Can't see ADB interface driver

I was using Wug's nexus root toolkit last week, then my laptop got broken and now i have to use my friends' laptop. I don't know why but when i plug my N7 with Developer option ON and USB debugging ON. N7 root toolkit can't find my devices, it said that there is no adb interface driver, i checked "device manager" but there is only "Nexus 7" in portable devices, nothing more, no unregconized drivers. What should i do now, i want to get back to my stock rom and update to 4.1.2 but find it impossible.

i installed the driver from Wug's and reboot already but it didn't works.

Make sure you are logged on as Administrator when the drivers are installed.

I logged in as Admin, install PDA net drivers and Samsung USB driver but it didn't work, my laptop couldn't regconize my device >.<. Can somebody help me please

Not working for me either

Hmm, I've tried everything too. Every suggested driver, every uninstall and reboot, every workaround and fix, and on two different laptops. I suspect that this simply just doesn't work all the time.

[Q] USB and recovery problems after OTA upgrade to 4.3

I took the OTA to 4.3 on my Nexus 7. It was previously unlocked and rooted, but had no kernels, etc changed. After the update ran, I lost root as expected, however, in trying to get it back, I've discovered I'm having a couple of other issues.
First, the device is no longer working properly via USB on my PCs. On both my Win 7 and Win 8 PCs, the device won't properly connect to where I can browse files or anything else. On the Win 8 computer, I see a Nexus 7 device in Device manager, but drivers won't install. I downloaded the drivers from the Asus site, but trying to manually install them doesn't work on the Win 7 machine, and on the Win 8 machine, they install but don't seem to be working with the Nexus 7 as it still shows a problem in Device Manager.
The tablet also will not boot into recovery mode. I can power it up into fastboot mode, but if I select "Recovery Mode" and hit the power button, I just got the Android with the red triangle for a few minutes before it boots back into the OS. After doing some searching, I saw where you might need to have it plugged into a PC to get it to go into recovery, but that doesn't work, either (might be tied to the USB problem).
Ideas?

Did you turn on developer options, and USB debugging? Have you tried USB connection type PTP instead of MTP?
If you have the stock recovery, the red triangle and Android are normal. You can bring up a blue options menu by pressing the power and volume up buttons from the red triangle Android.

Yes.

Try another driver source. Wugfresh's installation is a lot tougher than Skipsoft's, but try the other guy 's system.

I was using the stock drivers off the Asus page. I'll look around for the two you mention. I assume they're posted on here somewhere.

And about the recovery just try flashing another recovery from fastboot

Without USB access? That's my dilemma.

OK, I'm getting closer. I got TWRP installed and rerooted it. I had to do the "Revoke USB debugging authorizations" on the Dev Options screen. Then it would work via ADB.
Still not browsing files yet on my desktop, but at least I know I'm talking to it. So now I'll play with the driver installation a bit.
EDIT: Well, drivers reinstalled for about the 4th time, and it's still not allowing me to browse files from my desktop. Galaxy S4 works fine as soon as I plug it in, even if I also uninstall it's drivers. Ideas? I obviously have it working over USB because I can give it commands and reboot it via the PC.

OK, try this one. Plug in your tablet to pc, go to hardware manager, find your Android Device then choose Uninstall (choose Remove all drivers for this device), unplug and plug in your tablet again. Your Windows should discover few new devices (mine has discovered three) and download drivers for them then you should see Android ADB Interface in Android Devices and Nexus 7 in Mobile Devices.

I've solved my issue

After you plug your nexus in have you unlocked the screen to see if it is asking you to authorize the tablet?
What other steps have you taken? Have you installed proper drivers? Have you manually chosen to update drivers with the sdk drivers if in device manager is showing the nexus? Have you tried the drivers from Asus?

I personally did all of those things. After having the Nexus "forget" all the other PC authorizations on the dev screen, I finally got it to accept ADB commands, just not to properly install drivers that would allow me to browse files like it had done on 4.2.

Nexus doesn`t appears in device manager. At all. It starts to charage, but no reaction in device manager, no any reaction(except charging) at nexus. On computer it looks like i didn`t connect anything. I`ve trying to intall drivers as legasy hardware, but nothing changes. Sorry for my english.

Try turning off usb debugging. My tablet cannot connect to pc but with usb debugging off it at least recognises tablet as a media device and this enables me to view its files
.but still the problem of not being able to root

Problems rooting

Ok I will try and keep this quick and simple.
I am trying to root my new unlocked bootloader Nexus 4 with Wug's toolkit.
With usb debugging enabled, my computer can't find it in fastboot.
I have tried both the universal driver method and the pdanet driver method with all of my usb ports and nothing is working. The pdanet drivers worked for my nexus 7, but they weren't working for the N4, so I uninstalled and reinstalled them for the Nexus 4. (I tried selecting LG first, that didn't work, so I tried Other, which also didn't work)
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

That's odd. Can you use a different computer?

A very old and slow windows xp yes, but I would prefer to fix it on my windows 7 so I can eventually use it to install custom roms.

While it's in debugging mode and plugged into the computer, swipe down your notification bar. It should say connected as mtp. Press on that and change it to the one that says connected as camera. I think that's how the it is... Sorry I can't totally remember, but I know that's the only way my computer recognizes mine. And it will work just fine.

Thanks that did the trick (As well as updating to the new version)

[Q] Google usb driver problems

I have been having a difficult time getting the right usb drivers for my 2013 nexus 7. I have tried the manual download fron SDK, various toolkits available (wugfresh, etc.) with no success. The furthest I got was when I tried to unlock with the "fastboot oem unlock" command, i got a "waiting on device" message.
Is there a problem with Windows Vista loading these drivers.
Please help!! I'm about to throw this tablet through the window!!

For adb and bootloader, use these drivers direct from Google:
http://dl-ssl.google.com//android/repository/latest_usb_driver_windows.zip
You might have previous attempts at install or previous drivers blocking the proper install.
Use Nirsoft USBDeview to get rid of any old Nexus 7 entries

I did that on the wugfresh toolkit, but still have issues loading a good driver that will let me unlock!

Even worse trying to find a driver which works across multiple devices..
what makes the android USB driver situation so unstable? shouldn't the devices just meet the MTP spec and no driver updates would be needed?
(obviously that is not true, but)

It has been a painful process, at least in my case. By watching the videos it seems simple. I have seen where Samsung drivers have worked in some cases. I'm wondering if Vista has something to do with it. I couldn't get any of the wugfresh toolkit drivers to work, which even had Samsung drivers. Then, finally windows loaded a Composite Android Device driver that let me get all the way to the unlocking command then said "waiting for device"??? I really want to root this tablet!!

The devices don't alway advertise themselves as MTP compatible so the OS doesn't know to use the MTP drivers. It is a bug in the implementation on those particular devices.
For example, Nexus 7 2013 advertises MTP compatibility when USB debugging is turned off, but stops doing so when USB debugging is turned on.

[Q] adb working correctly fastboot wont recognize device

I encrypted my phone without realizing that CWM did not support encrypted devices. To fix this I was going to install TWRP since it does support it. My phone is working correctly with adb but I cannot get fastboot to find the device at all. This is making it so I cannot install TWRP on my phone now. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks for any help.

You can install the recovery directly through the phone through Goomanager, but the fact that your computer doesn't recognize the device in fastboot is an issue I feel needs to be addressed. Goomanager solves the problem of the recovery, but I'm not sure about the fastboot issue.

I had this issue on a different device. To solve it I went into control panel, device manager. Then look for the usb device that had an exclamation mark on it (with your device plugged into the usb port). Right click on it and update driver software. Then go to browse my computer and choose, let me pick from a list...... Pick the android composite adb interface. It'll ask you if your sure, just say yes

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This enabled MTP mode for me in about 3 seconds on my Windows 8 PC. I had tried using Wug's toolkit both automated and manual even disabling enforcement of digital signatures on driver installation and had also installed latest ADK and Google drivers to no avail (all that got me was connection in camera mode and ability to see only DCIM). I don't remember having this kind of trouble last time I decided to play with my Nexus 4. Not sure if I was using my old Windows 7 machine then or if there is a conflict with the other drivers on my machine (I have recently flashed both Motorola and Samsung devices too). I wish you had posted a couple of hours sooner lol.
