[Q] ADB but no internal storage acess - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys i have queston i have a nexus 4 for a couple months now and i just got a nexus 7 and when i plugged it in my little brother pulled it out when windows was installing it by itself now ive got adb but no acess to internal storage
Windows 8 build
n4 on custom 4.2.2
n7 on 4.4 stock

uninstall al nexus/adb/google/fastboot/mako(also delete them) related drivers.turn off driver signature verification(google it),restart pc and install universal naked drivers

install usb driver from android sdk website http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html or you just can update via SDK Manager if you have it. Then go to Device Manager on your pc, search for ADB interface or any yellow sign (caution),and search for update by using the downloaded file. Hope this help

[Q] Drivers not found / fastboot does not work

Hi, I got my Nexus 7 HSDPA yesterday. I had the Nexus 7 16GB before and had no problems rooting it but now I am stuck.
My Google USB Drivers are up-to-date (Rev. 7), I updated them this morning via SDK-Manager. However, still no drivers are found.I also tried Universal Naked Drivers 0.7, those worked on adb (could push a file), but "fastboot devices" still doesn't find any devices.
I am on Windows 7 64bit (however, the SDK is in Program Files (x86), don't know if that is normal.) My Build Number is JOP40C
Any idea?
Adb and Fastboot are in different folders, one is in 'Tools' and the other is in 'Platform-Tools' try moving the exe files both into the same place as Adb.exe.
Not 100% but sure that's got something to do with it.

[Q] Nexus 4 ADB on Windows 7 Home

After several hours of frustration, I'm just going to ask.
I have USB debugging enabled. When I plug in the Nexus 4 Windows auto installs drivers for MTP.
It's listed under portable devices in device manager. I am trying to uninstall the driver and install the Naked driver. But as soon as I uninstall in device manager, Windows reinstalls, despite me having turned off auto-installation of drivers. I am not able to use the advanced method listed here http://www.addictivetips.com/window...utomatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista because gpedit.msc doesn't exist for Home users.
I have unplugged the device and manually put it into Fastboot and plugged it in. Windows does not try to autoinstall drivers. I am able to install Naked drivers and the device appears as "Android Phone" in device manager.
How can I proceed?

Try checking the drivers thread link in my signature.

The problem is that Windows is auto-installing the driver as soon as I uninstall it from device manager. I have this setting disabled in Device Installation Settings but nevertheless it continues auto-installing.

When you plug in your n4 in your pc, does it allow you to open the folder for your phone. If it does the drivers are installed. Mine n4 did the same as you when I plugged it in my PC, and did show Android in the device manager.
Use the nexus 4 toolkit to do it.

It's showing up as portable device, not as Android when MTP is connected. If I manually boot into fastboot, and connect to PC it will show as Android.
Nexus 4 toolkit doesn't work. When I connect the device, it still only shows up as MTP device connected.
How can I stop the "Nexus 4" driver from auto installing the MTP driver?
Nobody else is having this problem?

You could try this installer. If a prompt ever says not to install a driver just do it anyway.

I was having the same issues, toolkit didnt work, auto kept auto installing MTP only, junefabrics.com didn't work by itself, LG drivers didn't work. finally I tried the drivers in sig and adb was installed but the tool kit still didn't recognize it. I ran the one from junefabrics.com after that and hit no to not reinstall the drivers when it asks, but it's hanging when installing pdanet on my phone.

im in the same boat
I'm having these same issues. Very frustrating.
Just fixed the problem by following the directions in this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34154052&postcount=7
His instructions about cmd prompt didn't work for me, so in device manager I selected View -> Show Hidden Devices.
I removed all android, nexus, other android phones and then reinstalled the drivers via the toolkit. Seems to be working so far!
The MTP driver will always install as that's nothing to do with adb. If you open Device Manager it should have the other option - you then manually install the driver by browsing the the drivers folder when using the 'Update driver' option in the right-click menu when you click on it in Device Manager

tried pda but failed
its caused by the android 4.2.2 update...
For anyone still having problems, these are the steps I followed that fixed it for me. (After updating to the latest sdk version and downloading the google usb driver)
1. Uninstalled the driver from Device Manager
2. Let it automatically install the generic 'MTP device driver'
3. Right clicked on the new device and selected 'Update Driver'
4. Selected 'Have Disk' and pointed it to [android-sdk-dir]\extras\google
5. Watched an 'ADB' driver install.
6. Opened Eclipse to successfully run on my N4.

Cable problems maybe??
Mine was like that if the USB Debugging was enabled on stock.
I also had to use this driver

Thanks Guys,

I have installed the drivers but no luck. abd can access the tablet in recovery but not when the system is up.
Nothing shows up when the SYSTEM is up...Not the storage or USB debugging.
Anyone else seen this?
You have the proper drivers installed for when in recovery but the wrong ones for when in os, uninstall these and get the appropriate ones

Did you download drivers from SDK tools or root toolkits?

[Q] Nexus 10 Not Recognized in Windows 7

Hi all,
I bought a Nexus 10 recently and updated it to kitkat 4.42. I wanted to root it, so I downloaded the latest NRT and proceeded to follow the instructions. This started out with uninstall previous drivers, lunching USBDeview and uninstalling everything related to the Android.
BUT, when I plug my nexus 10 into my PC with windows 7, I get the message, driver installation unsuccessful. It doesn't show up as storage either. However, it does charge and it does say"connected as media device" on the nexus. I tried switching from MTP to PTP and back, but no go.
So I plugged it into my windows 8 laptop and it DOES appear as storage on it and works fine. It makes it sound like its an issue with my PC or windows 7.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm only on my laptop when I work so its quite annoying to have to only transfer files from there.
Thanks in advance!
Download the android sdk. This contains thr drivers. Then install the drivers manually.
