So let me start by saying I have been researching these forums for the last 8 hours trying to following instructions on getting my phone to connect to my computer and with no luck, hoping someone out there can please help me step by step in correcting my problem.
1)I flashed DC's Rom, then flashed the most current radio, then flashed the most current Wimax.
2)I noticed that when I connect my phone to the computer, it says device is not recognizable. The phone charges but does cannot be seen by the computer as a disk drive (I'm trying to RUU to stock but the comp. will not see my phone and I've already tried running RUU but it also is having probs seeing the phone).
3)I've read Calculin's instructions in fixing the SD Card and USB as close as possible but also no luck. I've downloaded Android-SDK Tools and ran CMD with the Instructions saying type in "fastboot oem boot", from there, thats where I get stuck, it just says "waiting on device". Not sure where I go from there, I'm in Reboot mode where it has Fastboot on my evo screen.
Any help would be much appreciated, I'm just so frustrated and I'm trying to get back to square one.
Unplug your phone and restart it, then plug it back in. I had to do this 3 times before it started working again. Other than that, you might just need to download the new drivers.
And you posted in the wrong section.
Sorry about posting in the wrong section, what drivers should I install, are you talking about the new HTC Sync Files or something else? Can you point in the direction to get these files?
okay, I think I'm getting close, I have a box thats popping up now thats trying to located the Device Driver the phone. It says "Failed" next to the line "MY HTC" Where can I download the necessary drivers for this phone?

You should be able to get the proper drivers from either Sprint or HTC's web site. There are links on both sites. Also, when you install / reinstall the sync drivers make sure anti-virus is disabled. If the situation continues and you've tried everything else other folks suggested look at program permissions in your anti-virus program. I was having something similar and CA anti-virus was not letting the program start-up. I had to toggle it to "allow".
Good Luck.
ok, trying to install one-click root on my Epic, i have up-to-date drivers installed, USB debugging is checked, my computer gives me the option to mount and it reads my device. when I go to the run.bat command screen, I keep getting the message 'cannot locate device, unplug USB, re-plug and press enter.' when I do that I get 'aborting script, phone still not connected' message. can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me what I'm missing, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try to do a battery pull on the phone and try that. If that does not work, do a battery pull and reset your computer and see if that helps.
Not sure what OS you are running but the best thing is to do on Win XP.

Can you tell us the complete verbage of the error? I ran into a problem because I did not LITTERALLY UNZIP the rar file before running it. Kept saying the phone was not connected..but when I looked closer it was failing because the bat file was trying to run a piece of the program and for some reason it was failing on it. COMPLETELY AND LITTERALLY unzipped the rar to my computer and then ran it (making sure the phone was connected and in usb debug mode) and was rooted in a matter of minutes. hope this helped a little... good luck

Try plugging the Epic into a mobo usb port.

Your computer gives you an option to mount? If you have ADB debug enabled you should see something pop up in your device manager, but I'm not so sure you should get any kind of mounting pop-up.
Make sure you have all of the correct drivers installed for your OS, and try it again running each command seperately from the batch file. Then post here which command is coming back unsuccsessful so I can pinpoint the problem better.

I am having the same problem now for an hour or so. Tried everything I can think of , tried the all in one clockwork , used a different cable....i can hear my computer make that sound when I plug the phone in , and also when I unplug it. Just trying to get clockwork on here , ive read and read and read all the threads I can find. Got good drivers , windows xp. Rebooted laptop and phone at least 20 times ...dont know what else to try

Look in your device manager on your pc while your phone is connected with usb debugging and make sure there is no question mark next to Android ADB device. It needs to recognize this driver for it to connect.
HI
Hi i had that same issue an i went to the samsung official website becaue my phone can't connect to my pc i couldn't see my sd card pop up so the guy say my phone was defective so im thinking you have the same issue as me but samsung is fixing my phone now for free an free shipping i hope you still have warranty on your epic an they flashing a new rom an software on it for me they say to fix gps an wifi issues i had too
Got it to work, it was a driver issue apparently. Downloaded drivers again, completely removed old drivers. Reboot PC, make sure phone isnt connected yet. After reboot, install drivers, reboot again. I also had my phone turned off this whole time. When PC came back up , turn phone back on, connect using one of the main USB ports, not one in the front or anything. You should see windows detect and install the software. Then I ran the all in one clockwork , and here I am now fully rooted, syndicate rom , so much better than stock...hope you get it working! I definitely almost gave up a few times

Hi everyone!
I just had a problem with my android phone. It is rooted, and I tried to downgrade my GB 2.3.6 to 2.3.5. I followed a certain instructions about this, using a Flash Tool with a scatter-file Europe_2.3.5.txt. After I downloaded it, my phone won't open now. I'm afraid I hardly bricked it.
It won't open, won't show if it's charging (but i'm pretty sure it is), can't be booted to recovery mode or download mode, can't be detected by PC when I connect it to the USB. No response at all. Please, if there are any people who can help me out there, help me. I'm starting to panic about it.

hello,
I hope someone can help me with my AT&T LG Optimus Pro G phone, which I have royally screwed up.
I was experimenting with the cyogen mod and after installation I installed the freegee app and once the cwm recovery was installed, I decided to go into the recovery by holding down up volume and power button.
Once I was in recovery for CWM i couldn't exit out, and the phone constantly booted into recovery after every reboot, even if i took out the battery, and powered it on.
I tried reflashing the cynogen mod through the sd card, and even though I would get success message the phone would still reboot into the cwm recovery.
I started doing research on the internet and i found file exitrecovery.zip that could be used to possibly get the phone out of the cwm recovery.
After installing exitrecovery.zip, I rebooted the phone, and now I have complete black screen. There are no light, no hints the phone is even turning on, and I can't get into recovery( or at least I can't tell). The only thing now is that when i connect the phone to the computer the window tries to install drivers for the device, and eventually prompts to insert a CD for LG drivers. I already have LGUnitedMobileDriver v.3.10.1 connection drivers installed from their website.
Please help, I am really stuck here..... and have no clue what to do. I am fairly new with rooting and modding, and I am extremely miserable.
The phone is still under warranty from LG. Anyone if all else fails, and since the phone has no screen or lights, whether they would replace it?
Attaching the exitrecovery.zip that I used.
sobbing....

hi, thanks for your reply. Again I very much new to the rooting and android OS tinkering, and nowhere close to an experienced user.
I tried to use google with your information in regards to how to use flow ROM with expansion.exe, but did not get any leads.
I would appreciate if you could elaborate more on this process.
When my phone is connect to the computer via usb is is constantly trying to install drivers. I had already installed LG usb connection drivers in the past and it was successful. It almost seems it tries to install driver yet fails after receiving no input from the phone, and then request LG CD with drivers.

Try to find driver on the web-site of producer. Set them. Overload a vehicle in Bootloader. In the controller of devices on компе must be determined your device. Then on a computer start sewing - .EXE.
Did you get this problem resolved? I have the exact problem with the exact phone!!!
thank you very much
So you probably did something wrong trying to get a custom recovery or root on your FNF Ifive Mini 4s. Well I did too, that's why I'm writing this
WARNING: This will remove ALL files from your tablet.
Just follow these steps and your tablet should be back on track soon!
So first you have to download FNF Ifive's official upgrade tool which can be found here
Press on the latest one, which as of April 2 is called ifive_mini_4S_US_1.0.6_20170330 Upgrade Tool&Firmware.
Now download both files in the onedrive folder. One is the recovery tool and the other is the latest firmware.
Extract both to a folder of your choosing.
Enter the folder called Driver and run Driverinstall.exe as admin.
Press uninstall driver, press ok and press install driver.
Go back to the main folder and run FactoryTool.exe as admin.
Turn off your tablet.
Enter loadermode on your tablet by connecting it to your computer with the included cable and pressing the powerbutton and Vol-.
Click on "Firmware" in the FactoryTool.
Locate the .img file you downloaded and extracted.
Check the box called "Restore".
Click on "Run" and wait for it to say success.
After it says success you should disconnect the tablet from your computer and just wait for it to boot. This will take a few minutes.
Success! You have now fixed your bootloop and updated to the latest firmware if you did not have it already!
If you had any problems I will be happy to help you
Error
Thanks for your help.
I tried it but it never end with "success". It says: "Wait for loader fail".
I don't know what I don't have to do.

That is probably because you are doing something wrong when entering loadermode or because you forgot to first uninstall the driver and then install it. When entering loadermode you must make sure the tablet is connected to the pc with the application open and running. Then you turn it off, and enter loadermode by pressing the power button and volume down simultaneously.
Hope this helps
Worked!!
Many thanks.
I manage to get the tablet working. I tried many times and I finally get it to work.
Sry for my bad English.

By using this tutorial.
Hi,
I successfully upgraded the firmware, it says Build Number ifive_mini_4S_1.0.8-W in my settings but my device still doesn't work properly. The message "Unfortunately Google Play Store/services has stopped" pops up frequently and the boot screen sometimes shows up out off nowhere closing all my apps and locking the device. I also can't open the Play Store at all. I always get the "Unfortunately Google Play Store has stopped" message.
Once I rebooted the device I got a bootloop but it stopped after a while and now my Wi-Fi does not work anymore. I can turn it on but it doesn't find any networks and turns itself off after a few seconds.
I read that some models are just straight up broken. The serial number of my device is P1QRMW1HAR. I bought it a year ago or so and I had problems with bootloops all the time so I barely used the device and hoped for a firmware upgrade that would fix everything. Now my patience is about to run out and I really hope that someone knows how to fix this stupid China device...
