I have installed the 10.1.3 Cyanogenmod Rom on my Nook Tablet, and everything was working normally. Specifically, I could connect it to my Winodws XP system via USB and transfer data via MTP. I wanted to repartition the internal storage from the 11 and 1 GB shared. The process required installed ABD, and I didn't understand at first that this processes required ADB access in recovery mode. I was able to repartition the device the way I wanted and reinstall everything, however, afterwards I could no long access this device over USB as an MTP device, or a PTP device, or a USB device. I think this is probably a driver problem, but I don't know what to do to fix it.
I'm using Windows XP SP3, I have Windows Media Player 11.
When I have My Nook set as an MTP device, the system looks like it is installing an MTP drive, but does not complete. The Entry in device manager only describes is as an "MTP Device" but that there is no driver installed, and keeps prompting in the system tray that it is installing an "MTP Device" driver over and over again.
If PTP is selected, is shows as a USB still camera, but I cannot access any thing on it, and in USB mode I just have a USB device in device manager with an "!" on it.
Any suggestion on how I can get the correct drivers reinstalled?
Thank
For me Unfortunately, MTP application has stopped problem is solved !!!
Read my post #6, problem is solved !!! very minor point but we tend to overlook it...

I have a Gtablet in which I was able to install and use NVFlash. I used the recommended driver for this process and it works perfectly. Now here is my new problem / challenge. I am trying to learn SDK ADB. As parts of the procedures, I have to install the Google USB driver to have the device recognized as an android device (Or something in that line as per the instructions). Here are the problems:
1.) My Gtab show on the device manager as a storage device and a portable device with the same drive letter as the storage device
2.) I'vr tried removing the NVflash USB driver, but it does not uninstall. Every time I re-connect the device it re-install the driver and goes back to problem 1.)
3.) I used (USBdeview) to try and remove the device and the driver from my win 7 x64 but it just don't uninstall or stop the decive or anything.
4.) I tried updating the driver of the gtab (As in problem 1.)) and it says that the current driver is the most appropriate for the device. And goes back to problem 1.)
In other words..... I am tied up with the NVFlash driver (Tegra I beleive, which is the one described on the NVFlash How to). I am trying to SDK ADB, but it will not allow me to connect cause the Gtab is not recognized as an Android device, but as a storage device or nvidia tegra when in APX mode (I beleive it called).
which step am I missing or doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
Please excuse my lack of technical lingo.....
Did you read the sticky message: adb for your gtab (windows) in the general section?
I had the same problem, except I'm using windows XP. The storage device is not the driver to uninstall. Device manager never showed me any other drivers relating to the gTab.
Using USBDeview I was able to see a different driver (can remember was it was called exactly), uninstalled then reinstalled using the usb driver I downloaded from google and everything was fine.
Im so saaad! i think its all my fault.. i copied everything from my galaxy s2 storage over to my new xperia s.. and now it doesnt recognize the phone so i can transfer files..
what should i do ? please help!
btw the phone is just awesome! wauw!
I would also like to know how to properly mount the storage to a PC so that it is recognised as a Mass Storage Device rather than a MTP connection..?
Its so annoying not being able to see thumbnails of the pictures/videos you are trying to access..its also annoying that the PC has to spend time on downloading the files before playing rather than streaming straight from the storage.
Anyone have any ideas? plz..
Rather than starting a new thread I just used this one..thx in advance
When you connect the phone, on notification bar should say Internal storage connected. When you go to My Computer you should see Other section, where new device come up, called... Xperia S. Double click on it, so it goes to Internal storage. Again, double click and... you can see internal content. Hope it helps.
Same thing happened to me.... Today onwards time n again seeing a mtp driver failed issue when connecting to my win7 laptop. It wad working fine earlier. When I switch off n restart the device,it installs driver correctly and autoplay option comes up to open the xperia s device. However when I click on open folder, I dont see any folders in my xperia s phone. Hence no file transfer is possible. How can I get my phone working again?
I tried to do pc system restore... Since it was working yesterday...but that didnt solve the issue either. Any ideas?
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
Do you use different USB ports? Try to stick to only one. I still have XP and mine is always working, so this is definitely PC and windows issue.
I have a Win7 64bit Home Premium edition VAIO.
when I first got the phone, I could use it to connect to PC Companion. It would also show up as a storage device automatically, and using the same I had copied over music and pictures.
However, after 2 days of use, I noticed, my phone was no longer being identified as a device. Also, it gets a Code 10 - Device cannot be started error when I look into the driver details.
I tried to reinstall the MTP driver, but it never gets installed successfully. It always gives a driver failed to install error.code 10.
I can still connect my WD hard disk and other usb devices.
I saw somewhere in the Forum someone had described that I needed to uninstall and reinstall WMP to make this work. Didnt work
I downloaded the Windows DEK to ensure that all the drivers gets reinstalled, that didnt help either.
I also restored my laptop back to factory setting......still no luck with the fresh install.
So, here I am with a phone where I cant connect the device to move in OR out music/pictures etc.
The problems are:
1) MTP driver gives an error while installation. I tried to manually select the MTP USB driver and isntall it. That didnt work either.
2) When I connect SEUS, with the phone restarted by holding the volume button SEUS identifies the phone and shows me that there are no updates. Not sure if SEUS can be used for exploring the phone. Most probably NO.
3) PC companion tries to find the phone. It says it may take few minutes to identify the phone if it has lots of files. After that the operation fails suggesting that PC companion could not find the phone.
I restarted both the phone and my device several times......did not work.
I uninstalled the MTP and USB drivers and restarted and got them reinstalled........didn't work either.
Any idea on what needs to be done?
I have tried all the ports and a different USB cable as well.
I even tried changing settings of the usb port as described in the below link..
Nothing worked
Is it possible to get the Sony specific drivers from somewhere?
Hi has this problem been solved. I have two computers, the win 7 one installed fine but it refuses to work on the xp one.
any help?

I've got the same problem, but you can still use MyPhoneExplorer from
.fjsoft.at
to access your phones data. please also read the forum, because it needs an app on your phone too.
fjsoft.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11454
Also I've called with the xperia help line about a driver pack, but there aren't any lose available, exept what is in SEUS or PC Companion, but they don't work for me.
Can also some tell me if SEUS also will provide the new firmware 6.0.A.3.67? because SEUS tells me that my phone is uptodate, but I still have 6.0.A.3.62.
Install the latest version of media player, that worked for me.
Try connecting phone in Debug mode. On first time MTP driver installation will fail too but after that disconnect phone, disable Debug mode in phone and connect. Now it should working.
If will not working then go to Device manager on your PC, find "Mobile devices", select something with MTP in name, right click and choose "Uninstall". Disconnect phone, connect again and now it should working.
Worked for me!
Hurray! I fixed it on my computer WinXP sp3. I did everything with MTP bla bla winmedia11 even dev kit MTP = No fix.
go to Settings-> apps-> handle apps-> all-> MtpApp <open it.
Clear data and cache. (restart phone if you want)
plug the phone in USB and wait.. the scanner/camera thing comes up.
Right click on This computer (my computer?) chose "Handle" -> device manager -> scanners and printers-> right click on the "phone" -> settings -> device driver-> update.
Chose let windows search for XXX and voila MTP device driver found and installing.
(I'm using Swedish interface so the names of step might be wrong )
I can confirm that delete data / cache on MTP App indeed solved the problem. Thanks
Just upgraded to 4.3 the other day thanks to geohot's towelroot being available.
Everything seems to be working except for an issue connecting the tablet to my Win 7 x64 machine.
After the OTA update, the installation of the MTP drivers failed when I tried to connect to the PC using USB. After a bit of googling I found someone's advice to delete the the cache data for the mass storage app in settings. Did that and the driver installed and all was right with the world.
The following day I had to repeat the above process to connect to the PC. Again windows reported the drivers were installed and everything works fine.It appears that every time I reboot the tablet, I have to delete the mass storage cache before it will connect to the PC in MTP mode.
Anyone else seeing this? I've reset the device a couple of times no fix. I am thinking of doing a repair installation to see if that helps.
Additional Info:
Each time, I clear the mass storage app cache, unplug and reconnect the usb cable, windoze reports reports that the MTP driver has been successfully installed.
I was not able to resolve this issue. After each reboot of the SGP312 I would have to clear the data/cache from with in the APP settings for Media Storage. Each time I did this, the drivers would install on my PC and the tablet was usable until it was shut down again. Attamptiong to access the android usb connection settings reported that the settings app had crashed and usually it was possible to exit out but not always.
The result of all these separate driver installations was a seriously bloated registryand far too many Tablet Z references in the autoplay section on the PC. One thing I did notice was that at the point right after connecting the tablet to the PC via USB, windows device manager shows a portable device named SGP312 and when the driver activation eventually failed device manager reported the SGP312 not working properly.
After clearing the data/cache as outlined above, this SGP312 reference in device manager changes to Tablet Z.
I finally gave up and used flashtool to flash back to 4.2.2. Working fine now.
Hi
Wondering how to set my new z5 in ptp mode, so i can use helium to transfer my userdata from games to new phone.
Im looking for that answer too, just bought z5c.
Hi, I just did a Helium Backup yesterday, you don't actually need the ptp connection. Go into the device manager and right click on "ADB device" (it has a yellow triangle icon on it) and reinstall driver from your pc, choosing "ADB interface". Then disconnect the device from the computer, close helium on the computer and reopen, then reconnect. The connection will establish. That was my experience, YMMV but fiddling a bit can help. I hope you succeed
The steps I did to enable PTP mode so I can use adb:
- plug the phone into the PC USD and install normal drivers
- install Helium backup app on the phone. Run Enable PTP from Helium. It will not work, but will pop an ADB unknown driver in your computers Device Manager
- Download Sony ADB drivers: http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z5-compact-e5803-and-e5823-driver/ and then unzip
- in device manager, right click on ADB Device, Select update driver, select Search Location and point to the drivers unzipped in the step above. Make sure you include Search Subfolders. The driver will be detected and you can install it.
- In helium app, enable PTP
After this I could use ADB!
After doing this, my phone rebooted and then could not be seen by Windows. So there are no recognizable drivers for windows? Sony PC Companion re-install did not reinstate the drivers.
Anyone know how to fix?
Is there any way to access the internal storage through USB without using Huawei's HiSuite program?
I would expect standard mtp or ptp to work, but when I select those options, the only drive that shows up is the HiSuite install "cd".
Thanks in advance!
have you enabled USB debugging on your phone?
If not enable please enable it and try again
I've enabled debugging, but that doesn't change anything.
Surely I should be able to use MTP without needing to enable debugging?
ofcorse, its standart for every phone, but sometimes user dont instal drivers, so we see device, but not storage.
what pc version, mac you use?
on windows, copmuter, right click, device manager, connect phone with pc, there need to be yellow alert simbol, pres on it, instal drivers etc, ofcorse, if you instal hisuite, you shuldnt be problems to connect phone without instaling drivers, because hisuite install all needet things, but who knows, maybe for tohers not working things liek for me
Make sure the drivers are correctly installed for your phone.
In my case, an antivirus software update was causing the MTP driver to malfunction. The yellow caution icon was activated when I went to the 'Connect Phone with PC' tab in the Device Manager (Windows Explorer / This PC + right click / Manage). I opened the antivirus program and it asked me to restart the PC, which I did. After restarting the PC, I connected my phone and I was able to see it as a removable device (a.k.a. external device, a.k.a USB device) and transfer files through Windows Explorer as usual. So, basically, make sure all the Windows Updates and antivirus updates are 'updated'. Best of luck.
