[Q] My computer won't properly recognize Note 3 in recovery - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I rooted my Note 3, installed recovery, wiped everything and as I was about to copy Echo ROM to the phone I noticed that Windows won't recognize it anymore.
I tried 2 machines with Windows 7 and 8. Same issue on both. It finds something called "cd device" but won't let me access it so I can copy the rom to it.
When I try to mount USB storage in recovery it just jumps to the top of the list.
Windows fails to install something called "MTP USB Device".
This is really frustrating. I've had almost the same problem on my Desire HD and One x (except there recovery wouldn't recognize it at all).
Any way to fix this?

Have you tried kies should work

sounds like a driver issue...do you have drivers installed? if nothing works you will most likely have to odin back to stock...

I tried Kies and it was to no use.
So I took another approach. I used sideload to send and install the rom.
However the phone now just keeps restarting itself.
This issue must be my curse. It's really stupid and frustrating to have it appear on 3rd phone in a row.

reboot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset and then reboot...if the rom was flashed correctly then you should get out of the bootloop

Tried that and it's till looping.
I did get some verification error. And the rom installation took only like 15 seconds. So it's probably failing somewhere. I'll try some other roms and see if I get the same error.

So I installed TWRP and still, same problem.
Except this one keeps "starting ADB sideload feature" forever.
This is really pissing me off.

So I went back to CWM recovery and went sideload with slim Echoe rom and it finally worked.
But I still don't know why I can't mount USB and also why I get error while trying to sideload files over 1gb.

[Q]Bricked Nexus 7 not recognized on windows Please Help

Hi My nexus 7 was working fine I had a custom rom (paranoidandroid ) tried to upgrade to the latest release and now stays stuck at jelly bean splash screen

nexus root kit uninstalled reinstalled tried to connect in fastboot mode nothing

The only way I see out is if maybe I can connect through linux but not sure how to I do have a laptop running backtrack I could use
Wrong forum for this but:
Sounds like you tried to install on top of the existing ROM without wiping.
Can you get into fastboot? if so open a command prompt from the folder you have fastboot.exe installed and type "fastboot devices". do you see your serial number? If so you're fine! Flash a custom recovery you can easily wipe/reset and wipe dalvik cache and install a new ROM.

I can get into fastboot and it doesnt recognize it ive tried everything different cables etc
also i was upgrading from 1.9.2 to 1.9.5 so a full wipe was not required
My main problem is i cant connect cant list devices
so if you're in fastboot mode and you type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" nothing happens?
I don't see how installing a ROM would cause these problems.

Put your device in fastboot mode. Do not connect it yet.
Run wugz 1.5.2 (that's the latest I think) and press the "Full Driver Installation guide".
Check the instructions to remove your current drivers. Remove them.
connect your device
Reinstall the drivers manually (not via the toolkit). Use the naked drivers from here.
Download the factory image from here and flash it via the toolkit.
root it, flash cwm do whatever you want to do :silly:
profit
Wont respond or recognize it

You need to install the drivers. Do you know how to get into your device manager in windows and install drivers for devices connected? You need to dl th wugz that regunus told you about above. After installing you can tell your computer to search in that folder to install drivers. When you open your device manager do you see anything yellow with a question mark. Once you have the drivers installed correctly then follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1781250 and you will be golden. Been through this a couple times already
Also when you try to manually install drivers for the devices that are not recognized in the device manager make sure to guide the driver install wizzard in the folder Universal_Naked_Driver_0.7 (or wherever you unzipped your drivers) and NOT in a specific directory like "amd64" or "i386".
If all drivers are succesfully installed, your computer will see the device in fastboot mode and your problems are gone ^_^

You can install the toolkit from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1809195 then use it to install the drivers, then install temp cwm, then reboot into recovery, do a full wipe and try to install 1.95 again. You can use the toolkit to install a rom as well if you download it to your computer. Hope it helps.You always have to wipe cache and dalvic cache when flashing any rom. No wipe means you don't need to do a data/factory reset.

dude, forget the ebay! Your device is ok!
Check the Device Manager in the control panel to make sure all the drivers have been installed correctly. After that we'll see

Regunus tried no avail.
I reformatted my laptop dual boot windows 7 32 bit.
Tried all previous suggestions its not recognized, me and Regunus came to the conclusion that the port can't be bad Cuz it charges yet it does not recognize it.
I just finished installing adb fastboot on ubuntu if I go to terminal and list devices nothing if I connect my Galaxy sIII it shows up so again not being recognized while other devices do.
Current state :
Fastboot start goes to paranoid android jelly bean splash
And hangs
Fastboot recovery stays stuck at Google screen
I have reciept and all to bad I can't return may just post on ebay
Same Issue
I'm having the same problem, was this ever resolved?
Edit: I was having the same problem. Downloaded 'Nexus 7 Toolkit' and ran the 'install driver' option again (option 1). Device was recognized again.
No such thing as no way out. Keep find a way to connect and you're all set. Have you tried force reboot to fastboot and then enter recovery? I have similar problem once with my nexus s and i finally find a way after 10 hours of constant googling
I've tried nexus 7 toolkit
I reboot into fastboot mode and select recovery and it goes to Google and hangs I've tried on different post nothing at all

When it was recognized what state was it in?

Need Help Unbricking Nexus 7

The problem is I can't unbrick and restore my nexus to stock rom.
I can't boot the device and I'm only able to boot to bootloader. However, my computer doesn't recognize the nexus. It keeps saying Window cannot recognize it whenever I plug my tablet to the computer in bootloader. I tried uninstall and reinstall driver several times, but none of them seems to work . ----> That means I can't even use adb to restore the phone simply because my tablet is not recognized in window.
Is there anyway to fix this problem? I really need your helps as soon as possible.
Thank you for reading !
Get to bootloader. Then use Wugs toolkit, open advanced options. On the very left is something like "temp boot to recovery". Once that boots it to recovery, ADB should work. It did for me. I was in some trouble last night and got out by this. If you know how to use adb/fastboot commands, you should be good. And I uninstalled my drivers and when I plugged it in the device automagically reloaded the drivers. But you have to do it a few times. Had to do it in bootloader, recovery, and another point. Anytime it asks to load drivers/etc do it.
I can't boot to recovery through Wug Tool Kit. It keeps saying Fastboot device was not found >"<
By the way, whenever I connnected my device to computer, the bootloader freezes :|
What were you doing before you go into this situation?
I was on Glazed Jelly Bean rom and wanted to go back to stock rom. I used nexus 7 toolkit to do all the work for me. However, there was something wrong like the toolkit didnt extract the stock img right or something like that, my tablet got bootloop, and what happened next was what i had been telling you guys.
Best bet is if somehow you could get into recovery or get adb working. Might want to uninstall drivers and install again and reboot computer. I would suggest using this thread and flash things manually back to stock. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796 but you would need adb working.
When you power off device and use volume and power can you get it to go into boot loader then plugged into computer try to get to recovery or adb.
Consider deleting the drivers from Windows after uninstalling them otherwise Windows may try to be "clever" and reinstall the bad driver when you plug the device in. The Nexus 7 drivers from Asus can be downloaded here and Google's USB drivers are here

try connecting to the usb port at the back of your computer
Paranoid flashed with the bricked kernel did this to me once right after the move to 4.1.2. Even with a full wipe and all the usual safety precautions it just stuck on bootloop forever and wouldn't let me in. I chalked it up as that's what I get for being the guy that's never satisfied with stock. I was unable to get my nexus7 fixed. I sent you a suggestion on pm though.
Never mind everyone. Thank you so much for your help.
I tried install the nexus 7's driver on another computer and it recognized my device in bootloader mode, and restore everything back to stock now. Thank you so much!!!!
Mine did that to the first time I tried. After I got it to work, the permissions were all messed up and I could not get it to download anything off the web and I was getting a playstore error 90% of the time as well. I finally just wiped everything on my tablet, installed the stock rom via N7 toolkit, then reflashed smooth rom, and all is working now. It may have been a bug with the older version of N7 toolkit, as I updated it before I reran everything.

[Q] Device Manager Error 43 + No ROM installed

I'm having one heck of a problem here. So I've got my Nexus 7, on stock Android, but rooted and unlocked.
I wanted to try Paranoid Android, so I installed the TeamWin Recovery using the Nexus Root Toolkit, then flashed the ROM and wiped cache/dalvik. I tried to boot into the new ROM, but it just stayed on the boot animation. So I looked up the issue, and the solution seemed to be return to stock Android, then flash Paranoid Android again.
So I tried to use the 'Flash Stock and unroot functionality' of the Nexus Root Toolkit, which proceeded fine until the copying of 'system' onto the device... This lasted for about an hour without progress, so I decided to try again with a different version of stock Android. This too didn't work.
So then I (foolishly) rebooted the tablet. But when I got back to fast boot, it didn't show up in Windows (on either of the two machines I have here, and with two cables that have both worked previously, in multiple USB ports). The specific error is that it shows up as an unknown device (which is fine) but also in the device manager there is error 43, which states that the USB has malfunctioned so it has stopped.
For that reason, it's impossible for me to connect it to a computer or even re(install) the proper drivers for it. And as it doesn't have a working OS, i can't get to ADB either. So right now I can't think of anything that will work - no fast boot, no recovery, no connection to a PC.
Any ideas?
Really, no ideas? Come on XDA Developers, you're my only hope <3
Hi there!
ive got the same issue and i can tell what is NOT working to fix this problem:
deleting ALL usb drivers from pc and installing adb drivers, windows troubleshoot and nrt
i'm just like confused but i think it's all windows fault, if i could i would trie on linux or any other pc os

[Q] Soft-Bricked Refurbished Stock Nexus 7

I recently bought a refurbished 2012 Nexus 7 on 4.2. The only things that I have done on the phone are entering my Google account details and downloading a single app (papyrus). I then clicked to install the automatically downloaded software update (it downloaded 4.3), and after restarting the tablet was stuck on the Nexus X boot animation forever. Factory reset/cache wipes do not help.
I found drivers for the phone to be recognized while showing the X, and I found drivers for the phone to be recognized after selecting the a "apply update from ADB" option from stock recovery. However Windows does not recognize the phone at all in recovery mode before selecting that option. Nothing changes in the device manager when plugged/unplugged. Windows doesn't attempt to install anything. It's as if I unplugged the cord once it enters recovery from the bootloader. I assume USB debugging is off, because it would be at the default setting. I tried using the Flash Stock + Unroot option in the Nexus Root Toolkit with the Soft-Bricked/Bootloop setting in, but that fails in both normal recovery (with the device unnoticed) and sideload mode. I'm guessing that debugging needs to be on for this?
Does anyone have any suggestions for other things to try? I have no way of knowing what the original owner may or may not have done, and this was the first time that I restarted the device, so I have no way to know if the problem was caused by the OTA or not.
EDIT: It looks like I made the situation worse. I attempted running the Flash Stock + Unroot option from the bootloader. I am not sure what happened, but now the device starts at the Google page with green start in an arrow. I have the bootloader options, and start and recovery options give me a "booting failed" message in the top left and just stay on the google page. Restarting the bootloader gives me the normal bootloader android image and the options have the same effects.
For anyone who runs into this problem, I seem to have at least temporarily solved it.
I followed the advice here to manually flash the factory image. I am now back to where I was when I bought the phone, and I will immediately enable debugging and test it's ability to restart, connect in recovery mode, etc now.
EDIT: It can restart normally (with the unlocked logo), but it is still completely unrecognized in recovery unless I choose the sideload option like before. Should I return the tablet?

Wrong drivers, try other USB ports. Had that happen with another tablet. Only recognized in adb side load with galaxy nexus driver loading, possibly from universal adb drivers... Switched to a port on the other side and correct drivers finally worked.

As far as I know, no. I was never able to get the device is to be detected by my computer while in stock recovery mode, however it was detected after I flashed ClockworkMod Recovery. So I still have no idea what was causing that problem, but it is no longer relevant.

USB Device not recognized on Windows

I have a dilemma. This morning my usb was working fine but I needed to get back to stock and unrooted. I flashed the system.img from the NDR90X factory image and wiped my data (not userdata however because I didn't want to lose everything) the phone booted up just fine and operates fine, other then it doesn't mount on my pc anymore. fastboot and adb do not work for me either. I tried mounting on both windows and linux, I tried using another computer, and I have tried mounting through the recovery. none of these have worked. I cant try going back to complete stock because fastboot is not recognizing the device either. the phone still charges fine with no problems. But I still am getting the feeling that maybe the usb port has malfunction. I was hoping that maybe someone could help me with this problem and reaching a solution. I don't know if I can contact google about this problem because my device cannot be returned to completely stock.
I forgot to mention that after flashing the stock system.img I also flashed TWRP, and since then I am back on a custom rom to see if maybe that would fix my problem. However it still persists.
I have uploaded a picture showing what error message I am getting on windows.
Reinstall the USB drivers

Turns out it was the USB that doesn't work. When I got home I tried another USB that I have and it works fine.
