Solve MTP Issue On Nexus 7 Device Not Detected x64 Windows

How To Solve Nexus 7 Not Detected As MTP in Windows 64bit





I just had my Nexus 7 2012 for quite some time. Last day I tried to record my screen using adb shell in Kit Kat and installed adb drivers. After installing the drivers for adb i tried connecting my nexus 7 to PC and boom! The USB connections gone berserk. It gets connected and disconnected always.  I Didnt have any idea why it was acting like that. For some time Nexus 7 wasnt even detected in my Device manager. That was shocking, as i suspected something wrong with my Nexus. After plugging to again , but using PTP option now, worked, but can only views picture folders.

Anyway i narrowed my suspicions to the following

  •  I have enabled USB debbugging options from Developer Options. It might cause such an issue
  •  The USB cable from ASUS went died.
  • ADB drivers screwed up
Well after a quick thought I focused my thought on ADB drivers. So I went to Device manager while connecting Nexus 7 in PTP mode. 

Here are the steps i did to fix this issue
  • Disable USB Debugging . Connect your Device in PTP mode.
  • Go to device manager : Right click on My computer->Manage->select Device Manager
  • At the top it will list Android device->Nexus 7 . Right click on it and select Uninstall and,
  • Make sure you tick-"Delete Software " option. Press OK
  • Now remove cable from system. and reconnect it.
  • It will recognize your nexus 7 now.

Hope this was helpful for all those who faced similar issues.
