I'm seeing several different drivers & versions and wondered which is the best driver that works with Win 7 x64?
darkcyber, Try the Naked drivers (uninstall all other Samsung drivers first): ADB/FB Driver Naked Samsung Driver 1.7 Also, put your phone in fastboot / bootloader mode before installing -- or -- PDAnet drivers (I haven't tried these myself, but I've seen many others reference them): 32-bit Windows 7/Vista/XP 64-bit Windows 7/Vista If prompted, specify "Samsung" as your device manufacturer; you can also un-install PdaNet afterwards, but leave the USB drivers intalled. There's also detailed information in the how-to root thread: http://androidforums.com/verizon-galaxy-nexus-all-things-root/469049-how-root-vzw-lte-samsung-galaxy-nexus.html as well as several other USB drivers at the bottom of the first post. Good luck! Cheers and Happy Holidays!
Thanks! I had already downloaded the Naked 1.7 drivers, but then found mention of a 1.9 and something somewhere about a 2, thus the reason I wanted to check to see what was working. I don't have any Samsung drivers installed on my computer right now...only Motorola drivers for my X...so I should be good there. By this "Also, put your phone in fastboot / bootloader mode before installing" do you mean before I hook my Nexus up to my pc? yeah, I had already read through those links, but was just really unclear on the best driver for x64 after reading several had some issues with some drivers. Thanks again! Merry Christmas
Well, member BIGPHILWA PM'd me to let me know that you should put your phone into fastboot mode first before connecting and trying to install the drivers (and I think his experience and what he read over at XDA reinforced this). Merry Christmas to you, too, darkcyber (9 minutes to go for me here in Indy )). Cheers!
so if i downloaded the naked drivers...what do i do with them next? im sooo confused on this part! lol
toker11, Check out this post in this thread: http://androidforums.com/galaxy-nexus-all-things-root/470831-big-how-thread-under-construction-check-back-soon.html#post3711706 That'll tell you how to get them installed. I'll be updating the title of that thread very soon, but the link will work even if it changes. Cheers!
