*Solved* Won't connect to pc.

Hey, well i've had my evo for awhile now, up until about a month ago, it would connect to the computer with no problem. Now when i plug it up it just charges, the usb icon doesn't pop up in the corner. In the settings connect to pc, Ask me is check and default is disk drive, and i've tryed charge only as well. I have no clue why it stopped connecting to the computer and just charges. Any suggestions or thoughts?
****SOLVED****

Sounds like a driver issue.
Uninstall them and reinstall them.

Will try, thanked anyway.

It's very likely considering that the port obviously works.

Yeah, I agree. I just have one problem I don't wanna see like a little 10 year old annoying kid. But I just got into the rooting community and such. My phone is unrooted at the moment so do you have any idea where I could get these drivers?

http://www6.sprint.com/downloads/htc/executables/htcsync2.0.35.exe should work.
More updated ones would be here:

Thanks again.
Edit: Even being hooked up to HTC Sync it won't recognize it's hooked up to a computer. Just charging i've tried multiple computers as well. I plug it up put default on HTC Sync and HTC Sync still says, connect device.. so frustrating.

WiFi file explorer won't fix your problem but will let you transfer files back and forth over WiFi. My Ian port has been messed up for awhile this has been my fix.
Swyped from my Orange Peeled Synergist EVO

I have been experiencing this very issue for almost a month now. Hard, reset, reinstalled drivers, done it all but to no avail. (wife's Evo connects with ease; Win7 sp1)
Been thinking that the usb por is broken - but I can still charge. I can adb and transfer over wi-fi. Only thing wish I could do wirelessly was qpst.
Anyway, I am happy just as long as I can charge the evo. If that changes, then I will get a repair done for $40.
Hope this really isn't the case.

Most likely is a busted usb port, same thing happened to one of the evo's I worked with. Charging fine but will not get discovered by any computers(tried multiple computers with multiple usb cables), but when pushing the cable into the port all my force windows recognized the phone but gave an error for "unknown device", had to actually get another usb port and repair it myself (better than paying $100), drivers definitely not the case here

Thanks everyone! Just gonna go pay 100$ for a new one. I was really wanting to root so if I can't without it being hooked to a computer might as well get a new one.

Why would you pay $100?
If you pay the $8 take it to the Sprint store and they'll look at it.
The $100 is for physical/water damage or lost/stolen phone.

Reboot your phone and go to running services and make sure calendar sync is still running. I don't know why but if you stop that from running it won't connect to your P.C.

I have something running called calendar, but can't find calendar sync? Same thing or?

They probably start with a refurb, and if none are in stock, they'll order you a new one.

epic 4g posible perma brick?

okay so i one click rooted flashed acs ics 5.5 samuria kernal 3.0.1 and eco5 to eg22 or whatever it is i forget but i did that BRICK went t odin for help got the pit file and the eco5 tar strted odin everything went fine til it got to factoryfs.rfs it hung for a few like normal and then i looked at my phone and the screen just changed to this random solid color each and every tie its a different color what do it do!!!??? plz reply emeidiatly

what usb data cable are you using? not the one it came with right? did you pull the battery out and leave it off for a few minutes? taking the battery off sometimes helps. completely clears everything.

Color implies disconnection from process. If you are using the stock cable I would get a new one...many have issues with it

Actual phone. Saw green the other day. The link I gave says it can be any color. In my case odin did not flinch and hung at my usual spot.

A different one the the one you have been using to start with. I have personally had no issues in the short time prior to losing mine but there are enough posts on here to show that those cables have been a source of many flashers whoas.
Plus it has to be the thinest damn usb cable I have ever touched.

+1 seems like their cables are the only good thing they have now. I had someone root my phone and he had the same issue with different color screens took him three days to finally get it thru. Took me 3 minutes to return to stock and reroot

Anyway to convert mtd to bml without odin

Trying to get back to stock before taking my epic in to sprint. Here's what's up.
I got a refurbished epic 4g when my screen cracked. It worked well at first flashed over to cm9 and atarashi kernel. Since then my usb port started acting up sometimes it thinks its charging constantly other times never says it charging. Booting into download mode and plugging in to the computer it doesn't connect. And yes I am using a non stock cable (blackberry cable).
I've also tried to restore to a backup in case it was the new kernel version still doesn't work.

Try reinstalling your drivers, use different ports, and different cables. I had to do the same thing yesterday when my screen had water damage. They probably wont notice if you take it in and i think they wipe anyway, but keep trying to odin just in case. Maybe try heimdall too.

Flash the eco5 rerfs rom and it will make you semi-soft bricked and then they won't be able to get to recovery or anything and they will end up fixing the usb and reflashing stock and when they ask you stuff just play dumb

If you can't get it working flash the FC09 stock deodexed MTD ROM here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580931
There are instructions at the bottom of the OP to make it look stock enough to fool most Sprint techs. Marcusant has a kernel for it that has the stock numbers in the version that shows up on settings. PM him or me if you need that.

Alright I'll try that hopefully they don't notice. If they do well hopefully they don't say anything cause its a hardware issue obviously. Just a poorly refurbished phone.

Unfortunately bml is not open source, which makes a cwm conversion back to it impossible or hard enough that its not in the best interest of our developers to do.

kris, most likely you have a dirty usb port, take a qtip, dip it into alcohol and gently clean the port and then use a hair dryer for a few secs and then give it a try.

Let me know if you fool the sprint employee.
I am in the exact same boat right now.

I don't think they'd notice. They either don't know or don't care and if the service center is in the back, they probably won't even look at it before they reset.

Great...go ahead and show him what a bunch of pricks we are here...seriously...its like you people get off by talking **** behind a screen...
Lots of people (including me) buy used phones because they are not up for an upgrade and dont want to pay the ridiculous full price...I fail to see WTF is wrong with that...I do agree that u should make sure its fully funtional before buying it but that aint the way of telling them that
....sorry....it just pisses me off seeing that every new person looking for help here gets talked **** to by the 3rd post.

it should still be under manufacturer's warranty and maybe t-mobile's if it somehow transferred.. sometimes it doesn't.

haha thanks everyone and no they didnt offend me at all cause im not a noob but im also not a developer, i just cant get my phone into download mode because of the usb port malfunction i actually didnt know it was bad at the the time only because it still charged and what not but i traded an HD2 for it and was done messing with it, i wanted something new and its going to be new to me also installing this usb port haha so wish me luck i also bought one of those usb jigs off ebay to hopefully get me into download mode, everytime i use my cable it goes straight into stock recovery if it wasnt for that i would be flashing away! ive tried everything getting it into DL mode, also ive tried getting it warrantied but tmboile says ive had too many exchanges ha so im SOL on that one, i had the g2x before the hd2 and suppovsevly according to them its my fault they kept sending me POS phones esp since the g2x has been EOLed i mean cmon. they knew that phone had nothing but problems why still send it to people

No problem, also welcome to the community. Hope you are able to fix that usb.
One last thing though, now don't quote me on this, but I remember reading that using the usb cord from a g2x or I think any lg phone would get you into download mode. Not exactly sure how it worked, but I think you turned off the phone, connected the usb to the phone, then to the computer. And then power on the phone and it would take you to dl mode. Not 100% sure but you might want to look into that

To the OP, best of luck and let us know how it goes. There are DIY tutorials a well for usb port repairs.
And as for buying used phones, we must be careful. But otherwise, I say go for it. My SGS2 was purchased used via Craigslist and it's been running great with zero problems. I suggest everyone considering a used purchase visit the xda forum associated with the phone and see what kinds of problems/defects have been common with the phone so you will know what things to look for when you make the buy.
