Evening everyone
Got a BIG problem with my phone today and having searched and read i still cant fix it
Ok a little about my phone: Rooted with amon recovery, recently s/off, CyanogenMod 7 rom and kernel, -32 radio..
Right here is the problem...
Did a nandroid backup in recovery of the rom i was using ^^ and all seemed fine, i then rebooted my phone,, booted up, waited for everything to work and then i noticed my apps weren't there?
Went into storage and it showed no memory card,, so i rebooted phone hoping this might fix but it didn't.
Plugged my phone into laptop and a message flashed up "usb device not recongnised" i though Sh!t whats happened ?
So i booted my phone into recovery to mount the sd and a message again "error cant mount sd"
Clicked reboot phone and now its stuck on the "why so serious" screen ???????
Ive dloaded the sdk tool but really not sure what i should be typing in there ??
Anyone with a little time care to help me out please lol ???
Cheers
EDIT: I have flashed nearly every rom on xda since i rooted about 4 months ago without any problems, always did the wipes in recovery before flashing so really dont know what has happened here ?
Try formatting SD card, if that doesn't work, reflash recovery

Looks like you have been usb bricked, look this forum for usb brick fix, its not the fault of the rom, it just sometimes happens. Got it once too, easely to fix.
Sent from my HTC Desire
Im not blaming the rom not one bit as its been running fine this morning up untill i did the backup.
I have read and read that much my heads spinning %-( there's hek of a lot to take in and being a rather noooooob im lost as to what i should do
Worstenbrood is right, that's.just a USB brick, don't worry, it's an easy fix. Search Modaco for USB rickrolled.
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
You can skip step one.
Not to worry ? im bricking it lmao
I really aint got a clue about the fastboot thingy if you have a little time could you give me a step by step of how its done
cheers
Download the SDK and then use the command prompt to run the fastboot command from the Modaco tutorial.
There are quite a few guides for fastboot, just Google it
Hi
I just ran the command and when entered it said fastboot not found?
You need to run it from the directory containing fastboot.executive (in the SDK).
thanks for the replies
i have tried that but im getting 'adbwinapi.dll is missing from your computer'
i have re-installed sdk and still wont work?
Did you do this
Windows XP / Vista
Right click on the My Computer icon and select the properties tab.
Select the Advanced tab and click the Environment Variables button.
In the new dialog box dowble-click on Path (located under System Variables) and type in the full path location to the tools directory.
Has to be done for it to work
If you have never used sdk before Google for a good install & how to use guide
whooohoooo right solved the sd problem, new rom flashed and powered up Many Thanks guys "but" i still cant use the usb on laptop ?
When i plug usb in it the phone only charges ? and an usb not recognised message ?
did u install the htc drivers from the htc website? i was having problems with connecting my phone dowloaded those and un-installed sync and all was fixed!
i get 'usb not recognised message' every now and then on my home pc and the works pc both running Windows 7 64bit.
I found that usually when it pops up about
'usb not recognised message'
i just unplug the cable then back in a few seconds after the message then it usually connects ok. sometimes it takes a few attempts.
thats with 'HTC Wildfire_setup_3.0.5481' installed for the 64bit drivers.
Thanks very much guys for all your help managed to get the usb fixed by installing htc sync
But now i have another problem i noticed today is Bluetooth wont turn on ? is there a fix out there for this ?
cheers
Im experiencing strange reboots now with phone plugged into laptop via usb, and on the status bar on phone it show usb debugging and then dissapears and comes back and when i unplug usb the phone reboots?
I wiped the laptop yesterday and phone seemed fine and now the troubles have come back
In logcat error im also getting this message when i enable bluetooth
attempting to remove unknown iface (usb0), ignoring
bt_enable: Timeout waiting for HCI device to come up
Seems as if the brick has actually fooked my phone up good and proper !
i had notice there is alot similar post to this problem but none really solved it. so i start this thread to make it more specific
1) once connected to pc, my wildfire automatically charge
2) no pop-up or option on the top to slide down to select either htc sync, mount as sd card, etc
3) tried reboot, mount unmount card, untick usd debugging, changed other rom, but still not working.
4) if connected to pc still automatically charging even if i change "default connection type" to disk drive, or usb tethering
5) i tick "ask me" so i can choose the connection type when connect to pc, but when connected to pc, nothing. just charging.
i'm rooted, using hg hybrid v3 (problem was there before i flash HG rom). it used to work before. i dont recalled when was the last time it start to behave like this. all this time i thought i set the connection default to charging, but when i want to transfer songs, only then i realised this problem. i m not sure which custom rom might cause this problem (if it does) because i had flash more than 10 roms
i have same problem with cm7
I haven't try to format my sd card. because when I connect without sd card, still no connect option. if my card is malfunction/the main problem, then my phone should work fine n show the connect option after I remove the card, right? (I do have connection option on the setting. what I meant no connection option is the pop up conection menu+connection option on the top bar. changing the connection on the setting change nothing)
I too have this prob but never questioned this as i never use htc sync. But if u really wanna use it try this i'm not sure it may work or not but mostly its due to driver problem:
1.Connect your device in htc sync mode.
2.Uninstall or Remove all drivers of htc and also htc sync.
3.Disconnect your device and Restart your pc.
4.Reinstall htc sync and connect your device in htc sync mode.
5.It'll install fresh drivers for your device and if asked to restart then do it else run htc sync.
If you are running vista or later try to run htc sync in administrator mode.
I'm not sure this method work but there's no problem on trying it. Reply your result after doin above steps
I also think the problem might related to my driver but I remember that when I first connect to my pc, there will be pop up menu, and my phone automatically recognized as "disk drive" (I m not install HTC driver yet. infact ,I install the driver after my phone connected to my pc through disk drive connection since the driver located on the SD card). nway, I"ll try your method and post the result later.
I just notice this might not work..the problem is I cannot change the connection. even if I did, it doesn't change the connection. it just charging.. as if I put it on default "charging" as it connect. but I will try later anyway
When i connect my phone the debugging icon shows up and my pc makes the noise but doesnt let me choose mass storage (running cm7). it shows up on my pc on drive f: but when i click it just says please insert a disc into removable storage F:
xynok, did u tried untick the usb debugging? go to setting, application, development, untick usb debugging. u still lucky at least it prompt u something if u connect to pc, mine nothing. its like I plug it to the socket wall not pc

not working..
try this if u r using sense roms . Also try this for AOSP roms, if there is an option(i dont know about AOSP).
Go to Settings/Applications/Manage applications/All/
Then search for "Connect to PC". Actually in stock roms that was an app by htc. But there must be something similar to that in AOSP roms. Then open that and select, "Force stop" , "Clear data", "Clear cache".
I dont know for sure if that solves the issue or not. But have a try.
And by seeing this thread, actually i got a doubt, "can we synchronise the htc sync in AOSP custom roms". Since AOSP is nothing but removing the HTC crap. Can someone confirm this .......

nope. still nothing. anyway since it had this problem, I had wipe my wildfire few times, n try different rom.. maybe it is because of faulty cable. but if the cable is the culprit, why it still charging? is it possible the cable is broken but still can charging?

Not telling that it should be, but definitely there is a possibility of a cable culprit.
The USB male/female end has 4 connections in which two connections are used for voltage and the remaining two connections are used for data transfer.
There might be a possibility that the data connection got broken with voltage connection retaining. Try with another cable (any USB v2 cable).
And one more thing, for having the disk drive option, nothing need to be installed in the pc. U need to install htc driver in the pc only if u want to use usb debugging , usb tethering.
[But at the wildfire end the cable has 5 connections and i dont know what the 5th one is for. mostly it will be a NO CONNECTION]
Now i got another idea to diagnose ur issue.
Well do u know of application "pdanet". It uses USB DEBUGGING feature to tether ur phone internet to PC. Actually usb debugging can be used both under charge mode and disk drive mode. What u can know on doing this is whether usb debugging through ur phone is working or not. U can diagnose the thing while checking with every app that uses usb debugging. So try it. Enable the usb debugging in phone first.
---Install pdanet desktop version and follow the setup instructions. It asks to connect ur phone during setup to install usb driver and also pdanet.apk to mobile. Connect ur phone with usb debugging enabled. I doubt whether desktop version installs or not because of ur issue. Mostly desktop version of pdanet will not install without a phone connected having usb debugging enabled. And if the desktop version is installed successfully, that means ur phone usb debugging is working. And if desktop version is installed successfully, that means it also installed the mobile version of pdanet.apk to ur phone (which says that data transfer is working). Then open the pdanet on phone and enable usb tether. Then open pdanet from desktop and connect. Then see whether u r able to access internet from pc.
---One more method is try to use ADB from android sdk. It also uses the usb debugging feature.
If adb and pdanet works, that means usb debugging feature on ur phone is working. If it is so, then it is mostly not a cable problem (as far as i know). And if they dont work there is a chance that it is a cable problem.
......................................................................................................................................................................................
And one more thing. If u have used a stock rom (freshly formatted), and faced the issue, then it is mostly not a software problem. Then it might be cable problem or some kind of problem in ur phone. Also check ur phone radio version. Thats all.
bharatgaddameedi, i cant install pdanet. it say android phone not detected. error =103. i think u were right. its hardware related problem but its look like not the cable. most probably its my wildfire usb jack. i test the cable with other mobile, its working (test it on nokia 5800). before i had this problem, sometime i use htc cable to transfer data for my 5800, and some time i used 5800 cable to transfer data for my wildfire. the difference between the two cable pin might damage my wildfire usb jack.. (u said htc cable got 5 pin, so i asume nokia got 4?)

So, pdanet not detecting the phone means usb debugging is also not working under charge mode. That should be phone hardware related problem like u have said about usb jack.
And No. All the micro USB version 2 cables will be the same. Its same for 5800 and wildfire. I use my previous 5233 cable to my wildfire even now.
The usb jack of wildfire may damage if u have used it in an improper way. Something like pressure on the cable when connected and so on...
So, its not something we can solve here. That should be given to service centre as far as i know

Can't be. I am using my N82's data cable for data transfers on my Wildfire from Day 1. The provided data cable is pretty much permanently attached to the wall charger.
I accept the fact that it might be hardware problem but there is one more thing I want to try. how about flashing stock rom from pc? flashing 2.1 is ok since it can be rooted again. I had flash stock rom but from the clockwork mod, not from pc, and the hboot is been remove for save flashing. I never try this before because all this time I thought that the problem was cause by custom rom, so I just need to find the right custom Rom.
How can u flash a stock Rom from pc when the usb is not functioning. RUU will not work.
Things get worse when basic things stop functioning.

have you ever tried to format sdcard while your phone is connected to laptop?
if you have another pc/laptop you can use it.
you need computer to unlock bootloader then i dont think you need it much.so if your computer not working you can use any other computer because its one time method.
and also i have same problem as you had.so i found one software on internet (i couldnt remember it now) that can remove drivers from your com.so you can manually remove drivers and reinstall them so that ll might work.
(for me i have to format my laptop then atlast my phone recognised by it)
Thanks for your help...
I could connect my phone and created a gold card and then installed a ruu file and it says finished successfully but phone cant start and goes to a black screen

which ruu you chose?
is there custom recovery installed on your phone?
see ruu works like mentioned:
you can chose any ruu,if you make goldcard and also set bootloader to locked state and then supervision with bl-tool.
and you wanted to root your phone so why ruu?
dear all, my first post here @xda
i am using ignorance v4 on my htc one v and i trying to move to shpongle.i did everything.i flash the kernel before flashing the ram but after the rom flash, when i go to fastboot mood, my laptop says cannot recognize the device by saying maybe the device is not working properly try reconect the device. I have all drivers installed and before this i used many roms but never faced this problem.android sdk installed.al in one toolkit and every other option.when i go to the adb or fastboot whatever you say, the laptop stop recognizing my device.it works when my phone is in normal mode and i can transfer files or anything.htc sync manager is also there.I can reinstall the ignorance from my sd card and it works normally.but shpongle stucks on boot screen, which mean i need to flash the kernel.but how can i flash the kernel file.it stop recognizing usb connection when i try to connect fastboot usb.
i change ports,laptop, cable but nothing works.
plz plz help me on this,i cant go back to stock rom in this situation
Hey!
I wanted to flash a custom rom because my stock rom was very very slow (after 3 years of permanent usage). I installed TWRP and wipe the phone. Then I wanted to use adb to push the desired rom to my Gnex. But my Gnex is not recognized by the computer. So there is no adb possible. Am I lost? Do I need to recycle my Gnex or is there any change to bring a rom onto the phone? TWRP is working but without usb connection it is worthless, is it?
I fear that the usb port of my Gnex is not working properly (maybe broken). It's charging but no computer recognize it (I tried 2 Windows machines and two Mac Books).
I'm happy for every tip or hint. Maybe you could help me find a way to get my Gnex working again. I'm not very optimistic but the android community amazed me before and so I hope you guys do again

Odin Mode??
is ur phone totally bricked?? can't u go to the odin mode ( by pressing power button and volume down button) ????
drivers?
Are the drivers installed so the phone and cpu can communicate?
Is the device recognized by the windows device manager when its plugged in? If not you could try to copy the rom zip on a usb flash drive and then connect it over usb otg (to see if it's mountable in the twrp mount section).
