When I was on a custom Froyo rom I would get this almost everytime. Went back to stock, no firmware updates. I wouldn't expect to see an update until after the holidays at the earliest.

Yes, most everyone has the connection problem. Just use Kies Mini + your USB cable to check for updates.
It has been doing that for a month with my phone.

Yeah, I had the same problem. I ended up downloading kies mini and after a whole night trying to make it work I finaly updated to JH7.
good at least it's not just me. I have never been able to get kies to work every time I install it I can't get my phone to connect to my computer running win7.

Kies or Kies Mini?
i had this problem. here's what fixed it for me (hopefully for you, as well):
settings > applications > manage applications > menu|filter|all > device management > clear data
you must reboot afterwards.
Fail to communicate because you guys are killing a process call Device Management. Reboot your phone and make sure it doesn't get kill by the task killer.

I picked up a useful inspire the other day and I'm having issues sideloading apk's. My 2 other phones sideload fine with the wondermachine but this one wont. It tells me device not found. I've done a few things that I've read online, installed some drivers and htc sync from a website, still didn't work so I uninstalled them all. Btw,debugging is enabled.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
After installing the drivers did you uninstall HTC sync? If I recall you suppose to uninstall syn and leave the drivers on you PC when using the wondermachine.
HTC Inspire does allow you to side load now, you should not need the wondermachine.
I uninstalled everything, but only after nothing worked, wasn't aware that I had to uninstall sync only. Could someone send me links for the proper downloads please.
How do we sideload without the wondermachine? I don't see unknown sources in the phones settings, unless there's another option to install apk's.

my phone still won't get recognized by my laptop. not to sure why. it hasn't been able to recognize it since i flashed to gb. my wife has the same phone stock and the laptop sees hers fine.
things I've tried:
reinstall drivers
restarts
kies
different rom
different laptop
different cables
download mode
factory resets
debug mode and ask on connection
deleting the usbs from device manager
like i say my wifes phone can get recognized by my laptop. i think the bootloaders for gb has something to do with this problem but that's just me thinking.
i get an unknown device error in device manager. also when i was installing the drivers and

Your computer sees your device it just doesn't know what it is. I thinks this is because Odin jacked up your device drivers. many people have this issue and can resolve it by reinstalling the drivers combined with a different version of Odin. Did I mention Odin is unstable? Lol.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

An adb icon where exactly?
For odin or heimdall to detect your phone you must first place it in download mode by:
-Remove battery and put it back.
-While holding vol up and down, connect your device to the Pc
If it still does not recognize your device then it could be the drivers
