I just updated to the fifth pre-release of PhantomPhreak's CM10 and for some reason I can't connect to USB storage. Whenever I try to do it through the Mount USB Storage button you get when you plug USB in, the phone just reboots starting at the boot animation. When I try and mount through recovery mode, Windows can find all the drivers except Samsung MTP Device. I already made sure I have the USB drivers installed from Samsung's website. Anybody else having this problem / anybody with a fix?

Yes I have had that problem. I don't have a really reliable fix, but you can try disabling Developer Options before you mount as usb. I do know how to mount as USB from recovery, though. After you attempt to mount it, and it says that the driver installation failed, open up Device Manager (Right Click on Computer in the Start Menu and select Manage) In Device Manager, find the driver that failed to install. I think it should have a red X on it or something (Edit: It's a yellow exclamation point). Right click on it and select Update Driver Software. Choose "Browse my computer for driver software". Select Mass Storage device rather than MTP device. It should install the driver and let you connect.
By the way, the above steps may not be perfect. I am trying to write it from memory! Good luck!
Ok so I'm extraordinarily frustrated with getting this to work. I've searched the forum to the point of a headache. Something about the .inf file and hardwar id's. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers a million times. I've even reflashed the stock rom. Can anyone help? usb debugging works and PTP works. Currently back to stock and all drivers currently uninstalled.

Ok, I decided to use a laptop which has never had my N7 attached to it as MTP, only as adb for wugs (before I got comfortable with doing things manually), I had the same problem you did, this is what fixed it. I had used koushes adb driver installer on it, so his driver kept intercepting it.
First I got these drivers and unpacked them: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#
Then I plugged in my device, with PTP enabled and updated drivers and browsed to those drivers and let it install...this did not fix it.
Disable usb debugging, plug it in, enable MTP, then go into device manager, then go into the menu and show all devices, you should see something like Google ADB driver, right-click and uninstall it, selecting delete driver checkbox, then reboot your nexus 7 while still plugged in, it should redetect your N7 as a "Nexus 7" and you should see it in Computer as a Portable Media Player, then unplug the device, wait 3-4 seconds to make sure its unmounted, then plug it back in, you should now actually see files.
NOW, once I saw that that worked, I noticed PTP stopped working, leave it plugged in, switch to PTP. then you will see the ADB driver back, uninstall it again, reboot the device leaving it plugged in, it will redetect the device again, it will say MTP again even though it's in PTP, let it finish, then unplug the device, wait a few seconds, and plug it back in, now you should be able to see it connected as a camera, and should be able to see files, now I can switch PTP ro MTP and back again with debugging off resulting in it working fine.
NOTE: USB debugging only works right in PTP mode for me.. which is fine, I tested to make sure that once debugging was off, I can unplug the device, and plug it back in and I can still switch between MTP and PTP perfectly.
EDIT: Actually I am now going to try leaving debugging enabled, in MTP mode, uninstall the ADB driver and reboot the device and see if that fixes that problem too.
EDIT2: AND IT WORKED!
So now I can have debugging on and off, in MTP and PTP mode, adb devices works perfect for either mode.
In summary, i think the REAL trick here is to put the device in each mode combination one at a time, delete the device and driver from device manager and reboot the device while it's still plugged in, then unplug the device and plug it back in, you do this for every combo outlined below, a total of rebooting and unplugging/plugging in the device 3 times...because PTP+debug on or off worked already
MTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
PTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
MTP on - Debugging on - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
..at the end you should be able to have MTP and PTP fully working with or without debugging on.
Try installing Sony PC Companion. It will install the necessary drivers. Works great with my Nexus 7 when connecting to PC in Windows XP .
I'm on WIndows 8.1 and when I connect my N7 2013 to PC, it gives me error Unknown USB Device (port reset failed). Anybody knows how I could fix this issue?

mtp
ive had my n7 for couple months now and mtp never worked only ptp until about a week ago when in cleanrom thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383146&page=389 post 3877 asked 3888 answered. I checked in android devices and did not have the android composite adb interface. so I simply unistalled the drivers I had and plugged in device and bam. working great since. don't know if it was related but the day before I updated my sdk and there were some google drivers in the update list. hope this helps someone!
I don't mind airdroid as an alternative but soooo much nicer to plug in and drag and drop!! GL!!
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.

I have my new Nexus 5X with Android 6 on it. I am trying to unlock and root.
I have enabled USB debugging and OEM unlock.
I have downloaded and installed the SDK package with Platform-Tools and drivers in the 'Extras' folder.
When first plugging in the phone I install the drivers with the 'Have Disk' and browse method.
Every time, installing the driver returns an Error 'Code 10 - device cannot start. 'Android ADB interface' shows up in device manager when I plug in the phone but with an exclamation point.
I have uninstalled, downloaded fresh drivers from other sources, reinstalled, tried plugging the phone in while in 'recovery' mode (starting by pressing all 3 hardware buttons).
I uninstall every time and reboot both the computer and the phone. The drivers simply won't work.
What is going on here? Is the phone/Android 6 still too new to unlock and root?
P.S. I should also say that I go into Developer options and change the Select USB Configuration between PTP and MTP (between which, I have not seen mention of the correct choice. Does it not matter?) - I cannot chose the others RNDIS, Audio Source, or MIDI; it seems to want to default to 'Charging' when I try to change to these choices.
Having the same issues on Windows 8.1. Can't get my 5x to connect to transfer files or to show up in adb.

I was running into the same issue. The problem is you need to install them first as an ADB Interface Device (not composite) with the phone on and plugged in. From Device Manager choose the Google | Android ADB Interface (not the composite one. I saw another reference to making sure it's in PTP mode which may force it to this one as well but I didn't test). Then when you get into FastBoot mode on your phone and plug it in you can go through the same Update Driver steps and choose the "Android ADB Interface" for it as well when it shows the Nexus 5 with the yellow triangle. Then you should be good to go.

Sorry. I should have been more specific. Part of it is I did so many different approaches they've bled together in my head and I was on my way out the door yesterday when I fired off the reply.
To try to break it down from memory (going to throw in a couple of different options since I can’t seem to fully uninstall / reinstall so please provide any corrections once you get it to work or let me know if anything doesn’t match what you find and I’ll try to remember from there):
Phase I (phone on and connected to computer):
Open Device Manager. My phone shows as Android Device | Android Composite ADB Interface or Android ADB Interface.
If it is the Composite version, I believe I had to update it to the straight “Android ADB Interface to get Phase II to work)
If you don’t see that, look to see if you have any uninstalled devices by scanning for new. If so, then right click on that device, and choose “Update Driver”
Choose “Browse my computer for driver software”
Choose the “Have disk” option and browse to your USB Driver folder
From there, choose “Google | Android ADB Interface”
Phase II (phone in recovery connected to computer)
On phone, choose “Update device from ADB”
Open Device Manager and you should see the Nexus 5 under Other Devices with the yellow triangle.
Right click on it and “Update Drivers”
Choose “Browse my computer for driver software”
Choose “Let me pick from a list….”
Choose “Android Device”
Choose “Android ADB Interface”
Now you should be able to push the update over
Simple method: What I did was plug it in and wait for it to show up in device manager. Then I deleted the device (the one that shows adb) from device manager. Then I unplugged the device and plugged it back in... Then waited for drivers to install on it's own. Everything was good after that.
I have no trouble other than on Windows 10. Windows 10 doesn't even show the drivers from a list to install.

I wish it were that easy. But, no, this does not work. Nor do I believe my issue is the same as you others here, as I have Windows 7 and not the 8.1 and 10 issues that you are having.
No, no matter what driver I use, including any from your kind link, bsinc1962, they return an error, code 10 when trying just to install the drivers. I cannot go further.
What is this Code 10 error preventing drivers from installing?

As regards the attaching of files, you have to have a minimum number of posts to be able to do that.
As regards the USB, be a little more specific like what you are trying to do, which ROM you are running, whether you are rooted, what happens when you connect the phone to PC etc which will enable the members to help you.
There could be several reasons for this, but lets start with the basics.
Have you tried a different cable?
Have you selected File Transfer (MTP) from usb options?

I get a windows sound like its connecting then in the bottom right where the time is next to that is a root sign then I get a pop up saying exactly.....The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it. Recommendation.. Try reconnecting the device. If Windows still does not recognize it, your device may not be working properly. When I go to the Device Manager/Control Panel it doesnt do anything. I've tried to add adb to the path but maybe added it to wrong path now it won't come on. If there is a work around maybe to re-add to right path. Device Manager was fine before I added adb and added path as per internet search. Device Manager before would say something like error 39. I've tried MTP that doesn't get it to open up either.

On my son's pc running windows 10, I didn't have any issues connecting my OP3 to it and viewing files, nor did I have to install any drivers, same for Windows 7.
Hook phone to pc via usb cable.
Pull down notification bar and select "File Transfer" from usb options or go to Settings and search USB and select USB Preferences > File Transfer.
Browse phone from Window's file manager.
If still having issues, you can try and install Oneplus USB drivers, reboot pc and see if the phone can be recognized.

Pull down notification bar and select "File Transfer" from usb options or go to Settings and search USB and select USB Preferences > File Transfer.
Browse phone from Window's file manager.
If still having issues, you can try and install Oneplus USB drivers, reboot pc and see if the phone can be recognized.

For some reason it's working now don't know what the problem was or even if it was something I did. Either way it's fixed.

If you are running Win 10, you will have to disable driver signing before the correct drivers are installed. May be that was your issue.
