Just picked up the Pixel XL from verizon, not sure if the problem is with my computer or the phone. I go to click USB Transfer and nothing happens on my computer, I have drivers installed but nothing happens. I just moved from the asus zenfone 2 and thought I deleted all the drivers from that, I really didn't think those drivers would have a problem though.

Nah, they shouldnt. Can you post a screen shot of you Windows Device Manager? And tell what ver of Windows you are on please?
Also, did you go back to phone, pull the dropdown and select file transfer?
Yup, I've selected all of them only thing device manager is showing is the adb drivers. Im running Windows 10 insider preview.
Uninstall the adb drivers, and then plug the phone in. This worked for me.

After flashing Emerald Envy my phone does not mount anymore, and yes i uninstalled and reistalled drivers again, changed the port location, everything. Anybody?
Bad USB cable maybe? My stock USB cable will charge just fine but if I use it to try and mount my phone nothing shows up anymore.

Does your phone make the connection noise on the computer? If so go to control panel>system> device manager find Samsung Android as either Other or in USB and click it and hit update drivers and wait while Windows finds the 5 drivers it needs. I have 2 phones, all of a sudden one could connect and one wouldn't. Updated the drivers and now one shows up as F and the other as E..go figure.
Turn on usb debugging if it's off. Turn off usb debugging if its on.
I tried all of this and still nothing guys anything else?

Did Windows load all 5 drivers from Windows update?

Windows Update wouldn't get any of the drivers for me (Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1) so I had to install the ones that came with one of the OneClickRoot zips.

Hey everyone. I am attempting to put my pictures I have on my Note on to my portable hard drive. I have done this in the past with other phones. I am not sure why but when I plug my Note 4 into my Windows 8 laptop it is recognized. I see a folder and when I click that I see more folders. But nothing is inside any of these folders. I remember I used to be able to just plug the phone in and see my pictures that I have on my sdcard and I can transfer them from phone to HD. I am not sure why buy it doesn't work. Any ideas?

USB Debugging checked? Have you allowed your computer to receive from your phone. Up to date Samsung driver?
it's an odd situation, but sometimes, you just have unlock your phone for your PC to see your phone storage(s), assuming you have proper drivers installed on your pc.

Ok, crazy sounding... Had the same issue.... Thought I would just have to update the drivers... My neighbor just got a moto x... He wanted it rooted... I installed the Motorola drivers and bang my pc could see my GN4...dunno just fyi...
Definitely should install the samsung drivers if you haven't already. Try switching through the USB modes - MTP to PTP and back to MTP.
Hello,
big problem here.
My 5X just stopped showing up on my PC. It used to work fine before, but then stopped a few days ago.
I thought it might be related to the Encryption, so I just wiped everything (internal storage). But still the same problem and now I dont even have an OS installed. It's not even recognized in fastboot mode.
I ordered an USB OTG Adapter now. Hopefully I can push files with an USB stick to the phone then.
Any suggestions how I can make my Windows 10 recognizing the phone again? I also tried different Windows 10 PCs. Its not even showing up in device manager, no sound at all when I plug it in, its just charging...

I have a similar problem. My phone shows up in device manager, but I cant access the phone at all and in device manager it says no drivers are installed. Can't seem to install them again. Are you in the beta program and running 7.1.2?

Nope, I was running Resurrection Remix N 7.1.1
So I managed to push a ROM to my phone via USB OTG.
I tried 2 different ROMs, all stuck on bootloop. Any idea?
It still doesnt get recognized from my pc.
go to C:\Windows\INF there search for wpdmtp.inf than right click on that file than on install. make sure your phone is connected while performing these steps.P.S C is my drive where windows is installed. idk will that help you or not but at least try and see.

When i connect my phone to the pc the only thing i see is a cd drive with hisuite on it. I'm getting crazy, all of a sudden i can't transfer my files anymore. I looked all morning for a solution but i couldn't find one. Is there anyone who could help me?
Can you confirm you are using the connection in MTP mode?

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.
Just install Hisuite or Android USB drivers and connect it through MTP, it will recognise the device

Yes you can! Once your device is recognised as MTP device and drivers are installed, then you will see a Honor 8 Pro MTP device symbol in the Explorer, double click it and you can find it as normal USB Drive, then just copy paste like a USB Drive

I reinstalled hisuite but now it won't even show the window on the phone that authorizes adb connection. BTW i'm pretty sure that even when i managed to connect it to hisuite the only thing shown in the explorer was this damn cd drive
Why would you need hi suite? Transferring files doesn't need it. Just plug it in and select the mtp from notification on phone.

That's how I've done it until recently when it stopped working, maybe after a windows update Idk. Now when I connect it and select mtp I only see this cd drive

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.
just wondering... is there anyway to turn off/ disable this CD thingy? kinda annoying actually... pops up whenever I plug into my PC. even though i have set default action to do nothing, it is basically still there as CD drive and i can "eject" it. i wish for it to just go away...

If you have installed the Hisuite, it will go away! And then when you select the MTP, your device will be seen as Honor 8 Pro MTP device

not into installing any additional software. never liked such idea even when I was using Samsung. I have even enabled default connection mode as MTP under Developer Options, but it still defaults to charging only... annoying.
i guess worst case... when I can't stand it anymore, i'll install HiSuite.

Windows makes a connection sound but nothing pops up in "this pc" or device manager. Device manager refreshes but nothing related to Pixel 3xl. Only thing in device manager is 3 logitech devices under other devices. Very strange indeed

Try a different USB cable and port. C to c cables have issues if you're using one of them.
