I've had my g1 for about 2 weeks. I have root. I have the RC33 update. I was able to connect to a pc after this update then one day I tried to get this song off of the computer so I plugged in the phone and it said "found new hardware"....I have tried everything different pc's different usb ports,different storage cards,....I tried the anycut app method....failed on one pc it opened on my laptop and then shut off again....I've soft reset,hard reset...removd the card and put it back in...no luck...any one with the answer please help...I will love you long time!
And the pc does recognize the phone is plugged up because its charging...
Hi,
Found new hardware means it was trying to install the usb drivers for your g1.
If this was not done correctly, than several things won't work like adb.
So that's what that message is.
But unplug your phone and go into settings, applications, development uncheck the box that says usb debugging,
Exit out and connect your cable, mount you drive and you can transfer files back and forth again.
Ok I did that but the box was already unchecked...so I plugged up the phone...and nothing happens so I check the box and the g1 acknowleded the pc and vise versa....and the installation wizard is for Android Phone...and is asking for an installation disk...so now I'm back to square 1...
Once you have plugged in the USB cable and Windows has recognized your phone (i.e. no new hardware found dialog anymore), you need to pull down the notification bar of the G1 and click on "connected to USB" or something along those lines. The phone will then give you an option to mount the SD card for read/write over the USB cable.
I was recently staying with some mates and tried connecting my HTC Legend to their laptop to transfer files, but the Legend did not recognize it was connected to a computer, just had the charging icon as if the cord was plugged into power.
I have the 'Default connection type' as Disk Drive, 'Ask me' each time option enabled.
On the computer, no autoplay or anything happens like it used to. I can see a removable disk drive, but it has the "Please insert a disk into drive X" error when I try open it.
I can access the SD card and everything fine through the phone..
Anyone know what's up?
Cheers
EDIT: Stock unrooted Legend
EDIT: Nevermind, rebooted phone and it works now.. sorry
This exact same thing started happening to me last night as well. I can see the drives in "My Computer", but they are greyed out and give me the "Insert drive to continue" error message. What gives?
usb
howzit guys
have you'l tried switching the phone off and then on again?
i've had this happen few times
its normally some app causing it not to popup or to be very slow in popping up
wait awhile.if still nothing then try switch off and then on and then connect the usb to the pc
Yes I know some will say install drivers or slide down the notifications.
But the problem is when I plug in, there isn't any notification for you to switch to disk drive mode.
Everything was working fine last week. There was no problems detecting my phone on my home and any PC at work. I have drivers install in my computer and can do adb commands
But now, when I plug in, it only shows the charging light.
I have done the following
On and off the USB debug option
Reboot phone
Try a 4 micro USB cable
Tried different USB slots on the computers
Use usbdeview and delete all HTC drivers and resinstall also not working
Remove my micro SD card and reinsert.
All doesn't work.
Strangely, one thing does. When I plug in the PC and I need to reboot, with my phone still plug in my PC. The notification will appear and I can do all things normally. But once I unplug and plug in again, same problem. Only can be solved with next reboot with phone plug in before hand. If windows is already loaded, it cannot be detected.
I though it was the rom. But I went to boot loader and same thing. It shows fastboot AC. If I do the reboot windows method, it will show fastboot USB .. will show fastboot AC if I replug in
I am starting to think my USB port on my phone is faulty.. any ideas?
Try plugging it and wait for a long time. Since I formated my computer it takes like 10-15min for my phone to show up after I plugged it. No idea what's causing it though.
Done that , charged it for 1hr plus, same
Best thing is try different cable, there is some issue with htc cable your pc sometime dont recognize phone, Other thing you can do it is keep ur phone connected to pc then boot your phone to Hboot or bootloader or fast boot, your pc will recognize your phone with generic driver.

hmm tried 4 cables.. same results..
Using the same cable, tried my mum's desireHD.. no problems detecting the USB each time..
Bootloader mode, it shows Fastboot AC
instead of Fastboot USB.. unless reboot my windows..
Oh i tired another micro SD card, same results.. :/
why mess with cables... AirDroid.
connect your phone to the pc via wifi.
direct link to the market: goo.gl/9YG73
but if you must connect via cable for something... have you checked the most obvious place? (sounds like you probably have but just in case...)
settings > connect to pc > default connection type

Flashed ROM......
Mine is doing the same thing. It didn't start until I flashed the new ROM. When in Windows, I just un-plug it, and re-plug it. Then it shows up immediately. But it always seems to show in flashboot.

and if that isn't working try it with HTC sync. which gives you the drivers of the device.
I got the same problem... any idea...
please help me..
Is there where USB cannot be recognized issue? If this is, I have a simple solution which took me forever to figure out.
I know this method sounds ridiculous, but give it a try. Unplug your charger connected to your computer/laptop and plug it in to a different outlet. Replug the USB with your phone connected, give it a sec, and it should work.
what operating system is your PC running? I was gonna say perhaps it might be a faulty USB port...
i have the same problem
What I do is go to devices and printers and then android phone then properties then hardware and disable the reenable the drivers. As soon as you reenable the drivers it should show up in disk mode. Hope this helps. This is the only phone I've had this problem with.
Hello.
Short story: my phone was a little wet and i have some issues with it, mostly i want to get a mass storage to get working. (cant root)
Basically at first the phone didn't even want to charge, when i connected it to the PC windows was giving me an error that the device cannot be recognized, and couldn't install the drivers. (i had Kies installed)
I dried it completely, now the phone turns on without any problem, when i connect it to the pc the phone is recognizing connection (i hear sound + the button backlights are firing up for a sec)
Homever, windows is not detecting any USB device at all, and in about phone/info it says the phone is connected to the AC instead of USB.
When i connect it with USB there is no dropdown in notification to choose from charging, storage etc.
There is also manual usb storage mounting under settings/communication/usb settings , when i'm trying to mount here it just says to connect the phone with usb cable (not detecting connection, homever the backlight + sound is here after connecting, and it's charging)
I tried connecting it with usb debugging on/off even tried to fiddle with in service menu (*#7284#) but nothing.
And since i cannot get the usb storage working basically i cannot flash anything or root it.
Also the USB cable is not a Samsung but an HTC one, could this be a problem? (people in different thread said those cables are the same so it shouldnt be a problem, same amperage, same stick etc.)
Even tried to install MountUSB Widget from market, but it doesn't work when im trying to start the app it's force closing, when i make widget on desktop and press it the phone just vibrate for 1 sec and nothing happens.
When i connect phone with Kies AIR and it works, i mean it shows the storage information, also recognize the phone model correctly, how much free space i have on internal and on SD card but i cannot click "show in explorer" it's greyed out.
Any experts out there could help me? :crying:
Just a blind guess, try a USB cable which supports your device. If it doesn't help, I'm afraid it's a hardware problem and you will have to consult some hardware expert.
I'm trying to use android file transfer on my macbook and every time i plug in my phone it automatically selects the "PC Software" option and it loads up a screen that says "Installing PC Programs.....Please check your PC" but nothing happens on my PC or phone.
I select the Media Sync (MTP) option on my phone but it will literally switch it back to PC software on its own. I've even unplugged my phone, changed the setting and plugged it back in and it keeps forcing itself onto the PC Software option, i've even gone so far to restart my phone and computer.
I have the USB drivers from LG for my macbook and phone installed but it's not working. To make things more annoying I was using android file transfer like 3 weeks ago but for some reason this keeps happening.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Thank you.
