Drivers?? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an Incredible that is stuck on the HTC incredible screen. I can get to hboot with the following info:
INCREDIBLEC XC SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.92.0000
MICROP-0417

I have tried doing the PM31IMG.zip of both the Gingerbread and Froyo images, I have tried to reload hboot-92 using the same format, all tries have ended up with a message that says "no image or wrong image".
I am now trying to do a RUU, but windows does not recognize the phone. When you plug the phone in, it recognizes it as Android 1.0 but it cannot find a valid driver. I installed HTC sync from HTC's website and I tell it to use windows update, but neither of those finds a valid driver. I have tried the above method on Windows XP SP2, Windows 7 32bit, and Windows 7 64bit with the same outcome.
Any suggestions on either a valid driver or anything else to try to get a working phone?
Thanks.
*edit* I also have tried doing a factory reset from hboot, that does not help either.....

I just went thru this process this morning using ruu from:
http://pvillecomp.com/wp/wp-content...15.10.07.07_NV_1.70_release_210643_signed.exe
you may try power phone on while connected or before connected to computer. I had same recognition problem and one of these options solved issue.

Thanks.
But a new issue arrived today. Shortly after I posted, I decided to try different micro sd cards and I found one that when I put the img file on it, it actually recognized the image. Which I thought made me in the clear, I used the gingerbread image from the pvillecomp.com site. When it loaded the image and installed it the radio failed but everything else passed, then it rebooted when it was done, except it didn't really reboot it shut down and now does nothing. Can't power up, can't go into hboot, and it doesn't even show it is charging or it recognizes the usb when plugged in.

[Q] USB connection error

Hi, today a have tried to root my htc desire using revoked 2 method. I was unable to install usb drivers. And now i cant even mount desire as hard drive. Computer still reports that device is unknown. I tried different usb ports, 2 different cabels, windows xp and seven. Before everything worked fine. Do you thing it is possible, that i damaged phone, when i plug it out just disconnecting cable?
Which version of unrEVOked did you try? I seems like a driver issue as you have to install the modified Hboot drivers for unrEVOked in a certain way before unrEVOked will work. If you attempted root with unrEVOked 3.21, did you follow the steps mentioned in thi thread?:

I used this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044
and I stuck at 3. point... On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
and after that i am unable to connect desire to pc... no way...seems like something happend with usb driver in phone or i dont know...just i ve tried 3 computers for now and every reports same when I connect usb, that device is unknown
What Hboot do you have?

Ok, thank you for that info.
To tell you the truth, with unrEVOked 3.21, you must install the modified HBOOT drivers for it to work, otherwise it will not work at all.
Please try following this guide as it is definately requied. I asked you above if you had tried going through it, you mentioned that you had only tried using the guide in the first link, but you definately need to have the modified HBOOT drivers installed to proceed.
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
Try what is suggested and let me know if you can proceed past step three after configuring the HBOOT drivers first, as it is a must.

Hmm... yes i see what you mean. Unrevoked is fussy regarding drivers. Try the following:
1) Uninstall HTC Sync completely, the HTC Driver Setup, and HTC BMP Driver if present.
2) Reboot and reinstall the HTC Sync software (latest version).
3) Now uninstall HTC Sync Alone. Keep other two (HTC Driver Setup and HTC BMP Driver) installed.
4) Reboot your PC again.
Note: do not connect phone to PC at all and make sure the phone is switched off.
5) Switch your phone to the Bootloader screen. Connect the phone via USB and it should show Fastboot USB.
6) Windows will show the device detection dialog box - at this point, stop Windows from getting the driver from Windows Update, and manually choose the location of the driver as the folder where Unrevoked driver is present.
7) After this is done, diconnect phone again.
8) Go through the unrEVOked guide and connect the phone when advised to.
If this fails, then try unrEVOked 3.22 (in my sig below) and see how that goes and although you have mentioned that you have tried 3 different PC's, you may have to consider trying it on a different OS platform, such as Linux.

Try downloading the Android SDK: installer_r08-windows.exe
Follow the steps in this video to hopefully get the appropriate USB drivers - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N66J6UiN5Pg&feature=player_embedded
EDIT:
With the phone connected, try the following afterwards:
Check to make sure that you have USB Debugging enabled on your phone.
In Device Manager, right-click your Unknown Android device and select 'Update Driver Software'. Browse to the folder (extract the zip to the Desktop) i have attached below and see if it installs them.

OK, i will try the thing with sdk..i am downloading files right now, but that makes no sense to download any other windows drivers. I think the problem is inside of the phone, because it represents itself like unknown device to any computer with any drivers...if there is a way to restore flash memory or something...well looks like i will have to wait one month for reclamation...how this could happen my god

I agree... it is clearly an HBOOT driver issue or the phone... Windows (PC host) drivers are seperate. I was just running out of ideas really
The only definate way of knowing if it is the device that is causing this issue is if you were to try it on a non-Windows related OS, like Linux and maybe it would work for you using an Ubuntu Live CD.

Yes, because it is not as fussy with drivers as Windows is - with Windows, they have to be properly removed from its cache. With Linux, the phone should be detected ok (unless the phone is at fault).
Here is a simple guide that you can follow:

Keep those fingers crossed

So, linux didnt work either, system didnt even recognize that anything was plug in. Even crossed fingers dident help Well only last thing I have to ask, if there is any possibility to recover hboot, restore it somehow. Forexample through recovery menu in hboot loader and some kind of .zip file, that i will put to SD card. If not, well I will have to step out to that freezing weather and walk to orange store for reclamation, which I hope would be positive for me, but something telling me it surely will.
I found something about usb unbrick here on xda forum, but is only for root phones
well i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9056719&postcount=15 i think it could work, just i dont know a way how to discover my CID number..to modify mtd0.img file
ok, i did everything step by step using rageagainstthecage tutorial, but nothing happend at all.
If anyone could help...
Are you able to get into Fastboot?
I suppose running your stock RUU in Hboot won't make a difference then... how about trying the PB99IMG method, which involves renaming the extracted rom.zip file to PB99IMG.zip from your stock RUU, placing this to the root of your SD card and then letting it run from Fastboot mode. This would restore your stock Hboot. You could also try AlphaRev's modified 0.93 HBOOT with S-OFF?

HTC Desire CDMA completely formatted, won't install RUU / doesn't show in ADB devices

[solved using the following RUU: http://goo-inside.me/bravoc/ruu/RUU...Radio_2.15.00.11.16_release_168495_signed.exe + the factory Google SDK driver. I solemnly ask of any CDMA Desire user to please download and save in a safe place this RUU]
Guys,
I completely formatted my CDMA Desire (don't ask) and now I'm on the

FASTBOOT USB
...screen. Formatted everything there was to format in Clockworkmod recovery options: sdcard, boot, sd-ext, system, etc.
None of the 3 RUU's for the CDMA Desire work. All give me the Error 130 - Model ID incorrect, use a correct RUU error (I've previously succesfully used RUU's, but I have gotten this before.)
I used to have Oxygen's Gingerbread ROM in there.
ADB devices shows nothing. I have Windows XP. In Control Panel, I got Android USB Devices - My HTC on there, says working properly.
Tried to push recovery using fastboot commands, says Failed every time.
Changed USB ports, I guess I'll keep changing, as that's been the trick from time to time...
Any ideas? Been at least two hours searching and trying, would love some input...

[Q] HTC Desire - need to know if USB completely broken?

Hi, I'm stuck in a quandary with my HTC desire
I believe i have the USB BRICK issue, i cannot get the phone recognised in any PC, have used official HTC cable and other and another PC, all work with my other android phone but not this one. I cannot get into ADB or FASTBOOT via cable not even if i boot into the bootloader. I get nothing
I can't use fastboot commands or ADB via windows CMD prompt but i can adb via wireless, sadly that does not help with tools like 'revolutionary' or 'fastboot' commands.
I successfully managed to create a goldcard and flash a stock WWE RUU, which went well, and the phone went back to stock but i only get 'USB DEBUGGING' symbol pop up on the phone side when i plug the cable in, nothing in device manager, no option to install any drivers, i checked it wasn't set to charge only in 'settings' and usb dubugging is checked.
Phone will charge on the official HTC cable.
I still a noob so if i have missed something or have quoted any of the above incorrect then i hope you understand.
I think I'm missing something so simple.
Could i kindly ask if anyone could talk me through any terminal emulator methods i could use from within the phone to help solve this problem.
I do not get any change in device manager when the phone is plugged in and have tried front and back ports, there is no yellow triangle etc in device manager indicating a driver issue and i also did a fresh install of windows 7 and new htc install. (Win XP gave the same results)
I even checked the usb port on the pcb and it is in good condition, nothing jammed in there, no broken / damaged pins and the solder points are all good.
Many thanks

Possibly bricked Desire Z? Tried a few methods from threads but no luck so far.

Hi,
So on one casual Sunday afternoon after getting burgers with my friend, I went to use my phone to find that the screen was on the fritz:
(had images uploaded onto IMGUR but I can't like to them because it's a new account )
After taking the battery out and restarting it, it went into the htc load screen and then glitched out again.
(had images uploaded onto IMGUR but I can't like to them because it's a new account )
I'm able to get into the HBOOT menu fine and it says the following:

I have tried downloading and loading 4 different PC10IMG.zip(s), none of which have worked for reasons such as:
CID INCORRECT! UPDATE FAILED!
One of the PC10IMG.zip that I used seemed to load fine(?), no error message was shown but it went back to HBOOT after checking the zip and there's no change to the state of the phone.
I installed ADB on my computer and the adb drivers for my phone installed fine but adb devices doesn't detect my phone. I'm unable to get into the usb debugging menu to turn debugging on which I'm guessing doesn't help.
I also installed fastboot which detects the phone fine.
Any suggestions?! Really stuck, pretty sure the phone's not under warranty any more (I've had it for over 2 years and took it apart once to try fix a broken headphone jack, to no success might I add).

Stuck on locked bootloader with s-on

Bought phone off of ebay, the incredible 2 is stuck on bootloader, i cant recover/factory restore, bootloader is locked and s-on, and computer recognizes it as a unknown device, although HTC sync recognizes it as an unknown htc phone. I've tried multiple times to load a few RUU signed stock roms, but nothing happens when its done loading in hboot. Do i have any options left or is it dead?

Just tried it, didn't work. My computer doesn't recognize it, says its an unknown device so i don't think i can do anything with it via usb. Although HTC serial interface pops up sometimes and when i click on it, it gives me driver details:
HTC Serial Interface (COM7)
Driver Provider: HTC corporation
Driver Date: 11/1/2013
Driver Version: 2.0.6.24
so idk if that's anything..

Are you on windows 8.? Win 8 has problems with adb. Try in a win7 machine.
Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
sorry for late reply, no im on windows 7, but Ive tried to plug it into windows 8.1 and windows vista machines and the same thing, none of them recognize it. All i can do is load something onto the sd card for the incredible 2 to read from.
