So here I am with a new Nexus 7 (2013) 32gb. I came from a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and I have to say I'm happy with it so far. Everything works fine on the tablet itself, yet I'm having one problem. Well, a few.
When first connecting, it wouldn't show up as a device in my computer. Not a drive, media player or anything. I've gone through lots of steps, tried on both my Laptop (Win7 Home 64bit) and my desktop (win7 pro 64bit) both of which are up to date.
I've installed the ADB Composite drivers and several others. Each time I try a new one, I uninstall the old ones and select to remove them while doing so. I've removed all Samsung software and drivers as well.
On my laptop it shows up under "Portable Devices" as a "Nexus 7", on my desktop it showed up under "Samsung Devices" as Google ADB or something, I'll have to plug it in there and check.
I've got it to work on the laptop as a "Nexus 7" right now, but when I do a file transfer, it starts to go but then it freezes after a while.
The tablet is set up as MTP and USB Debugging is off. If I turn it on, it shows as a different device and sometimes work, sometimes doesn't. When I set it up as PTP, it won't let me create folders or copy to it. It also doesn't show me all the folders on the tablet itself.
Is there some method that has been figured out to wipe everything as far as drivers go and install it once and for good as a stable device without having to root or do a factory reset?
Right now I'm trying out Airdroid just to see if I can get some stuff copied over. This was the point of me getting the 32g version, so I could copy some things over.
The funny thing is yesterday when I copied over 8gigs of videos and other stuff, it worked fine. Today I'm trying about 1.2g of pictures all in folders and it freezes about ten minutes into it if that.
Help?
Edit1: I'm noticing that when copying files over, Windows Explorer freezes. When it does and I restart it, I open up My Computer and I see the "nexus 7" there still, both on the PC and Laptop. But when I try to access it, I can't. Like the Nexus stopped allowing access. I have to unplug and plug it back in or reset it while plugged in to "get it back".
I'm guessing this is a driver issue?
