PC doesn't recognize phone VS980 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just got the VS980 yesterday, rooted with ioroot and installed Beanstalk 4.4.2.. until I put beanstalk on it, my laptop would recognize it with the koush universal drivers and the LG united drivers v2.13 and I could explore the device fine, transfer files, etc. Since installing Beanstalk, my laptop sees the device as LG AndroidNet Phone(with debugging enabled) or USB Charge Only device(without debugging) but I can't explore the device to transfer files
I've tried uninstalling and redoing all the drivers, debugging on/off, etc to no avail and I feel like I'm doing not doing something that's right in front of my face... anyone have any suggestions or fixes?

[Q] computer wont recognize my Nexus 7

Can't get a Pc to recognize my N7, I have installed the correct drivers and was able to access as a mass storage before I began rooting / bootloader work. Whenever I try now I get the noise that something is connected via the USB port but that's it from a computer standpoint. The tablet says it is connected as a media device. I've tried reinstalling the drivers and doing a factory wipe and still no luck. Same issue on mac. any responses are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Drivers installed using toolkit 2.0

TMobile G2 cant connect to PC over wire

So, I cant seem to be able to connect my G2 to the PC via USB cable. I get "usb device not recognized" error, and when looking for the device via LGPC Suite, it says driver not installed and attempts to re-install the driver to no avail. Im using Win 7 64 bit. Here's what Ive done to attempt to fix it:
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the driver and LGPC Suite in my normal user account and in admin admin account.
Redownloaded both driver and LGPC Suite and doing the above.
Tried 3 different USB cables.
Tried 2 different USB ports.
Yes, Im changing the connection options on the phone from MTP and LG Software.
Phone charges normally over USB.
I *can* however connect to LGPC Suite via wifi successfully.
Any ideas? Im stumped.

Sorry for bumping old thread, but have you found a solution? I found my self in exactly same situation as you describe.
Phone is in LG Software mode
LG Suite can find the phone over Wi-fi, other modes work through USB.
Tried on two different computers, with win7/win8 respectively.
Stock EU ROM, just bought it.
Tried different USB ports.
Yet PC doesn't recognize it :/
EDIT: Never mind, solved it by following the following instructions in another thread:

You must be on 64 bit windows. Not even on 64bit, Still try this...
1) Uninstall LG Drivers, LG PC Suite and anything you see named LG. Restart PC.
2) Install latest LG Driver from this post (step 4)
3) Install Optional MTP Driver from this post (step 4)
4) Open Windows Device Manager (just to watch whats happening.)
5) Disconnect Internet (To avoid stupid online WDM drivers)
6) Connect phone with Usb and let drivers install automatically. Give it some time to install drivers keeping watch on Device Manager window.
7) Keep changing USB connect modes to all modes one-by-one on Phone and let drivers install.
You should see MTP drivers installed now. If this does not help, cant think of anything else. If this works, press THANKS button
EDIT: Connect USB at backside of pc, directly to USB on pc motherboard.

MTP Mode not working

Hey,
So I got my D802 today and I want to do the whole Root, Recovery, ROM shenanigans.
But for the love of god I cant connect the phone in MTP mode, so I cant Root, nor install a recovery.
I cant connect to the LG PC Suite either.
Any Ideas?
what connection type are u choosing after plugging it into the computer? are u running Windows, Mac, Linux? Windows will work with mtp out of the box but I think Mac and Linux need phone drivers installed. Windows will need drivers when you're ready to "unlock" using adb.

Right, so I´m running Win7 64 Bit
I tried multiple USB Ports, rebooting PC and Phone, resetting Phone and now i´m all out of ideas
I never had any problems with the other phones I rooted and unlocked on this Computer

when you first plug in your phone it gives you the option to install the drivers needed to connect in the different modes, if not on the top right corner of the menu with charge/mtp/pc software it should have the option to install the drivers

you never said what connection type you're choosing on the phone after plugging it in. there are a few options and change how the phone is seen by Windows. some options won't have it display as an mtp device or as a drive letter in my computer.

Really Weird
I'm having the same issue. I'm running OptimusG3 v1.3, I've never had an issue with it before, I used MTP to transfer files yesterday, worked flawlessy, now it won't. I was trying to map the G2 as a network drive, I installed LGPCSuite, a couple of other software that should be inconsequential, and suddenly my phone says connected as MTP, but my laptop won't recognize or show the device in My Computer. I get installing device drivers prompts, I used the hardware and devices troubleshooter which told me 'LGE Android MTP Device has a driver problem' and LGE Mobile USB Modem has a driver problem. Reinstall device driver -> completed, but still not fixed. I installed LG's universal uSB tool or whatever, no fix. I have no idea wth is up (It's not a USB debugging accidental toggle either). I'll try uninstalling PCSuite. I though it would be more useful

Can't debug LG G3 d855 on my Windows 7 machine

When I enable android debugging on my LG G3 d855 phone (Cyanogenmod 12.1) and plug it into my PC (using a good USB cable), Windows 7 says it can't install drivers for the device with the error "no driver found". I tried installing some drivers but they don't seem to have worked. Can anyone point me to exactly which drivers I need to do adb debugging of the phone?
