Can't install NVIDIA USB driver Windows 7

I'm trying to Root my Samsung Tab 10.1 and I'm stuck at a step in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130574
Section 2 step 14.
I cant get my computer to install the unsigned USB driver.
When I browse I can see it, chooses it, but it wont install.
Instructions say just bypass the errors but I don't even get those.
It just stops the install and gives me nothing.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Try running the attached utility and remove any Samsung references or references to any other no longer needed usb devices. Then reinstall the Samsung drivers. That's what worked for me.

I installed it on my PC (win7 64bit) yesterday following the same instructions and it loaded fine.
In your Device manager do you see the device as "APX device" with questionmark.
One more thing, try uninstalling the previos one and then reboot the PC and start again.

I used Samsung Kies and it installed the USB drivers.

I'm on 32bit. Does this matter?
And...
Do you mean to uninstall APX or the NVIDIA Boot Driver?

I don't think 32/64 bit matters.
Yes, uninstall the APX (Nvidia recovery boot driver) and then press the buttons again on Gtab to enter APX mode and connect to PC and reinstall.

LG G2 Bootlooping - Can't get into recovery

I had CM 10.2 on my LG G2 but I wanted to give it to a friend so I thought I'd better remove the root for warranty reasons. I removed it with this method(D802): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
After flashing it stucks on the LG logo. I tried to get into recovery by holding Vol down + Power but it turns off and the LED begins to blink red. After that I used "Upgrade Recovery" with the LG mobile support tool. Now my branding(hutchinson 3) is back but it still stucks and I still can't get into recovery.
I've now been looking for 6 hours for any solutions but nothing seems to be working so far. I hope you can help me.

try vol dwn+pwr until the LG logo shows up, let go and press and hold them again

It boots up to the 3 Branding then and the bootloop keeps on going.

The uota
Connect it to your PC and use ADB to reset it

ADB can't find my device
edit: It must be a driver problem, "lge android net mtp device" cannot be installed for some reason. I re-downloaded and installed the drivers, restarted my comp and "lge android net mtp device" is still not working.

Volume up to enter download mode while inserting USB. Will install drivers. If not, extract drivers, point module from device manager to folder. If still no, try koush's universals. Flash stock. You may not have a recovery left after looping with kdz.

It says driver is already installed, but it isn't.

So uninstall, reconnect, force them.

Still not working.
Device manager - property of MTP device
Device satus: Device can't be started(Code 10). (Sorry I had to translate it from German.)

Phone needs to be in download mode. It should trigger other drivers, not just mtp. Try another computer...

Um.
Try do this

You can also try to install pdanet and check with that. Select the device and proceed. Once the drivers are installed .. Try flashing the stock... Lemme know of this works

[Q] Having driver issues in Download mode VS980

I have a rooted Verizon LG G2 that I somehow screwed up when going to Lollipop from KitKat. I have lost my 3G and LTE capabilities, thus no data unless connected to WiFi. From what I have read, it sounds like I need to try to revert to stock and start over. This is where I am having my major issues. I have tried the .kdz and the .tot methods of returning my phone to stock firmware. Upon placing my phone into Download mode on both a PC and a laptop (Windows 7 on both) my phone is at best recognized as a USB Modem Phone ADB Port, not the Port (COM LPT) that is required for either method to work. What can I do to get my phone to register as the Serial Port so that the LG Flash Tools will recognize it? (I have installed the most recent LG VZW Drivers and have uninstalled other drivers without any changes). Thanks

!bump having the same issue myself

Screenshots, exact details, please. Maybe it's a simple driver fix or maybe it's a scary Qcomm diag mode issue (hopefully the good one). You've installed the latest drivers from LG, yes (3.12 or 3.13)? You often (usually) have to manually update the driver in Device Manager. Nothing listed under COM ports at all while the phone is in download mode?
Standard what-have-you:
Install latest LG Drivers (can be downloaded from LG support website).
Open Windows Device Manager and look under COM Ports for the LG device. Right-click on device, choose properties, and change the COM port to Port 41. Even if it says that port is already in use, do it anyways. This the port that LG Flash Tools uses to flash their stock images.
NOTE: Some tutorials will tell you to set your computers date back to make LG Flash Tools work: that is incorrect with version 1.8x and unnecessary, ignore them.
After the port is set to 41, unplug the USB cable from the phone, then open up LGFlashTools.exe. Select the correct VS980 .dll file and select the TOT file to flash. Press OK. Then press the yellow arrow in the upper left of the main LG Flash Tools window. It will think for a minute, then say Ready! or some such crap in the upper left port 41 box. Then you plug the USB cable back into the phone and it will start flashing. You do not have to wait until it reaches 100%, only until the phone fully boots up and presents you with the LG Setup Wizard (1st thing it asks for is your language preference). After you get there just close the LG Flash Tools program.
If it does not successfully flash:
-- Make sure you connect the USB cable directly to a motherboard port, do *not* use a hub.
-- Do not connect or remove others devices to your system until the flashing is done, as I've had that bork my flash before.

LG site has latest VS980 drivers as 2.18
When I plug in my phone and download mode starts, Device Manager will intially show it under 'Other Devices' as 'Android'. Then it will load a generic Android ADB driver. If I hijack the driver install I can manually install an LG Port (COM and LPT) driver, but it will error upon install. It will still show with a yellow exclamation point. I can still change the Port here, but its the error that I think is holding everything up.
I've tried both the kdz and tot method to no avail.
I've tried on a PC, both front and rear USB ports, and a laptop (both USB ports) and no luck.
Any other info I can provide to you? Thanks for helping

Stick to the rear USB ports on the PC, definitely. I've sometimes had it work via a hub, sometimes not (more often not).
So you've chosen the LGE AndroidNet driver, yes? And at this point you don't have the LG Flash Tools open yet, yes? It's best to keep that closed until after you've set the COM port to 41 (probably safe either way, but it does flag a conflict in com ports sometimes, which IME, doesn't matter, but still). While leaving the phone plugged into the USB, is that exclamation point still there after reboot? Screenshots? What error message does it provide under the devices status when you choose Right-click->Propertires(/Alt+Enter)?

Info
I've attached screenshots of the driver error as I install it and its properties. I've also attached shots of using the kdz method showing that nothing is detected when I press the phone information button, and also a shot of the error saying phone is disconnected when starting the flash process.

Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't see this reply! XDA sometimes notifies me of replies, sometimes it doesn't. Often it doesn't, grrrr! Are you still stuck here? lol. crap, so sorry.
EDIT:
Oh, when I was mentioning port 41 I think was thinking LG Flash Tools for TOT files, no the 2014 version (which I haven't used in a while).
But that's moot, thanks to the 'device cannot start' error. This should put it into perspective:
- Uninstall all the drivers for that, all LG drivers, all Android drivers, kill 'em all -- this includes uninstalling all LG smartphone software, too. (Note: using something like UninstallTool is always best (IObit has a bloatware-laden tool like that that's free), but surely the Windows Installer should uninstall fine.)
- Reboot.
- Reinstall LG Drivers with their installer.
- Boot device into Android then plug in USB.
Windows should do the usual finding drivers rigamarole, and if it's taking a long time (more than 30 seconds or so), unplug device, the Windows add drivers dialogs should disappear, then plug it back in.
- Check Device Manager to make sure the drivers automatically loaded up, check the details on each of the drivers to make sure it's the LG driver (since you should have no other LG or Android drivers installed at this point it should be).
- If exclamation point next to device, the do the update driver thing and choose the correct LG driver.
- Reboot Windows.
- Unplug device.
- Put device in 'Download Mode' and connect USB (use motherboard ports if on desktop, not hub or case ports; never had port problem on laptop).
- Check Device Manager to see if drivers auto-found it (usually not, for me).
- Update them to LG drivers.
Is the driver still throwing up errors at this point?
Oh, when in Device Manager, select the device, then choose from the menubar View->Device by Connection. It will show the other drivers loaded for that device, and more importantly, it will show just where the device is connected to. A screenshot of that would be mucho helpful if your problem still persists.
Again, sorry I didn't get back to you. D:

Ha ha, I wasn't notified of this either. I never did get it to work. Because what I was really looking for was to get my radios working again, I had another member suggest going to a ;stock-ish' rom and flashing it (xdabbeb) along with the 12b bootstack. Lo and behold this worked for me. I was able to get my phone to show up via ADB so that I could push the files over. I never could get the .tot or .kdz to work, but I don't have the need to continue on at this point.
Thanks for your help though!

hello BEEVE i have screwed my lg g2 in the same way so can you please tell me how did you fix it or give me a link or something anything is fine
thanks in advance

I ended up flashing to a Rom that was based on stock LG. Been awhile so I don't remember. It seemed to help after a while. I also used the LTE Discovery app whenever I wasn't using my phone. The thought was that it would trick it into working. I think what actually ended up working was time. It just eventually started working better. Maybe a combination of everything, I don't know. I no longer use the phone so it's a little sketchy.

Stuck on boot, can't access download mode, recovery crashes

I tried rooting my G2 using this guide, and seem to have f'ed up somehow.
The phone now won't boot (stuck at the "LG" screen, with rainbow LED), and I can't get into download mode.
The strange thing is that I do get into recovery mode, but it seems to exit abruptly. When I try to recover (by selecting yes twice), the Android recovery icon shows up for a couple of seconds, but then it goes back to the "LG" boot screen again.
I would be grateful for any help.
I've tried connecting to a computer with Ubuntu, as per this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582142, but I was unable to mount the phone.
It does show up in the device manager in Windows, under "Portable Devices".

I've disovered that the guide I followed for rooting was for G3 phones (and the G2 D805). I'm guessing this could be part of my problem.
But the guide said that I should be safe, since I had Lollipop. The Download mode should be able to save me if anything went wrong. But alas.
Before starting the rooting process I had the latest Lollipop update from LG (it was performing poorly, that's why I wanted to install a custom ROM).
Is it possible to save this phone? I'll probably look for a good deal on the 5X at Black Friday if I can't fix the G2, but I'd rather keep this phone working for a while anyway.

Still having trouble with this.
If I turn on the phone and connect it to a PC (with the phone stuck at the "LG" screen) it appears my the device manager on my PC, but adb.exe reports no connected devices.

no connecting to pc

How do I install these? When I plug in the phone and view properties in device manager, I can't select update or uninstall driver.
(I would insert a screenshot here, but I need to have more posts on the forum first)
EDIT: I just removed the LG drivers by uninstalling the LG software + drivers, and removing any left over drivers using Nirsoft USBDeview. Then I installed Koush’s Universal ADB Driver. But adb still reports no connected devices... I guess this device is bricked after all.

Fastboot not detected, although drivers are installed and Everything is done. Urgent!

I'm in a bit of a fix. I correctly rooted my nexus 6p. I could originally run it in fastboot mode. But I wanted to install a ROM, and I foolishly cleared off my /system files as well. I nearly can get it fixed, but the one problem is that I can't get my PC to get my phone to get detected in fastboot AFTER this. But the phone is detected in recovery mode.
I searched everywhere and didn't get a good result. Anyone?
The rom is https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/rom-t3488519
and I have flashed the vendor img, and the Rom. System files are now back, but I cant flash the radio image as I cant get my PC to detect it in fastboot.
This fastboot problem is bothering me a lot. Please, if you know how to fix it then please explain it in detail as I'm a bit new to this.
IMP: Although I haven't flashed the radio img, Wifi and things still seem to work. What could be the reason?

Hi... What OS do you run on your computer? How is your phone detected in device manager when you're in bootloader?
Do you have adb/fastboot up to date? If not download that zip here and try again, just in case...:

Unplug the phone from your computer. Reboot into bootloader... Now plug the phone back.
Is your phone detected as an unknown device in device manager? Or not recognized at all?

There is an unknown device called Android. But no files open up on my PC like it's supposed to. My device would read as Nexus 6P before the accident. Now, the PC reads it and I can view the files but that is only when it's in recovery or when it's booted up.
Is it caused by me accidentally wiping out the system files? I am not sure why exactly this is happening.
PS- After flashing the ROM, I lost root access. Would re-rooting fix it?

Change driver on windows via manual select driver and selecting from list.
to adb single sooner interface.
My device: 701->703 B212 KangVIP AJ Xposed

So... When in bootloader with "unknown device" in device manager... Right click on the unknown device and choose update driver...
Choose the option where you can select a driver on your computer and use the "USB driver" from the link I gave you before. (If you haven't done it yet )

@5.1 Thanks for the reply, but it doesn't work. I tried and the options I get are either troubleshoot or remove or properties. The update option isn't there. It is an unspecified driver.

If you don't understand. Well just google how to manually update drivers on Windows 8 and use the driver from the google USB driver link.

BUMP: Device is detected perfectly when it's on and it is also detected when it is in recovery mode. Only the bootloader doesn't seem to be detected. Could this be because of faulty drivers or is it because of some mess up of my phone files when I accidentally wiped system before?

I don't see any reason why wiping system could have caused such issue. (I could be wrong though...)
Have you tried to update the driver while in bootloader?
Here is a how-to in case you're not sure how to proceed:

Thanks, but do you mean the ADB driver shown under "Android Devices" in Device Manager? Because I updated it with the zip file and windows said it's up to date. Weird :/
@arifqur I have installed it, and it seems to control my phone well. But the problem is, how will I be able to use it to flash images to flashboot if the PC can't detect my phone in bootloader mode?
I'm really hoping this isn't a phone issue and it's a driver one. I even went to SDK Manager and re installed Google USB drivers thrice. I'm really wondering as to what could cause this. I think too that it's faulty drivers, for some reason.
