Desire isn't being found with HTC Sync after flash

Reposting here because I think I initially posted it in the wrong section:
Afternoon all,
I debranded my desire using an RUU flashing it to 1.15.405.4 but now HTC Sync isn't recognizing the phone, it is just coming up as 'Disconnected' yet it is still being recognized as a removable disk when in disk drive mode so it can't be a USB brick.
I can't get ADB working either since the phone isn't being recognized so it isn't installing the required ADB drivers for the phone. I can't go back to my stock firmware either because USB Debugging has to be installed correctly for the RUU to run. I had no problems initially, but after upgrading to this ROM I have seemed to have this problems.
I want to root, but if I can't have access to the ADB a root would not be possible? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Any advice?
Thanks

Unable to Root - USB?

Hi All,
I need help to root and S-OFF my phone. The issue is that my USB charging post does not work (PC and other laptops do not detect it). I have read the Welcome to the HTC Desire (Bravo) Troubleshooting Guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275632) and followed Section 11, at step number 7, I am unable to boot into recovery - all i get is a black screen with a red triangle /!\?
My phone is not recognized by the PC when selecting "Disc Drive", "HTC Sync". Have tried fastboot and I also tried Unrevoked, does not detect phone, have made sure usb debugging is on, any ideas - help and guidance will be appreciated.
Phone Info:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP 031d
RADIO 5.11.05.27
Android Version 2.2
Baseband 32.49.00.32U-5.11.05.27

so your micro usb port on your phone is damaged and cannot transfer data?

that method won't work
"#NOTES: MUST BE BOOTED INTO ROM, ONLY TESTED ON FROYO AND S-OFF"
you can't do step 7, because step 6 will fail. it can't flash a recovery because you are not s-off yet.
have you installed all the relevant drivers for the phone to be detected? install htc sync, then uninstall it but leave the htc drivers.
at a minimum you will need your phone to be recognised by PC. then use revolutionary to s-off. follow the guides.

Hi
Thanks for the reply's. It may be that the USB port is damaged.
I have installed HTC Sync and uninstalled it,not removing the drivers.
Is there a way to root without USB, say using the micro SD card?

not sure to be honest. so when you connect, computer can't see it or connect at all, you can't browse your sd card? it still charges though, so usb port is not completely broken.
have you tried another micro usb cable / laptop with drivers installed / sd card just to be sure?
you will almost certainly need it to be detected by pc to s-off/root etc. the software needs to communicate with the phone. have another look at the guides to see if they have another workaround.

Hi
Used another cable to check computer connection, still no joy, phone not recognized and does not charge phone anymore
I have read the guides, they all want PC access, do just asking if anyone knew of a different solution?

well if your phone doesn't charge anymore you need to look at the bigger picture. you need a working usb port regardless, at a minimum to charge the device! even if you s-off / root etc if it's not going to last one charge!
send for repair if it's under warranty, or find out how much it would cost for someone to repair it. there are probably guides out there to change it yourself if you're adventurous.
once it's repaired and working, you can s-off root etc properly

DesireZ can't connect via USB

Hey guys!
I got my hands on an HTC Desire Z just yesterday and I keep trying to figure out how to connect it to my PC, since it won't pop-up in neither Windws7, Windows8 nor Ubuntu 12.04.
I have tried google drivers, HTC Sync, ADB won't recognize the device. I tried on a freshly installed windows7 - the only device that actually gets installed in Device Manager is "Quallcomm Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30)" - meaning... ?!?!?! What?!? I can't make anything out of this.
The device is S-OFF-ed here is what HBOOT says:
VISION PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.84.2000 (PC1011000)
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M

eMMC-Sandisk 2223MB 4554751sectors
It has installed CWM recovery. mounting the USB storage from CWM however doesn't work :S
So I can flash a ROM through it, but even a freshly installed ROM wouldn't connect via USB when booted, so I have to run an FTP app to exchange files between my phone and my PC. USB debugging doesn't make any difference.
Besides, I think my phone not being visible in HBOOT by ADB is a big-enough problem by itself.
Does any1 have any suggestions? I tried searching (both by hand and using the forum search engine), but didn't see any1 with a problem similar to mine.
P.S. The phone does charge via the USB cable(tried the original one AND 3 others) when connected to the computer.
I have another Android phone that ADB sees as a valid device etc. ... so I am kinda thinking it maybe even a hardware issue?
There's been some development​
I am now pretty sure it's a software issue. Connecting the device to an older PC running Windows XP works like a charm. Sadly anything that's Core i -based doesn't seem to recognize the device.
Could anyone pull his HBOOT, radio, RCdata, etc. and give it to me so I could try flashing something, that is surely known to be working software?

May have a bad pin in USB port, but if any driver at all tries to install then I'm thinking hardware is okay
Go to any guide explaining how to root and there should be links to the proper drivers.
You may need to uninstall any driver that is associated to your phone and then manually choose what driver you need.

Hmmm.... the correct DRIVERS don't seem to be working on Win8.
Will try on windows7 in a while and write back with results. BTW is there a particular device I should be looking for in the Windows' "Device Manager" ?

Windows 8 and 8.1 have issues, a few Google searchs should show you how to do it. If you can't find what driver in device manager to change there is a free windows program called USB driver search (something like that) which tells you all drivers on PC.
If you go to xda university (the xda thread for it) I have a more comprehensive fastboot guide there with directions for Linux install too

I think (and correct me if I'm wrong) that it's really not a driver issue.
The Drivers I re-linked above had no success on Windows7
I don't get unrecognized device connected to my PC. I don't get any devices connected to my PC (after I uninstalled the Quallcomm Atheros... mentioned before).
Now - again - correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the phone USB driver inside the Radio? if yes - maybe a wrong radio is flashed? Given the fact that I have a working CWM - is it possible to get a fix through it?
@ demkantor
I will do some reading on the subject you said and then test things out tomorrow morning after a clean neat Win7 installation on my PC. I'll post back results.

Ok, so - here are the results:
I re-installed my Windows OS on my PC, installed all the MoBo drivers - a clean slate.
I then installed the HTC Drivers (mentioned above), HTC Sync, platform-tools.
Connected the phone - computer made the tingling sound of a connected device, but in the device manager - nothing.
Is there a way to flash the bootloader/radio/anything, aside from a new ROM through CWM? That's all I got now :S

Flashing firmware should be done in fastboot, if your USB port is broken you can make a flashable zip and flash in recovery but it is less safe. A slightly better option is creating a pc10img.zip
What do you need to flash right now?

Well I tried flashing different radio through pc10img.zip file, but it had no effect. Windows still plays the tingling sound and no device is recognized.
I'm seeing this HBoot version - PC101000
I noted mine is a tad different - PC1011000, although my HBoot is 0.84.2000 (Which If I understand correctly is the engineering one and should be working properly). Should I be concerned about the number difference and can I flash HBoot through a PC10IMG.zip file?
P.S. I really know I should be flashing through fastboot - the point is - I can't get my DZ connected
P.P.S. Would you advise me to revert to stock (BL, Recovery, Radio, ROM) through PC10IMG.zip (if possible) ?

I know, it was just a general statement

In the 30th post you will find a link to a pc10img I made that 'may' help, but yes you can return to stock with a pc10img.zip, nipqer made a good guide, just search it out

Flashed the DZ_PC10IMG.zip file you posted - sadly there was no effect on the USB connection. I think I'm pretty convinced it's a hardware issue. At this point I think the soldering iron would be my only salvation.
Thank you very much for your time and knowledge!

Sorry for the bump-up, but I have some recent information on the matter - in the first post.

That's very strange, but again it must be a driver issue I would assume. I've had issues before with some PCs and had to use a program called USBDeview to locate all drivers associated with said phone and then force windows to install the proper ones.
All that firmware you requested can be found in the link I sent earlier in the 30th post

With all due respect I still think it's the phone's software issue. I tried installing Windows7 from the same DVD on both computers. Both PCs run fine, but one of them doesn't recognize the phone. Only difference is the hardware platform.
I tried running linux and OSX (Hackintosh) on the PC that doesn't recognize the phone - no effect on any of the OSes.
PC that recognizes the phone under both WindowsXP and Windows7 has no trouble recognizing it when running live linux (Ubuntu distro)
One other strange thing that I noticed is when I connect the phone to my car charger it asks me whether to mount the SD card or not... I'm no expert but I'm guessing that shouldn't be happening.
That is why I'm hoping that someone could pull their HBOOT, radio, rcdata, recovery, etc... and post them here so I can try flashing a known-to-be-working software and see if it helps.
P.S. (note that the phone doesn't recognize it's plugged into a PC either - it's just charging as if it was plugged into a charger)
One other thing. When I plug the phone in the PC that's not working and I reboot the phone it offers me to mount the SD card and share it with the PC, but the PC won't see there's a USB storage device. It only sees the Atheros gigabit adapter mentioned in my first post. OS clearly doesn't matter.

Again all the firmware you requested in that link on the 30th post, you can unzip it and flash each image on its own if you want, same firmware as on both my g2s and neither have issues
If you're for sure its not a driver issue than its either the USB cable or port (is the new computer USB 3.0?) I feel the phones firmware is unlikely the cause but feel free to test.
But I will say its strange that when plugged into car charger it asks for SD mount, makes me go back to my original thought of a pin on the phones USB port is bad and certain cables trigger effects not wanted
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Well I think I can rule the pin on the phone USB port out, since it's working fine with more than one computer.... sadly it's just not working with the computer I need it to work :S
I'm re-flashing the PC10IMG you posted previously (as it appears I flashed something else last time o.0 )
I'll post results and see if I can order a usb port replacement for my DZ unit.
Once again - Thank you for your time and patience with me!
Cheers
