The last while my HD2 wont connect with my desktop. I connect with the USB and the phone just charges i cant physically move files unless i change to Disk drive. I thought this might have been a problem with the ROM i installed (Dutty's Creme De la Creme) But the phone connects to my laptop as it normally would and any other computer.
I recently did a fresh install of my pc OS and i still seem to have the same problem i still cant locate the phone. (unless i choose disk drive)
Iv tried everything that i can think of to fix it but nothing. Can anyone shed any light
Cheers,
russe
go to settings, connections, USB to PC and untick the box for faster data sync.
"pair" ur phone with ur PC and after that tick the box again....
seriously i tried absolutely everything to try fix this, And that was all i needed to do ha. Thanks v much worked brilliantly

Just a simple suggestion but try cleaning out the temporary files etc. stored on the Athena also delete the partnership with the pc, uninstall activesync, reboot the PC then reinstall activesyn then reconnect the Athena. Try to sync the bare minimum first (calander, task, and favorites). I had to do a hard reset before I could get my email to sync my emails also.

It seems a PC problem... have you tried another PC? Are you using VISTA or XP?

He did mention that he tried several computers: "i tried it in another desktop, laptop but i have the same problem".
So the common denominator is the Athena, but not the OS. Starting to sound like a hardware problem. Did this start after you dropped it, or left it in a hot car?
I don't get a prompt to mount when I connect to my comp. I've searched the menus with no luck. I am really impressed with this rom and think it's just me. help please.
Drag notification bar down and select USB Connected.
Its has nothing in the notificationbar. On my computer it says usb device has malfunctioned. But nothing on my phone its just charging. I have windows xp.no internet on my comp either.

That happened to me once, I restarted my computer and it worked. I would also just tried another USB port after that
I've been having this problem for awhile. I've switched phones, computers
erased my sd. I don't know what the problem is.. Ive even bought a new usb cord. I'm going to buy a new sd card and try that. My computer says it doesn't recognize my phone. All I want is too put music on my card.. It worked so nice before the ota 2.1...i really appreciate your input.
It could be the drivers. See if it gives you the option to uninstall the drivers from Device Manager. Maybe you can add an ADB device. I forget how.
Hi, when i´m trying to connect my hd2, there appears the error usb port code 43.
dunno what i should do, the only thing i didn´t try yet was hard reset. All other things didn´t help.
I use standard usb 2.0 with windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.
things like new drivers, soft reset, spb backup didn´t help.
on my hd2 i have installed spb ms, standard o2 rom, framework ms 3.7 now. i tried to connect without the sd-card, nothing!!!
i can´t use the sd-card without the hd2. My pc doesn´t find it, but my hd2 does and i can use it on my ppc.
looking forward to your help

First try to remove the device from your hardware manager.
I do not know about Windows 7, but in Xp/Vista:
log on as administrator, right-click "my computer">manage then select Device manager.
In XP you will first heve to set a system variable to let you see hidden devices in order to be able to remove them.
(read this article)
Then try reconnecting the device.
Try to insert your USB plug fast and surely (most of these error are cause by slow insertion of USB plugs. Init of the device then can get interupted, resulting in faulty drivers/harware recognition)
thx a lot...but sry it doesn´t help. my windows still does not finding my hd2 and the sd card in it! I really often tried it with ghostbuster, but after rebooting when i´m trying I can find my divice ghosted in ghostbusters list
1)Do you have windows mobile device center installed?
2)Have you tried another USB cable?
3)Do you get this error with any other USB device?
4)Can you connect your HD2 to another computer?
the last thing i need to do is to try another usb cable
Im so saaad! i think its all my fault.. i copied everything from my galaxy s2 storage over to my new xperia s.. and now it doesnt recognize the phone so i can transfer files..
what should i do ? please help!
btw the phone is just awesome! wauw!
I would also like to know how to properly mount the storage to a PC so that it is recognised as a Mass Storage Device rather than a MTP connection..?
Its so annoying not being able to see thumbnails of the pictures/videos you are trying to access..its also annoying that the PC has to spend time on downloading the files before playing rather than streaming straight from the storage.
Anyone have any ideas? plz..
Rather than starting a new thread I just used this one..thx in advance
When you connect the phone, on notification bar should say Internal storage connected. When you go to My Computer you should see Other section, where new device come up, called... Xperia S. Double click on it, so it goes to Internal storage. Again, double click and... you can see internal content. Hope it helps.
Same thing happened to me.... Today onwards time n again seeing a mtp driver failed issue when connecting to my win7 laptop. It wad working fine earlier. When I switch off n restart the device,it installs driver correctly and autoplay option comes up to open the xperia s device. However when I click on open folder, I dont see any folders in my xperia s phone. Hence no file transfer is possible. How can I get my phone working again?
I tried to do pc system restore... Since it was working yesterday...but that didnt solve the issue either. Any ideas?
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
Do you use different USB ports? Try to stick to only one. I still have XP and mine is always working, so this is definitely PC and windows issue.
I have a Win7 64bit Home Premium edition VAIO.
when I first got the phone, I could use it to connect to PC Companion. It would also show up as a storage device automatically, and using the same I had copied over music and pictures.
However, after 2 days of use, I noticed, my phone was no longer being identified as a device. Also, it gets a Code 10 - Device cannot be started error when I look into the driver details.
I tried to reinstall the MTP driver, but it never gets installed successfully. It always gives a driver failed to install error.code 10.
I can still connect my WD hard disk and other usb devices.
I saw somewhere in the Forum someone had described that I needed to uninstall and reinstall WMP to make this work. Didnt work
I downloaded the Windows DEK to ensure that all the drivers gets reinstalled, that didnt help either.
I also restored my laptop back to factory setting......still no luck with the fresh install.
So, here I am with a phone where I cant connect the device to move in OR out music/pictures etc.
The problems are:
1) MTP driver gives an error while installation. I tried to manually select the MTP USB driver and isntall it. That didnt work either.
2) When I connect SEUS, with the phone restarted by holding the volume button SEUS identifies the phone and shows me that there are no updates. Not sure if SEUS can be used for exploring the phone. Most probably NO.
3) PC companion tries to find the phone. It says it may take few minutes to identify the phone if it has lots of files. After that the operation fails suggesting that PC companion could not find the phone.
I restarted both the phone and my device several times......did not work.
I uninstalled the MTP and USB drivers and restarted and got them reinstalled........didn't work either.
Any idea on what needs to be done?
I have tried all the ports and a different USB cable as well.
I even tried changing settings of the usb port as described in the below link..
Nothing worked
Is it possible to get the Sony specific drivers from somewhere?
Hi has this problem been solved. I have two computers, the win 7 one installed fine but it refuses to work on the xp one.
any help?

I've got the same problem, but you can still use MyPhoneExplorer from
.fjsoft.at
to access your phones data. please also read the forum, because it needs an app on your phone too.
fjsoft.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11454
Also I've called with the xperia help line about a driver pack, but there aren't any lose available, exept what is in SEUS or PC Companion, but they don't work for me.
Can also some tell me if SEUS also will provide the new firmware 6.0.A.3.67? because SEUS tells me that my phone is uptodate, but I still have 6.0.A.3.62.
Install the latest version of media player, that worked for me.
Try connecting phone in Debug mode. On first time MTP driver installation will fail too but after that disconnect phone, disable Debug mode in phone and connect. Now it should working.
If will not working then go to Device manager on your PC, find "Mobile devices", select something with MTP in name, right click and choose "Uninstall". Disconnect phone, connect again and now it should working.
Worked for me!
Hurray! I fixed it on my computer WinXP sp3. I did everything with MTP bla bla winmedia11 even dev kit MTP = No fix.
go to Settings-> apps-> handle apps-> all-> MtpApp <open it.
Clear data and cache. (restart phone if you want)
plug the phone in USB and wait.. the scanner/camera thing comes up.
Right click on This computer (my computer?) chose "Handle" -> device manager -> scanners and printers-> right click on the "phone" -> settings -> device driver-> update.
Chose let windows search for XXX and voila MTP device driver found and installing.
(I'm using Swedish interface so the names of step might be wrong )
I can confirm that delete data / cache on MTP App indeed solved the problem. Thanks
my computer would not recognize my infuse...
(btw i have windows 7 ultimate)
have kies installed on my computer, tried uninstalling, reinstalling..still no hope
when i connect my phone to comp it says device not recognized
i dont think there is any problem with my cord, because i just root my bros captivate today with the cord i have.
any suggestions?
Similar issue for me
i have a simialr problem but for me its the phone gets recognized but it wont let me do mass storage so i cant drag and drop things to and from my phone.
HOWEVER i did find a app that made the cable not neccissary.
its called "Software Data Cable"
it hosts a ftp server off your phone and over wifi lets you connect to the phone with a ftp client like filezilla and move or copy things from your phone without having it plugged into your computer, you can set in the settings, a username and pass so connection can be secured.
by default the app sets the port to 8888 witch for me didnt work so i used 6464
and it works fine.
-really recommend setting a username and password to be required to connect
yea that would be good for transferring data..
but what if i brick my phone and cannot connect to pc. then im screwed

Thats why i always keep a spare kernel and ROM that i know works completly on the sd card just in case, along with backups of recovery and boot and system.

This is one of the very real risks you run when flashing custom rooms.
