[Q] Connected to PC - charging only - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. i recently noticed that when i connect my desire to pc it's not coming up with any removable disk on pc, i've installed htc sync, on my phone i tried connecting it with 3 different roms, none worked, when i put card in dad's phone, pc find it. any solutions?

Which Rom are you using? On most roms, there is a storage option in the notification area which you can select.

atm i've got runnemede aio 6.0.4 but as i stated, it also didnt came up with notifications in mildwild rom and insertcoin rom

It might just be a bad usb cable. When you plug the phone to the computer, do you hear the common sound you hear when you plug a device to the usb port? It's possible that the data wires of the usb cable is broken while the wires for the power is still okay that's why it's charging and not detecting it's plugged in to a computer. Try to test it with a different cable.
If it's the same result then you can consider checking the phone and the computer ports.

Did you check Menu>Settings>Connect to PC>Connection Type ?

USB Cable, USB Port on PC or Phone.
Try connecting to another computer, that way you eliminate the phone.
Then try another cable.
If that doesn't work my guess the USB Port on the phone is dead. Flashing a new O/S may fix it, but I doubt it.

tried 2 diff nokia microusb cables, both charged only and for nokia phone (6500s) mass storage worked, damn i hope its not phone

Touch HD USB problem.

Hi all. Since yesterday I have a problem with my blackstone not being recognized through the usb cable. The computer doesn't see that my phone is connected. The only thing is that my battery is being charged, so I guess the usb connector on the phone itself is okay.
Also, when I go to the bootloader mode, the usb connection is not recognized. I tried several cables and several pc's/notebooks. Problem remains the same in all circumstances.
What could be wrong, because it worked perfectly before. Phone has not had waterdamage or whatsoever.

I experience this problem occasionally and solved it by rebooting my PC. Seems the problem is with Active Sync rather than the phone. Worth a try if you haven't already done so.
Of course I tried that. Several cables, but like I said. When you go into bootloader mode, and connect the usb cable, it normally should say usb, but it remains at serial. So I'm concluding that it's not a windows mobile problem.

OK, I understand your problem a little better. You must ensure that your phone has synched with your PC before entering bootloader. Also remember if you are trying to flash your ROM using USPL, you must first uncheck the "Allow USB connections" in Connection Settings on Active Sync (in fact, it is possible you did this before but forgot to re-enable it).
Hope this helps.
Okay, fair enough. But the problem is that the phone isn't recognized when put on usb, while the proper option is selected. When I got my phone, I HSPL'd it, so I don't need USPL.
My idea is that the usb connector on the circuitboard of the phone is defective. As I understand from a mechanic, that usb connector has a total of 10 pins for getting 'juice' for the battery and for usb connection. Could be that the pins for usb connection are damaged in some way. That could explain why charging the phone through usb still works. So I'm dealing with a hardware problem I think.

[Q] Evo usb not recognized AT ALL

Whenever I plug my phone into my computer now all it does it show the little charging light in the top left corner of the EVO, and not the notification asking to turn on usb storage in the pull down menu, or give any errors, and nothing pops up on the computer.
Recently, I started to have usb problems where the notification on the phone was flashing on and off and the usb connected sound on the computer kept going off (like the phone was connecting and disconnecting to the usb port on the computer every second), but I thought this was a cable problem and since I didn't need usb at that moment, I brushed it off.
I'm pretty sure my phone still charges fine because the light goes on. No, It isn't a problem with the cables or the computers because i've tried multiple cables and computers. I don't understand what the problem is because my charging still works fine and I don't get error messages, it's just that usb won't connect at all anymore

If that doesn't work, you may have a hardware defect, and it'd be best to unroot and take it to sprint.

Youve tried two different power sources, what about a different USB cable? Had that issue before where the cable was bad and only noticed when other USB devices werent connecting through it..or intermittently.
yes i tried different usb cables, different power outlets and different computer's.
also i noticed that when its actually charging on the PC, i don't get the small usb icon on the notification to copy files from pc .. i need to power off/on the phone.
ever happened to anyone ?

Ive never read that here, i have a Telus one also and it shows up right away. The odd time ive noticed that ill hear the usb unplug/replug sound from my pc and the phone will show the USB Connected on the status bar as though it somehow reset its connection. But never had an issue where it stays disconnected.
I also only got that issue with certain roms, i dont remember which though. I ran painlessly on Juggernaut for a while and right now im on Touchless and its also perfect.
I am running on Juggernaut, i recently did a clean install (wipe data .. everything) i was having few issues, i though maybe that would fix the issue.
the phone at times thinks that i have plugged the charger in to charge
and u see the battery icon changing. weird...
Have you tried charging with the phone powered down?

Help to fix charging and usb connection issue

Hello dear.
I have a problem with my p601,
I cant connected my tablet to PC.
When i connected, just charging and no any connection.. In odin or storage not show a device, adb not connected...
And when i used a charger show an red stroke on battery icon. And charging is very slowly, during night only 50%.
I'm root my device, install twrp, and install cyanogenmod, but nothing change.
Now whats your idea? How i can fix this issue?
This may be an obvious question but have you tried a different cable or charger? I always found running on stock ROM that charging was an issue unless I powered it down. I have used a 12W Crapple charger and that seems to work ok but charging has never been an endearing part of the this tab.
So in Odin you it doesn't work? Could you have some dirt or contaminants in the USB port, start with the obvious, change the cable, use a different usb on the pc or try another pc altogether.
I had same problem, i noticed that the usb port was loosen little bit, i had to open the tablet apply small pressure with plier to afjust the usb port,,,, and now it's perfect.

Fastboot reboots immediately when connected over USB

So I was going to unlock my boot loader and do all the fun rooting things now that Magisk is working, and when I got to the point of entering fastboot to run the necessary commands, it would just reboot as soon as I entered fastboot mode. To be clear, I turned off my phone, waited a bit, power+vol down, saw the fastboot screen for <1 second, then it started booting.
So I tried unplugging from USB, and could get into fastboot fine, and stay in it as long as I wanted selecting whatever options I wanted, then, as soon as I connected the USB cable (that came with the phone), it would reboot.
So I did a factory reset, didn't set up a pin, fingerprint or anything similar, same thing, about a half second of the fastboot screen, then a boot screen.
I tried booting into fastboot with adb, same thing.
I'm not sure what is happening here, and I've never had this kind of problem before. Anyone have any advice?
I would try using a different cable, and/or a different USB port. I've seen and experienced it being very picky.
My new rig I built has us 3.0 on the front and 2.0 in the back, my pixel absolutely hates being plugged into the 3.0 port, when I plug it in, it does nothing but spam connection/disconnection, once I plugged it into a 2.0 port it works fine
If you are using any kind of hub or extension cord remove them and plug in directly to the PC. I had this problem on my 1st 2XL but so far the 2nd hasn't given me a problem. I did move my PC closer to my desk to eliminate any extensions I had.
EDIT: I'm using my old USB cord from my Pixel 1 plugged into my USB 3.1 port.
Ah, I only have one USC C cable and one USB C port. I'll grab a USB A to C cable after work. Will update in about 9 hours.
Thanks!
USB A to USB C cable did it. Thanks for the help!
