For some reason when i connect the phone the the computer, it wont show up MTP.. but for PTP it works.. When its connected the small window pops up alerting me the "nexus 4" was connected but thats it, the drive wont show up.
I think getting rid of the adb drivers I used so it doesnt show up as "android adb inferface" will solve the issue... but whenever I uninstall the drivers from device manager and delete
the usb drivers folder.. it still installs them right back when I connect the usb!
*edit* it detects on my dads computer just fine and MTP works.. i think it has to do with the adb drivers i installed.. wish i knew how to uninstall them for good so windows wouldnt automatically install them again even with deleting the drivers folder off my harddisk
Bump. Tried everything to no luck

Did you find a solution to this? I am having the same problem. The original drivers that installed worked just fine over MTP but not adb. Now, abd works but my Nexus wont show up as an MTP device.

Try these drivers, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514942 i have no problems with them.
It works!! Thanks a lot! I was going crazy trying to figure out what was wrong.
Anyone else with problems seeing the storage after plugging into PC? adb command works and device drivers installed. Found another forum where turning the usb from MTP to charging and back under developer options does the trick. I have a non stock ROM and seeing if fresh out of the box experiences the same thing.
I have the same issue and can't seem to figure out how to get it to work. My work around has been to use ES File Explorer and open Remote Manager.
Edit: I just plugged it in again to see what I can find. I turned off USB Debugging and Developer Options. Plugged in and pulled the notification bar down, there is an option to change USB Settings to Charging, Power Supply, File Transfers (this works), Photo Transfer and MIDI. Give it a go!

I am running to the exact same problem.
I have tried with USB Debugging off AND on, still no go. I think there's a problem with installing the drivers. Whenever I check the device manager, it still says the drivers weren't installed. I have tried installing the Google drivers. What do we do?!

Need to get the drivers to install first and foremost. Even with USB Debugging on, I'm still able to pull down and change from charge only. Those drivers are key. I had to restart my computer before it was able to take the install.

I'm able to get to the pulldown and change the setting from charging to MTP. Every time I do that, I get a window showing that I'm installing the drivers for Nexus 6P. Then it completes. I can do this over and over again. In the device manager, there's a little exclamation mark by the Nexus 6P and says these drivers weren't installed Code 28. I have exhausted Google to no avail!
Anyone find a solution to this?

You chose to install the drivers manually instead of having the system do it for you? Right click the yellow exclamation .. update drivers .. allow me to pick .. choose the download file location see what that gives you.

When I choose the location, I see a bunch of options. The most relevant ones are ADB Interface and Android Device. Under Android Device there are several more options such as Android Adapter Interface, Android Bootloader Interface, and the such; no mention of MTP.

Did you already download the google USB drivers?
Should just be able to choose the android_winusb.inf driver. It should allow MTP

I have downloaded them. How do I specifically choose just that file? When I go through updating the driver, it asks for a folder location.
Go to dev options, switch the USB from ptp back to mtp and it works for me

I don't have any other drivers from any other devices. This is a clean install of Windows 8.1. I've only tried connecting my 6P, my OG 6, and my 9. All have the exact same problem.

I installed that application and I was able to see my device, the apps, the contacts, everything. EXCEPT I wasn't able to access the device from Windows Explorer which means I am not able to transfer files.

So when you change the option in the phone from charging to file transfer, did you check the device manager to see if there any unknown device showing somewhere?

Changing it from charging to MTP shows a MTP device in Manager with a yellow exclamation mark next to it. When looking into the details, it says that no drivers are installed. When I try "Updating Drivers", it says "Windows failed to install drivers. Code 28" or something along those lines. Code 28 MEANS that Windows failed to install drivers.
Thanks for nothing Microsoft.
Nexus 6p Connection to PC Issue - This Helped!
I had similar problems with PC not recognising my Device. I found http://www.technobuzz.net/install-google-nexus-6p-usb-drivers/ which helped me solve my issues.
1. Downloaded and installed the Huawei Nexus 6p drivers. This installed a Huawei Task Manager which connection to pair was still not recognisable.
2. Deleted old drivers (acer, samsung, htc) from' Device Manager'. This actually helped PC recognise my device which showed up in the Device Manager>Other Devices>Nexus 6p, also in PC interface but once moved off charging to MTP, computer didnt recognise device.
3. Downloaded and installed the adb/fastboot installer. Followed instructions till step 10. My screen didn't show anything like Andoid ADB interface, it displayed MTP file install, which I installed. Just remember to refresh in My PC interface when changing over from charging to MTP, sometimes Nexus 6p will be hidden.
4. Uninstalled the Huawie Task Manager.
This has solved my problem with PC and Device connection. The instructions given are from what I can recall of the process I went through.
Credit to Sidharth Rathore from Technobuzz for this solution.
Hope this helps.
Later.
p.s. I have a windows 10 laptop if this helps.

I was having the same issue until I uninstalled some other debugging drivers I had installed. So I would recommend crawling through your installed apps for any other android usb drivers and uninstalling them if you still have this issue.
Working on mine right now. Found that USB 3.0 ports will not recognize device. Once plugged into a 2.0, it is recognized. Might help your issue
when i put the phone on my laptop its not showing, i picked storage or photo but its not showing any folder, nothing in my pc. Windows 10
It was working for about 5 min then it stoped again
Sorry if its been asked loads
Cheers guys
Drivers. Check different ports. Restart computer and phone. Make sure usb debugging is on. Basically troubleshoot.
Still not working, my nexus 6 works fine....
Is there a driver just for this phone or do you mean adb ? I just use the google universal drivers.
Can you link me to any other pages that might help please
Thanks
only works when i enable development mode
did you install Google Android SDK? i suggest install that, which wil solve most driver issues
trying to get some help for my ZE551ML 4gb - unrooted and with the latest update
I have never had an issue plugging my phone into my pc and transferring files. I bought my daughter a BLU R1HD and that wont wont show up on any pc when plugged into USB...yes dev and debug is enabled.....installed a bunch of different drivers to try to get that phone to work and it wont....
but worse is now my phone wont show up.
I went to the main thread here and located drivers and installed, and nothing....went to asus support and dl drivers and nothing...
does anyone know why or how i can get the drivers installed on my W10 PC so I can plug phone into usb and transfer files?
In the pc's device manager, is the device listed there? And is there a yellow mark on the device name? Maybe the drivers didn't install properly, you can right click on the device and click update driver, then choose automatically, you must be connect to the internet for it to find the required driver and install automatically.
I had same issue. Makw sure phone is not. Plugged into the pc. Load up windows into safe mode with networking. Once there open device manager. From the pulldown menu choose show hidden devices then find the Asus drivers and uninstall and if available tick the box that says delete the driver.. reboot, reinstall.... Done.
This will work for most usb devices that are having issues.

sadly this did not work. I grabbed the drivers from the ZF2 resource thread here at XDA
https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-usb-driver-for-android-devices
for the BLU R1HD I was told to install these
https://androidmtk.com/download-mtk-usb-all-drivers
whih i did and also uninstalled and resinstalled along with the intel drivers.
I did exactly as explained above and the device will not show up.
I have the Z00AD -- ZE551ML -- 4GB/2.3GHz 64gb version running Stock OS with NO ROOT - an its up to date (v 40.194)
I attached screen shot to show what I have going on - thanks
come on
Are you using the same cord for both phones with the computer? If so, try a different cord

Reboot the pc with the "disable driver signature verification" option and then reinstall the drivers.
This may or may not have some relevance to your problem. Try downloading a program called USB Device Viewer, run it as an administrator and uninstall all the phone drivers that are listed. Reboot your computer, plug your ZE551ML in and let it install the drivers. Hope this is of some help.
i finally fixed this bs problem. simply a matter of device manager >>>> portable devices >>>>> right click >>> update drive>>> browse my computer >>> Let me pick>>>
for me i had
Model
MTP Device
MTP USB Device
select MTP USB DEVICE >>> Click Next and done
how stupid is this? the simple solution after 2 weeks of pain in the ass is what makes this so stupid.
Basically it just charges the device even when selected media transfer, nothing shows up.
Tried different USB cables, updating drivers, restarting nothing is working.
Device manager has a error symbol next to the driver SDM636, updating the driver however fails.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

if you are running windows 7 and up right click and click run as admin.
say yes to all the prompts.
if you are running 64bit windows you will get security error when installing device drivers just check always install and click install.
once it installs connect phone to pc and select mtp mode and see if it works.

Try connecting your phone to another system.. sometimes the drivers get corrupted on the system. If the phone is detected on another system, then just search on the net to show hidden devices in devices manager, and delete the ghosted devices in the device manager on the system.
No none of the methods are working.
Removed all ghosted devices too. Shows unknown device below sdm636, both have error sign next to them.
The main issue is all phones in device manager show up under "portable devices" but mine is showing under "other devices".
It's not updating even when manually done.

My last thought would be to enable USB debugging through developer options and check again.. sometimes it works as it does change the connected path in the phone. If this doesn't work, maybe you should try warranty to replace it.
Just for your info, there are android apps like Airdroid which can transfer any content from a system to a phone in a matter of seconds through WiFi.

USB debugging didn't work as well.
AirDroid and share it for PC are annoying.

If Windows 10, you will find an error like " device descriptor request failed" device under USB in Device Manager. Just uninstall it and reconnect your phone. It should detect under "This PC".
Worked for me this way.

No that's not it.
Mine is a completely different problem, it says " one of the installers cannot complete the installation at this time ".
No difference if I uninstall update or disable it's getting nowhere.
Had same problem! Was trying all the steps, but for me helped to switch to MIDI and then to MTP (in developer settings) - now it works. Try yourself.

Somewhat a similar case to mine.
Today I decided to unlock bl , flash twrp and root my M1.
Tried 3-4 methods , 3 PCs , manually installed drivers and wasted 4hrs but all got zero results. Everytime after clicking on "unlock.cmd" nothing happens. Just command window shows erase all devices ... something like that.
I am currently on latest build i.e. 311.
Any help is welcomed.

Download and Install Google USB Driver - https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb
Disable, if already enabled, USB Debugging then re-enable it and try connecting it to your computer. Try switching modes (charging>photos>mtp) if your device doesn't get detected straight away.
Solved : This works for me !!!
This is on my Windows 7
Go to Device manager and "Show enable hidden device" under view menu.
I found a new device at the very top with strange name (forgot to note the name)
Uninstall it and then right click on any device and click on "scan for hardware changes" again (Make sure the phones is connected when scaning)
It reinstalled the device and got my phone working
Hope this helps someone..
I somehow solved this by installing both usb google driver and the asus driver one for windows. Didn't restart my computer or anything and when I reconnect my phone with usb debugging and ptp transfer, suddenly there's the permission with certificate something on my phone and I pressed yes and allow this computer, and voila! It shows up after I typed adb devices on the command prompt.
I am having the very same problem but I can transfer file connected of a portable media player, etc.
The problem comes when I try to connect my phone via USB debugging, it shows "No drivers found". Also when installing/reinstalling drivers using 15 seconds installer in the second next windows it's Shows Google Inc. drivers are installed.
OS on PC: Windows 7 32-bit
Phone: Stock (Out of the box and updated over OTA updates to latest).

@.hack//G.U. Could you please upload the Asus driver somewhere and share it? Since then Asus has removed whatever driver was there. Nothing like that now in the Downloads.
You need to install your phone's drivers in PC
You need to install your phone's drivers in PC in order to get recognised by your PC.
Try ADB driver which is time saver always.
