HTC Sync

i have had a rooted G1 for about a year and a half. i just recieved my Evo this morning.
the issue is I open sync on my pc, connect the phone and select htc sync from drop down. htc sync on the phone says that my vista pc does not have sync.
i have tried installing sync from the stock sd card and downloaded from htc.com
nothing seems to work. i saw similar questions asked several times but not clearly answered. if anyone can offer some suggestions i would be grateful.

Try uninstalling HTC Sync from your PC. And then reinstall the one from the website (it's the latest version compared to the one in the SD card). After installation run HTC Sync and connect the USB cable to your PC (don't connect the other end of the USB cable to the Evo yet). Then connect your Evo to the USB cable. If it doesn't work, try restarting your PC and then connecting it again. If it still doesn't work, try a different USB cable. I don't know if it will work but those are the procedures I'll be doing if I'm in your shoes. Sometimes USB cables and it's accompanying software are not that Plug N Play as we want them to be.

Attempting that now. thank you.
I did as you suggested, even used my wife's data cable for her pre. and still nothing.
just to clarify...all i (should) have to do is open sync on the computer and then choose sync from the notification dropdown after connecting to usb, right?

maybe someone else has had and fixed this problem? i am unable to root without htc sync working.

2) Make sure your phone is set to USB debugging
3) Add the downloaded Vista drivers folder to the aforementioned location.
4) Go into the Device Manager (Start > Control Panel > Device Manager) and look for 'ADB Interface' or similar and expand that.
5) Right-click on the item under that and go to properties.
6) Click Update Driver and then "Browse my computer for driver software".
7) IMPORTANT STEP: Click the link, "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
8) Click "Have Disk" and Browse to the location where you put the HTC Driver folder and open the Vista 64x folder.
9) There are two INF files in there. Choose 'htcrndis.inf' and click Open.
10) Click Okay and the device shown will be "My HTC". Select that and click Next to install.

sorry to be annoying. it is killing me to not root this device. any help?

is this folder in the sdk? where do i download from?

ok. so i go into device manager and and the "my htc" device has a triangle with a ! in it. under properties it says windows cant initialize the device driver. i go to driver properties and find "C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\ANDROIDUSB.sys and CWindows\system32\WdfCoInstaller01007.dll". i go to the appropriate folders and delete them and then install C:\Programfiles\HTC\HTCDriver\DriverFiles\Vista_x86\htcrmdis.inf i do this based on someones advice. i then reboot the computer, go to device manager, plug in phone, and the drivers are right back to "C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\ANDROIDUSB.sys and CWindows\system32\WdfCoInstaller01007.dll"
which driver in the htc drivers file should i be using?

Hopefully, this is the right place to post this windows support issue!!!
I presume ur on Windows 7!, have no trial version of bluetooth software!, 'Bluetooth Support Service' is running and set to 'Automatic' & have no MAC address confects.
Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' from : h++p://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
Install the downloaded software, Vista automatically configures the settings on the bluetooth devices but not Windows 7.
Now go to 'Device Manager' u'll see 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device' under 'Other devices', right-Click it and click on "Update Driver Software".
Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software".
Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".
Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the list, in the next window, it will show a list of drivers with Company Names.
In the Company List choose 'Microsoft Corporation', not only Microsoft.- the drivers list may contane one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different versions. Select one or the latest ver.-.
Ignore the rest of warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last.
If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is successfully installed.
In 'Device Manager' when you click on 'Bluetooth Radios', it should show a new item 'Windows Mobile-based device support'.
Remove the device and add it again.
Restart the computer.

Very nice! Thanks!

Oh neat!

This worked for me, may for others too. i use Win 7
Right click on My Computer.
Left click on Properties
On the left side of the Systems window, click on Device Manager.
Under "Portable Devices", Double click on the "MTP Device" probably with a yellow alert.
Click the Driver tab at the top of the window.
Click the "Update Driver" button.
Click "Browse my computer for driver software".
Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer".
Make sure you double-click the SECOND "MTP Device" in the list (the first one is the one that is failing, you want the USB one).
It should then say "Installing device driver software" and "Windows has successfully updated your driver software".
Now the "MTP Device" should pop up in a window asking you what you want to do with the device, and you should now be able to transfer all files from either internal or external memory again..

USB Device Not Recognized - Win10

tl;dr: Boot your Moto in Fastboot mode with USB connected to PC for it to recognize the device, then reboot normally.
For those with issues with their PC recognizing the device, in my case Verizon's Droid variant. I racked my brain all weekend and tried multiple different cables and PCs in order to push some ADB commands and transfer files with nothing seeming to get the PCs to recognize the phone. I just now rebooted into Fastboot mode and the PC now recognizes the phone, both in Fastboot and under normal boot. Hope this helps anyone with a similar problem. Cheers!

I have tried this method and still the PC does not see the Phone in File Transfer mode but will see it in Photo transfer.
Help, I have the Moto 6.4 drivers installed, when I check device Manger on the PC i see "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)"
If I try to force a driver update I am told the "INF" is invalid. Any suggestions are welcome, this has me scratching me head and is driving me nuts.

Phone does not connect

It just doesn't show up in ADB devices. However, when I change ROMs it does, but gives me an error when trying to mount "not permitted"
Amazon was of no help. They gave an add on link to enter into SDK manager but it would fail every time... something on how it failed to update the status to complete. I'll add images later.
Can anyone help me with this? In case stuff goes south with my phone, I want to have a chance at recovery through ADB.
(Other notes: Win7 32-bit, ran as admin, enabled USB debugging from developer options, added site on SDK manager)
