[Q] USB not recognized

Hi All
I just have got a sensation. I cannot connect to my laptop anymore, it worked fine for a few days, but every time I connect it to my laptop, a message pops up saying that USB is not recognized, I have tried on three computers (XP + Win 7) have installed/uninstalled HTC sync with the drivers.
On the phone itself, I don't get a notification showing the options for USB connection (Charge, HTC sync etc), however it charges fine using the USB cable while connected to the PC.
I have reset my phone to factory default, formatted SD card, have tried another USB cable but no luck.
I just do not understand what can be wrong all of a sudden, once it was working fine last night but not today
Can someone please help? I have sent an email to HTC support already with this information. I'll see what they got to say about this.
Wish If i could help but I'm having the same problem since yesterday And I've tried all of the above with no luck!
Device running in stock rom, unlocked & used for 10 days only.
I had that same problem once on my Desire HD, I removed the sd card, re-inserted it and started the phone, was all good from that point on.
It might work for you too.
Any updates on this, guys ?
I had the same problem..
I used another usb kabel that fixed it for me

No solution for me yet!! i've searched up & down but still nothing.. its getting really frustrating.
i might get rid of it all together after all.
USB & Internet pass-through
I had this problem too. I uninstalled HTC Sync and all related HTC programmes from my laptop. Downloaded the latest HTC Sync from HTC site, and installed. After that, it worked again.
My Sensation is rooted.

i have this very same problem.
tried 4 different computers, windows xp, windows 7 x486, windows 7 x64...
tried different cables... different roms... different kernels... dettached sd card... umounted sd... mounted sd... debug mode... default modes upon connection... the problem is definitely in the phone itself...
the computer simply ignores the connection, no sign of it. the phone behaves like it is connected to a charger, not to usb.
can anybody help us?
I am also getting the same problem now!! I was downgrading to GB, then again i went to JB miui. Then i wanted to format my sdcard, formatted it through PC, and i installed new CM9 rom on it. Now, after the CM9 rom is booting, the device is not recognized by windows!!!
EDIT : Removed SDCARD, then powered off, then reinserted SD, and rebooted into recovery. It got mounted from recovery, and installed a new ROM. Now it works flawlessly!!!

what rom did you install ?
Changing your cable may fix this problem.
Buy a new one.

Does this mean you tried more than one computer? Its not clear. If not, try that. Also try different USB ports, as this has been known to solve the issue for some people.
Sorry disregard my post I can't wrap my mind around stock and ota

download HTC sync manager.. should automatically re-download drivers then connect phone USB to computer and try again with USB debugging on and phone in Transfer files mode

Sounds like you have tried everything.
May be something simple like the cable. Tried different one?
Different usb port

That's not good. You may want to return the phone.
For giggles go to bootloader and do factory reset 3 times in a row and see if it works.

am doing the reset now. Is there a way to install custom rom in this condition

maybe, with adb/fastboot installed on pc.
when in bootloader, does it show fastboot, and then change to fastboot USB when plugged in?
You could follow the tutorials to unlock, flash a recovery, install rom. and see what happens.

USB connecting problem.

Hello guys!
I have been using my 1+1 since september. Everything was allright! I have changed rom and kernel many times, so it means that i have got my ADB installed and know something about tweaking a phone. I say that, becouse last time i asked for a help, i heard only simple solutions. I already tried them all.
So, my problem is:
When i connect my phone to PC 1+1 start to charge, but PC can`t see him. I have tryed it on 4 different pc (all windows 8 or 8,1 (64)) and 2 different cables (native and my old one). All PC can`t even find 1+1 in device manager. Ofcourse i have confirmed USB-debugging, MTP etc. This problem suddenly appeared without a reason.
So i used native reset function and now my phone got no Root and Recovery. I don`t know what to do. Any ideas?
Any help. guys?
Still need help
Did you update your SDK?
If you're using the original USB cable that came with the phone try swapping it with a non-OPO cable.

test with another PC?
Two other OPO users had similar issues and it turned out to be the original cable. That is why I'm suggesting a different cable.
I have used another cable and 3 different PC. Still cant find my phone!
updated SDK but it didnt help
Weird. Try uninstall all driver. Then re-install back OPO driver. I think that is not cable issue since you have tried different pc and cable. Hmmm really weird.

@xanthrax need your help on this. Really weird problem. What do you think?
Just need your experience
i`m a bit confuse here
on the first post he says " after reset , no root no recovery"
what`s the status now ?
try pdanet app, it comes with universal adb drivers
i already installed reinstalled uninstalled drivers. i hae tryed all manipulations with drivers
etm my phone has no recovery or root, beacouse i did factory reset (thought it might help). so i cant install another rom (beacouse cant use abd fastboot or recovery)
any other ideas??
maybe its problem with phone usb port
Did you try like what xanthrax said? Try it first then let us know it help or not.
Weird. Charge can detected but not showed up on your pc. Hmm

HTC recognition via USB on PC

Hi there.
I have an U11 now and I am quite happy with it.
But there is one problem.
It takes ages till I see the U11 appearing on the PC. USB debugging is on, data transfer chose at the U11, tried several USB connections on the PC tried even another laptop.
Sometimes it is even not showing the phone.
Are here people around who are facing the same problem?
Any solutions?
Thx a lot.
Schuertzi
Yeap exactly the same...
No problem here, each new usb port you connect to loads the drivers and takes a few seconds but after that connection is fast.
Thing that has me peeved is the lack of OTG support. I like to backup straight to an external HDD. No go with the U11.
Tried and waited really long after the drivers were installed. Nothing changed really. Even with using the same USB connection.
May be I did something wrong during flashing TWRP and then the Viper ROM.
Will check and let you know.
Thx
Sxhuertzi
I had the same issue even though i didnt root. I tried on multiple pcs and still got a message saying usb device not recognized. So i returned it and ordered the solar red. I should receive it today and I'll let you know if I still get the same result.
Great, just let us know.
Thx
Hi Guys,
I solved my problem.
I had first the wrong TWRP installed then deleted. Tried then again to install via fastboot. Was not possible.
Then, I installed the official TWRP app from the playstore. Installed the actual TWRP from there. And voila, TWRP installed, rebooted and everything works.
Just for your info. May be you have similar problem.
Schuertzi.
So i definitely had a defective device as this new one connects without any issue.

I can use external HDD and pendrives. In fact, the u11 recognises NTFS even.
