If you have Windows Vista or 7 you can right click my comptuer > Manage > Device Manager (or just call up device manager in xp) and look for ADB Interface.
Right Click HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface and click Uninstall.
Unplug and replug the USB and it should re-detect.
nevermind me =)
Same problems
I am having the same problems as "samrozzi".
Phone is OK with Reboot command.
Will not recognize "Setprop Persist etc".
My device manager shows (HTC Android Phone USB Device) in "Disk Drives" but nothing about ADB interface.
Also you guys are saying
"Go to Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging (check)
Settings where? On the phone? not possible without getting past the registration screen.
In SDK ?
In ADB ?
On Computer somewhere ?
I have un-installed the driver for the phone. I reconnect and turn the phone on. The computer says HTC Google phone--hardware is installed and ready to use. Then it goes away and doesn't seem to be of any further use.
Please help, my brain is starting to sizzle from info-overload.

did you install the driver
USBDeview
Try this:
- get USBDeview : http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
- unplug phone from PC
- in USBDeview delete all drivers that have anything to do with HTC
- plug phone in PC; drivers should now install correctly IF you have downloaded and installed them before
If the above procedure does not work reinstall drivers (from SDK) and start all over.

SO recently got a nexus one and for some reason i cant get it to be recognized by adb, i have tried everything, updating drivers, reinstalling adb, trying diferent usb cables, different usb ports, but for some reason no matter what i try adb doesnt recognize any device. it recognizes my atrix just fine, but not the nexus. and the nexus is also rooted and has cwm but somehow the bootloader says ship s-on. it all seems prtty wierd. any ideas?
I had the same problem once. ADB recognized other devices I had but not the N1.
The driver from this thread got it working for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=613217
Unlocking the bootloader doesn't control whether the secuflag is on or off. If you Nexus One cannot be found by adb, check if you really have working abd drivers. Use this tool to see what usb drivers are installed and delete everything related to the Nexus One and let them reinstall:
http://download.cnet.com/USBDeview/3000-2094_4-10614190.html
If that doesn't work, plug your N1 to your pc for the last time, then press Windows key + r so the "run" box shows up. Type in devmgmt.msc (device management) and press enter. See if something called "android phone" has a yellow triangle. Download and unzip the attached archive. Right click this "android phone" and choose to update its drivers. Locate to the folder you just unzipped and then let the drivers install.
Now it should work just fine. Cheers.

as i told the other 2, it is not a driver issue, it turns out the guy i got it from had work done on it before it was shipped, thinking something internal is the issue
If you have windows, you will need these drivers to use ADB or Fastboot with your Nexus 4. The long method of getting this is downloading the SDK and running it. I have extracted the drivers and put it into a rar file for easy use.
Follow these steps if you haven't plugged your phone into your computer before.
1. Download the file.
2. Extra the files into a folder.
3. Plug your phone in.
4. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
5. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
If you already installed other drivers and they don't work for you. Download the drivers below and follow these steps:
1. Enable USB Debugging on your phone.
2. Plug your phone into your computer.
3. Go to Device Manager on your computer and locate your device. It will either be under "Android Devices" or "Other Devices" depending whether drivers have been installed or not.
4. Right click on your phone and select "Uninstall."
5. In the box that appears, check the option to "Delete the driver software for this device" then proceed.
6. When that is done, go back to Device Manager and refresh.
7. Locate your phone and right click to select "Update Driver Software."
8. When prompted, select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", NOT "browse for driver software on your computer".
9. Then you have to select "have disk" and then point to where you extracted the drivers (the usb_driver folder) to install the drivers.
10. Unplug your phone and restart your computer.
11. Plug it back in and everything should work.

Thanks to efrant for clarifying exactly how to manually select your drivers.
I would suggest everyone download Android SDK.
You have a Nexus device right?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Some people may not want that, or want to have the drivers on their other computer. I for one like having the drivers, I only download the platform-tools folder instead of the whole sdk.
So, thanks OP.
OK... I DL the SDK I'm on win and it says it can't find java even after I DL from java. Any ideas?

Have any other ADB drivers installed? Because then you need to uninstall those:
Go into command prompt and write:
set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
start devmgmt.msc
Delete all devices including driver software in the "Android Device" section.
Then reinstall the Nexus 4 drivers.
If that still doesn't work, update the driver when connected with usb debugging on and manually add by rightclicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software", then "Let me pick from a list..." then "Show all devices" and then Have disk.
Then you simply point to the driver and select the "Android ADB Interface" (Or something like that) it also has driver for bootloader and composite, bootloader is for fastboot, can't remember what composite is for, but you shouldn't use those.
the stuff from Fisker didn't did it for me

but i can't see in adb devices,
any idea?

Go to Device Manager on your PC. If debug mode is enabled, you should see your device listed as an Android phone or something of the sort. If it has a yellow exclamation mark or some sort of symbol next to it, then that means the drivers aren't properly installed. Assuming that is the case, follow FISKER_Q's directions:
Right clicking the device, click update driver software, then the "Browse my computer for driver software." Select the usb_driver folder that you extracted and you should be good to go.

Did you enable debugging on your phone yet?
If not, go to Settings > About phone, then tap on "Build Number" 7 times. Go back to settings and you will see developer options. Go in there to enable USB debugging.
Having the same issue. Fastboot works fine, however I am unable to use ADB (device not listed, however is recognized in device manager without any issues). I have tried uninstalling the drivers, but it re-installs them automatically when I plug the phone back in. Debug mode is enabled.
Edit: Fixed by uninstalling the drivers through the SDK manager, then uninstalling and checking the box to delete the driver software in device manager. Re-installed using instructions and now it works in ADB.

Try leaving the phone plug in. Go to Device Manager. Find the ADB drivers and uninstall it. While in Device Manager, have it scan for new changes. You should see your phone appear. Right click it and manually install the drivers.

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled through Developer Options on your phone. Once done, plug the phone into your computer. Go to Device Manager on your computer. You should either see something listed under Android Devices or Other Devices. If you see something under Android Devices, uninstall it. If you see it under Other Devices, right click it and browse to manually install the drivers. Select the folder that has the drivers in my original post.

I had to put a check in the box next to "Delete the driver software for this device" to get this to work. Otherwise Device Manager will keep detecting the old drivers.
Hi guys,

I got mine working with the following steps, but I had it working on Win8 before updating to 8.1 so it may or may not work for you:
Right click the xt1058 option that shows it has a problem
Select update driver software
Select browse my computer
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
Select ADB interface and hit next
Select Mot Composite ADB interface and click next
After that I was able to get it to connect with mtp, get fastboot responses, and use the adb commands again properly
It works like a charm!

TY SO MUCH, WAS LOOKING FOR FIX FOR HOURS. I didnt notice that option at the bottom im so stupid..
How to get MTP and PTP working
I know this is an old thread. But after an hour of research I figured out the real problem.
You simply can't install the MTP or PTP driver properly because you may have Windows 8.1 Pro N
N is a special version used in Europe where there is no media player and software around it installed to give 3rd party media players a chance.
Howerver, to solve the problem and get the phone found you have to install the device drivers AND the Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1 .
I'm sorry. I would post the direct link to the microsoft download site. But I have never posted in this forum till now and so I'm not allowed to post outside links yet.
But if you copy & paste the following in google you'll be fine and find it in no time: Media Feature Pack for N and KN versions of Windows 8.1
After you have installed it and rebooted your system the drivers are found and you can see your phone (or camera) in the device manager.
Hope that helps some ppl.
I cannot possibly figure out what the heck is causing my Windows 8.1 Installation to not detect my Nexus 6. Google comes up with TONS of results for this issue, but all troubleshooting points to what I have already done.
Plug it in, comes up as "Nexus 6" under "Other Devices" in Device Manager. With the little Yellow ! mark.
Downloaded the USB drivers from here - http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html attempted to install them and I get an error message. After selecting the folder that contains the driver.
"Windows was unable to install your Nexus 6: Windows could not find the driver software for your device. If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit its website and check the support section for driver software"
What I have Tried:
- Installing Drivers with USB Debugging ON and OFF
- Installing Drivers with Connection set to MTP and PTP on the phone
- Disabled Driver Signature Enforcement and attempted to install.
- Downloading Drivers a second time to ensure no corruption was in the file.
- Attempted to install via Android SDK (This appears to work per SDK software, but Device Manager shows no change, and the nexus isnt showing up in Explorer.)
- Tested Nexus on another Device. (Running Windows 7. Literally Plug and play No manual Installation needed. Worked)
I'm at total Loss here, Any other Ideas?
@morbid_bean,
Did you try the Motorola Device Manager >https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that seems to have done nothing
I'd go w/ uninstall all other drivers first, change cables and see what happens.
Try this:
1) Download the driver from the link in your post, and unzip the files to any location;
2) Open Device Manager on your PC and turn on the option to "Show hidden devices" from the View menu;
3) Right click on EVERY item that could potentially relate to your device (e.g., adb interface, composite interface, motorola, nexus, etc.) and uninstall, including deleting the driver.
4) With USB Debugging set to OFF, plug your device into your PC. Windows should automatically install the MTP driver and It should be recognized;
5) Now turn USB Debugging ON;
6) Go back into Device Manager, right click on your device and select "Update driver software";
7) Select "Browse my computer...", NOT "Search automatically...";
8) Click "Browse", and locate the driver you downloaded in step 1.
EDIT: I don't think you have to disable Driver Signature Enforcement, but if it gives you issues, try disabling it.

I understand. OP has diagnosed his problem as drivers, but if his problem is ADB not connecting to his N6, it could be the problem. As I said, it's a long shot.
OP Here with a status update.
Continued to try some other suggestions. Such as another Cable, another USB port, reboots. Hell I seriously went as far as a whole Windows 8.1 Re-install. I had some feeling that possibility because I am rooted its causing issues; so I even went as far as taking my old Nexus 4 and reverted it to 100% stock to attempt to install the drivers and then trying the nexus 6. But I got same results.

When I follow these steps I was successfully able to install drivers for something called "Android Composite ADB Interface"; "MTP" or "Nexus 6" was still failing. Even after switching debugging on. I still unfortunately do not see anything in Explorer that I can access the Nexus 6's files. Maybe this is an indicator that I am getting closer?

When I installed Android SDK, it told me I needed JDK before proceeding with the installation. So I'm pretty sure I did this.

I just realized that the last part on my step 3 was cut off. It should read:
3) Right click on EVERY item that could potentially relate to your device (e.g., adb interface, composite interface, motorola, nexus, etc.) and uninstall, including deleting the driver.
As far as your issue, I'm pretty sure that Windos recognizes the N6 as an MTP device (assuming you have it on MTP) without any additional drivers, so I'm not sure what the problem is. My steps were to get the ADB driver installed, which seems to have worked. (ADB allows you access to your files via command line...)

FIXED IT!
I am running a version of Windows 8.1 known as Windows 8.1 Pro N Essentially this is a slightly stripped down version and does not include "Windows Media Player or other Windows Media-related technologies, such as Windows Media Center and Windows DVD Maker" I managed to get this copy really cheap.
More Info Here
So essentially I needed to download THIS Pack/Update which gave me these special features. Including the resolution of my Driver Problem. Rebooted the computer plugged in my phone and it was detected and installed drivers automatically.
Special Credit to THIS thread for helping me with the answer. I hope this can be added to any Driver Installation Guide or Sticky to assist others that may come across this problem.
Glad you got it resolved. I've never heard of Pro N. Another wrinkle in the Windows 8.1 driver issues, it seams.
Recently I have been deving on a friends nexus 6 with 5.1.1 on it all drivers are installed properly device shows in adb i even get adb root successful but it refuses to adb remount for testing purposes even on roms that have modified boot.img's with init.d in them and ro.secure=0 set and adb persistance is also set so there is no reason for it not to mount. I imagine there could be a problem with it mounting system on boot but I am new to aosp 5.1.1 roms and this solution did not work for me it tells me the windows 8.1 version I'm running is not applicable for this update? So if anyone can lend some assistance it would be much appreciated.
The Nexus 6 is VZW unlocked bootloader and rooted twrp recovery all the latest
currently any rom i try i cant mount through adb so testing for themes is impossible?

My question is: Why would old google universal adb drivers work when everyone else says to use the new google usb drivers in tandem with the Motorola drivers for vzw? Thats the only reason i didnt use the tool is b/c its outdated?

But alas! It does work, I've tested it myself. Also, you can install the most recent drivers optionally.

Yup that didnt work either. I get su in adbshell it shows me # so there is su i just dont get why it wont mount at all or pull or push obviously cant do that if it won't mount. And no tutorial I've followed nor solution has worked thus far. As stated above that solution worked for him with windows media center or whatever but that doesnt apply to me. I've done this hundreds of times with many many many devices on windows 7 I've even done it with 3 devices on 8.1 so far no problems this is the only one to give me issues like this.
It's always a bit of messing around with it to get it to work but this is different i have spent hours going back and forth removing all drivers installing new ones using tools etc.
