im sure these are posted somewhere, plz help.. i need the mac drivers for this phone
What are you looking to do? I have a Mac and mounting the SD card on my Mac to transfer files is very easy. If you're looking to root using a mac, the hack kit includes instructions on what to do.

There are no mac drivers and you don't need them. Turn on usb debugging

Hi Everyone, I am new to the Android seen, I just switched from a Blackberry to the Galaxy S 4G. I am trying to load 64 bit drivers, and as you can imagin I am not having too much luck. when I try to load them I get a error. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate.
1: the errors i get is that it can't find drivers for-
PCI Simple comunications controller, and Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller.
2: the other problem I am having is simple understanding. How do you turn USB debugging mode on and off?
3:I downloaded supperoneclick and when it loads and I hit Root, It just hangs on (waiting for device) Probably because the USB drivers aren't loading correctly.
And yes I am a N00b, so please don't be to hard on me
Thanks For any help you can offer me. Tim.
Try downloading the 32bit. I had the same problem when I did it with the 64bit. To get debugging turned on go to the phone setting, applications, development it should be in there.

Ok I did what you said and I still have the PCI controller and USB controller fualts, but it loaded other drivers also which got it to work. I was able to root it with superoneclick, and I am somewhat happy now.
what does Rooting the phone do to it? what are the advantages?
now can I view, load and unload apps using my computer, and how would I do that?
Also can I view, load and unload music, video and other files using the computer aswell? and again how would I do that? Or if you could point me to a thread that explains all this that would be great aswell.
Thanks, Tim.

Search the development forums, for info on how to uninstall system apps, applying the fota fix, using Odin, etc.

The advantages of root are many. Mainly, you now have "superuser" privileges and access to all files and folders on your phone. This will allow you add or delete what you like and make many beneficial changes.
Just read these forums carefully and keep asking questions so you don't mess anything up. Have fun modding!

check to make sure you have windows media 11 or higher on your computer. I had that issue. Running XP I had an issue but Win 7 it installed easily..
This is what I used
Motorola_End_User_Driver_Installation_5.1.0_32bit.msi
MotoHelper_2.0.49_Driver_5.0.0.exe
Windows Media 11
Also search around on google lots of people have had this issue and thats how I found my answer.. Also xoomforums.com is a good site for answers as well
OK so I installed wmp11 and it will recognize my xoom thanks for the tip. however now I cannot get ADB to work my device is there I have every sdk ever made down loaded and I have the moto USB driver mentioned installed but I can't get into a ADB to save my life.

usb debugging needs to be checked in order for the adb to work.
I have a mac book pro, and I want to use Odin, install CWM, and root using that computer, is that possible? Must it be on Windows?

I have a mac too, I've hard conflicting reports, but I'm not sure you can (at least not easily). I'd suggest just using a friend's pc to do it. It'll take you 5 minutes and you'll never need to use the computer again.
If you what your doing you can pull the recovery image out of an odin flashable and use Heimdall to flash it. If you don't know what those are best to borrow a windows machine.
It might be possible if you have windows boot camp for Mac

I used VMWare/Windows 7 from my Mac to root my device.
There is a native way using the Android SDK

Try a different cable?

Or a different usb port if you have a 3.0 usb...try a 2.0 usb instead. Also you might consider updating to latest HTC software/drivers if you didn't do that already. Check if it's working on another pc with the same cable...if it does, it's not the cable, it's the pc or HTC software or drivers
Just forgot...you said you're on stock ROM. That has an option specifying how phone connects to the pc via USB...it's in HTC Sync mode right?

Nash...it automatically connects to Usb Debugging and MPT...and it doesn't have any other optionthn mobile network sharing

Are you still able to view the SD card VIA file explorer ?
If you can view your card from the phone then you may have a bad cable or a bent pin
Is your phone still taking a charge ? if not you may have a bad port on the phone
I would try a different cable and or switch USB ports
I had the same issue and it was due to a bent pin on my cable as mentioned above.
I was transferring files with WiFi File Explorer until I bought a new cable.
I can copy from my Mobi to Pc easily...the only thing i can't do is to copy from Pc to Mobi.....

What exactly did you try?
Set the usb connection as mtp?
enable usb debugging?
Tried another cable?
If you're just wanting to transfer files, you can use a wifi transfer app where you access the phone through a web browser once the wifi app is started on the phone.
If you got your phone locked with a swipe, pin or password, you need to unlock it first
