i rooted it for her with a toolkit, and updated to the latest OTA. The problem is, her tablet is now showing up as a MTP device on my pc, while my nexus 7 is. I know its not the wire because ive tried both my wire and hers with my nexus, and they both have my tablet show up. Furthermore, i see it as a device under the device manager, and my pc makes a sound when it plugs in, but i still cant do anything.
Does anybody know what to do?
Fix the driver that pops up when her tablet is plugged in, don't let windows search for the drive install it manually. A quick search will point you to the correct one. Also best not to use toolkits, if you did this manually my guess is you would have installed all the proper drivers but that's besides the point

have you activated "Media device (MTP)"?
you can find it under (Settings → Storage → USB computer connection)

Open device manager and check what does it show when your Nexus is connected.
Also try installing these drivers:

Nexus 5X does not connect to windows 10

Hi,
my Nexus 5X is not connecting to any Windows 10 machines.
I purchased a usb-c=>a cable that has been checked to be working with Nexus 5x.
USB debugging is allowed, PTP is selected.
Even in the device manager, nothing appears when connecting the phone.
Is this an hardware issue?
Any ideas ?
Thanks for the help.
Docles
Hello,
Do you even get the notification sound when you connect it to windows 10?
Nothing. just charging.
and tried with several computers.
The cable is "Benson Leung" approved.
I take it from your description of the problem that it can connect successfully to non-Win10 machines?
