[Q] Nexus 7 and non working USB...any way to root? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I bought my Nexus 7 in September 2012, I had some mistakes with the MicroUSB port (it charges but don't finds any PC or USB OTG devices). Now I want to root it, but I can't unlock the bootloader from PC due to that problem, so, there are other ways to root? Framaroot doesn't works, there's any other exploit? Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.

Have you installed the drivers properly?.Which os do you have on ur pc?.
Try wugs toolkit to install drivers and root

I unlocked my Nexus⁴ with Wug's toolkit, but the problem is the tablet's microUSB. I tried different PC's , but only one have recognised it, only as a USB mass storage. Also the tablet doesn't finds OTG stuff, it worked only 1 time on 100.

NExus 7 not showing up in ADB

hey guys
so i am trying to root and unlock my Nexus 7
I am using the same computer i unlocked my LTE Gnex and rooted my dads Droid X.
My PC can't find my Nexus 7 in ADB. could it be because of the drivers from the past devices?
I made sure to enable usb debugging and have the OEM cable...
Any help
Thanks

did u reboot?
but yes, it could be a driver from past devices.
if u use the Nexus Toolkit, there's a step-by-step guide with embedded tools to search all existing devices. i think its called USBDeview? maybe u can google that separately.

What about using a different USB port? Or check if you have USB debugging enabled or disabled in developer options. Unable it helped me recently connecting it to win8 system. Don't know why though...
Yes, try disabling USB debugging in developer options.

USB driver trouble

Ive been searching and trying for quite some time now for a solution but I have yet to find one.
My problem is this, I've soft bricked my Nexus 7. I can get into fastboot and recovery (CWM).
My computer has had a fresh install since i rooted last, now when i connect with USB it doesnt even come up in device manager. Everything ive found online tells me Windows will automatically detect the device then i can update the driver. But i cant even get that far!
I was wondering if anyone could PLEASE help me figure this one out? Is there some way to force Windows 7 to install a USB driver for Nexus 7. Ive downloaded the specific driver.
I'd hate for my Nexus 7 to end its life this way.
Did you try with wugs toolkit. It should have multiple solutions for USB drivers.

I tried Wugs toolkit... also step by step, manually in SDK but Im always getting stuck at "Windows will automatically detect your device" because it doesnt.
the only solution i can think of is to get another nexus 7 to install the drivers and take it from there, but thats a leap i'd rather not take unless it's completely necessary. Even then there is no guarantee that it will work.
Are the latest chip set drivers for the computer installed correctly? All windows updates and drivers? Tried another USB device, cord, and port? Of the 5 ports on my laptop only 1 works for adb and fastboot.

When using WUG's Toolkit be sure to use the USB deview tool inside the driver section.. Remove all of the entries with the Vendor IDs listed in the tool dialogs.

Interesting that some of you have been able to get adb working. I've tried every possible USB drivers and cannot get adb working for my nexus 7, nexus 10, or Acer iconia A1-830. My phone still runs android 4.2, connects no problem. There is no solution, must be because I'm still running winxp on laptop

[Q] Nexus 7 is unable to connect to any computer no matter what I try

I have this really annoying problem with brother's Nexus 7 2012 wi-fi model.
It won't connect to ANY computer. I am not able to transfer files using mtp nor see it using adb. That meaning I can't root the device. I can't use it to develop android apps...
I know that this problem is discussed all over the internet, but no solution works for me.
I tried bunch of tutorials, done factory reset to nexus and anything that i could find on the internet to connect device to PC, but nothing is working...
I believe it is related to nexus 7 usb drivers, because cable is working with my galaxy s2 and also I tried like 5 other usb cables and 2 PCs on Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Ubuntu 14.04, but still no luck.
I tried everything in post which link I can not post cause I am newly registered member (maybe after 10 posts or so as submission error states, I will update OP). It is good post with a lot of suggestions but none of them is working for me.
Then I tried full driver installation guide in nexus 7 root toolkit. I also tried bunch of other tutorials on different forums but still no luck.
It might be nexus 7 usb port problem, because I don't see it using lsusb under ubuntu, but on the other hand in windows 7 it is recognized as unknown device and some wrong generic driver is installed for it. So I am not sure what to think...
If you can help me, it will be very appreciated , because I lost all my ideas...
Update: Tablet got android 5 update recently. Connection to PC is still not working. Any advices please?
I had a similar problem but I had already rooted the n7. It wouldn't charge either. I have to charge it through the pogo port and I use a powered otg cable to access USB sticks.

How did you manage to root it? Did adb work for you?
I have the exact same problem with my nexus 7. I have also tried many things to fix it but I was not successful. I think it must be a problem with the USB port since it is charged while connected to the PC but I cannot transfer files or even install the proper USB drivers.

Nexus 4 5.1.1 LMY48T not recognized by PC at all!

Hello everyone I've got an issue with my Nexus 4 which is why I registered, as I simply don't know what to do anymore.
My Nexus 4 is not recognized via USB at all, there is no connection sound and ist does not appear in the device manager.
It is charging and does show USB charging if I tap the battery icon.
Things I tried:
Uninstall/Install Driver with and without WugFresh Toolkit (USBDeview)
different Pcs (different USB Ports)
different USB cables which all worked with other mobile devices such as Samsung S3/4/5 mini
checking and unchecking MTP,PTP and Usb debugging
fastbootmode
factory reset
replaced the USB flex cable as i figured it would be defect
I tried to root it with some of the apps available bur none of them work with LMY48T.
I think it might be firmware related but because I didn't flash a Custom Recovery the last time I rooted it I have no possibility to flash another rom.
The root access was lost when the last OTA Update arrived which is why I can't install a custom recovery via the clockworkmod Rom Manager.
The Pc I'm working with is running on Win 10 I'm running out of ideas.
Please help me, thank you
