You need to re-install the universal drivers for that device as well, no matter if you installed for another previously. Happened to me with 3 nexuses 5 at home.

So do I just remove the old drivers then plug in my new n5 then let it do its magic? Or install it myself on Android sdk

Yep, uninstall. If you got google drivers or universal naked drivers, install them

It makes the regular USB sound when plugged in then immediately makes like a awkward different sound after assuming that it's not recognize man I need to do this before school tommorow
I went to device manager delted all drivers related to Nexus 5 then deleted google drive on Android sdk then reinstalled it... Rebooted computer and still not getting installed..

are you on a windows PC?
If so, on the start menu, type "Device manager", open it, look for Nexus 5 on the list of devices, right click it and choose "update driver software"
then, choose " Browse my computer/ let me pick form a list of devices drivers, choose one that says ADB, look for Google or LG, next" ... done

Help...Phone not being recognized by PC after Unlocking it

So I just bought a galaxy note 2 off of someone and I got it unlocked. So to unlock it the guy put it in the PC and the computer recognized it and it got unlocked. After, I put it into my PC but it is not being recognized by the computer. I can charge it though and yes I did turn USB debugging on. Can someone please help?

You could try re-installing the drivers and/or associating the currently install ones to your device.

In that case just associate it with currently installed driver (it will not affect your other device).
KK got it working...it was in service mode

Is Verizon trying very hard to make you use data?

When I would plug my old phone into my computer I could get my phone to appear as a removable drive. With the MAXX I plug it in and I get the install wizard and easy tether works.
No removable drive for file transfer.
What gives?

The CDROM thing auto launches, but the phone storage loads too in My Computer for me. Being on Windows 8, I get a prompt on how I want both to launch.
I may need a new OS! My personal computer is still on XP!

Do you have Motorola Device Manager installed currently? If so, do you have the most recent version (2.4.3)? That is probably what is needing to be installed
I thought I had the latest drivers. I will start with that.

Getvar... Have to admit, I am clueless there.
This is required on a stock never rooted phone?

I will have to run it again. It is something the the effect of the software encountered an error during install and will not work.

That sounds Windows related to me. Win XP, Vista, 7 or 8?
There is a line in the download that has "getvar" in it that has to be deleted.

I have a xp netbook and desktop, and a Windows 7 laptop. Didn't have any issues or have to delete this getvar thing you speak of. I also didn't have to uninstall any previous versions of motorola device manager. When I installed the full app , it came up as an update.
I did notice once I had to switch the settings on my phone. Something about the media transfer protocol set as a camera.

If you didn't mod the system files then the original owner did. To resolve, flash stock factory 4.4.2 images. If you did a factory reset when you got the phone, and don't want to start over, flash the img files one at a time with fastboot (excluding userdata.img).
If you don't know how to do that, check out the stickies (I think in general). There is a very detailed thread there.
The phone was brand new when I got it. I believe it said update ready for download when I did the factory reset.. Now it just says that..

you can take the ota update through wi-fi only...
no need to reset. but i prefer to do it to prevent any system app from crashing and to have a fresh firmware.
All you had to do was connect to wifi. That update required you to do that. "Via wifi only".

Oh. Thats odd, but I guess you got it working, so thats good.
Your screen shot shows that your not connected to Wi-Fi. It says you have to be connected to Wi-Fi to update.

Nexus 5 unable to authorize

My friend got a new nexus 5 and for some reason the window that usually pops up to authorize the computer does not show up. Tried different cables, debugging is enabled, tried hard reset, software is updated. My nexus connects and authorizes fine. Inability to authorize is preventing us from being able to flash custom recovery. I was able to boot device into bootloader mode and unlock it though, but no luck when it is booted. Any ideas?

Yes, you know how a window would popup asking to reject or accept when debugging is enabled? That window never comes up. So, apps like nexus root toolking or most adb commands do not work.

You may need to run your pc without antivirus and firewall.. Right click a program and select run as administrator..

Sounds like you don't have the latest adb&drivers. This happened to me also. Those can undoubtedly be found somewhere on here by searching.

Not just the drivers, use a newer adb too. If that doesn't work you can clear the authorized devices on the phone and there is also a file located on your computer that I think needs to be deleted also.
My nexus was really picky on the debug 'handshake' whereas I had to remove all authorized computers/delete the file on my pc and use the newest adb and drivers - and even then I had to reboot the phone first (once everything was cleared) and use the newest adb & drivers to make it work right.
