Hi everyone. I think some poeple like me have had trouble with connect Nexus 4 like MTP device to Windows XP based PCs. I've found the metod that help to do it and now I can use my Nexus 4 like MTP device and transfers files. Sorry for my English
Only for Windows XP
1. Connect your Nexus to PC.
2. Go to My Computer>Properties>Device Manager and double click on MTP device
3. Go to Details and copy (Ctr+C) info like (USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_00) (you can copy it from here too, if it is identically)
4. Unplug Nexus from PC.
5. Go to C:\Windows\inf folder (it's hidden)
6. Find a file "wpdmtp.inf" and open it with any text editor (Notepad)
7. Modify or Paste (Ctrl+P) what did you copy at step "3" as bottom I showed.

yea windows media player 11 was enough for me

When I allowed my gf comp to recognize the nexus it wasn't so complicated.
Simply install drivers, plug phone and make sure usb debugging isn't on and it should work.

This drove me crazy today on my work PC until I read this thread.

Or you could do it the easy way.
Enable developer mode then enable USB debugging. That's it.

I wish it was that easy but it's not. Read the first post, the line of text needs to be there to get it to work and it wasn't. I believe it has something to do with when Microsoft Media Player updated to version 11.

It is that easy. Try it before posting.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Try reading the multiple threads for various devices on XDA with the same issue with Win XP, THIS is the only solution that worked for me and countless others.
As far as Developer mode/USB debugging being on, I had it on. I can push/pull files, modify framework, etc through ADB...while I'm not a developer I do know my way around Android devices. This simply wasn't an Android issue but a computer one.
So now that you decided to through your $.02 in(which is not the solution) you can go back to posting more useless comments instead of actually trying to help people.

I am not know if this will help, but if you r using windows8 then I recommend you to use Windows 7.
I had a problem with my xs, every time I connect it to my win 8 pc, I got a message that my device is malfunction.
Or
Try removing all drivers and then install them again using driver provided with the flash tool.

If you need to install the fastboot drivers try this
First download the latest fastboot drivers from http://www.multiupload.com/BMJ24IL6XY then right click s1 fastboot then click update drivers. After that click browse manually and select the folder where you kept your newly downloaded files and click ok. It will then install the latest drivers
If you can't get into Fastboot mode try this
Turn your phone off and hold the volume up button but DO NOT hold the power button. Then connect the usb cable whilst still holding the up button. Then the led should turn blue.
Also Windows 7 will have less issues with driver installation
Press thanks if I helped.

[Q] HTC One bootloop

I was trying to flash CWM recovery onto my HTC One using Hasoon2000's toolkit, but I did a mistake and now my phone keeps restarting a second after it boots. I've tried to erase the cache but because the phone reboots so quickly the phone cannot be detected. I know I made a silly mistake and I'm freaking out right now but I really need urgent help now.
Thanks in advance :good:

I could spend a while talking you through it but the best advice I can give you is to forget about the toolkit and read this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2325853
This will push a rom to your phone then just flash it through recovery. It's better to learn using ADB than the toolkit.

Can you still boot into your phone? If you can, just put a rom.zip on your phone and flash it through recovery that way.

Copy and paste your command window or upload a screenshot so we can see what it's saying. Try changing usb ports if you haven't already. What happens when you command 'adb devices'?

I upgraded my primary computer to 8.1 a while ago and was having all kinds of trouble I think the main problem was the hboot but this is very helpful thank you
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

What hboot?
fastboot works just fine once you update your phone to 1.55. Until your at 1.55 though you're boned if all you have is an 8.1 machine and need to upgrade or downgrade.
As an example, if you use the official CMinstaller it'll change you over to hboot 1.44. If you decide you don't like CM, you can no longer RUU back to stock because fastboot can no longer talk to your phone.
(i'm still watching the video but haven't found yet.. i appreciate the time and effort that went into the making of the video as well as the info being shared, but 13+min how-to videos where the author is winging it (ie no prepared outline/script) can get a bit tedious)

This is what's happening to me:
nvm I fixed it. There's another option in dev options.
Thanks!!!

Uncheck and re-check USB debugging then look for the RSA popup on your phone...make sure you check the box to always authorize from this PC

So what do I have to do with an AMD chipset device? The intel extensible drivers won't work if I'm thinking correctly.

Is this really development?
Not that I don't like the content of this thread -- seems good stuff. But is it really well placed in 'original development' as opposed to, say, Q&A or some other general thread space with a [Guide] nomenclature?
Anyway, just sayin'.

Why not just change drivers?
I may be wrong but i had no problems using fastboot and adb on my windows 8.1.
I have Intel(R)_USB_3.0_eXtensible_Host_Controller_Driver installed though instead of the regular microsoft drivers.
.........
Or i could be wrong.
