I've never had a problem with android file transfer up till I rooted today. My wife has a stock Nexus 7 and I can plug her Nexus into my computer and the file transfer app will start. I have usb debugging turned on and the usb connection on my tablet is set to Media device.
Now as I'm typing this my Nexus has been connect to my mac for about an hour. I just went to the USB settings to make sure I had Media device selected and the file transfer window popped up out of nowhere. I killed it and tried again and it won't come up. Maybe in an hour or so if it does the same thing.
Any ideas as to what's going on? Very strange behavior.
Disable USB debugging.
Unplug/plug in your nexus.
The USB IDs change for some reason when you have USB debugging turned on and the MTP device isn't recognized as such. PTP (camera) mode continues to work for both cases though.
Thanks for the suggestion but It still fails. I disabled debugging and still can't connect. Switching USB modes didn't help either.
If that doesn't work uninstall the adb driver & then plug your tablet back in so it will reinstall
My next suggestion would to reboot the tablet with USB debugging turned off.
If that doesn't work, my next suggestion would be to delete the existing drivers and force reinstall.
All with USB debugging turned off.

Make sure after you plug in your device you're looking at your tab and click OK on the pop up........
Sent from my Nexus 7
Thanks for all the suggestions. It's working now. I was just about ready to delete the driver and the tablet started to be recognized consistently. I was in the settings screen and toggled debugging on and off while plugging in the tablet. I noticed the info bar at the top alternating between showing "debugging" and "media device" and I selected each one a couple of times when they came up. I think that it finally worked through the ID confusion that was mentions. I'll follow the the rest of the instructions if the problem comes back.
Thanks again.
It's acting up again so I'm going to try deleting the drivers. I thought I knew what to do but I can't find any information. What's the procedure to delete the driver? I'm running os x lion
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'm not sure how I finally resolved the problem on my mac. I toggled debugging on and off and rebooted a couple of times. That may have done it. I also ran the adb script in the SDK platform-tools folder. I don't know what that script does exactly but possibly it reinitialized the driver and ID.
Anyway, hopefully these workflows will work for others.

Rooted my nexus 7 (2012) last night and struggling with my laptop not recognizing it. This thread solved it!
Delete the ADB on my window, toggle off debugging and restart the nexus 7 with usb connected to laptop. works like a charm.
Thank you!
Guys, my N4 got this problem too.. until just a few minute ago
I read somewhere ini goge groups (i think N5 group), and found explanation that we can change ADB or MTP "mode" on device manager. On "Androoid ADB Device" right click and select "Update Driver Software". Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software" and then "Let me pick from blablabla...." And then select MTP USB Device, "next" and my N4 detected on Windows Explorer.
Hope it will be usefull for you guys.
Hey guys,
I've been wary to flash the ROM of my Nexus 7, as it actually boots into the normal OS and does everything fine.
The basic problem is that I can't transfer anything to and from the device over USB. USB debugging is on and I have tried PTP and MTP.
One of the solutions I have been looking at is bad drivers on Windows' part, and that is where I am currently blocked. If USB debugging is off, Windows refuses to acknowledge my tablet's existence. If debugging is on, some drivers from Microsoft automatically install and the tablet is labeled as "unknown device".
My USB controller is up to date with the correct drivers provided by ASUS for my motherboard (ASUS Z87-A). I recently re-installed Windows 7 to put it on a larger SSD, and with this same motherboard, it now does not detect correctly.
If I try to uninstall the "unkown device" it simply disappears until I unplug and replug in the tablet. If I try to manually direct it to the correct drivers, it tells me that the USB drivers are incompatible with my device. The USB drivers are the ones downloaded directly from Google.
I can still access the fastloader.
If you need more information, just let me know.

When you first got the device, did you go straight into fastboot without booting it and plugging it in while in Android? Does that question even make sense?

Use this as a possible quick-fix (not all mode combinations will work right): http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi, then reboot.

To the first quick-fix, the ADB drivers are installed, but they are not the drivers that are utilized when the Nexus 7 is plugged in. Like I said, it instantly installs some generic Microsoft drivers, and refuses to recognize the ABD drivers are compatible for the device.
As such I can't even begin with option 2.

With the device plugged in, go into device manager and find the device, uninstall that device, and make sure you check the box to uninstall the drivers from the system, then leaving the N7 plugged in to the PC, reboot the N7, as it comes up it should redetect, it's important to leave the device plugged in while it is rebooting.

You may want to make sure you are not using a hub or USB 3.0 port for this btw.
Put the device into in MTP mode with debugging on, unplug the device, then download these, unzip them somewhere, right click on the unknown device associated with your Nexux 7, click Update driver software, click "Browse my computer", navigate to where you saved the unzipped contents, and select usb_driver folder, let it do its thing, reboot your PC. Plug the device back in, preferably into a different USB port then what you have been using, it should then show up as a Google ADB driver (or similar), you can test it with the command: adb devices see if that works, if not, leave the device plugged in, and reboot the device.
Let me know if that works or not, and I will continue in a new post.

Ok, plugged directly into a USB 2.0 port at the back of my motherboard. Recognized as Unknown Device when plugged in, disappears completely when unplugged.
So, here's exactly what I did: Plugged in device -> clicked on "Update Driver software" -> unplugged device -> Browse my computer for driver software -> directed to correct location -> replies: "The best driver software for your device is already installed", and it is not using the ADB drivers.
Going into "Driver Details" tells me that there are no drivers that have been installed.

Don't unplug the device, do like this, put it in MTP/debug on, leave it plugged in, "Update Driver software" -> Browse my computer for driver software -> direct to correct location.
I know my method works, I've done it to that laptop, my htpc, and my gaming rig flawlessly.
You may have to use a tool to remove all instances of those drivers and reboot, Wugs toolkit has the app, let me see if I can find the direct download for the app or you can just download and install Wugs Toolkit.
Here is the app, but I'd still recommend you install Wugs NRT, as the kit has a walk-through telling you which device IDs to look for to remove. Here is the actual tool wugs uses: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html, but again, unless you know which ones to remove, you're better off using Wugs tool kit device drivers walkthrough built into NRT.

Well, NRT is precisely where I started this whole thing.
Here is a picture detailing where the Nexus 7 is connected, and for reference, ALL the USB ports on my case, be it at the front or from the motherboard, are controlled by a hub: imgur.com/pP5ZbMv
Every other device's location is described as "Location 0" except for the Nexus 7 when it's connected.
Unfortunately at this point I'm probably just going to use Dropbox to transfer files when I need to.

I guess something is trashed in your system, maybe using a previous motherboard driver would work, dunno, sorry it didn't work out.

No problem, maybe you'll work on it again and you'll figure it out. Also, you can use airdroid for transfer of files, I hear it works really well.
Windows 8.1; but had same problem with Windows 7 computer.
USB device not recognized
The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it.
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported
problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed
Tried using WUGS Toolkit to install drivers, not happening.
The phone charges via usb port with no problems
On top of that, daughter wiped phone, there are no ROMS, or usable backups.
I can get into TWRP Recovery, but it can recover what isn't there. Tried factory
reset, still nothing. No matter what I do, I get No OS Installed! Are you
sure you wish to reboot? If I do reboot, just get GOOGLE screen with lock
symbol.
Without being able to get a computer to see the phone, I can't get a ROM to
load.
Maybe change USB port with cable? But I don't want to do that if the problem
is software related.
Any ideas what I can do???
I just went through something similar like this last week, what a pain in the A$$.
Not entirely sure if this will fix your issue, but hopefully it'll help some how.
I ended up having to manually install galaxy nexus driver so I could sideload a ROM since I formatted my internal storage to test out this new F2FS BS... Anyways.
LOL
First you'll need to download and unzip "universal naked driver 0.72" Google it.
Now, without your GN connected open device manager and THEN when you plug in your GN to your PC you should see it pop up in the portable devices section.
AND also under other devices there should be "galaxy nexus" right click on it and click "update driver software"
Click "browse my computer for driver software" select the unzipped universal naked driver folder, click next and click "install this driver software anyway"
Now it should show "Google galaxy nexus ADB interface" in device manager under Samsung Android Phone.
Reboot GN into bootloader
OR
recovery (if you have a ADB supported recovery eg. TWRP 2.7.0.0, and enter ADB mode)
Now there are 2 ways to do flash an Android OS, some may find 1 easier then the other:
download/install "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit aka NRT v1.8.3.sfx"
Google it.
Run NRT and it'll instruct and guide you through the steps required and whatever is needed to continue, eg. Select device, download TWRP 2.7.0.0...ETC.
Or
Download/install ADB setup 1.3
Google it.
I found this method a little more simpler.
Open the folder you have your ROM/gapps zip files saved on your PC, hold down shift key and right click on the folder, click "Open command window here"
Now in the command window type in "adb sideload XXXXX.zip"
XXXXX = COPY/PASTE the ROM file name. Eg. 20140615PA443RC2.zip
Press enter and now it'll flash the ROM onto your GN.
Repeat the same steps for gapps/kernel zip files.
Reboot your GN and enjoy.
BTW
I'm still loving running ParanoidAndroid Jellybean 4.1.2.
Its like pain in the A** to install phone/adb drivers in win8/8.1
I had a similar issue with my gNex a while ago but i had the drivers installed in my pc so it wasn't that difficult.
Why don't you try to install this toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal.../gnex-toolkit-v11-1-0-drivers-backup-t1392310
When you run the toolkit, it may ask you to select your device, build number etc and also about installing device drivers.
Install the drivers through it and then connect the device in recovery (twrp) mode.
it should detect it and then you can push files/roms to sdcard (internalMemory) using adb push or the built in options in the toolkit.
then flash the rom and you're done
and i recommend using win7 or xp or vista for doing this because the driver installation in win8/8.1 is a bit difficult compared with other previous windows versions but there is still a way to install drivers in win8/8.1 its just a lengthy process
All the best :good:

You have to go to the device manager, double click on the "unknown usb..."
a dialog box may appear and then click on the 'driver' tab.
There u may find update/install driver button.
click on it and another window may open.
then select browse my computer for driver software and go to the respective folder where the drivers are.
then click next and it may install the drivers.
if you have installed the toolkit then you may find a folder in the toolkit's installation folder which has drivers in it.go through it if you want :good:
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
Adb pull command should work, but you need to sort the drivers first (I'm guessing that's the issue).

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.

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.
After upgrading to Android Q suddenly my pc can't recognize my pixel as a android device also i can't connect any wired things such as dongle jack or USB Transfer (USB charging options disappeared).
Planning to downgrade to Pie but the problem is my device can't be detected on my pc. Any solutions? Thanks
If you're using a Microsoft Windows machine, I would suggest uninstalling any "Android" drivers from the Device Manager. Then restart the PC, then turn off "USB debugging" and back on for the Pixel, and even "Revoke authorizations" in hopes that it will re-alert & request another authorization and, therefore, verify it being connected and detected on the PC....
After all that -- or if you can only enter in Bootloader Mode -- type the command "fastboot devices" and say here what it outputs. If anything, while in Bootloader Mode, do what I previously said, but look for anything "Android" and "Bootloader" and uninstall those device drivers...
Good luck and hope this helps!

what about the other things I suggested?
Or, so it can be clearer, are you in the System/OS when plugging/reconnecting or in Bootloader Mode?
I ran across the same issue..I followed this video to get rid of the old USB drivers and updated to the new Android driver.. Now my window 10 recognize my pixel 2xl storage completely.

I have this issue before, and after all i got my phone detected. But when i flash it, it say unbootable slot in fastboot screen. After couple onf time, it cant be flashed again and die.... My phone cant turn on in fastboot mode again, it bricked
I had to use the USB dongle to connect a flashdrive to my phone, wait for it to recognize the drive, then unplug the drive and dongle... Then connect phone to PC... Profit!
If anyone is still having the issue of PC not recognizing device in fastboot, please be sure you have UNinstalled the older version(s) of SDK Tools from yhour PC and make sure to INSTALL the latest versions.
You can find the latest version linked in the 9x guide in my signature.
Also, make sure you have both older and newer USB cables handy. The Pixel has a nasty reputation for being finicky with USB cables, try diff cables and different USB ports on your PC.
There is also a basic troubleshooting guide in the same link in my sig.
Best regards!

i did in 2 conditions, first one is my device turned On (adb is not detected) also 2nd one is my device in bootloader mode (fastboot devices is not detected too)
been trying to update my driver but i always got (error code : 10, device cannot started) i dunno what to do right now

whenever i try to connect a flashdrive with my dongle, there is no option or something, it's just usb charging option appeared.

So…without you being too definitive…it seems that you’re able to get into your OS…
What I’d like you to do is uninstall and remove Google usb drivers on your computer. Then, download it again HERE: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/latest_usb_driver_windows.zip . And, in case things don’t work out this time around, if you can please save the (.zip) file on your Desktop or root folder (usually the C: drive). I might have you direct the device detected to the files in this .zip directly.
Then, after installing the USB drivers, I’d like you to uninstall and remove any/all things that are named “platform-tools” (so there will only be ONE "platform-tools" after you re-download it in this step) on the whole device. After, I’d like you to download the latest Windows version HERE: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools . Again, to simplify things, if you can extract it either in your Desktop or root folder (C: drive).
Again, like I mentioned before, I would like for your device to request authorization for your computer again, so if you can please go to the Developers option, and select “Revoke USB debugging authorizations” as well as double-checking you have "USB debugging" enabled…
Only THEN, once these two things are extracted and installed (as is the case in the first step) and you revoked the authorizations, can you plug in your device and USB cord. Watch your phone/device, as it will ask for authorization to connect to your computer, and you’ll have to make sure the box is checked that says “don’t ask this every time” or “remember this device” – I can’t recall off-hand – and then make sure to “Allow” it. By doing this, you can be sure that your computer and device are talking correctly.
*One suggestion that isn’t mandatory is that you select where it says “USB charging” and change it to “MTP” or “file-sharing” (sorry, again, I can’t recall specifically off the top of my head…)
If all things are working well, if you can open up a command prompt (a.k.a. “cmd”, and also make sure you are running it “As an administrator”) and direct it to the platform-tools directory (hopefully you followed my suggestion and kept it simple so it will either be at the root “C:\” or on your Desktop “C:\Users\[username]\Desktop” so it won't be too difficult directing it there...), and run the commands
Code:
adb devices
and
Code:
fastboot --version
.
Hopefully, if you do all of these things, it might get things reset and working from a stable established set up.
If it somewhat works, but the device in your "Device Manager" is showing up something "funky", then it'll take a rather nuanced Windows troubleshooting technique to resolve where I would have you correct the wrong entry/driver in the "Device Manager" and have it specifically point to one of the contents of the .zip files; shown prior.... We'll tackle that if need be and if all this initial beginning troubleshooting doesn't pan out...
Let me/us know how it works out, good luck, and hope this all ends up being helpful…

thanks for ur explanation, and i'm sure i already did this 100% as you mentioned before. looking for solution and i found this at pixel community thread : https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/14477635?hl=en
and btw when i try to disable and back to enable (again) USB debugging, there's no pop up or something like that, just nothing appear. so i just realized why i got error code : 10 is just because my phone still not detected by PC also i tried in other computer (with windows 8.1 installed) my device is got detected but as "device descriptor request failed" not as an android device. Hopefully next update google will fix this "bug". Once again thank you very much

Yeah...I figured as much...I was just making sure to lay down the "ground work" before proceeding...
If you're still willing....what I had planned next was to walk you through manually updating/"editing" the driver (on the PC) to directly look at the Google usb drivers specifically to try and get around the whole "device descriptor" and other (detection) error codes.......
Might want to try uninstall the SDK toolkit, reboot PC, then install the latest SDK toolskit.
Also having both USB 2.0 and 3.0 cables saved me more than once, and is a known thing on the 2XL.
