see the topic. Any ideas? Is there a way to connect it? It's connect to my pc, and I have it installed but other than move files onto my storage card I can't do anything else.
you need to connect in active sync mode and not disk drive mode to connect to device centre.
it gives the option when usb is plugged in
This may not be the solution but i had a similar problem, i messed about with some settings before i used WMDC, goto Start/settings/connections/usb to pc
and check ur settings, i had it set to Disk Drive, when i set it to Active sync and enabled faster data syncronisation, it all started working..
slp
Hello.
ok so i plugged to sync it and my computer shows the programs installed and if i want to edit them. so all of the sudden by mistake it started to delete some programs so i just quickly pull the usb wire out and reset it...now a blank white screen that wont go further.
so i downloaded tomal latest one and tried to re do it and now its not going anywhere. i reset, hard reset and tried it all...went to the wiki and even the mtty thing doesn't show usb under ports.
when i now boot it up, it shows the white screen then a black screen with some lines in the middle and at the bottom right corner it shows the specs as follows:
R 1.00.00
G 42.45.P8
O D.08.81 TML
try everything but nothing is happening.
can someone help!
just adding from what is to other posts..looks like its not only me with this problem..i think the rom's are messed up and now the processor is screwed or something
1. Which operating system do you have (Xp or Vista)?
i am using XP pm my PC..but ideally i have vista on my laptop. i just use the xp on my pc for updating rom cuz vista sucks for this
2. Have you disabled "allow usb connections" in Activesync?
yes i have disabled it and tried
3. Did you try to remove your SD and SIM card?
yes i removed both of them
4. if you can't enter bootloader, is your PDA Recognized by your PC over Activesync or without activesync?
computer doesnt recognize that anything is connected. if i reset it alot of times and stuff sometimes a ballon will come up saying the usb device isnt recognized
Have you tried Doc format or MTTY?
In the Wiki it´s explained both process
Hope it helps,

nothing works because the computer doesnt recognize the device when i plug the USB in there.
Problem solved!
Will post details here soon for those who have this problem.
My Vibrant doesn't connect as a data storage device around the time I started using Kies. My phone is 100% stock beyond some attempts to fix the GPS (which didn't work and returned to stock). I installed Kies to do USB tethering and changed the setting on the phone to ask in which mode I want to connect.
Last week I was having trouble with connecting in Kies mode and tethering. I then noticed that I could only connect to the PC when I selected the phone option for Kies and not as a media player or storage device. I proceeded to uninstall Kies from my PC to see if that fixed the drivers. No go. I tried another PC which has never had Kies on it and also no go.
Here are the symptoms:
1) Plug USB cable to Phone
2) Menu on phone shows: Select Kies, Media Player or Storage
3) Select Storage
4) USB symbol appears and goes through connecting to connected state
Normally at this point the Win7 PC will pop-up with an auto start window asking if you want to open the storage device or transfer photos. In my case nothing appears. I also check My Computer and the phone is not mounted it doesn't appear later. I suspect a phone issue. Is there a way to fix this without doing a factory reset? Reboot doesn't change anything.
Anyone know a fix for this problem?
Make sure to use these drivers

Stupid question, but are you pressing "mount" on your phone when your in USB storage mode?
note to self: read OP *before* replying
If it's still set on Ask on Selection try changing it to Mass Storage. I recall reading something that said Ask on Selection doesn't work right. I just toggle it between Mass Storage and Kies manually.

Changed to Developer Mode USB and forced reinstall of the drivers. Thanks for your help guys.
My PC won't find my Wildfire. The problem I have is that it recognices my phone as a "unknown usb device" and I won't be able to transfer stuff between the SD-card and the PC (very annoying as I can't really move music).
I'm running Cyanogen Mod (the stable released 12th of december but had this problem for a while now). It's rooted with unrevoked and the HBOOT usb drivers won't work (reinstalled vista on my pc).
So what should I do?
When you plug your wildfire in, up in the top left hand corner(on the notification bar) you should see two little icons pop-up, One will be telling you that you have connected your phone to a power source and it is now charging, the other allows you to turn on usb file transfer.
Drag down you notification bar and click the one that says something like "file transfer" and it should open a new window... there should be a button at the bottom of the page which allows you to toggle the file transferring on and off, remember to turn it off before you take your phone out, or it will bug the next time and you'll have to reboot your phone and your pc to get it working
Hope this helps,
note* if this doesn't work there is a driver you can download which might make it recognise it, but I believe the above solution should work for you!
Edit:
If you still can't find it i'll upload a screenshot when I get home
try installing the hboot drivers again.
that solved it for me when my phone wouldn't be recognised, funny thing was it stopped recognising after i was charging my auntie's ipod. LOL
I would reinstall the drivers but it doesn't show up as a "Android Device" (or what it's called) in device manager.
I don't even have HBOOT USB as an option on the bootscreen. (with the USB plugged in)
UPDATE: Installed and uninstalled HTC Sync to get the drivers. Still an unknown usb device on which I can't install the special HBOOT drivers and still no HBOOT USB on boot screen even when plugged in.
If your phone is rooted, HTC sync could be your problem.
Had the same problem.
This is how I solved it, from the HTC support page:
Tips 1:
If you cannot see the HTC Sync option when you connect your phone to the computer via USB, please follow the
Instructions below:
1. Make sure you select USB Debugging in Settings > Applications > Development before connecting your phone to the computer
2. Connect you Phone to the PC and wait 20 seconds for your phone to install HTC Sync on your phone.
3. Unplug the USB sync cable. Wait for 5 seconds. Reconnect the Phone to the PC using the USB cable.
4. Select “HTC sync” and wait for HTC Sync to recognize your Phone. This process could take up to a minute your first
time connecting to the computer.

Or just install pdanet on both computer and phone, it will automatically install the drivers too. After that you can easily uninstall pdanet from both computer and phone, the drivers will stay installed.
hello, I had the same problem, cm since I upgraded to, I can not sync my windows with wildfire, and I found an alternative way to synchronize your PC and the wildfire MyPhoneExplorer excellent! really good!
I'm having the same problem, I can't access my Wildfire through my PC.
My PC recognizes the device but I can't access the SD-Card as it says 'Please insert a disk'. It's just charging, no option to establish a connection to the disk drive.
I tried several things, including the USB-debug mode which didn't work out. With MyPhoneExplorer I have a connection to my phone (can see calls, messages and memory status) but when I want to view the files on my SD-Card it pops up an error message saying "OBEX protocol couldn't be initalized! Phone didn't answer'.
Please help me how to connect my Wildfire again!

Same problem here.. LG doesnt take care of such things.. no wonder Samsung is taking the market..
I just connected my AT&T v20 to my aliensware 15r2 laptop and was able to import my pics with no issues setting my phone to ptp. Then to access both the internal storage and sd card through file manager I set phone to mtp.
I did nothing special just plugged in phone to laptop and selected what setting on the phone. Oh and running win 10. So don't think its the phones software but maybe your computer missing certain drivers or something. So hope this helps

Anyone have issues after applying liquid spray for a screen protector? I just finished applying and now whenever I connect the phone LG V20 it still thinks its connected to usb. I restarted phone and it went into update firmware connection screen. I had to get into recovery and clear dalvik and cache and it rebooted and everything is working again. I transferred files from PC and again the same issue. Could it be liquid damage? Or is this something else? Thank you.
You'll need to turn on the Developer Option and then scroll down to Select USB Configuration > MTP > ok This is what I did to enable my desktop to read my LG V20 SD Card and memory.
Could it be a cable issue? I was warned once.
In fact, looks like nothing happens on my pc but I can browse the internal memory n sd card.
"Have you tried turning it off and on again?" - it crowd
Seriously That was the solution for me... (Oh, I miss that show so much )
