Windows cant find a driver for the phone, how do you use this on Windows?
You can install the drivers as part of the Android SDK, or you could search this forum for drivers, or you could goto the Development section and download mskip's Galaxy Nexus 4 Toolkit and install the drivers from there.

installed the drivers and Windows sees it as an Android ADB device but it doesnt mount anything. How do I transfer files over USB?
I extracted the drivers from the Android SDK and posted it up. Check my sig for the link.
tried those too and its still not mounting anything
Windows 7 detected my phone without any drivers installed and I was able to mount the internal storage. The only thing the sdk drivers allow for are adb and fastboot interfacing, so they shouldn't be needed if all you are trying to do is mount the device.
try different usb port my pc did that at first.
I'm not sure why, but it worked for me on windows 7 and automatically updated the drivers. The weird thing is that adb recognizes the nexus 4 as a Samsung phone

Same issue here until I switched to the cable that came with the phone and it worked. Maybe just a fluke, not sure.

Sorry, misread your post. Try restarting, try a different USB port, try a different cable. Also, make sure MTP mode is enabled on your phone (Settings > Storage > Menu > then check Media Device).

Have you found a solution yet? To transfer files from my PC to the phone, I have to make sure debugging is turned off and connect with MTP mode. But if I want to use ADB, I need to turn debugging on which loses the PC's ability to see the phone at all unless I connect in PTP mode. All a bit weird but at least it works. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers?
Phone mounts fine on 2 different computers, its something with my computer.
Its not the USB cable, tried different ports, I tried USB debugging on and off, camera mode and MTP. Device manager sees it as a Nexus 4 but says the drivers didnt install.
So my next question is why isnt Windows installing the drivers properly?
i have got two nexus 4
and with one of them i am not able to connect it to my main computer (with a second computer it works).
With the other nexus 4 i have no problems on any computer...
os is alway win 7.
just linking and sharing a similar thread [Q]Computer won't recognize phone? which covers same/similar issue and resolution.
I'm using the Asus Google Nexus ToolKit V3.8.2 (donated version).
With my first N7 I was able to unlock and root.
Now I exchanged it against the N7 3G (HSPA+). I was able to unlock the device and able to install the bootloader 3.34. But root does not work. I think it is because ADB does not recognize the tablet.
What happens:
1.) the start screen of the ToolKit does not show the serial in the adb device list (If I restart the tablet in fastmode it list the serial in fastmode device list)
2.) if I start the Root and the ToolKit wants to reboot in Fastboot Mode it says "Waiting for adb Mode".
3.) If I restart on my own in Fastboot Mode and start the Root procedure then it reboots the device and says "Procedure will continue in 20 seconds Waiting for USB debugging to be enabled". It does not help to re-activate the usb debugging mode and it doesn't help to re-connect the usb cable.
4.) I started cmd and changed to the "Google Nexus 7 ToolKit" folder to call "adb-toolkit devices". But it does not show any device. adb-toolkit kill-server and start-server doesn't help. usb reconnect doesn't help.
P.S. As I'm a new member I'm not able to post inside the official support thread, sorry.
It could be a driver issue on the pc..
try this
download a pc app called usbdview . Do a google search to find it..
Run the program on the pc without the nexus plugged in. Delete all adb/ usb devices that you do not have physically plugged into your computer.
Plug in the nexus 7 refresh the list . Delete what ever comes up for the nexus 7..
Reboot the computer WITH the nexus not connected..
Install the NEXUS DRIVERS.. plug in the nexus and the computer should find the device as if its the first time used.
Try you tool kit again...
Sometimes when adb is started and stopped if there are several versions Windows can be confused and not stop the right driver but start a older version instead VERY Common windows usb issue. This works with any USB Trouble shooting for devices not just Android...
Good LUCK ..
It's pretty obvious that you need to install the correct drivers for the Nexus 7 HSPA+.
I'm not the lowest of the low, but I am the slowest of the slow.

The nexus drives are a One driver for all Nexus Devices... This should only be a issue if there are multiple copies of usb adb in the windows registry . The usb drivers need to be removed then re installed or will just create more conflict. Usb Is NOT SO PLUG AND PLAY as it was intended.. Sometimes just plugging a usb device from one usb port to another in some computers can cause windows to install another copy of the driver. This is mostly on systems with a usb hub then a usb 2.o hub on a different port.. and so on.

This could it be. But I found a very simple solution:
stackoverflow.com/a/11991653/318765
When the Nexus 7 is plugged in there is a persistent notification that indicates "CONNECT AS / Media Device (MTP)". In this state adb devices will not show the Nexus, or undoubtedly any other device. Not exactly obvious, but if you select the second option "Camera (PTP)" the device is available for debugging (the lesson is ignore the camera, and focus on the protocol PTP).
This choice is persistent, and I'm guessing that with a band new device it will connect as MTP until told otherwise.

After several hours of frustration, I'm just going to ask.
I have USB debugging enabled. When I plug in the Nexus 4 Windows auto installs drivers for MTP.
It's listed under portable devices in device manager. I am trying to uninstall the driver and install the Naked driver. But as soon as I uninstall in device manager, Windows reinstalls, despite me having turned off auto-installation of drivers. I am not able to use the advanced method listed here http://www.addictivetips.com/window...utomatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista because gpedit.msc doesn't exist for Home users.
I have unplugged the device and manually put it into Fastboot and plugged it in. Windows does not try to autoinstall drivers. I am able to install Naked drivers and the device appears as "Android Phone" in device manager.
How can I proceed?

The problem is that Windows is auto-installing the driver as soon as I uninstall it from device manager. I have this setting disabled in Device Installation Settings but nevertheless it continues auto-installing.

When you plug in your n4 in your pc, does it allow you to open the folder for your phone. If it does the drivers are installed. Mine n4 did the same as you when I plugged it in my PC, and did show Android in the device manager.
Use the nexus 4 toolkit to do it.

It's showing up as portable device, not as Android when MTP is connected. If I manually boot into fastboot, and connect to PC it will show as Android.
Nexus 4 toolkit doesn't work. When I connect the device, it still only shows up as MTP device connected.
How can I stop the "Nexus 4" driver from auto installing the MTP driver?

You could try this installer. If a prompt ever says not to install a driver just do it anyway.

I was having the same issues, toolkit didnt work, auto kept auto installing MTP only, junefabrics.com didn't work by itself, LG drivers didn't work. finally I tried the drivers in sig and adb was installed but the tool kit still didn't recognize it. I ran the one from junefabrics.com after that and hit no to not reinstall the drivers when it asks, but it's hanging when installing pdanet on my phone.

im in the same boat
I'm having these same issues. Very frustrating.
Just fixed the problem by following the directions in this post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34154052&postcount=7
His instructions about cmd prompt didn't work for me, so in device manager I selected View -> Show Hidden Devices.
I removed all android, nexus, other android phones and then reinstalled the drivers via the toolkit. Seems to be working so far!
The MTP driver will always install as that's nothing to do with adb. If you open Device Manager it should have the other option - you then manually install the driver by browsing the the drivers folder when using the 'Update driver' option in the right-click menu when you click on it in Device Manager

tried pda but failed
its caused by the android 4.2.2 update...
For anyone still having problems, these are the steps I followed that fixed it for me. (After updating to the latest sdk version and downloading the google usb driver)
1. Uninstalled the driver from Device Manager
2. Let it automatically install the generic 'MTP device driver'
3. Right clicked on the new device and selected 'Update Driver'
4. Selected 'Have Disk' and pointed it to [android-sdk-dir]\extras\google
5. Watched an 'ADB' driver install.
6. Opened Eclipse to successfully run on my N4.
Guys, I know i am repeating again the question but despite reading 15-20 posts and uncountable articles, I am still not able to get my nexus 7 working with the Windows XP SP3.
1) To start with, I downloaded the google drivers from ASUS and the MTP Porting Kit from microsoft.When i plug in the device with USB Debugging on, Windows shows 3 new devices- NEXUS 7 & Android ADB Interface.. and ofcourse Windows XP can not find the drivers for any. So i open the device manager and it shows Nexus 7 under unidentified devices. I install the drivers for ADB interface (the ones i downloaded from Asus) and the device becomes ready to use. But there is no option to browse the device from my computer or portable devices. Then i switch the debugging on, and now there is a new device- MTP under unidentified devices. Then i install the MTP Porting Kit, but the MTP device still shows a problem with the driver.
2) The second part of the problem is that all this did not work and even my WMP11 does not recognise the Nexus 7.
The device is just connected and charging!!! What am i doing wrong here???

I had a lot of problems myself getting Windows XP to work with my Nexus 7 as well... eventually I discovered that installing the latest version of Windows Media Player fixed the problem.
I wrote up a post on this issue on another forum (Sorry, XDA - this was before I discovered you guys), back in December of last year.
Anyway, here is my original post...
http://www.nexus7nexus10.com/forum/nexus-7-help/2600-cannot-connect-pc-2.html#post36608
(Actually, this whole thread is worth reading.)
The only nuisance factor is having to remember to re-enable USB debugging (Titanium Backup needs USB debugging enabled, and complains if itsn't) AFTER I've run some MTP Windows XP related file backups (USB debugging needs to be disabled, or MTP won't work)...
....or at least that is my experience.
Hope this is of some use.

Hello guys,
I have the same issue on windows XP with Nexus 7. I tried everything what was suggested and nothing is working.
I have Windows XP SP3 with WMP11 and MTP porting kit installed as well. the device is recognized and driver is instaled fine. But it's not visible on "my computer" in MTP mode. I tried to turn on usb debugging and still device is invisible in windows explorer, the same is when usb debugging is turoned off.
When device is in PTP mode it appears in "my computer" and i'm able to browse it and see all pictures and photos.
How can i browse my device in MTP mode and copy files there? Please reply if anybody knows what to do to fix this issue.
Thank you.

Recently got a 2012 Nexus 7 from a retailer selling this model with updated Android at very attractive price, and initially able to connect to computer so promptly rooted the device with the Nexus Root Toolkit from Wugfresh Development (in this forum), afterwards had same problems with not being able to read / transfer files.
Tried every fix I could find in other threads, and although device manager saying that connected as 'ADB Device' with debugging on, or 'Google Nexus 7 ADB Device' with MTP on and debugging off, still stuck with no access.
Looking closer at the MTP configuration ('Google Nexus 7 ADB Device') under device manager noticed that details listed manufacturer as 'ClockWorkMod' , and eventually that this originated within a Windows\Inf file titled 'oem60'.
I cut and pasted the 'oem60' file to another directory (to keep it safe just in case this upset something else) then on reconnecting the Nexus 7 as MPT with debugging off, device manager found and installed the correct driver at last. Now able to see and transfer files to / from it.
Presumably could alter the relevant lines in the 'oem60' file, which aren't hard to find, and put it back to original directory, but my other devices also working fine so not done so as yet.

Hello. Im new to the Nexus 10. I downloaded skipsoft Android toolkit, installed adb drivers in the package and rooted the Nexus and installed recovery..it was easy using the toolkit. So the ADB drivers must have worked- at least in the environment it is used in to do these things. But these drivers dont work to transfer files between the nexus and the computer running winxp. I have USB debugging and PTP, have tried every other dirver package that has been mentioned on all available forums, have tried different usb ports, different cables etc. n my computer the device is recognised as a Nexus 10 but clicking on it gives a blank page, so cannot see the Nexux files. WTF this is driving me mad. Any ideas?
Re
Hi Ghosta,
Are you using a USB 3 port? as i have had many strange issues with these the ports. The issue is caused by one of the intel drivers cant remember exactly which way but there is no easy way to fix this. If this is your issues i would try and find if you have a USB 2.1 port you can use or the Esata ports on laptops tend to be usb 2.1 inside...even though they dont look like it haha
Hope this helps

Thanks for the replies and suggestions. All shows up OK in device manager, the device is not password protected, and the laptop has usb2 ports. I had another try today, after connecting the nexus it shows up in my computer as a camera, labelled nexus 10, with the camera icon. When I click on the icon it opens a special folder, must be a camera folder and the camera and scanner wizard starts. After a while it detects the photos on the nexus ( I have loaded a lot on it via USB otg using flash drive ), but thumbnails of the photos are not downloaded as I usually see when I connect a camera. The wizard downloads photos back to the computer, but each photo is about 18 kB instead of the 2 mb they originally were. So it appears a connection is happening, but a very strange one. I don't like to be beaten on problems like this one, but searching the net has not given me any answers, and I don't understand the android system well enough to know what to try next.
I think your device is working. If you connect it up as it now is and then go into Settings > Storage and tap the top RH corner menu you get the USB Computer Connection and select that and change it to MTP you should find it is now visible in My Computer or after auto install of the driver it will be visible. I'm brain dead - you said you had a PTP connection!

No PTP conection or MTP connection either. The Nexus also shows up in Device Manger under Imaging Devices when USB deugging is on, which is causing the camera and scanner wizard to start, although it doesnt work properly. When i disable it nothing happens at all. No idea where to go from here.

Have you tried following the driver install guide from Wug's toolkit? I've never used Skipsoft's but if it doesn't have you delete old drivers properly it's possible there's some old or corrupted driver sticking around from all the installs you've done. If you follow Wug's guide exactly you should end up with the only the correct drivers installed. Also, what ROM and kernel are you using? It's possible the issue is there.

I used a program called usbdeview to uninstall every USB driver with an "android" or "adb" description which should have cleaned up my drivers? Then after reinstalling drivers I tried again no difference. I ran android-tools and can push and pull files to and from the computer and nexus, (from command line) so I believe I have eliminated hardware problems and software problems on the nexus. This leaves the computer, which works perfectly with my other android devices running 4.1.1.
Just in case this helps. In usbdeview I have 5 nexus 10 entries. They all have the vendor id of Google 18d1 and a unique Product ID . Which driver connects is related to the device settings:
PID Device settings
4ee1 MTP
4ee2 MTP + USB debugging
4ee5 PTP
4ee6 PTP + USB debugging
d002 USB debugging
With the device connected I can change settings and see the change in connected driver in USBDeview.

This info does provide me with some way forward. With USB , when connected ptp I have a nexus 10 USB composite device and a nexus 10 digital still camera connected with the green light in USB deview, and also a blank device name, connected, description android composite device with a purple light. I'm guessing purple means not working. But changing drivers does nothing to change the purple light. Switching to mpt gives an additional blank name Google nexus adb interface also with purple light shown as connected. All connected devices show vendor 18d1. Drivers tried 1) clockworkmod (supplied with skipsoft); 2) naked drivers 3) Google drivers. Any clues what to try next?
2 things to check. I just tried running usbdeview from Wug's toolkit. It was v2.0 and wasn't the same as the version I have installed v2.3 - and there have been a significant number of changes. If you have XP pro x64 then you must use the x64 version of usbdeview - again I think Wug's may only ship with 32 bit usbdeview http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html You will also find an explanation of the coloured radio buttons.
If you find you need to update usbdeview then I would suggest you uninstall the device drivers (instructions in Wug's toolkit?) then new drivers from http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#top and follow the linked install instructions.

I gave up completely on this, and connect via wifi using ES file explorer. I bought my wife a new tablet an Acer Aconia A1-830 and it has the same problems, impossible to connect via ADB, with exactly the same symptoms.

Obviously an Android generated problem that arose when 4.2 was released and on which has no fix.
