[Q] Need drivers and os install - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last week my nexus 7 asked my permission to download kit kat, I said yes and it crashed and now I only get the google opening page it was rooted by my brother who owned it before me, the tablet is not recognized when I plug it into my computer either, can anyone point me to where I can find the drivers online and the os as well. Thank you in advance.

Install Wug toolkit and install the drivers that way... You can also return to stock via the toolkit.

Nexus 7, Not recognized, cant transfer files, Please help!

hi,
im in need of help, i just bought my nexus 7, within the first hour of course i wanted to unlock, root and flash CWM on it, this is what happened, i downloaded the files necessary, went on cmd on my computer and fallowed some simple directions and i unlocked it, the problem started when i couldnt copy and paste the CWM file onto my nexus 7 it just wouldnt copy, so i went to do install the drivers for my nexus 7 on device manager, and my computer sees my nexus 7 as my previous tablet samsung tab 2, now after trying to make it work, my computer wont recognize the device at all,
so im trying to get it back to stock, factory rom when everything was working okay, because i think i somehow renamed the device as my old tablet samsung tab 2, im suprised as it still works fine, however i cant transfer files over, and i cant root because the toolkit program on my computer wont recognize the nexus 7, if there is a simple method to fix this problem or bring my nexus 7 to the way i bought it please do tell, it will be highly appreciated,
Thanx
It sounds like the drivers got messed up.
Get http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
it includes a tool & instructions for fixing the drivers under the "full driver installation guide".
You can also download a stock image here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#nakasi
I think uninstalling the previous drivers with USBDview (step 1 in the full driver installation guide) will help.
Note that while it says "guide" it includes buttons for launching included programs and scripts.
Use Wugs toolkit, click on the big button to install drivers manually/automatic I think is how it's labeled.
One of the first step offers a tool to view and delete drivers and it even specifically tells you which drivers to delete to prevent it being misrecognized and/or having conflicts.
Once you've uninstalled those just follow the instructions to install the correct ones. Once they're uninstalled you will see it in device manager as something else until you install the new drivers.

[Q] Wugfresh toolkit: Only Android composite adb interface

Hello,
I have previously rooted my nexus 7 32 gb with the exact same computer that I have now and with the same exact software (Wugfresh Toolkit 1.6.2) and when I was finished previously, I set the drivers back to their stock google drivers that would be used as if I didn't change any of the drivers. I recently had issues updating to 4.2.2 and had to flash back a stock rom to get everything working again, now I have to re-root and re-flash my recovery.
When I now follow the same exact steps now, I keep installing an android composite adb interface instead of the android adb interface, which I know you need to restart the bootloader. I have tried rebooting after every step, removing every android driver, nearly everything and keep getting the google made android composite adb interface instead of Wug's android adb interface. I am running windows 7 64 bit. So anyway, does anyone have any ideas, and yes I have looked at other threads for this, but none of them really give me the answer to this question.
Thanks

There are new drivers for adb. Try looking for them in wug's toolkit thread.

[Q] Rooting - Confused on PDANet part

Heyas all, about to purchase a Nexus 10, my first tab ever but am confused on one part about rooting.
I am following QBKing77's YouTube guide which makes use of Qugfresh's NRT V1.6.3 and there is one part I'm confused on: the PDANet drivers part.
Am I installing PDANet to my computer, or to the Nexus 10 in it's original form (fresh outta the box/not Rooted)?
Since QBKing mentioned in the video that you install PDANet to your computer, but when I try to install it right now without my Nexus 10 connected it gives me an error that it can't detect an Android phone.
You install drivers to the computer, you could install the drivers directly rather than with PDAnet
Ive never heard of using this method to root. Installing the official Google SDK and rooting it with the included utilities seems so much easier and safer.
Find the samsung naked drivers they have everything you need

[Q] Trouble Installing Drivers

Anyone out there able to help me out? Having the worst time trying to install the drivers for the G2. I had accidentally accepted an update from Verizon, and now I am stuck in a recovery loop. No matter what I try to do, I cant get my Windows 7 machine to install the driver for it.
I am trying to follow this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476) in order to restore my phone to stock, but I cant get any where without the driver installed. I have downloaded the one from the post, the one directly off of the LG site, as well as a few others I have found around the net. My computer at first thought it was a galaxy nexus lol.
Any help is really appreciated.
Used terminal in TWRP to get the system back, but I will want to return to stock.

Ran into same problem with this ****Wug's thing. Trash it and use Skipsoft Unified Android Toolkit instead. Took me a long time to erase all traces of Wurst. You need to uninstall and delete the Wurst' driver in device manager for Skipsoft to work.
