Are you on Win8 by chance? Use airdroid or something similar for files that arent huge. There's another thread about this somewhere, basically MTP+Win8=sad face
I am on Windows 7 in both cases
Thanks for the hint, might be the same issue for me as well

I've had this happen on a few occasions where I copy a very large amount of files at a time. I usually will split up the amount of files I transfer now and don't have the problem any longer.

Use adb and see if anything changes.

Just wanted to thank everyone. It's not perfect but it is copying with out crashing every single time. Did the and drivers and an process crashed. So it's the phone. But uninstalling and and reverting back to MTP worked. Crashes on big files but rarely do I can live with it.

I have the same problem with my Nexus 4. Is there any way to fix it? how should i fix my mtp?
I've noticed it does freeze when transferring big files from my windows 7 pc to my phone. all you have to do is wait it out. it will transfer. i had to wait like 2 mins for it to kick in.

I'm getting a replacement on my nexus 7, I was wondering how to restore what I had to my new replacement new. Such as game data and such. Is the only way if I rooted it?

No worries buddy. It automatically restores through your email. When you start up the N7 enter in the same one you did with your previous Nexus. :thumbup:

Really? It'll remember where I left off on games too? I had a galaxy s2 and got a replacement, but lost all my data.
You will probably need to root and then use a backup program like titanium to backup from the old device, save the backup files to an external location, then restore to your new device. Of course rooting the new device too.

Titanium backup + a box or dropbox account will become your best friend.

eh. I have a mac with me though for the next month or so.. Won't rooting now, erase my data anyways?
I think it's an ICS thing. I'm not too sure about the data, but your apps are ok. I know they're backed up by Google. As for the data, I'm rooted. So...
What you can do is copy your data folder on your phone. You can actually see the file when you connect to your computer, and then just manually start copying your app data. LoL!! I can only imagine how impractical that is.
I am trying to connect my phone to my PC but they won't communicate. tried to go to recovery 6.0.1.9 but I still mount storage didn't work for me.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Already installed drivers for the N4? Using correct data cable?
Even tried wireless solutions as air droid?
But before you do all these things, is your N4 visible in your pc- explorer?
For further questions just contact me. I'm willing to support you.
Try rebooting. That's what fixed it for me lol. You could also try changing USB Storage mode to PTP or MTP from whatever it's on now.

I use FolderSync. I have it scheduled to automatically back up anything I care about every night at 2am. It just happens and I don't even have to think about it. AirDroid also works fine.

That sounds awesome! but I guess you have to leave your computer ON all night, ain't that right?
I just use ES File Explorer and just transfer them to my Windows shared folder on my network. I rarely use USB cables to transfer files at home unless they're massive.

I connect mine all the time to my windows 7 PC. You have to remember that it connects as an MTP device so it doesn't get assigned a drive letter but it should show up as a device that you can explore.
I use Windows 8 and I use the USB to transfere files between the SD Card and the Laptop.
Connect your phone up to pc while booted into android. Now check your PC's device manager for a failed mtp entry.
If you find one I'll tell you how to fix it.
Hey guys,
Not that it is a real problem, but I was wondering why my device manager shows 5 USB devices for my Nexus 4, 3 times ADB and 2 times bootloader. Any idea why?
Thanks in advance
It this really that strange that no one knows why it's caused ?

I've never seen that before. Uninstall all your drivers and start over?
Maybe because I installed it using a toolkit? Anyhow, I'll try installing them again
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Well, I investigated the issue a little and found out there where even six devices: 2 bootloader and 2 ADB devices which were always visible but "couldn't be started" and one bootloader and one ADB device, from which one is active when the mode is activated. I deleted the 4 devices and everything still functions well.
Do you have a Linux box anywhere near you? If you do, type "lsusb" into terminal with the phone plugged in. Windows is retarded.
I do have a dual boot with Ubuntu 12.04, but what will that command actually do?

Hi there
I just bought a Nexus 4
And I was reading that OTG cable is not Supported -_-
16(12)GB is not enogh for me
Does any one know any Idea? that can help me get more space?
I don't want powerd hub. I need something Small fits into my pockets?
Is there any Small Wiless hdd or something like that?
Please hep!
Well, you either buy the rumored 32 GB Nexus that is supposed to come out next month, maybe, or you could use cloud storage for your stuff, like dropbox.
you could also check this out. works for the galaxy nexus, nexus 7, and nexus 10, so I'm sure it'll work for the nexus 4 as well

the micro SD kickstarter you just linked is a small OTG device. Meaning it won't work with our nexus 4

Again not feasible as it would not have any power required.
Those cards are designed for the likes of cameras where you don't have to plug into your PC to transfer files off it. As there is no SD slot on the nexus 4. You would require another device with an SD slot to power it

For some reason my Nexus 7 is strangely slow lately idk why, but I want to know if anyone else has seen there Nexus 7 lagging? And if anyone knows how to speed it up? Posting screen shot of my system info.

Exactly the same here. Typing's hard work, and tapping icons or buttons can take a couple of tries before it registers. All updated and tried a reboot.
You should upgade to 4.2.2, make full wipe and start from scratch. Then you will see if lag is still there.
