I have recently updated my drivers and I am unable to connect to my Nexus 4.
The nexus is on 5.1. I'm using Windows 7. My HTC desire can be seen listed in adb devices.
I have tried re-installing the drivers. The automatic driver installation installs v7.0.0.1. I don't know if this is the latest version as when I point the installer at \extras\google it says that the current driver is up-to-date.
The phone is in debugging mode, and I have also tried different USB ports on the computer.
Try to manually change/assign the driver in the Device Manager.
Go to Device Manager - Android Device.
Select whatever entry you can find here, then choose:
Update Driver - Browse my computer for driver Software - Let me pick from a List...
Here you should be able to select the proper driver (unticking "Show compatible hardware" should bring some more choices.
If it doesn't work you might want to try using the Universal adb driver (it will be at the "ClockworkMod" manufacturer in the device maanger).
Last but not least, sometimes the issue can be resolved by an adb restart. Just do a adb kill-server, then check again for your device using adb devices
Setting the phone to connect as camera made it show up on adb devices.
I am unable to install the OEM drivers for android debugging on windows 8.1 64 bit OS. I have done following steps so far.
Downloaded the android usb drivers from SDK manager. Placed under D drive Android SDK directory. Enabled the USB debugging on my phone via developer options.
Path of drivers on my computer:
D:\Program Files\Android\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
I also made changes as suggested at few places to enable the installation of unsigned drivers on windows 8.1 (chosen step 7 in advance system settings)
My phone which runs 4.2.2 android version is detected on my system (connected as media device). I also tried as PTP camera but no luck.
Finally the problem. When I go to device manager and do an update driver, i select the option to look for driver on my computer. I gave the path under D drive as above. When I click on next windows says "can not find the driver".
Please help me , I am unable to understand what could be the problem
Thanks

In windows 8.1, follow the below given steps to install oem drivers for your device:
Right click on my computer.
Choose properties.
Select device manager.
In device manager, look for your device name in list of unidentified devices.
Select "Update Driver Software"
Choose "Browse My Computer for Driver Software"
Choose "Let me pick from a list of devices"
Select all devices
Select have cd option
Browse to the google usb driver folder and select winusb.inf
Click next until the drivers are installed.
OK, just for the sake of beginners like me who came across this issue. I was able to resolve this by downloading USB drivers from your supported device website. For me I had MotoG so i went to motorola website and downloaded the motorola device manager which installed the relevant usb drivers. Immediately everything went fine, and i was able to run app on my device using android studio.
I am new to Android development and I am trying to get a test app onto my phone. My phone is an LG G3, and I am developing on Windows 8. Following the official tutorial,I have installed the android sdk, and can run ant debug. However, when I run adb install bin/MyFirstApp-debug.apk it just says
error: device not found
error: device not found
error: device not found
- waiting for device -
I went to the OEM USB Drivers page, got the usb driver for my model, installed it through the installer provided by LG, and restarted my computer. Still getting the message.
When I try to update the drivers through the Windows 8 Device Manager, it says the drivers are up to date. I have also tried different combinations of turning both developer mode and usb debuggin on and off.
I have also tried setting up my Macbook as a development environment, but I still get the same error at this step, despite the documentation saying "If you're developing on Mac OS X, it just works. Skip this step." in reference to installing USB drivers.
Does your device show up in Windows Explorer? If not, this works in Windows 7. Try:
Start -> Computer (right click) -> Manage ->Device Manager -> Android Device -> Android Composite ADB Interface (Right click) -> Update Device Driver -> Browse My Computer for Driver Software -> Let me pick from list of device drivers on my computer
Found the answer in the second response here. Needed to specifically set the USB connection to Internet
Problem:
Asus Nexus 7 not recognized by adb when correctly installed and connected
Setup:
Asus Nexus 7 tablet
Windows 7 64 bit OS
Steps taken:
Installed 64 bit Java JDK (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html)
Installed Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
Installed Google USB driver (http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html)
Set tablet to USB debugging mode
In the Windows Device Manager, the Nexus is recognized as an Android Device via Android Composite ADB Interface. The device status indicates it is connected and working properly, running driver version 7.0.0.1 (8/27/12 update) from Google.
However, when I run adb devices at the command prompt (in the sdk/platform-tools directory), the Nexus does not come up as an attached device - the list is empty.
Does anyone have any insight on what the problem might be? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling all drivers, restarting the computer each time. I have tried a variety of usb ports and cables, as well as switching between MTP and PTP connections with no success.
Hey I found a solution to this via mkh at
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-developers/0-RzE0v-G3k
Try this (as quoted from the above source)
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. Not exactly obvious why, but I you select the
second option "Camera (PTP)" the device is available for debugging.
This choice is persistent, and I'm guessing that with a band new
device it will connect as MTP until told otherwise
An important note about Nexus 7: There is no option for USB debugging readily available in the device Settings for 4.2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1989777
"Open Settings, then go to phone details (where u can see kernel, Android-version etc) then just tap your Build number 'JOP40C' 7 times!"
This sounds ludicrous, but after I did this, the developer options unlocked and I was able to see my nexus 7 in Eclipse (mac, Mountain Lion) for debugging.
In my case when I got an empty list using "adb devices" I found that the device manager showed the Nexus 7 tablet under 'other devices' with that dreaded yellow exclamation point indicating that the driver was not installed correctly. Why Windows recognized part of the tablet file system, I don't know. In any case I manually updated the driver to the google usb driver in android-sdks\extras\google.
Then adb gave me the following:
C:\Users\Brian\android-sdks\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
015d25785b601611 device
instead of a blank. I hope this doesn't mess anything else up but I can now talk to the device.
Had the same issue, Windows 7 32-bit; visited the site that Graham linked in his answer but wasn't happy running PTP (though it did work). Following the steps on another post belonging to the same thread sorted it (I can now connect as MTP); again, a direct quote from https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-developers/0-RzE0v-G3k (thanks sfoucher!):
uninstall the driver in the device manager with option "delete the driver software for this device"
reconnect the Nexus tablet
let windows install a default driver which will be inadequate
uninstall again the device in the device manager with the option "delete the driver software for this device"
let windows try to find the driver, this process will fail
go back to the device manager and right click the failed device and update driver
choose the driver location in the android sdk directory (android/extra/google/usb_driver)
I should add that after step 5 I had Nexus 7 listed under Portable devices looking OK but had another Nexus 7 entry under Other Devices to which I applied the driver. My Nexus 7 now appears OK in ADB and Eclipse. In device manager I have Nexus 7 under Portable Devices and Android Composite ADB Interface under Android Device.
I too had the same issue on windows 7 64 bit.
Following thing solved my problem.
Connect the Nexus 7 and tap on Settings-About Tablet-Build version 7 times.!
This will install basic driver for windows
Now, tap on connected as media device(MTP) icon, but you will need to change it as Camera device then
Go to device manager on windows, select Nexus 7 and then update the drivers using the driver avaliable on this link http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html - This will install a driver ( You can use it with this one)
Now tap on Connected as Camera device and change it to media device - This will install one more driver and you are ready to go.!
i was having the same problem and my solution was to download the device driver from Asus. Below is the link.
http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Nexus+7&p=28&s=2
That's how I solved this issue with a different device.
Download the drivers, unzip in a folder https://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#top
With your tablet plugged, go to System -> Device admin -> Android Device -> Properties -> Details -> Hardware ID
You'll find something like USB/VID_XXXX&PID_YYYY, we will need those XXXX and YYYY later.
Go to the folder you put your drivers and edit the file android_winusb.inf manually.
Add this:
;MY PHONE
%SingleBootLoaderInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_XXXX&PID_YYYY
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_XXXX&PID_YYYY&MI_01
Save the file
Go back to device manager and try to update the driver with this one. (Driver -> Update driver -> Search in my computer -> Choose from a list -> Use disk).
That worked for me on a Quechua Phone.
What worked for me is downloading the USB driver from the ASUS website:
http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Nexus+7&p=28&s=2
(you have to select the OS, which sometimes doesn't work, e.g. on the link Google returns when searching for "nexus 7 driver"). In that case, click on "Drivers and Download" and search for "Nexus 7". That gets me a page with a working OS selection.
I am using Windows 8 and the only thing that worked for me was the Nexus Root Toolkit 1.6.3 where I done the Full driver configuration Guide ... but I didn't follow the instructions there I went to step 2 and only installed the Signed drivers.

I had the same problem. For me the newer version of adb is required to connect to the Nexus 7 i.e. to have the Nexus 7 ask me to "Allow USB debugging?"
In short:
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.31 - Works
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.29 - Does not work
Download the latest android usb drivers from
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#top
And then manually install these driver using Device Manager. Hope it helps!
I had faced two issues:
Nexus 7 not visible to eclipse/adb when connected over usb on windows 7 64-bit using latest Jelly Bean sdk
It was not showing in the 'My Computer' >> 'Portable Devices' list.
Ultimately, I found that it is an issue with the driver. Steps to resolve the issue - Open Device Manager, Uninstall the current driver (along with delete option set to yes), disconnect the device, reconnect it again, let windows install the default driver it wants, and then installed the google sdk driver again. It worked this time.
Above tells me that there is some issue with default driver and therefore, you have to delete it and re-install it. Now, it is visible in eclipse/adb and also showing in 'My Computer' also.

Install Google usb driver from SDK Manager.
Later go to Device Manager, under "Other Devices" you'll see "Nexus" with the yellow exclamation mark. Right Click>Update Drivers>Let me choose>Let me pick from device drivers on my computer. Select android-sdk folder and click ok.
This solved my problem
Another option is if windows updates are turned totally off on your PC. In this case even if you download the USB driver & try update it manually as described above it will not work. The only way in this case is enabling windows updating drivers automatically. Once you enabled this, remove the non-working driver from device manager & connect you tablet to the PC via USB cable. The drivers will be automatically downloaded & installed by Windows.
This way worked on my Windows 7 PC.
After downloading the USB driver using the SDK manager, you can speed up the search for the new driver by telling Windows to look in the C:\Users\jdaehn\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio\sdk\extras\ folder (and sub-folders, in my case the drivers were in C:\Users\jdaehn\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver)

Eclipse DDMS Not recognising my Nexus (samsung)phone .I had install usb drivers externally as well as from device manager. also had conneceted device by usb cable in debug mode still it is not able to recognise in DDMS.please help what to do .Thanks In Advance.
I had a similar problem with another phone using Win7 x64. You should check first if all drivers are installed correctly.
Control Panel -> Device Management and check if there's something wrong.
If you use Win7 x64 try to reboot your system and start Window without using Driver signature.
Hope this help you
