Computer recognize phone - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

I just joined the beta program to be able to jump right into 8.0 yesterday. Now my computer at home will not recognize the phone. I can connect it to my laptop or work computer and be able to transfer files without any issue. Prior to this upgrade, I was able to transfer files to the home computer without any issue. I have tried reinstalling the drivers, but no such luck. Any advice??

Can't transfer files via USB?

I am currently running Win8 and can not copy any files from my computer to phone via USB. The file transfer starts, but then fails at some point through it. Any ideas why? i think i could have something to do with win8...
EDIT: changed USB cables and reinstalled drivers and it worked... weird

[Q] MTP not working

I've searched a few different queries and unable to find a solution.
When I connect my phone to my PC at work (running win xp), it comes up as an MTP device as expected, but when I open the drive it shows no files or folders.
I don't have the bandwidth to download HTC Sync, are there other drivers I can get that will allow it to work?
I'm pretty sure it's a windows xp problem. When I actually get it to work it is very very slow about as fast as bluetooth.
Its weird. It works on the other xp machine. I'm assuming its a driver issue but I couldn't get it to work. Was hoping someone had some insight

I usually only get the MTP popup in recovery. Not quite sure how to turn it on in CM10, I go to Storage and USB computer connection and select MTP but it just goes back to Mass storage.
I have the opposite on sense. Only mtp while booted in Rom. But since it doesbt work on this machine, I have to boot into recovery and mount storage to transfer files

then i changed my usb cable but it still wont work on my pc...Can someone please help? im running win 7...please explain in simple terms i dont have a lot of technical knowledge
It might be your cable but I normally activate htc sync through my phone, wait for my pc to pull it up then just close it and select disk drive on my phone and my sdcard normally comes up.

[Q] Soft-bricked Droid DNA -- any hope to recover this phone?

Hi all,
I spent several hours searching for the solution and I had no luck. I picked this phone up on craigslist for parts, but now I'm hoping to figure out a way to bring it back to life. The previous owner tried rooting the phone and deleted the rom in TWRP. I picked it up from where he left off and I cannot get Windows XP to recognize this phone as an external drive so that I can copy a rom onto it (I also tried Windows Vista, 7, and Mac OS).
When I connect the phone to the computer it does recognize as an external drive, but when I try to open it I get a message saying "please insert disk into drive E:". See pics in attachments.
I installed HTC Sync in hopes it will give me drivers that will help, but no luck. Is there anything else I can try to load a rom onto this phone?
thanks in advance!

Mount CD Drive

When I first connected my phone on my laptop, it has a CD Drive as well.
I accidentally safely removed it from the Windows system tray (from the icon of connected USB devices).
How can I get the contents of the CD Drive from the Nokia 8 phone or is there a way to mount the CD Drive again when I connect my phone?
Reconnecting the phone doesn't seem to make the CD Drive contents be mounted again.
All it contains are the drivers that windows needs to install for it to be able to connect to your phone. It autoruns when you connect the phone to install the required drivers. It's nothing you need worry about.

Is there a way to make it work again?
If you just did the safely remove drive before I plugging the phone it should have just appeared again when the phone was connected again. Have you mounted the phone for file transfer? When you plug it into your pc when you unlock the phone a question should appear asking if you want to mount it for file transfer. Does the drive appear when you do this?
If it doesn't you may have to go into disk management and re-assign a drive letter to it again.

I was not prompted with that autoplay setting when I tried to replug it. I will try the re-assigning drive letter solution.
