[Q] Bricked HD2 - need help getting USB connection working - General Questions and Answers

Need assistance getting USB connection to PC working. (I believe this will be the first step to loading a working ROM since my HD2 is bricked right now.)
Details
1) The HD2 boots to Win Mo 6.5. From there I have been running Android 22 from the SD card. The phone locked a week ago and now when I pull the battery and put it back in, pressing the power button starts to the Pink T-Mobile screen ("stick together") and goes no further - I never see the additional text details in the lower left (radio version and other info, I believe).
2) I have used the Vol up/Vol down/Power botton to do a hard reset. This had no effect on my problem.
3) I can open the Red Green Blue White screen using Vol Down/power button. It shows "Serial" in the white area when USB is not connected. It shows USB in teh white area when the USB cable is connected to a computer.
The red area shows the following 4 lines:
"PB81120 HX-B3"
"SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE"
"0x05"
"CotullaHSPL 0x40"
The above leads me to believe that I am still in a position where I can recover from this problem. BUT I can't get either of my 2 computers to connect properly via USB.
I have 2 computers - Win 7 and Win XP.
On my Win 7 - I have installed Drivers so that it no longer warns me that there is a missing USB driver - the most nagging was a Qualcomm driver. I have installed installed Windows Mobile Device Center. When I connect the HD2 to the Win 7 box via USB it WMDC never recognizes my HD2 but I do get the beeps telling me the computer knows a USB device has been attached.
On my Win XP - I have installed ActiveSync. I also have eliminated all messages of missing drivers. ActiveSync also does not recognize the HD2 when plugged in - but again, the computer beeps saying it knows a USB device was connected.
In both cases I have tried the USB connection from both the T-Mo "stick together" screen and from the Red Green Blue White screen and the PC never recognizes the HD2.
-thanks

Kaiser Green light of death

Hello all,
I'm having problems with my Kaiser. I rooted the device, and flashed Android.
Now, as with many others, when I power on the device, the green light is on and nothing on the screen. I cannot get to the bootloader.
I cannot connect with MTTY (with WinXP or Win7, but I hear the "dunk dunk" USB connected sound when I plug it in). The driver is for a mass USB storage device, which means I cannot use the MotoQ drivers. MTTY never gives USB as a connection option.
Now the confusing part. When I press the power button, I get the green light. When the device is off, and plug in the USB cable, the device starts to boot into Android after 3 mintues, but never gets past the splash screen. It cycles through the boot screen again and again.
I have tried pulling the battery (overnight), the hard and soft reset combos do nothing. I cannot get to the bootloader using the power and camera combo.
Without MTTY connecting, I cannot get Frankenkaiser to connect.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

i've experienced this before after installing new winmo rom. but i got it worked after a hard reset at the green light part.
Thanks, tried that. Nothing.
Did you tried to force the MotoQ drivers instead of the detected driver (harddisk)?
USB Drivers
Yes, I tried the MotoQ drivers, but Win XP and 7 see the device as a large USB memory device, and not a phone. So I always get the "These drivers are not applicable to this device" or something like that.

[Q] Device not recognized on Windows

Well, I was trying to see if I could root my transformer, and ended up not doing it.
The thing is, i reseted the device and now I can't seem to connect it to the pc for nothing.
What I tried:
USB Debug ON/OFF
Uninstall/Reinstall asus sync and drivers
Tried on another pc with fresh asus drivers.
Another Reset (Power + Vol DOWN)
Recovery does not work (starts tinkering, and then the droid thingy with a yeallow triangle with a black exclamation mark inside)
Then one thing wierd happened. It connected ok! Then 5 minutes later, same thing, connecting, some wierd error and results in a Unknown Device.
I'm starting to think it's the cable.. But it charged all the way when I left it tonight.

Help me recovering Samsung Galaxy Mini II

Hello.
Short story: my phone was a little wet and i have some issues with it, mostly i want to get a mass storage to get working. (cant root)
Basically at first the phone didn't even want to charge, when i connected it to the PC windows was giving me an error that the device cannot be recognized, and couldn't install the drivers. (i had Kies installed)
I dried it completely, now the phone turns on without any problem, when i connect it to the pc the phone is recognizing connection (i hear sound + the button backlights are firing up for a sec)
Homever, windows is not detecting any USB device at all, and in about phone/info it says the phone is connected to the AC instead of USB.
When i connect it with USB there is no dropdown in notification to choose from charging, storage etc.
There is also manual usb storage mounting under settings/communication/usb settings , when i'm trying to mount here it just says to connect the phone with usb cable (not detecting connection, homever the backlight + sound is here after connecting, and it's charging)
I tried connecting it with usb debugging on/off even tried to fiddle with in service menu (*#7284#) but nothing.
And since i cannot get the usb storage working basically i cannot flash anything or root it.
Also the USB cable is not a Samsung but an HTC one, could this be a problem? (people in different thread said those cables are the same so it shouldnt be a problem, same amperage, same stick etc.)
Even tried to install MountUSB Widget from market, but it doesn't work when im trying to start the app it's force closing, when i make widget on desktop and press it the phone just vibrate for 1 sec and nothing happens.
When i connect phone with Kies AIR and it works, i mean it shows the storage information, also recognize the phone model correctly, how much free space i have on internal and on SD card but i cannot click "show in explorer" it's greyed out.
Any experts out there could help me? :crying:
Just a blind guess, try a USB cable which supports your device. If it doesn't help, I'm afraid it's a hardware problem and you will have to consult some hardware expert.

none of my computers detecting download mode?

Tried on Windows 8, Windows 7, on Ubuntu and on Mac.
Never mind Odin, not even the OSs detect that there's a device. I've installed the samsung USB drivers, and I've even gone into the device manager on Windows to force it to redetect connected devices to no avail.
Dmesg in Ubuntu gives me nothing as well.
Is my tablet gone for good?
UPDATE: saw someone's post suggesting replacing the 30 pin ribbon cable. Seems I had a bad connection because I took the top portion out of the little slot (with the black bar that locks down) and reseated it. When I connected it to the PC, Odin recognized it.
