I've searched the developement thread, general thread and haven't found an answer. My Windows 7 X64 box doesn't recognize the phone. I've rebooted both the phone and computer, still no love. My sdk is up todate and have googled for the drivers but just get links to join other forums. Just got it today in the USA, could it be the phone wasn't supposed to be released yet? Any help will be appreciated.
I'm not sure I follow. Device drivers for what function? Mass storage device should be supported without extra drivers. For HTC sync, Internet sharing from pc, etc, you need to install HTC sync, which you can find on the SD card that came with the phone or on HTC website. Bluetooth functions require drivers from the maker of your Bluetooth transceiver or pc.

[PROBLEM] Issue with internet sharing from PC to phone via USB
Hi,
I don't want to start a new thread, because this one is similar to my problem.
I have HTC Sense, and when I connect it to PC and select "Internet form PC", my PC gets a blue screen.
I've installed HTC Sync provided with microSD included to phone, and when i connect phone with PC via USB with HTC Sync selected - everything is OK, phone synchronizes data with Outlook and stuff... But, when I want to update some data in my phone via Internet from PC (during HTC Sync connection) - my PC crashes and gives me a blue screen
What is going on? Does any of You have same issue?
I have Windows XP Professional 32bit with SP3
Could someone help?
Thanx in advance

About a year ago i sent an e-mail to HTC asking just that, at that time they did not support Mac's, and after that i just forgot about it...
Exactly what do you want to accomplish by connecting your phone to your mac?
If it is just to access the memory card it should just work.
I think if i remember right i wanted mostly two things, tethering through usb and managing contacts, the first one is solved easily by using wifi tethering, and the second one is much easier to do by always create your contacts on google(not sim, not in phone memory), and then you can just arrange them in your google account using a computer, that also means the next time you have a Android phone, your contacts will always be backed up and restored whenever you register your new phone with your google account(for market).

I'm also looking for a Mac driver; ever since rooting my phone using Revolutionary my computer no longer recognizes that the phone is connected, and the phone doesn't recognize that the computer is connected. I've also tried it on my Linux and Windows machines at home and neither of them work either. The problem is with the phone, not the desktop OS.
Any ideas? Sounds like it would be a driver issue, but I'm not 100% certain.
EDITED: I rebooted my linux machine at home (first time in months!) and it does actually work there. But it seems to have lost the mac and windows drivers. I don't care about the windows one so much, but I use a music syncing app called DoubleTwist that AFAIK is not available for Linux. (Plus, my iTunes library is on my work Mac.)
hey XDAs
received my omnia 7 on last friday and it´s everything i could´ve asked for!
but now i got a little problem...
at first, some facts: i´m on a macbook pro and i use the windows phone 7 connector (tried win 7 and zune via boot camp, too).
i tried to unlock with 2 different trys, a) with chevron and b) with some dialer code to get in the "diagnosis" menu........both tries failed!
but after b) i got a new "diagnosis" tile in my apps menu
now i have the problem, that my pc can´t recognize the phone anymore...win 7 and zune say "no phone connected" and the wp7 connector (mac) doesn´t do anything (should start automatically, when phone is plugged in) but i get a "new network device found" message where i need to configure the new device.
(in addition, i THINK that my phone doesn´t even load the battery through the usb port, so maybe my cable is broken?)
maybe i can´t connect my phone because of the "diagnosis" menu?? and how can i remove this app??? maybe i should do a factory reset?
so what´s the problem here??? even if i can´t do the unlock, it sucks not being able to put music, videos or even updates on my omnia ;(
really nobody?
I don't know anything about using Macs with a WP7, but on windows, you need yo make sure you have the latest Zune. Also, if you have hacked to allow tethering, you have also turned off the Zune sync function.

The problem is you aren't actually running windows, it's still a virtual system. The USB controls are still through your mac. You will not be able to connect your win7 phone to a mac, that is not possible, and your wasting your time even attempting it. Sell the mac and buy a laptop, you will be happier.

If he's using VMWare fusion and accessing a Win7 guest via OSX host, then you're right.
However, if he's dual-booting Win7 through Boot Camp, then it should still work.
Samsung phones, like LG phones, have a way of switching the USB mode to allow Zune or allow tethering (the latter killed by Mango).
Monkeytown will have to follow the instructions for changing the USB mode back to the one that allows for Zune (on LG phones, it's called MS COMPOSITE).
i´m running a dual boot system, no vmware...
and microsoft released the wp7 connector themselves for mac, so it SHOULD work :/
i think i never saw an option of tethering in the settings menu, so how can i do that? i mean, change the usb mode
/e: i managed to get another omnia 7, and it works like a charm via my usb cable and mac connector
so....i would like to see the instructions that i should follow -.-
hi,
I am an advance user and recently brought the Samsung Omnia W i8350 a.k.a Samsung Focus Flash. Initially it connected fine and updated twice with zune since the initial stock version.
I did not had time to explore much and I am pretty new to the Windows Phone 7 environment. few days back when I connected the phone to the PC, the device was recognized as GT-I8350 and windows kept on searching for drivers but no drivers were located. I tried installing the zune drivers but even they do not allow me to connect the device to zune (hence no music, no updates, no backups )
Then I downloaded drivers from tsar3000 and they automatically instal 3 devices off my phone, one was a com port, one was modem , and so on...
STILL NO CONNECTION TO ZUNE.
I have tried almost everything but to no avail. can you guys help me?...
Regards
PS: between the last successful connect and unsuccessful connect, there was a time when Win7 stopped booting, so I simply stopped many services and booted again because I had a presentation and no time for a fresh install, could this possibly be a service issue?... I tried starting some services but the did not work. Can anyone enumerate the services required by winP7.5?... also if a manual driver is available, it will be appreciated.
PPS: I also tried running the windows phone 7 drivers from zune folder, it gives an error the device cannot start.
You put the phone in tethering mode, it sounds like. The COM port and modem drivers indicate that the phone is sending a different USB device ID than normal. On the gen1 Samsung phones (and quite possibly on the gen2 ones, but I havne't checked) you could put the phone's USB port in a mode where it would act as a modem for the PC. It sounds like that's what you've done.
Try a search on "WP7 Samsung tethering" or similar and see if you can put the phone back in its normal mode.

hey thanks,
I was just reminded, that I was one day testing the steps mentioned on this thread, to use the phone as USB modem, hence had left it there since then, Never used it though.
Great! Solved!
Hi,
Im new to windows mobile, i have titan 7, when i connect to computer via usb nothing comes up, didn't installed any drivers becuase i search the google for usb drivers for this but didn't get any so please help.
thx

Windows Mobile doesn't really exit anymore, first of all. You have Windows Phone 7 (no, not "Windows 7 Phone" like some people say, and yes, the branding is stupid). Despite the similar name it's a very different product from WinMo, although a bit of the low-level code is shared.
Your PC *should* have automatically installed the WP7 driver when you connected the phone, but all it would have done in that case is tell you to then install the Zune software, which is used for syncing with the phone. You can get Zune at http://zune.net, and it should include the needed drivers.
Note that some things, like USB Mass Storage access to the phone's filesystem, just aren't normally possible with WP7.

Windows 8 is not the problem, what you need are Asus drivers.......
Is there anybody who have the drivers?

Install Asus Sync on your PC, download the drivers and place in program files. You may have to manually install the drivers once the Asus is connected.

It took several goes for me to get the drivers installed.
I don't know if you need to start sync too - if so, do so from the tablet's settings first.
You might also need to experiment with the storage settings and remove an SD card if you have it mounted
Google for Connect Asus to PC and similar terms.
It does work, I promise.
PS
Try Airdroid app if you want to connect wirelessly and not via USB cable

I did make Asus sync Ok in the settings, and i installed it on the computer. It finds my tablet and it's possible to sync contacts and calender, I think. But I can't the the drivers to work the Mtp has a yellow warning sign! And when I try to update the driver it fails. I've uninstalled it to, still nothing works..

Are the drivers actually installed? You need to select the tablet when connected to the PC and make sure that the drivers are installed. Under Device Manager, under portable devices (while Transformer is plugged in), you will see Transformer. Right click it and choose to update driver manually. Choose the location where you unzipped MTP folder of the download. This should update the windows driver then.

FOR EVERYBODY OVERLY [SOMETIMES SICKENINGLY] FAMILIAR WITH WINDOWS MANUAL DRIVER INSTALLS, HERE'S WHERE THOSE MTD DRIVERS ARE PUT BY THE ASUS SYNC FOR WINDOWS XP DOWNLOAD:
C:\Program Files\ASUS\ASUS Android USB Drivers\MTP
FOR EVERYBODY ELSE, READ ON:
Hey, had the same issue here, thinking it was the fact that ASUS is showing nothing past XP under their Windows downloads, so maybe a compatibility issue with their Sync setup (primarily, not copying the MTD drivers to the correct place during setup).
Having had MUCH WORSE issues with my fave little ol' Sansa Express MP3 player years ago when its battery died completely, I cracked my knuckles, sighed, and dug in for a long haul.
Luckily, I tried this first, since dealing with Windows version compatibility is much more common, so more familiar/easier.
(Of course, I was doing something different, but I'll be doing what you're doing, soon enough).
Download ASUS sync for your tabbie here:
https://www.asus.com/Tablets_Mobile/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF300T/#support_Download_17
Of course, it puts everything where it should, except the very important MTD files--but obviously ASUS included them--for me (32-bit Win7), they were HERE:
C:\Program Files\ASUS\ASUS Android USB Drivers\MTP
Plug your tablet to your PC via it's USB cable, wait for the Windows driver search to appear, then tell Windows to 'skip obtaining driver software from windows update'. Let it fail (that's where some of the best stuff begins!)
Go to Control Panel, Device Manager...open it.
As with some of the worst driver issues I've seen, I didn't see anything other than a single driver there--'ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T'' (see pic)--so I clicked 'Action' up top, then 'Add Legacy Hardware' (single-click something in the lower driver listings to enable this option), then 'Next', then 'Install the hardware that I manually select from a list', then 'Show All Devices'.
You don't have to wait for this list to populate--just click 'Have Disk', then 'Browse', then find the proper ASUS MTD driver at the location I described in this line above-->>>C:\Program Files\ASUS\ASUS Android USB Drivers\MTP
These will be annoying click-out submenus, but be patient--you're almost done.
Click through the rest, and you're done...NEARLY.
As is typical with this manual driver stuff (esp. storage drivers like this), I had to restart my PC to finish this driver install (and 'yes', I really did try and cheat Windows out of another 10 minutes of MY LIFE by running the ASUS Sync program on my PC, but it didn't work until rebooting).
Spoiler alert! (Upon reboot, it worked)
[ahem]
Upon reboot, it worked. I ran ASUS Sync, and [finally!!!] am seeing it recognized my tablet as what it is, and life began again after my millionth+6 Windows driver issue. (PLEASE remind me to personally 'thank' Bill G. wherever I see him after death).
EPILOGUE:
Why ASUS failed to update its driver update page after Windows XP, I'll never know, this being a little harder than the ole 'Compatibility Mode' install route...but this worked for me, and despite this little stutter-step, I'll be reaping whatever benefits ASUS sync gives me, but honestly, it wasn't even what I needed to back up my Home Page settings on my TF300T in order to factory reset the thing, because, like some here, mine is performing MUCH slower than it should, even in Performance Mode (but, hey, I got mine from a local pawn shop, so--that's expected, y'know).
ENJOY! Hope this helps, most of the time I feel I've nothing to contribute here...XDA is WAY over my wittle head!
What's really odd is that, even after doing all this, my Device Manager driver listing for the tablet still looks like the attachment I posted here, yet the thing appears to be working fine. Double-clicking on the 'kicked-out' drivers shows 'Device Failed to Start'...this is probably because Windows isn't actually using the ADB and MTD drivers until immediately upon running the ASUS Sync application, though.

I've tried all of this. But still I cannot get Sync to work. In my 64-bit Windows 7 device manager I have it listed as portable device.
I can copy files to and from it in my Explorer. I have no devices that have not been properly installed anywhere in my list. So what to do now?

Have you tried going into your Windows 'Device Manager' and deleting ALL your old occurances of EVERY Android device there (making sure to check 'uninstall drivers' as well during this process)...then starting with that last link I sent cha, again (the universal ADB link)?
Try this--at some point, I was also forced to do this...maybe more than once.
That will be all I can say to help ya! Good luck!
