Hi,
Several things you can try:
Re-install the drivers/HTC Synch
Check my signature for windows 7 & 8 drivers.
Try a different wire.
Try different usb slots ( front and back,and not usb hub)

I've played around with the ROM, and this is a bit of a bug. Tethering is the main problem, as the device won't use MTP while tethering is enabled. Whenever it does manage to connect, it will only attempt to tether a connection.
Disable that first by connecting the phone to a PC, when connected click the notification and disable tethering.
You can then use the SD Manager application to connect as mass storage, or you can attempt to use the ROMs in-built MTP transfer.
Also try out Malybru suggestions and see if you can get a more stable connection.

I used odin to flash 2.3.6 firmware in download mode and it installed successfully, i wanted my mobile to connect to external storage device(i.e. pen drive) so i made a cable myself and also attache charger power source to that cable(hoping it would work.e. mount & read pendrive) ..After that my mobile wouldn't cnnect to my comp or laptop via usb data cable....it would charge but a usb data connection was not possible .. And finally after trying various methods i think it now is a hardware malfunction(becoz of me) and it should be given to a service center..
Rest all is working fine i can flash diff roms , camera ,wifi all working now using pacman rom so i thought service center would charge me more if i gave my mobile as it is.. they could easily charge more for seeing other rom installed So i wanted stock rom flashable by CWM..
So anyone's help is appreciated.. thanks...

what I understand from your posts is that your phone is perfectly fine but there is a problem with your pc and data cable.
Check with some other data cable,and re-install the samsung drivers for "device not recognized" error.
Use other usb port to check whether its a problem in your pc.

i never saw any such option on any rom yet!
whenever you connect with usb to a PC you get USB connected notification..click on it and enable mass storage.
never saw MTP & PTP in usb connections.
Which rom are you using?
If its 4.+ then try this

In Device Manager in Universal Serial Bus Controllers i uninstalled everything from ASMedia XHCi controllers to USB Root hub... all of them, then clicked scan for hardware changes then i connected my device to computer, then clicked the app USB mass storage for ics and JB ....on computer the elements(USb Root hub, etc.) reinstalled and there it detected my device as unknown device,,,,then for 5-10 sec a message flashed
something like this ,,...". I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I Ata mass storage " then it stopped showing not installed...
Using Pacman rom ..does have mtp,ptp,mass storage options..( when i tick any one of the three options it force closes)...
I googled over net on connectivity issue and will need sum time to format c drive and then try again...:fingers-crossed:
I wonder once in odin multi downloader i ticked the debug option only then i clicked delete driver option which may have caused the problem.......
Finally problem solved...replacing charging IC ( as the repairman said) solved comp connection problem then flashed stock rom....

[Q] Can not connect HTC M8 to windows7 in PTP mode for android debug

Hi all,
I'm trying to connect my htc one m8 to my pc(windows 7) for usb debugging but it can be seen in devices section on eclipse as in offline mode.
I can not see the RSA permission popup which should generally be seen on device on first connection.
Device connects only in MTP mode and i can not find an option to change it to PTP mode(which i read is important to connect to eclipse)
I have already installed HTC sync manager(device driver for HTC).
Can some one help me out in this please..?
Thank you in advance.
Mohan.
Try going into storage and then disable any way you can transfer files to your phone. Unplug your device, then plug it in again. And see if it works, usually helped me when I had to get android debugging working with my HTC Desire X

Sorry but it did not help,
Do you know a way to toggle between MTP and PTP modes..?
I can not find the option to do so.
Sorry friend, no I don't.
Have you tried to turn of debugging mode and enabling it again after disconnecting device and connecting it.

If ur rooted install multirom and install cm13 as secondary os.. then connect to ur pc while ur in cm13 it will detect the driver after that unstall cm 13 and connect as u do normally
like if worked
hey i found away around it thx though!
How did you fix the problem?
"hey i found away around it thx though!"
But why in the name of all that's holy would you ask the question and then not share the answer for others who regularly have the same problem? Keeping info to yourself is the best way of maintaining your "zero thanks" status...
oh sorry for not sharing what i did to solve the problem! here is what i did!
1. connect phone to pc
2. unlock
3. swipe down and touch the notification that says "usb for charging touch for more options"
4. select the option you want
easy

Connect your Android device with a USB-Cable to your PC
In the Wireless & networks section (you might need to click on "More..." on some android devices), Try to activate the USB Internet. Now choose the os .(doesn't really matter)
Now there should be check mark on USB internet.(if you're doing this for the first time. You may be prompted and that's ok)
Now on the Windows network connection tab on PC right click the the network you want to share->properties>sharing tab and check mark for allow other users to connect.

USB Connection Issues

I just rooted my s8+ with partcyborg's samfail and everything is working great except the usb isn't being recognized. I can see my phone on my computer and I can move files to my desktop but on my phone I get this message - "The connected device is unable to access data on this device. Reconnect the USB cable and try again." I have USB debugging enabled in settings. I'm using windows 10. ADB is up to date. I installed the samsung USB drivers. The device isn't recognized in kies or smart switch.
I'm at a total loss here. Any ideas? Could this be related to the 80% battery bug I was seeing? It's been at 80% for a while now.
Apologies if this is an obvious fix. I haven't rooted a phone since kitkat I looked around but the other threads weren't helpful.

So what do you wanna do with your USB connection? Just MTP (e.g. transfer files like you would when connecting a USB-Stick to PC) or you wanna do some ADB operations?
If you just want to transfer files, there's no need to have USB-Debugging enabled (in fact this is kind of a security risk when you connect to an unknown pc)

Yeah I've been trying to use drivedroid but it says there are issues with the mass storage. I'm going to send the dev a message with the ROM and see if there's anything he can do. For now just gonna flash back to stock
