I have looked everywhere and tried everything - Windows 7 WILL NOT connect to my HD2

I have tried changing the fast sync option
I have removed everything from the computer and re-installed.
I have hard reset my HD2.
I have restored my computer to before i bought the HD2 and let windows figure out that it needs to install WMDC - then let it download itself and install it.
I have tried every USB port on my computer and also bought a powered USB hub and tried that.
After all installs it just simply wont let me make a partnership or anything.
I don't know what to do anymore. I WANT ME SOME NEW ROMS!!!! please help me out. Other than things to get Windows 7 to work - is there a way to flash hardSPL2 / roms without USB?
I appreciate any help given and i have searched the forums here and all over the net. If i missed that one special trick that my computer needs i do apologize.

I had the same problem with Win 7, however when I unchecked the faster connection option on HD2 it connected, although in Win7 it had a red x in mobile connection, but on the HD2 a connection had been established.

is formatting your PC an option?

Firewall?
I have three Windows 7 machines (32 & 64) and all connect without any problem. Disconnect from your internet connection. Turn off your anti-virus and firewall and give it a shot. Do you get the window that asks how you want to connect when you plug in your cable? Do you have a functioning cable? Just because it charges does not mean it will connect for data. Will it connect to an XP machine?

Have you tried a different usb cable? That's the only other thing I can think of that might be the problem.

HD2 on Windows 7 Ultimate
Hi
Had the same problem, and it turned out that the USB-cable i used, was the problem.
I used the cable that followed the 12v Car Charger, and that did no good, so I went and got the cable that came in the package (chargercable) and then it was Christmas and halloween alltogether.
Works like a charm!

@djchubbs yes i have turned that off as well - along with windows firewall
@ozkaya - no formatting my pc is not an option
@johnboatcat - When i plug it in the phone instantly asks me what kind of connection i want (file transfer or active sync with the checkbox option for faster sync as well). It transfers files just fine in file transfer mode as well.
@zarathustrax i have not tried a different USB cable as i dont have access to one. I doubt something is wrong with mine however i will have to see if i can get one somewhere.
@kongsvada Only cable i have is the one that came in the box factory from HTC
Again thank you for all the replies! I really really am trying to get this to work. I have my home computer which i do everything on but i tried my friends laptop today - it has the same exact build of windows 7 on it as my home computer (if that matters) and it will not sync or let me make a partnership or anything. I plugged it in, it downloaded WMDC and installed etc, restarted the computer and plugged it in, went to active sync mode and WMDC or the sync center do not recognize it at all. Since i cant find it in sync center i cant create a partnership.

OK, let me help you on this if flashing a new ROM will be your immediate task.
1) Just download the ROM that you like and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh
2) Make sure you've HSPL your LEO first.
3) Copy the renamed file into the root of your memory card.
4) Press the VOL down button simultaneously while turning ON your LEO.
5) Just follow the onscreen instructions on your LEO.
6) That's it.
the only problem that I can sense for you now is to HSPL your device because it does require connection with your PC. To bypass this connection with PC thing, do this;
a) Turn OFF your LEO.
b) Turn ON while pressing the VOL Down button together and it will enter the bootloader mode (TRICOLOR Screen).
c) At the bottom of your LEO, it will says "serial"
d) Now, connect the cable to your LEO and and your PC, the words will change to "Usb"
e) Let your PC do its work by installing the necessary driver automatically.
f) When it is done, run the HSPL program your PC. You can download it from this wonderful forum (Please search for it in the ROM development section)
g) Let the program finish and you can see something on your LEO screen in the process. Just look at it and let it finish. DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR LEO (I don't want you to brick your device).
h) When everything is done, reset your LEO and this time press the VOL Down button. This is to go back to the bootloader mode and to check whether the HSPL has been install correctly.
i) then go back to the steps (1 to 6) above to flash your new ROM.
Enjoy,
please post your result and help others too.

I had the same problem with my new computer which happend to be running windows 7 (everything was fine on my old xp machine). After much searching and trouble shooting the problem eventually came down to a setting on the motherboard (something to do with the p55 chipset). After I'd turned the c-state option on in the bios I've had no further issues.
It's a long shot but perhaps it will help you too

ok this sounds promising - i will try it this weekend when i have the time - i greatly appreciate the help and i will post results to let everyone know!
thank you all and like i said - will be trying your way soon mmorisa!

I had to change a registry setting on Windows 7 to get it to connect to my HD2... Of course I cant remember the setting, it may be this one

This worked great! I knew about bootloader screen, i knew i could flash from the SD card but i didn't know how to put them together. Thank you very very much for the help, now off to flashing roms!
One simple - probably stupid question:
I have seen TMOUS compatible on a few roms, however i will then read for that same rom that it is 576 ONLY - And then in another rom thread i see the creator of the rom say TMOUS compatible and then "TMOUS=1024". So what one is it!? just trying to be safe
Again - thank you all so much for the help - i really appreciate everyone that tried to help!
Edit: Just flashed the Evo rom to the phone, plugged it in and BAMN im able to sync with WMDC immediately - so thank you all so so much - super happy now with my 1024 leo!

slowestcivic,
I feel happy that you managed to do it and flash your favorite ROM with the guides I wrote.
at least i can see another smile from another happy LEO user.
best regards and don't forget to help others too.

yeah i have 2007 outlook so that wasnt thr problem. Still not sure what was wrong with it but after flashing a new rom all is well

[Q] Problem! Please Help

Hi
I have had a search through the forums and didn't seem to find what I was looking for.
Here is my problem:
I have trouble getting my phone connected with activesync when I connect it via the USB cable, when I plug the cable in it starts to charge the phone but nothing else happens.
It used to work.
I have tried on a Vistas as well with the same issue.
I have tried BT and gets connected to activesync.
I have tried the solution to remove the tick under settings, connections and USB2PC.
I have tried 2 or more cables.
I have tried hard resetting the phone.
I have tried removing the USB devices on my PC.
Any other suggestions?
Help much apreciated.

Have you tried re-installing ActiveSync on your computer ? Are you using XP or Vista?
I "just" had the same problem on my XP. Even when attempting to reinstall it,
it would not connect. I couldn't remove the program either from the uninstaller.
Found this info: On your computer Click _ start - run - then type the following: fixapi - then hit enter.
Don't have a clue what it did but was able to install again and up and running.
I have a Vista also but have not needed it on that one so I don't know if it works on Vista. Hope this helps you, cause I know it was pissing me off when I couldn't get mine to work.
Good luck.
By the way, what phone are you using and also did you try to download the Activesync 4.5 from the net & install ?

Ok, windows 7 is probably your problem. After XP, which activesync worked on, Vista was changed to Windows Mobile Device Center, which works very similar to activesync. I assume you've never had it working. Support ended with XP.
Windows 7 also uses Windows Mobile Device Center which should already be on your computer. If not check out this link out:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/apps/65-downloads.aspx
If already installed on computer it should open by itself. if it doesn't, attempt to open it yourself. 1st sync you have to set it up, what to sync, media, pics,etc.
Should be pretty easy for you to fix this. Pay attention whether your using a Windows 7 - 32bit or 64bit system.
By the way, don't downgrade to XP. Defeats the purpose of having windows 7. There is an option to run XP on a windows 7 systems so you can run older programs on it but since I don't own a windows 7, yet, I'm not that knowledgeable about it. Just google - running xp on windows 7 and you should find a lot of information.

Ok, your starting to lose me here. You can sync Win 7 with Bluetooth. Can you connect it with the USB conn ? What exactly are you trying to do ?
Activesync should work on your laptop, if it's installed. You trying to connect it with bluetooth or USB.
Is activesync "on" your phone ? Is the phone a stock T-Mobile or flashed ?
Again, activesync is "only" for XP.
What are you syncing on the computer ?

Ok, win 7 I can't help you with. Check your computer for Usb drivers !!! Maybe do a hard reset of the phone and start from scratch, after backing up what you want. If you can sync with bluetooth but not usb, it would almost have to be the something with the drivers or the phone.
As far as the laptop that's running XP, do as I suggested in above post - Start - Run - (type): fixmapi - enter. Then re-install activesync. Check usb drivers on the laptop. Re-download if necessary.
The fact that you cannot connect to either computer with usb suggests to me that it's probably the phone. Do a hard reset and retry.
Hope this helps, let me know ? Would definitely piss me off too.
By the way, if your using the same cable with both computers, switch it out for a different cable and then try to connect before hard resetting, might be the cable.

You hard reset ? If so the only other suggestion would be to flash another rom. Question is, can you flash a rom over bluetooth ? Probably not.

my sd is working

my os is windows vista
i don't use adb so i don't know of it works

did you installed the tattoo's drivers? have you tried the usb connection software (must be set to usb storage)?

yes i did al of those things but it doesn't work i even did reinstal the drivers and htc sync

Check following path to set if you have already selected some thing by default
uncheck it.
Menu > Settings > Connect to PC > Select Ask me option
Then go to launcher and selected USB to PC
If it says Disk drive then select HTC Sync and Select Ask me option and click Done
when it prompts to choose quickly select disk drive and click OK (you have to be fast here other wise phone would go to htcsync)
If it goes to htc sync cancel and try to change again to sdcard/usbstorage and see if it prompts. or change again to htcsync and try again
I had bad experience with earlier donut builds where it is not easy to connect to PC
If you have already done this and not working then you could access sdcard via recovery

the last tip doesn't work for me neither???
does anyone knows a other solution so i can update my tattoo with htc sync?

Can you explain a bit more on what you did and what happened.
That would help people to understand what is happening.
By the way i have update my previous post with exact menu ( i had to go back to 1.6 rom for a while).
Can you also change you usb cable and see if it helps (if you can borrow from some one)
All the best

when i connect my phone i don't get the message from where to select diskdrive or htc sync i only get that message when i reboot my phone while it is conneced throug usb

ur phone attached on pc if not tell me what happened

As rallapag (almost?!) said, i used to connect it to PC, then enter the app drawer and find that app with a logo showing a light blue screen, maybe called USB to PC. Enter it and select HTC sync.

[Q] HTC HD2 USB doesn't detect with MAGLDR

Hello,
I recently purchased HTC HD2 from someone. It came to me with Android 2.2 froyo installed in it through NAND. Now when I am trying to put ICS replacing froyo or when I am trying to put WINMO 7.5 Mango along with android it doesn't detect USB device connection.
All other features are working perfectly like, phone charging through USB, USB detection for SD card etc.
USB doesn't detect only when I try to run through MAGLDR. For example: when I am switching ON my phone by pressing Voume down key along with power key, colourful screen appears with "SERIAL" written on it. Now when I connect phone to my PC through USB it doesn't change to "USB" from "SERIAL".
Also when I am switching ON my phone by continuously pressing power key to get into MAGLDR mode and trying to flash using the 5th option "USB Flasher Mode", here also I can see just "Wait USB…" rather as per the tutorials it should display "Wait USB…USB".
Now because of this issue I am unable to use my HD2 using WINMO or with any other android OS.
Please help with any option so as I can use the USB feature or to install different OS. My motiv behind purchasing this set was only the customization I can do with the phone. Now without which my motive is getting failed.. Please help me guys :crying: ..
Thanks,
Harjeet

What's your PC setup?
A few things,,
In wmdc untick allow USB connections,, the wmdc that comes with vista/win7 isn't the latest version, Google the Microsoft wmdc page and manually download+install, try not to use a 64 bit windows machine if you have the option, (winxp for preference), running an os through any virtual machine type setup can be problematic, try different USB ports, for magldr it needs the android drivers,,,they can be found in various ways, they're linked in the nand toolkit thread, or I think installing "myphoneexplorer " on the PC installs them too, or Google the android sdk (that's a long and complicated way to get them)

Thanks for replying..
First thing.. Do I need to install WMDC when I am not having windows OS itself in my phone? This is just a question because as per my knowledge I don't need to install WMDC unless I am using windows in my Mobile.
At present mobile is purely an android phone with android OS installed in NAND.
And yes I am having Windows XP 32 bit with me. I already tried with different data cables and in different USB slots but USB connection for installing new OS doesn't work. Other then this all other features of USB are working perfectly.
Please revert in case my opinion is wrong.
Thanks,
Harjeet

no its not, its a windows mobile phone with a hacked winmo bootloader allowing it to run a custom bootloader (magldr or clk) which enables android to run.
Anything you do in the winmo bootloader (stripey screen - hspl, task29/flashing magldr/flashing stock roms, flashing radios - ) all requires windows mobile usb drivers.
Anything you do from the magldr screen requires android usb drivers.

Hey Sam,
I can't believe it.. I was wrong.. Just installed Active Sync and tried again.. It worked..
You were right.. Thanks a ton champ..

Somebody recognized Samsamuel, not for no reason I assume, but who?:cyclops:

the all-seeing-eye recognises us ALL!

Hello all.
When you've got some problems with you datacable via phone/pc is also this a solution.
Be sure you've make a copy of your SD-card and after when you copied SD to PC (harddisc) via datacable or cardreader and after this you gonna formatting your SD-card or you buy a new SD-card.
Then put new or formatted SD-card into your phone and started it up in bootloadermenu (colorscreened) <volume down> and after this you wil see now in place only "serial" changed into "USB".

i have the same problem

I had the same problem on my Windows 7 x64. Then I tried to connect HD2 to my older Win XP notebook and there it worked. So I found somewhere, I should update drivers in my Windows 7 system. I downloaded file "drvupdate-amd64.exe" from Microsoft (search in Google for "Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver for Windows Vista (64-bit)"), installed it and then it started to work (it took a while, before it started to work, but it started). When I connected my HD2, Windows found the driver, installed it and "SERIAL" changed to "USB" finally.

Hello,
I recently purchased HTC HD2 from someone. It came to me with Android 2.2 froyo installed in it through NAND. Now when I am trying to put ICS replacing froyo or when I am trying to put WINMO 7.5 Mango along with android it doesn't detect USB device connection.
All other features are working perfectly like, phone charging through USB, USB detection for SD card etc.
USB doesn't detect only when I try to run through MAGLDR. For example: when I am switching ON my phone by pressing Voume down key along with power key, colourful screen appears with "SERIAL" written on it. Now when I connect phone to my PC through USB it doesn't change to "USB" from "SERIAL".
Also when I am switching ON my phone by continuously pressing power key to get into MAGLDR mode and trying to flash using the 5th option "USB Flasher Mode", here also I can see just "Wait USB…" rather as per the tutorials it should display "Wait USB…USB".
Now because of this issue I am unable to use my HD2 using WINMO or with any other android OS.
Please help with any option so as I can use the USB feature or to install different OS. My motiv behind purchasing this set was only the customization I can do with the phone. Now without which my motive is getting failed.. Please help me guys :crying: ..
Thanks,
Harjeet

I confess I haven't read all answers so it might be a repetition but what I think is you might have made changes in your operating system, specially in SYSTEM REGISTRY that deals with communicating your devices chipset in particular mode, I think it is a QUALCOMM device, now you should do following things:-
First if you have registry backup, apply that and revert back to previous system registry or in case you have not, restore your OS to any previous restore point.
Then restart system, connect USB cable and start it in the particular mode you asked in question (vol down+power), it should try detecting driver.
If it can't, better solution to try finding QUALCOMM MSM driver for HD2 separately is to download windows active sync/htc sync, which might be having these drivers built in, download it and if it doesn't help, restart your system, then try again, it should work, in case doesn't PM me, as I won't be following this post, most probably even you ain't

[Q] help!!!!!! flashed a windows phone 7 rom and now I can't get back to stock

I flashed this phone to WP7 and it works fine but can't access market even after activation code. I have tried to flashe back using the sd card method but device not recognising sd cards also phone does not allow me to use windows activesync anymore so cannot do it that way either im basically stuck with a phone that does not work 100% any help will be greatly appreciated

you must change sdcard and find one which work (you must reflash or hard reset when insert new card).... HD2 dont have enough memory for WP7 and must use SDcard for this... but major problem is find good and compatible sdcard
for activation you must ask Microsoft support for live activation code for HTC HD7....
for this and others read install tutorial from my signature

I have done all that but still nothing. Every tutorial I see they are saying when usb plugged in then activesync should work but im getting nothing and I can't think of what else to do. So far my phone is done now I get no mobile data either just wifi I can't access facebook unless using browser. I was looking forward to using this phone but now its pretty useless

Which Windows you have on PC??? if you have XP then you must have ActiveSync... for Windows 7 and 8 you must have WMDC (windows mobile device center)

i never have any problems with sync on my (old) HD2... maybe some problem on your device or drivers

Check in Device Manager if anything shows up or needs drivers.
Does the device show "Serial" in bootloader when connected?

Turn on the phone into magldr and then use the usb mass storage option. It should allow full access to your microSD card and let you backup any files from there. Then format the card (FAT32, 4096 allocation size) and you should be able to reflash stock now.
