Computer Can't Detect my HTC Fuze

I have a windows vista 64 bit. and I've installed WMDC and my computer just won't recognize the device. It sure see's it, but it says that its an "unknown device" and then nothing happens. Any solutions?

is there a chance that your x64 Vista doesn't have all drivers? try using windows update.
if this didn't work, i'd back everything up on my device, go to Start/Control Panel/Device Manager and delete whatever it identified. restart your PC and hard-reset your fuze and try again.
oh and by the way, If i were you, i'd use Windows 7 Build 7077 instead of Vista x64

I tried everything listed above, still nothing, I can't believe two Windows based operating systems can't just hook up without problems. Why is this happening?

I have the same problem with my diamond. Just not possible to sync, so I have to use bluetooth.

It sucks though, I didn't get Bluetooth for this computer thinking I wouldn't need it. So I avoided the extra charge, but now it's coming back to bite me. But technically I still shouldn't need it if this thing would work.

Is there some sort of bluetooth adapter I can get so I can actually use bluetooth with my laptop? Or does it have to be built in?

If a ROM is replcaed and an OS is replaced, and it stil doesn't work, I would only guess it's a hardware problem.. which seems kinda odd.

I had this problem too. I found out that it was actually the USB Cable that was faulty. If you have another device with mini USB that you can try and see if the same result happens with the same USB cable.

The USB change actually worked, but it didn't sync, it opened as a mass storage device, and the WMDC didn't see it...

WMDC doesn't create a new partnership on Windows 7 [SOLVED]

Hello,
After I created a new install of Windows 7, I'm not able to sync my Touch Pro.
If I boot on my previous Windows 7 installation (I kept it on the same computer), sync is OK.
I uninstalled (and reinstalled) many times WMDC, "PocketPC USB sync" and "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" drivers.
There is some trouble : obviously WMDC doesn't recognize my device.
Both "USB to PC" modes are not able to start WMDC.
Any help?

If you have the Pro version, you should be able to run a virtualized instance of XP, and therefore set it up under as ActiveSync in XP. That is with the official release from what we trained on, 22nd is that date... This allows ANY program to run that was supported by XP 100%

I'm using Windows 7 on my laptop and PC, sync with TP no problem at all. I've done installation on few computers too and they are all good. Things that you might check:
- Check your USB Sync cables and/or your USB port, just to make sure
- Open Windows Mobile Device Center and delete all partnership, then reconnect back
- If possible, try to change your TP ID, so that Windows recognize different device.
Hope it helps.

To supratt93 :
Good idea I'm going to try this
To u2pop :
- I've 2 Win7 installed with a boot selector. Sync works with the forst one and not with the other one, so the cables and USB ports are OK.
- I have never been able to create a partnership. Win7 installed the drivers and WMDC never started. Something goes wrong with the installation of the drivers
- Sometimes I receive a message telling me about a problem with installed drivers (nothing about which device is concerned)

I solved my problem today:
After a reinstallation of the last chipset drivers of my Asus P5k motherboard and a reboot, WMDC started and allowed me to sync my Touch Pro.
I hope that will help someone!

I know that this is solved, however I had the same problem.
I reinstalled WMDC, etc.
In the end a simple swap of the usb port that the USB cable was plugged into and it solved the problem.

[Q] Phone wont be recognized by computer

My Samsung Intercept wont connect to my computer, everytime I plug it in, I get USB device not recognized, how can I get it to be recognized? Im running android 2.2.1, and my computer is running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit

I tried posting a link but the spam prevention police apparently wont let me post links until I have 8 posts. So I'll just quote:
First I tried to use Win 7′s XP mode, which was a total failure. The Windows stock Virtual PC cannot control any devices, it just reads them as belonging to the real computer. After a lot of searching I found the open source Oracle Virtual Box, which is Windows Virtual PC on crack. With Virtual Box, you can mount any number of operating systems to play around with. As a bonus it has the capability to see external devices as its own. All you need is an install disk for your operating system of choice. I had gotten the Intercept to work with both XP and 7 32 bit, so I chose to install a Win 7 32 virtual machine.
For all the specifics on how to install a virtual operating system in Virtual Box, read the user manual. Its large and technical, but skimming the first two chapters should tell you all you need to know to get started. The short version, you set up a partition for your virtual machine, you then “boot” the virtual machine with the install disk of your operating system of choice. You then go through all the normal installation steps, and bingo-bango you now have a virtual copy of XP/7/whatever.
Here is where things get hazy. I was under the impression that the virtual machine would be where I would see the phone. However for mysterious reasons, suddenly the phone now gives me the option to mount and my main Windows 7 64 has no problem letting me into the phones drive!
I don’t know why. I can close the virtual machine and still have access when I plug in. I wish I knew what the heck was going on and how a virtual 32 bit 7 convinced a real 64 bit 7 that the Intercept is OK, but I do not. All I know is that Virtual Box somehow worked for me, perhaps it can work for you. Other than that Virtual Box is a nifty tool I should have had long ago. Good luck!
UPDATE: I wrote this a couple months ago and while it did work, I have a funny feeling that its all just pure luck as to if Windows will bother to recognize the phone. I have computers it works fine on and some that refuse to see the phone no matter what I do. The whole key is to just keep trying, something will work eventually. If all else fails get an app like SwiFTP and move on with your life.

Thank you very much for this information, I will get to trying the Virtual Box and the SwiFTP, thank you again.

The above information you gave still didnt work :/, do you or anyone else know what I could do to fix?

Hello, I wanted to say that the whole process for the computer to see the Samsung Intercept is buggy to say the least. I have a good knowledge base of computers as I work as a Desktop Support technician for the past 10 years. I read many posts and replies. None seem to be concrete on a resolution. I tried the usual methods. I downloaded the Samsung SWUpdate+Patch. I downloaded the Sprint USB Modem drivers from Samsung's Web site. I also downloaded the custom files for the Kernel and custom recovery. The first thing I tried on all four of my computers was to install the Samsung USB Modem drivers. The second thing I did was to install the SWUpate+Patch software. My first test computer was a Compaq D500 desktop. Windows XP-SP3 with USB 1.0 ports and a USB 2.0. I placed my phone in USB Debugguing Mode. I then powered off my Phone. I held down the three magic keys to get the phone in "Download" mode. I checked Add/Remove Programs both programs were installed- Samsung USB Modem Driver and the SWUpdate. I first opened the Samsung SWUpdate program. I followed the onscreen instructions of the Samsung program. The program could not communicate with the phone. Bottom right corner of the program said disconneted. I tried chaning the Port Settings in the program to COM1, COM2, etc. All said disconnected. I tried opening the Samsung program several times. Restarting the phone, unplugging the battery etc. I also tried using a different USB cable besides the one that came with the phone. No communication. I tried the same process on another PC which had Win7Pro 32Bit SP1. Almost same results, but I had the computer install these three devices when I opened the Samsung program and connected my phone:Android UMS, S3C6410 Android ADB, CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM) I thought I was good. Status still Disconnected. I restarted the computer tried the whole process again. This time the computer gave me three messages of "Device not Recognized." So I tried a few more different was to get the drivers into Device Manager nothing worked. I even tried that PDA2net app that app wouldn't see the phone wither. Then I looked into the PDA2net directory and saw some drivers .INFs that I thought might work.. I would get a little farther, but then the driver seemed to install and partially recognize the devices, but then a message said that it could start "Error 10" So I tried another computer. Windows 7-64bit. I knew this was going to be a long shot..and it was.. Samsung USB Modem Driver not supported on this version of Windows. So I tried my work computer Win7Enterprise 32Bit. Same issues Device not recognized three or four times. I tried the two USB cables for my phone the OEM one and Aftermarket. No luck. So I had my old trusty Dell D600 laptop. WinXP-SP3 32bit USB 1.0. I installed the Samsung USB Modem driver then the Samsung SWUpate app. I got my Recover.tar file dropped into the Bin dir. I opened the Samsung SWUpdate app and holy **** the damn program was able to connect to my phone I couldn't believe it.. I wanted to take a screen shot of it working just so I could make sure it wasn't B.S. I used my laptop with an Aftermarket USB Cable. I'm not sure if it's a Data USB cable or just a charging cable. I don't think there is two different cables as I've read many times on different fourms. I'm not sure why my laptop works with the phone. When my phone did finally connect it connected on COM3. So maybe it's a port setting/IRQ. I also turned off my Firewall each time just incase it was blocking communication.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to reply. I will try to help in any way possible. I wanted to say thanks to XDA Forum and to Super-6-1 on YouTube..you guys Helped Me more than you know.!!!!!

[Q] cant connect TF to pc in no way

hi.
i have a realy annoying problem.
i cant connect my device to computer. i tried every way.
just plugging the tf to pc. no success.
enabling usb debugging. no success.
by apx. "" ""
i cant even access recovery.
i got my tf today from lab. they replaced my mobo.
and now when itry to access recovery it's just giving me a big green android with a ! inside.
so i thought. is it possible that the problem is with my usb cable?
and that i'll have to buy a new one just to confirm it?

1.) What are your computer's specifications? (OS, hardware, etc.)
2.) When the Transformer is booted into Android and you connect the USB cale from the tablet to your computer, does your computer make any sort of indication that a new device has been plugged in? (In Windows, for example, you'll get the new hardware sound.)

Hi! I have any problem tooi cant connect my transformer to PC.
I have C4Q 9550 CPU 8GB RAM Gigabyte E45P MotherBoard Windows & ult x64
When i connect my device,i have a new "hardware sound" and see baloon unknow device or USB cant recognize!What is a problem?Help!!!

Try different USB slot, Try different cable (if you can get one). Try different PC with the same OS (Win7 64-bit).
Try to reinstall Asus Sync, and USB drivers.
If it won't work after you have tried all of these, then I have no idea.
My TF works for me out of the box.

Windows 7 would recognize the TF as a Media device and there in lies the problem. You would have to force the Asus Drivers to take precedence and that is the problem. I am also told you would need the '.Net' framework installed and configured properly - as I had installed this long ago I am not sure whether this is required or not as on my PC I did not face problems due to lack of '.Net'.
On Windows XP I was required to install Windows Media Player 11 and then do some more modifications etc and then install PC Sync software from Asus.
I now have my Windows 7 Ultimate, 64bit working with the TF.
When you connect your Tablet using the Charger cable, does your Tablet say something like 'Searching for PC Sync Software on PC' in the notification area?
Only if it does the TF would even be trying to communicate with the PC - otherwise it would not even be doing that.
I connected my TF to my Windows machine with the sole purpose of rooting the device and I did succeed in doing that.

So, I've been here before.

My question is, what would you do in my situation?
My Xoom connected to my computer (HP Pavilion dv6000) (Windows Vista) once before in past times. It will not connect anymore, I have done everything possible that people have said to do. Still in the same situation.
I connected it to my mothers Toshiba Satellite U505-S2950 (Windows 7)after installing Moto software, and its working perfectly.
Should I re-install Windows/Re-set to default? I've tried everything, from installing drivers, to changing permissions, to installing adb, blah blah blah.
I just recently found DropBox which I am using now, until I can figure out exactly what to do with my HP.
Anyone? TBH: I don't want to use my moms laptop every time I want to transfer a movie to my Xoom, rather it be mine.

So I guess you are using your original Xoom USB cable, and have tried different USB ports (like the ones on the back if you have a tower), you tried with debugging on and off, you've tried with the USB plugged into the Xoom 1st and then into the computer as well as the other way around...do you have Windows Media Player (9?) installed on your pc? It seems it needs it to connect....

Its not a solution to USB woes as I reckon I am in the same position with XP Windows machines, but an alternative.
Why not run a FTP Server on either your Laptop or your Xoom....
I doubt its as fast as USB transfer but may be quicker than Dropbox (definitely quicker for me in the UK with cruddy upload speeds !!!)
I use FTPServ on the PC and SwiFTP on the Xoom as the FTP Server - I just switch each one on when needed depending on which copy method I feel like using
I use Total Commander for the FTP Client on the Xoom.

Interesting idea...

This I suppose could be seen to be quite drastic, but it will fix 99.9% of all USB related issues across windows OS's

>Right click My computer and manage, you are using Vista? So will probably need to run as admin.
>Go to device management and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
>Ok delete the lot
>Yup delete the lot
What this means is that it should now prompt you to reinstall the drivers for any USB device plugged in to the PC, yes you may find that you have to unplug and replug in your keyboard and mouse to re-install the drivers for those devices. But it should also re-install the Motorola Xoom drivers also.
At the end of the days its quicker to try this than re-install Windows
Unfortunately not every USB Root Hub or Host controller displays what it actually is, some do but that's a case of right clicking each one to see what it is. If for example it states that its a mouse then perhaps don't delete that one but hopefully you get my drift.
