PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD - DOUBLE
Since I updated to Froyo I wanted to install the apps to the SD Card.
So I came to the conclusion not every app could be switched over.
So I download 'Android SDK' and through the USB and CMD with Windows I followed a tut to fix this problem too. It worked I while and I could move every app I wanted.
Now when I try to install a app from the market it hangs on installing... the app was downloaded and data was used but it won't install. And every app that I installed from the market could not open.
And my PC won't detect the Sd card anymore.
anyone can help me?
I tried to make a goldcard to downgrade and fix it with an update but it won't work because my pc won't detect the SD card...
I also did a reset to my phone.
While I was running the recovery with my laptop through a dos shell to run a fix for a ROM it started to go a little haywire and start choosing things without me pressing buttons. So, I think it might have chosen the "USB-MS toggle" but the rest worked fine during the wiping and flashing the market fix, but rebooting the phone the sd card was not recognized. Then when i would try and go into recovery since then (even after getting the SD card re-recognized by the phone after downgraded to the PC36IMG) when i go to reboot into recovery I cannot get the recovery mode to start as the device is not connected to my PC.
Further, when I plug my phone into the computer it does not even seem to know it is connected to a computer because it does not bring up the "connect as" box (and yes i have the ask me checked) and does not even seem to charge while phone is on (also tried more than one cable)
Mainly would like to know if there is a way that i can copy the files onto my SDcard directly from my PC (by putting the sd card in an sd card reader) so that I can run the recovery menu on the EVO without the laptop?
Thank you for your help anyone as I am quite stressed and upset at the moment!

sounds like you need to uninstall your htc sync and re install it to get the drivers back
Did that already. Will try again
Might help to post in the questions section not development section?
Sent from my Evo using the xda app.
adbWireless would probably be another solution.. if you have a wifi network at home
Thanks for the input all...actually seemed to have a PC36IMG that I reverted back to which did not have the ability to connect but with the help of one of the ROM developers here (vaelek) I was able to solve the problem and get it up and running again!!!!
Will certainly go to the question section next time Tejas, thanks!

Tried searching but wasn't coming up with much. Just installed Fat Free Froyo and when I go to activate wifi it just says "error." I downloaded the Kaiser Wifi Update but I"m not sure how to install it. Do I just put it on my SD card and start the phone up? Any help would be much appreciated

Copy androidudpate.tgz to Andboot folder on your SD Card. Boot into Install menu
- Select Install Update
- Select Update Permissions
- Quit the menu
I hate to be that guy, but i have tried searching the forums and have had no luck...
Basically while flashing CM10 I screwed up and installed the wrong Gapps pack (never trusting goo manager again)
I got stuck in an endless boot cycle (saying 'installer has stopped' on boot, not allowing any actions)
I did a wipe before attempting to restore... and then my backup was gone.
So now I'm stuck with either attempting to restore to stock (which I'm ok with, I think this is not really my game) or going to a custom rom.
But right now I have no OS installed and my computer will not recognize the device. I have tried kies, installing / reinstalling sammy drivers, and i still can't get anything to appear except for a cd drive.
I have tried on windows xp pro, xp media edition, windows 7 home, same result.
I can still boot into download mode and recovery (i have TWRP as my recovery)
but again, i somehow wiped my backup, i can't get my computer to recognize i have a phone, and i don't have access to an SD card port.
If I get an micro sd card reader, would that give me the ability to copy the rom zip file?
I would really appreciate any advice anyone can give me.
Help! is there any way to fix my phone?
EDIT: MY PROBLEM WAS I had just recently installed a 64gb microsd card, and it was not formatted correctly... ended up getting the correct version of Gapps and a stable version of cyanogenmod (10.1) and installing them onto my girlfriends SD card (which was only 32gb and formatted correctly). I went to walmart and got a SD card to USB adapter for $8, loaded the zips onto that, and flashed them very quickly and easily through TWRP.
Not sure if it makes a difference but I flashed CM FIRST by itself, then after that booted up all nice and happy I went back and flashed Gapps (because without google what are you supposed to do? use it as a phone!? )
and everything installed perfectly and without a hitch.
Thanks for the quick help everyone!

Your not bricked at all, you just have no os.
In twrp make sure your looking at the external sd card foe your backup. And yes if you can get a micro sd card reader/adapter, you should be able to copy a rom file to it.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
You could also just put the sdcard in another phone and access it on your computer through THAT one
But yeah, as said above, you just have no OS.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
Thanks guys. I ended up using an SD card adapter, and loading the zip onto that.
Feel kinda silly for not thinking of that before.
Finally got CyanogenMod to load though!I tried it before only to get that installer has stopped error.

Help on the way
THERE IS 2 WAYS TO FIX IT.
1. POWER OFF THE DEVICE ONCE IT IS POWERED OFF FULLY HOLD THE BACK BUTTON WHILE HOLDING IT PLUG IN USB CABLE AND FLASH DOOMKERNAL AND THEN I RECOMMEND YOU SHOULD PUT DONUT HD ON THE SD CARD THEN. UNPLUG USB AND THEN POWER ON DEVICE ONCE YOU FEEL IT VIBRATE RAPIDLY PRESS BACK BUTTON YOU SHOULD BE ON CWM THEN INSTALL ROM AND YOUR SET.
2.DOWNLOAD Sony PC Companion AND THEN CONNECT PHONE THEN GO ON REPAIR PHONE AND IT WILL TELL YOU THE REST.
NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL NO MORE CM IT HAPPENED TO ME ONCE THE WHOLE PHONE DIDN'T WORK GOT STUCK ON BOOTCYCLE
ANOTHER NOTE: IF WIFI DOSEN'T WORK JUST DOWNLOAD WIFI MODULS HERE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253853 JUST SCROLL DOWN UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKES YOU FIND THE WORD NEW.
OVERCLOCK MAY NOT WORK. RECOMMENDED IS NOT CLOCKED.
3.I RECOMMEND REPAIR IT WITH SONY PC Companion THEN ROOT IT AFTER ROOT JUST PUT CWM AND THEN PUT DOOMKERNAL AFTER THAT FLASH DOOMKERNAL THEN GO INTO CWM AND THEN PUT DONUT HD INSIDE AND YOUR SET.

Nice, are you all good then? If you are, put "SOLVED" in the title please
And dont worry about feeling silly, everything is a learning process and people tend to not think straight when they are in a panic
