[Q] phone not seen now

hi all. i updated my computer today with the MS usual monthly updates but now when i plug my nexus4 into the usb socket, my computer doesn't show it in the main window where it usually does (like where it shows 'C' drive) it shows as being connected as a MTB media device via usb by the system clock but that's it. i cant open the device, copy apps into the phone or open anything to do with the phone. debugging is still enabled, according to the phone and it shows up as Google Nexus ADB Interface under device manager in windows7 x64
anyone else had this happen? anyone know how to cure the problem please?
many TIA

Try going into the device manager and select update drivers.

hi Berrydroidcafe. tnx for response.
it was a driver issue but i had to uninstall and reinstall them. did try the update but no good. strange that it should just do that today, after the windows update. coincidence? i can only assume so.
anyway, tnx again

[Q] Nexus 4 no longer recognised as a device on Mac OSX

Hi Folks,
I've been unable to sync photos to iPhoto on my Mac (10.9.2) for a few months now. Decided to upgrade to latest 4.4.2 (update from google) but it's still not recognized as a device. As far as I remember if I had it in MTP mode, when I plugged the phone in iPhoto used to open with options to sync photos.
I previously rooted the phone with CWM and SuperSU, the device does appear in the list when I run:
$ ./adb-mac devices
List of devices attached
01637f56g7814390 device
When USB debugging is turned on, a message "USB debugging connected" appears on screen, but iphoto doesn't see the device, and nothing in Disk Utility either. Android File transfer says: "No Android device found".
Any help to get photo sync / file transfer operational again much appreciated.
Thanks

The 4.4.2 update seems to be fine, haven't noticed anything weird, certainly no 'bricking', it's the photo syncing / device detection that still doesn't work (it wasn't syncing before the upgrade). I'm looking for some troubleshooting ideas, like log files to look at, or some options to try. I've tried several usb cables, same result.
[Edit: the poster I was replying to deleted their comment about their phone getting bricked, oh well]

Found the option, it's buried in
Settings>Storage>...Menu>USB computer connection>Camera (PTP)
very intuitive thank u google
Hopefully this will be helpful to someone else out there

File transfer not working properly

Hello guys, i've got some problem with file transfer both in pc to op5 and op5 to pc with USB, i don't know why but apparently the problem affect only medium to big files. I can transfer little files like jpg, while i have some problem with mp3, sometime work sometime not, if i insist generally work. If i try with huge files like the OTA now that i'm trying to upgrade the oxygen is not working at all. I suppose the drivers are properly installed since i can open the folders inside pc. Obviously the debug usb is active, i tryed to enable mtp in developer option (is normal that there isn't any mtp selection in the four transfer available? even if enabled mtp i still see "recharge" "file transfer" "photo transfer ptp" "midi"). I usually select file transfer, i don't even know what MIDI is and ptp is only about photos. The phone is rooted with the last official twrp and last magisk, the os is OOS 4.5.8. and is still encrypted. PC is with windows 10
edit: i can't even copy/paste those big files from a folder inside the phone to another one always in the phone.

Try using a USB 2.0 port

Might be a long shot but try doing a simple restart of your phone and computer and see if that helps

You should get a mini notification underneath your quick settings. Select file transfer and should be good to go. The default is USB charging.

Try rolling back the driver or uninstalling maybe. Also would try a different chord if you can just in case.
