Generic Usb Drivers Android
USB drivers for Android phones and tablets are needed for connecting our devices to the computer. This includes, using the device for development which requires Android SDK USB drivers, ADB and Fastboot drivers, transferring media content and files to your phone storage etc. The following is a generic driver for the devices listed below. Note that all these devices use the same chipsets so the software works on all of them. This is the latest Bluetooth driver for these devices which are listed. Note this driver will work on most Windows operating systems.
Unlike some others, my Android SDK setup went smoothly on my new Windows 7 Pro 64 bit machine. However, I am currently hung up on installing the android usb drivers. What is the current state of this issue? There has been some discussion of this problem on the web but no consensus is immediately apparent.
Fix Android USB Device Drivers Fail Problem with Command Line. Even though we are quite sure that USB drivers can be successfully installed with Method 1 to 3, it is worth a try to fix “Android USB driver fails to install error” with a command line. Run Command Prompt as administrator: for Windows 10/8, press Windows + X, then choose Command Prompt (Admin); for Windows 7, click Start All Programs Accessories, then right-click Command Prompt Run as administrator.

The Android USB driver page for Windows is very misleading, IMHO. It doesn't mention that it doesn't work for all Android devices. It turns out that for certain devices you need to go to the manufacturer's website for the USB drivers, NOT use the generic Android USB driver.
For example, in my case the generic Android USB driver would not work for my Sony Ericsson X10a. I forget the exact error message, but the Windows Device Manager would not recognize the driver software as being valid for the device. But after I downloaded the X10a USB driver from the Sony Ericsson developer website, the Windows Device Manager was happy with it. Then I was able to install my Android development apps on the device and debug via Eclipse/DDMS.
BTW, I too am using 64-bit Windows 7 (which is not the real source of the problem).
jfritz42jfritz42I had the same problem - with OEM drives and Android SDK drivers too. Finally what helped me was:Device Manager - Update Drives Software - Browse my computer for driver software - Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer - Have Disk - Browse for file android_winusb.inf (in sdk folder) - Android ADB
Windows was not able to find drives in folder automatically :-/
I hope it helps to someone...
ban-geoengineeringI tried all this solutions but nothing worked. Finally i found that i need to connect my device as camera and not as media device in phone under 'USB PC Connection' in settings and i got it worked. But really it is a long struggle... :) For more details, see this link..
I hope this will help someone with the same problem.
StrangerStrangerTried this driver from Intel (after checking all kind of drivers (asus, google, samsung kies etc).https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-usb-driver-for-android-devices
and it worked like a charm (after unplugging and replugging the usb from my Nexus 7 and enabling MTP)
The Android Drivers Installation has download package and installation instruction.
If you have installed the driver and it doesn't load... you can try this :In windows 7,
- Go to Computer Management , then Device Manager
- Locate your device...
- Right-click, and Uninstall... (make sure your device is unplugged)
- Then Reinstall it again. (run the driver setup)
This works for me.
