Hi guys,
I have literally tried everything I could find here. I have tried the Universal drivers, the PDAnet drivers, and the Google drivers, and I have used an installer as well as manually installed the drivers. For the universal and Google drivers, I can get the phone to be recognized by Windows 7 as a Nexus 4, and Windows says the drivers are configured properly. However, the phone doesn't mount and ADB/fastboot still don't connect (and yes, the phone is in USB debugging mode).
After every failed driver I uninstalled the device, removed the Google drivers from USBdeview, and reinstalled the next set of drivers, to no avail. The computer has been restarted many times, no luck. I have tried all three USB ports on my laptop, and I have tried multiple cords, one of which I know for sure works.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT: If you want, I can add a screenshot of my USBDeview entries to see if there are any conflicting drivers/interfaces. My old phone was a Samsung Galaxy S, but I removed as many of those drivers as I could find.
Silly question, but when attempting fastboot, you did reboot into the bootloader? If you use twrp, they have an adb push setting in the advanced tab(?), see if that's recognized at all?

I couldn't use adb or fastboot at all. No adb when the phone is on, no fastboot in the boot loader. I don't have a custom recovery because I can't flash one without fastboot.

I'm also on 64-bit Windows 7, I forgot to mention that. Just tried the Universal Naked Drivers, to no avail.
Did you update adb to the latest version (v1.0.31)? If not, adb won't see the phone

Thanks for the reply. I've been trying to use Minimal ADB and Fastboot so far, since I really don't want to download the SDK. However, I've also tried to use the newest versions of Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit and mskip's toolkit, both of which do not work.
My Windows 7 Pro x64 work PC can see it as can my personal Windows 8 Pro x64 laptop at home - both using the stock Google drivers from the SDK
Remember, also, that when you run 'adb devices' the phone will ask you to allow the PC to connect. If you don't click OK on the phone it will say it's offline

The window never pops up on the phone. ADB list of devices comes up blank. I'll try the SDK later.
Using the SDK and the newest ADB did not help, still the same problem. I'm out of ideas.
EDIT: Attached are two screenshots of the USBDeview program after I've uninstalled all the Google and Android drivers. Is there anything there that looks like it needs to be uninstalled?

Guys I'm at my wits end. I'm about to give up. I'm trying to get adb working on the nook here on my work computer. I can't for the life of me get it to work. I had no problem on my laptop, but then again I think I caught it before windows installed anything.
I've been using "usbdeview" to uninstall rogue drivers, trying to reel in the problem. However every time I go into device manager, it try's to install "Android ADB interface" which I think means its assigning the wrong driver to it. It should be "Android Composite ADB Interface", no? I know thats what it is on my laptop.
Anybody have any last ditch efforts? I should note that adb works perfectly fine on my Aria on this same machine. I love ADB, hate the setup though.
*****EDIT: Working on different usb port*********
You aren't alone, m8.
I used to have no problem with ADB over USB. But after re-formatting my laptop, I just couldn't get it to work, no matter what I did. I gave up
I'd tried wireless ADB, everybody said it's so easy, me? Couldn't ever get it to work. Gave it also.
At least, for now, I wouldn't think I need it.
I'm now convinced its not driver related. There is something holding my computer back from talking to it. But I'm 99% the right drivers are installed. Mounting disks works fine and it identifies like my android phone does, ADB just won't talk to it.
Try unchecking and rechecking Debugging mode...
Tried that many times. Just for fun I ran the easy adb executable on another machine here, THEN plugged in my nook to it. ADB worked perfect. I'm frustrated, but I really want to figure this thing out. (btw, it identifies with the exact same drivers on both machines)
EDIT: Don't know why or how, but for some reason switching usb ports (which I swear I've done before) worked!!!!!!! It now recognizes and can push/pull/install over adb (usb).
WWW.Ubuntu.com
Enough said.
Love me some Ubuntu, but CMD prompt > Terminal every time.
If you don't mind, can you provide the link to where you downloaded the driver?
Thanks
I used the "combo" pack which installed the drivers and a stripped version of ADB to C: (redundant since I already had ADB installed).

I'll give it another try.

I got all those except the Disk drive list above.
I'll give a try and see what happens.
We may need to uninstall some old drivers before we can get it to install the right ones. You on gtalk or msn? I'll help you troubleshoot it the best I can.
Works like charm.
LOL , without this thread, I would (actually I did) abandon installing ADB over USB.
Thanks audio for providing the correct link.
Gotta love this forum.
Today, When I connect my Nexus 4 to my computer it starts to install the drivers.
The driver consist of 3 parts, but the last one, the MTP USB device, fails to install. I tried restarting my pc and also tried alternate drivers for Windows 7 32bit.
Anyone familiar with this problem and/or it's solution?

Download and install these usb drivers from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998650.
edit.. oops, seems i cannot read.
Uninstall the drivers that you have already attempted to install. If you want fastboot/adb, install the usb drivers manually linked 2 posts above me. If you want to simply copy files, make sure you have at least windows media player 11 installed and it will take care of the rest.

Easy way... Turn off USB debugging
Better way... Edit the mtp inf file so it works in USB debugging mode too.. U should find the info with a search.
Edit.. Note..you do need windows media player 11 installed on xp for mtp functionality.

same here. Fix?
does anyone know ?
same here but after searching a while and only be able to connect via MTP I found this not a state of the art solution:
I use to rename the file I want to move/copy/paste from xxxx.zip or whatever in xxxx.jpg, even for roms anf kernel
for example I want to copy stremax.zip in my N4 /sdcard/
on the pc just rename it to stremax.jpg
connect via MTP
copy the renamed file to /sdcard
once disconnected use a file manager to rename it to stremax.zip and move/copy/delete or whatever you want
I know, it's rude, some developer is cursing my name, but it works..
other solution is installing airdroid but you need to be on same wi-fi network
Try manually uninstalling and reinstalling drivers?

Hi,
I had win 8 in which I was successfully able to do everything with my n4 (adb connections were good and so was MPT). I updated to win 8.1 and now it's derping out. ADB drivers seem fine. I tested it by simply running adb shell in cmd prompt, but even though my device is connected, it says that it's unable to find device.
Whats more important to me is that the device is not showing up in my computer. Although windows plays the usual usb connection sound. I'm also able to see it has detected my device as Nexus 4 is under the unknown device category. How can I fix this. I relly need to transfer a few things between the comp and phone, and it kinda sucks at the moment.

Just format it and install Ubuntu!!!
lol, just jocking. if adb is working you don't need it to recognize it. You can just use adb push/adb pull, but anyway.. did u try to enable debugging?
It means something has derped with the mtp driver
Open up device manager
You will see your nexus 4 with a yellow exclamation mark next to it
Right click and update driver
Manually choose
Then you will have to scroll through the list and find the mtp device (I can't remember of the top of my head exactly which headers it is under)

Connect your Nexus 4 in USB debuggin mode and uninstall your current driver in device manager checking the 'delete the driver software' option.
Download Universal Naked Driver: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875
Reboot Windows 8 into advance mode and select to disable driver signature: PC Settings -> Updates and recovery -> Recovery -> Advance startup -> select F7 option at the selection menu when you see it
Reconnect Nexus 4 and install it with UND driver.
Thanks all! I just uninstalled the current drivers and reconnected the device. Windows picked up on the right drivers. All ok!
Right,
I've followed this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622425
Got everything sorted.
I try to install the Acer drivers (official site, other sites.. tried various) and a blank white popup box with 'ok' and 'close' clickable appears when it's on 'installing'. I click ok, and it disappears.
I leave that for a bit, and put it into APX mode, tried the Universal Naked Drivers (Asus Transformer admittedly, but I got desperate!) and no joy when opening APXFlash.
I have installed ADT drivers.
Help!?
It's on an already rooted (was like this when I bought it) ICS (ACER_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1) with bootloader 0.03.12-ICS
My head is against a brick wall here!
Install the drivers manually.
When you click in device manager, don't let it search. Choose have disk. Select the driver manually.
Hope you are not on Win8.
As a last resort (win7 and below) try the Google USB drivers, And select them manually,

Google drivers come in zip format. They should have all necessary drivers.
When you installed your Acer drivers, did you install them with administrator permissions? Yeah, I know, I am the administrator. But sometimes it''s necessary.
(That's why I operate from Ubuntu most of the time)

As the device began to shutdown, SuperSU appeared for a few seconds, then my device switched off. I believe I have bricked my device as it has been stuck on the 'fire' logo for the past 10 minutes. Congrats to me ._.
I tried to install adb and its drivers, however drivers wouldnt install saying 'windows couldnt find any driver software for you device' when i point it to the drivers. Any idea why?

Have I done it right? I hope I've done everything. Also when I open ADB a load of text flashes down the cmd box for about a second then it closes. Ran as administrator and everything. Hoping I can get this fixed by the weekend...
Ok, I think I got it.
Doing adb devices gives me G000HH0454340LB9, I beleive this is the correct device?
Anyways, plan is:
Boot into recovery on device and select apply update from adb
Get the 5.1.1 update (firmware it originally had) and place it in the folder adb installed in.
Do adb sideload (file name)
Wait (maybe grab a cup of coffee?)
Hopefully success, back to stock firmware!
Afterwards ill root with kingroot and then remove using rootjunky supertool.
Ok, this is getting kinda annoying.
Placed the update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720 .bin file in the same folder I have adb installed.
Booted devices into recovery mode, selected apply update from adb
Open adb, do adb sideload update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720
Get error message 'cannot read update-kindle-32.5.4.1_user_541112720'
Have ALL correct drivers and stuff installed @sd_shadow
Can anyone help? I really need this fixing...
