My Moto G is not connecting to PC even after other Moto G connects to the same PC

Well guys, from the title you will think that its a regular windows drivers problem, but its not that straight. My Moto G is not even detecting to my laptop having windows 10 system (no yellow exclamation mark in device manager, not even an error message atleast) But at the same time my friends Moto G and Moto E is connecting in seconds and able to see that in device manager, also able to access files from mobile storage.
First time in my life I am feeling clueless even after trying every option to fix it.
First the basic system information for you:
Laptop: Dell Inspiron 1545 , Windows 10 OS Pro version (not K and KN version )
Drivers installed: Motorola device manager, Google SDK pack is also installed with its ADB driver.
About phone:
Moto G XT1033 16GB model[/COLOR]
OS: non rooted stock Lollipop 5.1 OS, Developer options enabled-USB debugging enabled
Now things I've already tried to fix this:
With Windows 10:
1) Downloaded Motorola device drivers from mototola website for Moto G. Installed, checked for update drivers. Thoroughly gone through Device manager and checked there but no sign of device at all.
2) NO problem with data cable because it can transfer data and not just a charging cable. confirmed and verified.
3) Checked USB ports for loose contacts at both sides of wire. Connected in every port for hope. No such problem.
4) Even after my Windows 10 is a Pro version I still tried to install Media Feature Pack as suggested by Microsoft site in case to overcome this problem but no luck.
5) Whenever I tried to run Motorola device manager, it just checks for new device software and goes off saying no updates.
Now even you can tell that there is no issue with windows system.
With Moto G:
1) Checked USB debugging, stay awake options In developer options.
2) Tried changing MTP option to PTP and reverse in setting - storage menu.
3) Checked every setting menu from android settings and apps to make sure no one is preventing this device from connecting.
4) Tried reseting mobile with to factory.
5) Pen drive is connecting to mobile via USB OTG and data transfer is working to and fro.
Important:
1) I can transfer my mobile files to PC by wireless method using apps, but I want to root my device. For that I have to connect it to PC to unlock the boot loader.
2) Before 2 months with the same system and windows 10, this moto g was connecting to PC and I was able to transfer files. But for now its not connecting at all.
Sorry for the long post but help me guys !!! What can you suggest me here if I am missing something ?
Thanks in advance.:good:

Things you could try:
- Use a Linux OS (live CD/USB) and run lsusb to see if anything shows up
- Put the phone into bootloader mode (fastboot) and see if the PC detects any USB device
If both of the above fail, the USB port in your phone may be defective.

Thanks for the quick reply. I tried to connect mobile in fastboot mode and now its saying [device descriptor request failed] in device manager. I am trying further and will also check linux os option that you suggested.

Tried both of your workarounds
When connected in fastboot mode it is showing [device descriptor request failed] in device manager.
Searched about it a lot and tried different solutions suggested for it..but its still not connecting properly.
2) checked with live cd and using command lsusb but no luck there ..
Now I'm really thinking that it's a USB port problem/hardware problem of mobile..but how that port is working fine for charging ??
Plzz suggest me any other methods of fix thus problem or is there any other way rather than connecting mobile to pc for unlocking Motorola devices bootloader ???

After a couple of hours trying to fix this problem with my XT1039, I solved it with this windows update: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=49919 .
All over the internet ppl say that Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 10 should be installed but all the mirrors and 1st results goes to the PREVIOUS version which didn't solve my problem. With this latest version, everything is working now.

Connecting OnePlus One to adb

I have latest Android Studio installed and Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41.
In Android Studio SDK Tools I have installed Google USB Driver v12.
My ONePlus One has Carbonfibers ROM, has developer options turned on and Android Debugging turned on.
When I plug in OnePlous One I get no mobile notifications and nothing in Win 10 Pro.
Device Manager / Portable or Other devices does not have the phone beneathn it.
When I run adb devices in cmd there are no devices attached.
I cannot find a OnePlus One adb usb driver.
Any suggestions how to diagnose this problem and get my OnePlus One recognised by adb?

Unable to connect to usb
I installed Carbon-cr-5.1-moo-release-bacon-20180202-1444.
I am unable to get usb connection working and having tried many different things...
-I have latest Android Studio installed and Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41.
-In Android Studio SDK Tools I have installed Google USB Driver v12.
-I have developer options turned on and Android Debugging turned on.
-When I plug in OnePlous One I get no mobile notifications and nothing in Win 10 Pro.
- when I go into developer options and hit 'select usb configuration' my selection of mtp or whatever is always ignored and charging selectiomn remains
-Device Manager / Portable or Other devices does not have the phone beneathn it.
-When I run adb devices in cmd there are no devices attached.
-I cannot find a OnePlus One adb usb driver. I thought I found one but I have no way to verify and after installing it made no difference
I want to update to the latest rom in case this may be the cause, but after I download it to the phone and click flash
I just get the oneplus icon forever and the recover app twrp does not come up. It used to be there but then after I installed
the first rom after a couple of uses it disappeared for some reason or at least will not boot to it.
When I installed that first custom rom I folowed instructions for rooting and on completion it says to open up the installed
su app but when you open it it says there is a more up to date version but when you try to install that it fails.
Now all the apps that will not run if your app is rooted say it is rooted and all the apps that will not run unless it is rooted
say it is not rooted.
I think I need connection via usb in order to reinstall the twrp recovery app in order to install an up to date rom, hoping this may help
me solve the usb issue, but I cannot get the usb connection working as described above,
any hehlop would be appreciated.

Same Situation

Blackview Tab 8 - which ADB, how to remove "Search" widget...

I wasn't sure where to post this, as the only Blackview-related subforum is for one of their phones... Anyway, I recently bought Blackview Tab 8 (a 10" tablet), and I'm quite pleasantly surprised about its quality (even the box is almost wooden-like ) and the fact that they give you basically everything you need in the package (unlike some manufacturers who keep taking away things season by season...). Also, pure Android without any bloatware - there were a couple of games and apps I don't really need, but they can all be easily uninstalled, or at least disabled (the latter didn't reappear so far, I hope it stays that way).
Three questions for now:
- Any idea which ADB drivers should I install to be able to use adb on this device? I already have three on my Windows 7 computer from before, but connecting this device to the computer didn't find a suitable one.
- How can I remove the "silhouette" of Google Search widget/box on the home screen (other than the workarounds such as changing the launcher, or moving icons to a secondary page and leaving the silhouette alone)? It just stays there after disabling Google/Assistant/etc apps, but doesn't do anything and it can't be moved. I had a similar issue in the past (I think it was a Chuwi tablet).
- How can I tell if the device can be connected to an external display via USB-C to HDMI adapter?

Google's ADB & Fastboot drivers basically are both device and Android OS version independent. However how they got implemented by OEM/Carrier is different. Also in most cases it's required to install an additional "Android USB Driver" provided by OEM/Carrier to make ADB and/or Fastboot flawlessly work.
A link to an ADB / Fastboot installer is to be found in my signature.

I think I actually need those "additional drivers". From what I can see your script downloads what I already have (from platform-tools). adb.exe doesn't show any devices, though. The exclamation marks in Device Manager are at "ADB Interface" and 3x "Unisoc Phone".

Here you go:
Unisoc / Spreadtrum SPD drivers for Windows (SCI & USB)
Its important to install SPD drivers else Spreadtrum flash tools like Research Download, CM2 SPD etc won't be able to detect the phone. This is a collection of unsigned (.inf) drivers to be installed
forum.hovatek.com

I tried
Spreadtrum SCI Android USB drivers
Spreadtrum Drivers
SCI android usb driver jungo v4
SPD drivers 2018 ver2.0.0.131
but none of them worked.

In the end, I was able to make it work using these drivers:
How-to install SPD Driver R4.20.0201 (Easy Guide)
Step-by-step guidelines to download and install SPD Driver R4.20.0201 on Windows Computer to connect SPD/Unisoc Devices.

But truth be told, I'm not sure if that was the only requirement (because there were also remnants from previous manual install from the link jwoegerbauer provided).

HP Slate 21 ADB and Fastboot issue

Hey all,
Long time no post.
I have an issue with my grandparents' Slate 21. The bootloader doesn't boot into OS. I'm no super tech nerd, but I have done Android reinstalls on Xiaomi Pocophone F1 and Samsung Galaxy S4 I-9505 with TWRP.
To install TWRP on the Slate 21, all you need is a male-to-male USB A cable and ADB.
My issue. I have downloaded many drivers (ADB&Fastboot, Google USB driver) and used methods such as
updating "Fastboot" driver software via device manager to a specific driver
manually installing drivers (Right-click -> Install)
switching USB ports
When I type in
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
or ANY
Code:
fastboot
command I always get
Code:
<waiting for any device>
. I have tried everything, so I came here as a last attempt. I will give any info you need because my grandpa needs this Slate.
Some info:
I installed ADB and Fastboot via the "15-second installer"
Fastboot loads correctly on the device itself
I cannot access Developer options because it doesn't load to OS
I use Windows 10
Love,
Nerijus

Simply installing drivers you don't know what they are meant for makes no sense at all, IMO:
Google's USB driver you installed is only applicable for Google devices ( e.g. Pixel, Nexus ).
You have to install the "Android USB Driver" suitable to mentioned phone.
BTW: To get the most accurate ADB & Fastboot drivers use my tool what is linked to in my signature.

The issue might be USB 3.0 ports.

If you say so ...
IMO your issue has nothing to do with of what type an USB port is.
The differences between USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 are
You can transfer data at up to 4.8 GBit/s with USB 3.0. That is ten times faster than with USB 2.0, which has a maximum of 480 MBit/s.
USB 3.0 works full-duplex. This means that data can be transferred in both directions. With USB 2.0, you can only transfer data in one direction at a time.
The maximum cable length with USB 3.0 is limited to 3 meters. USB 2.0 cables can be up to 5 meters long.
Never heard / read that ADB & Fastboot drivers depend on type of USB port.

My laptop's USB 3.0 ports completely failed to unlock Xiaomi Pocophone F1's bootloader. Meanwhile, my old PC did it easily on the first try and it has USB 2.0 ports. Weird. Might be the reason.

Seicane 9 All-In-One Android 10 GPS Navigation system

So i just recently purchased a car and inside it has an after market tablet with android auto installed. The guy that previously had the car set it up and none of it is updated i was wanting to start fresh since all his info is still in it. " Songs, videos and such ". I have never installed a rom / mod for android auto i know this is the device that is in the car: Seicane 9 inch All in one
This device has a steering wheel control which i dont want to lose that feature as it is very convenient. I do not know where to start for this model of android auto. I dont have a rooted Cell phone and i don't want to root it.
Please guide me in what i should do im pretty tech savvy just dont know where to begin on the forums.

Hint: Add Seicane 9 All-In-One Android 10 GPS Navigation system to front of this thread's title thus mainly owners of such device get addressed.

The device has an USB port. Check out whether you can access device's Android via USB cable by means of ADB or not. This requires in device's Android -> Settings -> Developer optins "USB Debugging" must got enabled before.
If not done yet, install ADB on your Windows computer: See my signature for the link to its installer.
You connect Windows computer with device and run on Windows command prompt
Code:
adb devices
