My HTC Hero CDMA Cellular South, the USB doesnt work what so ever. When I plug it in I get no message or sound of it connecting and it just starts charging. Its a stock ROM, on 2.1.... any help? I have tried rooting the device before but quit before doing any flashing of the ROM because of the lack of information of the tutorial I was following. Please guys I really want my usb back
So your phone charges when its plugged in? But you cannot connect it to your computer to mount the sdcard. You may want to try running the RUU in fastboot mode.

Could you tell me what exactly this does and how I can do it? RUU im pretty sure is the updater, am I updating the ROM again to maybe fix the problem?
Update: I checked the USB cable and swapped in a different cable and everything is working just fine. Sometimes it's the simple things!
I'm having the same problem on my Sprint Hero, running CM6 with Kernel #14. I just loaded kernel #14 last night and this is the first time I tried to use USB access.
It's like it's not connected to the computer...but it is charging.
Ive already tried a differnt usb port and cable so, how can I reflash my rom without usb support?

Okay, I just got done putting GodSpeed Recovery on my hero and toggled the usb and im still getting no indication of the usb working on my computer
You might want to look through manage applications in settings or some where in settings and clear the default for what to do when you plug your phone in.
Do you have a wireless router. You could install adbwireless from the market and get stuff to and from your phone.
Have you tried it on a different computer
You might want to delete the drivers on the computer for your phone, reboot computer and then plug the phone back into the computer and let it load the drivers.

I have tried everything, I have reinstalled drivers used 3 differnt computer with 3 differnt operating systems. is there a way I can reflash the ROM without it being connected to the computer... say my sd card...?
I just hard reset the phone and still nothing...
When you connect your phone and do
Code:
adb devices
do you get anything?
I had this very same problem a few weeks ago. I was using the original usb cable that came with the phone when i got it back in march. Simply trying a new "stronger" looking cable did the trick for me.
Although, I think you have already tried this.

THANK YOU!!! I've been waiting for someone else to have the same problem!!! I'm relieved it's not just mine. I'm assuming you did a manual install also? Is yours rooted? One person suggested ClockworkMod but I'm a little nervous about rooting. I've been doing the manual installs but that's as for as I wanna go. I can't stand the idea of bricking my phone.
My phone is new out of the box!
I found that on two Windows XP machines USB storage doesn't work. I then plugged it into a Win7 box and it worked perfectly. I also used a different cable with the Win7. Try a different cable and try Win7.

I have Windows XP on my work PC and Windows 7 Premium 64 on my home notebook and the USB worked fine on 2.3.3. Every since I did the manual install of 2.3.4 the USB functionality is gone. I'm thinking maybe the ROM is used wasn't incomplete. It's beginning to look like the only way to fix this is to root my phone
FWIW I did the manual update (full rom) and USB storage works fine on my Windows 7 Ultimate x64 box.

Yeah, I'm thinking maybe the one I installed wasn't the full ROM. As soon as I see people saying it works great I go ahead and use it. Do you know of any possible fixes without rooting?
No first hand experience, but would it be possible to download the full rom and manually flash it again?

Trying to figure that out. I've been told try ClockworkMod and go back to 2.3 but I'm trying to do it without rooting.
Try a different USB port
If the update was incomplete, the update would have failed the signature check. The first time I connected my Nexus S after manually patching to 2.3.4, Windows 7 Professional X64 did not detect it when connected. I unplugged it and used a different USB port and it worked. I then tried the original port and it also worked. I would try a different USB port and a scan in Device Manager before changing the ROM.

I also have Windows 7 Prof. 64 bit, but switching to different ports didn't work. It won't install the drivers. What else could that mean if it isn't the ROM?
I had this problem immediately after flashing CWM.
I booted into the ROM, then, while the USB was plugged in, powered off the device, and turned it back on. It then seems to work everytime I turn on the device, as long as I don't boot into recovery.
Me too

I had a the same problem with my SGS.
The trick for me did: disable usb-legacy-support in your motherboard-bios.
Have you tried re-installing USB driver from the latest android SDK?
Kind of strange, it was working great yesterday and today couldn't connect. Right clicked on android_winusb.inf and selected install and it started working again. Not sure what could have changed from one day to the next. But at least I know what to do when it happens again.

Never tried that. Doesn't that involve rooting or unlocking the bootloader? Both of those wipe the USB storage.

Don't have a custom ROM. All I did was manual bootload 2.3.4 on stock Android. The weird thing is when it's plugged in(charging only) and I turn it off, it starts to power down and then freeze. The screen doesn't go black until I pull it out. Then when I plug it back in it automatically powers back on. Basically, I can't seem to plug it in while it's powered off.
I have no idea why but my suddenly works again. Im happy but confused
You shouldn't need any drivers at all for windows XP vista 7 ect. Mounting your SD card, using flash drives... all use the same USB mass storage divice driver built into windows.

Yes, I just tried this. It still doesn't seem to work. It keeps saying my drivers are up to date but it's still not connecting to my USB storage.
Hey Guys,
Been following threads here for a while; Actually was able to flash my phone to the new froyo that was developed through this forum onto my phone- It's been a great help!
As everyone knows, they finally released the update for our phones. I would like to put mine back to stock and then do the update through Verizon. I am running into a problem though..
I have downloaded the SamsungDriver.exe file and installed it, but when I plug in my phone via USB, my computer does not recognize it, only charges it. Ideas? I am running Windows 7 64-bit. Thanks in advance!

You need drivers specifically for our phone. Where did you get the ones you are attempting to use?
Also, check your usb settings, and make sure you are not set to charge only. Finally, check usb debugging in /settings/applications/development. I have a tutorial I made up for flashing to 09 with all the files you need here in the general section. See if it helps any.

Ok, so I have downloaded the new driver that you said to, but when I plug the phone into my computer, I still only get a charging response from my phone, no new device detection.. Hmm?

I know with my phone I have to reinstall drivers everytime after I plug my phone into computer, never recognize automatically, try plugging phone into computer then install drivers, see if that works.

Drivers
I would try getting them from the official samsung site thats where I got my drivers and they seem to work all the time my phone is always detected in odin.
You can get them right here:

First, lets make sure you have the drivers you need.
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SCH-I400ZKAVZW
That is the link to the driver download page at samsung, for our phone. Go down to the bottom, and click on drivers, then download the one that pops up. There is only one set. If these are the drivers you have, then lets make sure of the rest
1. Your phone is set to mass storage, or ask on connection (settings/usb)
2. (and you'll have to do this, anyway, after you check your usb settings) make sure debugging mode is checked (settings/applications/development).
3. Try a different usb port
4. check your cord
Also, when you first plug your phone in, after installing the drivers, give it a few minutes. Both when you are fully booted, and when you are in download mode. If you get a pop up saying 'installing device software' wait a few. When it says 'drivers successfully installed', or 'your device is ready to use' then you are good. But, it will take a minute or so to install.
If none of this works, let me know. Chances are you may have a bad cord. Especially if you are like me, and plug and unplug your phone several times throughout the day.
Im having an issue with my phone connecting to computer. I'm trying to get back to stock but have no way in getting into odin without usb. I think their is a problem with something on the phone it isn't a pc or cable problem. I also had a new flex port recently installed. My phone will charge when connected to computer but it will not sync nor even recognized by device manager. I cant find any info anywhere with this issue. I try to enable mtp through hidden menu using *#0808# but it wont stay enabled resets after reboot. I also cant find menu under settings for usb. There use to be a menu in storage but it seems like its not there anymore. im on beans 4.4.2 nc4 with nc2 bootloader. can't find a solution nowhere.
I have the same problem, been trying to search online for few days, can't find the solutions.

Try dl'g the Sammy drivers directly from here and just click on the "See all Downloads", click "Send" and save the .exe file.
Run it as administrator, and once complete, plug in phone and that should correct the pc to phone issue.

Enable developer mode (tap on settings, about and then tap on the build number 7 times to enable developer mode).
Then back to settings, developer options and turn on usb debugging.

. I have original VZ driver installed. and i tried running as admin
Already tried this. On multiple computers. It's not a driver problem it has to do with something that happen after flashing to the leaked kitkat. I flashed beans kitkat and firmware through odin and since then wasnt able to connect to computer via usb. I read somewhere you could flash back to mje but not sure if i could do that without odin. I covered all the basics including enabling developer mode etc.... Kies doesn't work either and that was suppose to be bullet proof. I vaguely remember something similar happening when we got Root de la Vega some people lost usb after flashing and couldn't odin back but cant find that thread with what they did to fix it.

Do you mean through hidden menu or should there be an app on the phone? I didn't disable it i tried to enable it through hidden menu because it wasn't working but it just resets after rebooting the phone. Also there use to be a menu in storage under settings i could get to but it no longer exists. If you go into settings- storage- it should be a button in the top right corner of your screen which leads you into settings for mtp but it's not there.

I too am having this issue... it is quite frustrating. I rooted using towel root and that worked fine up until the beginning of September then USB was gone gone gone!. I was thinking of just doing a factory-restore of my phone, but I am not sure that is possible with having Towel rooted my phone. I just don't know what steps to take. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
i am going to the local verizon store today and if they can not fix this, then i see no reason for me to continue to pay for my phone. there obviously is something wrong with all these phones that people are complaining about. i have been on the phone with verizon and samsung for HOURS. i now am a pro at knowing what's wrong but no one can help me. It does not stay in MTP mode or PTP and goes back to charging. this is a phone problem that should not even exsist. plug your phone in, upload pics. has anyone gotten verizon to replace the phone????that's my goal today
It takes two to tango; how do you know the problem is not the PC?
Older versions of stock software actually put the phone in Airplane Mode when you were using USB 3.0, and had an inactivity timer or something that would turn the USB link off after a while. That didn't happen if you were operating on a USB 2.0 link.
So, if your PC has any non-USB 3.0 ports (the connector will not be blue) you could try using a USB 2.0 port.
Sometimes intermittent behavior is caused by bad cabling or a damaged connector, so a second thing to try is using a replacement cable and/or alternate ports. (Don't buy bargain basement eBay $2 cables btw - you will get what you pay for)
good luck

no i have not tried but i tried different usb it works when the phone is off, and connects to oden i might wipe my laptop to see if that works
Did you install the drivers before hand? If not look for them install them then go to device manager in the computer find the phone, there should be an exclamation mark right click and press update drivers or right click and uninstall, once the device is uninstalled unplug the phone wait a sec or two then plug it back in
