Everything was working fine, then all of a sudden one day my VZW G2 won't connect to my pc through usb. I can still charge fine, and if I use the wireless storage that lg provides I can access my files. I think I'm going to have to get it replaced under warranty. How do I get back to stock, unrooted without the ability to hook up via usb? I'm going crazy here trying to figure this out!

I've never had the need to use WMWifiRouter as a 3G to USB connection, but my modem at home is dead and won't be replaced until Tuesday. 3 days is quite a ways to go without Internet! So, I used WMWifiRouter 1.51 to enable the 3G to USB connection for my desktop PC.
After I was done with the 'net, I turned off WMWifiRouter and unplugged my phone. I then realized I needed to upload a few things on my phone, so I plug it back in to use it as a storage device. Problem is, my computer immediately detects my phone as a tether rather than the storage device. I've enabled the option so my phone asks me what type of connection it wants to create, but my computer keeps forcing the tether instead.
I know it's the way my computer is seeing my Touch Pro 2, but I was hoping somebody else may have run into the same issue before and found a resolution.
Thanks in advance!
I just used WM last night as a test, and then finally sync'd up my outlook 2000 contacts and calendar today.
Are you absolutely sure that WM has stopped running? I know on my diamond, the task manager option would NOT show some running apps after it was running without a soft reboot for like 2 months.
I haven't tried a "storage connect" yet though, I don't think I've ever used that.
I am absolutely positive it has stopped running completely. I used the built-in task manager with SKTools to verify. Even after a soft reset on my phone, my computer still does it.
Like I said, I know it's just the way my computer is now detecting my phone, but I was hoping somebody here had the same problem in the past.
I find it a little funny... I used my phone as a temporary solution to not having internet at home and now it only leads to more problems
Try uninstalling the drivers that your computer installed for the TP2, it would be in the Control Panel->Device Manager . Honestly i have no clue which one they would be but by doing this your computer will have to reinstall the USB drivers for your phone and re-recognize your phone.
Tried it. My computer installed it as a modem, but uninstalling the drivers didn't help. My comptuer would still detect it every time and reinstall the modem drivers.
Hard resetting my phone fixed this. It's the worst solution, yes, but it still worked. Fortunately, it only takes about 20 minutes to get everything back in order once more.
Thanks for the help anyways.
UPDATE: Ran into the same problem again last night. Fortunately, I found a better solution.
I made the USB to PC connection automatically connect to ActiveSync and disabled "Enable faster data synchonization." Disconnected and reconnected my phone and I was able to use the Disk Drive option once more without having my PC automatically see it as a Windows Mobile Modem
Okay, today I connected my hd2 to my computer like normal via USB. When I connect it, my service via 3g or edge completely turn off! I have to disconnect the USB and reboot to get service back. I tried going to airplane mode, etc but only a soft restart works to get my signal back.
Any ideas?
I've noticed that too. It's like you lose your internet as soon as you connect to your PC. At first I thought, WTF?? But I think it's common. I've learned to accept it. : /
loss of phone too
The thing is I loose ALL connections. That means I lose my phone too. Which is not how it has been for the last month. All of a sudden I don't have connection anymore while tethered via USB to my PC to sync my files. That is weird.
Hi All,
Can anyone help me in getting the issue resolved that I am facing.
Few days back all of a sudden my PC stopped detecting my Phone (Samsung Vibrant). I thought it might be an issue with my PC so I tried to connect the phone storage on some other PC, but the result are still the same.
I am also not getting any pop up notification on my phone to "Mount".
I can download anything to my phone via direct internet browsing but cannot transfer or upgrade my phone via my PC.
I checked all the setting and also restored my phone to Factory Default but still the issue persist.
Pleeeeeease guys can someone pleeeeease help!!!!!!!
Sorry to say this, but seems like a hardware problem. Did you tried with a different cable? Try Different port on the PC? What happens if you plug the phone to a wall charger?
Is the phone still on warranty? You can send it back to Tmo and get a "new" one.
Try a new cable.

Yes I tried different cable and also tried different port of PC but nothing happens. Also the other functions works as normal.
The phone charges when I connect to my wallcharger or PC. I often get a messag from my PC that the harware is detected but is not properly installed.
Any clues, also I cannot send it to TMO because I am not in states right now and TMO does not works here.
will flashing the ROM work?????
This has happened to me before. What usually works is to reboot the computer and then connect your phone to it. Wait for the connection error message. Then go into ur device manager and find the "unknown" USB device. Make sure u both uninstall and delete the "unknown" device. Unplug the phone. Reboot the computer again. And once its finished booting up plug connect your phone again.
Always works for me.

One day I can use it with no problems, then another my laptop will not recognize the phone is connected via usb. I'm sure someone will ask why not just use the hotspot feature, but because of T-Mobile putting a cap on the data, using the tethering option when I need to use my laptop stops them from sending me the text saying I've been slowed down. I have HTC Sync installed, but when I go to open that to make sure the drivers are still ok, it just sits saying no device is connected. Maybe because I'm no longer on the stock rom? I don't know. Basically in order for me to get it working again I'd have to restore my laptop to a date when it was actually recognizing the phone via usb. With all that I've written here hopefully I can get a resolution.
T-mobile bases their data caps on your total data used. Whether your using it over USB or WiFi doesn't matter. If you regularly go over 5GB you're going to get throttled.
As for your tethering issue, I'm unsure. It sounds like there would be a driver problem if the computer can't recognize it, but if you're sure that you have the proper drivers then I'm not sure whatsup.
I installed drivers using the HTC sync before.. can something happen after that to where they would stop working?
i have an un-rooted LG G6, which was connecting to my PC just fine, so one day it gave me the message of blocked: moisture detected and from then on it refused to connect for data transfer or even charging, the same happened when plugged in to charge via its own charger, so i went the wireless charger route and it working fine. So anyway to connect again with MTP for simple fast data transfer, i don't want to remove each time my sd card and copy data and insert it again, it's way too much, come on LG, you can make better than that, give us an update and fix it.
Do you tried to clean the port with alcool?
