how do i get usb in drop down in mtty tool ?

hi - as many of you will know the xda experiance can be an all consuming task .
i after reading many many posts would like some information on how exactly to get the mtty tool to offer me the option of usb so i can connect to my bricked xda exec.
my bootloader screen is severely distored in colour however i can get back and forth to the promt for "press x or 0 " to reset / exit. it seems this proble m is not unknown however i dont seem to be lucky when it comes to the mtty tool.
any help would be greatly appreciated : thanks in advance.

Did you disable Activesync on your PC first?
Find the (two) executables in taskmanager and end task.
V

True. And make sure you're not running Vista! (bricked my phone for a few days until I could fix that)

would you share HOW you sorted vista bricking your uni? i've had to send it for repairs because nothing i could do fixed it.
i tried updating the firmware to another of helmi's cooked roms. i've flashed the device many times and used all sorts of people's roms, and i think it was the time i switched to VISTA that bricked it.

My solution
Take the sd card from the phone... duh
It was giving the same error, when i took the card it started to work...

Strange, I never have a problem with the sd card or sim card in the phone
[1]
First make sure active sync is not running, you may have to kill the process wcescomm.exe (CTRL+ALT+DEL, Processes TAB, right click on process and End Process Tree)
[2]
If that doesn't work, change the usb cable, every time i encounter that problem - it is nearly always the usb cable, if you have a canon digital camera, those cable works for me about every time

No man... i've been tryin to get USB in dropdown list but never appears. I'm so tired of incomplete answers. I'm using vista and i kill every process indicated by you.

Did you or did you not post multiple threads on the same problem?

Try this instead of mtty.
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/nueTTY-Console-71189.shtml
Its a console that diables everything automatically.
It worked a treat for me. My phone was stuck in bootloader.... no ROM or SPL would flash (stuck at 0%) I couldn't get mtty to give me "USB" from the dropdown in Vista.

I can't get into the boot loader so it says "USB" in the bottom white area... even though USB cable is inserted, of course. If I boot up with device with USB cable inserted the only thing that happens is that the white area is blank. When unplugging the device "Serial" is written, but plugging the USB cable back in doesn't change a ****... stills says "Serial"...
Any clue, USB connector defective? Tried two cables.
nueTTYConsole says the following:
Code:
Disabling RAPI...Already Stopped!
Searching for CE USB devices to connect...
No devices found to connect, aborting...
Not restarting RAPI because it was already disabled.

critical problem in jamin for help please

My friend's jamin when he tried upgrading with smart1 wm6
after the flashing process finished it gives the 3 colors of boot loader
the screen flickers continously with the 3 colors
no way to hard reset the device
and activesync doesn't feel it
I searched all the forum for a problem like this but I didn't find any
any suggestion please, or any help?

Flash NVID Rom and try Smart again. Read WM6 upgrade Manuel and readme for the ROM.

Please how can i flash with the activesync doesn't notice my device and where's NVID Rom
Ok. I'll search for it but please help how can I flash it to the device which doesn't recognized or felt by PC

If your device is in bootloader mode, activesync cannot recognize it but this is normal. Jamin is recognize only as a usb device and you can downgrade it to NVID rom easly.
Then you could upgrade your favorite rom, I suggest PDAVIET 4.0.0.1
Bye for now

I think I didn't discuss the problem well
The Problem is when I start to flashing a rom a message tells that check if the usb is connected and if the device is connected .
This is happen with the device is connected to the cable and the tricolor screen is flicking . and the device doesn't open doesn't flashing.

must use NVID rom. maybe qtek nvid one from here? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs

If the problem still there, Try to release the battery for 1-3 hours and put it again to the device, go to the boot loader and pray. Hopefully it could work. Actually, this way worked on my Himalaya and Prophet.

Just run the "Step 1" component of the PDAViet ROM (http://rapidshare.com/files/32728615/Prophet_PDAViet_Step1.zip), which is just a plain AKU 2.20 NVID. This will find your device even if its in bootloader mode (it doesnt depend on activesync). Just flash it with that sucker and you should have a working phone on WM5, then you can safely upgrade it to WM6 (or leave it if you like).

Error 260... If i remember correctly that's "cant find device" or something.
Few things to check:
Is the PC you are upgrading on running windows vista?
If so, use a different PC running windows XP.
Have you tried a different USB cable?
If not, do so, this tends to be the cause of problems like this.
Have you checked device manager?
Go to control panel, Administrative tools, computer management, device manager and see if you can find your device. If it has a yellow ! icon on it or is listed as "Unknown device" or anything like that then you may need to reinstall the drivers (int hsi case the easiest way to do that is to reinstall activesync). If everyhting is working properly it should show up as "HTC USB Sync", "PocketPC USB Sync" or something like that under the heading "Mobile Devices".
Have you just plain tried another computer, regardless of the OS?
I found that I could never get my phone to flash on my laptop, but it worked without a problem on my desktop. This is not to say laptop's cant do it, it simply means some computers just have problems like (in my case i believe) no USB 2.0, or too low-powered USB ports.

Rom has got nothing to do with Activesync not detecting your phone,it's most probably the problem of Activesync application or your USB cable not establishing connectivity.Check the usb connectivity for problems.To verify the connectivity,check if it gets charged via usb connection.
secondly,get your phone into bootloaders and connect it to your Pc via usb cable,see if usb appears at the bottom of the bootloader mode (multicolor screen),if it then it's connecting.
You don't need Activesync for flashing a Rom to your phone,it's done via usb cable,and while flashing activesync is automatically turned off by the Ruu.So if you are able to establish connectivity via usb cable in bootloaders (multicolor screen) you can flash to any Rom.
Cheers

no connection with pc

hi
i have a htc touch elf0100 and i'm having a lot of trouble trying to get a connection with my pc. i already read every post here and i don't seem to find the solution to my problem.
here's the thing. i make a hard reset because i was having a lot of trouble with the room that i have so, i decided to make it, but when he reboot it won't pass by the align screen and now i'm stuck in the boot loader screen.
it says that the ipl is 2.27.002 and the spl is 2.28.0000, what i need is to make a connection with my pc so i can flash the room with the one that i have. i try with the mtty but i just can't get the usb port open, and i have try everything.
my o/s is win xp sp3
so please if someone could help me, i'll be very thankful
and i'm sorry about my english, bye.

i think the problem is in mini usb port in ur elf. go to htc customer care.

before sending it off to the care center maybe try a different cable
also..when you plug your device in,does it charge?
I kinda had the same problem which disappeared after a while...

cable
I too had a smiler issue, now Im using the cable that came with my camera, and it works perfectly.

I just have the same problem,changed usb cable,tried on other pc with activesync 4.5 but again csn't syncronize with the phone.plz help.

maybe u can't believe this but i tried device reset via phone menu,then synchronization done ok.

[Q] HD2 and ActiveSync.

Hi all.
I just a got a HD2 today. And the first thing that came in my mind was "Let's go to xdaDev to get a nice custom rom". I downloaded one.
After that I put the usb and try to make it syncronize. And the problem is here : ActiveSync dont reconize the phone. I spent the last 4 hours to google why it shall not work. I tried to unstick option at "Start=>Settings=> Usb to PC" but it dont work. Nothing more after perfoming a hard reset and reinstall ActivSync.
But something is strange : When I go in the bootloader, there is the 3 color screen and the phone Display "Serial" at the bottom of the screen ; and when I start it again with USB plugged, it doesnt display "USB" instead of "Serial" it's just void and if I remove the USB "Serial" is displayed.
Plz help me to make the phone syncronize .
I use Windows XP (no firewall, no antivirus) and an official Orange Rom. My SPL is 1.42.0000. I just hope there is no hardware problem ...

Some news ...
The HD2 isnt detected on 2 other PC (Both Win XP). I managed to syncronize my old Diamond too, and it worked well. Same with a HTC Touch and a Touch Cruise, the 3 ones works.
I also tried to use Bluetooth to get an Activesync connection and this time, it noticed the HD2 but no way to get a synchronization.
Any ideas ?

Try this: goto Settings, Other (Miscellaneous settings), USB to PC, Enable faster data data synchronization. Try to tick and untick the last setting.

It doesnt work . I'm trying to follow a "GoldCard" tutorial to flash to an official HTC rom. Maybe it's Orange operator rom ... But if you have any other suggestion, let me know

I can't believe that it's such a s*** to just connect the last HTC phone to a computer. The tutorial need ActiveSync to get the SD card ID so I will not succes in this way.
Is there another software that can be used instead of ActiveSync ?

Did you flash any rom at all or are you still stock?
If you have flashed already, Have you tried to go back to the default shipped rom using sd card (not goldcard)?
Find the rom that shipped with your device, extract the RUU_Signed.nbh file from it, copy it to your fat32 formatted sd card, rename leoimg.nbh, put card in phone, boot phone with down volume held, hopefully you get the message on the three colour screen saying something like 'press volume up to start' or somesuch.
THis should not only flash the rom, but also fix spl if it has become corruptted(which appart from hardware errors is the only reason i can see that it wouldn't recognise a USB connection)
Make sure it is the correct rom for your phone, though, correct vendor and region id.
I must say if you havent flashed yet it sounds like a hardware fault with teh usb cable/connector

I'm currently running a stock Rom from a french operator nammed "Orange". I haven't flashed anything since ActiveSync just dont want to know anything about my HD2.
Maybe I shall send it back to the seller. That's so frustating ...
If i dont find a way to solve this problem until the end of the day, I will return the phone.
Anyway thx for trying to help me

To me either the cable or the phone is faulty. Try another cable if you have one, if not just have the phone exchanged.

Ah in that case then i'd seriously consider taking it back /sending it back. Especially if you have tried more than one computer, sounds to me like faulty cable or USB socket.

You must be right. I tried everything and I never had so much pain with my others HTC to get syncronization

I had the same problem not beeing able to connect to the internet via computer. After playing with the activesync settings on the Computer -> conection settings-> ticking on and off some of the boxes->ok, it worked again.

I have connected to three of these phones ( 2 french 1 english) and no problem whatsoever, everything happens without needing to touch any of the settings...is your pc even recognising that something is being plugged in on the USB?
Have you installed the latest version of activesync?
If you have done all the obvious things and it still does not work, the phone or the cable is defective...It should connect straight out of the box with a standard, un changed version of activesync.
Send it back!
