Hello,
i've got a problem like the title says. Everytime i connect my phone to the computer via usb, i get the message the device wasnt recognized by the computer. i tried everything i know, another usbport. etc. i want to install a new radio, but without connecting to the computer it isnt possible, because i dont have the usb debugging active.
i hope someone has an idea what i can do. i have rcmix 6.1.0.1 installed.
Are you using Windoze?
If you are unfortunate enough to be doing so then you might need to reinstall HTC Sync program (sometimes it works better if you completely uninstall it first including manually removing any left over folders and files in the application data folder.
thanks for the quick answer.
i tried it, but it didnt help. where is this application data folder? do you mean on the computer? i found after uninstalling no more folders from htc.
and yes i use windows home premium 64bit.
got another idea? now it says also the device does not function properly. i hope that nothing on the device is broken.

yes he is talking about your computer... if in the "program files" you hasn´t anythink about HTC SYNC,, ALL IS OK...
but enssure that in the configuration panel-system-dispositive administrator you hasn´t any drive installed for your android device... if you have installed it, erase or uninstall it before re-install htc sync or the htc drivers....then you can re-install and reboot windoux...
and hey buddy!I recommend to you to consider to pass to linux, you will not have this type of mistakes... LOL
UBUNTU is great!
I'm afraid I don't know much about Windoze but memory serving appication data is a hidden folder so you will need to change it to view them and is in the Documents and Settings / [Your username] directory.
Device not function is just a default Windoze error when it can't install something, ignore it, your phone is fine.
If you have reinstalled HTC Sync, try a USB port on the opposite side of the PC. So if you trying ones next to each other on the front, try ones on the back (they use different headers on the motherboard).
If that doesn't work then I'm afraid I probably won't be of much more use, sorry.

The use of linux is good to understand better android OS you don´t believe?
you said it.... EVERYTHING WORKS
thanks guys for your help, but although i followed your advices, except the one to switch to linux ;-), it hasnt got better yet. the problem is still exsisting and i dont know what else i can do.
anyone got an idea how to install radio without having usb debugging and the drivers from the computer?
Hi!
I've got the same problem with 2 different PCs, one with Win7 64-bit, the other with Win XP PRO.
Other devices work fine with the same USB ports, so i doubt it's windows or the PC...

you can´t flash any radio if your phone is not recognized
well.. Let's continue with the problem in question...
1.At some time could you have connected it?with the stock rom maybe?
2.have you tried to swich on mass storage usb mode?what´s the result?
3.when you tries to swich the phone for flash some radio you enables "usb debug"
and "only chargue"?
its a weird problem
Hey man, I've had the same problem with my old Desire (normal). Which was actually broken.. Went back to the store twice and it was sent to htc twice. But that one wasn't rooted tho. But in the end, the sensors were broken & something inside the phone that didn't recon the pc. But also try a full wipe, which helped temporarily for me.
1. yes i functioned, not only with stock rom, but also with the next few custom roms. but then 2 weeks ago the problem occured and i dont know why. before i used custom roms for months.
2. it also doesnt recognize the mass storage anymore, i dont see the memorycard as a storage device in explorer.
3. yes i turned usb debugging on and connected charging only, i flashed radios before. but the problem with the actual is, that my signalstrength is weak and so i wanted to flash the recommended for this rom, and so i recognized there is something wrong, cause my problem here occured.
normally i sync with myphoneexplorer so i didnt realize that mass storage didnt function anymore.
and because earlier i got no problems, i think more and more, that something on the phone went wrong.
maybe it helps if i go back to stockrom and undo all changes i made, to start all over again?
again thanks mate for your effort to help me out

you´re welcome companion
i reded in a spanish forum ( www.htcmania.es ) about your problem and there´s people that had the same problem with a S.GALAXY S & desire HD...
someone was solved it fullwiping and formating (in the paragraph of mounts & storage into CWM) and flashing another ROM... then they formatted their sd card with a card reader OF THE PC... later they was formatted the sd card from the pc and the problem was disapeared successfully...
BUT if it persists i think that you should (mi suggestion) send your machine to the thecnical service....
ok, will try this today evening when i'm home. if this doesnt work i will reset it in the orginial state and send it to the technical support. i will leave a comment if i was successful, perhaps this will help others with the same problem.

oops!!don't say anything LOL! you lose warranty...unroot and disable custom recovery...of your phone flashing an official ruu and then do S-OFF... ITS sufficient..
edit: sorry FOR your DHD
Sent from my Nokia 3210 running the worst symbian using the XDA app powered by LOL
hi mate, i also had the same problem, i connected my dhd to the back usb port of my pc and it was ok. and i also got this problem when i was using a non genuine htc usb cable.
weird!!! can it be possible?
EDIT:I´M using a NOKIA N97 genuine cable and works perfect... LOL
Hi,newbie here.My device isn't rooted.Yesterday, I downloaded Marshmallow update 6.0.1.At 43%,I started the update.I thought it will complete in that.you know,the logo and all came.I watched it updating till 85% then got on with my work.Then,I felt a vibration.I saw it rebooting and then it showed samsung logo in all white.It wouldn't move forwards after that.I heard 3 vibrations periodically.The 1st one...4 sec gap...and then the 2nd & 3rd vibrations in quick succession.And it would go on infinitely until the battery discharged.I plugged it in the wall charger and then I noticed the charging has also become very slow.I left it for charging at 6 AM and till now(12:14pm),its just 58%.I read in a thread about force restrat and quickly going into recovery mode.I wiped the cache partition hoping it would solve the problem but it didn't. I couldn't understand the rest of the part,so I didn't try.I selected power off option and right now it is charging.I have important data stored on the internal storage so I fear doing a factory reset.I also have fingerprint lock on it so I have no idea how to connect to PC and use.I got no idea about flashing roms.Is there any possible way to revert back to lollipop? I just want my data before I do something.Please help.Also,I had some pics(only pics) in the private mode.I also need to recover that.
Yea your going to have to flash a stock image via Odin.
Your going to have to do some reading on XDA, no way round it, there is no quick fix with a few buttons lol.
Here is the general flow, read on XDA to fill in your gapps.
1. Find load Samsung USB drivers
2. Find latest version of ODIN, Samsung flashing tool
3. Find and download stock image suitable for your version / country
4. Flash it
like I said read, read, and read again, all the info you need is here in good detail.
See,that is the problem.As I mentioned in the post,I have no idea what uou just said.I have only the slightest idea about yhus stuff.As I don't want to mess with my data,I am asking for a specific solution to this problemAny help would be greatly appreciated.

If you don't get it use Google to help.
Dude, you need to learn what all this stuff means , or pay someone to do it for you, simple as that.
Relax about your data, its still there. It can be recovered via adb , or even easier flash twrp recovery and use the inbuilt file manager and copy it to USB or SD card.
But before you do a shed load of study any further advice is useless, hows your PC skills?

Nope best get one for t705, but while you are here I would flash twrp custom recovery here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2817100
That recovery has a file manager in it, you can copy files around before you ever get to booting android, which is exactly what you need for your data.
You seem to be progressing quite fine, another day or so an you will have the experience necessary, you put yourself down on the first post, there is nothing wrong with your technical skills, your obviously a bright chap.
I'm not at all sure of private mode, have zero clue what it is or how it works, but I'm confident it can be cracked somehow. After all most other parts of Samsung have been cracked including fingerprint/pin lock.
But if you first flash twrp and see if you can data off that way, then if that fails we can have a go at cracking Samsung propper.
Yes tab is fine, data is fine, both will be back with a little time and effort.

So,basically..
1. I need to download twrp recovery on my pc.(Also,I don't think i had usb debugging enabled(i read that somewhere that it is needed to install twrp,i don't know)So,is that a issue or is it safe to proceed without it being enabled?)
2.Connect the tab to pc.
3.Download it to the tab via odin mode/flash it with sd card.
4.Take back up(one silly question: where will the back up get stored)(another one,just need to confirm: i will install twrp via odin mode and then boot into recovery mode and take back up,right?).
5.Then,Install stock rom via sd card(is that correct?)
And Then what?Am I good to go? Tab will just switch on then and I will have my data?help me here please.

1. Nope do not need adb enabled etc, your fine there
2. yep
3. Yep, just make sure you have appropriate Samsung USB drivers installed, and most recent version of Odin would be nice, you flash it by selecting file on PC which is then flashed to device, no SD card used.
4 yep, In twrp you have choice of where to put backup, chose extrenal SD card and your good to go.
4.1 When in twrp, go to advanced>file manager, navigate to your internal storage, then you can copy your data directly to SD card.
STOP HERE.
When you have successfully flashed twrp. Stop, at this point we have all the tools you need installed to start hunting for your data, and proberly repair your current installation. If your data is encrypted somewhere we definitely need to repair the boot, that's going to be easiest method.
Once we have the data, then yes flash a standard image.

Do i need to flash twrp recovery specific for my device or is it same for everyone?If it is specific,where can I get one? And is it necessary for my device to be rooted in order to install twrp recovery? And by back up,will I be able to replicate my entire data including app data,files,documents,etc. which was stored before it went into bootloop or will twrp help me recover only selective stuff?
Yes you need t705 twrp https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2817100
Nope do not need root.
From twrp you can do anything you need, full backup, selective, Fix your current system, flash a new one without overwriting your data pretty much anything.
What avenue we need to take depends totally what your data is and where it was stored, the answers in the detail, if its sensitive you can pm me.
But first be VERY CONFIDENT you have read everything you can get about ODIN and flashing twrp. I can guide you but your there not me, its up to you to know what you are doing. Just read a bit more, I think another day or so of intensive reading and you will be there. As I keep saying your not stupid just focus, there is frigg all difference between you and an android developer, they have just obsessively read up on the subject, you have not lol

Data mostly consists of some docs and rest are valuable photos.I am just worried about the data stored on private mode(just photos).whether I will be able to recover it or not.So,I really need an expert's way to get it done.I have been reading a lot and I think I am ready.

Dude if I was there would do it for you lol, yes sure will help you all the way.
Now your up to speed, I will write you a detailed guide to get your data, with as many screenshots as can take, I'm 90% sure your data is not encrypted, hence is somewhere on the tab in plain format.
If you don't need the data for exams, drop this for a couple of days and concentrate on what's left of exams. I will have your detailed guide finished when you do.

Just did a Google on private mode, the files under private mode ARE encrypted, that means although you can recover them you can't read them.
If we repair the tab they SHOULD. Be accessible ( once back in private mode) , but zero guarantees.
The other files, no problem.

You seem to be blowing this out of proportion and making it more complicated than it actually is.
The first thing you should do is simply install the stock firmware via odin. There are literally hundreds of in depth guides how to do this. Even the websites you download the software from usually have a guide.
I suggest you install the same android version you originally had as this is safest. If that doesn't boot then move on to the Marshmallow update.
Dont expect instant boot after installing either as the update can take some time to boot.
If worse comes to worse then there is always the option of installing Twrp. However there should be no reason your device shouldn't boot after installing the stock firmware unless the device has had a hardware failure.
Your private folder files should also be accessible via Twrp. They aren't encrypted in my experience and I have accessed files in the private folder just fine.

This is TOTAL NOOB guide to flash TWRP , with shed load of screen shots, if you dont get it from this then hey
Although its also for Fenris users it should suit you just fine.
But this is just for flashing TWRP on a T705, its not covering flashing a standard image.
I would listen to Ashyx , that guy has forgotten more about the tab s than i will ever learn lol
