stumped on this one mate, its working fine for me. when you say any device does this mean other pc's, if so the problem must be with your laptop
sorry can't be of more help
Have you tried creating another account to see if the same thing happens.....
im not suggesting that as a solution, just as a test........
are you getting any errors? I can access ebay without any problem
cant sign in on other pc's or laptops, signing in page keeps refreshing only error is invalid user name and/or password, but it's not wrong because i type it into my laptop it works on.....
oh yeah and my cousin and uncle have been having simmilar problems
Are you 100% sure your (working) laptop is connecting to e-bay, and not a fishing site?
And the other ones, also 100% sure?
It could be your laptop and/or other computers have been compromised.
on the different machines (laptop, desktop):
Look at your windows install folder (eg. c:\windows)
then: system32\drivers\etc\hosts file (so complete path: c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts )
any mention of ebay or e-bay in it?
if so you are probably compromised.
Other possibility: does any computer make use of proxy?
If so: working or not?
Is it different from your laptop?
no compromisation on any devices as i have actually been paid through paypal via ebay and payments have cleared into my bank accounts etc.....
it's really ticking me off mainly because i've got a new laptop coming tomorrow!
Aaaaaaargh!
sorted it out, i ended up setting up a new password and somehow it's working....... i blame ebays over the top security
Glad to hear you solved your problems.....
Good luck with your new laptop.

Since Monday morning, I have not been able to sync my phone (was dcd v3.0.4 when it stopped working). I have done much research and have tried many different things in an unsuccessful attempt to solve the issue.
When I plug it in, it begins charging but nothing else happens. No windows new device sound or system tray notification, no driver prompt, no windows activesync activity, nor any activesync activity on the phone (that little arrow icon on the top bar).
I have gotten this problem extremely intermittently previously but have always been able to resolve it with either a soft reset and/or a computer reboot. When that solution attempt failed, I tried moving the usb cable to a different port. I tried four or so different ports with no different results. I tried a different cable. I tried disabling advanced networking, deleting my partnerships (lost my contacts and have not yet been able to re-sync them :/), uninstalling activesync, and cleaning all the activesync files and drivers. I even launched device manager with hidden/non-present devices shown to remove the windows mobile devices (which were oddly not present, although this was after my first activesync uninstall/clean).
After not being able to get anything to respond, I thought it may be something not working properly on my workstation, so I tried similar processes of troubleshooting on my laptop with the same results.
At this point, I figured I had isolated the problem to the device, hopefully being just a software issue and not a hardware issue. At the time, I was still running rom dcd v3.0.4 with radio 3.35. I decided to flash to the newest versions in a hopeful attempt to restore my device's functionality. After flashing radio 3.39 and cooking and flashing a dcd v3.1.2 rom, I tried again with no different results.
Finally, I decided to connect it in bootloader mode, just to see what would happen (what is normal behavior for this anyway? does it get detected and drivers installed correctly?). It was detected as a usb device by my workstation but could not install drivers for it.
Needless to say, I have become rather frustrated with my device this week. I am not sure what the problem is exactly, nor what I could possibly do to fix it. I am on the verge of flashing a stock rom and *gasp* going to the Sprint store for support. Perhaps I finally dropped or shocked it one too many times this past weekend, and it does indeed have a physical issue...
Does anyone have any suggestions/ideas/thoughts? I would be very greatful for any input.
Thank you!
See this thread and see if anything in there fixes your problem.

I have been following that thread in hopes that something may prove helpful and have tried everything suggested, including attempting to clean the port (what would be best for this? anything more than just blowing into it?), trying the two Y adapters I have (emu -> emu / mini-usb & emu -> mini-usb / 2.5" stereo), running that batch script and working with the device manager (those devices were not present), and disabling advanced network functionality, all with no results.

If you've sync'd in the past then when you display hidden devices those devices should be present (at least faded). It'll be very strange if you don't see them. If not then uninstall the Mobile Device 6.1 upgrade, restart the PC and reinstall it. Then open up the device manager and watch what changes when you plug in your WinMo device.

I also thought it quite strange that I did not see those devices at all at when I displayed hidden/non-present devices in the device manager. I definitely have sync'd on this machine many times, I typically leave it plugged in throughout the day here at work. My machine is part of a corporate domain but I do not see how anything pertaining to that would affect my devices. On my laptop (used to sync here), the devices were present in the device manager, but even after uninstalling them the phone would not be detected when I plugged it in.
When you say uninstall the mobile device 6.1 upgrade, are you talking about the vista mobile device manager? I am on XP with activesync 4.5.
Also, nothing happens when I plug the device in, not even the standard device connected notification sound. Nothing changes in the device manager, nothing is found when I rescan hardware, I even uninstalled all the usb root hub devices and rescanned for them, hoping a complete usb subsystem driver reinstall may help detect something.
I even downloaded and ran two usb tools, one free usbdeview (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html) which displayed and monitored all usb devices (present and non-) and drivers and a trial of a usbtrace (http://www.sysnucleus.com/) which was a usb protocol traffic capture and analysis program. I experimented with (un)plugging the phone multiple times in multiple ports with two different cables while running these programs, attempting to find something useful. Absolutely nothing at all happened in either program, which makes me believe it is something either on the phone software or hardware.
I have a feeling I may require a device swap :/

Yeah, activesync then... I dunno, I'm at a loss.
Yeah me too, looks like I am going to have to flash the latest stock Sprint rom and take it in hopefully they can do something for me.
Went to sprint, it was a bad port after all, they gave me a brand new device.

Are you sure they gave you the brand new device? coz same thing happened to me a week ago and i went to sprint. They gave me the refurbished phone back. Physical condition of the phone is very good tho.

Well I suppose I am not sure it was brand new, but it had the screen protector and the plastic stickers still on it (next to keyboard when you slide it out). I also received an additional 512MB SD card that comes with it.
Did you flash back to a sprint rom via sd card?

Yes, I extracted the two NBH files from the latest (3.35 I believe) stock Sprint rom installer and first flashed the smaller image (bootloader/radio I think it was), and then the larger image (os) before I took it in.
The rep I dealt with at first was somewhat of a technical idiot and only served to confuse/delay matters but after I returned, I spoke to someone else and gave them permission to hard-reset, as well as mentioned I had done this multiple times as well as tried multiple computers and multiple cables, just to help them narrow down the possible source of the problem (as well as to block possible common excuses). After waiting around for half an hour or so in-store, a technician brought me a new phone and told me the port was physically bad.
All-in-all, I was quite pleased with Sprint's service and my free swap for an issueless and scratchless new device. I was afraid it was not going to be quite so easy, requiring more time and/or an insurance replacement fee. Not to mention the free 512mb sd card.
I had a similar problem, I was un able to connect to active sync but was able to charge. Everytime I would try to connect to active sync I got the "device is not recognized" error. Then someone on here suggested perhaps my USB port was messed up, sure enough I looked in the port and noticed one of the gold pins was flipped up slightly higher then the rest. My friend took a needle and adjusted the pin and it was good as new. Somehow I had lifted one of the pins.
Anyways IMHO it's good to look in there and just check if your having problems connecting, it saved me a trip to a technician and having to wait or go through reprogramming everything.
So i just got my new lumia 920, and i cant connect to the store to download apps and i can't connect to my xbox account either. It says check data or try again later. Im on wifi, which i know is working cause in posting this on the internet from my lumia.
I went through that last night. I could browse and sync email and everything else except connect to the store. The error, of course, could not be more vague. I tried using my live account to get something done and that also failed with a nebulous error like "Oops. Someone went wrong and we don't know what it is". Yes, seriously. I hit the feedback button and fired off a rather angry bit of feedback. After about 4 hours it just magically worked again and has worked since. I'm not saying it doesn't happen but I've never experienced anything like that with such bull**** errors for no reason on any other platform. This is how a really nice piece of hardware like the 920 coupled with a really nice system like Windows Phone 8 can still fall flat on it's face. Microsoft stupidity. Reason #14175 why Ballmer needs to be dragged out back and shot immediately.
I reset and it works great now

Server downtime also happens periodically on other platforms. It's really not that big of a deal.
It was just frustrating cause i just got the phone and i couldn't download anything. I reset it and it worked though.

It MAY be necessary to log in the first time to your microsoft account via cellular. Once you've done it once, it seems to be happy using wifi going forward.
...it really is a quirky device. At least mine is.
The other day, I was trying to use Winamp to sync my (up-to-date, stock, rooted) phone's music playlist using a Windows 7 computer, which I had done numerous times before. Just to eliminate the obvious, yes, the computer has a recent, working version of the HTC usb drivers installed, and yes I had the phone in Settings->Connect to PC->Disk Drive mode. No matter what I did, the computer would not recognize that the phone was plugged connected to it, and likewise the phone would not show that it was connected to a computer.
I was almost out of of options, but, as a last resort, I hooked it up to my linux (ubuntu 11.04) computer, which a couple of months ago had given me symptoms that were identical. Et voila! It recognized the phone with no problems whatsoever. You savvy readers here might remember that I posted about some of my pain with the linux box back then, because I was trying to update one of the botched OTA's that had left me unable to re-root my phone. So I booted it to the version of Amon Ra that I'd had problems with back then. Again, no problem. Go figure.
I then disconnected the phone, and hooked it back up to the Windows machine: No problem. Very, very puzzling.
I did a search here some time ago, and I don't remember seeing anything like this happening to anyone else. Regardless, just to be thorough, I'm going to ask once more: Have any of you characters heard of this kind of phenomenon with a Rezound?
many thanks!

I dealt with almost this exact problem of the PC connection with another user. In fact I've supported the user on three devices. His issue we eventually mostly figured out was with the sdcard mounting. In that process which seems so simple of plugging in the phone when it unmounts and remounts then afterwards unmounts and remounts, it would get part of the process and not finish the other part. He ended up thinking it was a faulty device and buying a new phone then eventually saw it on the new phone (different brand different OS). He called the sdcard company because it was a high end sdcard, the tech immediately said "I'm really sorry but almost every call we have had has been for this one problem with this one card. After testing we found a faulty internal chip, so we will gladly send you a brand new card that's bigger and better."
That was his experience, the problem is there's a lot of places in the food chain that could be a hardware failure, software failure or driver issue and would mimic the symptoms fairly closely.

Thanks so much for sharing your experiences on that issue!
I have to say I thought of that some time ago, but since this mounting thing affected the internal one too, I didn't put too much energy into following up on that. I will now.
Cheers!

Going to take this a completely different way since I have never had the issues you describe, but had another thought...
I used to WinAmp for a long time, remember that with WinAmp if you have a WiFi network you can sync music wirelessly, it is how I did it all the time and to be honest if you have a solid WiFi network, it is faster than USB. All you really need is WinAmp on your PC and phone and a WiFi network.

And you need the winamp app installed on your phone; I'm a minimizer.
I appreciate the suggestion, but the winamp thing was only the vehicle that led to my discovery that the problems I had a few months ago connecting my phone to a computer weren't an anomaly. That experience left me with the feeling that my Linux system was somehow screwy.
Now I know that that wasn't the problem, and since I'm going to need to be able to connect reliably to a computer for adb/fastboot access as well, it motivated me to get some help figuring out why that was happening.
Cheers,

Hey guys, i got a scareware pop up last night and rebooted my phone.
Then it popped p again so I googled I should disable my ad preferences. but While I was looking through my google stuff I found a ton of these "modules"
I don't remember them being there before. Between the Chimera Virus and the Chimera tool floating around out there, and not being able to find good information on it..., , it makes me pretty paranoid.
I noticed in settings that I have these Chimera Modules in the bottom part of my google services info.
Does anyone know what those are and why they are there?
First of all, this would be better suited for the Q&A forum.
To somewhat answer your question, if I were to take a guess, something you installed, probably in the hopes of gaining root or unlocking your device, was either malware or a scam. There is a site for this tool which looks really shady. I've never heard of it, so I could be completely wrong. If I were you, I would uninstall your most recently installed apps and see if it goes away. Otherwise, I would do a factory reset to protect myself.
Would second the factory reset - if you're rooted I'd also take a scorched earth approach and wipe as much as I can within recovery just to make sure.
I found similar modules on my phone in Google Setting "[internal] section. But from what I can see inside it lists only packages from Google Services and after a bit of searching Google Services contains package with "chimera" in its name namely: "com.google.android.chimera.container.*". Therefore I think it don't have to be connected with any adware/spyware etc. you might have accidentally installed on your phone. Maybe it showed up lately on many phones with some update or it was there already for sometime? Waiting to hear about it from other users.
how can you make your ph delete what is added because ive got stuff on my ph & dont know what all has been added since i bought ph had 1 yr my furst i know nothing about them

Hi comprohacked .. Its nice to know in not the only one .. I am a network engineer with a bachelors in computer science, so I'm much more familiar with the things I have seen. Fighting it has only proven to render my devices unusable, but it has been extremely educational for me. I can tell you some of the things vie learned so far: first of all they use UPnP and a vulnerability in Adobe to gain access. They even moved my Adobe from the programs list to my windows update list. They are very stealthy as my system event codes show them errorig out hundreds of times until they get a success, then continue, what they were doing was elevating their access beginning with default then user, up to admin, and continue until the have system access .. Basically as far as programs or anything else, its windows itself making requests. Then they use what's called a root kit, they actually flash your bios and create a second bios that can not see or access. They map your I/Os and reserve memory space on your periphials ad flash the ROMs of your video, audio, network card, USB ports and really everything else .. And while they take complete root control and ownership of all the hardware, they use network discovery to find every device, cell phones, playstations, Xbox,notebooks, routers, modems, anything connected and do the same thing to all of these, then set up a raid, meaning fault tolerance, or lets just call it a backup of each system on other systems on the network, that way even if you get passed the b
Mbr rootkit somehow, and somehow able to regain control of your PC or phone and reset it, they just put it back as soon as it boots up again. They basically sandbox you as a child environment, while they have a parent profile that overlays whatever they want you to see. They Grey out buttons for setting that can potential trip them up, proxy your web traffic .. They configure servers for your dns and the list goes on. You see on captures that your dns traffic is going out to your loopback address of 127. The will have small portion of your hard drive where they keep whats called metadata, lets just say they have backups of their backups .. Ive experienced everything you listed and more .. They use legitimate software from windows or google but hide the rest,and since they control the OS they tell the programs whrrr they can and canyon look.

Have u found a soultion
My husband and I are currently dealing with the same issue down to a t. Any more info on any of it so far?
Same thing
It started about 2 months ago. First i use comcast internet. Comcast was out front on the pole doing something idk cause i dont have neighbors an my internet was fine. Then a week later a public utilities truck was across the street on a pole that didnt have a transformer on it. They installed a box at the top. Proware technologies. I walked over to them and they hurriedly got down and left. I thought strange. So i went to my desktop and looked at my network and even wierder is i had a some pc connected by ethernet to my comcast modem that was sitting in front of me. I only have 1 computer hooked up by ethernet that i know of and can see only one cable to my pc. So i hurriedly copied all the info from mac address etc of the mysterious connected pc. After about an hour they had chsnged my name of hetwork and had hidden there pc. Theres a lot more that i wont blab on about but i think its the FBI. The box came down last weekend in the middle of the night- but i still cant get any internet company they all tell me they dont service my area when ive had them in the past. Im connected to sum modem i have no idea where cause its not the one i should be connected to. Its crazy. I feel crazy. Drives me crazy! Friends cell phones get all screwed up wen they come over. Its aweful. What can i do?
My wife and I have also had this same NOBUS level hack done to us and after 9 months I realized a few tricks that have shut them down several times but they always seem to figure some new hack to thwart my efforts until I finally took a screwdriver and shorted out my MOBO out of shear frustration. That seemed to work! Lol well now I do everything on my cell that I had to root to eliminate their emulated files and restore a custom ROM. As for the PC that is a harder nut to crack...
Thank God, I thought I was losing my mind,3 laptops, 2 cable companys and 3 different phones, and now these modules, my daughter thinks I'm nuts but I know what I see and I know what I have done, factory resets don't work, I keep changing my password info my wifi info even my numbers, if I'm not using my phone or wifi I keep it disconnected this is crazy, what's the purpose.
OK I've done some extensive research on this google play services chimera. It's not a bug or virus or . It's google play services latest secret weapon to control our devices. It's a container full of different modules. I've blocked some through amplify. They start as an alarm. Then turn to wakelocks. One is a system update server that runs continually while our phones try and sleep. Killing our batteries. I'm running Oreo Android 8.0 and have just recently started seeing this said activity. It's no wonder normal people that don't root their devices have no idea what these are. Being slipped in on updates. They know what we know and it's their efforts to go around that and try different things to regain control of anything computerized. Take for instance. Was talking in conversation the other day. Mentioned New Nike shoes. Low and behold next day it's in my damn Facebook feed. Uninstalled fb, that's just way to much for me. Hope this might help. But definitely not a virus
Oh my god i am so glad i found this i am crying. I literally thought i might be insane. Been dealing with this for over 2 years but has lately gotten worse by a mile. For now I'm just relieved I have company. I do not believe it is Google. There is a "real" Google out there and everytime I interacted with them they were helpful. Currently though I'm connecting to some imposter "Google" in India. I also have comcast but the router in my basement is NOT the one I am connecting to. Everyone thinks i am a lunatic when i tell them any of this. I kept seeing the term Firefly come up and it feels important
Same same
Comprohacked and ppl below. Exact same thing has been happening to me for months. No one will help not even family. No one speaks to me. I knew nothing at all at first. Ive been scammed etc. Phone after phone. About 30 this yr. I dont know if this will work because everytime i type something om a forum it never sends or theres always an issue with it redirecting etc. I dont even log onto google anymore om a new phone but theres still a hidden account connected and **** downloading itself. Photos get deleted. I have a daughter now and ive lost everything. Im embarrassed for her to see how lonely i am when she grows up. Its all government related. I do know that and how corrupt this world is. How google are allowed to do whateber they want. Im on medication now. I dunno if anyone has had any luck on how to claim there lives back but im just about done for good. Just thanks to everyone coz i know im not alone.
What the hell is going on in here? I feel like I'm scrolling through a conspiracy post on reddit or something. I need more info!

It's funny you say that. Not considering the other ways described previously in this post, I just knew my modem was the source of my issues, thinking I had eliminated all other possibilities. Ironically a screwdriver through the Ethernet device (not sure of exact terminology here) took a screwdriver through the center of it. Worked well for turning it into trash lol.

help? I recently had a hard drive issue, so i got a new hard drive and did a fresh windows 10 install. All seems to be working fine now, except I can NOT get windows to see my phones - captivate glide, s5 neo, or galaxy s7 all samsung - at all!!! The notifications say samsung_android is connected, but i cant access the files or folders at all, "my computer" brings up zilch as far as even recognizing the device fully, let alone files and folders. i dont remember having this issue before, so some update must have buggered something up somewhere along the line
more and more as the years go by, I crave windows 7. too bad support is ending in 3 months...
can anyone offer any help? Ive got drivers, though those were hard to find and didnt auto install so maybe not the *right* drivers. ive tried each version of connection several times (ptp, mtp) no dice on either. this is so irritating. Ive been literally having to remove my SD card and plug it in directly, and bluetooth between my devices to transfer anything which takes *way* longer on top of having to sit right there and click "allow for another 300 seconds" every so often.... why in the world would windows 10 restrict things SO much??
it wants you to connect your phone directly to your OS with a phone number and having to add an app to your phone. uhhhh, no thanks!!! How can i get the good old fashioned way back? I hadnt updated yet with my old hard drive, and now that this is a new install i cant go back. this is so frustrating. I just want access to my GD pictures without having to dismantle my devices.... and yes its a legit samsung cable and plugged directly in and all of that basic BS. this exact setup with this exact cable worked before. so wtf has changed with this august update (i delayed several times) to make things so unbearably complicated?
please help a frustrated user out!
No one else is having this issue?
