CM7 rom and all roms made on it as a source allow USB tethering only on Win7, and maybe Vista. For Win XPyou need separate application on your PC and your phone. The most used one is Easy Tather that you can download from Play Store. However, with free version you're not allowed to access https (secured) sites and a few more things.
I found a pro version (some older one but I don't mind) over filestube thar fully works.

Thank u...it solved my prblm. But still Is there anyway to tether directly without the app?

Can not root HTC desire

I am having problems rooting with unrevoked. I try to downgrade the hboot from 0.93 but it won't install the driver onto my phone. Can someone please help? Thanks

Hi Dave,
Have you followed the necessary steps in this guide?
http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install
EDIT: If not already done so, try it without the HTC Sync drivers installed as they cause a conflict with the modified unrEVOked USB drivers.
I've tried but still won't update driver ?? Thanks though

Try the following for me and let me know if it still fails to install the driver or recognise your phone:
Download HTC Sync and install it. Then uninstall HTC Sync as well as any other software that may interfere such as doubletwist. Next, follow this guide to set up the modified HBOOT drivers. Make sure you reboot your PC after doing this.
Next, make sure USB Debugging is on as UnrEVOked needs this to send adb commands to the phone. We also need to enable Unknown Sources so that UnrEVOked can push busybox and SuperUser Permissions apps to the phone.
With your phone go to Settings > Connect to PC > Default connection type > Charge Only and untick Ask Me. Then go to Settings > Applications > Development > Make sure USB Debugging is ticked. Then go back to Applications and make sure Unknown Sources is ticked.
Thanks for your help, I will give it another go over the weekend and let you know. By the way, if it does work, what Rom would you recomend?

There's so many to try i tend to stick with Sense roms, like LeeDroid's roms or NeoPhtye's Sense (AuraxTSense) and Sense HD (ReflexTSense HD) roms. Among many other great roms, Oxygen is nice too. There's also the new alternative MIUI rom, which was developed by Chinese dev's and is completely different to Sense, it's very much like Apple iOS and if that's your kind of thing, you can try that out also. Note: you can also use a different launcher like LauncherPro especially if the default MIUI launcher is not to your liking.
Maybe you should start with something a little easier just so you can properly get to grips with flashing custom roms. Give ReflexTSense v1.4.1 a try (the rom im currently using) as it is based on the Desire HD Sense 2.0 rom. It basically includes updated Sense features and is a super stable and fast rom.
Regards,
Mas.

I had the exact same problem after I got my phone and was afraid of installing HTC sync since it says not to have it running. But I could not get my computer to see my phone. The only way to get it was to use the HTC sync drivers then everything else was a piece of cake!
Thanks mas

No worries bud, just try out a few Sense roms and then you could even try out the newest revolutionary MIUI rom.
Here a link to a video demonstration of the rom running on the Desire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or-9T44Bt7M
Even though i previously mentioned that this rom was developed by Chinese developers, it is now fully translated to 100% English and has extra features available that you can flash, like theming, alternative language packs, etc.
Word of warning: do not flash Rodriguez Styles MIUI rom v2 as it has bugs... i found out the hard way
Hi Gassner1 - What do you mean by use the HTC drivers? I've tried by just uninstalling HTC sync and leaving the drivers and by removing the drivers, Vista will still not update the hboot. I've reinstalled HTC sync and its now a newer version so will try again

Have you tried running it as administrator (if you can, I dont have Vista...)
Yeah running vista as an administrator should have stuck with good old xp

What's your current setup? Are you rooted? What ROM are u running? Kernel? You might need to restore the file u deleted. Also, make sure Samsung drivers are installed on ur laptop, try using a different USB cable, different USB ports, etc.

Try holding the home button and hit task manager, from there try to see if you can get to the market or even a web browser and you need to download a new launcher like launcherpro or another helauncher

You can flash this in clockwork and put it back:

Alright, so I came from my palm centro. There was an app the bypassed having to install the drivers, and showed it as a generic flash drive. Can I do that with android? Installing the samsung drivers is a pain if its not your computer
edit: this should probably go into the apps forum...mods please move
Idk I plugged my phone into my friends comp who uses htc so has no amsungdrivers and the drivers automatically installed...I just wanted a quick charge but I went on a flashing spree when it installed everythingby itself lol

Did you uninstall Kies and the drivers? Kies can be a problem. Also, do you have sdk tools installed? It comes with drivers that work for sure. Let me find the link for drivers for you, it should work. What version of windows are you both running?

Are you guys making sure you are running the application as admin during install? Also make sure you are not sandboxing the install (ie certain virus scans, firewalls, and such). Some of them will sandbox by default which can cause problems.

Can't Connect to ADB

Basically my phone battery is draining like crazy and at times it can be realllyyy laggy, so I want to do a factory reset.
Though, for the many games and stuff I have on here, I want to backup my saves.
Now my phone is not rooted, so I wanted to use the ADB backup method with no root required.
Problem is, adb cannot connect to device for backup.
I have tried installing HTC Sync and HTC Sync Manager, both of which fail installing "HTC Installation Drivers" every time. I've also tried on another laptop.
I've read that this may be due to 64 bit operating systems, but I don't have access to a 32 bit. Any help?

Are you on Jelly bean? if so install Sync manager by just plugging your phone in via usb. If on ICS you will need to intall HTC Sync from the following link for the drivers:
