I've tried installing the HTC Sync software by itself. I've tried manually creating prog files(x86)\htc\drivers\vista64 whatever. I've tried restarting the phone, and the computer. I've tried different memory cards, different USB cables, different USB ports, it REFUSES to work.
Windows 7 will say "Installing/Installed USB Mass Storage Device," the phone shows up in devices/printers and device manager, but I can get no further, and I cannot access the memory card or the phone storage in any way shape or form.

To get into the SD Card, are you pulling down the "Window Shade" and selecting USB Connected > Mount
To Sync do the same thing and select HTC Sync?
I don't mean to point out the easy questions I just noticed the low post count and figured you may be new. This stuff isn't exactly automated.
Under your device manager, is your phone called "My HTC" under "Android USB Devices"?
You need to make sure that you right click your phone after connecting it, and update the drivers manually to the Vista x86 / x64 drivers.

You also might try an older version of HTC Sync. I had to use an older one on my work laptop before Windows 7 would properly recognize it. I'll find that version # when I get to work and let you know. I think it had a 4 in it, like maybe 2.0.4. The newer versions had issues with 7, not sure if they still do, but it's something to try.

^^ what he said.
Also, I checked, and the version I am using is HTC Sync 2.0.8 downloaded straight from HTC's sprint hero website.
I know I've read in the past though, that the USB drivers from 2.0.4 worked better or something like that, so I seem to remember installing that fully (choosing both sync and USB to install) and then uninstalling, keeping the drivers intact, and then installing 2.0.8 and NOT choosing usb driver.
Do some reading if 2.0.8 doesn't work for you, and maybe you'll retrace the steps I took.
Here is what I did to make it sync with HTC Sync 2.0.18:
1) Connect the HTC Hero and let Windows install the drivers
2) Go to Devices and Printers
3) Right Click 'Android' and go to the Hardware tab
4) Click the ADB Interface and then click Properties
5) Click update Drivers
6) Click Browse My Computer for Driver Manually
7) Click Let My Pick from a list of Device Drivers On My Computer
8) There should be two listed, click My HTC and hit Next
It should sync after that.

This was my problem. I wasn't pulling down the damn window shade and telling the phone to mount the stupid volume.

One other interesting detail... When I turned on USB debugging, the HTC Sync software actually worked properly and did what it was supposed to do...

Hi,
Previously I was running Black 3.0 and was synching with Vista and had no problems.
I recently updated the ROM to Black Satin and now I cannot sync.
When I connect the device to my computer it initially recognises it and gives an option to create a partnership but then it disappears and it says that no device is connected.
Does anyone have an idea of what could be wrong or of ways of fixing it?
Thanks.
Also..
I have followed the guide here http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/vista/index.html for vista and I get an error installing the drivers (error attached).
I have also turned off advanced usb networking..

First, be sure you're running the latest WMDC 6.1. Then reboot both the computer and the device. If that doesn't fix it, click on Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC and check or uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality".
Then... report back.
yup I have done all that
Rebooted about 20 times (pc+device) even tried reflashing different roms but still no go!
Have unchecked advanced networking..
Make sure you have the right driver from VistaRUU.zip floating around. I did these exact steps last night and am also running Black Satin. I don't have a problem. Be sure to re-check the box that says allow USB connections.
Good luck. Try going over all the steps in case you might have missed something.
Spathi, in your case, you may just need to re-download the Hermes USB drivers.
P.S. I did also update my SPL to HardSPL2.0
I have tried installing the drivers numerous times.
I have tried the drivers from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=33892&d=1170385335 and here

I am on 64bit Vista and have downloaded the 64bit drivers and turned off driver signing..
My phone has SPL 2.10lipro which I believe is the latest?

i had the same problem a little while ago. search my user name for posts and you'll find the thread. but the solution was... uninstall wmdc reboot, and download and reinstall. works like a charm.
I HAD the same problem.
OK.. I had the same problems, troubleshooting with MS for $35.00 didn't solve it. The one thing that did solve it is kind of ridiculous and easy.. So here's the solution..
It turns out Vista has issues with detecting USB drivers on certain types of chipsets. It looks like the USB ports are correctly installed, but it just doesn't like the devices (like Smartphones) connected to it.
I solved the problem by buying a USB card with a VIA chipset. It's amazing how well it works now. Of course, I discover this AFTER a reinstall of Vista and everything else.. Duh! Ugh!
Hope this helps other people feel less pain.
-Percy
I have tried the uninstall/reinstall thing before (just tried it again) no luck there.
I just tried another usb card and that didnt work either.
Only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling windows...
mine is more weird
upgraded from wmdc 6.0 to 6.1.6965 now when it bootloader, wmdc doesn't even connect at all. even return to wmdc 6.0 doesn't solve the problem
There are a couple of things with Vista..
I figured out these few little nuggets during my travels..
1. Make sure you have all the newest updates. (MS apparently knows of this problem as they have released a patch to resolve some USB issues)
2. The external USB Card you try has to have the VIA USB Drivers.
3. Update your bios to something newer (also a big problem)
4. Turn on Legacy Support for USB (important too)
5. Disable your ACPI if you're having troubles.
6. Have you tried connecting the device directly to the MOBO USB Ports?
I can't stress this enough.. the VIA USB Chipset seems to work so if you try an external card, make sure it has a VIA chipset on it. They're completely different than the standard Vista USB Drivers.
For those that are having problems - check on your desktop system in the device manager to see if you have the "Microsoft Remote Mobile Adapter" installed as a network card. If you do, uninstall it. This driver gets in the way of the WMDC 6.1 connection with USB.
It apparently gets loaded if you attach your device while having "advanced networking" enabled in the PC->USB setup on the device. Once you've done that, you're stuck. Turning off the "advanced networking" on the device won't help, because that remote driver is already loaded. You need to disconnect your device, unstall that driver, be sure "advanced networking" is turned off, and then connect your device again. I've had this happen a couple of times to me after re-flashing the ROMs.
Brian.
I've been searching a lot about this and just can't figure it out... I can sync my tytn (8525 as I call it) with windows media player, but can't do it with "windows mobile device center". Actually, everytime I click on wmdc, it opens up the "Change Connections SEttings" where it says "Device Connected" up top but then I click on ok and apparently nothing happens...
So just recently my usb and sd card decided to malfunction. My usb will charge via my pc but it comes up on the pc (Vista 32bit) as 'Windows cannot recognise this device' my drivers are up to date. However in my device management i did notice that my 'Mobile Device's' section had gone
I also tried formatting my sd card using a card reader, but it wont format it
I want to flash a new ROM, any way of doing it without an activesync connection? i managed to get the NBH image on my sd card by using another storage card but i still couldnt establish an activesync connection.
Any help would be much appreaciated as this is driving me crazy
Thanks, Dan.

Have you tried a simple thing like rebooting the pc? That sounds however more like a hardware issue on the pc or phone. What happens if you plug another usb device into the port eg a usb flash drive, does that pick up? In your device manager, are all usb devices functioning properly? Perhaps try to roll back the drivers on the ports if possible and re-install the usb driver update.

If you've changed usb cables, and you've checked the usb to connection setting is not on advanced, then it means the usb port & possibly main board are damaged. Did you hardspl your device?

I've been trying to get anything to recognize my Hero on my PC for the past few days.
What I've tried:
Installing HTC Sync
Installing Android SDK
Installing the HTC HERO DIAG drivers
Doing ##DIAG# and not doing it.
...And all different combinations of those. The problem is I can't get QPST, CDMA Workshop, UniCDMA, or QXDM, etc to recognize it. The Hero synced to the HTC Sync a couple times, but nothing else. It won't even assign a COM port on the computer.
The phone is also rooted, which, I wouldn't think would make much difference, but I'm running out of ideas here.
Any help is really appreciated.
Did you install the regular HTC drivers ? Go to your device manager and see if it says android phone when its plugged in if its there tell it to update driver and point it to the folder called HTC drivers located in the HTC sync program directory.
I tried to do that but the driver wizard said that it could not find any drivers that were better than the ones already installed. (or something to that effect)
EDIT: Ah! I don't know what happened but it appeared on COM5 as "HTC Diagnostic Interface". That may be what I needed. We'll see.
I get the same thing, says "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date."
"HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface" <--???
Exactly the same for me.
Device not recognized, Remove and reinstall HTC Sync and manually selecting drivers, Device wiping and trying again, using a different USB port, using a different cable, reinstalling windows!!!!!, using a different computer, Pulling out my hair!!!!!
Nothing works!!!
However, It did used to ask for mounting and unmounting the SD when plugged in but it has NEVER found HTC sync on my PC.
Now, all I get is Charging battery on the Hero and device not recognized on the PC.
Device manager politely tells me "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"
My system is Windows 7 X64 and my Hero Has run both the shipped ROM and now a cooked 2.1.
Please help me!
I have never been able to sync my Hero on any of my Win7 machines. I have been able to sync sporadically with my work XP Pro SP3 machine though. However, since flashing the AOSP 1.6 rom, HTC sync isn't recognizing my phone anymore. I can however mount the SD card.
Problems connecting Evo to PC
Same problem, but on EVO... Anyone ever figure it out??
I should elaborate I suppose lol... Everything *worked* fine, and then suddenly, appearantly for no reason, it just stopped... Device manager now calls the HTC diag driver an unknown usb device and gives the same warning message as above. And when I try to update the driver, gives the same message about it being up to date...
I have not been able to get ADB to work on my phone since the first time I flashed 2.2, when plugged in it will do the "do you want to turn on usb storage" message and it works fine.
You all might want to try installing the android adb drivers. Its a well know issue with the htc drivers. If you click on my avatar and go to my post you can find my thread on how to install adb on windows 7 32/64 and xp. Adb works fine for me and sync as well. The adb drivers might help out. Well good luck.

more than likely it is your usb cable has been damaged.
i had the same problem, i went to my provider and got a new usb cable for it. (they gave it to me for free, no questions) no more problems at all, works like a charm.
i still have the old cable too, it will not recognize the hero on the computer. in fact if i plug the cable in without the phone, the cable itself actually comes up and says unrecognized device. but it works great for charging.
Team,
For those of you having trouble finding drivers here are some links.
64bit:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x64.shtml
32bit:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x86.shtml
For Linux and Mac the Android SDK drivers should work fine.
I don't know if it is a conflict with my AV or something else, but when I use the x86 drivers linked, my phone will shut off completely when attaching with "PC Internet" option in the USB settings.

Also on a mac you do not need the sdk. You do need to be in debugging mode though.
Also, you could just go to the Captivate webpage on Samsung's site and get the Captivate drivers, not the generic Galaxy S drivers linked in the OP.
thanks was looking for these!
In Windows 7 I'm not having an easy time getting the phone to be recognized. If I click Start > Devices and Printers it shows up as Samsung_Android but even Kies won't recognize the phone so something is wrong. I also can no longer mount my external SD card and have it show up in Windows. I tried to uninstall all the drivers and reinstall but it keeps telling me there are already drivers installed...soo..... *shrugs*

I had this problem on my desktop as well. I was using a front USB port on my computer and when I plugged it into one of the back ports, it worked. I also found the USB cable that came with the phone to work better than a cable I had lying around. Try different ports and if all else fails, try a different cable.
So here's something bizarre. I've been using my PC (Win 7 64bit) for weeks now with my Captivate and no issues. Had originally had woes when I got it, but it started working. Anyway, today I plug it in and ... it doesn't recognize it. Have installed / changed NOTHING -- only M$ patches have been applied. Tried to roll back prior and get the lovely BSOD probably because I have 4 SATA Raptors RAID-0'd and M$ doesn't know how to use that, but has anyone else seen this behavior before?
And to add to this. I rebooted my phone and now it works again. Very odd but problem solved.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
ive been trying for weeks and trying all three, generic Galaxy S, AT&T captivate drivers and Kies and can't get anything working in USB Mass storage mode or Kies mode...
This is on Windows 7 64bit. Driving me crazy. USB mode wont install the Mass storage drivers and Kies wont recognize
My issue is that when I connect the phone on Windows 7 32bit the phone and the internal SD card will connect but one I try to click on anything inside the phone or card the phone will immediately disconnect and then reconnect. When I try to click again it will repeat the disconnection. After that, I don't even have to click on the phone or card directories, it will disconnect then reconnect about 6 more times. Eventually it will be stable and not disconnect. This is extremely annoying. Anyone else with this issue.

Hello, I am having a rather strange problem. My PC did the dreaded auto upgrade to windows 10 the other day and I also got a new Nexus 6P. It seems my computer won't recognize my phone, at all, when I plug it in via USB. It's not even showing up in the device manager as a problem, it's like nothing happens at all.
I have
- downloaded and installed the latest google usb driver (right click install)
- downloaded the latest mtp drivers
- downloaded official nexus package from Huawei
- installed ADB and android SDK and also reinstalled the drivers from the SDK manager.
- downloaded some update for windows media player as someone mentioned that could be the problem
- tried different cables
- tried different ports (usb 3 too)
I am really at a loss. My work computer works just fine with it so I know the phone and the cable are okay and other things work on those ports on my home computer. By the way the computer is Windows 10 pro - 64bit

Have you installed Google USB Driver for nexus 6p? If not, download Google USB Driver, extract it and save it in your any name folder that you can locate it later, plug n6p in your pc or laptop and it should pop up with USB option to select either file transfer or picture transfer, click one of them, Windows should be able to find n6p driver, if not, go to setting on your pc, device manager, then look at highlighted USB of your nexus 6p whether it is properly installed, if not, then install it by finding the driver that you extracted in that specific folder... Hoping this works for you.

Thanks for the response, but yea I already got the new usb drivers and installed them via right click install. The thing is though that in device manager the phone doesnt show up, at all, not even as a problem device. Its like its not there. The phone shows that its charging, but it doesn't recognize that its plugged into a usb port. Im really unsure what to do about this.

Did you install x64 driver from Google USB Driver? Check to see to make sure your USB android debugging is checked. It is kind of odd, try to reboot your pc and nexus 6p, then plug your phone in different USB port if your pc has extra USB port..

Ah I see what you are referring to. Well, here is the thing, how do I install those drivers? Remember I cant find it device manager to update the drivers. The only way I could find to install them was to right click the android_winusb.inf file and choose install. It said it installed okay, but of course its not working. Any idea?
By the way, I also have usb debugging on and usb configuration WAS set to MTP, but I just changed it to try the different variations, but now its stuck on charging and wont change to MTP, but I think its because the phone isnt being recognized by the computer because this morning at the office I was able to change the usb type to mtp and the others, but that computer recognized the phone... AGHHHH WTF

By the way, if your Android debugging on or check? Just turn "developer options" on your phone and then check Android Debugging. To install x64 USB Driver, on your pc, control panel, device Manager, look for phone USB Driver to see it has some kind of yellow triangle, if so update x64 driver from your extracted folder...

WAIT! I got it... Wow I would of never thought this, but apprently my Wacom was the problem. As soon as I unplogged my wacom tablet the phone picked right up... Strange... Anyways, case closed... freaking conflicts!
Okay hold on, still having problems. Well, now the computer dings when I plug it in, but it still doesnt show up. However when I change the phone usb to PTP the phone becomes visible on the pc in windows explorer (but still not in device manager) and when I put it to MTP it disconnects and I cant see it in windows explorer anymore, and still cant find it in device manager... Ugh...
Okay sorry for all the messages, but i did get the MTP working. I had to uninstall the reinstall the drivers a couple times... very strange, but whatever its working... yay!

Did you figure out the problem? I'm having the exact same problem with mine and with USB mode not switching from Charging and the PC not even recognizing a USB device was plugged in.
I found using a different cable solved my problem. Don't really know why cause the first one I used seemed fine and worked to charge it, but by using a different one, Win 10 recognized it and got me in the game.
