Do It Your-self :- Your Phone's MTP Drivers for Windows XP SP3

[::Hitesh:: 1,763]

Many of us still using WInXP, some like me uses in dual boot with win7 / Linux.

Some times good old windows is required.

But when using this good old windows, urgency comes and we need to connect our new age phones to windows XP for data transfer.

and suddenly we come to know that, MTP drivers are missing or not supported in this XP.

LOL.... above statement looks familiar ?.... same happen to me today with my XP sp3 and Moto G,

So found a work around and got my Moto G connected to win xp as MTP device without much trouble.

Windows XP sp3 already have MTP support in build, but only dont know which are MTP devices,

So we have to let windows know by adding device's VID and PID to MTP driver INF.

Below is sample of MTP INF, with added MOTO G info in bold letters.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/37hpk21lc26h78i/wpdmtp.inf

above INF file is original windows INF for MTP drivers with Added Moto G info.
you can copy this to your INF directory and Moto G MTP drivers will be loaded automatically.
INF folder is located inside windows directory  

Above can be done for all mobile MTP devices,

you can have a look at this screen shot to get VID PID of device, just copy Hardware ID and replace in INF. and your work is done.

If any one want help in modifying their INF file, do let me know, will do it for you.

Also you can install Windows Media player 11 without activating or validating your windows

Instructions are on below link, most of MTP devices are included in WMP11. (no need of above changes)
