Sprint HTC Hero and HTC sync problem in win 7 - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hey guys,
I am sure this is a topic that has come up in the past, so bear with me.
i recently got a sprint HTC hero(converted by a friend from an iphone)
i hooked it up to my pc and i can't get HTC sync or windows to recognize my phone due to the drivers bug. Windows will only recognize it as a storage device.
I am currently running Windows 7 64 home edition.
i tried the solution posted on the unlocker but have had no luck.
(new user won't let me post link lol)
any help would be great
Thanks!

After posting the above post, i decided to rework everything...
it took me a few hours but i discovered a work around for the work around that wasn't working for me lol
thanks to everyone who read the post
sorry for the waste of space :-/

and you're going to share it with us, right?

Indeed,... Let others know how to solve the issue.

Hey guys sorry it took so long for the reply, I was dealing with a family crisis and hadn't had much time to do anything.
you will have to find your sources for Sync and the drivers because i can't post links in the forum.
This is how I solved my problem:
1.Download latest specialized sync tool from HTC, namely HTC Sync 2.04 from HTC
2. Install the downloaded program on the computer. At this moment, your computer still won't recognize the HTC Hero.
3. Manually update the HTC drivers from Windows 7, using the Windows Vista drivers
by installing HTC Sync software on a machine running Windows Vista and then copying the drivers (namely androidusb.cat, androidusb.inf, androidusb.sys, htcrndis.cat, htcrndis.inf and WdfCoInstaller01007.dll in HTC Drivers folder) over to the Windows 7 machine. or you can manually download the drivers from someplace like theunlockr.
4.Extract the driver into a folder. For example, %SystemDrive%:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Vista_x64 (for the Windows 7 64-bit) or %SystemDrive%:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Vista_x86 (for the Windows 7 32-bit) accordingly.
5.open devices and printers
6. right click your android phone and choose 'properties'
7. go to the "hardware" tab and again select "Properties"
8.on the general tab click"Change Settings"
9. Go to "driver" tab
10. Click "update Driver"
11. The window that pops up will ask how you want to find the driver. Be sure to select the option that allows you to browse your computer for the driver.
12. Navigate to where you saved and unzipped the driver.
13. reconnect phone
now if everything went well HTC sync should recognize your phone.
now if this doesn't work msg me and i will try and help you to the best of my abilities

I know this is a rather old post...but I have recently just switched back to the Hero after taking a trip to webOS land...I have followed these instructions to the letter, but my phone still does not show up in Devices and Printers...Do I need to be using exactly the version of HTC Sync mentioned here, or should newer versions work as well?
Also, in other places I have read, it mentions that the Hero should pop-up a notification asking to allow a connection to the computer or something...I haven't seen this...is there somewhere in an app setting that I may need to change a default value?

HTC Magic on Windows 7

Hello,
I've been googling around for a workaround but I cannot seem to find one that actually works. The problem is, when I try to connect my phone to the PC and, for example, want to flash it with an official rom - it simply cannot find it. It can find the SD card when I mount it.
When I put it in, Windows attempts to install a few drivers but fails at the ADB. According to several sites, I can just use the one from HTC Sync or from the Android SDK. It installs fine but it still doesn't seem to be able to contact my phone. I cannot sync it either.
Anyone got an idea? I seem to be on my last nerve.
I dont have any problems here. What windows beta release do you use?
Final version. Released today. It's Windows 7 Professional.
First, set the phone to debugg mode...
Ok here we go (at least it works for me)...
1.- Remove the drivers actuaslly installed (it might get tricky, as I don't know exactly how to remove the registry keys)
2.- Once you have cleaned windows from the drivers, connect the phone to the computer and let it recognize everything (Probably it would not recognize the ADB drviers, so far we are good)
3.- After the drivers are installed, go and check in control panel/Devices Administration (or something like that... I have Windows in spanish so I don't know exactly how is called on english... By the way, sorry if my english sound a little bit weird =P..)
4.- Here you should see probably a device as "not recognized" or what ever is called... Here is the part where you need to select the driver manually.
5.- Check the phone driver folder (you should have it, if you don't get them)
6.- When you see the different options, select the one called HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface
7.- You are done =D...
I hope I made it clear enough for you...
If you have any doubt, add me to MSN xnofrostx - hotmail.com (I don't put the @ because I hate spam xD so you should add only the xnofrostx =P...
Hope you can get it to work...
I couldn't, for the life of me, get it to work so I put Windows XP on a vmware and flashed it through there. Works wonders.
Sorry for not being able to help.
I run Windows 7 Evaluation copy. I have had no problems. In fact there was nothing for me to set up, it just saw it on first attempt.

HTC Sync and Windows 7 - How to get it to work?

I have done dozens of searches and come across hundreds of people having the same issue as me and not one solution that actually works...
The software: HTC Sync, version: 2.0.18
The OS: Windows 7
The device: HTC Magic (Stock Rogers version)
The issue: HTC sync installed fine, all drivers installed fine, when I connect my Magic to my PC my phone notification area gives me the option to "HTC Sync" when I select that and it searches for a minute or so it says:
"The phone cannot detect HTC Sync at your PC. Please make sure that HTC Sync is installed and opened on your computer."
Tried rebooting my PC and tried rebooting my Magic (as a few different posts suggested). Tried installing different versions of HTC Sync, but 2.0.18 should be the right one as HTC says that it is for Windows 7:
"This release of HTC Sync for Windows 7 allows for users to sync their Android phones”
It seems Many people are having the same issue as me and yet no one has a solution?!?
Any help, pointers or advice would be Very much appreciated.
I've found that it is easiest to just avoid htc sync on windows 7 altogether. Tried to get it working for like 8 hours yesterday. You may be able to make it work if u use windows 7's xp virtualization mode (Google it) and install the program in an xp environment.
But honestly, i say avoid it until HTC makes it work properly

Well even if I wanted to just give up on syncing it, if I can't get my Magic/PC to recognize each other then I can't ever root/upgrade my phone, so giving up is not an option.
Ok I have managed to finally find a solution that works (for me).
1. Install HTC Sync
2. Download these drivers: http://depositfiles.com/files/yd61xorii and then Unzip them
3. connect your Magic to your PC
4. on your PC select: Start>Control Panel>Device Manager>ADB Interface>Rightclick>Update driver software>Browse My Computer For Driver Software>Browse to the location you unziped the drivers to>Let Me Pick From A List(Don't let it pick or it will pick the wrong ones!)>Click on "My HTC">Click Next.
Done.
you can root and upgrade w/o htc sync.
I did it yesterday. you just have to use the goldcard method to flash the proper spl, then you can put anything on the sd card. Windows recognizes the phone as a flash drive regardless of wether or not it works with sync

You can flash your SPL without connecting your phone to your PC? (I just got my Magic to I have never done anything to it yet)
But anyways I also want the ability to use my carrier upgrades and for that I Need my phone to recognize my PC.
And most importantly I need a seamless way to keep all my different phones in sync with Outlook and HTC Sync is the only way to do that. So I'm glad I got it figures out.
HTC Sync here shows it works with Windows 7 now:
http://87.106.248.77/download/Driver//HTC Tattoo/HTC Sync 2.0.18/HTCSync.exe
yeah you can flash a new spl w/o connecting to computer.
but by all means, if you got it working, more power to you
Ive tried all the above idea to get HTC Sync to work on my PC (with Win 7) nothing works......

Android USB Tethering Problem

An odd one....
I have one of the HD2 Android releases on my phone, and it's working fine EXCEPT....
USB tethering does not work.
Now here's the odd part.
1. I have two machines. Both running Win7/x64.
2. One loads the RNDIS driver and works fine. The other can't find the driver on Windows Update.
I have no clue what's going on, but the USB signature is VID_0bb4&PID_0FFe, which is valid for the HTC Sapphire.
And, like I said, the other machine -also running Win7 - finds it just fine.
Any ideas?
Answering my own question...
If you run into this, put this somewhere on your disk and point "Update Driver" at it.
It'll work.
Now why this was on the disk of ONE machine (which worked) and NOT the other (which did not), and why Windows Update wouldn't find it either (!!!) is unknown.
All I know is that this is the file that Windows 7 wanted, and didn't have on one of the computers - but did have on the other.
i'm running Windows 7 x64 and when i start usb tethering from android on HD2 there is Android Device driver missing in Device Manager, I've read that Windows 7 already have Remote NDIS support so no need for seperate driver download if you have Windows Mobile Device Center but it ain't working, the same problem as you had.
Luckely, your solution and this separate driver works, Windows 7 complains about unsigned driver but who cares, USB tethering is working
Thanks!
didn't work...
i attempted installing the driver OEM106.inf, but received an error once it was loaded on my pc:
"This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)"
i was having similar problems as Genesis trying to tether my Android phone via USB to my pc and receiving a Remote NDIS driver problem (same as above). I successfully tethered my phone to my PC once (and only once), but after I woke the computer from sleep mode, my pc began giving me errors on the "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device" stating that windows cannot load the drivers ("rndismpx.sys" & "usb8023x.sys"). I haven't been able to tether via USB since then.
Windows Update states the driver is up to date, and when I tried Genesis3's driver fix, it only gave me the same error.
Any ideas?
Running win7/x64 on a toshiba i3, and a HTC nexus 1 running android 2.2.2
The files referenced have somehow been damaged or destroyed. Find them from another machine and put them back, and the OEM file I posted will work.
Those two files have to be on your machine - the OEM file is the pointer to them, but the base-level drivers have to exist.
you may need the latest version of htc sync
i did all my flashing on an xp computer and when i got win7 i just could not get any drivers to work. i downloaded the latest version of htc sync and all the drivers loaded just fine. time to flash this thing again ive had the same rom for two weeks
This is what I was looking for, and it worked for me, thanks!
PISSA! Tried for a while to get usb tethering to work and this did it! Took a minute for windows to sort things out after the driver update but its working! THANK YOU!

Worked like a charm, thanks! I just had to update driver with provided file and it started working. Thank you very much again! Bump may not be a bad idea, maybe few more users will solve their problems with this. HD2 isn't a native Android device, so it wasn't that strange that it didn't worked out-of-the-box even with Win7 RDNIS (or sth like that) native support.

1 - Download all HTC drivers for windows 7
2- Format the pc again
3- Install all the drivers in order AND with admin mode AND compatibility settings set up for windows vista
4- Only restart after installing ALL drivers
5- Take a beer and surf the internet.
Good Luck!

Stay calm bro. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your Shift. No need to contact HTC for now.
1. The USB extension kit has nothing to do with your original issue - Wi-Fi
2. Have you enabled Wi-fi. You know how to do this? Hit the Shift Control Centre button and then enable wifi from there.....
3. You need to install drivers
4. If all else fail start all over.
5. To re-install Windows Vista is piece of cake. Hit FN+F3 when the Shift is re-starting and you will be re-installing Vista in seconds.
6. But... Dont panic! Installing Windows 7, back to Vista, then off to 7 again and even back will not damage your device in any way.
7. Forget about the HTC people and their warranty bull****. As soon as you re-install Vista the device will be exactly the way it left the factory.....
8. You are in the right forum where the xda Community will assist you for as long as you are in need....
9. Dont Panic!!!!!

[HOWTO] Installing HTC Drivers for adb/fastboot on Windows 8

Mod Message: OP's link is down. Please search the comments to find other's mirror. But please remember to use AV software to scan before you proceed to install, in case of malware or virus!
Instructions to installing HTC Drivers on Windows8 64Bit:
==========================================
1. Download the Windows7 (64 Bit) drivers here - R[COLOR="Red"]emoved[/COLOR]
2. Unzip to any location you want. Just remember where you put them.
3. Plug in your phone to your USB cable.
4. Open your Device Manager (Windows Key + X and select Device manager) and locate HTC under Other Devices and right click on it and select Update Driver Software
5. Select "Browse my computer for driver software"
6. Click Browse and then select the folder you unzipped with the drivers in it then click next.
7. It should now install your drivers and then in your device manager it will now show up "My HTC" under Android USB Devices.
Hope that helps anyone having troubles getting USB/HTC drivers working on Windows 8 (64bit).
*NOTE* I'm not sure if this will be the same for you guys but I had to plug my phone into USB slot 2. USB slot 3 would not work.
Just a little heads up
All credit for this guide goes to Hippie459MN for the original thread. Be sure to thank him for his work
I'm just posting it in this forum because it works fine and a lot of people aren't aware of this method
Awesome man. Don't even have my One but if I have problem with Windows 8, it's great that you already posted a solution.

It took me quite a while of searching to actually find that guide but I'm glad I did otherwise I couldn't have unlocked my bootloader or rooted
Been trying to get the driver to work on my W8 laptop for my E3D. This worked for it after spending hours trying all sorts. Thanks a million. I will be sure to go through to the other thread and say thanks too.
If only I saw this before I spent hours last night trying to get adb to recognise my phone. I somehow got there in the end but this would've saved me a good two hours!

Tried this technique and it still won't work.
Here's what I'm doing
- Uninstall all current drivers & HTC Sync
- Restart PC

- Restart PC
Phone when on normally connects to adb just fine,
but when I put it into the bootloader it takes around 15 seconds to detect it and then says it's unrecognised and gives the error below:

Any help would be appreciated. For now, I'm running a copy of W7 on an old 2.5" drive... not ideal.

@petedavison93 and the owner of this thread, did you guys find a fix to pete's issue as I'm having the same issue as Pete, please help!
Had the same issue and installed different drivers several times without luck.
It was fixed for me by simply plugging in the phone into an USB port at the motherboard. The front USB and additional USB3 ports at the PC were not working, when the device is booted to the bootloader. They are working with adb only, when the phone is running normal.
I am running Win8x64.
Great Instructions

Instructions to installing HTC Drivers on Windows8 64Bit:
==========================================
1. Download the Windows7 (64 Bit) drivers here - http://d-h.st/23V
2. Unzip to any location you want. Just remember where you put them.
3. Plug in your phone to your USB cable.
4. Open your Device Manager (Windows Key + X and select Device manager) and locate HTC under Other Devices and right click on it and select Update Driver Software
5. Select "Browse my computer for driver software"
6. Click Browse and then select the folder you unzipped with the drivers in it then click next.
7. It should now install your drivers and then in your device manager it will now show up "My HTC" under Android USB Devices.
Hope that helps anyone having troubles getting USB/HTC drivers working on Windows 8 (64bit).
*NOTE* I'm not sure if this will be the same for you guys but I had to plug my phone into USB slot 2. USB slot 3 would not work.
Just a little heads up

I'm just posting it in this forum because it works fine and a lot of people aren't aware of this method

Anyone happen to know where I can find some windows 7 32bit drivers. Windows 8 32bit isn't a fan of 64bit software.
It isn't a problem with the HTC drivers. It's the usb drivers from Ms for Intel 3.0 bus. I found a thread that I'm searching again for that give the instructions on replacing the signed ms driver with an unsigned win 7 64bit host controller driver. It's two files and you need to first allow unsigned drivers in windows security. Needless to say it's fine now on my 3 ports.
