[Q] connect to PC problem - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I connect my evo to my pc via usb it only charges the phone, it won' allow me to access my evos harddrive or sync or tether. Is there a simple setting that I'm missing? I'm not rooted and running GB 2.3.3. Sorry but I'm a noob and would appreciate some help.

try going into settings and look for the connection type. you can change it. its probably just set to charge only and not ask. Don't know where in settings exactly cuz i haven't rocked sense since...since...since....

Can it have anything to do with usb debugging being enabled or not?

USB cable + Internet Sharing. Works like a charm.

just plug it in
all you have to is plug the usb into phone amd then go to start menu /accesories and click internet sharing. it should connect if you are having problems check these thingsgo into activesync on desktop amd connection setting make sure the box is check that allows networking. also you can go into setting/connections then click more and click on usb to pc, and enable advanced network capabilities. lastyl close active completely ctr+alt+del process and kill wescom,rapi,and one u should see it. give it another try. it is super simple no drivers needed

Connect via USB with PC and download data

Hi,
I had a HTC Touch HD and i just bought a HTC Desire and i'm a noobie in this android stuff.
My question is:
How can i connect to my PC, not with HTCSync but with usb connection only to download data from my PC to my Desire. For example weather, mail account, watch videos from YouTube, etc.
Help me please...
Thanx
If you have it updated to Froyo, it should be no problem just to plug in the USB cable and
choose USB tethering. But why not use the built in WIFI tether, then you can use your
device as a WIFI hotspot, that any computer can connect to. ;-)
I have Android version 2.2 and i plug in the USB cable and choose USB tethering and i can't update weather or mail account or anything else.
What i have to do?
Thanx

updated cyanogen to stable....wtf...

so I updated to the stable release for rc1 tonight and also installed a new theme. For some reason when I connect the USB to the phone the notification bar saysconneceted and USB debugging enabled but when I got to the tethering options it acts as though I'm not connected via USB. This is pissing me off because I need it to use internet. Do you guys think its the theme?
One other thing. The USB icons do not show up on top either....
Sorry for the reposts..... anyway I just didanother reflash and its the same thing..... USB comes on for a second then disconnects. My phone charges fine off the wall so I k ow its not a connection issue. Is it this rom? I really need USB working so I can tether my internet...

Reboot your computer and phone. That usually solves it for me.

Windows 7 wont let me tether correctly. I cannot get an IP

UPDATE: I can tether with the built in Froyo tether function on a macbook pro. Which means the problem is with Windows 7!
EDIT: I realize that my wording may be confusing. well ive tried PDANet and that works, so i can only assume other third party ones will also work.
My problem is that Froyo has this built in, but i cannot get THAT to work.
Ive tried using OpenDesire (many, many different revisions) and Oxygen. Both by AdamG, but i doubt it makes a difference.
I go into the wireless setting and enable USB tehtering. I disconnect my wireless, plug it into my computer, and get no IP so i cannot browse anything.
I go into the wireless setting and enable wireless tehtering. I disconnect my wireless, connect to the newly discovered AP and get no IP so i cannot browse anything.
Am i missing a step
2 different carries too. Ive tried Rogers and ive tried Telus. No change.
When I was using oxygen I just plugged it in, enabled usb tethering and I got connection.

So whta could it be?
hardware problem?
Radio issue?
Am i just doing it wrong?
EDIT: I just plugged it into my desktop, and it didnt work. They're both running windows 7 if it matters..
EDIT2: the programs for tethering in 2.1 and below worked for me when i was on 2.1..
EDIT3: Im posting this while using PDANet...
Alright the problem is with windows 7. My friend used his MBP to tether wirelessly to my phone. No issues
bump
anyone know how to fix it?
bump again...

Not sure if it helps but have you tried installing HTC Sync? I remember vaguely that it is needed for USB tethering for windows.
