So recently I tried to plug my DHD into my computer and it didn't recognize that I had 1) inserted a USB into my comp, nor did my phone recognize that it had been inserted into the comp. 2) I no longer have option that used to pop up asking me what USB setting I wanted to use....3) the USB icon no longer appears on my notification bar. I only want to use it as an internet pass through and nothing else.
Can someone please tell me how to fix this?
I have tried turning it on and off several times and nothing (incl. removing battery, SD card and sim card), I have also checked the settings and the "Ask me" option is enabled...I don't know how to make that pop up option re-appear and how to make the USB icon appear.
Any ideas?
Please help.

I have rooted several times in the past. I believe I know what I am doing. Now that I have this ROM installed, when I plug my Evo into the usb, it does not even prompt me for connection type, such as internet sharing, mount disk etc. I try toggling usb debugging, still no go. What should I do? As of now I can not access my SD card because USB does not work, even tho the LED comes on as if it is charging.
This might help

I did the SD card thing. Didn't change anything. Can't do Fix USB because I can't access my SD card.
What rom are you using? Was it working previously? I'd try a restore from the last time you knew it was working.
Edit: can your computer read the Sd card if you put in a reader?

how would I do a restore? Also, I don't have a microSD card reader but I guess I will get one.
Any more ideas broskis? Sucks not being able to flash more roms. The "Choose a connection" box doesn't even pop up when plugged in via usb.
I got this a couple times today. Dunno what's up. Maybe an apk that was removed? Mine doesn't even want to charge anymore. 0.0 phone will charge for a second then nothing. Only have 40% life left.... ((
EVO disk drive confusion....
Hey guys, really new to the technical aspects of the android scene.... looking for some help....
I have an EVO 4g that WILL NOT mount as disk drive, on either of my 2 WIN 7 computers; it will charge, and the physical connection doesn't appear to be lose or damaged, as it connects to charge without problems. This is rooted w/ unrEVOked 3. Computer doesn't recognize it at all, either debugging off or on, with my default choice being 'mount as disk drive' and 'ask me every time' chosen.
It is not the USB port on the computer nor the cable, because another EVO, although newer, same setup, connected in the same way works just fine....
I have no issues with the phone reading the SD Card app2SD programs that I have on it... I have tried removing the SD card and battery and reseating them with nothing changing.... I rarely connect to the computer..... but I have almost the same set up on both phones as far as programs, ROOT method, etc.....
What should I look for that causes the computer not to recognize this one???
Any and all help would be appreciated, and I would be HAPPY to donate to any of you DEVS that can help me find and fix this!!!!!
THANKS!!!

I have a problm with my Evo as that it literally thinks its connected to a PC when it's not.
I had the phone, checked for a Astro Fime Manager for a file I placed on SD Card. When I was checking, most things appeared but when I checked other folders, like the Download folded, nothing showed in there. But I know I had files in that the folder.
I then connected the phone to my PC and without it asking me if I wanted to charge it, sync it, use it for disk drive or internet connection, it went straight to the "Use it as a disk drive" feature. Verified because soon as I plugged it into my computer, the SD Card opened on my PC.
I then clicked to have the phone just "Charging" and now I can see everything on my SD card again.
Do anyone know what this problem could be or how to fix it? I thought it was one of the SD Card Problems that was occurring to some phones. But according to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
Their SD card stopped working altogether before doing the fix.
Another question about this, will "Debugging" cause this if left on? I had it one for doing the adb stuff when I rooted etc.
Turn off the auto USB switch in the settings of Double Twist.

Thank you so much!!!!! I've been wondering why it was doing this. I was about to go buy a new SD card.
Thanks again!
I had this same problem a while back. I wonder why they thought this was a useful feature. They could have just changed the default option for when you plug in the USB.
Hi i just rooted my phone, everything seems fine however my phone now refuse to deisplay the usb plug mode when connecting to the computer, i try to toggle it under settings it wont help, the sd card is still fine, however the problem is i could notview my sd card when connected to pc because the notification has gone? anyone has similar problem?????
Check under Settings> Connect to PC if the Ask Me option is checked. Also, you can change the connection option there.
For some reason, my phone will not give me the option to mount my SD card as a disk drive all of a sudden...
I'm using CM 7.0.2.1 with Tiamat 3.3.8 as my kernel. Anyone know how I might be able to fix it?? I'm trying to put KingdomRom on it but can't because I can't mount .
I've also tried a full wipe and reinstalling the ROM with a different kernel...and I'm still not getting anything. I've tried multiple USB cords as well.
I would try unmounting your SD card in Settings then reboot the phone.
Didn't work . I thought originally it might have something to do with the kernel, but I've changed to a different one and it still isn't working.
When you connect your phone to the computer, does the charging light come on? What happens when you tap the notification that says your phone is connected to the computer? Do you get the screen with the option to mount and it doesn't, or do you not get the notification at all?
Have you tried using something like Widgetsoid to toggle usb mount? I had a similar problem on Sense and using a widget to toggle mounting the phone as disk drive was the only way I could get it to work.
(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
Also, what recovery are you using?
Sent from my sometimes infected,MIUI,Kings UNleashed Ultra Supersonic EVO...
Using ClockworkMod. I just stupidly reformatted my SD card after reflashing my ROM, so now once I am able to redownload GApps, I'm gonna download one of the widgets (might try AutoSync, too) and see if I can make progress in the morning.
Update: Got Market back on, downloaded Widgetsoid, enabled USB Mount...and still nothing. I've tried on 2 computers now with different USB cables and nothing.
Is it saying that your phone is connected to your PC at all? It could be your USB port, or your cable is going bad. Try plugging it in to the computer and jiggling the plug near the phone's usb port and see if it tries to connect. If it does, you may have to move it around until you get it to connect and then be very careful not to move anything while transferring files. Also if you have wifi you can transfer files by using an app from the market called wifi file explorer. They have a free and a paid version. Does you phone connect when you mount it to the computer in recovery mode? Does the charging light come on when you plug it in to your computer? Really more info is needed to diagnose your problem. There are also widgets in the market that will allow you to mount the phones storage without unmounting the card from the phone. Maybe this will work for you. Maybe the card is going bad? Who knows, but hopefully some of my suggestions help. If all else fails, you could always do it the old fashioned way and power the phone off, take the card out and plug it directly into your computer via the adapter if needed.
Yes, I do receive a charge light when I plug it into the computers USB. Android just does not provide the option to mount as a disk drive.
I like the Wifi File Explorer Idea. It sounds like a good alternative. Thanks so much to everyone for their suggestions!
I would love to root my evo but when connected via usb it only charges my phone. No pop up menu asking me what I want to do, it just charges my phone. I've enabled usb debugging and tried my default connection type as charge only and disk drive both. Can I still root if I can only access my sd card by removing it? Please help
