Hey everyone,
I cant get my phone to be shown in Windows File Explorer.
Yes I already switched to Datatransfer via the notification.
I tried different cables, rebooted both devices, turned on USB-Debugging, but its just not showing up.
When attaching my OnePlus 7 Pro it works perfectly fine.
Any Ideas?

It's usually either the cable or the port, maybe try out another USB slot on your PC.

Mine wouldn't either and to get it to open I had to have developer options turned on. That was the first thing I did when I received the phone, turn developer options on and when it's off the computer won't recognize the phone so I just leave it on all the time.

I've had the exact same issue ever since first getting the 6 Pro. Tried different cables, different ports, developer options is on, tried every single different USB driver I could find etc etc.
The only way I can get my PC to see the phone is to choose "PTP" as the connection method and then it will just show me the photo folders on the phone. Highly frustrating!

curious what device manager says for you guys? under Portable Devices (with usb debugging disabled) - Pixel 6 or LeMobile?

Have you tried with this driver installed?
Get the Google USB Driver | Android Studio | Android Developers
The Google USB Driver is required to perform adb debugging on Windows with Google devices.
developer.android.com
Make sure your device's DEFAULT USB CONFIGURATION under Developer Options (half way down) is set to "file transfer/android auto". Mine was set to "no data transfer" by default
Type C to Type C works just fine.

This is what mine shows. You know, now that I think about it, I saw in Windows there were "optional" updates (second screenshot), two of which say "LeMobile". If yours says LeMobile, try uninstalling those drivers from Device Manager and installing the official Google ones as @Lughnasadh
suggested https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb. You can also do as @Az Biker suggested, or each and every time you connect your phone to your computer, you'll have to toggle the notification to set it to USB file transfer mode (third screenshot).

When you click on your notification, you don't see the option I have chosen below "Use USB for" "File transfer / Android Auto" (first screenshot)?. Also, as I believe has also been suggested, you can go into Developer Options and choose "Default USB configuration", and then choose "File transfer / Android Auto" from there (second and third screenshots).
If you don't see the same options as I show in these screenshots, can you post some of what you do see?
The Pixel 6 seems to be somewhat sensitive to some cables. A few things: if you have ADB Debugging on, then the driver will show as an ADB interface under Android Device. so if you are just wanting to transfer files, turn it off. it should work with developer options disabled. Also, sometimes if your usb drivers aren't updated or installed properly, then it won't show up properly. a lot of computers don't have usb-c ports so just make sure all your drivers are up to date (using the official manufacturer's method, not third party driver apps). And on a PC, try using the ports on the back of the computer. Different cables and last but not least try a different computer. this will resolve 99% of issues. last tip is to try connecting the phone when its in safe mode.
Brand new Pixel 6 and Windows 10 with latest updates. I've tried everything from various cables to uninstalling and reinstalling drivers with no joy. In PTP, the pixel shows up in device manager under portable devices and also in file explorer, but only with ADB debugging enabled. Switch to USB File Transfer and it disappears. My workaround is to create a folder in DCIM, copy with PTP to the new folder, and then using the Android Files app, move the files to where I want them. Very frustrating. Almost making me wish I had stuck with my Huawei.
Under Android devices in Device Manager, it read Google Nexus ADB Driver. I uninstalled and then deleted the driver, Android Composite Interface self-installed, and now File Transfer works. Go Figure.
Forget about adb drivers, that has nothing to do with UMS, so don't waste your time.
I'd suggest *trying* with a linux liveusb to see if it works there. If it does, it rules out a hardware problem and demonstrates that there is nothing wrong on the phone side, and confirms that the problem is, as with most problems, the fault of that windows trash.
Right click the ADB-device in device manager (somehow it says ACER @ mine), choose properties > manual driver update and choose the standard usb-mtp driver. After that you will see your pixel and its contents (when u choose file transfer).

^100%.
adb/fastboot are completely different drivers and have nothing to do the Mass Storage drivers that are built into windows since WinME. There is no driver to download. Make sure USB debugging is off on the pixel (and better yet entire developer options just to get this working). Make sure there are no "unknown devices" in Device Manager when the phone isn't plugged in because that could be a usb driver issue.
Then connect a known working cable that you've used before. Use the back usb ports of its an older computer. These drivers are built into windows (For Mac you will need to download the File Transfer drivers from Android's website).
If that still doesn't work, try another computer. You'll be going in circles until you've verified that the computer and cable are working. Process of elimination.
You can try the free nirsoft.com app called USBDeview to see if it's shows up, but 99% sure its a cable or windows issue.

With all due respect, I beg to differ. I neglected to mention previously that it only works with ADB debugging on. With debugging off, no joy. I must have something to do with ADB. I have gone around in the circles described by Alekos and what I posted above is the only thing that has worked. With ADB debugging on and with Android Composite ADB Interface installed on device manager under Android Device, it works. With ADB debugging off, it doesn't work. By the way, I have used a good cable on multiple computers without success.

Ok, I've just upgraded to windows 7. I was pretty psyched about the whole thing, and my computer seems like a whole new machine, coming from XP 32 bit.
So one thing I'm attempting to get adb to work with my phone. Heres my first problem - right off the bat, my computer doesnt recognize my phone as anything but an unknown device. YES I'VE TRIED DEBUGGING, DISK DRIVE, ETC., but nothing works.
I go to device manager, all I see is unknown device. Ok fine. I download the adb files that allow you to download the Android 2.1 thing and usb drivers. Still nothing works. I go to device manager, try to update the drivers for said "unkown device" and i get a message "the drivers are the newest up to date" or something. I try downloading the 64-bit HTC Hero drivers, same thing. I download and install HTC Sync, same thing.
I get this message when I plug the phone in...
"USB Device not recognized
One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message"
So my question is, how do i get my computer to recognize my phone, even as storage device??

try uninstalling htc sync and using a different usb port. does that work?
And to address how to get it to recognize as a drive, when you plug it in you should be presented with options where you can make it a disk drive. Or pull down your notification bar and change the type.

On the phone yes, I can select a different type. On my computer, I just get that unknown device message.
And out of the blue I just tried a different USB port, and now it works as a storage device.
Did you restart the computer after installing the drivers? Sometimes mine gets a little goofy like that.

i had that issue with one of my usb ports too. i think sometimes a bank of usb ports are used as basically a usb hub, and the evo doesn't like that, from what i understand.
Reboot comp, reboot EVO. Connect 'em, and then go into Device Manager, uninstall the "unknown device" (EVO), and then have it scan for new devices. Now, when it says scanning for drivers (or something to that effect) look for an advanced or "skip checking Windows Update for drivers" option. Then navigate to the ADB drivers in the Android SDK and tell it to use those. Make sure you have USB Debugging turned on, and EVO's set for "Charging Only".
If that still doesn't work, then there's an incompatibility with your computer's USB controller and Win7.

If your computer is old enough, incompatibility is a possibility. See if there's other ports you can use, like on a different side of the case. Also, what brand computer?

stop! lol its fine. it works. i guess i should have stated that i've been on these forums for quite a while, and have flashed and rooted a few different phones using this computer, but with xp.
i just switched to windows 7, and of course lost all my drivers, and everything I had saved would have to be switched to 64-bit. I just couldnt get anything to work, but it seems to work now.
and I dont know what brand necessarily this computer is. i built it. I do have a dell keyboard though.
I'm suddenly having a problem with my Nokia Lumia 800. For some reason my PC is failing to install the Windows Phone 7 portable device driver. I get an "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)" error.
I've tried un-installing the drivers and reinstalling them but I still get the same problem? Any ideas? Thanks

Make sure that you have the automatic driver downloading from Windows Update turned on. You can turn it on in the "Installing device drivers" screen when you plug in a USB device.

No luck with that.
Uninstall the drivers for Windows Phone 7 and Windows Phone USB.
Restart the PC and then attach the phone.
Try to use a different USB port.
If that don't work then i'd suggest a new USB cable
I've tried a different USB cable that's working with another Nokia Lumia 800 in the office and still the same problem. I've tried different USB ports and I've also tried this USB Cable and Lumia on a different PC and it installed the drivers correctly and worked fine.
Is there any settings that I may have changed that could have casued the error code 31. The phone charges up fine from the USB port, what ever is causing the 31 error is the problem?

I want restore/Install booloader to QLOAD/Qcom but:
NSS not find my phone.
NSS 0.47.0 Beta - Quick Install & Restore of the 710 bootloader - xda-developers
I am unable to get Windows to mount my Pixel XL in MTP mode. I have the Pixel's screen turned on and unlocked, and the connection option on the phone's pull down menu is set to transfer files. Windows is able to mount the phone when it is in picture transfer mode, but not in MTP mode.. When I look in Window's device manager I can see that the MTP device is connected but I'm getting a yellow triangle exclamation, as in the driver is no good. I uninstalled the driver and tried letting Windows reinstall to no avail. I have searched the web for MTP drivers for Windows, but I can't really find anything. The specific version of Windows that I am using is Windows 10 Education 64.
The main reason for my concern is that I am about to attempt to apply the new root method that is available, and I wasn't sure if I needed to be connected successfully via MTP before I get the ball rolling with ADB. I do have the ADB drivers installed, along with ADB and fastboot and that seems to be working fine. When I run the command 'adb devices' the console shows that my Pixel XL is connected. I am assuming that I should be good to go on that front, but I still want to know why MTP is not working on Windows, and how I can fix it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a screen shot of what Window's device manager is showing me.

I tried that already. I stumbled across it while searching for a solution. The adb and fastboot parts worked well but not the regular mtp drivers. I think maybe the problem has to do with Windows itself.
I had a similar issue with my Pixel C tablet. I don't remember which driver that I had to use but I eventually got it to work. I believe that I ended up needing PDANet to resolve. I am using the same computer for my Google Pixel phone. I have successfully been able to use MTP on my Google Pixel phone and have access to all the files via file explorer.
I noticed the same thing. When I first attached my phone to the laptop I could see the phone in device manager. Couldn't get into internal storage. Changed the phone from mtp to picture mode then back to mtp and was able to get in. I have to use this method whenever I attach my phone to the laptop using Windows 10. I didn't get any yellow exclamation signs at any time.
plug your phone to your computer then check the notifications,tap on the USB charging this device for other options...just tick the usb to transfer files ....

This was from Microsoft's site, is a little quicker. It would be nice if this got fixed.
(1) Go to C:\Windows\INF
(2) Type "wpdmtp.inf" in search bar provided to the right of the address bar in Windows 10.
(3) Once you found it, just right click on it and select install. It will take a very few seconds.
(4) Connect your device to the pc.

I don't know if it's a coincidence because USB 3.0 is still not fully supported or functional on all new motherboards. Even the brands that claim to and brag about having it still have a half ace implementation of it. I'm looking at you Asus and Gigabyte!!! :crying: I have had to stop using their boards because I've gotten too many complaints from customers.
I can never get any 3.0 device to run off my 3.0 ports, wtf?! I can get flash drives to work all day for sure though!!!:silly:
i'm running an ASUS MB too...perhaps there are more variables to this equation than we want to believe.

I'll grant you that, some of those things happen to me too. But as for a driver not recognizing the device this thread fixes that. That doesn't have anything to do (afaik) with USB 3.0. This was just a silly driver that lost its way. As soon as I tried the method here everything was back to normal.

Windows! Lol.
So, after upgrading to Android 8.1 OPP28-85-13 . somehow I could not upgrade to version OPP28-85-16 (OFFICIAL VERSION) and so I tried to update the computer, but the same did not recognizes the cell phone.
I already installed the drivers of the motorola 5x, I changed PC, cable, I activated USB debugging, I already changed that MTP option and nothing! The cell phone does not live on the PC, the only thing that happens is that it carries, nothing else! Does anyone have a solution to this? I'm stuck in a version that still has bugs and I can not update anymore ... I've tried everything!
Excuse my English, I'm from Brazil and I can not find anyone here to solve this.
Assuming you did find the correct OTA to go from OPP28-85-13 to OPP28-85-16, you'd have to go to fastboot, and I doubt those options matter then. Also if you didn't sign up for soak test you wouldn't be able to go from a soak to official version through OTA. Check if your PC recognizes your phone in fastboot.

it does not work in fastboot mode, in fact it is as if the cell phone was dead, it stopped working on the computer, it only loads, I already installed drivers, everything ... but no use, I already tried to use rsd lite but it does not recognize!
Kinda dumb but you're using fastboot command right? Last time that happened to me I was using adb devices and it never showed up

to recognize in fastboot mode, the cell phone does not need to be recognized on the pc first? I connect the USB cable and it's the same as nothing, besides that, debugging usb also does not work to proceed in fastboot
Nope. If it's in fastboot, it won't get recognized as an actual device, you'll just hear the plugging sound and be able to interact with it via commands

Does not recognize, neither in fastboot nor in normal mode
@kolple
Hey I know you said you installed drivers and all.. But maybe you should uninstall them and try again. This really sounds like a driver problem honestly.
You could try looking up for UsbDeview on google. It's a pc app which lets you see installed devices.. You could uninstall everything related to your Moto g5.. Then reinstall official Motorola drivers.

I already tested it on other computers, and the same thing happens, does not install anything, nor does the device manager appear. It is as if the cell phone was no longer receiving data through the cable ... I do not know, it could be an android bug or the faulty usb port, some solution to that?

This is odd for sure. I wish I could help more honestly. Trying USB 2.0 or 3.0 ports doesn't change anything right? Probably not.

I would say update your adb/fastboot
I never use minimal adb/fastboot but always the package that comes with the full android sdk
Also try a different USB cable
And you can try cmd as admin instead of the windows power shell not that it should make a difference

No application that will connect USB will not work, nor with debugging, no use! My salvation would be if there was an application that does these methods over wifi.

Exactly! But it does not recognize on the system, on any computer. In fastboot it appears that it recognized, but without signal ... With the cellphone turned on normal, also nothing appears in the computer, even with usb debugging

Have you tried in device manager to scan for hardware changes when the phone is connected? And of course you selected mtp right? Have you selected mtp in developer options? You should try to revoke USB debugging authorizations ( right under USB debugging) this will reset the adb permission you first allowed. You should get prompt for permission again when you type adb devices under cmd ( if phone is seen by pc)
When you check your installed programs on pc do you have other USB drivers installed at the same time as the Motorola ones? If so that might cause some issues.

USB HOST DIAGNOSTIC
Okay, this is getting kind of ridiculous. I cannot get any computer to see the 9 pro via ADB devices.
This is my 4th Oneplus phone I currently own. So I know what I'm doing. All my other phones have bootloaders unlocked and rooted. No issues, until now. I just bought this one. Been waiting for the unlock bin file because it's the T-Mobile variant, but found out that I don't need the bin file to unlock the bootloader, but need ADB to see it !
Fastboot devices will see the phone but not ADB. I even just reformatted my laptop and started from scratch. Followed all of the guides I could find, and I STILL cannot get ADB to see this phone. Why is this phone different ?
Anyways. Anyone have any ideas cause I'm out of them.
Install all the proper drivers. How are you connecting the OnePlus 9 pro to your PC?
Are you using windows or linux?
If you are using linux, I can't help you out.
Enable USB debugging via developer options and go to USB configuration:
Select usb debugging as the default.
When you want to transfer files, select file transfer.
Also, do you have access to another usb cable?

Hi and thanks for the link. I have tried all of that except the universal drivers which I just installed. No difference. When the phone is booted it shows up as USB composite device. And when I try to update the driver, even after disabling driver verification, it will accept the driver but will show a small yellow icon over the newly installed driver.
In bootloader mode ADB does not see the phone but fastboot does. It looks like this could be a driver issue but the only Oneplus drivers I've found are from 2012.

Disable Driver Signature Enforcement in windows - google this
then reinstall oneplus 9 drivers from manufacturer
OnePlus messed up the signature of their drivers for the Oneplus 9 pro and windows doesn't install it properly.

Yes I did that. It's currently in that state of driver verification is currently disabled. I can change the driver right now with no problem. But it's still the same result. Are there newer drivers than from what I found ?

Can you show me a picture of your device manager? Also how is your device connected to pc - Direct usb-c to usb-c slot or adapter? If so, I recommend using a pci-slot based usb-c connector port.

It's connected with a USB A - C cable. In device manager it says kedacom USB device. After installing the drivers from the link @TheGhost1951 sent me. It now set itself up as a Universal Serial Bus Device - ADB interface.
In bootloader mode it shows up in device manager with whatever driver I had chosen from before. ADB still can't see the device on either my desktop or newly formatted laptop.
So a pic of the device manager will show basically that. Whatever driver I have chosen. But any driver I chose, ADB still won't find the phone. Regardless what I do on either computer.

Can you tell me what should be the proper name of the driver that should be installed ?
And do you think that this might be a hardware issue ?
Also, I've noticed that debugging is randomly getting turned off.

If driver is correct, your device should show up in device manager on PC as a port with description as 9008.....ex:Qualcomm USB hub 9008 or something similar. Google latest Qualcomm USB drivers... Make sure driver signing is turned off on PC, there should be a watermark in bottom right hand corner stating test mode. One the correct drivers are installed, reboot PC and then you are ready to start the MSM tool process.

Okay thanks for that info. But I have yet to see that qualcomm port yet on either of my computers. No matter what I do it doesn't seem to change anything. Certainly nothing near having a qualcomm port in device manager.
I would be willing to completely reformat my laptop and install the recommended drivers from this post if I knew it would definitely work.
But I'm starting to think at this point that this might be a hardware issue.
