After enabling USB debugging on my Nexus 7, I still can't get "adb devices" to list my Nexus 7. I also tried switching its USB connection type from "media" to "camera", to no effect. I have Windows 7; I see a "Nexus" device under Other Devices in my device manager, but when I try to install the Google USB drivers from the Android SDK, Windows refuses to take it.
This is going to make development difficult Anyone know where I can find working USB drivers for Windows 7?

If you have updated the drivers from the SDK, then your problem is probably coming from the cable.
PS: Try not to use an extension cable
When I have had this problem in the past I have found that installing PDA net solves it.

You may try to use device manager to solve the issue.:
Firstly please connect your Nexus 7 to you computer using the USB cable
included in the box.
Then on the tablet,
choose "Settings" -> "Storage" -> open the menu -> choose "USB computer connection" -> choose "MTP" or "PTP".
On your computer,
1. Control Panel -> Hardare and Sound -> View devices and printers
2. Click on Nexus.
3. Click on "Hardware" tab
4. Click on "Properties"
5. Click on "Change settings"
6. Click on "Driver" tab
7. Click on "Update drivers".
I'd suggest that you repeat these steps for both "MTP" and "PTP" connection types mentioned above.
Then on your computer, run "adb devices", the Nexus 7 would be listed in the
output of the adb command.
Enjoy.
Works with PTP mode - MTP mode doesn't
just for future reference...
By default it uses the MTP mode for USB. ADB is not working in this mode, even after i follow all the steps in above post.
Change it to use PTP (Camera mode), and ADB works !! go figure.
driving me crazy too.
First, windows did not recognize the thing in AdB mode. I managed to get around that with PDA net. But in cmd mode running "fastboot oem unlock" it just sits there saying "waiting for device". Also switched to both usb modes under "storage" as well as tried all usb ports on my pc (running Win 7 64bit). Using original cable.
Any other clues on what to do next?

ADB and fastboot may have two different drivers, this is the case with most other devices.
Anywho here's a link to the all inclusive driver bundle. Drivers was one of the reasons I only use a linux distro these days.

Still nothing. Deleted the drivers, and it obviously installed the new ones, since the name under the "device manager" changed. I go to the Android sdk and it still says waiting for device. Is there different versions of fastboot? Maybe its the wrong command? (fastboot oem unlock)

Oh and fastboot is not available during normal operations and it has to be booted into the bootloader to use fastboot. Try using adb reboot bootloader and then when it restarts fastboot oem unlock.
I'm in the exact same situation
I'm having the same problem. I'm not exactly sure how to use the Naked Drivers pack. Can someone advise?
Easy as ADB...
Use the step by step instructions in the Nexus Root Toolkit found here;

Set it to ptp mode, install updated sdk, and you will find proper adb driver in extras/google/usb-driver directory. After those steps adb started to work in my case' no need for third party downloads.

I've been having the same issues with all of the new android devices I've tried to use adb on my computer for. I as able to make them work by manually installing the drivers in device manager. When you choose browse for drivers manually you can look through pre installed drivers and select adb interface and manually choose the drivers for adb and fast boot. Only issue I have is that it won't give adb root access and says rot is not available in production builds. Not sue if that's related or not.

Windows 7 - Nexus 7 ADB Recognition
For me, like others, choosing either MTP or PTP from the Nexus 7's USB computer connection options didn't solve the issue. Updated to the latest version of the Android SDK Tools within Eclipse [version 20.0.1], and even uninstalled and re-installed the Google USB Driver [Revision 6] within the Android SDK manager, but no luck.
What ended up clearing the issue for me was to go to Computer Management, find the Nexus device with the question mark next to it, update the driver by browsing a location on the computer, browse to the location on your computer where you saved the Android SDK [the one with the following directories: add-ons, docs, extras, platforms, platform-tools, etc], and choose that very folder containing those folders I mentioned. It should search for a while then ask you whether or not to install some Asus/Google driver.
After installing that driver, my N7 was recognized by the "adb devices" command.
NOTE: Turns out when I updated the driver, my N7 was in PTP mode, and when I switched it to MTP mode, it was no longer recognized under adb devices. adb kill-server then adb start-server should get it recognized again when you switch between MTP and PTP.
Hope this works for all of you out there, like me, who really didn't want to take the 3rd party software route to overcome this problem.
Cheers.
ADB driver
Try to root toolkit from Wugfresh
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766475
There is a very complete and usable guide to install ADB driver for most version of windows (XP->win 7).
You don't have to unlock or root; just use the interactive guide for driver install.
Good luck

i'm having the issue with the mtp not being recognized in adb. can you be more specific in the adb kill-server and adb start-server.
Hi,
I installed ADB from here.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#download
I moved on to C:/adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130219/sdk/platform-tools
Then hold shift & right click "open command window here".
Now moving to my phone setting,
1. Developers Options-->checked on USB Debugging.
2. Security Option--> checked on Unknown Sources.
With all the options seems ok, when I tried to backup my sdcard content through ADB I got "Error: device not found" in the cmd.
Please help guys....

Do you have the correct drivers installed? Try the 0.72 naked drivers from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875.

I have downloaded these naked drivers. But how to install it on my lappy??
It's in ".zip" file.
Secondly, in my device manager I got yellow icon on my Nexus 4(windows default colour of unavailability of drivers). Possibly due to this drivers I am not able to backup content from mako sdcard.
Why not just use the ones Google intended for you to use, they work perfectly. The flag is your problem, you need to point it to the drivers you want to use. This thread should be very helpful. Same drivers.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1830108
When adb is open, type in
Code:
adb version
If it does not return "Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.31" (Or higher/newer), download the attachment (Works for my Nexus 4)
View attachment adb.zip
If it still doesn't work, download the Google ADK and install the Google USB driver through the SDK manager
Hi, my problem is this: my phone is recognized as an ADB device but I cannot see it under adb devices.
Currently running PA RC2 3.99
Fastboot and Recovery do recognize it but ADB does not.
I have the drivers from here installed them as described in the instructions with uninstalling + deleting the old ones and rebooting.
I also have the most updated version of ADB from Android SDK.
One weird thing is that if i uninstall + delete the current drivers and try to install the ones i got from the SDK and not from the thread I mentioned then it does not install them. So maybe that is where my problem...
Any advice??
Thanks in advance.

Did you enable usb debugging?
Also check that you have an option selected under Settings>Storage>USB Computer connection, not having either MTP or PTP selected there will also bork adb.
If you still can't get it to work, try Koush's universal drivers: Link
still not working...
1. Yes, usb debugging is on.......
2. Already tried toggling MTP/PTP/None - When on MTP driver installs successfully but I cannot see the device under adb devices. on the other two options (PTP/None) I am unable to install the driver (tried both the ones on XDA and the ones from MDK)
3. Tried Koush's universal driver - on PTP/None still not able to install drivers. On MTP didn't do much except for changing device name from Android ADB Device to Google Nexus ADB Interface
Thanks for all the quick replies,
Any other suggestions???

what does it say when you issue the "adb devices" command? Please write it out here so we can help you. Does it say "device offline"? If yes, then your device is not registered by digital fingerprint by Android SDK.

Ok, so I'm with my Nexus connected as an MTP device, with the driver from XDA installed (see attached image), USB Debugging enabled:
Code:
C:\>adb kill-server
C:\>adb start-server
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
C:\>adb devices
List of devices attached
C:\>
Any advice???
Anyone has any advice??
I really have not idea what to do. Tried everything...

Works on a different computer
I've connected the phone to my borther's PC and installed the drivers from the SDK. It worked without any problem.
I really can't figure out why it's not working on my laptop.
[Solved]
OK...
So as I said before I tried connecting when PTP is checked and when neither PTP nor MTP are checked and on both couldn't install the drivers properly (neither from xda nor from sdk).
What worked for me:
1. Uncheck both PTP & MTP
2. Device Manager -> Nexus 4 -> Update Driver Software -> Browse my computer for driver software
3. Now instead of browsing to the location I went to "Let me pick from a list..."
4. It should show a list of devices/manufacturers. Clicked "Show All Devices"
5. On the bottom right click "Have a disk"
6. Point to the android_winusb.inf file from Android SDK
7. Choose Android ADB Interface from the list
8. Let driver install

Has anyone gotten this to work? When I type ADB devices, I get:
Code:
????????? no permissions
I rebooted into fastboot with no luck either. Except now ADB doesn't even pick up any devices. And yes, I enabled USB debug mode and unauthorized sources.
Thanks!

I'd guess you are using an older version of the toolkit. Try downloading the latest SDK and using it to see if that helps (it'll also update to the latest drivers). Good luck.

Linux - Ubuntu to be more specific.
So I figured out the issue. I rebooted into the bootloader (unplug NP, plug it back in, immediately hold the button located on the bottom of the player until the light flashes), typed fastboot devices and it finally recognized the device. ADB still however did not recognize the device while in the bootloader until I powered it back on. Very strange... Not sure if the order I did things made a difference but I'm able to connect to the interface now.
Hope this helps someone. Cheers!

I had the same issue on Ubuntu. You need to run ADB with sudo...why? I have no idea...but I found a post suggesting it on StackOverflow and it worked...so I'm not questioning it.
Before doing anything below, have you installed adb via apt-get? If so, remove it and just put a link to your SDK manager adb and fastboot in a folder included in your PATH or add the directory to the path, then start a new shell before proceeding. The adb and fastboot provided by apt-get are old.
Do the following:
Have your device plugged in and fully booted and with USB debugging enabled
run this command: "sudo adb kill-server && adb start-server"
You should be prompted on the device to authorize the access of your computer via adb
run "adb devices" to make sure that it all worked correctly
Been trying to get an adb connection to this phone. I'm on the latest Sprint available OTA (NMJ32F). Have not side loaded the later version. Never rooted.
When connecting the phone to PC, device manager shows "Essential Phone ADB" is working properly. I also tried the Google generic ADB driver. The phone also shows a notification "ADB debugging is connected. Tap to disable".
"adb devices” always returns empty. I am able to adb other devices.
I think the problem is the phone is not asking me to authorize the ADB connection as my other phones and tablets normally do.
Any idea?
Did you get permissions on your phone when popup appears?
No. The phone doesn't pop up the permission question. But I don't know why.
Don't know but as long as you don't give permission you can't sideload

Try the usb driver and SDK platform tools directly from Essential website:
https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds
I am using the drivers from Essential website. However, I was using the lastest Unified Android Toolkit for the adb command. Looks like it may be outdated, as the adb.exe and it's dll's in the link from Essential website is newer. I will try the platform tools from there and see if there is a difference.
Thanks!
Is USB debugging enabled in Developer settings?
Are you in Fastboot? Did you try "fastboot devices"?
ADB devices returns your device is offline?
