Device descriptor request failed (Code 45) - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm about to go crazy about this.
I can't get my computer recognize my Nexus 4 (which is running CyanogenMod 13, Android 6.0.1).
The phone doesn't show anything when I connect it to PC (it just says 'charging slowly'). However, the PC does show the following error: Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
I've trying almost everything:
Uninstall the device driver (from Device Manager) and reconnect the phone again
Restart phone and PC
Try different USB cable / port
Try different computer
Download latest Google USB Driver and try to update the driver with the error (which resulted in "your driver is up-to-date message")
Connect the phone in recovery mode and bootloader mode
Connect the phone in recovery mode with MTP enabled (via TWRP recovery)
My PC is running Windows 10.
Please help me out!

Try to install adb. Does adb and/or fastboot recognize your device?

No.
Currently, helplessly, I'm transferring the photos etc. from my device via adb over network, which does work as a matter of fact. But via USB - nothing =\

You could try connecting it to another computer, if you have access to one. That way we can find out if it is a phone problem or computer problem.

Halp! Windows 8.1 upgrade at war with n4

Hi,
I had win 8 in which I was successfully able to do everything with my n4 (adb connections were good and so was MPT). I updated to win 8.1 and now it's derping out. ADB drivers seem fine. I tested it by simply running adb shell in cmd prompt, but even though my device is connected, it says that it's unable to find device.
Whats more important to me is that the device is not showing up in my computer. Although windows plays the usual usb connection sound. I'm also able to see it has detected my device as Nexus 4 is under the unknown device category. How can I fix this. I relly need to transfer a few things between the comp and phone, and it kinda sucks at the moment.

Just format it and install Ubuntu!!!
lol, just jocking. if adb is working you don't need it to recognize it. You can just use adb push/adb pull, but anyway.. did u try to enable debugging?
It means something has derped with the mtp driver
Open up device manager
You will see your nexus 4 with a yellow exclamation mark next to it
Right click and update driver
Manually choose
Then you will have to scroll through the list and find the mtp device (I can't remember of the top of my head exactly which headers it is under)

Connect your Nexus 4 in USB debuggin mode and uninstall your current driver in device manager checking the 'delete the driver software' option.
Download Universal Naked Driver: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875
Reboot Windows 8 into advance mode and select to disable driver signature: PC Settings -> Updates and recovery -> Recovery -> Advance startup -> select F7 option at the selection menu when you see it
Reconnect Nexus 4 and install it with UND driver.
Thanks all! I just uninstalled the current drivers and reconnected the device. Windows picked up on the right drivers. All ok!

Are you using the cable that came with the phone, use usb 2.0 ports, not 3.0. And try different usb ports, the ones on the back of the pc not the front. That's all I can think of

What I have tried:
Using 3 different cables, all works with other phones.
Using other computers both Windows and Mac.
Tried both Fastboot mode and adb sideload in recovery
Replaced the whole usb flex cable inside the phone
Installing a bunch of drivers adb/usb
still nothing, no connection whatsoever even with the BRAND NEW usb flex cable

USB Connection Trouble: MTP and OTG is not working ADB connection is working

I already tryied:
developer mode usb debugging on and off
different cable
diffrent usb port
different computer Win7 x32, Win 7 x64 and Win10 x64
I also tried diffrent rom
xiaomi.eu_multi_HM2014813_5.9.18_v7-4.4
xiaomi.eu_multi_HM2014813_V6.5.2.0.KHJCNCD_v6-4.4
xiaomi.eu_multi_HM2014813_V6.6.3.0.KHJCNCF_v6-4.4
xiaomi.eu_multi_HM2014813_V7.0.9.0.KHJCNCI_v7-4.4
The strange thing is that I can comunicate with the phone, wehn it is in fastboot mode.
I was able to connect the phone to the computer and overwrite the recovery image wit cwm.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
EDIT//
Now I somehow managed to get acces to the phone by installing the xiami_usb_driver (http://bigota.d.miui.com/tools/xiaomi_usb_driver.rar)
but everytime I disconnect and connect the device it shows up in device manager as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), then I have to uninstall this driver and scan for HW changes
this is very inconvenient but connecting devices via OTG does not work at all
and there is still a strange USB Device showning up in the task manager
//edit
Could it be possible that the device descriptor got lost. Is there anything I can do?
You better start praying
For sure you've tried all what is possible I guess
(Try With a custom ROM) like cyanogenmod
But you can update the driver through windows itself
Errrm manage and copy files through Mi PC Suite
Errrm use adb comands in twrp (almos useless)

I have a second device also a HM2014813 and working without a problem. I made a full backup with TWRP (http://en.miui.com/thread-120001-1-1.html) and restored it on my troublemaking device. USB connection is still only possible, whenn I first uninstall the Unknown Device from device manager:
furthermore the android is telling me that the I have an Invalid Devce ID: null
Is there anything I can do to enable this OTG and correct the usb device id?

[Q]PC cannot identify Nexus 7, no driver? Charging when USB is connected

I recently bought a Nexus 7 (2012 - WiFi Version) on eB*y, the Device is Rooted, ROM is CyanogenMod-NIGHTLY-Grouper.
When i tryed to connect the Nexus 7 with my Laptop and PC it started to charge (but verry, verry slow) and i Windows says that the USB device cannot be identified (also i cannot install drivers for it becaus it cannot be identified) Fail-Code is: 43. I tryed it on Win7 Desktop PC and on a Win10 Laptop but no chance.
Also i tryed to install a Factory ROM via Recovery Mode (from SD Card) it says: Installation aborted.
I really dont know what to do now? I think it is the USB Flex Cable, what do you guys think?
Sorry for my bad English.
Hope someone can help me here.
On your Nexus 7, search for a setting called USB connections and ensure MTP is checked.
On your windows PC, Control Panel > Device Manager, go to your broken Nexus device, right click and update the driver for it... Select you want to install the driver yourself. Then it will ask you to browse to the driver, but underneath that you will have another selection along the lines, "select from common driver list". From there, look under portable devices and select either MTP Storage or MTP USB Storage. I had the same problem and only MTP USB Storage works for me.
For ADB and Fastboot stuff... Search these forums.
Hope that helps.

Don't forget to try other USB cables.
Just use the Nexus Root Toolkit and follow the easy wizard to completely setup the N7 on your PC:

USB Debugging can't be used on my Mi A1

Hello people, I've a weird problem on my device.
Yesterday everything was ok. I've enabled USB debugging and I've used "adb" from terminal without issues.
Today, I can't connect with adb anymore.
If I use adb devices I can't see my device. If I try to Enable USB Debugging on my device, for a very short moment (about 2 seconds) I can see my device connected, then it disconnects.
I noticed this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That icon appears for 2 seconds after I disable and re-enable USB debugging, then it disappears (of course the notification for USB connection appears for 2 seconds then disappears).
I've tried everything:
different cables
different PC and Mac
I've removed adb_keys from /data/misc/adb
I've removed adb kesy from .android folder on my PC/Mac
I've revoked USB authorisation
Nothing.
Is there a saint can help me fix this?
I don't want to hard reset device again.
Thanks,
ghale
PS: I don't know if it's important, but in Fastboot mode, I can list device with fastboot devices command.

How you remove or uninstall ADB Driver
Well, on Mac it's very simple, just download new adb and fastboot from Android developer portal and replace old ones.
No drivers needed. On pc is a bit different.
Same problem with Mi6. Did u fix it?
Did you install Cerberus?
