I hard-SPLled my device and unpreded ROM Miri v3.0 on it. After the upgrade the device could not connect to my PC via ActiveSync or Mobile Center.
I tried with several PCs, laptops and many cables.
It should be 'soft'ware, since the problem started after ROM upgrade.
So, I figured it was because of the ROM, so downgraded to official 6.1 ROM, but connecting is still not possible. The official ROM included bootloader, radio and OS, btw.
Now I am stuck with a device that cannot connect to any PC! I always get a message of an unknown device that connects, later on followed by a message of an unknown USB device.
And yes, tried to remove the speed-up of ActiveSync. Also tried as USB storage, but I get the unknown USB device all the time...
Please help, I don't know what to try now!
Try a different USB cable. Might be a good idea to buy a brand new one. They tend to go corrupt easily.

Have you tried using a differant usb port? I had to do that with a miri rom on my "old" Blackstone. I did have trouble with miri roms doing that on my Touch HD,for some strange reason.
You could also go to the threads in that forum and read what people have done to remedy that problem on the HD, as it should also work on our Tilt 2.
Later..............

try rebooting your pc, also try a different usb port on your comptuer and then try another usb cable. i have read somewere that some computers do not put out enough voltage on the usb ports, so this said, after you try the previous suggestions grab your cable and try another computer, after you install activesynce of course .
Thanks for thinking with me!
I tried several PCs, so, yes, different USB ports.
Also tried several cables that proved to be ok with other devices, including one ExtUSB cable.
Of cause resetted PCs before connecting and first installing ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Center (depending on OS: WinXP or Vista)
When connecting to USB connections that worked before now sometimes the Touch tells me there is insufficient power... That's strange too! It would mean the device needs more than 500mA in some cases (because it's the only device connection to the USB) - but this is on more USB ports of different computers!
So I tried everything qua hardware... Don't know what to do now.

Have you considered -- or tried -- flashing to a different ROM via the sd-card method? The method where you put the RHODIMG.nbh file in the root of your sd card (by removing card and using a card reader attached to PC), then put the TP2 in bootloader and it flashes the new ROM from the sd card...something like that?
I probably didn't describe this quite right -- I haven't done it myself -- but lots of people prefer this rom-flashing method. Find/check-out the procedure elsewhere on this forum.
If it works then maybe you'd get away from the problem-rom...if the rom is really the problem.
Hi, I have reflashed my ROM I dont know how many times. Yesterday I tried to connect via activesync on a new ROM and it wouldnt connect. These are some of the things that happened:
Device orange charging light flashes a few times then goes off [never seen THAT before]
Activesyc menu comes up on device but activesync doesnt connect
Get 'this device can perform faster' message on desktop
Sometimes get USB devce not recognized on desktop
SOmetimes device orange charging light it stays on if I plug direct into PC but still doesnt activesync
I have tried to connect as DISK DRIVE but I dont see the device on my PC.
Have tried different ROMS, 6.5, 6.51, sense 2.1 and 2.5 but all have same issue. Have also tried connecting to other computers. same issue.
Have played around with USB to PC menu options (enable / diable faster data sync etc) but doesnt make a difference.
Anyone had this problems? Thoughts?
Have you tried diselecting "ask me 1st about usb connection type when I connect the device to the pc" under USB to PC settings
It worked for me
This is the exact problem I am facing!
I tried everything - as diskdrive, activesync (with/without speedup), etc.
On many ROMs, even the original one (WM6.1)
Can't connect - every PC gives an 'unknown device' and on some ROMs I cannot charge via USB, only via mains...
I also tried without the question on connection.
Just some thoughts:
Do you have corruptions on screen sometimes? (Some graphical glitches)
Any .CAB files you cannot install?
Did you try to reflash the same ROM more than once?
tried to connect without card in the device and in flight mode? (Uses less power)
With me it started after a ROM flash from Miri... (I don't blame him!!)
The Hard SPL did not give me any problem, the radio was not flashed, just the OS. But reverting did not help.
I certainly hope you will find a solution, since I have the exact same problem!!
Do you stil know what ROM you flashed when this problem occured?
I reverted to original ROM 6.1 AND 6.5 which included everything - boot, radio, os, stardup image. But it did not change!
I figured it out after trying everything i could: i think its a hardware problem. I have dropped my devicetoo many times, or plugged it in too many times. Who knows.

And how did you figured it out? Did you return the device to the shop?
I have this exact same issue except I am on AthineOS... I thought it was my PC until I read these posts. No OS updates or any other machine updates were performed except on my device. Any clues as to a fix?
Somehow I don't think this is just hardware.
I did drop my device once, but that was even before first flash. After that it still worked.
So, some weeks later I HSPLed without any problem. After that the device still worked.
Then, after investigating which ROM to use I flashed the ROM a few days later.
Right after the first flash it all still worked. So, had to flash another and from that moment on the device cannot be reckognised by any PC.
I still think it has something to do with the flashing. I think the device does not give correct feedback when it receives some commands from PC (eg. the command to reply the device type/number)
Does anyone know a program which can check the USB port for the HTC Touch Pro 2? Just to test wheather the connector pins are ok?
download activesync 4.5 and run the setup. it will perform a repair. that usually solves the problem. if not, try a different usb cable and try plugging into different ports on your pc.

These are the first things done. And this was already written in here.
It happens with many PCs, including some on which the device never connected to.
Also tried different cables, ports, etc.
Also disabled the fast transfer etc. etc.
Even tried several other ROMs, inclusding original Dutch 6.1 and Dutch 6.5
I'm having the same issue. I can connect via bluetooth, but not usb. And I'm stuck with 6.1. I was tole my phone was brand new, but now I'm starting to think otherwise.

Some questions, to verify this is due to flashing or is a fault in the design of the device...
- Where did you get the device?
- Have you flashed the device?
- Did you accidentally drop the device?
hi just to say had a completely orignal o2 xda orbit 1 flashed with new rom everything worked perfect before now active sync plays up i can sometimes connect but get usb device not reconigsed then click cross then pull out usb then reinsert then active sync connects works fully functional then after 5 min it disconects this is driving me mad as use active sync for a fast internet connection on my pda as my wifi is crap
Hello, XDA-Experts!
I encounter a problem with my desire HD and looking for any help I can get.
Since about one week my Phone is not recognized when connected to a PC.
I am using the phone since December 2010 and it works well since then. It's S-Off and Radio S-Off. In the moment, I am using CoreDroid 4.9 with Radio 26.06.04.06_M. Before I was using the ARHD ROM for some time.
The problem occurs on 3 different PC's with 3 different operating systems (Server 2003, Win 7 Ultimate 64-Bit, Win XP Pro SP3, all of them used to recognize the phone before). Windows never recognizes the phone now, android (in most cases) recognizes the connection an asks for the connection mode. The phone is ALWAYS charging over USB.
What I tried so far, after searching in different forums and via Google:
- Rebooting the phone
- Removing the phone's battery
- Booted in fastboot - no USB connection
- Tried a different USB cable
- Changed the USB ports at pc (without hub, no other USB-devices connected)
- Flashing other ROM (tried CM and MIUI, with full wipe/factory reset)
- Checked the USB-connector in the phone with an electronic microscope - all contacts look fine
I am running out of ideas, the only thing I couldn't try, is another radio, because I don't know how to flash without pc. But I don't think, the problem is related to the radio...
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your device manager shows anything when you connect it to your pc?Debugging mode is enabled?
Device Manager shows nothing. Debugging Mode is enabled.
I went through a similar problem a while back - took ages to resolve it - in my case the problem was the usb cables I was using - I had tried a few - but its possible to get cables that only charge and dont communicate - eventually i got it fixed by using a new original cable.
Might not be this for you but it certainly helped me
No fix that I know of...
I had this problem...
I tried different computers, different SD cards, I could take the sd card out and put it in a usb holder and that would work fine, so it really wasn't the sd card. I tried different usb cables too.... nothing would work.
I spoke to my carrier (Orange) to see if they could sort out the problem, and they went through their 'script' of diagnostics and came to the conclusion that it was my computer drivers and there was nothing wrong with the phone!!!
I then rang HTC and after several phones calls later, they said that they would repair it, unfortunately that would have left me without a phone for 2 weeks, so I rang Orange again to demand that they replaced the phone! I told them that HTC had said it was a fault and they sent out a replacement Luckily I had not rooted it at this point, so it was easy for me to swap it.
The replacement phone came the next day, and like magic, worked fine when I connected it to my computer (the same one that apparently had faulty drivers!!)
So, I never found a fix for this, but managed to get a replacement! hopefully you will be able to sort something out...
Good luck
I had this problem once and it turned out to be kernel related, but I'm not sure if this would apply in your case since you've flashed a few ROMs and still have the issue. Still, might be worth trying one of Apache's Buzz kernels or LeeDrOiD's latest... if only to rule out another possibility.
does your PC recognize it if you mount the SD in recovery?
if not, it should be the cable
I had the same thing, I went crazy, and somebody told me to use another cable
and worked
Same happened to me.
Seems the phone crashed the USB controller or something on the PC.
A reboot of the PC fixed it for me (I dont see you mention that anywhere).
First of all, thanks a lot for all your replies!
As I said before, I tried 2 different cables, that both worked fine before. But after your replies I tried a third, new one - same result.
The card is recognized fine by windows when I put it in a USB-Card Adapter.
What I forgot to mention in my initial post, is, that I also formatted the card in my pc, put it back in the phone and started the phone new - same result.
I will try some other kernels now. B.t.w., has anyone a solution for flashing the radio without pc? Via terminal, or recovery? As this is one of the few things, that I couldn't try yet.
I'm 99% sure radio wont be a factor in this mate as they only deal with mobile connections, eg GSM/3G, Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS. If the problem is software and not hardware then I think it will be with the Android USB gadget driver, which is in the kernel. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Can you mount as usb in CWM?
No, that doesn't work either.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
1) Try reinstall HTC driver on your windows and try again.
2) If it failed, backup all your files on sd card via USB-Card Adapter. Then use SD Formatter 3.0 (google it) to format the sd card. Copy the backup files back to SD card and try mount the usb again.
HELP i got the same problem
I use the phone in the last 6 months; I have S-OFF, clockworks custom recovery and rooted stock HTC 2.2 Froyo. The only change I made last week is purchasing a desktop cradle "stand". I tested the stand several times the last week and I was able to access the SD card & the HTC sync modes successfully.
Now when I connect the phone using stand or any other USB cable including the original HTC; nothing happened on the computer! The USB manager activates and brings up the USB connection type menu. However, nothing recognized by PC.
I tried all things that you can expect (another PC, another cable, factory reset, new room, with/without cradle) nothing happened, even I connected the phone on a new PC it didn’t detect the new driver!
What to do now??
Hi,
Not sure if you have already, but you can try the new HTC sync version 3.0.5557 - It's actually for the HTC flyer tablet, but i installed it and it works perfectly for the DHD.
You might have a driver issue, but the new 3.0 sync comes with new windows drivers so maybe it's worth a shot.
I've checked the HTC Flyer support page but there's no link there for the 3.0 Synch ... I could only find a direct link, here below
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=1097&news_id=923
Be sure to un-install the previous HTC sync first
Its not a driver issue, I tried the new sync. Not working. Nothing is working with USB only the charger.
I have a feeling that electrostatic damaged my USB. I remembered last week I touch the phone while charging and a one electrostatic click was strong.
help!!

I tried on Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 8. The hardware manager says NOTHING, there is no notification when the phone is connected. Although today I tried it on Windows 8.1 pro, and it worked for like a minute. All options worked fine, the disk drive, USB Tethering etc but then it stopped working again.

I bought it off the internet a month back. The guy I got it from said he never rooted it. So, no custom rom or any modding done yet. I'm currently using Ubuntu, this too doesnt detect my phone. And I tried again on my LED TV but the USB Connection was established in like 2 seconds so there's no problem with the port or the cable. What drivers do you use? My phone doesnt even get detected by the HTC Sync.
my note 2 is running normal and I connect it on pc today and he just loaded, but do not want to connect more in no uniformed of 3 pc I have at home, but yesterday he connected normal. even bought a usb flex to see if solved, but not forward, already removed and installed the samsung drivers, kies too, but not forward.
in windows device manager has an error: unknown device (failure device descriptor request)
I'm already crazy here, because not get to spend anything to phone and or copy it to the PC, please help me .... :crying:
you could try other wires, maybe there's something wrong with the wire. =)
