Help ! My E900 isn't recognized by Windows/Zune anymore - Optimus 7 General

Tried on several PC's so it's obviously a phone issue, went through all 3 Port Settings in the MFG app, no change though, i can only charge the phone and that's that, any other ideas ?
Already tried factory reset too

No one ? I just realized that i can't even copy my music anymore lol..if only i had wireless sync setup before this happened..

Even deploy doesnt work right? Maybe you have messed up something in registry...do you remember recent changes?
Sent from my LG-E900 using Board Express

I don't remember changing anything besides the usb settings, and once i think i tried to unlock it or even succeeded but this shouldn't interfere with the device afaik
I'm looking at a semi-bricked phone now
I didn't try to deploy but since the phone is not recognized anymore i don't know if there is any chance or ?

Just an update..yesterday while i was cleaning up my desk i found the original LG cable that came with the phone...i plug it in and what do you know...the phone is recognized again...there are no words...

What kind off cable was the ``other`` one ?

I think i tried with 3 other different cables, one came from a Blakberry, one from HTC Desire and one i don't remember from

I have had both the Samsung Focus and now the LG, while I haven't had this issue with my LG, I did with the Samsung.
Same thing, tried every micro cable I had, and none of them worked, finally found the orginal cable and it worked. ... I know it's common on the Focus, but the first I've heard on the LG.

It's very frustrating, especially since i'm a "tech" person and couldn't find any solution to this, being forced to use the original cable makes no sense even now but i hope that at least someone else who will face this will find this thread useful.

HELP! Comp does not recognize Wizard

Guys,
I need help here, a few days ago, I changed my USB since all of a sudden, the phone can't be charged. Then, after the USB got changed, I am able to charge the Wizard... but the strange thing happened, my comp does not recognize the Wiz, it does not even show any device at all. I tried to do all the stuffs, like:
- install/uninstall Active sync
- update active sync
- restart comp several times
- even hard reset my Wiz a couple times
All of em are not working. Would any of u guys have this problem before? Any ideas why? Is it time to say good bye? =(
do a system restore to a date you know that worked. something happens with the usb drivers and the way the phone talks to the pc, not sure on the how or why. but whenever i downgrade, when i go to install the new rom, it says unrecognizeable, system restore usually does the trick.
I forgot to mention that I did bring it to the repair shop, and all the computers that they have cannot recognize my phone... when they plugged in their USB to my phone, their activesync can't recognize it even though it's charging...
So, I don't think it's the problem w/ my comp. Anyone has any other ideas?
Thanks tho...

Go to this page and get a new PC USB cable or cradle. It may also be the internal USB port on your device.
http://www.daydeal.com/home.php?cat=1809
EDIT:: It could possibly be a virus on your device. I hate to say that but I just remembered that a friend of mine had the same problem when he got a virus on his device. Also, have you ever dropped the device or gotten it wet?

[q] advice hd2 wont connect to usb

hiya guys i recently bought a second hand hd2 after reading some reviews on how good it was so obviously i just had to start messing with it and coming from a htc wildfire was expecting things to be just as simple as root and install a rom wich after reading up went sweet as a nut took bot 30 mins total ......so heres the problem i was really impressed showed my phone off to every1 including my dad who was also impressed so bought 1 aswell (second hand so cant get a replacement as the phone is technically not broken) now for the last 4 or 5 days ive been trying to duplicate what ive done on my phone on his but cant get the damn thing recognized and before anyone says it lol ive tried everything i can fiind on the net about the issue ive tried diffrent usb ports on my pc wich is running win7 ive tried his pc also running win7 ....my laptop with winxp all usb ports from fresh install and another laptop running vista all with the appropriate programs wmdc and activesync for xp ......i have 7 usb cables diffrent makes but 3 are official htc including the original cable for hd2 (wich i used to flash my phone) and ive tried 2 of his including his original for hd2 ....reinstalled win6.5 using sd card method and still nothing apart from the fact it charges on every cable ive tried wich to me says that the usb port on the phone is fine it doesnt bring up the menu asking how i want to use the connection i.e charge activesync or mass storage (and ive got the option ticked to ask me....and ive tried deselcting fast connect) it just doesnt recognise the connection and windows doesnt respond at all to the phone being connected even in bootloader mode it stays on serial and doesnt change to usb..... everything radio, rom is the same now as when i did mine same cable but no connection ......i think that covers everything ive tried does any1 know off anything ive missed or know if theres a fix for this issue lmao sorry bout the essay just wanted to get accross that i think ive tried EVERYTHING thanks for taking the time to read
My guess,,, bent /broken/ missing pin in the phones USB socket, or connection fault in the associated wiring to the USB port, so data connection isn't being triggered but charging works because those two pins are fine.
Can try cleaning the USB port, a soft DRY toothbrush perhaps, give the port a close examination.
thanks for quick reply i did examine the port everything looked fine couldnt see anything bent in there a clean might help but looks ok to me thats the odd thing the phone looks new no damage to the port or phone and ive read about other people having the same issue but ive tried everything that has helped others with no success just wondering wether the phones a scrapper win6.5 definatly not a keeper lol
Lol ill take it off your hands before you "scrap" it. ...

If the USB is the only issue you would probably still get a reasonable price for it on ebay.
Sent From My Fingers To Your Face.....
i think that the phone in general probably gets bought for the multiple o.s .....i know thats why i got mine yea the phone has some impressive upsides but i should have read the downsides this phone seems to be a accident waiting to happen dodgy usb, dead touchscreens, dodgy or sticky power buttons and getting bricked through normal usuage .... the list seems endless from what ive read in last few days ....my hd2 seems to have gone fine but just wondering how long its gonna last im scared to use it now lmao
I wouldn't worry about that. People are always gonna post their horror stories but not many come here to say ,
"Everything's fine, touchscreen hasn't died yet..."
If it reassures you at all, I've had mine since launch, its been dropped, flashed numerous times, got soaked in the rain, smashed into a fridge and the only thing wrong with her is a small dent on the bezel by the screen. I'd say it's a pretty resiliant device for what is essentially a 4" piece of glass....

lol yea that sounds like some hardcore usage ......and yea i suppose as im looking for an actual problem or rather an answer to a problem with the phone only natural im gunna find other peoples problems
I beleive like Sam said your data transfer pins are not working. Especialy sense you said it does not ask if you want ActiveSync or Disk drive.
And without working data tranfer pins you will not be able to flash Android. You can flas MAGLDR and cLK via SD card, but you can not flash CWM or use fastboot commands without a USB connection. Sorry friend, best thing to do is flash a good custom Windows Mobile ROM to your dad's HD2 or get the USB fixed.
Hey guys thanks for the advice looks like he's getting custom windows rom lol anything for speed and useability improvements any suggeations for a good custom rom to try as I'm new tink the hd2 and a fan of android not too sure on the windows side of things

HD2 Problems with USB, not being recognized, can't enter bootloader

Hello everybody! It's samanen here, a newbie on xda. NOOOB
For first I'd like to apologize my not-so-good english, I'm 15 and from Finland so please keep the point in the problems and forget my english difficulties
Ok, splutting off and let's move to the point here
So I bought my HD2 (used) about two weeks ago, and right away tried to put WP7/android on it and sync music, contacts, videos and other stuff - but my USB connection didn't, and still doesn't work.
Ofcourse I tried reconnecting, cleaning the usb cable and port on the phone, tried another PCs and total of 10 different USB ports, another cable, Mac OS, Win7, WinXP, SyncMate, WMDC, ActiveSync, removing the battery, resetting the phone, removing SD-Card and SIM-Card, ActiveSync, Hard Disk and Faster data sync options, etc etc with no positive result. Its no fun having a mobile device with no access to put media and other stuff on it :/
Specs and facts:
HTC HD2 (aka Leo), non-T-Mobile (EU version?)
Software info:
Os Version : 5.2.21913 (21913.5.0.94)
Manila version : 2.5.20181527.0
ROM version : 3.14.405.2 (04666) WWE
ROM date : 09/29/10
Radio version : 2.15.50.14
Protocol version : 15.42.50.11U
Hardware info:
CPU : QUALCOMM(R) 8250B
Speed : 1024 Mhz
RAM size : 448MB
Flash memory size : 512MB
Enough numbers?
I think I have tried all the stuff I found here... Still no result, can't be detected on my PC. When I connect my phone to my PC, a notification pops up saying that USB device couldn't be detected/recognized, and it may be damaged. 1 second after it popped up it disappears and if I check the devices connected to the pc, there's no undetected devices anymore.. If I'm quick enough to click on the notification, it shows me what devices are connected and their situations, and I can see an undetected USB device there, but if I refresh (reopen) the window it disappears..
Also, if I use the option "When phone is on, do not charge the battery when connected to a PC." and connect to a PC via USB, it STILL does charge the battery. So my hypothesis is that the phone believes it's on a charger/car kit because its not getting recognized as a USB hard disk/device on my PC and still charges as it's connected to PC. Could this be possible in any way?
Also, when I got the phone and put it on the charger, CoPilot popped up every second (I closed it, it opened, etc) and I had to uncheck some option "When connected to a car kit open CoPilot automatically", so another thing there which refers to my phone being a psycho and believing its being on a charger.
I know there are people with this problem, and topics on this forum, but I think my problem is a bit different from theirs and nobody has really got an answer for this..
Then to my second problem. I can't enter Bootloader mode, or Hard Reset mode.
When I hold down the volDown button and press the bootup button, my phone either normally boots up or doesn't even boot up or show signs of booting into bootloader.
Once I got into the bootloader after dozens of tries, but as I'm stupid, I didn't write down the numbers shown there.. And now I seem not to be able to enter bootloader even after 20 tries.. Hardreset neither works. Same plan - either normally boots up or doesn't do anything. Weirdo much? Can anyone help? :/ I think I've bought an useless device..
Thanks,
samanen
Hi man! Try to flash your phone from SD card with stock ROM. Hope you will get good result! Let me know what happens!
Maybe it is your usb cable. I also can not sync with the cable that was delivered with the official carkit. It is just possible to load the device with that cable.
Your bootloader problem could be caused by broken volume buttons. I think they often get destroyed when replacing a broken touch screen. Do they work without problems inside the os?

Hai there! Thanks for your suggestion! What rom version would you recommend? I'm such a noob with these roms etc so I'd appreciate much if you/somebody could tell me what to use I will try that as soon as I find my microSD->SD adapter (Im afraid it got into vacuum cleaner as I cleaned my room ), also I have no idea how that's done but I believe there's a tutorial on xda.

I have tried 2 different cables, one from the package the previous owner provided me and another one from my dad's N97 mini. Could I be so unlucky that those cables are ones that don't work with HD2? I hope I am If you think its about the cable, what cable would you suggest me to get? Just a basic microusb cable from the electonic store? Also the previous owner told me he wiped out all the data and synced the phone before sending it to me WITH the cable provided, so.. Idk Strange.
No, my volume buttons are working great inside the os, I can adjust vol down and up well without any problems. Also my volbuttons are not sticky or feel like broken so I just don't believe that theyre damaged. Also the screen has never got damaged or repaired.
Another problem - Isn't it required to enter bootloader mode when updating the rom? :/
Thanks for both of you for your replies and suggestions, I will keep you updated if anything helps or gets clarified!
-samanen
Sorry then i can not help you. I do not think it is the cable. I bought one on amazon. It is official htc charging and syncing cable. This just came to my mind because you said that your copilot starts if you plug your phone in....
If you want to install another winmo rom you can do it when connected via active sync and it will automatically go to bootloader. If you want to install hspl for custom roms or android you have to go to bootloader for the installation.

Man, do you think they could fix this in warranty/quaranty? I have still warranty left on this one and i think I could get a new one/HD7 in return
Yeah. They must fix it if you dont damaged phone mechanically(maybe previous owner replaced screen) or you dont flash hspl magld android Leo is still The King i think. Here more opportunities than in HD7 On eBay HD7 cheaper than HD2 because WP7 os not good than android let me know whats up!

No, I've never dropped it or anything and when it came from the previous owner the usb didnt work, and he has never replaced anything on this model (his previous model was replaced to this, completely new one because his previous model stopped working with no reason).
Maybe I should contact the warranty Thanks for the answers, let's see what they can do!

I changed my old iPhone 3G 16Gb white, in terrible condition to this HD2 and paid 100€ Yeah android or WP7 would be soo super cool, the customizability is the thing why I chose HD2! It's amazing how there are still developers developing new stuff for HD2, I highly aprreciate their work
Waiting for their reply from the warranty center!

Still no reply, wow. Today I got a message that my phone will be back in two weeks. Slow service.
They also told me, that as the usb is LOOSE when you plug the cable in, it may be my fault. wow. So they're not repairing it for free i quess..
My phone is back..
Ok, got my phone back. The mohterboard has been damaged, they told me it had got wet. That's something what's not under warranty, so they're not repairing it for free. The repair would cost almost 500€ so it's totally not worth it. The report says: USB-Connectiong is loose (from other components), also injury with water in screen and motherboard.
Seems that the last owner already knew it's damaged and sold me a damaged one, as he told me it's working 100%.
So, I don't have a clue what to do next. I think I should try repairing it myself but is it worth it? Or worth trying? Where can i get the parts and tutorials how to do this? I think i gotta only repair the usb thingy but i'm not sure - I'd love to get some help now. Thanks in advance.

I had the exact same problem and it seemed that my cable was loose. You can try repairing it by yourself (it's not under warranty) or trying different pc/cable.
Try this : go to your pc and remove USB driver from application control panel,and after reconnect hd2.
Probably us not a cable problem, but drivers problems.
Bye.

[Q] HTC Trophy battery charging problem

Hello Guys,
i have a problem with my Trophy.
A few days ago it stops charging. Not by usb port from PC or the charger.
I charged the battery externally and the Trophy is working normal.
Windows doesnt recognize the Trophy anymore.
When i go into bootloader menu, Windows does recognize the device,
and i was able to flash ROMs. I tried to flash a few ROMs (now the Touch-IT Trophy v2)
and it flashes without Problem and it runs again.
Just charging isnt working and windows doesnt recognize the device when its normal startet up to WP7.
I tried with diferent Usb cables and PC's. Always the same thing.
Any suggestions what it could be?
Could it be the Vcc pin on the usb port?
Best regards,

My 2nd Verizon Trophy has this issue. I have to get the USB cable "just right" to get it to flash, and it doesn't accept a charge. I haven't replaced or tried soldering the USB port yet, but I bought the phone 2nd hand and the USB port is really worn out. I really have no additional advice for you. :/ If you find out if HTC can fix it, let me know because I want to fix my other phone too.
*edit* Checkout this guide that was recently posted on the front page of xda-developers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1856180. Talks about cleaning the USB port out. Might be worth a shot, I know I am going to try it.
Thank you TheXev for your quick answer.
I just found out that the problem in my case is only software.
I idiot set my usb mode to "Diag mode", and that was the source of my problem.
I'm suprised that even a flash of another ROM isnt changing that setting, but ok.
I changed it back to Zune mode and windows does recognize my device, and its charging again.

Problems with Nexus 6p not mounting to my computer.

First and foremost I already have the drivers installed properly on the computer the OEM cable and a few others to be sure it wasnt a cord or computer issue.. But when i plug the phone into the computer the nexus doesn't show up either as i mass storage device or even in device manager. To see where I'm coming from I bought the nexus online and the seller sold it for parts and said the phone was in alright condition and said that it works in excellent condition before he wiped the phone and that it had no OS and that he didnt know how to fix. So I thought it was just a simple fix and bought it. Lucky the phone came with twrp already so i plugged in the phone and nothing happened, and I tried sideload and also didnt work. like i said before i installed all the drivers and everything so thats not the problem. I tried the Nexus Root Toolkit and didnt work. I even did the OG way by manually using fastboot but the computer didnt detect the phone. The only method i have left to use is the OTG method so i wouldn't need the computer. Has anyone had this problem before? I searched everywhere to see if anyone had this problem but couldn't. But if you guys already made a thread for this specific problem shoe me. Im thinking its a hardware issue something to do with the port
That's a tough one hopefully it reads OTG and you can flash something. I would grab latest udated twrp and flash first in current recovery. A lot of the new stuff requires it.
this happened to me after owning my Nexus 6P for almost a year. When I plugged the phone into my computer's USB port. Windows didn't acknowledge it BUT the phone was charging.
turns out I needed to get my daughterboard/USB port changed. Sent it in to HUAWEI and they did it for free under warranty (I was without a phone for like 8 days).
I am actually starting to have this problem now... I am certain I am well out of warranty. Plus... I don't trust Huawei.
