Ok, I'm having a problem here. I'm buzy on a ROM, and I have made something that I want to test. But when I try to access my phone via adb, it doesn't show up in adb devices. Just nothing. I reïnstalled adb, the drivers, rebooted the phone and computer, put on debugging mode, everything. The phone is showing in (windows) devices, but adb just don't recognize him. I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium. And on my phone Swiftdroid M5 (with ClockworkMod Recovery 3.2.0.1, which is working properly). Anyone knows what to do?
Anyone?

Heres my solution ^^ adb worked for me some weeks ago but now i had your problem too lol:
first uninstall all the adb drivers from:
Start>devicemanager
then get this :
http://www.junefabrics.com/bin2/LGDriver.exe
original LG drivers
and install
then plug your phone(debugging on of course)
then it will show 7 (i think) installations
5 of them will be done fast but 2 won't finish installation
so just go to devices and printer
rightclick on android sooner single adb interface and select troubleshooting( marked with a yellow triangle)
then just let is solve the error
the last of the 7 drivers wont install but thats not a problem
EDIT: make sure u know on which port u were doing this
Oh of course you should reinstall the adb drivers. Btw i'm in linux you can use linux for building rom. What are you using?

Hello, I tried all of the above but my device still doesn't get recognized. Is there any other way to fix this? Thanks.
I've been in the same situation like this before. My phone wasn't recognized by adb. I though it was a driver problem so I reinstall the driver million times but it doesn't help. I tried on many other computer with various OS as well but adb still can't recoginized it. At last I flash another ROM and adb can recognized my phone again. so the problem is the SDSL ROM
I see. Thanks for the info ^_^
It seems like I go through this every damn time I get a new Android device, so you'd think I'd have figured it out by now, but I haven't.
How the heck to I get ADB working for this device? It's not being recognized by the "adb devices" command right now. As far as I know, I've got the drivers installed (at least, I could communicate via fastboot). I don't know what else I need to do, and would appreciate any help.
How did you get install the drivers? If you haven't done so, you can just grab the drivers from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992345

Yes, that's where I got the drivers (and that's how I got fastboot working).
I've taken the drastic step now of uninstalling the entire SDK thing and am currently re-installing it. We'll see how that goes.
EDIT: yeah, "adb devices" still gives nothing at all.
You need to turn it on first but Developer Options are hidden in Settings. Go into About phone and tap the build version. After 7 times you will have access and you can turn on USB Debugging

do you have usb debugging on? its under development under settings. to make it appear, you need to press the about phone 7 times or so. http://www.androidcentral.com/how-enable-developer-settings-android-42

While this was, admittedly, once my problem back in the early days of android, it's not the problem this time. USB debugging is on.
EDIT: I've also reconfirmed that fastboot is still working after the whole re-installation thing.
Anyone have any other ideas? Is it correct that when I plug the phone in, it's detected add an MTP device?

thats very odd...perhaps run the android sdk and check for any updates for the drivers and whatever else is needed

That's all I can suggest as well, although I can't see what the issue could be
Yer try installing the SDK and downloading the "Google USB Drivers" from there to see if it helps.

Here try this. It's from the sdk. I just zipped it. https://www.box.com/shared/7sutkummukh4pup0rwoi

You can just get the windows executable from Google, r21
http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r21-windows.exe
Thanks, everyone who's been reading/trying to help. Unfortunately, it's still not working.
People suggesting the .exe installer - that's how I've installed it each time. Twice now I've uninstalled/reinstalled the SDK. When installing, I choose the SDK tools, SDK platform tools, the 4.2 API (which is probably unnecessary, right?), and the Google USB driver. Each time, ADB has worked *in general*, but will not recognize this device (via the "adb devices" command).
Here's how things are going right now. When I first plug the phone in (with debugging on), if it's not currently installed as a device then it automatically self-installs and shows up as an "mtp" device. I try ADB, doesn't work. I then go in and manually install the drivers found in various places around this board. When I do this, it no longer appears as MTP. This is weird, though, and I didn't notice this last night - when I look at the list of devices in Device Manager in Windows, the category it falls into is "ASUS Android Devices", under which it's listed as "Android Composite ADB Interface", and it still doesn't work.
Something seems wrong about it being listed as ASUS, though. I wonder if all these current difficulties are a result of the problems I had getting my Transformer Prime to work with ADB? If anyone sees anything above that looks like I'm doing something wrong, let me know; I think the next thing I'm going to try is doing this whole process on a fresh computer here at work that's never been exposed to android at all, see how that goes. I'll check back in after I do that.
Have you tried these drivers?...

I have, and it still doesn't work on my laptop. However...
It's working! On a shared computed at work that had never had *anything* android-related installed before. Went through the same procedure I did on my own computer, so the problem is with my laptop, I guess. Which I'm more okay with than it being a problem with the phone. I guess I need to more thoroughly remove everything from the laptop, maybe?
An update:
I DO. NOT. UNDERSTAND. why this worked; I haven't changed the drivers or anything on the laptop itself. On a whim, I changed the device type on the N4 from "media device" to "PTP device" and suddenly ADB is recognizing it on the computer where it's never worked. Should I have expected that?

I have to do that to my Nexus 7 before ADB will recognize it, so you're not alone there.
Just curious, what brand phone did you have before? If it was a samsung and you had all the samsung drivers and what not installed still, this could be causing the problem. My cousin couldn't get adb to recognize his device and we finally discovered the samsung software was conflicting in someway. He uninstalled it all and adb worked like a charm.
I had the same problem, here's what you need to do. When you plug it in, change the settings from MTP to Camera for USB settings. I don't know why, but you need to do it.

I've got four other android devices that all worked (simultaneously, at that): T-Mobile/HTC G1, Nook Color, T-Mobile/HTC G2, and an Asus Transformer Prime.
Hi, been lurking around here for a good while now....fantastic website website and I've learned so much but now I have an issue.
For what ever reason my nexus 7 will not boot, I can get into fastboot and have been following the guides to do a full factory restore through fastboot. Everything goes fine until is comes to "Sending System" then just.....stops. I have used the nexus toolkit and also the official sdk drivers and fastboot contained there. I only have an old laptop as my main pc for some reason does not recognise the nexus.
I have tried alternative USB cable too.
Does anyone have any other advice.
Also the device is complete stock no custom rom has been installed so no custom recovery available.
I really appreciate any help.
Cheers!
Okay well ive managed to get it back alive!
used a new laptop and usb cable and it all seems to be fine now!
Now back to my original issue...windows 8 is pissing me around and wont recognise the bloody thing!
Any ideas?
Try a search, shouldn't be hard to find what others have done with Windows 8 difficulties...

Go to Device Manager, show hidden devices and uninstall any Android or ADB related devices that you have. Disable USB debugging on your Nexus, then plug it into your PC and see if it's recognized. If it is, then re- enable USB debugging, then go to Device Manager and reinstall the Google USB drivers to get ADB support back.
Thanks for the advice, first thing I did was try searching....I have tried countless methods suggested but nothing works its like windows cant find the drivers. In the device manger its recognised but no diver installs no matter what I do. If I force the manual driver install it fails!? I have tried the Naked drivers, the SDK even making sure the media components of windows are installed properly
For some reason, I can no longer get any computer to recognize my Nexus 4 when connected by USB. I can charge but cannot get the phone recognized.
A couple weeks ago, everything was working fine. I was running Cataclysm (November build based on 4.3). I upgraded to the Nexus 5 and decided to give the Nexus 4 to my daughter. I was able to connect the Nexus 4 to the computer and move all my photos and music etc off of the phone. After moving my files off and doing a Titanium backup and Nandroid just in case, I did a complete wipe on CMW (6.0.3.5). Everything fired up fine and I had no reason at the time to test the USB.
However, last week, my daughter was complaining about bad battery life and I decided to take a look and go ahead and update the phone to the latest (Dec. 12) Cataclysm build based on 4.4.2. Before flashing the new build, I connected the phone to the computer by USB but could not get the computer to recognize the phone. The phone charges, but is not recognized in device manager and does not connect.
I've done everything I can think of to troubleshoot the issue - all without luck - including:
Turned USB debugging on and off. No luck.
Changed the USB storage mode from MTP to PTP and back. No luck.
Confirmed fast charging isn't somehow enabled. It isn't.
Tried several different USB cables. No luck.
Tried a different Nexus 4 and my Nexus 5 on the same computer. They work.
Tried the subject phone on a different computer running Windows. No luck.
Tried the subject phone on a computer running Mac OS. No luck.
I did go ahead and flash the latest Cataclsym build (I did a full wipe again) but sill no change. I don't see any evidence of physical damage to the micro USB port but I took a small toothrush and gently cleaned the contacts with rubbing alcohol.
At this point, I believe the problem is either the a) the port is bad or b) somehow, the phone software/ROM is screwed up.
Is there any way to determine whether the physical port is bad? Any other ideas. I'm kind of at the end of my capability here.
can adb recognize it?

I don't think so. I'll have to check tonight when I get home. I tried to get Wug's toolkit to recognize the phone with no luck but haven't tried that command on its own.

No luck. I attached the Nexus 4 to the computer, entered a command prompt to navigate to the platform tools director that has the adb files and entered the "adb devices" command. The response was "List of devices attached" with no phone (or anything else) listed.
I have that issue too. I´m on windows 8 and to root and being able to recognize by the pc I changed it to PTP. It only works in PTP and I have to pass all the data to the camera folder to send info

I don't think I've got the same issue. I cannot get any computer to recognize the phone under any mode (storage, photo, debugging on, debugging off). Nada. At this point, I'm pretty sure it's the port gone bad. I just wiped the phone again and clean flashed the stock 4.4.2 ROM, radio and bootloader. Still no connection.
Argh.

can you try going to recovery, then type adb devices?

I had this problem and i found away to fix it. Plugin your phone to a computer. Start > right click on my computer > properties > device manager. Look for Samsung > expanded it you will find Nexus 4. Right click on it and choose uninstall and check uninstall driver. Unplug your phone and restart the computer. Re-plug the phone and wait for the drivers to install.

Hello everyone. I need a little help. I am trying to install a rom on my phone. USB debugging is enabled I am currently running the new 7.1 that just came out. ADB sees the phone what it is booted up. However it will not see the phone in bootloader. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, manually installing the drivers. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

Adb doesn't work in bootloader, you have to use fastboot commands, such as "fastboot devices", etc.
