i attempted to root my phone thats running froyo using the How-To [Root] The myTouch 3GS if you updated to Offical 2.2.1 and lost root method....needless to say it didnt work for me and was in a bootloop (Hboot said the bootloader was bypassed when trying to update) so what i did afterwards was batt pull and did a hard reset-clear storage and everything went back to normal so i hooked my phone to pc and attempted to try the process again but not the pc doesn't reconize the phone using usb and when i unplug the phone from usb it ALWAYS reboots... also the phone is not reading my sd card(sd card is fine i put it in my card reader and all files are still on there) any help?
as a side note to all who jus peeked at the thread.....when i connect the the phone to pc via usb i only have the sync and charge option...crazy thing is it still works running 2.1update jus no access to sd..so at least its not bricked right????
As a starting point I would suggest you save all the important files from your sd card onto your pc and then reformat the card on the phone(if it allows it) or using sd formatter or other software on your pc.

tried that already its like the phone is not reading the card or pc i used an adaptor to format the card in FAT32 and had the same issue.. but the phone still works fine...any other ideas?
You can try going into recovery using Droid explorer (pc software) and see if you might be able to mount the sd card that way.
In addition, you might need to reinstall the drivers for your phone on the computer, if I'm not mistaken installing HTC sync on your computer should take care of the drivers for you.

What you can do is start over by flashing the stock esprimg. And see if that puts back to stock with working usb

im trying to root my samsung epic 4g and fascinate i dl the drivers .. it says debugging connected i come from the hero forums so i understand a bit .... .now i try to use the one click root and it says phone not connected ..... y also on my windows it installed the drivers when the phone was inserted thanks
also when i connect phone to usb it says mount and when i hit it i do not see it on my computer wats wrong ?
to see your phone you must mount the sd card. and you need the sdk tool on your computer.
please correct me if im wrong.........any one?
It might be a problem with your usb cable. Are you using the cable that came with the epic? If so get a new one the one that comes with the epic is crap. Try monoprice.com they have good cables and great prices.

Try rooting without your SD card in the phone. unplug the USB, take your SD card out, plug in the usb, run the root.
See if that works.

Hey guys. I have this problem with my inc.
Whenever i plug in my usb cord to a computer, my phone does not notify me about debugging or usb mounting. Is this a hardware problem or a software problem? My phone charges fine when pluggin in to the wall charger or a computer. Im currently running CM6.1 stable, tiamat's kernel, and my gingerbread theme. I do not recall when this started to happen, but i really need some help. Thanks in advance!

Ok back up the sdcard on the computer Like just put all the files somewhere
Then go to start/computer then right click the sd card click format and make sure click format isnt selected. After thats done put everything back on it.
Now since i wrote that i hope you have a micro sdcard adapter lol

Wireless?
Perhaps try Wireless ADB from the market and see if issue persists?
Similarly, I have used SwiFTP for many months to move files to/from PC.
As such, haven't had to connect USB cable from device to PC in quite a while.
ymmv

Nope. Nvm. Did some research and it was tiamat's 2.2.1 kernel that messed up my drivers on my phone

have you tried going into recovery and mounting your phone to your computer with the usb ms option, that will put your phone as a disk drive on the computer, or take sd card out and place it on an adaptor and plug it to your pc copy the rom, and then put it back in your phone

You need to mount usb from recovery before your pc will find your phone. Htc sync only works when the device is booted to a sense rom. It won't work from aosp(miui), or from recovery.

, bummer, but if you can go into recovery, like your first post says, why dont you just restore your backup, i hope you did one its in every thread about rooting, back ups are your number one friend.

Run the RUU and unroot it then you can be able to reroot and create a nandroid

it sounds like your sd card might have gotten corrupted, which would suck, if you can get your hand on an adaptor and plug it to pc, there is an option to check it for errors, or if you know someone with an evo i would buy an sd card and put the rom in there with their phone and then put it back to your phone
how do you run ruu
check out this thread. hopefully it helps.

OMFG! Pull the sdcard, put it in another phone or a card reader. Put a new ROM on the card. Then put it back in your EVO. Reboot to Recovery. Wipe everything. Flash ROM.

Download the rom on your pc, connect the phone to the c via usb cable, on the phone select mount as disk drive, it'll pop up on your pc, drag it over, unmount / disconnect, reboot into recovery, do all the wipes I listed previously [dalvik cache is located under advanced] then install zip > select and flash, reboot.
my computer isent showing my device is it maybe because htc sync?
Did you mount as Usb mass storage in clockworkmod?

are you on a work computer? It is possible that your network administrator doesn't allow portable drives on their computers
no im not i got this computer like 2 weeks ago. When my evo was working 2 days ago it would connect know it not
Up until last week my phone would read fine on the computer, my evo has been flashed to metro fully working for sometime up until i just recently changed my number now my web or picture messages will not work. I cant get computer to recognize the phone. I have done a full restore on phone etc and tried to go into DM command mode yet nothing!! The same usb cord i use now was the one i used to program the phone anyone with same problem that found solutions?
Take out your sdcard and put it into a computer. Run check disk on it or format it and see if it fixes it. I had problems with corrupt data on mine and formatted it to fix it.

Yeah you can format it through recovery, just make sure you have backed up your SD card contents.
