Hey Guys,
Been following threads here for a while; Actually was able to flash my phone to the new froyo that was developed through this forum onto my phone- It's been a great help!
As everyone knows, they finally released the update for our phones. I would like to put mine back to stock and then do the update through Verizon. I am running into a problem though..
I have downloaded the SamsungDriver.exe file and installed it, but when I plug in my phone via USB, my computer does not recognize it, only charges it. Ideas? I am running Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks in advance!

You need drivers specifically for our phone. Where did you get the ones you are attempting to use?
Also, check your usb settings, and make sure you are not set to charge only. Finally, check usb debugging in /settings/applications/development. I have a tutorial I made up for flashing to 09 with all the files you need here in the general section. See if it helps any.

Ok, so I have downloaded the new driver that you said to, but when I plug the phone into my computer, I still only get a charging response from my phone, no new device detection.. Hmm?

I know with my phone I have to reinstall drivers everytime after I plug my phone into computer, never recognize automatically, try plugging phone into computer then install drivers, see if that works.

Drivers
I would try getting them from the official samsung site thats where I got my drivers and they seem to work all the time my phone is always detected in odin.
You can get them right here:

First, lets make sure you have the drivers you need.
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I400ZKAVZW
That is the link to the driver download page at samsung, for our phone. Go down to the bottom, and click on drivers, then download the one that pops up. There is only one set. If these are the drivers you have, then lets make sure of the rest
1. Your phone is set to mass storage, or ask on connection (settings/usb)
2. (and you'll have to do this, anyway, after you check your usb settings) make sure debugging mode is checked (settings/applications/development).
3. Try a different usb port
4. check your cord
Also, when you first plug your phone in, after installing the drivers, give it a few minutes. Both when you are fully booted, and when you are in download mode. If you get a pop up saying 'installing device software' wait a few. When it says 'drivers successfully installed', or 'your device is ready to use' then you are good. But, it will take a minute or so to install.
If none of this works, let me know. Chances are you may have a bad cord. Especially if you are like me, and plug and unplug your phone several times throughout the day.
Hi guys,
after unocking bootloader and so on, i cannot connect the n4 as a media device. camera (ptp) and debugging works, but not mtp.
already wiped everything
someone can help me?
I had the same problem. Had to remove the Google drivers I installed to get fastboot (do this via device manager, make sure to tick the box to delete the driver files as well else it will just reinstall them)
1.Delete the Device from device manager.
2. Grab the naked drivers in teh dev forum and install them.
3.???
4.Profit
i don't think it's a driver problem, i have the same issue on both w8 and ubuntu
someone else wanna try?
If you turn off USB debugging, media device mode works.

Hi, been lurking around here for a good while now....fantastic website website and I've learned so much but now I have an issue.
For what ever reason my nexus 7 will not boot, I can get into fastboot and have been following the guides to do a full factory restore through fastboot. Everything goes fine until is comes to "Sending System" then just.....stops. I have used the nexus toolkit and also the official sdk drivers and fastboot contained there. I only have an old laptop as my main pc for some reason does not recognise the nexus.
I have tried alternative USB cable too.
Does anyone have any other advice.
Also the device is complete stock no custom rom has been installed so no custom recovery available.
I really appreciate any help.
Cheers!
Okay well ive managed to get it back alive!
used a new laptop and usb cable and it all seems to be fine now!
Now back to my original issue...windows 8 is pissing me around and wont recognise the bloody thing!
Any ideas?
Try a search, shouldn't be hard to find what others have done with Windows 8 difficulties...

Go to Device Manager, show hidden devices and uninstall any Android or ADB related devices that you have. Disable USB debugging on your Nexus, then plug it into your PC and see if it's recognized. If it is, then re- enable USB debugging, then go to Device Manager and reinstall the Google USB drivers to get ADB support back.
Thanks for the advice, first thing I did was try searching....I have tried countless methods suggested but nothing works its like windows cant find the drivers. In the device manger its recognised but no diver installs no matter what I do. If I force the manual driver install it fails!? I have tried the Naked drivers, the SDK even making sure the media components of windows are installed properly
Hey guys ,let's get straight. I'm totally dumb.
After flashing Lollipop factory img which reseted my internal storage (made a backup on PC), today I decided to try AOSP. Downloaded with my phone, flashed it. But the file was corrupted (bad download or something). Results : I only had that rom on my internal storage, my phone won't boot. I thought I could use NRT, although it as always worked fine, now it keeps telling me "adb device not found", "no fastboot devices". So, actually I can't do anything and I can't see what can I do.. already tried reinstalling drivers, but windows isn't even showing my nexus 4 on device manager
Looks like I need help, and sleep too..

Hmm can you get at least to the bootloader menu. If you can, there's still hope. At this time, you're better off using the manual commands rather than the NRT (the NRT use a set of pre-configured scripts and doesn't always end up where you would like to) Have you tried to also plug your device inside another USB port?

Yes I can acces to bootloader and TRWP. Tried another USB port, another USB cable, using manual commands it says " <waiting for device>" and nothing happen..
What drivers are you using. I use the Google usb driver available here
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
How to install these drivers here
http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html#InstallingDriver
You also need the android platform tools installed on your pc for adb and fast boot commands to work. I use this installer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Make sure you have completed these steps on your PC before you connect it to your nexus.

Thanks buddy , but my drivers were fine before all this. And now i can't reinstall it that way since my nexus isn't even showing up on device manager, I used another method from NRT. Gonna test on w7..
EDIT: Problem solved using windows 7. There seems to have problem with drivers on windows 8.1
Yes, in windows 8 you need to disable driver signature enforcement. In windows 7 no problem.

Ok, so i managed to brick my nexus 6p, it will not boot into android, stupid as i am i do not have a backup on the phone, and on top of that, windows does not recognise my device in bootloader mode. Of course i have tried installing USB drivers, but strangely my computer will not even recognise that im plugging in a USB device, i/e it wont even make the USB connected sound.
Not really sure what to do, but im hoping anyone could maybe help me out, thanks!

How did you brick it? What drivers are you using?

I tried to install franco kernel on my chroma rom, and it just wouldn't boot.
Also, I am using the drivers installed by the unified android toolkit.

Do you still have the Chroma zip on your phone? I'm guessing not, but if you do just flash that. You could try uninstalling the drivers that you currently have and installing the drivers from the Android SDK. I have a link to the SDK download page and instructions on how to install it in my guide. Otherwise, do you have access to a Linux machine? No drivers required for Linux, you just need to install the Android SDK and adb and fastboot should work out of the box so to speak. Or if you don't have access to a Linux machine you could even create a bootable Linux usb and do it that way.

I just came back home from buying a new USB cable, and apparently it was just my cable (original 6p cable) that wasnt working... Terribly sorry for wasting your time, i appreciate it though!
