updating rom ATT tilt connection error

just tried several times to update without success. I have Vista. My problem is not one I have read about yet.
I USB connect the phone and start the ROM program, as soon as I hit run on my laptop, I get the rainbow on my phone... but, as I progress through the steps my phone some how is dumping the USB connection. The wizard gets up to a point and keeps saying no connection. I go back to the laptop and check with the sync and it shows disconnected???

Try a different USB cable, make sure you have firm connections, then touch nothing until flash is complete or error message shows - don't even breathe on it, let alone move it an inch! I think the connection port is fragile or unreliable.

My Tilt has the same issue with my real PC and my Virtual Machine on my Mac (via Parallels). It just won't flash reliably.
I now flash from the MicroSD card. No problems at all doing that. Much faster too.

HardSPL loaded prior to 'imaging'?

I finally did it. Alls I had to do was uninstall active sync then reinstall it. Now when I try to restore via my storage car and sprite backup it tells me that "this back up file was not made on this device or operating system. Restoring from this file may cause significant problems. Do you wish too continue?" Not sure what to do. Anyone?

Yeah . . . you don't want to restore a backup from one ROM onto a new different ROM - it will make a big mess.
If you didn't sync your data with your PC before you flashed this new ROM, I would flash back to the original ROM and then restore your backup, do a sync to your PC, also copy \My Documents to your storage card, and also run dotFred's PIMBackup - you can use that to restore data from one ROM to another.
All of this has been discussed on the forums here before, so I would also suggest you do a lot more reading before embarking on ambitious but potentially dangerous things like flashing a new ROM as you are doing.

TY, for the heads up. I did do the sync. So contacts and such will be ok. Just have to redo my tweaks. Thanks. again for the advice.

Hi there... I already:-
1. Format my HTC HD7 sdCard - Done
2. Flash My HTC - Done
3. Change my OS from Windows 7 32bit to 64bit, vice versa - done.
4. Used the correct usb cable - Checked & Done
5. Soft Reset and Hard Reset the phone - Done
6. Restore to factory setting - Done
7. Remove and install ZUNE - Done
All has been done. But still failure..

anti virus? what are you using?

I'm not using any antivirus. and my pc is only used by me. quite tough for me to find the solution. the phone completely work with zune past few month. but now.. everything goes fakap. I was able to install any apps from market place without problem.. (which means, the sistem or the sdcard is good) but unable to be detected by ZUNE software.

only thing i can think of from here on is to completely wipe all memory of the phone from your pc and try again. in zune on the desktop > settings (top rightish) > phone tab > "forget this phone".
then connect the phone to the PC and start up device manager (start, type it into search). you should see your phone come up there. if it doesn't, try a different usb port. if it does, right click on it and uninstall. when uninstalling also delete the driver itself (should be a checkbox asking).
then restart PC and try to sync again.
if this doesn't work... my final 2 suggestions are wait till the update, or claim under warranty for a new device.

Hi there,
Thanks so much on your help and troubleshoot. I already followed your instruction. unfortunately still got the problem.
Here's some print screen for you.

[Q] Total Noob in Need of Lots of Help :(

I just got my SNS yesterday and it's my first android phone (was previously using an LG cookie) First thing I did was try to root it, and I seemingly succeeded, or so I thought. It looks like it's rooted and the superuser apps there but I can't install apps using any of the guides I find or even update to 2.3.2 (keep getting and error 7 msg). When I try to install using APKInstaller it tells me it can't find the device, which I think is the problem.
I think the problem is that someway or another windows 7 64 bit stopped recognizing my phone as a Nexus S and now recognizes it as a portable device in device manager (There's also an Android Phone, with an Android Composite ADB interface) I used the SDK to install all the updates available including the google usb driver rev. 4. I tried updating the Portable device driver using the google usb driver but windows keeps it as a WPD Filesystem Volume Driver. Also I noticed when I checked to see if adb gave me a serial number for the phone using the cmd prompt commands in the rooting guides it comes up blank.
I used usbdeview to delete everything seemingly related to Android, but everytime I reconnect the phone it, installs the drivers for the portable device.
I need help to make windows recognize the phone as a nexus s again so I can update and install apps and games etc. If anybody out there can help i'll really appreciate it. Explain the steps to me as if you were talking to a child, leaving nothing out plz. Thanks for any assistance.
I live outside the US (no android market) and would hate to think I messed up and expense phone purchase in just one day

Not quite sure where to start. But my intuition tells me its the Windows 7 64-bit and drivers that's not playing along. You might want to google if other users are having trouble with W7 64-bit with Android drivers. Otherwise, find another computer and repeat the steps. If not, flash a custom ROM to see if that eliminates the problem. You haven't damaged your phone. Don't worry.

just install directly from android market website
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

I assume you mean instal the update from the market (which I can't do because I don't have wifi)?
I managed to get the adb to list a device number after I installed java x32 & x64 bit. I still can't install apps or get the update to work, but I'll try unrooting and then rerooting my phone as see how that goes.
Oh, I haven't done the initial sign into gmail thing yet in case that makes any difference
Edit: god I feel stupid. I didn't realize that I had to upgrade from 2.3 to 2.3.1 and then to 2.3.2. I did that an everything upgrade without any problems. Now just got to figure out how to install apk's and I'm golden
Edit 2: Ok, I figured everything out and now i'm up to date with updates and I can install apps and games. Oh Happy Day Thx for all the help

Help with sync configuration

i just buy wp7 yesterday, i was no idea how to sync it to the pc.
i heard that you need zune to sync with it like itunes. i'm installed it once, but it cannot update and say 'connection error, restart software'.
so i reinstalled again, but stuck at 100%.
a lot in the internet say that their os was XP of vista, and no windows 7 (and i'm using w7).
please, share with me how things are working here. thanks

i was able to sync and I have windows 7.
-make sure ZUNE is up to date
-you may get better results using the USB cable that came with the phone
-if you have more than one, try them all.
-you may get better results using the USB ports on the back of the PC

Have ya configured your phone already, a Live account and all that jazz ?
I have Windows 7, so that is not your problem... make sure your Zune is workling properly and if needed download a new version and reinstall it. Syncing Zune and WP7 is a pretty straight forward thing.

i'm already did that, it's just now i am trying to "reinstall" zune because it cannot update my windows phone 7 (version with no copy-cut-paste)
my zune installer is "downloading update at 100%" and stuck, no solution on the internet. some say to go back to xp (LOL)
for sync-ing my wp is no problem because it is straight forward

Like I said, I have Windows 7 x64 and the system runs great and no problems with Zune.
In you Windows try and create a new use with admin rights and try and install Zune in that user area, or use System Restore to roll back to a few days back... telling you to format and reinstall Windows 7 should be a last resort.

What "update" are you trying to install?

nothing, i'm trying to install, but the installer say updating, maybe i got old version package.
new problem here: i'm already download new package for installation, and i stuck at this point "preparing you computer, installing the zune sofware", so i think i have to contact zune for this problem
update: i just got the solution form help forum, apparently he say "just hit spacebar", and it work, feel like slap the software to wake up.
but now the software doesn't installed properly, no shortcut in the desktop

How long have you had that current installation of you Windows 7 ?
It might be a problem with your OS and not Zune... like I said, create a new user with admin right and install from there, Restore System to an older date.
If all fails, might be time for a fresh Windows 7 install.

Accessories, System Tools and you should have System Restore there. Try and restore to an older point in time, see if that helps.
When all else fails... format c:

system restore didn't have any effect at all. format is the only option left, i give up on this software.
i just don't want to waste anymore time, i'll use wp7 connector for mac instead.
thank you very much for everyone here for spending time to answer me. operator may closed this post in peace.

[Q] Why can I no longer mount usb

I have erased the contents of the phones internal USB storage. Now I notice that I cant mount to my PC.
Anybody know what happening or had same problem

Have you already tried formatting with CWM?
Perhaps this thread contains some useful information for you.

I know this is a long shot but go to your dialer and input *#*#8778#*#* and make sure it looks like this pic. I fool with QPST and other things and sometimes forget to change the settings back to PDA and it will not mount. Long shot but what the hey...

Typed it in and got nothing. Using the android dialler when I pressed the last * the dialer cleared and did nothing.
Just installed the SDK so I could use (hopefully) ADB. When trying to install the Google driver rev4 windows says that rev 4 is no better than the one currently installed.
Also when I connect to the PC it says that the USB device is not recognised either.
I reckon my next thing to try flashing a new Rom via ROM manager.

well that didnt work in fact it has got considerably worse. I used ROM manager to download and install a new rom but didnt install the Gapps how daft do I feel now cos all I got is version of Blandroid running with no Android Market access to download ROM Manager.
I can access my WiFi network so I thought I would simply visit XDA via the mobile browser and download a fresh version of CM7 and then re-flash via ClockworkMod . However all I get is download fail error. I guess it doesn't know where to save the file.
So to recapp I have the following
a Nexus S (running Blandroid ROM)
a Win XP laptop that does not recognise my Nexus S (therefore cant install the Google driver to use ADB)
The Nexus S recovery is ClockworkMod and accessible.
I cannot accept that it is bricked (not just yet anyway)
I have another Laptop with Ubuntu installed. Will this help me in anyway to find a fix. I am not that experienced in Linux unfortunately.

i have the same problem. only thing you can try is.
pull out battery. let something metal touch the usb conecter .conecting the metal to a unload source(for static electricity.)
wait couple of hours,and try again.
if that didnt work.
2
open your nexus.
unplug all cables and screws from the main board.
again touch the usb conecter with something metal that has a ground source.
and try again.
the last step worked for me the 1st time pluging it in after i did that.
after that. usb didnt work again.
it probably has to do something with the usb phone charger and static electricity.
but i havent tested it.

will give that a try when I have a bit more time.
In the meantime I have been setting up ADB on my other laptop running Ubuntu 11.04. But unfortunately the Nexus S didnt register on the OS either. I thought you didnt need additional drivers for Linux only windows! I am really puzzled now as I thought the Linux option would have allowed me to flash a different ROM other than Blandroid (which isnt bad its just I dont have the Gapps installed)

you still have wifi/3G and CWM or bloothoot?
download the Gapps zip. put it on dropbox or any hosting site.download it trough your mobile browser and flash it trug CWM.
or use blutethoot to download it.
might be a short fix.until you get USB to work.
(this is how i do it cuz my usb doesnt work.)

I did try that but for some reason after stating that the download had started - Download Unsuccessful was displayed in the notification area. As useual I open a door only to find a brick wall on the other side.
In the meantime I am back with my HTC Hero.
Thanks for helping anyway!

try difrent download solutuins.
seeing you have HTC here.why not tranver your zip trug your hero to your Ns?(with bluethoot)

boy, i hope you haven't started tearing your phone apart yet...
since you still have access to cwm: try to format your sdcard with it. looks like you haven't done that yet.

I would try to uninstall all drivers and associated programs on your PC. Then reinstall the drivers. Windows can be very finicky as you know. Also try PDANET drivers.

Same PC with dual boot? Yeah, try another cord and a another PC. The fact that you plugged it in and it's recognized in some way in the tray says something is fubar. I just don't know if it is the phone though. Best of luck.

Nah, different laptop and different cable. Hope that it charges OK. Gonna have to get a WiFi file transfer app working to move files to and from.

glad to help out :3
there are allot of people that have this USB isue and its HW NS related. nothing we actually can do about it.plus it also happens after changing kernels and roms(i supose) overclocking might be 1 of the reasons thus the voltages not being original.
btw,sorry for my half assed english x3

Having the same issue. I tried that, no such luck.
My computer *did* connect at one point though... couldn't mount USB storage (wasn't prompted) but it did ask for a driver, and currently has a Samsug USB one installed. It won't accept the SDK driver (not 64-bit capable? Or NS4G? Idk...)
