New rom on phone - USB connection no longer works

I've successfully installed the Open Desire rom on my HTC Desire, but if I try to plug in my phone to my PC I get a windows noise (asif a USB device is connected), but no access to the actual device (e.g. the drive doesnt appear in my computer).
Any ideas on what to do? It was working fine on the same PC before installing a new rom...
Thanks.

Sounds like the usb brick as mentioned above.
What recovery method did you use? Is your phone seeing the sd card?

I had the same problem, can you install from Market? I fixed the problem by changing the default install location for the apps.

Now I can connect both discdrive mode and htc sync. Latest OTA did this for me.

What ROM you running, that might help ..... maybe turn off ADB , in settings, and check usb storage there ...

no ROM, everything is stock and debugging mode is unchecked as well
when i mannually try to use the USB mass storage from Setting>Wireless>USB utillties and click on Connect Storage to PC it gives me a window saying "ATTENTION: Usb is connected. Remove the cable" when i remove the cable then it tell me to Connect the USB cable

Same thing happens to me.
My solution is to plug my/your phone to the computer and open the notifications. Click/press on the usb is connected notification and you can enter storage mode directly without hassle.

When I had this problem, I just needed to fix permissions in recovery. Is the phone rooted? Did you recently buy it new or used?

Solution is simple I suppose.
Disconnect the cable.
Go to settings from where USB connection can be enabled.
Click that option and it will ask you to connect the cable.
Only then connect it. That should be work.

For USB Storage mode:
1. Disconnect
2. Settings->Wireless and network->USB utilities
3. Click button: Connect storage to PC
4. Plug in USB Cable
I hope it helps.

Do you mean adb connection or usb mass storage one?
I don't know whether you've checked this yet, but try this:
if you mean the adb, on the home screen, press: menu>setting>applications>development>check on usb debugging
if it is usb storage, refer to what mayerkemp said
or if you can see usb logo on notification bar, slide it down and tap connect storage to pc

Thanks guys,
Problem is that when I click on connect storage it either says "connect the cable to use mass storage" or if the cable is connected it says "USB is connected. Remove the cable."
Any thoughts?

Hi guy's, so I've reinstalled a backed up rom and it's fine now.

Just always check development mode on application setting, then u can change to usb storage with tap usb connected from expanded status bar, that's what I do on DXLM3
Sorry for my bad english

[Q] Question about Mounting HOX

Hi guys idk if this is common thing(issue) but everytime i connect my HOX to my computer mounts 2 units. 1 as MTP device(25.2 GB) and 1 as Mass Storage(16 MB) and everytime it asks if i want to format the Mass storage drive. Anyone with a hint what it is wrong with my device? I'm on ARHD 19.2 nad Kozmik 008 if that matters. Thanks in advance.

Have you had this issue with other ROMs?
Try to enable/disable debugging
Delete any drivers that's related to your device and install them again.

If I disable usb debugging the pc shows the mtp device only.

It's down to 2 possibilities now, it's either you PC fault, or the ROM's
to make sure, you need to get access to another PC , enable usb debugging back and connect your device to the other PC and see what happens
depending on the result , we'll work from there
and i'll need some more info about your PC (Windows/Linux?) and what edition

To change modes plug the usb cable from phone to computer and pull the pulldown down
and you will see "connected as a media device" click on it and will be able to change it to
"Camera PTP" or "Media Device MTP". (Media device PTP is mass storage mode)
Be sure that you have the latest samsung usb drivers installed in your computer.
If you don't have it installed or if you don't see the options then that means that
either the usb drivers are not installed or the usb cable or the usb port is not
functioning properly.
Good luck!

Doing that makes it show up as a camera. Which is fine I guess, but probably just for applications on the computer that don't know how to read MTP. Neither is actually USB Mass Storage though.
Either will let you copy files to/from the device in Windows. OSX seems to need MTP and the little application Google makes available.
When people ask about UMS, they usually want to connect to something that's not a computer, like a car radio that can play music/video from a flash stick. Those devices won't support MTP/PTP. I am not aware of any way to get normal UMS to work on a Note3. Last I heard, people determined that a kernel mod needed to happen, and even if that does, the device might get angry if you take its storage away as it won't expect that. The external could probably be done without too much hassle, but the internal would be weird. And probably won't work anyway as it's an ext4 format, so only Linux devices could mount it anyway.
