so i have 4.1.57 atrix, i rooted it with the easy root located on xda forums. I have root access but now Im trying to enable side loading,
For the life of me I cant get glad enable script to work, I followed the directions and I keep getting execution failure, cannot find device through adb...
Any help or tips I can get?
Only thing I can think of is every time i plug my phone into my computer it wont download the adb driver by itself and i cant find it online to manually do it. Is that my problem?? is there anything else i need to look at?
I had this problem too and found out how to fix this.
download the attached zip file and put it in c drive or somewhere u can easily find it.
Make sure your phone has USB Debugging enabled
Plug USB cable into phone and put in USB Mass Storage Mode
Open up Device Manager (Located in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items)
Under Other Devices you should now see Motorola ADB Interface (Windows could not install the drivers for me)
Right-click and select Update Driver Software
Click on Browse my computer for driver software
Click on Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
Now this is the step where I'm sure most of you messed up on. Click on Show All Devices then Next. DO NOT CLICK ON ADB INTERFACE FROM THE LIST!
Click on Have Disk button
Click Browse button
Go to C:\ADBDrivers_v3\usb_driver\ then select android_winusb.inf and click the Open button
Click OK
Select Android Composite ADB Interface and click the Next button
Click Yes on the Update Driver Warning window
Check this link to the market

does that app in the market work for the atrix?
When I plug my phone in I have no way to transfer files to and from the Nexus 5. Nothing comes up. Tried updating the drivers, but nothing works. Please help.

Nope, still nothing. My Razr HD comes up fine, but not the Nexus 5. Think it's a conflict in drivers?

definitely...the only time i ever had Nexus driver issues was when i changed from HTC to Nexus
the best i can offer is how i fixed it...get a copy of Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit and follow his instructions from deleting all other drivers and installing new ones...he offers (i think) 4 different options and you just work your way through them until one stick (the RAW drivers always work for me)
and note that the Toolkit doesn't work on 4.4 yet, so only use it to clear and update drivers

Sweet, that did it. Uninstalled Motorola drivers, uninstalled Google ADB driver, restarted, plugged in phone, voila!

Thank you n7of9 the link you provided worked for me.
Another solution...
Plug the phone into your computer. Go to "Device Manager" and find the Nexus <x> device where-ever it's listed (may not be called "Nexus...", though on my machine with the real drivers it was).
Right click, choose "update driver software"
Select "browse my computer"
Select "let me pick..."
Choose the option. "usb composite device"
Apply and close all windows.
Disconnect and reconnect the phone to the computer.
The phone will now allow you to move files to it properly. Something weird with proper phone drivers. I believe you need to reverse this if you need to use ADB again in the future.
This worked and also fixed another popular issue
Not only does this fix the MTP connection issue to move folders to root folder. But it also now allows me to see the preview thumbnails of my media! This was a huge problem on my other phones and many many people including me were never able to fix that. All the ideas to get around or create USB Mass Storage instead of MTP after 4.1 were fails.

Worked perfect, thanks
what worked for me
In windows 8.1
I plugged in my nexus and browsed to device manager in control panel
I uninstalled the device (and deleted the driver)
I unplugged the nexus 5
I plugged it back in
Windows recognized it as a proper MTP device
I think the problem was something to do with windows recognizing it as an ADB device (I had installed the toolkit before etc)
This fixed it for me

Hi,
I did all the steps mentioned, and ran the driver test - everything works fine, success.
However, I still cant see my device in "This PC"...
What is even more weird, that it only disappeared couple of days ago, and I didnt do anything to my computer at all....
Any other way to get devices to show? (Nexus 10 or Nexus 4 stopped showing too).....
Maybe problem is that it is being shows as ACER ADB Interface? But i cant change that to MTP anyway..
Hey Guys,
I cant seem to be able to access the N5 as a media device on windows 8.1.. just wondering if anyone got it working?
I've tried searching around and tried a few things like trying to download MTP drivers from Nexus 7 but nothing seems to work.

Same for me.. Windows 7 here.
works fine on 8.1 here
Oddly enough, I have no issues on my Windows 8.1 Desktop but on my 8.1 laptop, it doesn't work at all. Both we're upgraded from 8.0, no fresh install. Both worked before. Obviously something more to it than just Windows 8.1
It shows "Google Nexus ADB Interface" even when I disabled USB Debugging.

This is the driver I installed on my Win 8.1 machine and also a Win XP machine. Both work for adb/fastboot and for storage access.

PC says it's the same like I have installed.
Plug the Nexus 5 into your computer with the USB cable.
Open Device Manager.
Find "Android Device" near the top and expand the node. Double click on "Android Composite ADB Interface".
In the properties window that pops up, uninstall and delete the current driver.
Unplug your Nexus 5 and plug it back in.

Try putting your phone back to usb debug mode and then from device manager uninstall the Google Nexus ADB Interface. Then at the top under actions click scan for hardware changes and try to install the driver again when it finds the device. I know i had to do this on mine.

Thanks, it helped halfways. It can't find drivers for Nexus 5 and MTP.
EDIT: Deactivated USB-Debugging and it worked! Thanks!
I´m looking for mass storage mode.
All I was able to do was to get working ADB mode and MTP mode. Totally easy....but whatever I do....no mass storage mode?!
Where did you read that? Google suppressed the mass storage mode with jb, since 'internal sdcard' is merely a folder of data partition mounted as a virtual vfat disk through fuse.
I can't imagine they suppressed a feature from android filesystem setup to introduce it back on a single flagship device.
And even if I'm not dev, every dev questioned about this said it's impossible with this filesystem setup. It would be only possible with a separate partition, (like on my sgs3) with external sdcard for example.
i have an original 8.1 and an win8 upgraded to 8.1...
i cant install it on both machines
tried with usb debugging on and off. i can see the device, but i cant install it. only adb drivers. but i want to use USB storage (MTP)
kinda embarassing: good old windows xp, running on a 10+ year old laptop performs perfectly fine-.-
Thanks for the help.. got the ADB installed but when in debugg mode MTP comes up but wont install drivers for it.. when debug is off MTP doesnt sho in device manager.. i just want to get MTP working

THANK YOU!
I've been screwing around with this thing for an hour trying to copy a new ROM to it, and I couldn't get it to work. This took 2 seconds!
Thank you again!

You're welcome , just glad i could be of assistance.
Regards.
it still doesnt work for me...the only device it works on is my pre-stoneage-laptop...so eerytime i want to transfer something i first have to put it on my laptop, and then on the N5....
cant somebody just kinda copy and paste their drivers? If thats possible i need Win 8.1 Pro N x64
I have a Nexus 5 that I have had about a month now and I had the USB on it working before about a week ago. I plugged it in today and neither my desktop or laptop could recognize it anymore. Both computers are running Windows 8.1.1 and the issues seems to be new as I can neither get USB storage or ADB to find it. The closest I can get it to working is to switch the USB mode to PTP and it reads that but I don't want to pull photos off. When I have it in MTP, it makes the sound of it plugging in and my phone shows it is plugged into a computer but Explorer shows nothing and it says it is working normally in device manager. I've tried everything from enabling and disabling debugging, restarted both my phone and computer tried reinstalling the drivers (both by the computer automatically finding them and manually installing them) but nothing seems to work. Is it possible that Windows Update could of broke the drivers since my computer installed updates yesterday? I also have Linux on my laptop and it appears to read fine with Linux.
That's the exact issue. If you check in Device Manager you'll see it listed as 'ACER ADB Device' (or something like that). You have right-click on it, select update driver, manually check and go through the list option and choose the MTP driver and it'll work again (and with USB Debugging enabled if you don't usually have it on like me)
I theorise that it's happened cause the Acer driver is digitally signed and the Google ones aren't but I could be wrong. Either way, it's a PITA

OK thanks. I'll give it a try because it was showing up as ACER ADB Device under device manager
EDIT: I updated the drivers and used the USB composit drivers instead and it got MTP working again. When I set it to USB composit, it installed Google's ADB drivers and the Nexus 5's USB drivers so everything is working again. Thanks for your help

I can´t manually update driver because of this:
when i update the acer adb it says the driver is up to date and everything is all same. what to do?
Thanks! Thought I was going to go crazy. Worked for me...
i set the driver to MTP as mentioned above and the phone started to show up on the explorer but now i couldnt copy any files from my laptop to the
phone. It displays like that and if clicked yes then the copy wouldnt happen.what is the problem.
Uninstall driver, plug in device, tell windows to not auto install driver (or disconnect from internet), click to update or install driver, point to folder with drivers, install, all is done.

That msg comes when you're in PTP mode I think...Only certain formats are supported.
Check under storage, expansion menu and make sure you are set to the first option...not PTP.
Above guy mentioned to have phone in USB debugging mode when setting up drivers.
If the device is showing then you need to point to the drivers for it (download them from google). I reinstalled windows a few days ago and had the acer issue (device first shows up in device manager as nexus 5 then switches to acer), windows wants it to be an acer device. Stop windows and then install the correct drivers,
For me I had to click the auto install in windows tray and tell it to stop. After a few times it worked.
No I'm connecting in MTP mode. Ahh its gettn irritating.

Chances are it is a driver issue with the computer. Does it appear on another computer with the same cable?
Uninstall old drivers and then re-install the Nexus 5 drivers https://dl-ssl.google.com//android/repository/latest_usb_driver_windows.zip

Go to "Settings", then "Storage". Click on menu in the upper right side of the screen, the three small squares, and “USB Computer Connection” drop down should show. If it does then change to PTP and see if the computer can see it.
If you don't get the "USB Computer Connection" drop down then its probably the USB drivers OR the cable!
I'd uninstall drivers from the computer by connecting phone to the computer right clicking on computer icon, choose manage, device manager, under usb you should see nexus 5 or unknown(with a yellow triangle). Right click and uninstall. Reboot computer and install the drivers listed on googles website for the nexus 5. You may have to just connect you device to the computer and let it try to install then right click Nexus 5 or Unknown again and choose update drivers and browse to the unzipped downloaded usb drivers.
If that doesn't work then i'd buy a replacement usb cable. I got so many of these laying around did you try this yet?
Are you running stock or a rom? Might be something with a rom. I remember having a similar issue several years ago with this, i'm pretty sure it was a driver issue, possibly a rom. Heck the micro usb connection on your phone could be full of dust and junk and isn't making a connection.

This has proven to work when usb drivers aren't working in recovery! Just thought i'd pass this your way in case it helps.

I can see “USB Computer Connection”, changing to PTP doesn't help.
Tried 4 different cables and 3 different laptops, no luck
Running stock ROM installed from Nexus Root Toolkit
In fastboot mode, device manager shows "Android Device" > Google Nexus 4 BootLoader Interface".
Any suggestions on what to do next?

1-install lg drivers and also update to twrp 2.8.2
2-take a complete backup of your phone and try some other rom instead of one you are using
3-also update your windows too
4-full wipe your internal partition before installing new rom
5-try some other kernel
