Hey guys,
Recently I have encountered a problem with my Captivate. When I connect it to my PC in download mode, I am notified that the device is not recognized. Thus, Odin doesn't see it.
I searched the forums and found instances of people with similar issues, but there isn't any real standard way to fix this.
So as it stands, I have a 2.3.3 Rom on my phone, with the updated bootloaders, and no way to get back to stock so I can trade it in on the warranty.
I am convinced that this is an issue with the phone itself, as I have tried connecting to Odin while in Download Mode on two separate computers, I have tried with two separate usb cables, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers a few times, I don't have KIES installed, I have tried different versions of the drivers, I have tried with USB debugging on and off, and so on. So clearly, through all of this, it would seem that there is an issue with the phone's USB port.
So the question is, is there any way to restore to the stock 2.1 or 2.2 roms without using Odin (bearing in mind that there are 2.3.3 bootloaders present) or am I pretty much screwed? The idea is to get a warranty replacement on account of the USB issue.
Also, for what it is worth, I am still able to mount the SD cards while the phone is on, this only occurs in Download Mode.
Thanks!
Give the I9000 drivers a shot ... Couldn't hurt...
What rom. Were u running u may need the nexus s drivers

I tried using the i9000 drivers and I am getting the same exact problem. :/
Also, I am running Continuum 5.1.
Try Starting odin plugging the phone into the pc off, and then using the power and volume down buttons to enter download mode. Worked for me.
I have seen it in other places that if your micro sd card has a lot of space used the function can time out before the phone is recognised. It has been recommended to remove your sd card before you start the process.

Hey, i have had my sensation about 2 months, now when i connect it to a pc it dosnt ask what connection type to choose, it only charges, in the menu it is set to ask me about connection type, while connected to pc there is now no icon in the notification area (used to say 'charge only' or 'disk drive') even when rebooted into 4ext recovery and mounted/toggle usb connection, it dosnt connect as a disk drive like it has always done in the past, it only charges, i have tried 3 different pc's and 3 different micro usb cables, also have tried updating the firmware to 3.24 and installed ICS with the same result, i think its a hardware issue? last time it worked was 3 days ago connected via usb to a jvc headunit listening to my music files.
Weird problem!
Maybe you could try with a different SD card to eliminate the possibility of it being an SD card problem?
If it still doesn't work with another SD Card it may well be a hardware problem.

Well I had the same problem with the custom ROM I use.
Installing it clean with a full wipe solved it.
It is definitely NOT the pc, laptop or SD-card.
Are you on a custom ROM?
- Yes then install clean with full wipe. (make a nandroid backup!!!) and install all apps new.
- No then do a total reset (reset to factory settings) and do all the install stuff new. After that you can also install with RUU your ROM designated for your device.
You will see your USB connection will show up!!
same here
i have exactly the same problem as described in op.
will try flashing a new rom then also; first have to buy a flashcard reader then to get my new rom ON the sd card....
or do you think a nandroid restore would fix the problem? will try that first.
Will report back
The nandroid might restore the problem.I'd try it first.if not , then do the full wipe reinstall as said above .if at the time of the nandroid back up it was working is a good possibility it will fix the issue. Hope this helps!

Couple of tips that might fix your problem.
If you're running aokp make sure you disable fast charge.
Turn on mtp in USB computer connection settings. I have trouble accessing the options from most custom roms, so a little work around is to install either apex or nova, long press add to home screen - shortcuts - activities - scroll down to Settings - USB computer connection(com.android.settings.usbsettings) . Tap it and you should get a shortcut. Select mtp.
Ultimately, the thing that fixed my same issue was getting a different USB cable lol. You can also try different ports on your computer.
Good luck, hope you can find a solution to your problem! If all else fails, you can try using airdroid for transfer over Wi-Fi
Anyone find a fix on this , mine has started doing this yesterday :crying:
Tried 3 different cables , different usb ports , different sd card , formatting sdcards in 4xt recovery , reflashing firmware.... also htc sync re installed for drivers (htc sync does not see the phone), adb re installed (adb does not see the phone??)
dont think its the rom as adb cannot see the phone in fastboot
anyone any other ideas , tried ninjasalad suggestion on enabling mtp also ??
I think you're fine. I had this problem after flashing ARHD 6.6.X, OrdDriod series, and PkMn series. What I did was the following:
Went into settings. Connect to PC. Unchecked the "ask me" , Restart phone. Then checked "ask me" again. Lastly, restarted phone again.
After doing that a couple times, it worked for me. Maybe you can try that.
This happened to me as well. I think it's a hardware problem

check these
make sure you have enabled usb debugging mode from settings
install htc drivers
install htc sync(i am not sure if it is necessary)
use 2.0 usb ports
use the original usb cable if you aren't using it yet
wont work, screen broken

I can't do that because to enable usb debugging mode you have to use the phone and the phone's screen is completely broken and there's no way to even get into it using the touch screen.

Hi all,
I have a friend and he came to me with a problem with his "Desire S" that I assume as "USB Brick". Here's the symptoms:
When I plugged into any computer, the phone doesn't come out with options about Disk Drive, HTC Sync, USB Teethering, nor Internet Pass-through, but just charge only. I did UNCHECK the remember option tick. The phone just charge
I go to bootloader:
instead of normal "fastboot usb" I get only "fastboot AC". The phone just charge.
The phone itself is fine: I can use card reader to put zip files into the sdcard and flash in recovery etc. But as i said fastboot usb doesn't detect, and adb push of course doesn't work as well.
USB Debugging is checked, "fast boot" in Menu>settings>power is unchecked.
from what I read across in the internet I'm positive that the issue I'm dealing here is USB brick.
So here's my question: Anyone faces the same problem and have fix for it?
have you tried flashing a different rom ?

it's similar to USB bricking issues for the Desire. Just that their fix works on their phone but not here. :/
a google search found this http://androidforums.com/htc-desire-s/458357-solved-usb-bricked.html not sure if will help but you never no. if not have you tried flashing a ruu.

i saw that as well. the only problem is that flashing ruu requires fastboot no? (running the .exe file from pc which the phone is connected)
That's the part where mine can't work. Anything that must be done from comp doesn't work.
Thanks!

Why are you trying to solve HW problem with SW?
I don't know what is "USB brick", but there's no such thing. While you can screw up USB access in the OS, there's no way you can screw it up in the bootloader. If you read well and put attention, you'll see that all "USB brick" threads in Desire were in OS, and fastboot worked. The most likely reason for USB not working in fastboot is physical - one of the USB pins disconnected, either bent inside the microUSB socket of the phone (most likely), or broke off the main board (less likely). So the required fix is physical as well.

Okay thanks, as I've said I don't know much about this issue either, and I thought it's like the common issues faced in Desire thread.
From the outward look it seems to me that the pins are fine. So i guess it is the pin on the mainboard got disconnected?
if so, is it possible for me to return to stock from this stage?
I guess you want to return your phone under warranty. You can try to flash the stock ROM through creating and flashing PB99IMG.ZIP (google it to see what it is and what it does - it's a file from SD card that is automatically flashed by HBOOT).
If you have no warranty - I'd suggest taking it to the nearest decent phone lab. If I'm not mistaken, the price for fixing will be low.
The pins might look fine, but one of the 5 might not be protruding enough to touch the plug pins.
Just to check some obvious things
Have you tried more than one PC?
Have you tried more than one USB cable?
Did you ever instal HTC drivers? You should find HTC sync exe in root of sd card
And just to correct a possible typo in the post above
- rename it to "PG88IMG.zip" (case sensitive)
- put it on the root of your SD card
- reboot into hboot and wait.

Tried on both his and my laptop. My DHD works fine with my comp and my cable so it's definitely not the cable problem. As for drivers, it should make sound when the phone is plugged in but it's not. And if my DHD works, I don't see any reason why the DS can't.
And thanks for more clarification about flashing the PG88IMG.zip in hboot
have had the same problem with my dhd. The problem seems to be intermittent on my phone, in that i got it working a few weeks ago by following the suggestions for the desire usb brick problem.(yes it did work for desire hd too)
By this i mean after numerous tries i got my laptop to be recognized at least in my computer(even though the sd card would not show)After
i used sdk tools and command promt and entered:-
fastboot oem eraseconfig
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem boot
in that order.
After this my dhd mounted fine in 2 laptops at home and one pc
However about 2 days ago its has just stopped being rexcognized by my laptop or pc again,I have tried several times over the last few days but nothing works
I am convinced now it is an intermittent h/w propblem,
I am now using my phone explorer to access the sd card over wi fi so i don't have to remove it and insert it in laptop sd slot.
If the phone is recognized by PC in fastboot mode, and phone screen shows "FASTBOOT USB" - it isn't a HW problem.
If the phone isn't recognized in fastboot mode - it is a HW problem.
This is a simple and 100% way to distinguish between so-called "USB bricks" and HW failure of USB slot / one of the USB lines.
My phone does show every time in fastboot usb , but if i send a command via adb get 'waiting for device'.
However as I said in my previous post it was connecting every time a few days ago on 2 laptops and 1 pc.
Nothing has changed on the phone or the laptops since but now it has stopped responding again. It will not connect on laptop with or without using adb
I am going to try some different roms over the next few days, currently using Leedroid 5.1.1, but i am siick of spending hours and hours on it.
I think I can live with using my phone explore over wi fi(although its slower) and if I do need to copy something faster on or off the sd card, I unmount it and us it on my laptop slot with and SD adaptor
Fastboot and ADB are TWO DIFFERENT ENTITIES.
You can't send ADB command when in fastboot.
You can't send fastboot command when in ADB.
To have ADB functional, you need the kernel to be loaded properly and at least start of Android boot.
To have fastboot functional, all you need to do is reboot to bootloader.
Jack_R1 thanks for the info.
I get waiting for device in fastboot usb mode and if I try adb commands with phone booted its no use because the pc or laptop does not even see the phone in device manager
If you get "waiting for device" - make sure all the drivers are installed in Windows. Look in Device Manager, see if you can find "Android bootloader" or "Android 1.0" device.
If there's none - you might have a HW problem on your hands.
I'm sure its a harware problem, but i have no problem charging , either from mains or usb from laptop or pc & sd card card works fine within phone.
Things I have tried on 2 laptops and 1 pc:-
uninstalled /reinstalled htc drivers and adb drivers
uninstalled htc sync totally and installed drivers only from Ace hack kit tools folder
tried different roms(gingerbread and ICS)
went back to stock rom 1.32
After trying all the above the phone is not recognized in laptop/pc device manager
I've decide the next phone I have will be one with 16gb or 32gb internal memory which is plenty, no need for sd card lol
i have been searching for answers and i havent seen any good answers
my sdcard is not working nor is usb connection it only charges, i've download the drivers and all but nothing. next to the network i get a sdcard icon with an Exclamation Mark,mount sd card is grayed out and erase sd card, can anyone help with this?

Is your phone rooted? If so boot into recovery mode then go to advance and mount USB and then plug phone into pc and see if your pc is bening detected.
Is this your 1st time that your phone is doing thing this?
Other half I would say if you do not have the drivers from HTC then down load them from HTC for your inspire
Or what you can do is if you have the sd card adapter take out the micro sd card out and load to the pc with card reader and format it but do keep in mind you will lose everything if all the above do NOT work it will be a lose if you have to go that route this happen to me once so.if you can't get your pc to read the card with sd card adapter could be that your micro card is bad some how

So your phone is the only one that your pc is not detecting it?
Did you uninstall any drivers did you do any stock os update?
If you do have the drivers from HTC inspire try uninstall them and re install them.

but it hasnt been resolved yet, how am i gonna be able to do adb when my sdcard is not mounted when it is
Damn thats crappy.. (im sure you know this by now lol) like I said before this happen to me but what I did was boot into recovery by the vol down and power method and once I did get into recovery I selected mounts and usb and plug in my phone and BAM! detected and was able to access the sd card and REMOVE THE PD98IMG file that kept my phone from booting up..
Honestly I would try plugging your phone into another port of your pc that your using or go to another pc and try it something that does not have the htc drivers and if not install them and remove htc sync driver once you get them there is 3 drivers you get keep the other 2 but uninstall the sync..
All that info from that link you posted and what your telling is like 99.9% same issues I had a few months back.
But also like I said do you have the sd card adapter for the micro sd card? if so then try just plugging the sd card in the pc and see if you can access the sd card files and if you do have that PD98IMG delete it.
Once you do so that should clear up and bootloops..
By chance when you were flashing a rom while in recovery, did you flash a rom and flash a kernel? Because I did that once back to back where I flash a rom and with out it booting up for the 1st time it just sat there looping because I flashed the kernel right after I flash the rom.. If you did that just wipe everything and flash again flash the rom boot 1st time then flash kernel.. I know this may not have much info to you request hahah
just thank me for any help that I provide means a lot..

Is your phone rooted? If so boot into recovery mode then go to advance and mount USB and then plug phone into pc and see if your pc is bening detected.
Is this your 1st time that your phone is doing thing this?
Other half I would say if you do not have the drivers from HTC then down load them from HTC for your inspire
Or what you can do is if you have the sd card adapter take out the micro sd card out and load to the pc with card reader and format it but do keep in mind you will lose everything if all the above do NOT work it will be a lose if you have to go that route this happen to me once so.if you can't get your pc to read the card with sd card adapter could be that your micro card is bad some how

ok..heres a dumb question..well, maybe... if u go to advanced and it says unmounted...is it unmounted or not? or if it says mount is it mounted? in other words, whatever the screen says that its on, is what is on , right? cuz i did just that, and its still not recognizing my sd card.
Same Problem

What do you mean by the pin was off?
How did you fix the sd card problem because I'm still having the same problem all of my options are shaded grey.
I've sensation Xe which has problem. This device was given me as a gift from one of my friend.
The main problem with this device is pc doesnot recognize it. I've tried with 3 pcs, different cables, factory reset,
changed micro sd card, checked the device in usb mode, checked ask me before connecting device etc, i mean every possible
solutions out there.. My main concentration is even when i try new pc there is no response from pc like any sound or like
installing driver for pc.
The device charges through usb. I've installed latest htc sync for my device.
I've heard about usb bricking but i don't know whether it is related to my problem,. Every thing ,except connection with pc , is
working fine.
And other thing is my phone is s-on, unrooted, locked bootloader, lates ics 4.0.3, 1.27.00, stock recovery.
My phone is never rooted or unlocked , so my guess is my friend updated to ics through ota.
Now beside solution to above related problem , it'll be kind if anyone help me with a guide to
flash custom rom, it may help to sort my problem. Pls remember to flash custom rom
i need to do something before like unlock bootloader s-off etc. As usb is not working in my device, so i think
flashing custom rom in my situation is little difficult. please help me to get ot of this problem.
Sorry for my bad englist as english is not my mother tounge.
You could always put the sdcard into a card reader or another phone, copy the files across then apply the update? Could be a corrupt MISC partition (IIRC) this used to happen on the Legend.
To apply an update you would have to extract rom.zip from a RUU. To do this you need to download a RUU and run it (with no phone connected) open task manager on windows (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) look out for ARUwizard.exe, go through the RUU clicking next untill the ARUwizard pops up then right click it, choose open file location and scroll down to ROM.zip copy this file to desktop. Rename it to PG58IMG.zip make sure its not PG58IMG.zip.zip as that wont work. Copy to sdcard then turn phone on using power and volume down, it will scan the sdcard (hopefully) find the file and start updating. A reflash could well repair the problem

Hi,
You can flash custom ROM with s-on.
Look HERE
Try installing THESE DRIVERS then see if your pc recognizes your phone.
Check my signature for many links to s-offing ,if you want to go that way.
