I have 2 Nexus 5's one is my own, 32gb, rooted with xposed, the other a 16gb unmodified stock
When I connect my phone its shows in 'computer' and I can browse the storage etc as expected.
The stock handset, connected to the same USB port (or any USB port for that matter) it shows in device manager but not in 'computer' so I cant browse the storage.
I dont get why one is working and the other is not, both being the same device using the same drivers?
I tried various combinations of debugging on/off, mtp/ptp mode.
Why is it not showing in 'Computer' as a device?
(Windows 8.1)
EDIT:
Found the solution, Uninstall Driver and check the box to delete the driver files, seems there was a conflict with some clockworkmod driver?...

I'm on Open Your Eyes VRBLK3,with rooted & Unlocked Bootloader. I was going to flash a ROM so I made a nandroid, etc. I went to transfer the ROM from my PC to my SD card via USB but when I plug in my phone it makes the noises windows makes for USB devices, my device shows the USB symbol in the pull down and says "Connected as an Installer". When I touch for more options they are Media Device (MTP) or Camera (PTP) and my device doesn't appear as a drive like it always has in the past.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Did you try Samsungs newest driver? I randomly get problems with usb connecting too. Usually after I flash a non stock kernel it kills usb working right for me. On windows 8 and 7

Hi,
Have bought a clone Galaxy s4 i9500 phone. Korean Made
Can connect to pc as usb storage device but not as a phone.I am not able to see the operating system files via usb storage just ordinary files. The phone has not any app buttons just a few games preloaded. When connecting to the internet the Baidu page comes up (Chinese)
The phone has limited settings ie Phone settings, Display, Security, Call settings and Connections
Due to this I am unable to check phone components in order to load drivers to connect or to enable usb debugging mode.
Did reset phone and tried many drivers and connection managers.
Phone memory apparently 1.2M? Memory file use presently 884.01k/1.2M
The phone does not have a file manager.
When connecting to a pc the following settings come up, Charging, U Disk and PC Connecting. PC Connecting under under other devices show as Two Usb Devices when connected. I use xp sp3 on the pc.
Downloaded apk programs to pc then to sd card on phone but unable to open them.
The phone built is as below
Can anybody on the forum identify the phone by the pictures.
Thank you

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
I can no longer see my Verizon Note 3 phone when in Windows Explorer when connected via USB. The only related change that I can think of is the installation of ADB related files/programs on my PC so I could modify Amazon Fire Stick (which I successfully did). I "believe" i have the right drivers installed, tried MTP and 3.0 connection and can see Samsung Android Device in Device Manager. I tried to uninstall that driver and reconnect but still nothing.
Can anyone help?

You might have better results asking in your specific device help forum.

I wonder if there's a problem because my phone's storage is full...
Hi,
I have a very serious problem with my OnePlusOne (64GB) after updating to version YOG4PAS3JL. Since the update, ADB no longer recognizes my phone.
It doesn't depend on the computer I'm using, I have tried to use my phone on 3 different computers (Windows) that I use on a regular basis and none shows my phone with the command adb devices.
Connecting via MTP is no problem, but when I enable Android debugging with USB, my phone will not show up in Windows Explorer.
I have also attached a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and a HTC phone, both are recognized by ADB.
If I change the mode to MTP, it will show up as portable device called A0001 in the windows device manager. If I switch to Android Debugging, it will simply disappear and not show up
as "other device" or usb device without driver. So I can't even reinstall Android ADB Interface, it also doesn't show up in the Device Manager any longer. If I try to install a driver for my OnePlus One when it is in MTP mode, it will also only allow me to install MTP drivers (no possibility to install the previously so fine working Samsung USB drivers).
I have literally tried every solution out there I have found, from unplugging and restarting my phone, using different USB ports, using different USB cables, reinstalling Samsung USB drivers (didn't help as phone did not show up as unrecognizes device any longer), uninstalling Google USB driver, adding OnePlusOne to the .inf usb driver file myself (which mostly resulted in an "no compatible driver was found in this folder"-error), installing fastboot (didn't change anything), universal adb driver setup, pdanet, using USDBDeview, removing drivers with the bacon root toolkit to removing mtp files from the inf folder of windows to prevent MTP driver installation, but nothing worked
I would prefer to go back to the version before YOG4PAS3JL, where ADB worked fine or install a different ROM, but I have seen that every guide states that you need to have ADB to install a new ROM. As my phone is not rooted and I can no longer use ADB with my phone, I'm basically pretty stuck and don't know what to do I'm pretty desperate after two days of trying to solve this problem without success and would be so thankful for any suggestion what I could do.
Same situation...let me know if you find any solution.
Same situation here. Anf I guess this might have a link with my lack of internet connection while tethering.
Did any of you tried the USB or wifi tether? Does it work?
