Hello. I received the phone today. I had a rooted desire HD before this.
My windows 7 is newly installed so I had to install 32bit/64bit java SDK, and android SDK. I downloaded the usb drivers, the platform tool package and so on.
The problem is that, although the USB debugging is turned on on the G.Note, windows won't recognize it as a ADB Android Phone. Under 'devices' I can see:
- CDC Serial
- SAMSUNG_Android
Both with a "!" : needing drivers.
ADB is correctly installed, and if I type 'adb devices' in the prompt, no serial number of any device is displayed. If I try to start the root procedure (through the .bat file), WAITING FOR DEVICE : it just doesn't find the phone and nothing starts.
I tried searching manually for the driver: device - properties - SAMSUNG_Android - find driver manually - extra\google\usb-driver ...... but it doesn't install it !
I didn't have these problems with the desire HD....as long as the phone is not recognized as a Android Phone (without "!")....I can't start the root procedure !!
What am I doing wrong ??
Oh and also:
- tried changing USB port
- rebooted both systems
- uninstalled the 'SAMSUNG_android' device, then plugged it in again....same thing, not recognized as Android Phone
have you tried to install Kies?
i think i am stupid...that's the equivalent of htc sync right? i'll try again and hope that it will make the difference.
yeah, it should install the
right drivers. after that, be sure kies is closed properly in order to use odin.

Do you have multiple android devices installed? I have had the same issue when I tried to install drivers for my p6800. Deinstalled htc software AND drivers, then tried again, worked perfectly.
No, no other drivers. I recently reformated my laptop and still a no go. Whatever items do install it allows me to access both external and internal drives, but those 2 items dont and just get "drivers not installed"

After several hours of frustration, I'm just going to ask.
I have USB debugging enabled. When I plug in the Nexus 4 Windows auto installs drivers for MTP.
It's listed under portable devices in device manager. I am trying to uninstall the driver and install the Naked driver. But as soon as I uninstall in device manager, Windows reinstalls, despite me having turned off auto-installation of drivers. I am not able to use the advanced method listed here http://www.addictivetips.com/window...utomatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista because gpedit.msc doesn't exist for Home users.
I have unplugged the device and manually put it into Fastboot and plugged it in. Windows does not try to autoinstall drivers. I am able to install Naked drivers and the device appears as "Android Phone" in device manager.
How can I proceed?

The problem is that Windows is auto-installing the driver as soon as I uninstall it from device manager. I have this setting disabled in Device Installation Settings but nevertheless it continues auto-installing.

When you plug in your n4 in your pc, does it allow you to open the folder for your phone. If it does the drivers are installed. Mine n4 did the same as you when I plugged it in my PC, and did show Android in the device manager.
Use the nexus 4 toolkit to do it.

It's showing up as portable device, not as Android when MTP is connected. If I manually boot into fastboot, and connect to PC it will show as Android.
Nexus 4 toolkit doesn't work. When I connect the device, it still only shows up as MTP device connected.
How can I stop the "Nexus 4" driver from auto installing the MTP driver?

You could try this installer. If a prompt ever says not to install a driver just do it anyway.

I was having the same issues, toolkit didnt work, auto kept auto installing MTP only, junefabrics.com didn't work by itself, LG drivers didn't work. finally I tried the drivers in sig and adb was installed but the tool kit still didn't recognize it. I ran the one from junefabrics.com after that and hit no to not reinstall the drivers when it asks, but it's hanging when installing pdanet on my phone.

im in the same boat
I'm having these same issues. Very frustrating.
Just fixed the problem by following the directions in this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34154052&postcount=7
His instructions about cmd prompt didn't work for me, so in device manager I selected View -> Show Hidden Devices.
I removed all android, nexus, other android phones and then reinstalled the drivers via the toolkit. Seems to be working so far!
The MTP driver will always install as that's nothing to do with adb. If you open Device Manager it should have the other option - you then manually install the driver by browsing the the drivers folder when using the 'Update driver' option in the right-click menu when you click on it in Device Manager

tried pda but failed
its caused by the android 4.2.2 update...
For anyone still having problems, these are the steps I followed that fixed it for me. (After updating to the latest sdk version and downloading the google usb driver)
1. Uninstalled the driver from Device Manager
2. Let it automatically install the generic 'MTP device driver'
3. Right clicked on the new device and selected 'Update Driver'
4. Selected 'Have Disk' and pointed it to [android-sdk-dir]\extras\google
5. Watched an 'ADB' driver install.
6. Opened Eclipse to successfully run on my N4.
I am trying to connect my Nexus 4 to my PC and use the ADB commands. I have the following problems:
ADB driver is installed and "USB Debugging" turned on the Nexus 4. Device shows up on Device Manager, however "adb devices" does not list the device and unable to communicate with the attached device.
The Nexus drive, regardless of MTP or PTP disappears from Windows Explorer when "USB Debugging" is turned on, Turning off "USB Debugging" brings back the drive.
USBView shows the device with a RED light, but it appears working on Device Manager.
I do not have this problem with my other laptop and desktop.
Using Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and Nexus 4 - Stock 4.2.2
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I had sort of the same problem, try uninstalling the driver in device manager, then unplug and replug your USB. Then when you plugged in the USB go to device manager and right click on the device and click scan for hardware changes. See if that works.
I'm not sure if this is a problem caused by windows update or the new updated SDK, but it has been a big problem for me.

OK try right clicking on the the device in device manager and choose update driver, then Browse my computer, then let me pick From a list of devices. After choose have disk on and find the file where your USB drivers are and click next. It may prompt you that windows can't verify the publisher Just click install this driver software anyway.

This is what I did and waited for the PC to install the adb drivers.
I plugged the phone in and with the USB plugged in turned it off while holding the volume up and down keys. This made my nexus 4 go into download mode and the PC automatically installed the adb drivers. After I just unplugged and held the power button to restart the device hope this helped.

When you uninstalled what's there now, you did make sure to check the box that will remove the old drivers from your PC?
Just in case, HERE is another source for the drivers.

Thanks to everyone for their help.
Just to confirm I have already tried:
Uninstalling the ADB driver via Device Manager and selecting "Delete the driver software for this device" and rebooting.
After reboot, Windows could not locate any drivers and I manually selected the drivers found inside the SDK (08/27/2012,7.0.0000)
The device shows up on Device Manager as working but does not work with adb commands. However, fastboot commands work!
I tried the above with the Naked Driver and had the exact result.
If I boot into the bootloader, I am able to run fastboot commands perfectly!
I have already ruled out my USB port as it works perfectly on VMware.
I am thinking my Windows 7 is messed up somehow and re-installation is looking like the only solution :crying:

4.2.2 requires updated adb and fastboot. It looks like you have an older version.

Thanks. I tried version 16.01 and still have this problem.
The problem is whenever I uninstall/install the ADB driver or disconnect/reconnect the USB, **ONLY** the "Nexus 4" appears on the Device Manager which I manually install the ADB drivers to. There is not a second "Nexus 4" on the Device Manager for the MTP or PTP.
On my laptop when I remove all drivers and reconnect the USB cable, I always see 2 "Nexus 4" listed on Device Manager. One for the ADB interface and the other for the MTP or PTP.
Please help!
Any ideas please?
Any Solution to ADB connection problems?
Hi was there any solution to this, as I seem to have the same issue.
I have tried different drivers and MTP & PPP modes as well as loading the PDAnet drivers and software.
Each time now I take care to remove all the drivers and also delete the drivers in all modes (Android running and Bootloader running)!
MTP & PPP load different copies of the drivers.
I can get either "Nexus 4" showing up in the device driver or "Google ADB Interface" or Android ADB interface" according to the driver loaded.
I can see the device when Android is running ie "ABD Devices" gives me the serial number and connected, then I can send an ADB command "adb Reboot-bootloader" the Nexus then reboots into the bootloader screen, the device driver changes to the bootloader driver (installs if not installed) however then I loose connection to the Nexus phone! "ADB Devices" returns none connected.:fingers-crossed:
I also tried unplugging and plugging back in the phone in bootloader mode but do not get adb to see the handset or it to react to commands.
I'm just about ready to try a toolkit to see if I can get past this roadblock!!!
Current computer is Win7-x64
This weekend I will try on a different computer.....Win8-X64
All comments appreciated
That's because you cant use adb when in boot loader. You use fastboot

I have same problem on my work laptop DELL when my custom desktop machine works just fine with both Nexus 4 and 7. :/
My device is currently allowing debug mode. It is not rooted nor unlocked.
I plugged in my device and windows gave this weird sound (sorta sounded like three low beats in quick succession). I went to my device manager and it shows a Nexus 4 with an exclamation icon.
I opened up the properties and it says
"The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.
To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver."
This is due to the fact that i uninstalled the drivers manually so i can try to reinstall them but when I chose to update the drivers and navigated to my /extras/google/usb_driver folder but immediately after i click the next button for it to install it brings up a window that says
"Windows could not find driver software for your device.
If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and visit its support section for driver software."
this comes up immediately after clicking next, if i choose to search online for driver software this same window pops up after about a minute.
What is going on and why wont it allow me to install my drivers?

Pull down from the top of your screen and select Connected as a media device to switch to PTP.
Have you installed any other USB devices lately?
Have you tried rolling back the drivers on your PC if they've been updated?
You could also follow a tool kit like Wugs for the driver installation. You don't have to root or unlock your bootloader with it.

When i plug my device in only one thing appears on the pull down menu. It says
"USB debugging connected
Touch to disable USB debuggin"
and if i touch it it brings up the developer options screen in the settings.
There is no thing that says "Connected as" or any other meaning of the words in my pull down menu.
Thanks for the link to the toolkit, if no one has any other suggestions i will attempt to use that (and hopefully that works).

Plug your phone in USB to your computer and go to your Device Manager. Under "Android Device" you should see something along the lines of "Google Nexus 4 ADB Interface". Right click, go to uninstall and then check off "Delete the driver software for this device." After this I unplugged my phone and rebooted. You may or may not need to put your phone into fastboot and uninstall the "Google Nexus 4 BootLoader Interface" driver as well (to get them both) -- I really don't remember.
I used to use toolkits as well, but I've grown to be independent of them and like to get more involved than I once did.
The short version: You said you were given the option to "Update driver". Just click that and then, from the List, pick USB Composite driver.
I am generally good at rooting any android phone. I am having a hard time locating the drivers for the VZW LG G2. I have the zip file from the post on how to root the phone, but I am not sure which file to install.
Any input would be appreciated.
If they aren't auto detected and installed after a reboot with phone plugged in, goto device manager, locate the phone and manually update driver pointing it to the LG folder full of drivers. To get the adb interface working, you may need to be in the internet connection mode with the ethernet option selected. Can't remember if that was the case or not.

I needed to install LG VZW_United_WHQL_v2.11.1 then go to LG website and download drivers from the G2 support page. I couldn't upload the exe file. Restart computer and all went well. I had same issue and struggled to solve.
So I figured out how to install the drivers but when I go to command prompt and type"adb devices" it does not recognize it as a command.

You must have the sdk with adb installed before you do that part. Browse to that directory, find adb, shift right click, open command prompt here. Then do 'adb devices'. You'll see serial # on left and 'device' on right. It's working then. If you get 'offline' on right, you need to update your adb.
i'm having the same issue. i'm trying to root, and it won't list it at all, and i'm not getting the debugging icon on top. no serial number popping up on the abd devices and i just tried with both 3.8 and 3.10 drivers. anything?
If I remember correctly I had to go to settings>pc connection>select USB connection method and then choose Internet connection, then choose modem in order to get the debugging icon to appear.

I'm having trouble with my PC not recognizing my phone at all. It says USB device not recognized. I'm on Windows 7 64bit if that matters.

Most likely it's because you don't have the right drivers installed. Try installing these http://g2-lg.com/download-lg-g2-android-usb-drivers-ver-3-10/.

The drivers aren't working for me so i will link where you can get the drivers from the actual website. Please note: this link is for Tmobile D801 but you can search for your device on there.

LG's website has drivers for D800 and D801. I'm looking for D802 drivers. Where can I find them or which are compatible?
The Universal device drivers aren't universal?

Where can I find Universal drivers? Not on LGs website.
I installed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875
And after that it worked fine. I have a ls980, so the att and t-mobile don't work for me. This did.
This took me a while to sort out. There is a certain driver package for the verizon phone. The drivers listed here dont seem to work for me. I'm using win 7. Here is what I needed to use, then everything just came together - LG VZW_United_WHQL_v2.11.1
These can be downloaded at LG's site. Make sure you search for drivers pertaining to the model number of your phone.
Hope this helps someone

You must have the sdk with adb installed before you do that part. Browse to that directory, find adb, shift right click, open command prompt here. Then do 'adb devices'. You'll see serial # on left and 'device' on right. It's working then. If you get 'offline' on right, you need to update your adb.

LG Drivers failing to install
I Install LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN310AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.10.1.exe from LG website, it installs and I get a "successful" message from the software package. However, shortly after windows pops up a bubble with "not successful". Details:
Uninedntified Device - No Driver Found
Creative Game Port - Failed
Plug in phone and select “PC Software”, since none of the other options make any sense (USB charge, Media Transfer, Tethering, and Picture Transfer). Sidebar: None of the other options seem to change anything even when tried. "Media Transfer" is the only one that seems to actually install something successfully, but nothing changes with the device list. Back on track: Get a new windows “installing” bubble. Shortly after I get another “not successful” message with the following:
MTP USB Device – Failed
I go to Devices and Printers, select the phone, and look in the properties. Click “update driver” and pick the LG folder in Program Files. It says “driver already installed”.
Rebooting the computer accomplishes nothing.
I’ve tried several full uninstalls.
No matter what I try, if I run “adb devices”, I get “List of Devices Attached” then my prompt back, meaning none found I assume.
Yes I have turned on dev mode on the phone and I get the debugging icon when the USB cable is plugged in. I’m on Win7 64. WTF is wrong with this driver?
Thanks for any help you can give!
Uncheck usb debug? Had this on my htc one x. Maybe helps
