Hi Guys, hopefully someone can help me here it is driving me crazy - well, here is my issue.
Doesnt matter what PC I plug my HD into it doesnt get picked up, i looked in device manager and still nothing. Its like its not connected, but it shows on the phone that it is charging. And does charge.
Can someone please help?
Thanks!
Settings - Connection - USB to PC - uncheck 'enable advanced network functionality'
All that was there is ' Enable faster data synchronization '
No advanced network functionality. Im on Telstra NextG Network Australia with there crappy stock rom if that helps.
I'm looking at a stock Touch HD and you're right- they changed the name of the box. So uncheck 'enable faster data synchronization'.
I did but it is still not working.
I have also done a hard reset and restore to manufacturers default and still not working.
What kind of PC are you using? Is it XP? If so you need to download ActiveSync.
Using XP.. I have downloaded and installed Activesync. It used to be picked up on every pc and suddenly now it doesnt.
Opened Activesync ports in your firewall settings?
Yeah its all fine, its as though the PC doesnt even recognise it. Doesnt show up in Disk Management.
hi lucky
you're already the 3rd one with this problem.
if you plug-in the usb connector, is there a dialog popping up on your hd which let's you choose between synch or hd mode?
if not, welcome to the group of disapointed htc owners.
there is already a thread somewhere about this problem. i have exactly the same, but no one could help me until now.
at least i found a way to flash a rom. the usb connection was working for about 20 minutes. afterwards it broke down again...
try the following:
1. shut down hd
2. remove SD and Sim Card
3. plug in the usb cable
4. do a hard reset by holding vol up and vol down while you press the power button
5. confirm the hardware reset
6. when the hd is booting up again, it will do some kind of customization process. during this process active sync should come up on your pc. cancel the device setup in acive sync and wait until your hd is completely configured.
7. afterwards reconnect the usb cable and active sync should work for a while...
let me know if it helped. i'm still searching for a permanent solution for this problem...
Nope, didnt work at all.
Not even the choice to decide what I want to do pops up on the phone.
Do you think it could be a hardware fault?
I think it is a hardware fault because i did a SPL boot and instead of 'USB' showing in the white box "Serial" did.
It just seems wierd because it was working fine for 2 weeks and then it all the sudden stopped and I did no ROM flashing or anything.
Should I try reflashing my device through the SD card and see how I go from there?
did you try a different cable???
I have about 20 different USB -> mini USB and only about 2/3 of them work with phones !!!
Yeah ive tried all different cables, ive tried ones that work with my diamond but still dosent work with my hd.

Are you getting anything popping up in device manager when you plug it in, in other words does the list refresh like it has detected a new hardware device or is it completely silent? I have seen it a couple of times where a device gets stuck as being recognized as something else. If the list does scroll (responds to the HD being plugged in) do a screen shot of everything in DM then plug the HD in and compare the lists to see if it is showing up as something else. If so, delete the device then unplug and plug in the HD again and have it reinstall the driver.
Good luck,
Gordo
I did what you said Gordo, and it doesnt show up inDevice Manager. Its as though its not even plugged in but for some reason it still recharges off the USB.
I guess about the only other thing I can think of is to plug it in on another PC and see if that computer tries to load a driver. If it does then it is something strange with your computer. If it doesn't then there is something bad with the USB port on the HD (maybe).
Gordo
Yeah I tried that but still nothing, im sending it back to Telstra, since its within 14 days of me getting it I get a whole brand new one!
thanks for your help guys
Hello all. Sorry to post about this, but I see it's a somewhat common issue with some other 'Droids and figured I'd toss this in here to see if anyone else has had any issues.
Basically, whenever a USB cable is plugged into my computer and the phone, the screen stops responding properly. I've heard this could be a kernel issue?
Any suggestions?
not sure, its it fully unresponsive? I have minor issues with it not working for time to time but it will come around. This is both on and off USB. I just wiped everything and reinstalled super clean 1.0 and that fixed it, I also installed only apps I need and none are on SD as I think SD is not so responsive in this leak. My gallery app takes forever to load and I have a class 6 SD card.
I'm using RubikS' ROm of Froyo and just pluged my phone into my computer and the gui and all touch elements are working without issue. What version of Froyo are you using?

I notice this when I'm charging the phone, I just avoid having to use it while it's plugged in.
I have my phone pluged in at work to my laptop all the time and have never seen an issue with the touch screen.
Not all USB power connections are the same
I have the USB provided with my fascinate. In addition, I have a cheap power only mini-USB connector. When I use the latter, on any ROM, I find the touch screen to be non responsive. When I use the stock power it works. Just a FYI, so please check your power cord first.
I'm using the stock cable that came with my phone (of which I picked up this last Saturday).
Right now, I'm running the Blackhole ROM, it happens quite often, but there are a few instances where the touchscreen does work fine. It seems to happen mostly whenever the screen goes to sleep and requires an unlock.
I don't think it could be the Blackhole rom, as it would have been more widely reported... could it be? I have absolutely no issues otherwise with it (Except pressing the redial button crashes the dialer and hitting "Setup Wizard" in the options causes an exception/FC)
this has always happened to me, i think its just an electric interference from the charger to the screen. a better cable might fix the problem but i'm not positive on that, just conjecture
Don't use 3rd party chargers/ cables, this is a known issue to messing up the touchscreen. Also hold your phone while you use it, you need to do this because it seems to ground the phone and make it responsive. I have tested this on a few phones and they do not like it when you touch the screen while you are not holding it.
Hi all,
I have the Shield Pro, running 5.1, and it won't start
It was working fine yesterday, but when I got home from work this evening, it was unresponsive. The power light was stuck on, but would not respond to any controller input or, as far as I can tell, any USB input.
I pulled the power out, and plugged it back in, and the light came on instantly. No display on the TV. I plugged it into my PC, but Windows doesn't see anything attached (I have tried multiple cables). If I hold the power button for five seconds, the device just turns off. If I touch the power button even just briefly, the green light comes back on. I can't get into Fastboot or anything. There is no HDMI output at all.
This is, naturally, really quite annoying.
However, after having it hooked up to my PC via USB for a while (not sure how long, sorry!), my computer bleeped like it does when a new USB device has been discovered, and bingo! I now have an "APX" device, with no drivers installed.
So. Who knows about APX mode for this thing?
I'm pretty sure APX is a low level recovery mode.. I recall reading that elsewhere.
go to the developers nvidia site amd search on how to reflash via apx
yeah, I had to use it on my old LG Optimus 2X, back in the day. There's nothing on the nVidia developer site about using it though

Apx mode ( and yes without drivers - couldn't even find around in Internet...) on pc ×device manager× shows me on my 500gb console when I removing internal shdd and connected with pc whiteout shdd (one day nothing to do and decide need open and have look what is inside in console...shdd, motherboard, cooler etc) . Another words sounds those symptoms very similar with my tests, but in my case that was mine experiments/investigations/discovery and your looks like you have some serious storage problem or kind of problem relaited with - can't read os or even bootloader which is on 500gb shdd or flash memory modul on 16gb.

after googling for a bit , i saw some references to the shield tablet, i think someone had an APX driver, maybe you could try that?
I could do, but APX mode is really, really dangerous. You need to know byte offsets and all that :S

if you know apx and you have all necessary stuff from Nvidia (which is not provided for public) you can replace internal drive or even ssd by installing bootloader, recovery, os etc straight on new drive from pc which is main factor why we can't swap them so easily, like 1 - 2tb drive or ssd - which would be fantastic ?. P.s. Something simular protection is for Xbox360 drives.

if that's the case you might have to send it for a warranty repair.. better not playing around if it's under warranty.
an idea for apx
move your shdd from shield and connect to pc then use this program(R-Studio 8.0) or other to restore date on u shdd I think it most work good luck

I have tab p7500 and have this problem apx only jtag help me in apx mode you should now wish sbl for tegra x1 and have nvflash for shield pro sorey for my English the easy way use jtag or tray to restore data in shdd
would there be a way to just dd- flash a new recovery withthe hdd removed from the unit? I am having te same no logo, no bootloader issue and am trying to either find apx drivers (non-existent) or a workaround. There has to be a way.....
i have the same question. My intrest is more in tinkering with the tegra x1 exploit in order to get a different root solution not contingent on nvidias closed source crap. I'm running a 2015 foster model and it is getting increasingly difficult to find tutorials on that system specifically with the newer updates. +i am interested in learning the process to exchange the hdd and mopy and manipulate the widevine keys that don't work on mine after the forced 7.2.3 update that occured with all update sofware removed from my system that also fried my controller with a botched firmware update that is blacklisted and not mentioned on the internet except people asking and all replies deleted. you know general unfettered access to the system without the bootloaders say so . All of this should now be possible now that the real hackers have gotten involved and decided they want to promote this exploit for homebrew it has caused several low level apx drivers to popup in corners ive found myself in from time to time if somebody will just get them to do it for the shield tv instead of the shield tab and the switch it is proven to work.
Hi,
I broke my LCD display a couple of months ago still, I managed to use the phone with the epaper display and eventually reinstall it without clearly writing down the exact procedure (with Lolipop)
Today, as my Marshmallow update freezed, I had to wipe all, thinking well I could easily find the steps to start the phone again.
The only problem remains that Setup Wizard wants us to use the LCD display, and I can't.
The last time I managed to use screen mirroring on Windows, with androidscreencast-0_3_1.jnlp, which is dicontinued.
To that extend, I allowed USB debugging (three lines to add) on system/build.prop and default.prop and copied a file from my computer (adbkeys.pub) to a certain folder in the device, to allow my PC to operate on the cellphone
But that last step doesn't work anymore.
I can see a dialog briefly popping up on the yotaphone, prompting me to allow the computer for debugging, but I can't click.
Droid Explorer tells me that this yotaphone is not allowed in $Vendor (or so on, I can't remember well).
So I managed to authorize the screen mirroring before, to start the phone, but I can't right now, although I found a new app, androidscreencast-0.0.10s-executable.jar.
I would have to copy adbkeys.pub to data/misc/adb/adb_keys, but as of today, that directory doesn't exist.
Can somebody please help me with that?
Thanks,
Hi,
I solved a similar situation by plugging a mouse to the phone using a usb to micro USB adapter (also called USB OTG adapter).

Thank you for answering. And what do it do to plug a mouse?
I've made it : the phone starts again.
If anyone is interested, I'll tell the trick for a broken front screen like mine.
Now I'm looking forward to make an image backup of it as it is very fresh if it can save me or others !
And I need advices for that?
Hi!!!
I have the sale problem
How did you bypass the wizzard???
hi. how do you bypass setup wizard? i had mine reset due to stuck. before im using only back screen. please help!
My front screen also stopped working all of a sudden without me doing anything. I was able to use the eInk so I did a factory reset. Now however I'm stuck since I can't boot the phone without a working front screen. I was wondering if a software issue stops the front screen from working and if there is a way to check/fix it.
So I've been having this odd issue I've been dragging for a while now since I think it's a lost cause, but maybe someone can help me here.
Way back when Nougat was rolling out I waited for several months but my device (XT1575 - not rooted or unlocked) wouldn't get the update notification.
So I looked in here and there were several easy guides to apply the OTA update via recovery manually, so I did so and it worked just fine.
After a couple of days, I noticed an odd thing where I didn't get notifications immediately and my wifi connection was like not on all the time if the screen was off... the second I turn on the screen, notifications start popping up so much that it's a clear sign some of them were just not getting received. (I don't have any power saver mode/app enabled and my 2nd phone works on the same wifi and is working fine).
Also, when I tried connecting the phone to my PC, it wouldn't recognize it anymore... quick-charge and USB-OTG are also not working at all (flash drives with a light will just blink once when inserted and then just stop working).
I took the phone apart, the USB connector looks brand new and is very sturdy, no broken solder points, dust or dirt anywhere.
I also used a multimeter to check and all contact points in the USB port have a good continuity connection to their contact points on the board.
Any ideas? I would love to unlock it and try to solve the wifi connection thing with a new/fresh ROM, but with no USB, I'm stuck :/

You said your flash drives were't working right? Then it's probably the motherboard on your computer or it's missing the correct drivers. Try testing the phone on another computer you can go to a local library if you can't use someone else's computer. Also go into your notification settings and make sure do not disturb is off and look at "when device is locked" and make sure it's set to show all notification content.

I said the flash drives weren't working with USB-OTG (with the phone), not the PC... the flash drives are A-OK on the PC.
The Motorola drivers are the latest from Motorola and they manage to detect my Moto G2 without any issues.
I also checked the Moto X on two other PCs... neither the phone nor the PCs are detecting anything as being connected, apart for the phone getting a charge.
In the notification settings, in "On the lock screen" it's set to "Show all notification content".
One more thing I researched is the USB port pins... apparently, for the phone to detect a regular wall charger the DATA+ and DATA- pins are supposed to be shorted (connected together) via the charger.... if it's connected to a PC/smart device the pins are not supposed to be shorted.
I checked with several chargers and with all of them the phone displays (in the battery menu) that it's "Charging over USB" (PC) when it should have displayed "Charging on AC"... meaning that it doesn't even detect the short that the DATA pins are supposed to have.
