My phone doesn't mount when plugged in to a PC
USB debugging is switched on but does not activate when plugged in.
The phone shows its charging but that is it.
I am able to access the SD card normally on the phone but there is no indication of the phone being connected when I plug it into my PC.
I have tried;
plugging it into different PCs
different cables
the unbricking process, several times (even though it doesn't really apply, my card is visible in Android)
flashing to different roms with a wipe in between
Any ideas?
I can't figure it out.

me too same problem after updating to froyo ... but i'm different than you the it connect after a while .. but now for example when connecting the phone to my car it doesn't read it because it take too long to connect .. any help ?
Have you got a working set for drivers?
This was my main problem, I used to just have to play around with the USB and eventually it would mount after about two or three reboots.
I installed HTC Sync & updated drivers and so far it's been working the way it should be, even if you don't use HTC sync just download it and grab the drivers & then replace files with the the
Code:
HTC Hero driver for 32-bit Windows 7: HTC_Driver_32.zip
HTC Hero driver for 64-bit Windows 7: HTC_Driver_64.zip
That sorted my problem but not sure if it works for everyone.

I think you are right. it happened to me and it was because drivers.... once windows finalized to install the drivers is sure you will get the option to mount as drive...

No its not the drivers. My PC still connects successfully with the phone when in recovery mode. That's how I was able to complete the USB unbrick process.

i got the same problem. however there is a workaround. you could google for a zip file containing the driver files (not an installer) and install them using "Device managers". that will connect the Magic, and you can adb with it. And no, even with that HTC Sync does not work.
Install the drivers and it will be recognize. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate and no probs connecting to MT3G.
I have a 64 bit Win7 and i installed vista x64 driver and it works fine
Just found these drivers for Windows 7. Installing them now so will let you know if they work!!

I had to go to Printers and devices or whatever it's called, then right click on Android phone, choose properties (with admin access) and driver. Then update driver for the phone itself (currently it probably say Dream or something) and always choose to browse to the file manually. Then click to get a list of compatible drivers, and then click "HAVE DISK" (this is the only way I got it to work) and browse to the driver files for Windows 7 in
C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Driver\Driver Files\Win7_x64
and it should work.
I don't seem to have 'Andrioid' in my Devices & Printers. Not really sure why but i'll have a little play around with a few settings and see.
I have confirmed this to fix my "unrecognized" usb device driver issues in the past.
1. Uninstall whatever you can related to previous failed driver installs for the USB device.
2. Shut down the PC
3. UNPLUG THE POWERCORD
4. Unplug your USB device, if not allready unplugged
5. Plug the power cord back in
6. Boot the machine and log back into windows.
7. Let it fully load then reboot again.
This will attempt to give you new IRQ's and DMA's for the usb port.
Now try your driver installation.
i`ve had the same problem
my solution...
settings -> SD card & phone storage -> unmount sd card
remove SD Card and insert the card again...
after that , everything works fine...

This technique has definately fixed the 'unrecognised' problem! Still can't open up my phone as a removable drive in My Computer though, but its a good start! HTC Sync also still can't recognise it. Thanks for help I'm sure this'll help a lot of people with Windows 7.
Install USBDeview (google it) and find any listed driver (with the phone disconnected) related to the words Android, HTC, Dream (you get the picture) and uninstall if you need to remove USB-drivers for the phone. Then you can plug it back in "fresh" and use new drivers.
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.

yes they have... This feels redundant. also add in that if you're a nub just install kies and it will auto dl the correct drivers you need.

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.

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.

hey guys, i have problem when i plug my magic into my laptop..
it always said "usb not recognized"
i use windows 7 32-bit
i have tried to install android-usb driver but windows system can't detect the driver (android_usb.inf, androidusb.sys, androidusb86.cat, WdfCoInstaller01005.dll)
i try to change the usb cable but still doesn't work
what should i do?
Tried installing HTC sync? That usually fixes the driver problems.
Either that, or try installing HTC Sync AND THEN the USB Driver cable. That worked for me, or try the newest HTC Sync available.
WHere can I install HTC Sync from? I'm having the same issue's, I never had this problem before..
so after installing HTC Sync I'm still havng the same issue, this is the message I'm getting..
"One of the USB Divices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it." any suggestions?

I have the same problem. Both my windows 7 pc and linux netbook both used to display the magic as a mass storage device (all I need), but now neither will do it. As both fail to detect the magic I've come to he conclusion there is something missing or corrupted on the magic - probably after me pulling the usb cable too soon!
I've reinstalled the rom, ticked usb debugging etc, yet still no joy. The pc initially gave an error code 43, but now it does nothing. could somebody help please.

I tried two htc syncs, neither worked. Thats why I think its an issue related to the phone rather than the pc. Is it related to unmounting the sd/not unmounting the sd at the appropriate/inappropriate time??
All I get is:
usb not recognised - One of the USB Divices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it..... then when i click on the attached usb info it states ' Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)'
i already haved this issue its hardware issue sendit to warranty

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
- Your method exactly
- 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:
Device doesn't start. (Code 10)
A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.
Any help would be appreciated. For now, I'm running a copy of W7 on an old 2.5" drive... not ideal.
Tried this technique and it still won't work.
@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.

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.
