MT65xx Android USB Driver problem

[morrell]

I have been loaned a Kazam Trooper2 4.4 mobile and after enabling Developer Mode and USB Debugging on the mobile I'm unable to connect LC to it using my Windows 7 64bit PC.

In Control Panel Drivers/Other Devices my mobile is identified as MT65XX Android. However it has the Yellow error icon and when double clicking on it the window says ' The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28). There is no driver selected for the device information set or element. To find a driver for this device, click Update Driver and this I did which did not find the driver.
So once again after hours researching it appears I'm missing the MT65XX driver. So I downloaded a 'MT65xx_USB_Driver' zip file and extracted these folders and files:-
Folder MT65xx_USB_Driver - which contains sub folder usb-driver - which contains 2 sub folders amd64 and I386
and the 4 files - android_winusb.inf - androidwinusb86.cat - androidwinusba64.cat - source_properties

I then did a 'Pick from a list of drivers' on the Device Manager (see zip) and again it failed.

Can anyone help please?

Kind regards,

Ruth

Hi Ruth, welcome back and sorry about your loss.

At stage 4, did you browse to the sub folder containing the 64 bit driver?
If you did, try just selecting the USB driver folder containing those subfolders before clicking next, and letting the installer find the right files in the sub folder.

Thank you Sparkout.

I tried it and used the SDK files as it had a later date than the one I downloaded. But it failed again as you can see from the image.

I did contact Kazam and to their credit they did reply, but only with how to update drivers from Device Manager which I already knew. So I replied back three days ago asking if they could supply the driver and so far no reply.

Regards,

Ruth

Did you try with the mt65xx driver that you downloaded before without the specific subfolder selected, just the one containing the subfolders?

[morrell]

Yes I actually did that SparkOut before asking help on here, as it was on the How to instructions when I first downloaded the MT65XX zip file.

Hi Ruth,
Android USB drivers often work intermittently or not at all.
I had a lot of issues accessing Samsung devices with USB; I gave up after reinstalling drivers many times.

I would bypass the USB port and either:
email the apk to your device.
Use Dropbox to access files to your device.
Or use a wireless network.

The method I use now is to connect to the device using wifi on a network.
This makes testing android apk's quick and easy.
Method:
Set up a home network on the PC and set advanced sharing settings >> enable public folder file sharing.
Drop your LC standalone apk files into the Windows\User\Public folder.
Download and install the free version of Total Commander to your Android device from the Play Store.
Also install the LAN plugin for Total Commander if asked.
Now using Total Commander, open the LAN (windows share)/PC/Users/Public folder.
Find and install the apk to the device from inside Total Commander.

Kazam finally answered today and sent me an INF file, but no driver file which I thought would also be required. However, they failed to say just where this file should be placed so I can call it from Device Manager (I have asked them but presume it will be another two weeks before they answer).
Perhaps someone here knows where it goes and appended below is the INF code.
