HTC One S4
Alright, I've looked into this for quite a bit. There's 3 things I've found:
- Change charging cable (done)
- Install HTC Sync (done)
- The USB connector port on the phone could be broken (hope not)
Anything else I can look into?
- Rom is ViperOneS JB
I believe I've tried ADB devices, I haven't really done any sort of ROM changing so I've forgotten much of this, but I believe ADB devices doesn't show any available devices.
EDIT: Another thing to add is that the PC recognises the phone when in CWM but doesn't mount the device such that I can access the files.
EDIT 2: I tried Fastboot USB, only comes up as Fastboot AC :/
Another thing: I charge my phone using a dodgy eBay USB cable, I didn't use this for connecting to the PC but whenever I plug in the charger the phone says to unlock in order to access files on the PC (as it would if my PC detected the phone).
Sorry to sound desperate but I need a response, fast!
Uninstal htc sync.
Instal latest HTC drivers & adb.
PS
Windows 8.1 have a problem with driver.
It says the device connected to the PC has "malfunctioned". I deleted HTC Sync, haven't updated ADB cos I can't remember the link.
Installed latest adb, no avail.

I already have those.
Anyone at all know anything?
Bump :/
It does say unlock to access phone storage on computer and then when I do, nothing happens.
I have the same issue, and I've tried to access my One S from multiple computers (different usb ports, 2.0, hub, et.c., Windows, OSX, Linux) and nothing seems to do the trick. I'm completely locked out from switch recovery (TWRP installed but can't be accessed, possibly due to old 1.13 hboot).
Sorry not to be able to offer any help, just that I doubt it'll be fixed in your case by switching computers/os/ports et.c. since I've tried most of that already, and I must've been through 10-12 different usb cables by now.
Just about ready to ditch this phone.
Flash the original recovery.

Not sure when USB stopped working but nothing I've done let's my HTC One X (AT&T) connect via usb. I'm running CM10.1 and have tried both MTP and USB Storage and none of my PC's will see my phone.
I'm running TWRP 2.5, which I just updated today. When I boot into recovery and mount USB, my PC shows nothing. I boot the phone into recovery and the fastboot line says fastboot AC instead of fastboot USB. I've tried 3 different cables, an older cable that came with a MyTouch 4G, the HOX cable, and a generic USB cable. All three cables work with my wife's HOX, though hers is stock.
I've also tried on two different laptops (one vista, one win7), my PC (win7), even ran an Ubuntu VM on my PC and nothing.
HTC Sync Manager has been installed and is currently uninstalled though I do see the HTC Driver in Programs so it is there. Some times when I plug the phone in I get an error from Windows about the USB device not installing right. One odd thing is I don't see the device anywhere in device manager, nothing other Other, Android Devices or anything like that.
Developer options are turned on, with Android debugging, USB debugging notify turned on. Root access is set to Apps and ADB.
I've tried other things I've found such as turning the phone off and plugging it into the USB and letting windows detect that way. Pretty much at a loss at this point.

Helping a gentleman with the same issue in another thread, it sounds to me like a hardware issue.
I've got a rooted but not s=off HTC One XL which I'm trying to do s=off and get back on the latest version of CM. The problem I have is that I can't get fastboot to work anymore. From a command prompt I can do adb devices and get a response back that shows my phone. I issue the adb reboot bootloader and my phone reboots into the bootloader. The problem is it says fastboot ac and fastboot devices shows nothing. There are several odd things which partially leads me to suspect that my phone has something wrong with it. The only device that will show my phone through adb is my wife's ancient laptop, and I get a message about the USB port slowing things down. My work laptop, personal laptop, and PC all refuse to see the phone despite downloading HTC Sync, installing it for the drivers and removing Sync. Only the old laptop gets as far as the adb devices to work.
When I boot into bootloader, Windows Vista gives a message about unknown device and the device manager updates from showing the phone under Android and MyHTC to going under Universal Serial Bus controllers and showing as an unknown device. I try to update the drivers and point at HTC driver and windows lies to me and says that the best driver is already installed.
I'm at a total loss and can't find anything else to try. I have also used two different cables with the same results, one is a generic USB cable and the other is an HTC cable. I can mount the phone as a USB drive and copy/paste files. It is only in the bootloader that the phone becomes unknown.
Try using a linux bootable usb stick or a windows vm. It's more likely that something is interfering with the driver.

Hi Guys,
I've had a few problems with my N5 recently...
If I plug my N5 into my PC via the stock USB cable and boot into the Bootloader (PWR+VOLDN) then it will allow me to flash the original N5 firmware, located here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images, this would indicate to me that there is no issue with the actual devices ability to transfer files via USB connection... Right?
No!
For some strange reason my phone will allow me to push a full factory image to it and will also process any Fastboot commands that are sent to it but as soon as you boot into something like TWRP and try to control the phone's ADB functionality it will not find the device at all! The new MTP option in TWRP 2.8 will allow my computer to see my phone's MTP connection for about 1 second and then will immediately disconnect, the same happens when trying to connect to MTP from within Android too.
USB debugging doesn't show that it is connected when my phone is plugged into my PC and Windows makes the 'device connected' sound and then straight after makes the 'device disconnected' sound...
Any ideas? I am certain that this is an issue with my handset's hardware or software rather than any of the computers or cables... I have tried 3 different cables (including the stock cable) and also three different computers (Windows 8.1 @ Work, Mac OS X @ Work and my own personal PC running Windows 8.1 & Ubuntu @ Home)... All OSs and all computers run into exactly the same issue, device connects briefly and then disconnects.
I have troubleshooted issues relating to the driver. This is not the issue... Device Manager cannot even see the hardware after the disconnect.
Thanks for any help in advance,
Lewis
Also:
-Android does not detect that the USB is charging the device unless the device is booted with the cable attached (if it's not attached before the 'Google' screen then it can't see the USB input at all, within android or TWRP, of course...).
Having the exact same problem. Did you find a solution?

It's most likely a driver issue.

Not a driver issue.
3 different Nexus 5s, 5 different workstations. Other two Nexi are fine on all 5 PC's.
1 PC used for ADB forensics, 2 used for ADB development work, one known working for ROM'ing / rooting.
Phone has been factory reset, factory ROM'd from Fastboot. Connects fine on Fastboot. Will not connect on ADB / MTP.
On a fresh PC / phone reboot, the PC will detect the phone for just a second and then it will not reconnect until process is completed.

What's your adb version?
Went on for about 2 weeks, then suddenly went away on its own. I have no idea what the problem was or the solution. Sorry.
i have a nexus 5 which has stock ROM and blu spark kernel . i locked the bootloader while on the same kernel and again unlocked it . . the phone is bootlooping into twrp and the google logo . in twrp it says unable to mount data . i can access twrp . . i am unable to flash anything . it says unable to mount data/ . please the attachment
All I see is a google logo, not rebooting just staying on the screen. I am pretty sure I deleted the operating system, but I can't seem to get in recovery. What lead up to this was me not being able to connect the device to windows over usb, nothing in device manager, I couldn't even get adb to connect even through twrp sideload. But now I think I caused a whole new issue. I'm just trying to get back to stock rooted lol. Advise?
Edit: unpluged battery and replugged it in, got into recovery now, still having issues connecting so I can flash a rom.
Edit: I have the google usb driver installed from the android sdk. I still can't see my device in windows device manager nor I can't see it through adb. still searching around for a solution.
Edit: I found my old rom still on the device so I was able to install that to actually use the device. I still can't seem to connect to the pc in any way though. I have usb debugging checked drivers installed. Windows just doesn't seem to think a device is there.

Try toggling MTP and/or PHP in USB options.
Your device might show up as an adb device in Device Manager.
Edit:

Use a different usb port, different cords, or even a different computer, until you get a pc to recognize the phone.
I had this. It was because not all USB leads have data. Even some that do are wired different. Use the original or HTC work fine with N5 as I've both brands

Well on my 4th cable, what do you know it works just fine. Feel a little silly but thanks everyone.
Hi guys, i'm getting this problem and cant connect to pc and i think i've tried it all.
when i connect my phone to the PC, it stars charging but my pc doesn't recognize the device, and my phone doesn't show the notification to make it file transfer.
Could it be a computer issue?
it seems not, i've uninstalled and installed drivers (ADB and Fastboot, oneplus drivers, google drivers) and the problem persist, and even try it on another computer and its the same, the phone does not appear even on Device Manager.
Could it be the Cable?
I don't think so, i'm using the original oneplus cable, it use to work really well before, and i have even connect other phone with the same cable and the other phone is recognize by the computer, so it''s not a cable issue... but I still when to a Tech-store and try other USB-C cables with their computer but my issue still persist (phone isn't recognize, just charge).
Could it be a phone software issue?
Maybe? but i discover this issue 3 weeks ago and a i was on EVOX rom and i thought it would be solved flashing another rom, and i CLEAN FLASH Resurrection Remix Rom, but then the problem was still there!
cant connect even on FASTBOOT MODE...
BTW, before installing RR, i Installed OOS 10.3.4, and still my computer doesnt recognize the phone, YES i have enabled developer options and USB debugging is enabled, and USB PREFERENCES to File transfer, but its not helping me, the "usb for" option its all grayed out and cant change that.
Right now i'm stuck on a RR build without Gapps, and i lost ROOT and RECOVERY, and as you may think, i cant install any of them because i cant connect to my pc, so i'm in a pretty difficult situation here hehe, could you please help me out?
This helped me. Hope it works for you too

Thanks for your reply, but this didn't work because my device isn't shown on device & printers, or anywhere as far as i checked...
PROBLEM SOLVED.
I think this is the silliest solution I've ever seen, it was just DUST, i clean my USB-C PORT (with a mask xD) and then pluggin, AND VOILA, it worked!!! so keep your ports clean everyone
