Wondering if someone might be able to help me out. When i switch ROMs i loose the ability to choose the connection type i want when i plug into a USB (ie. charge, disc, sync, etc.). My phone starts charging right away, but i don't have the option to choose.
USB debugging is checked, Ask Me in Connect to PC is checked but i don't see the option to choose anywhere and it doesn't pop up when i connect via USB.
Strange thing is, when i revert to a Coredroid back-up, the option is there, but when i flash any other ROM that option is no longer there.
Any suggestions? Help would be appreciated. Thanks much.

Non-sense (hehe) roms will not give you those options (ie cm7,miui) Coredroid, android revolution etc are sense based and give you those extra abilities. The reason for this is it calls out the HTC drivers on both the phone and the pc. non-sense roms wont be able to.
Thanks for the quick reply Darunion. The new ROM i flashed is Bindroid (a sense ROM), so it should recognize, shouldn't it?
So it doesnt show up in your notifications when you pull the menu down that its "usb charging" if it does you should be able to click that to force the menu choices up. Ive been away from sense for a while so im a bit rusty :/

No notifications are there...at least no "charging" notification allowing me to choose. And nothing pops up when i connect via usb.
while its plugged in have you tried toggling usb debugging off and then back on again. sometimes this will fix the issue.
Yep...i have. Even gone so far as removing all HTC from my PC & reloaded. Still nothing. Strange thing is that this has happened when trying to flash (2) different Sense ROMs. BUT...if i restore the CD Rom...it's there again.
were the other roms you loaded all running sense 3.0 or 3.5? Ive seen some issues with 3.5 and usb cords and connection options not appearing. Just trying to find the common denominator in this.
Sense 3.5. Yeah, i've read some of those too in my "google search". People using non-inspire usb cords, etc. I'm using the inspire usb.
ive never actually used sense 3.5 so i have no idea where to start on that. sorry i wasnt able to help. hope someone has some helpful info
Think i may have figured it out...at least it's got to be a couple things. Download a latest "WIPE tool"...and tried w/o restoring anything and it connects.
So...it's either using the latest Wipe Tool...or something in my restore settings thats causing the issue. At least i know that it's working.
Thanks for your assistance anyway Darunion! Merry Xmas!

Word to the wise. Don't restore any system settings. Never a good idea. After flashing change all your custom settings one by one. Don't use anything to restore them

I had the same issue, and it was in the rom. I have used every rom out here, and some have the options and some dont.
I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong section
Hey there everyone. I have a My Touch Q LG-C800. I believe that I might have bricked my phone but I was on a couple different web sites stating that if you can still factory reset your android phone you should be alright.
So let me explain how it happened.. First I rooted my My Touch Q, everything was running perfectly then I thought I wanted to do more since I thought woah! rooting was so easy and I used "SuperOneClickv2.3.3" to root my phone, so it was really easy.. lol but ya then I started to use "Titanium Backup" since I really hated having all those other stocked apps on your phone, figured it could help boost the speed of my slowww My Touch Q. Opened up Titanium Backup and went to the system apps, I first stored the apps that I thought I still might need to my micro sd card, then after finished backing up those apps, I then uninstalled the apps that I found was unneeded. After I finished backing up and uninstalling all the unneeded apps I figured that hey! I backed everything up and I should be perfectly fine to do anything else now!! So I went to the market (Play) and downloaded "Rom manager"..
So then I downloaded rom manager and it had and option to find a rom online and I chose the rom with the most download cause I thought it should be the best choice to make. I click on it and I forgot what it was called (I connected my phone to my laptop and am able to get the phone into usb storage mode, microsdcard/clockworkmod/download/download.cyanogenmod.com/get/update-cm-7.1.0-Z71-signed.zip and microsdcard/clockworkmod/download/download2.clockworkmod.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip-- I'm not too sure what this means but it could be of help). then after clicking on the rom to download it then gave me a lists of versions to download I of course chose the stable version. (sucks that I can't remember what rom I actually download..) after I downloaded it it told me to back up my rom.. so I thought it'd back up everything from the phone. (I know I should have done my research before proceeding..) after backing up the phone.. it just did like a factory reset on my phone.. and I mean that was fine but the main problem is that after it had the basic tips tutorial and all that jazz and intro to stuff for the phone, I chose to skip all that stuff because I've restored my phone plenty of times.
But this time was different I clicked next and after that it wouldn't let me go to my phones like "home" and when I clicked the home button it download go to the home screen. Like the notification is still there just not that bottom part, it's just black there and I can't click anything there. Although I can drag the notification bar down and stuff. and lock screen works fine.
So I think my phones still not bricked.. but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get the "default launcher" back.. on to the phone because I remember I had uninstalled it from my phone because I was using a different launcher "adw launcher or adw freak launcher, one of the two". I btw did back the default launcher with Titanium Backup, the default launcher is "com.lge.launcher-380e147c617387bc38cabec97baa8437.apk.gz"
If there is anyone out there that could possibly help me fix my phone that would be very much appropriated My girl friend had bought me this very phone for me because I have been using the gravity t for sooooo long lol and it hasn't been working well the touch screen it had had totally mess up. Anyways have a wonderful night everyone!
Go to google market on a pc search for launcher like adw and install .It should install on your phone even thou your on a pc (make sure phone is on) then click home button on phone adw should start. Then you can reinstall default launcher from tb. Not sure if this will work but worth a try.

He has no launcher simple so the phone does not have a homescreen until he installs a launcher somehow. I just offered one way to get one installed when he had no access to play on his phone. There are lots of other more complicated ways but was hoping to make it easy for him.

Seeing as you seem to have used SuperOneClick, you must have enabled USB Debugging, which means you can use ADB. Connect your phone via USB to your computer (have it switched on at the time) and open a command prompt in a folder with adb.exe and the APK for some launcher. Run the following command then:
Code:
adb install launcher.apk
(assuming the launcher is named launcher.apk; change the command to reflect the real name of the APK).
After it says it has finished installing, press home and the launcher should hopefully load.
Try what was suggested above with the Play Store and see if that works, but if it doesn't, this will.
Or else make a flashable zip file with any launcher .. reboot recovery flash it..
Thanks will try it try it out.

How would I be able to access the file that I'm downloading from the market on pc? Would I have to connect to the internet and sign into my gmail account on my phone? If so that's not possible because I can't go anywhere, the bottom part under the notification bar is all blank after the android's like introduction thing. And I won't be able to connect to the internet because I can't even go into my phones control panel? or what ever to find my home wireless network and enter my password

Hmm by boot do you mean screen turns on and the intro starting and setting up screen starting up after the video? Then yes it does in fact boot up. Just the middle screen isn't functional because I uninstalled awn dock or what ever, the like defualt launcher for the phone. Have I installed the rom?.. That's hard to answer. I have "Downloaded it with rom manager" and clicked on install after reboot but.. I do not believe that it actually install.. I mean how would you know if it installed?

Remember I have done the factory reset on this phone so I'm still unsure if usb debugging is automatically on still or checked. I hope it is though. and there is not way for me to actually go into the settings and check if it is on. but will definitely try this out. I've never used ADB before so idk how or where to get it, I have tried to figure it out but wasn't successful. I do have APK, along wth Android SDK Tools.

Hello I'm back to share with you guys some wonderful news!
Ya I was able to fix everything by going back into the internet just like scull2011 suggested but the problem was I wasn't able to move around or get in the wireless internet connection to do so. But thank god the genius button was there! lol! Idk how or why I went into the "genius button" but I started off just by accidentally saying settings.. for some reason but then I was sent to the settings place and I was able to set up my wireless internet and searching for the market and installing a new launcher (in my case I downloaded adw launcher) and now I'm able to get everything to work luckly!! Never ever would have thought of using the genius button!
Yesss now I don't have to use my Gravity T!!
Thank you to everyone who responded on this thread so quickly!!
It really shows the community and network of people on xda-developer who are willing to help people like me!!
Glad you fixed it.

Google gmail apps doesn't work now
I backed up my files with Titanium Backup hoping that it'd back up that data but guess not the sock apps? So I got the launcher going again but now I came across another problem.. My gmail accounts doesn't synce anymore or google music because I had uninstalled the sock app Social + 3.0.200. I tried to find it on play store but doesn't seem to have it. If anyone came across this problem before please help. Thanks.
Or if there is not way in getting the stock app back on does anyone know of a Calender App that doesn't need syncing? I'm starting school and it'd be really helpful to have a powerful Calender App.
It seems no matter what I do, my PC, & a few others, just WILL NOT recognize my Verizon S3! Yes, the Samsung drivers have been installed in all of them. I am at my witt's end with this phone. #Ugh!!!
PS: I am pretty sure I have been through every single "option" within the settings, & I cannot find anything to help. If I drop the pull-down menu, & If I catch it quick enough, I can tap the USB icon & be taken to a screen where I have a choice for either "media" or "camera" whatnot.

I thought I'd mention this just in case ... if you plug your phone in while the screen is locked you'll need to unlock it to get the volumes to mount and appear in explorer.
If you are running XP or later you should not have to load any special USB drivers to make mass storage work.

Neither comment is helpful. Especially since he said he tried other computers.
OP, my Sprint S3 connects automatically with USB Debugging enabled on the phone so I don't have to hit anything on the phone. Then a popup shows up on Windows asking what I want to do.

Try this maybe if u havent already...
Sorry to hear that. Normally when I plug in my S3 to my Win7 Laptop, It just detects and auto-play pops open with what I want to do.
You should try plugging the S3 into the back of the computer and also deleting the drivers that were installed from the phone already and re-installing.

Have you tried a different cable?
As the title says, I use a mac and I have been unable to use both my M7 (After 4.4 Update) and my M8 on my mac. To be specific, android file transfer never sees the phone. Occasionally when booting my phone up when connected the manager pops up with a phone could not connect message, but it has never worked. This is isolated to just HTC phones for me, I verified my setup is fine with a Note 10.1 2014 (running 4.4.2), Nexus 5 (4.4.2), and a S4 (4.2). All of those connect fine.
I know there were some threads about HTC breaking something but I haven't seen a fix yet. Is there one?
If you're rooted, try DriveDroid. Let it acquire root, skip the setup, then tap on the Settings icon on the bottom bar. Then tap USB Settings and select Manually Change Permanent USB Mount. Select Media Transfer Protocol Android Debugging. Now connect your device. You should be good to go.

I hope not. I Loathe HTC Sync. Damn thing never quits right, doesn't run particularly well, and I just don't want another service running if I don't really need it. When I'm done with finals though I will try that. I have a bad feeling your right though...
If you restart the computer with the phone still plugged in, Android File transfer will work.
I recently went through the process of de-bloating this phone; following the helpful guides here on the AT&T G3 General forum.
However, I am finding that I cannot connect via USB to my notebook. I am going to try this on my PC @ home this pm and see if this just is not a driver issue on this end.
I restored the LG PC Suite & Suite Service to system (as well as the settings) and tried the PC suite connection app on my notebook. No dice there either...I do not even see the phone asking me how I want to connect to the laptop before I began all this de-bloat.
Is there an APK, etc. I am missing on the phone that I need to bring back to make the PC suite work again, much less connect with my notebook?
I do have developer settings / usb debugging enabled as well as (re-) installed the LG driver package. Thank you for reading / assisting in advance.

perhaps a list of the things you did would help us decipher what might be wrong. Everyone's idea of 'debloating' is different so I'm sure you've done something different then I have.

Thanks for the reply. I removed pretty much everything on the lists provided in the AT&T G3 forums and now Windows 8 refers to my device under "Printers & Devices" as a "USB Charge Only Interface". I am on my home PC now where I can verify a few days ago I could connect to the device.
To be more specific, I cannot switch the G3 into MTP mode. Does anyone know if there is a specific apk (libs, etc) to re-enable this feature?

This is the reason I usually just freeze apps in titanium backup instead of uninstalling bloat altogether. I've had this kind of issue with other devices in the past so I always err on the side of caution. Like the other member said if you can list what all you removed so we can narrow down which app is causing your issue.
I removed all of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2822501

This is going to be kind of obvious but have you gone into devices on your pc and removed the LG drivers? If you remove them and then plug it in it should auto detect and reinstall the drivers. If it doesn't then at least we know its not a driver issue and it is in fact something on your device. I know it'd be a huge coincidence to both the notebook and desktop to have the same problem but the drivers could have somehow been corrupted.

Thanks for the reply. I removed pretty much everything on the lists provided in the AT&T G3 forums and now Windows 8 refers to my device under "Printers & Devices" as a "USB Charge Only Interface". I am on my home PC now where I can verify a few days ago I could connect to the device.
To be more specific, I cannot switch the G3 into MTP mode. Does anyone know if there is a specific apk (libs, etc) to re-enable this feature?

USB Charge Only Interface
this rings a bell, the first time I connected my phone to the computer it did this, I had to change the setting to MTP mode. There should be a notification on the phone that says something about changing the usb mode.
Also I don't think you get this option if the drivers aren't installed properly so that's another thing you could try

Good job screwyluie, you rang a bell for me...its the launcher. I switched from Google Now back to stock launcher and voila...USB debugging options were available again.
/Fixed...thanks everyone for taking the time to help me! :good:

This is the reason I usually just freeze apps in titanium backup instead of uninstalling bloat altogether. I've had this kind of issue with other devices in the past so I always err on the side of caution. Like the other member said if you can list what all you removed so we can narrow down which app is causing your issue.

Agreed...I will probably flash back to stock, root without tripping qfuse this time, and do a lot of freezing instead of direct removal.

For sure. Its affecting more than that too.
I tried messing with real 4k (not 2k) wallpapers in GN launcher and it really messed with the background. Half screen black and flashing the image every 10 secs...even 1080 wallpapers starting failing.
Switched back to stock launcher and sort of fixed. Reboot finally allowed me to use GN with any 2k or less wallpaper again lol.

I recently went through the process of de-bloating this phone; following the helpful guides here on the AT&T G3 General forum.
However, I am finding that I cannot connect via USB to my notebook. I am going to try this on my PC @ home this pm and see if this just is not a driver issue on this end.
I restored the LG PC Suite & Suite Service to system (as well as the settings) and tried the PC suite connection app on my notebook. No dice there either...I do not even see the phone asking me how I want to connect to the laptop before I began all this de-bloat.
Is there an APK, etc. I am missing on the phone that I need to bring back to make the PC suite work again, much less connect with my notebook?
I do have developer settings / usb debugging enabled as well as (re-) installed the LG driver package. Thank you for reading / assisting in advance.

I have removed every single app in my list on the thread you mentioned and there is no problems with phone connecting to pc. Most likely a driver issue - try installing LG PC suite

If you scroll up, I wrote that it was purely an issue of which launcher I was using.
