Hi all,
I'm experiencing the above problem. It started last week when I tried to reflash the firmware to a third party firmware. The unit could power up as normal, wifi, bluetooth all working fine but not the USB. I've tried installing a utility which switches the mode from RNDIS to USB but it still failed .. hard resetting the device does not help either. Is there a way that I could revive the USB connection? I couldn't sync my contact etc at the moment with my PC.
BTW, currently I'm on Onyx Jr. 4.1.2. I could not update to any firmware due to this and I don't have microSD to SD converter which I could use to copy the firmware to the microSD.
TA.
Disconnect sync cable. Reconnect to different usb port on computer. Right click ActiveSync in taskbar. Click connections. Make sure "Allow USB connections" is checked. If above fails, uninstall usb adapter in device manager, reboot computer. It'll reinstall with stock drivers after reboot.
It may happen due to faulty USB cable. Try and use another cable and on some other computer and check
I've tried all that I could think off including removing activesync and reinstalling it back. I've few miniUSB lying around and I've tested many of them but my notebook just did not want to recognized the htc touch. I've tried using those cables with my wife's tytnII and they worked .. could it be the hardware problem inside htc touch itself?
Tried with a new USB cable found in my newly bought GPS and if I reseat the cable properly, my notebook could recognised the htc touch. So I guess a new cable does help.. thanks all for the help.

- Hard reset & soft reset on the device
- Reinstall Activesysn
- Activsycn is set as usb in the device
thanks much.

Confirm your hardreset(many doesn't realised what they did is just softreset)
Try different cable different PC.
Use Wm5torage to test if you want.
Try activesync via IR/bluetooth.
I have tried all of these and none of these response (bluetooth, iR, different pc, etc..) . Can I reflash my ROM from mini SD.
thanks,
hn

Can you get into bootloader mode (The 3 colorbars)??? If yes, plug in the usb and see if it reads in the lower corner (it will say usb). If yes, you should be able to re-flash your phone, and from what you wrote, it sounds as if the usb will read...however, if your usb port is damaged, you may have a bigger issue to deal with.
For more detailed info, click the linky in my siggy. It is the most complete thread I know of about saving a wizard from death.
Most wizards can be saved...mine wasn't but mine was severely damaged...that being said, the thread linked below gives great info on various methods.
Also, if it is an active-sync issue, it can usually be corrected.
Read the thread, see if any of it helps, then report back if you need more help.
I can get into bootloader mode (The 3 colorbars) I then plug the usb to my pc and usb see it for 2 seconds and it disappears saying "USB is not recognized". When I try to flash the "RUU_wizard_225111_22511102_02252_CWS_wwe" downloaded from htcwizard website and i get " ERROR [260]: UPDATE ERROR".
Hello!
I've bought used Magic few days ago, and last night I wanted to root it, but when I try to connect it with computer - nothing! No USB icon on Magic, no new device on PC, just charging. I have original 1.6 android on it. Tried 4-5 different USB cables.
What can I do? Is there any way to fix it? Can I do rooting and flashin new rom from SD card, without usb?
turn on usb debugging in settings/applications/development
Already tried that. Doesn't help.
BUMP
Anybody?
could be a problem with your usb port on computer, try another port or try the phone on another computer and see what happens. also did you try the usb headphones ? are they working fine?
Hello,
** I posted this in the Windows forum but I have since flashed to Android and the problem continues so i'm posting on here for hope that someone will help **
I recently successfully installed Windows Phone 7 rom onto my HTC HD2. The phone was working fine and would charge the battery when connected to a dedicated charger on the wall plug as well when it was plugged into another computer. I recently attempted to plug the phone into the computer via USB only to find it wouldn't recognize it ,no prompts on the computer or the orange light on the phone. I turned off the phone, removed the battery for several minutes, I started the phone up again and it would boot into Windows Phone 7 normally without any errors but still it would not be recognized by the computer or allow itself to be charged by an external battery power. I had read somewhere that if I where to select Mass Storage option off the bootloader that it would charge the battery and create a partition on the computer. Huzzah! the computer recognized the partition, but the battery still wasn't charging. Here are the direct steps that I took since I got the phone:
Phone: HTC HD2 T Mobile
1. Unlock the phone (successfully)
2. installed HSLP3
3. Flashed Radio leo 2.15.50.14
4. Installed/Flashed MAGLDR113
5. Using USB Flasher installed the LEO70_ROM
6. Flashed Android 2.2
That's all no settings afterwards were messed with, and Windows phone 7 came up normally and worked perfectly.
Side notes:
-I have tried multiple micro USB cords and different Socket Wall Chargers.
-I have tried multiple computers that never had the phone installed on it before and it won't recognize it.
- USB Flasher on MAGLDR does work, the phone recognizes that it is connected to the PC and the PC installs the drives when applicable.
- Boot loader (multi color screen) also isn't recognized on the computer when connected in that mode.
- I have used USDEVIEW to uninstall all USB connections installed previously on the computer and still it does not pick up the phone.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mr_Pickles
I have a question, when you connectcyour HD2 to your computer via USB while in bootloader you do not get USB in the white bar of bootloader or HTC USB sync in the safe to remove device?
Have you checked your battery pins on your HD2 to makecsure none of them are out of alignment or bent in any kind of way?
Also your HD2 should show up as MAGLDR in the safe to remove thing when you havecit connected to your computer and select option #4 USB Mass Sty or option #5 USB Flasher.
Hi T-Macgnolia,
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly, please see below for answers to your questions.
Q: When you connectcyour HD2 to your computer via USB while in bootloader you do not get USB in the white bar of bootloader or HTC USB sync in the safe to remove device?
A: No it doesn't, the White bar stays at "Serial" and HTC USB Sync does not appear on the "Safe to remove Device" section on the computer.
Q: Have you checked your battery pins on your HD2 to makecsure none of them are out of alignment or bent in any kind of way?
A: All battery pins are straight, there are none that are bent or out of alignment.
Q: Also your HD2 should show up as MAGLDR in the safe to remove thing when you havecit connected to your computer and select option #4 USB Mass Sty or option #5 USB Flasher.
A: Yes, it does show up in my computer in the "Safe to remove" section when plugged in during option 4 USB Mass Storage and option 5 USB Flasher. The phone also recognizes that it has been connected to the computer while in the USB Flasher mode, so I'm still able to flash other ROMS.
I hope this helps you diagnose the problem. Thanks again for your help.

Ok from what you told me you still have working data connection via your micro USB portcon your HD2. The no USB in the white barcode bootloader could probably be fixed by downloading and installing the most recent version of ActiveSync or WMDC from Microsoft, depending on which Windows your computer uses. Those programs contain USB drivers for Windows Mobile devices. But that is just for data transfer not for power transfer.
It kinda sounds like you maybe, and I stress maybe have some problems with the power pins on your HD2. If you have access to a multimeter you could pull your battery outand plug your charger into your HD2 and test from the positive pin to the negative pin (look at the battery to tell which is which) to see if you are getting voltage to the battery.
My best suggestion to you is to flash a Windows Mobile ROM to your HD2 and see if it is charging then. If it does charge you know your micro USB port is working, if it does not charge you have a faulty USB.port. Download and install the above mentioned ActiveSync or WMDC to regain your HTC USN sync while in bootloader.
Hi Mr_Pickles did you ever find a solution to your problem, im having the same issue with my HD2
Yes, I had exactly the same issue. Think it is Window7 related. Found myself a PC with XP, installed active sync 4.5 and solved it
i just got a quantum for work, when i plug it in via the micro usb cable it recognized it, installed drivers and all looks good under device manager.
the issue i get is when i try to plug the phone in to update it via zune, i get a "connection error" please unplug, restart the device and try again. i've tried different computers (both running 7x64) different usb cables, even did a factory reset on the phone to no avail.
anyone have any idea?

Do you have the usb drivers installed correctly? Or try another usb port/ cable.
IVE put the USB driver in the c drive along sid the KIES and still it says its (USB) not recognised. Is there something else i could use instead ,i didnt like kies anyway.I tried to get airdroid to work (ive had that for 3 years) but it doesnt handle software (my phone) 4.4.2 it only does 4.3. It says FORBIDEN.FAILED TO SEND MESSAGE on my PC.
Most likely you are using an outdated version of Kies. There are multiple versions of Kies, ensure that you install the latest version of Kies. Then open Kies and have it detect your phone. That is by far the easiest way to install the proper driver for your S5 model. After the driver is in place you can close Kies and never use it again. Or uninstall it if you wish.
Do not use an USB hub, connect directly to your phone. If you have ongoing issues, use a different USB cable and port. Ensure that you are using a data cable, not a charging (only) cable that has the data lines shorted. If your PC has USB driver issues in general, then you'll need to resolve those issues first or use a different PC.

KIES V3. The trouble is i cant find the USB i now it should be there in the notif panel but it is not, ive got developer options & usb debugging ticked but thats all, have i got to do anything else (hair pulling time) i dont think so?
1) Should i plug it in the mains or usb on the pc
2) Im using the cable that came with the S5 is that good enough.
3) The S5 sits on a cradle shall i take it of.
4) How do i tell data cable, not a charging (only) cable that has the data lines shorted
5) Ive tried 4 different USB software and it gives the message DEVICE DRIVER SOFTWARE WAS NOT SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED every time
6) Ive done a reboot every time the drivers are put it

If you use Windows 8(.1) you have to disable driver signature verification to get the usb drivers installed. Here is a tut. https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorial...abling-signed-driver-enforcement-on-windows-8.

You are juggling too many unnecessary variables. Try to simply that and don't skip checking any of the points.
I have no idea what you mean by plug it in the mains? And at least until you solve this you should not be using a cradle, hub or anything else. As I suggested earlier, connect the phone directly to your computer USB hub. And if you have ongoing problems, try a different cable, USB port or even PC.
Making an assumption that the cable that came with the phone is good enough is counter productive. It's not impossible that it may be damaged or have some problem. Borrow or buy another cable, to eliminate one more possible cause of your issue.
Retrace and double check each step. As soon as you make an assumption that it's not worth checking x step because it couldn't possibly be the cause, you are skipping a possible solution. Make sure that you are using the latest Odin, make sure that you installed it from windows administrator mode, connect directly to the PC's USB port, different cable, etc. If you are methodical, you'll resolve the problem.
Good luck

Have you activated developer oprions and usb debug?

If you haven't given AirDroid permissions to send SMS directly, "FORBIDEN.FAILED TO SEND MESSAGE" might appear. Change the permissions in phone's settings for a try
