[Q] New Nexus 7 usb google driver problem - Nexus 7 (2013) General

I'm having trouble getting the proper usb drivers loaded so i can root my new Nexus 7. I downloaded the Android SDK, unzipped and expanded the google drivers, but my Vista computer keeps giving me an error like "windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it". It shows the driver as Android Composite ADB Interface. Please help!!

You need to disable your computer's driver signature enforcement.

1)by the way - delete your device from Laptop`s device manager and unplug and plug again cable to you Nexus
2)download last version of ADB and Fastboot
3)check at storage menu - preference - camera (not mtp)
4)enter in developer item in settings menu and check USB debug - Android `ll show your alert message with mac adress of you Laptop - you must accept it
!!! Do not try to use some other sofware for rooting (this is bad idea)- you must doing it in fastboot by myself!!!

[Q] Extreme Driver Fail

Hello Everyone,
----------------------------
Nexus 7 Driver Fail
----------------------------
I was Unable to install drivers on Windows XP (ADB and Fastboot Drivers do not load). Every step has failed and multiple drivers fail to install with Code 18 and 28. I’ve tried just about EVERY Tool Kit available out there and searched fourms, still no positive results. If anyone out there may have an answer please feel free to drop it in here, I greatly appreciate all your help. Thank you.
Here is a list of what I have done thus far:
- Rebooted the computer after uninstalling devices with USB Deview before
continuing on to the other steps
- Uninstalling and manually deleting driver from the registry
- Unplugging and repluging the device while watching
the device manager (The device shows up as other devices, Example: nexus and MTP)
- I tried disabling auto driver configuration by Simply pressing the "Disable Auto Driver Config" button and then
changing the settings accordingly
- Registry cleaning
- Removing and manually adding to windows driver folder
- Trying on different User accounts from Admin to guest
- Used Android SDK manual driver installation
- Unplugged the device and Launched USBDevice
- Used USBDeview to uninstall any;
- Android ADB Interface device's
- Samsung USB devices
- Google USB drivers
- ANYTHING else you see that resembles your Nexus.
- Looked for devices with Vendor ID's:"18d1"or"04e8"
I then right clicked these devices, and selected the option to” Uninstall Selected Devices"
-Downloaded The official Asus USB driver off of Asus actual support base
And it said the following: an error occurred during the installation of this device The Parameter is incorrect.
Have I missed this action:
Download the drivers from Asus and unpack them to their own directory.
Connect the N7 with USB debugging enabled in "developer options"
Open Device Manager
Locate the N7
(from here my xp knowledge is rusty)
Right click on the N7 and select properties
Find the option to install/update drivers, Take the option to specify the driver directory where you unpacked the download, ensure that include sub directories is ticked and that should install

I tried the same steps.
I even tried using Android SDK, Universal Naked driver
Still no luck
N7 running 4.2.1 stock

No ADB mode, driver issue?

I'm Italian, sorry for my English.
A few days ago I unlocked the bootloader via Toolkit, rooted and flashed the TWRP recovery _.
But I had hard difficulty:
After driver installed, I unlocked bootloader, enable debugging and then NOTHING!
In practice, the N7 was recognized by windows 7 64bit only in FastReboot mode ..
I tried in every way possible, deleted and reinstalled the driver 50 times, restored windows to a previous point, installed the drivers manually tried without toolkit, but how ADB just do not want to know.
For hours I was still with the bootloader unlocked but without root, until came to my rescue a friend with another notebook but same windows 7 64. Load the Toolkit, install the drivers and everything goes perfectly, I do everything in 5 minutes.
On my laptop there is always the issue driver ADB, in the future I still need my PC recognized the N7 in ADB, how can I do?
One thing that I think is not well understood is that there is no "Generic Class Driver" for ADB nor for fastboot...
... even though the very driver that works for one mode (or phone/tablet device) may be perfectly fine with a different device. The wire protocol for both fastboot and adb are extremely simplistic.
So, what that means is that if the Hardware ID used by the USB device endpoint registers on the bus with a different VendorID/ProductID, Windows will (correctly) not use a previously-installed ADB driver, or previously installed fastboot driver - even though they would probably work just fine.
Here is an example. The Nexus 7 registers the following Hardware ID when ADB debugging is turned on in the OS:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&REV_9999&MI_01
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&MI_01
On the other hand, if you are using TWRP, it's adbd daemon shows up on the PC as:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_9999
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
This means that you might need to install a different driver for using the ADB with the OS, and a different driver for ADB under TWRP - even though it is exactly the same hardware on the other end of the cable! In the absence of a generic class driver for a given USB endpoint, Windows tries to match drivers in it's local (& internet) database based on this VID/PID pair.
If you have a look at the [ADB/FB/APX Driver] Universal Naked Driver 0.72 thread - and download it and have a look at it's included "android_winusb.inf" file - you will see literally hundred of different VID/PID pairs in the driver's android_winusb.inf file in the installer package, corresponding to many hundreds of phones/tablets. Same driver with hundreds of devices listed as compatible.
In the past I recall taking the Google (SDK) USB driver, and manually editing into place matching VID/PID pairs for a HTC phone into the .inf file. It worked perfectly; I probably flashed that phone hundreds if not thousands of times using the Google Driver (My PC is a Windows 7 Pro x64 machine btw).
Anyhow, I have pulled this stunt twice now - once editing the .inf file for the Google Driver, and I did it once with the Universal Naked driver too. You can choose which driver you want to start with.
If you want to give it a roll, you can start with any of those three drivers:
- Google (SDK) USB driver
- XDA "Universal Naked" driver
- Asus Nexus 7 USB Driver (Look under Download)
Note that since you are using W7 x64, make sure that you add each new entries to the .inf file twice - once in the ".NTx86" section, and duplicated again in the ".NTamd64" section. When editing .INF files, make sure to use an editor which preserves simple text file formatting - use "notepad", not "wordpad"
If you want a reference for what values to use, see the bottom end of this post. You should see exactly these same values in your Device Manager, however.
Note that if you see the device show up in the Device Manager as being correctly identified and marked as "working normally" - but it doesn't work - you should probably remove that driver and re-install from a different driver package.
This would certainly be the case for any drivers you saw associating with VID/PID pairs that look like:
VID_18D1&PID_4E40 bootloader/fastboot
VID_18D1&PID_4E41 single adb
VID_18D1&PID_4E42*&MI_01 composite adb
VID_0955&PID_7330 avx mode
VID_18D1&PID_D001 adb in TWRP (maybe CWM too, I didn't check)
That's a lot to throw at you, especially with Italian <=> English in the mix.
Feel free to ask questions.

Hello,
I tried to follow your advice but I have not solved.
I'll explain what I did, so you can correct me.
-Uninstalled previous drivers (from device manager, control panel)
-Restart the PC
-Modified the inf file. Package Asus Nexus 7 USB driver (ntx86 and NTamd64 sections) attach screenshots
-Linked N7 (usb debugging actived)
-Found portable device in device manager, update drivers manually from the Nexus 7 Asus USB drivers
I tried to change also too XDA "Universal Naked" driver by following the same procedure.
I tried to create another account on my pc, but no ADB!

Did you update to 4.2.2?
The is something to do with adb in that update, needing a password or something. I am not sure but if you did update you might want to check that.

Use "Google USB drivers" you get after you install from here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Its drivers work with 4.2.2
I got 4.2.2. rooted with ADB working now via only this and no other method
No problem with adb in 4.2.2... I tested yesterday (no need psw too...)

Is this the only device which shows up in the device manager? The "Portable Device" is either the MTP or PTP endpoint - not ADB. The latter (adb) should show up elsewhere in the device manager.
You should certainly NOT be trying to install fastboot/adb driver on MTP/PTP endpoints!
I think perhaps I am not understanding because I am guessing at certain details.
Q1) Do the drivers appear to install correctly?
Q2) When you have the N7 in the corresponding mode - whether or not you observe (device manager) "working normally" or "unknown device" - do you see the following Hardware IDs showing up in the device manager?
Bootloader Fastboot Mode:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E40&REV_0000
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E40
OS adb:
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&REV_9999&MI_01
USB\VID_18D1&PID_4E42&MI_01
TWRP adb (Possibly also CWM adb, I haven't checked it) :
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_9999
USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
Q3) I presume you went through the same install sequence on your PC that succeeded on the other laptop - in the event the problem is a hardware problem, did you try a different cable or USB port on your PC?
Q4) When you remove drivers, are you requesting that the drivers be removed from the PC?
The 4.2.2 authentication issue might be an issue (although I suspect this is a adb program version issue, not a driver version issue. In any event, it wouldn't effect the behavior of adb in TWRP/CWM.
Sorry for all the questions.

When the drivers are not installed and I connect to pc N7, is only recognized as a portable device, then later recognized as Google Nexus 7.
To install the drivers (modified as described) I click reinstall driver, then later recognized (if connected to pc in android mode, with usb debugging actived) as Android Device in another voice, ADB interface. But is not recognized by the toolkit under adb devices, and even when I try using cmd.
1-When I install the drivers. seem to be installed correctly.
2-Sorry, where can I find Hardware IDs in Device Manager? What is the difference between OS adb and TRWP adb?
3 - In other pc (with same N7, same cable, same driver, same toolkit) I had no problems. I tried to change only the USB port.
4-I uninstall the driver from device manager (uninstall voice) and ask to be also uninstalled software from the PC
In some Italian forum, I found people with the same problems.
Solved by formatting PC. I would not do that ...
Thanks for your help, sorry for my English and my limited skills
AW: No ADB mode, driver issue?
Try to download the latest Android SDK and try to connect with that adb version. Adb with version < 1.0.31 will not work correctly with Android 4.2.2.

I tried sdk but I have not solved.
I use Android 4.2.1. I'm having problems with the update! I can not update OTA (N7 stuck under the impending reboot). I also tried to download the zip file to upgrade the memory and flash it from recovery but the installation is not completed (error 7 build.prop).
I also tried to flash the factory image 4.2.1 (keeping userdata) and start again. Nothing, same mistakes!
Too many problems!

(Note I attached some pictures below)
From the Device Manager:
- Select the Device in question by right-clicking. Choose "Properties"
- A window with three tabs will appear: General, Driver, and Details. Select Details
- The "Property" combo-box-selector has 20 or 30 items - the 2nd one in the list is Hardware Ids. I attached two pictures from Win7-Pro-x64 (below)
But note as I said before: You should NOT be seeing the ADB endpoint under "Portable Devices" - if ADB Debugging is turned on in the OS, you should see it under "Android Phone" or something similar. In any event, the hardware Ids will identify it exactly

Well, as far as the behavior of the USB driver on the PC, almost nothing. Unfortunately - for better or for worse - both TeamWin (TWRP) and CWM authors put their ADB interface on the bus with the VID/PID pair of USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001, whereas the OS puts all its USB interfaces on 18D1/4Exx.
So, even if you get a driver installed for the OS "adb" mode (say by using the Google SDK USB driver or the Asus Nexus 7 driver), it won't work for the custom recovery... unless you fix up the driver installer package to have the matching VID/PID pairs (18D1/D001) in the .INF file for that driver.
I think folks find this confusing - they think, "wait, I have a ADB driver installed" - why does it not work?
OK, there are a couple more things to try (at least before I give up). Roughly they try to answer these questions:
Q1) Is this a toolkit issue, or a driver issue?
Q2) Is it a prior driver you installed that you are not observing that is causing the problem?
The first one (Q1) is easiest to diagnose: when your PC Device Manager indicates that a device is "working normally" - AND THE VID/PID ID MATCHES WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT FOR THE MODE THE TABLET IS IN (regular OS, recovery boot, fastboot mode), can you communicate with the device from the Windows command line? e.g.,
Code:
C:\foo> cd C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory
C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory> fastboot devices
or
C:\blahblah\sdk-platform-tools-directory> adb devices
If you can communicate with the tablet from the command line - your device ID will be printed by the above commands, then you don't have a driver problem at all - there is something screwy about the way your toolkit is installed.
OK, Q2 -
When Windows installs a driver, it caches it into a kind of database. I suppose it is possible that a prior driver installation might be causing trouble. You can observe - from the device manager - all the drivers that are installed - even for devices that are not currently connected to your computer.
This is done by setting the "devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1" environment variable. It can be done semi-permanently this way, or for a single invocation of the device manager this way..
See the third image attached (devmgr-all-devices.jpg ) - it is my computer in that "show all devices" mode. See all that rubbish in there? It's from other Android devices (HTC, Samsung, etc).
You can walk through each one of those - even the devices that are not currently attached - and inspect the VID/PID pair to see if they happen to match the values that you are expecting to see for the different operating modes on the Nexus 7. I'll leave it up to you whether you want to do this or not; it is a bit tedious. Just don't start deleting drivers willy-nilly if you don't know what they are associated with.

How to regain mtp access for usb file transfers

Many nexus 7 (and I believe nexus 5) users have had the annoying problem of losing the ability of their windows pc recognizing the nexus as a mtp device. In my case this happens every time I have to root the device. Something about installing the necessary adb drivers seems to mess up the ability of Windows 7 to install the correct driver for mtp access. Typically, the nexus will connect in ptp (camera) mode but not ptp. Updating the android phone driver just doesn't change anything. I tried all the recommended steps but nothing worked till now. Here is what worked.
After rooting, my Windows device manager showed only one entry related to the nexus 7. It was an entry for "android phone" and within it was an entry for "Google nexus ADB interface".
**there was NO entry for "portable devices" **
1. In device manager, with the nexus connected via usb cable, I clicked on the "Google nexus ADB interface" (inside android phone entry) and selected to update the driver, then selected "browse my computer for driver software", chose "c:\Windows" and - this is what is different - selected **let me pick.... **
2. The resulting options included 2 choices, but no mtp option, and I selected "Google nexus ADB interface"
3. When it installed, suddenly "portable devices" appeared in the Windows device manager with nexus 7 in it !! But with the yellow error symbol.
4. Next, I right clicked on the "portable devices /Nexus 7" entry and updated it as usual. Yellow error icon disappeared and now mtp works fine.
The important points are that
- standard 'update the driver' does not restore the mtp driver (perhaps because the correct Windows driver is in a different location and has an older date), but selecting one of the 2 offered choices in **let me pick.... ** within the c:\Windows\ directory worked to recreate the entry for "portable devices" and when that was updated, mtp connection was restored and I could copy and transfer files via usb cable!
Hope this helps someone else. Thank you Vyom for verifying this worked and refining my description to make it more precise.
For me turning off adb and reconnecting the cable fix the issue. Try it and report back.
Please ignore my spelling mistakes. English is not my native language.
Yes, but I now have both abd and mtp.
My rooted Nexus 7 (2012) previously had no problems connecting to my Windows 7 computer and I was able to transfer files via the USB without any problems. After installing Android 4.4, I am only able to get it to connect via the PTP option (camera files only). I downloaded the latest Nexus 7 driver from Asus' web site and tried the above step to no avail. After several hours of eye strain from perusing the forums, it's time to ask the experts. Thanks in advance
EDIT: Finally got it to work after following the instructions on this thread: (Took several tries)

After using Nexus Root Toolkit cannot connect in regular USB mode

I have used Nexus Root Toolkit twice successfully on two different computer, but on both occasions that has left the computer unable to connect to the Nexus 10 outside debugging mode.
I think it is "Step 1" in the driver install guide that tells me to:
2.) Launch Device Manager using the button bellow.
- Identify whatever device resembles your Nexus and right click it
- Select 'Uninstall'
- Check the box for 'Delete the driver software for this device'
- Select 'OK'
3.) Unplug your device and Launch USBDeview using the button bellow
- Use USBDeview to uninstall any;
- Android ADB Interface device's,
- Samsung USB devices,
- Google USB drivers
- ... or ANYTHING else you see that resembles your Nexus.
- In particular look for devices with Vendor ID
- "18d1" or... "04e8"
- Simply right click these devices, and select the option to:
- "Uninstall Selected Devices"
Click to expand...

After doing this i can no longer connect the Nexus 10 as usb drive or/MTP. If i connect it, it simply says charging, and the Windows device manager doesn't list any new devices at all. Its like it isn't connected at all. If i enable usb debugging, i can use Nexus Root Toolkit without problem.
The computer in question is running Windows 8.1, and i first installed the Universal drivers that didn't work, and then got it to work with RAW drivers.
I assume that something got uninstalled that shouldn't have been, but i don't know what. Any help is appreciated, i don't fancy reinstalling windows

USB driver update failed

Hi
I am a new user for nexus 6p, For the first time I connected my device to Computer running windows 10 updated. My laptop didn't detect the usb and the driver is not installed properly, I tried downloading the latest usb driver but it didnt help , While searching for the driver folder it throws
Windows was unable to install your unkown drive
You can get the USB drivers straight from Google and try to uninstall/reinstall or download Wugfresh's NRT. There is very good driver installation tool and test to confirm you get both USB and fastboot drivers installed properly. Just follow the "Full Driver Installation Guide"

Hi... Do you have ADB enabled in developer options? If you don't have developer options enabled, go in: settings>about phone and type 7 times on the build number, then go back in settings > developer options and enable "android debugging".
Plug your N6 on your computer, check your phone screen and allow press ok when it asks to "allow USB debugging".
Does it change something? Is your N6 recognized in device manager? Does the driver updates?
...
So My puter recognizes my phone fine....
Pop opened the configuration and General tab says:
This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)
A service installation section in this INF is invalid.
To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver.
I try and update the driver using the "Let the puter search" feature and it finds one and tells me:
Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
MPE Device
A service installation section in this INF is invalid.
If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software.
This is all AFTER I downloaded the latest Google USB drivers and unzipped them.
Phone is set to MTP mode and debugging mode is unlocked and usb debugging is on.
No Go.
