Hi, guys!
I have a problem..
My Nexus 5 doesn't connect to PC or Mac. Nor for MTP, nor for PTP. Device manager doesn't see phone. No beeps, dinglings etc. But phone is charging as normal.
And aaalso, i can't download files, can't make screenshots, Cabinet won't see anything in downloads, files etc. Tried recover from backup, tried reflash xtrasmooth from TWRP but didn't success. Same problem.. Tried different cables - no success. Tried moving cable - no luck.. Tried chmod from TWRP on /data/media/0 - didn't worked.. I've tried everything. ADB, fastboot not working..
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance. =)
If I remember correctly TWRP does provide an option to repair certain partitions. You could try that. I'm not sure if it will delete your personal data though :/
Flashing a factory image would be a second option. This will delete your files for sure though.

TWRP cannot repair internal storage partition.. At least for me. Other options was unsuccessful (tried repair, fix permissions etc. After permissions my phone even started bootloop).
Well.. did you use file encryption?

Now, i cannot even make my nexus download files and take screenshots..
Do you have any important files on your internal storage? If not, a factory image might be the best try.

Maybe you're right, but how can i put factory image on my phone without USB and option to download files?)
You don't need to copy it to your phone. It gets flashed via fastboot. Does your computer not even detect the phone in fastboot mode? Drivers installed? Do you use Windows 8?

I use WIn7 and Mac. Fastboot and ADB doesn't detect phone. Tried all 4 drivers from Nexus Tool Kit.

Try this: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
Remove all usb drivers and try again. Drivers for adb and fastboot are here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Usually it helps.
P.S. You don't need drivers from NRT.
P.S.2 I've noticed that @_MetalHead_ is around. Do not mention NRT or any other Toolkits anymore.

Hahaha! Hey now, I have no problem with toolkits when used by people who actually know what they are doing, which OP seems to. They just encourage people to jump in the deep end before learning to swim, and that's what I have a problem with. But you know that
Anyways... I don't suspect OP has a driver issue, seeing as though it's also not working with his Mac. It almost seems like a permissions issue, but seeing as though OP tried chmod, then I really don't know what to say. Maybe ask @rootSU, if anybody knows how to fix it, it's him.

Yes, probably you are wright. This is just suggestion from my experience. I've had somethimes problems with drivers and allways fixed them with this little software.
But offcourse, we all hope that rootSU gave up from Nexus 6 and then get back here.

Try this, with your device connected to the pc go to device manager. Do you see a device with a yellow exclamation mark? If so right click and go to where it lets you choose a driver from your computer. Choose the android composite adb interface.

No yellow exclamation mark..
What if the problem is in permissions and maybe i'm doing something wrong? I have root. Tried to change them from Root Browser - no luck. Tried to make chmod from TWRP - no luck... At least, downloads and USB still not working. (BTW, music is OK and i can see photos, but can't write them)

What permissions are you changing on what files/folders?
Also, see the first link of my signature, try the 15-second adb/fastboot installer, and if that doesn't work then there is a thread for diagnosing driver issues.

Long time listener. First time caller.
I have an issue. My tf101 lost the ability to transfer data about week ago. Meaning, its not detectable by computers or any usb device
The tablet was rooted but i returned to stock in an effort to fix the problem and lost root.
I have tried:
3 cables
4 PC's
1 linux box
The tablet charges fine and even trickle charges from usb ports
I narrowed down the problem to a partially corrupt bootloader. Or simply a bad flash(team rouges rec and revolution rom)
I think i may be able to fix the problem by flashing ClockWork recovery, but i need to get root access. Any ideas or am i just screwed?
So im screwed right?

No, you're not "screwed" You could always just download an over-wifi file transfer app. I'm not sure what the best ones are on the Play Store, but I'd do you research if you're gonna drop a couple bucks on one. I haven't bothered since my Skyrocket is Samsung and I already get Kies Air.
I would suggest after flashing ClockWork recovery trying out some other ROMs and kernels and seeing if that fixes your problem. I would also highly suggest Team Win Recovery Project. It's been my favorite recovery so far, not to mention the touch screen interface is fantastic.

I assume you can still get into APX mode? If so, I would try running this. It's what I initially used to root my TF101, and it doesn't require you to use your installed recovery. Basically it roots and installs CWM recovery from a script run from your computer. Let me know what happens.

Well, I'm assuming that this is no longer on stock firmware and/or too old to be still under warrantee. The only thing I can think of, unless someone else here can give you an answer, is that it may be a hardware problem and you'd have to send it in to ASUS to get it fixed.....

Currently I think it recognizes the phone as a media device (or similar, I forgot the name), not as a disk drive. I am on a Mac, and I have Android File Transfer installed, which then tells me that the device cannot be opened. On Windows it couldn't be opened either although it talked about a driver issue. I currently only have a Mac, but from Monday I could work on a Windows machine again.
The ROM currently being installed is the original AT&T provided ROM.
Thanks so much!

What version? IS it already installed on your phone? I'm trying to find out if you require MTP drivers or not. Latest version of sense/stock Roms require MTP driver to access the SD card.
In any case I wouldn't suggest using any version of TWRP above 2.3.3.1
So, I would download twrp 2.3.3.1 and check the md5
then fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
select recovery from bootloader then try to mount sdcard with twrp.

Alright, I have tried this with the latest HTC Sync manager: the MTP Drivers however won't install. I have tried with the One X+ of my Dad (which is also brand new, so probably requires the newest version also), and it installs fine and appears as a media device in the explorer. Mine however does not do anything, and driver installation says it fails to install the driver. I have tried manually installing the drivers, however, it seems to have to do with the phone because when I disconnect it suddenly Windows 7 is able to install those drivers, and as mentioned before it also works with a functional phone.
Next week I will be back at work and I have a Windows 8 machine there. I don't have high hopes that it works there, but since there seems to be an MTP driver issue with Win7, maybe there's a chance.
Is there anything else I could do?
Thanks!

OK, so on Windows 8 I am able to install the driver, and it does not fail like in Win7, but I still can't access the mounted storage. The message of the device is:

Are you rebooting to bootloader to do the fastboot commands? In bootloader it should say Fastboot in red. Then after a couple seconds that should change to Fastboot USB. I don't think fastboot needs the specific drivers to be on the PC like mounting the SD card requires.

You are definitely doing something wrong. fastboot commands only work within bootloader/fastboot and adb commands only work while the rom is loaded up or in sideload mode in TWRP. It's assumed you know this prior to rooting.

Turn off the phone. Then hold volume down and briefly press the power button. Don't let go of volume down until it gets to the boot loader screen. Wait for fast bot USB to display. Then you can try exad's fast boot commands.

It should change to FASTBOOT USB if you are plugged into a computer. If you connected to the computer after you got to bootloader mode, you might have to press volume up or down to get it to switch to FASTBOOT USB Maybe this is the root of your problem. Have you tried multiple USB cables? Is there any crud in the micro-USB port on your phone? It's a little odd that the micro-USB port would break in a manner that charging would still work but not data connections, but I'm starting to wonder if that isn't the case.

I just wiped my System and Factory Reset and now I lost all my ROM's, no OS is installed, and mounting through TWRP doesn't do anything, so essentially my phone is bricked.
How do I fix this? I checked online about pushing the ROM through adb, but it doesn't recognize my device so I can't do anything at all, adb sideload isn't working either, I already tried adb push and that doesn't do anything either, any help is GREATLY appreciated

I did a factory reset and system wipe through TWRP Recovery, heck I even tried flashing a newer version of the recovery cause I heard it fixes the problem of mounting to the USB, but when I try flashing the new recovery through bootloader using fastboot, it gets stuck at "Waiting for Devices", so I can't even try that either....
I've essentially got a paperweight :/ ....
My Recovery still works, I can get into Bootloader as well, but I can't connect my device to my computer or transfer files onto it, essentially meaning I can't put a ROM onto my phone to even flash....and since I wiped System, theres no OS installed at all...meaning I also can't turn on USB debugging mode....
sigh.... :/
Strangely though, in my booloader, it shows "FASTBOOT USB", so obviously my computer DOES detect the device, but no luck so far getting a ROM into my phone...
Ok so when you mount usb storage in twrp. In my computer on your pc, so you have an unformated drive?

Hopefully that will let me adb sideload the ROM, if it doesn't work, well, then I'm all out of ideas.

Report back if that doesn't work and I have an idea, it uses the device manager to uninatall all USB drives then plug in phone and it will reinstall them.

Well, this is really stressing me out, I'm about to just give up, I don't know what else to try....
Word of advice to everyone, NEVER wipe your System and sdcard at the same time, you will essentially have no way of getting files onto your phone anymore, and you won't have an OS, that piece of information should be stickied somewhere.... sigh...
Thanks everyone for trying to help though, if anyone has any further suggestions, or anything that could help, I would really appreciate it.... I'm about to tear my hair out...

boot to fastboot
plug phone in
do fastboot usb devices
Tell me what happens. This will help me narrow down the problem.
Don't stress. This isn't really a brick, I'm sure we can get things working again. And stress will only blind you.

Ok!
Here's what you do:
Uninstall the HTC Drivers, HTC Sync and any other software for any other phone syncing/managing.
Then reboot.
Then install the latest HTC Sync
Then try again.
Alternatively, if you have a PC with a fresh install or another OS on your system you can try, I find linux to be the easiest to get fastboot/adb working without issue personally, You can try that instead.

I am going to try that now, but for some reason, my laptop doesn't wan't to let me uninstall my HTC One XL driver, it just hangs, so to start fresh, I'm going to try it on another computer, It's running Windows Vista, and I'll go ahead and install the latest HTC Sync like you said and let you know.

In Windows device manger you probably have a usb port when an "!" On it. Right click it then manual install the usb drivers. You'll have to browes to whet you downloaded the drivers

Google "nexus 5 diagnosing usb drivers xda"
why use a toolkit on a nexus device? its easier to root your nexus without a toolkit.
1. "fastboot oem unlock" via fastboot unlocks the bootloader.
2. flash a custom recovery via fastboot
3. flash the su binaries(supersu) in your new recovery.
4. reboot and profit, thats it.

might want to add after you unlock the bootloader to boot into the device once.

You're probably going to have to go into device manager, view hidden, and delete each usb port that is not being used and start over. Don't have your phone connected when you do this. It's a pita. Then reboot your computer, than plug your phone in. Also make sure you're using the usb cable that came with your phone and usb ports in the back of your pc

some people have reported issues if you didnt let the device 'reset' itself after you unlocked the bootloader so it could rebuild the data partition.
its more of a precautionary thing than anything else.

Yep, that's not currently being used. You don't want to lose your keyboard, etc.

I installed latest CM rom and unfortunately xposed framework on top.
after that my device does not start and seems to stack in CM logo for ever.
I can get to recovery but does not find any backup files! Seems like scdard is empty or not recognizable.
I tried to push a new rom for with adb from fastboot but my pc does not seems to find the phone. Like adb debugging is not enabled on the phone.
I also fails when I try to erase the device from recovery.
Any help is welcome.
Boot in fastboot and flash a factory image. Best way to fix pretty much anything.

Try to reinstall the universal drivers, and try different usb ports on your computer.

You need to make sure you're in the bootloader.

Hi, your phone is ok, just empty. the problem is on the computer. You need to fix the driver for nexus 5. You probably have them installed since you unlocked the phone. just keep your phone connected and on recovery mode.
go to device manager, look for nexus 5. Choose "update driver"
"Browse my computer for driver...,
"let me pick from a list of device drivers"
choose any ADB driver, and install it.
Many more ways to do it

If it can boot to the bootloader, and it still cant find the device, the problem is either with your computer(driver) or with the usb hardware on the phone(highly unlikely since it happened after you messed with software)
