Anyone have any tips or tricks to getting MTP to function on a Windows XP (32-bit) machine? I keep getting an error message saying that it didn't install successfully, and I can't access anything on my sdcard (internal or external).
The error message is as follows:
Cannot Install this Hardware
There was a problem installing this hardware:
LGE Android Net MTP Device
An error occurred during the installation of the device
The specified service does not exist as an installed service.
Click Finis to close the wizard.
I've been searching high and low and have found and executed what seemed to be pretty good leads on getting it working, but all to no avail.
Things I've tried:
- Installed the LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN311AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.11.3.exe package.
- Ensured that Windows Media Player 10 or greater is installed.
- Ensured that USB Debugging is NOT checked in phone.
- Installed the Microsoft MTP Porting Kit.
- Opened and edited the wpdmtp.inf file located within the C:\WINDOWS\inf\ folder to include and point specifically to the Device and Vendor ID for the LG G3 D851 (for those wondering what that looks like, here it is: %GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_1004&PID_633E&MI_00 )
- Opened Device Manager and manually updated the driver by pointing it to the LG Electronics folder created when installing the driver package above.
- Rebooted computer multiple times.
- Uninstalled and reinstalled device and drivers multiple times.
- Tried editing/deleting a registry key (don't worry, I backed it up and restored it when it didn't work)
I swear there were other things I tried, but if there were, I'm not remembering them right now.
Anybody have any suggestions? Anyone had success with Windows XP and MTP mode on this device?
Thanks for your time.
Come on, smart people! Surely someone has something to add, even if it's simply that they too couldn't get it to work. At least that would make me feel less incompetent... LOL
format your comp see how that works

Sounds like you didn't install the right drivers
Happen to have a link to the drivers you installed to make it work?
Here's the name of the driver I used:
LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN311AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.11.3.exe

Those are the ones. I would uninstall thru windows. Also uninstall any other phone drivers you have restart computer. Redownload fresh drivers then install them. Connect phone and let is load as normal. First time will take a bit. When you get pop up saying that have installed correctly then disconnect phone and do it again. Should work perfect. I installed lg PC suits to make sure it saw my phone

No dice. Uninstalled LG United Mobile Driver package through "Control Panel" "Add/Remove Programs", reset computer, installed freshly downloaded copy of the LG United Mobile Drivers, reset computer, then plugged the phone in.
Same error message.
I haven't had any other phones connected to this computer since the reformat, so there were no other phone drivers to uninstall.
OK then install lg suite. I will find the link

If that does not work then it is your PC bro. Something might be lock down. Disable all firewalls and virus protection and try again.

Just not meant to be, I guess. Not happening any which way I go.
Just a quick questions. What version of windows are you running. Also you did run windows update and installed all of windows updates. That process alone took me a bunch of hours to complete

It's Windows XP Professional 32-bit, and yes, I ran all the windows updates.
I guess at least I can use ADB to push/pull files to/from the phone. It's just nowhere near as convenient.

I am sorry man that sucks. I just don't understand why. If you can use adb then drivers are installed. And the program PC suite should load everything in place for you. I sorry bro.

Same thing for me, but...
I traveled the EXACT path with my S3. I also had XP Pro 32 bit on my comp. I tried all the same would-be solutions listed in this thread with 0% working to fix the error. I however, could not use ADB. My phone literally did not show up anywhere when plugged into my laptop. I downloaded the Samsung toolkit offered her on XDA and it was useless as well. Over the past 1.5 years I would periodically start a new internet search hoping to find some new advice but never made any progress. I had the paid version of Solid Explorer installed on my phone as my file explorer and realized it had a FTP file transfer option and used that instead of USB made. This solution ended up being an easier way to access my device and SD card files so I gave up.
Fast forward to today and same problem exists with my S4 except the first time I plugged into my comp I saw a pop up window on my device that said something like...must have Service Pack 3 installed...WMP v.10 or higher...yada yada. Now I do have WMP 10 but I show Service Pack 1 and 2 only when I look at installed programs. I used to have Service Pack 3 and don't know how that changed. I'm gunna look into finding a download for SP 3 but not holding my breath anything will come of it.
I'll check back if my situation improves, but in the mean time I guess an install of Solid Explorer is due for my new phone.

So I tried following one of the guides posted here at XDA to retrieve my MSL#.
** EDIT **
XDA FORUMS WILL NOT allow me to post links, because I have a new account, and it hasnt been approved. So I am just going to post the links to the screenshots without the "http" in front. I also had to remove the "." from the first part of the web address. So "google.com" would be "google com". You will have to manually copy and paste the URL, and add the periods to first part of the address.
IF A MOD IS READING THIS CAN YOU PRETTY PLEASE APPROVE MY ACCOUNT? Thanks!
I followed this guide:
forum xda-developers com/showthread.php?t=697487#
I downloaded the pre-requisites, and started to follow the steps.
I am on Windows 7 32bit, and these instructions are for Windows 7 64bit.
Once I cam to the section where I chose my drivers I chose the ones for x86 since I am running 32bit.
It installed the drivers fine. However, it installed the device under the "PORTS" section of the "Device Manager".
The screenshots for the instructions show the device being installed under the "MODEMS" section.
So I thought I did something wrong, and before doing any further research, I decided to delete the device that was installed under the "PORTS" section. I figured by doing this I could start from scratch, and correct whatever it was that I did wrong. Dumb move!!!
I removed the drivers from "C:\windows\system32\drivers" and also from "C:\windows\system32\driversstore\filerepository"
I unplugged my phone, rebooted my machine, dialed "##3424#" to enter diagnostic mode, connected my phone to the computer, and it DID NOT recoginze any new hardware.
I also tried removing any references from regedit for "htcdiag", which is the driver that was installed.
This produced the same result.
I have attached screenshots of the devices currently in my device manager.

No, but at this point I am less worried about the MSL, and more worried about getting the android phone to show up properly under the device manager. When I rooted the phone I installed a modified HTC USB Driver, and then my phone showed up under device manager. As you can see from the screenshots my phone does not show up in device manager AT ALL anymore.
I know this was a rookie move, but someone must have done this before, or at the VERY least must have some suggestions on how to get the drivers reinstalled on my machine for my phone.
Anyone.... Bueller? Bueller?

Have you plugged the phone in and tried "scan for hardware changes"?
Still no luck.....The HTC website has a support section with drivers you can download.
OR-
Do you have the android sdk installed on your computer? There is a usb driver package you can use in the sdk.
If you still cannot get it to connect, then flash a rooted stock rom and see if your computer can connect then.
As far as your MSL, just call Sprint and ask them. The rep will ask why you need it. Just tell them your phone has been acting odd and that you are going to do a reset, which you have done before in the past ; ). They will then transfer you to a tech which will ask you again why you need it. Just respond the same about doing a reset, which you have done many times before.....you will then have your MSL - takes only a couple of minutes.
Ok so lg released VS750ZV7_04 update awhile ago but us lg fathom users couldn't up date cause there is an error in their software
here is a guide on updating you Fathom
First I ran the lg software update tool from lg to make it go to the downloading black screen -- you can get the software too from here http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/vwz-phone-software-update.jsp --
extraced LG-Utils-0.4.2.zip to C:\
made a folder called "VS750" in C:\
Got the cad file from here http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdat.../VS750ZV7_04/VS750ZV7_04.SV7_04.P58006.R5.cab
renamed the cab file to "VS750ZV7_04.cab" than put it into the "VS750" folder
next I right clicked on "KP500-Utils-EN.exe" and changed the compatibility to winxpsp2
and ran it as admin
I than picked "J"
and than put in "VS750" for the model
than I put in "C:\VS750\VS750Zv7_04.cab" when it asked for the cab file
than I put in "VS750ZV7_04" for the version.
and it worked here is a picture of what the update looks like now

That's very cool.
Once you have v7 installed, could you possibly dump the OS for me? I would love a copy of the OEM and SYS for my GW825.
sure i can just tell me how to dump it and i will get that to ya
If you take a look at this thread....

I believe it may provide you with the info you need.
I am sorry but it won't let me dump I might be doing something wrong
I keep getting this error "The Device is not ready for use"
Here is a paste bin from my cmd

Hmm, well I can't help you there.
da_reeseboy posted dumps of v4 and v5. Perhaps he can help get you going.
Lol this explains why both of you asked about dumping the rom.
@bhast2: I shot you back a pm.
@trueg: I'm trying to snag a usb monitoring program so I can monitor the data before I upgrade... I haven't found anything solid yet.
Dumping it right now thanks for your help da_reeseboy
OK I have dump it to .raw how that is what you need cause I dont' know what to do with the .raw files
OK here is the dump of V7_04

I just wish we could use a custom rom on our fathoms
So what has been updated/changed in V7?
h**p://support.vzw.com/pdf/system_update/fathom.pdf Replace * with t because i can not post outside links. (post count is under eight)
is it recommended to update to v7? some people are saying it is buggy and want to revert to v5, while others said its awesome, how about you guys what can you say about the v7?
LGFathom connects to WMDC but LGMobile updater and KP500-Utils-EN don't see the phone
Hi,
I just got a LG Fathom (V4) and want to upgrade to V7 before I start using it for real (I'm semi-computer literate, but new to phone hacking). My Fathom connects up to WMDC and syncs. But when I try to us LGMobile Updater, it starts bringing up "install USB driver" windows, one on top of the other. I unplug the phone and installed USB drivers from the updater and still get the same thing. While it's bringing up the driver windows, it looks like it is connecting and disconnecting from the phone, but I can't see for sure since the USB installer windows pop up over it. So I tried using the KP500-Utils approach, but it says "no phone attached". I notice in Windows 7 (32bit) Device Manager that the phone is under "Portable Devices", not a USB device. Does that make any difference. Both of the updating utilities can't find the phone. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
never-used USB port "solved" my updater looping problem
It might be pure luck or a Windows fluke, but I got the updater to work by plugging the Fathom into a USB port I've never used before (I have two on the side -- that I use all the time for various devices -- and two on the back of my laptop). I plugged it in and then started LGMobile Updater and it saw my phone and updated it to V7. And it works. Hope this helps someone else.
Alternate Connection For This Method
Guys,
Hope this helps someone, I tried the initial method and ran into the same issue as others where the device is not recognized. I switched the USB connection to VZAccess Manager in Settings-Connections-Switch USB. The device then recognized and allowed update. I then tried a second device (company phones) and the VZW/LG Official updated worked with the same method.
Thank you LG for the craptastic updater and complete lack of knowledge about your device!
Thank you Bhast2 for your post, it saved my ass today and kept a customer happy!
P
can we upgrade the LG FATHOM to Win7 OS? Is there any possiblities?
Thanks
ya, I am wondering the same thing, if we can put windows 7 on it.
Also is there custom themes we can get or can we put at least android on it? Was thinking of exchanging my omnia 2 for this phone, not sure though.
So I have an Optimus G LS970, added a couple apps, but other than that it's pretty basic. I'm wanting to root this device and eventually add a custom rom on it perhaps, but I've very new to this and don't want to accidentally brick my device.
1) I've been looking for stable linux rooting methods, the only one I've found that looks promising is here, but it's 2 years old. Does anyone know anything about it's stability for android 4.1.2, kernel 3.4.0?
2) In order to transfer files (music, pictures, pdfs/ebooks) to/from my device it needs to be mounted, but I haven't been able to mount it for this (or any other) purpose at all. It shows up as connected (command "lsusb" shows "Bus 002 Device 028: ID 1004:631d LG Electronics, Inc.") but it won't mount. Will this be possible once rooted, or is there some other cause to this?
3) Once rooted, I want to get rid of some of the Preinstalled apps but I'm not sure which will lead to instability and which would be fine to remove, does anyone know where I can check this, or would I just need to list all the apps I don't want on my phone and have you all tell me on an app-by-app basis which is safe to remove?
4) Lastly, when it comes to using alternative app markets, I haven't had much luck. I was trying to test using alt stores with f-droid and nothing showed in the lists, so I don't know if that's a thing with f-droid or my device. Is there anything you need to do to use alt app stores aside from enabling it in the system settings, and installing the app store's .. app?
Thanks in advance!

All of your questions are answered here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050582
And the FAQ.
1. See above
2. Install the LG drivers, link is in that OP, then tick MPT. That should transfer your files. If not, you may need to uninstall, then reinstall them.
3. DO NOT remove any apps unless you unlock! Info is in that link also.
4. I have no idea on that one.

Sorry bout that. Linux drivers are native, so they're anyway installed.
You use either fiddy629 root for Linux, or Framaroot.

I tried fiddy619's thing here using the universal linux one. It asked me for ADB. Found that debian has "android-tools-adb" so I installed that, now there's this:
Code:
Using: /usr/bin/adb
Waiting for device... Connect your LGOG via USB in Charge Only Mode
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
Device found
Beginning Root Process
Disconnect your phone from USB
Disable USB Debugging
Enable USB Debugging
Press enter to Continue
I can't tell if this is telling me to do these things, or if it's saying it already did them. Any idea?

Awesome, glad to hear it worked! Which if you have SuperSU it should have. I too only use linux(Linux Mint specifically) and while most guides are made for Windows, things are usually easier from the linux terminal because we don't need to download drivers, android uses a modified linux kernel, etc. Welcome to the forums, glad to have you here! All the info you need is here and plenty of people will be glad to help(as engine has already demonstrated). As for the alternative app markets, Ive read plenty and tested a few but really, nothing comes close to the play store. On our phone Banks Gapps is the standard google apps package to install if you are flashing a custom rom. Just make sure you get the correct version of gapps for the version of android your rom is based on.

I can start a separate thread regarding this issue, but if you have any insight, figured it couldn't hurt to ask real quick.

Are you doing this with the phone turned on and booted into the os? It gives you a PTP error first, make sure the phone is in MTP. At the bottom you also have a LIBMTP error tho. I don't have much experience with debian but from what I understand it is extremely stable but the downside is that it can be a bit out of date at times. Ubuntu and all ubuntu derivatives had a major mtp flaw awhile back but it has since been fixed. Im not sure if it has been fixed in debian. Yes ubuntu is based off of debian, but just like linux mint will add things to the ubuntu base, ubuntu will do the same to the debian base. So LIBMTP MAY be out of date, Im not sure. I know that I have no problem seeing my phone from either the terminal or file browser. Check this out and see if it helps any.
If not you may have to follow engine's advice and format the sd.
EDIT: Also this might work, it is for linux mint but adding the repository and installing it should work on debian(I think) since they all use .deb files. Before ubuntu officially supported mtp by default this was the most popular work around.

The first thing you linked to (steneteg.org or somesuch) was another avenue I went down trying to solve this, but alas it resulted with much the same problems. The second link to the linuxmint forums looked very promising, the only problem with it is the ppa has been dropped by webupd8 so it no longer is available (404s).
I have just discovered earlier today that adb push/pull works for getting things onto/off of my device, but I can't use adb to mount the device to allow it to be seen with a filemanager (thunar in this case). So, that's progress I think.
EDIT : I just saw mention somewhere of androidair, have yyou any experience with this app's reliability/security?

You can try searching for other places where go-mptfs is located, other ppas where it still might be. The ubuntu forums also has this as a possible solution. I haven't used androidair but I have moved files over wifi using the sshdroid app and an ssh server on my pc with great success. If you have any experience with ssh that could be a possible solution although it is obviously slower than usb. But ssh in general is a simple and great tool, also pretty secure since you are simply connected to your home wifi - as long as your wifi is secure you should be fine.
On my pc I believe its openssh that I use - plenty of tutorials out there for that - and here is the link to sshdroid in the play store. Hope this helps!
EDIT: I will also be at work until 2p.m. EST so may not be able to reply back until then - don't worry, I will as soon as I get home if you have any other issues.
Ok so i'm pulling whats left of my hair out as I cannot seem to be able to remove this pest of a driver , windows 8.1 Pro is insisting my Nexus 5X is a TP-Link Android Phone and keeps over writing my google adb drivers so my fastboot / adb no longer works , has / is anybody having this problem? wugfresh install wont overwrite the TP-Link either all universal adb installers wont work either

Kind of surprised you're still running Windows 8.1. Windows 10 is free for you and better in just about every way, regardless of the UI changes. Just a recommendation, though I doubt it'd fix your issue.
There's an easy way to tackle this but it depends on how the driver is being installed. If you're connecting your phone to your computer and Windows is insisting on downloading and installing this "TP-Link" driver from Windows Update, there is a way to disable this in a few easy steps. If you're connecting your phone to your computer and Windows just assumes that it's a "TP-Link Android Phone" and applies the wrong pre-loaded driver (usually gives you a notification near the clock) then we're gonna have to get a bit crafty.
EDIT: Silly question. You don't have USB tethering or any wacky app that would be causing this issue, right?

Would you mind doing something for me before performing the steps I'm going to list below? Go into Device Manager with the phone plugged in and installed as the stupid "TP-Link" BS and find it in the list of devices. Should probably be under Portable Devices or something. Right click it and click Properties, go to the Driver tab and click "Driver Details". All of the drivers should be located in the 'system32/DRIVERS' folder. Mind giving me the names of those drivers listed? Naming convention is typically driverName.sys.
Additionally, we're going to try a Group Policy change. Hit Windows Key + R and type 'gpedit.msc' and hit enter. A window labeled "Local Group Policy Editor" should come up. Then do the following:
Expand Computer Configuration (Left hand side, the navigation panel)
Expand Administrative Templates
Expand System
Expand Device Installation
Click Device Installation Restrictions
On the right hand side, now, there should be a list of restrictions. Somewhere in that list there should be an item "Prevent installation of devices not described by other policy settings". Double-click that and another window named the same thing should pop up. In the top left, set it to enabled and click Apply, then OK.
Unplug your phone and get rid of that ****ty driver if you haven't already and then restart and try connecting the phone again to see if the same incorrect driver install occurs.
@MKD73 You ever get this sorted out?
Sorry been away on holiday for the weekend , I'll be taking a look in the morning :victory:
Please give update
Have you resolved this issue? My laptop is acting the same. Device manager sees my phone as "TP-Link Android Phone" with sub category of "Android Bootloader Interface." I can't use ADB with it, not recognized.
I tried doing what Alcolawl said but nothing happens. When I right click the "TP Link--- it just says general properties, no 'drivers' etc. I saw the 'driver' option in the "Andoid bootloader Interface" . It says the driver is: winusb.sys, wdfCoInstaller01009.dll and WinUSBInstaller2.dll. When I tried to edit the group, it says "Windows can not find gpedit.msc
Hope you can help me. My phone is stuck in fastboost mode- LG D838

Hi Kalikotpepot,
Got the same issue here., Nexus 5x keeps on rebooting, no way to get to recovery and shows as TP Link on my computer. Did you manage to sort it out somehow?

I did it. Execute :
Code:
rundll32.exe newdev.dll,DeviceInternetSettingUi 2
and prevent driver from being installed.
Help me please!
Did you guys manage to fix it? I tried everything you people said but it didn't work. I have a Blu Vivo Xi+ and my PC only recognizes it as TP-LINK Android Phone. I dumbly deleted it's OS and all it's data when trying to update it. I only have access to TWRP and fastboot, is there a way to fix it? I would love if someone could assist me ?.
Hiya folks.
I am feeling like kind of an idiot here but I can't find this magical virtual CD that allegedley contains the USB Drivers I need to allow ADB to play nicely with my phone.
The phone is connected, I can see and browse the internal storage on the "OnePlus 9 Pro 5G" folder - But there's no virtual CD showing up at all. I have tried with and without developer mode in all of the connection options (Charge only, Files, Photos).
I wouldn't mind except I want to unlock the bootloader, and I can't find any USB drivers that will work. There are a lot of dodgy looking sites, but none of them seem legit at all.
I am using Windows 11, and it's an unlocked North American T-Mobile phone.
[Update, tried on Windows 10 as well but that didn't have it either]

Are you talking about USB drivers for the OnePlus phone?

Yes... I have managed to install it using somebody else's suggestion of installing "Driver Booster" which found and corrected it for me - But I'd still like a proper install package for it and I have no idea where that magical Virtual-CD is!
(Also I just noticed that my signature is about a decade or more out of date )

Just do a Google search for latest OnePlus USB drivers and you will find them very easy. Make sure to disable driver signature verification on PC and reboot before installing drivers and reboot after installing. Done!
Here are the drivers provided by support along side the MSM tool:
