Please help if you can
My first 32gb Nexus 7 had no problems showing up as an mtp device on windows 7.
Am running a rooted 4.1.2 and all is well with mtp as well as adb, toolkits, etc.
I purchased one more as a gift, and that one can only be set to ptp in the internal storage settings.
If I try to set it to mtp, it takes, but does not show up in windows or in adb.
The only way to see it or use adb or a toolkit on it, is to set it to ptp which shows up as a camera with read only permissions.
Both tablets are using the same rom etc.
Have tried this on 2 PC's (win 7 as well as xp)
Any Ideas?
Thanks
On my (rooted) Stock 4.2.1 tablet, MTP mode only seems to show up if ADB Debugging is enabled.
Sort of odd; PTP will work whether or not ADB Debugging is turned on, but MTP only shows up when ADB debugging is also enabled.
If you have not enabled "Developer Options" on the tablet, go to
Settings->About tablet
and tap on the last entry ("Build number") 6 or 7 times in succession. This will allow the following menu item to appear under settings:
Settings-> {} Developer options
You can enable ADB debugging from there.
The PTP/MTP toggle control is at
Settings -> Storage -> Menu (top RH corner) -> USB Computer connection
good luck

Thanks, but I guess I was not very clear.
ADB Debugging is turned on but only works in PTP mode.
MTP does not work at all, even though it's checked.

Even after reading this and your 1st post, I am still a little uncertain.
I *think* you are saying that you want to get MTP working on the second unit. And I *think* you are also saying that (additionally) ADB only seems to work when you have PTP mode selected.
Reading between the lines - are you testing things with the same computer for both tablets? (Or, another way to put that, if the answer to this previous question is no, do you see any "Unknown Device" messages in the Device Manager when you toggle things around?)
I fooled around with mine not more than 30 minutes ago. Leaving it plugged into the PC the entire time (Win 7 Pro x64), I could toggle USB Debugging on/off and back and forth between PTP/MTP. Although I didn't actually try a live ADB session in both MTP/PTP modes, the file browser thing would pop up for PTP mode no matter what I had ADB debugging set to, and for MTP mode that would only happen if I had ADB debugging enabled. At no time did I see any unrecognized devices in the Device Manager.
And I think that what I just said above doesn't help you.... arghh.

First of all thanks for the interest.
Bottom line is as follows.
MTP mode does not work period.
However....
when I boot into recovery, (TWRP) the pc sees the usb connection, and I can use adb commands.
So it leads me to conclude that there is something off in the System files. But (and it's driving me nuts)
they are a clone of the first (MTP functioning) Nexus 7.
Thanks again
@OP
You can uninstall the drivers(all of the n7 drivers), then unplug, then replug it in, then let it install its drivers again. This solved the mtp issues other users had.

I'm running Windows 7 64bit and followed the Ultimate guide to unlock and root my Nexus 4.
Everything went well but now it looks like that Windows won't recognize my phone as a device. When I plug in the phone, the auto-play window will pop out and recognize it as Nexus 4, but there is no other options. (Normally the auto-play will ask if open folder to view files or transfer photos). I can't see my phone in device manager either.
If I turn on the USB debugging mode, I can see it in device manager but still cannot see it in My Computer. Looks like Windows can't access the SD card at all.
I tried switching to the camera mode but the problem remained. Please help.
desperate bump. can anyone help?
Maybe it's a stupid advice, but have you tried change the USB port in PC?

thanks for your advice. the problem is that, without USB debugging mode on, I can't see Nexus 4 in Device manager, even though the Windows Auto-play will say Nexus 4 connected. (Nothing in My Computer either)
With USB debugging mode on, I uninstalled the driver and Windows would try installing the driver. Now it shows up as MTP device with an exclamation mark. I tried manually update the driver (direct it to the Google SDK folder and pick the android_windowsusb.inf) but it says it does not support x64. I don't think the 64 bit driver is digitally signed.
I think I had a similar problem as yours. If you deleted the drivers while on debugging mode and reconnected after and it's showing the exclamation mark of a unknown device, try restarting your computer and plugging your phone back in.

i did and it remains the same.
Is there anyway I can know all the files names of the drivers so that I can manually delete them from system folder? When I uninstalled it from the device manager, I don't see the option "Delete the driver software for this device".
I can still see it under "adb devices" list.
I think there are some conflicts in the drivers.
Now when I connect Nexus 4 (without USB debugging mode on), it will show up in device manager under Android Device.
With USB debugging, it will then show up under Portable Devices.
However, it's supposed to work the other way around. that is (no USB debugging --> portable device; with USB debugging --> Android Device).
How can i solve this?
Have you tried manually installing the drivers before plugging in the phone, vs letting windows choose the drivers it wants to install? One option you could try is installing PDA Net on your pc. It will install reliable drivers on your pc.
i also had this same problem after flashing my first custom rom on the n4, and i also run windows 7 Ultimate x64
here is the process i use for full clean installation of device
on phone
goto SETTINGS > STORAGE > (menu) USB Computer Connection
make sure Media Device (MTP) is checked
With USB Debugging On
On your PC go to device manager
there should be 2 devices (Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface & Portable Devices > Nexus 4) - this is on a fully working n4 so you might only have 1 of them
Right click on each of them and click uninstall
The popup box should have another check box to delete the driver also, if this is available check it then confirm (note mine only has the box for Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface, but if yours has it on both then check it on both)
your computer will now ask you to restart, dont do it yet
repeat previous step for the other device if you have 2 then reboot
upon rebooting it will automatically start reinstalling drivers
by expanding the selection you should see 2 devices
Nexus 4 - Successful - Ready To Use (this is your MTP connection)
Nexus 4 - Unsuccessful - No Driver Found (this is your ADB Connection)
at this point you should be able to access internal storage however ADB will not work
go back into device manager
you should now have
Portable Devices > Nexus 4
and Other Devices > Nexus 4 (with yellow exclamation mark)
right click on the Other Devices > Nexus 4 (with yellow exclamation mark)
hit Update Driver Software
click Browse my computer for driver software
click Let Me Pick Drom a List of Device Drivers On My Computer
double click Show All Devices
click Have Disk...
click Browse
navigate to the download directory for the google usb drivers (for me this was "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\Android-SDK\Extras\Google\Usb_Driver")
double click on the android_winusb.inf file
click OK
double click "Android Composite ADB Interface"
it will then install the driver for ADB
you should now have full access to internal storage and ADB

thank you for your long and detailed reply.
this is what i wanted to do, but the problem is that when I uninstall them, I don't get to see the option "delete the driver software for this device". What should I? cuz every time I plug in Windosws just tries to automatically install the driver for me.
Have you tried toggling to ptp mode then back to mtp on your phone. It's odd indeed.
The fact that you can't remove the driver is because that is the mtp one which is built in to media player. Let me give this some more thought
EDIT: You said that with USB debugging disabled your device is listed under device manager as an android device
can you check and verify exactly what it is listed as? as it should be portable device

does adb work?
i.e. adb devices
or is USB debugging turned off at this point
Also. The one with the exclamation mark. Right click and go to properties. What does it say in device status

hi, adb devices works. (will list my device when usb debugging is on)
with usb debugging off, under portable device, the device status says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)". thanks.
still looking for solutions. maybe i should try uninstalling the ADB driver, but the problem is that when i uninstall the device from the device manager I don't see the option "delete the driver software for this device", any help?

I have this same issue I'm trying to find a fix, that's how I found your thread. Alex gave very good info make sure you go back to his posts and hit his "Thanks" button, I did it on everyone one of his posts in this thread. I'm starting to think it's a hardware issue and not a software issue, I've never had this issue on any device. When I got it new running stock 4.2.2 MTP didn't work. ADB works and PTP works, just not MTP no matter what I try. I recommend you learn to use, ADB push and pull to move your files if you don't already know how to use it (To use ADB I need to check PTP for it to work and not MTP) you might need to do the same. I will keep you posted if I find a fix.

I'm just getting more and more confused with this.
If Adb works then you must have an Adb driver installed for the phone. However your also stating that you get no box for uninstall driver.
With USB debugging disabled you said that it appears as an android phone rather than a portable device. This should not be.
With debugging disabled what happens if you Try to uninstall in device manager

My theory still stands that you have updated the mtp driver with adb drivers. Hence why mtp doesn't work but ptp does.
The problem is getting to a position where you can uninstall the adb drivers from the mtp device and let it reinstall the proper drivers

I plugged another Nexus 4 in, and all the drivers loaded perfectly. I then tried my Nexus 4 phone, and nothing happens. No mtp, no adb, no boot loader drivers. Its my phone. My next step is to find a zip file that I can flash via custom recovery, which will bring all the binaries and ROM back to stock. Anybody know where I can find this? I'll probably lose the custom recovery, but hopefully it will be fixed and I can flash the custom recovery again.

After the upgrade, all drivers are wiped. Hooking up N7 to cpu triggers an auto setup that does not work correctly. In device manager what shows is and android device with an adb composite interface driver, but no actual N7...its hidden. This is how I got it to work:
I had already reinstalled SDK/platform tools/etc (if you haven't done this, just download the google drivers themselves from google). Connect device with debugging enabled and allow the auto setup. Turn off debugging, and again allow the auto set up. On my computer, both with debugging on/off the N7 did not show up in the devices list. While debugging is off, open the control panel, go to hardware+sound/view devices. Here the N7 will show. Right click it/properties/hardware/click the driver/properties/change settings/driver/change settings/update driver/manually search/choose MTP. Reboot, enable debugging/hook up/right click start/device manager/android/android adb composite driver/right click/update driver/manual search/type in path to the google drivers/install.
After that your N7 will read in the device list as an N7, files will show in the file manager (MTP), and ADB will work....

You're so full of ****. Giving creedence to this crap through ignorance. Shame on you.
I have my sg4 plugged into my laptop, but it is not showing up in the android debug monitor. I ran it as administrator, and the device does show up in my computer.
Do you have debugging enabled in Developer options? Make sure you have the right drivers installed otherwise you may need a reboot on both devices
I have the Nexus 7 drivers installed, and the adb interface.
and I do have debugging enabled.
I think that you need the Samsung drivers. The Nexus 7 drivers are different ones. So download them here: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads
They should also be installed if you install Kies.

There is a well-hidden menu that you may need to access.
Assuming you have developer mode enabled...
- Go to Settings, then Storage
- Click on the menu (top right)
- Select USB computer connection
You'll see 2 boxes:
- Tick 'media device'
I found that if neither box was ticked, I couldn't see my device...
Maybe the first time the dialog says "Allow this computer debugging" appears, you clicked NO.
Try go to Developer options and click "Revoke USB debugging authorizations", and reconnect the device.
Hello there!
Yesterday I updated my N10 to 4.4.2 and had to endure an ordeal just in order to get ADB working (please note that this happened both in 4.3 and 4.4.2).
Below you'll find a comprehensive list of all the settings combinations I tried in the N10 until I found one that got ADB working.
However, there's NO combination in which MTP works, at least for me.
Windows 7 x64 (N), with Media Pack installed. Rebooted serveral times.
Drivers installed using option #1 in Nexus Root Toolkit. Fastboot drivers work ok.
Any idea on how to get MTP working? Thanks in advance.
000. USB debugging off, MTP off, PTP off.

Edit: OK, after using method #3 in the Nexus Root Toolkit I now have ADB working also in the 100 configuration. No dice on the MTP file transfer, 'though.
Go to device manager and select "show hidden devices". Then delete everything that has to do with tour Nexus 10. This will also delete your adb drivers. Then plug it in the computer with a different cable. Or search the internet for drivers.. Toolkits arent fail proof.. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem (Windows 10), and after having tried a lot of different suggested solutions, I did what mrgnex recommended, and it worked! Thank you so much!
I have the Motorola drivers already installed and USB debugging ON. But when I connect the phone to the computer the internal storage does not show on the computer. I have to go back to the Developer Options switch the USB config from MTP to PTP and back to MTP to see the internal storage. Just an annoying extra step.
Is there a permanent fix to this? The phone is rooted.
ROM?
Your settings in Developer Options are not relevant. When you connect it to the PC, pull down the notification shade and find the entry that says USB Charging and tap it, then select MTP mode, it should appear in My Computer after that if it doesn't open automatically.
