i reacently got my 3rd hd2
whenever i plug it into the computer it charges but will not sync or connect via disk drive
i have tried installing the drivers but it says device unplugged even when its not
can someone please help me?
search for the threads 'stuck in car kit mode'. compare the symptoms.
Look in ActiveSync on the device too... Make sure it says "Synchronize all PC's using this connection" in the connections menu is set to USB.
Sounds like a faulty micro USB cable / HD2 female USB port. Try with a different USB cable!
i tried all of this
i think it is stuck in car kit
also when i try and make calls its automatically on speaker?
Opps sorry didn't read in detail.
Have you tried changing this registry key:
\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Keypad\IsCarKitMode=0
At least for me, when set to '1', my dialler turns to landscape mode with speakerphone enabled. Not too sure how this would affect USB settings though.
Update: Check this thread out:
HD2 Stuck in Car Kit Mode
Seems like a faulty microUSB port on your HD2
its strange because im running android on it now and sync etc works fine
its just when its on windows mobile it wont work
i got rid of car mode whenever i hit home with the regedit
thanks
but it still goes to speaker phone whenever i call/someone picks up

it being a faulty usb shouldnt make it stay in car mode
but i think it is cause it always starts on speaker and if i turn it off when someone picks up it goes back on
the reg worked for getting the navi panel from autostarting and staying
all i need is a reg to stop auto speakerphone
any ideas?

Okay all. Usually I don't post and just lurk around here to find the answers to my issue. This time after reading 300 posts about Activesync and the TP my problem is still not resolved.
Up until last Friday I have been able to sync the TP with my computer running WinXP via the USB connection. I sync with my exchange server OTA but use the USB connection for file transfers. My computer won't recognize that the TP is even plugged into the USB now. It still charges, but doesn't do anything else. I've rebooted the machine and TP, reinstalled Activesync on computer, unchecked the "enable advanced network functionality" box, changed USB cords, verified that I have the correct three repllog.exe values in my notification queue, and even hard reset the TP. Still no luck. I would think that it's something to do with the computer except that I plugged my Mogul in to check and it synced instantly.
Does anyone have any more ideas why the TP would not be registering as connected? You all are amazing when it comes to stuff like this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
uninstall the Windows Mobile-based Device from the
network adapters section of Device manager on the PC.
control panel -> system -> hardware tab -> device manager button
restart pc and plug in the phone via usb and select active sync.
also the reason this may work in your case is i have had to do this for a friend.
windows installed the general rdnis driver however each device has a different
instance installed and thus the one device can have a corrupted driver yet the
other works perfect.
i see that u used another usb cable, cuz once it happened to me that the cable would charge but vista wouldn't recognize my TP "unrecognized USB device" , until i changed my usb cable!
Well I finally just went to a friend at the Sprint store and he swapped me for another TP. The new one works perfectly with the same setup that the other wouldn't. I can only guess that somehow the USB connection on my phone failed somehow. Just wanted to post this in case anyone else may have this issue in the future. Thanks for the responses.
This problem has happened on a friends, as well as just happening to mine (about 20 minutes ago). The usual fix which seems to clear it up:
1 - Hook up phone to computer
2 - On phone, start ICS (Internet Sharing in Start -> Programs)
3 - Select PC Connection "USB" and Network Connection of any type (if Sprint stock ROM, I recommend using "Sprint")
4 - Hit the "Connect" soft-key (bottom left)
If you've never used Internet Sharing on the phone, your computer should install some drivers... Once that is completed, click the Disconnect left soft-key on the phone. Now disconnect the cable from the computer.
Close out ICS or soft-reset the phone.
Once the phone is back up, plug it in - it should work.
I don't know what is getting reset in the phone, but unless I connect with ICS, then ActiveSync will not connect whether I soft-reset or not.
The same thing happened with my phone.... I took it to the Sprint store and they even tried a hard reset. It worked once after that then again it wouldn't sync. So they just replaced mine.... It was like you said.... some malfunction in the phone itself.
Hope HTC can figure out why this is happening.
Touch pro not sync
I can sync with my Vista Laptop and my friends xp machine but not to my xp desktop. I have tried many different cables. Each time I try something new, I toggle the "enable faster data synchronation box on USB to PC on try to sync then off then try to sync.
I have tried to delete all the usb drivers and rebooted to let the computer put in a new set.
I have tried to delete all the non running programs in my device manager using view hidden files.....
I have uninstalled active sync and then reinstalled it.
I have hard reset my phone a few times to no avail.
I went and bought a blue tooth adapter so I could sync using blue tooth and this computer does not do a good job of recognizing the adapter, but it did recognize it the first time but, could not pair the two. my blue tooth adapter is now coming up as a an unknown device
when i hook up the phone this is the message i get:
USB not Recognized,
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message....
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Kent
MCW junior member THANKS....
thanks so much, this worked for me I could not sync my tasks or calendar, once I did what you said here I did get and Error Code 67..then cannot connect saying remote party has ended this connection...whatever that means...but anyway it proceeded to start automatically resynching and walla..all of sudden my tasks and calendar were on my computer ....first time I was ever on this forum ....I shall continue reading and learning here...so appreciate your help...I love my HTC Touch Pro and have just figured out how to connect to my big screen tv with only an MP3 or the like cable...works beautifully...except picture on tv is not the clearest...I will work on perfecting that next if it is possible...
Then I want to figure out how to get the phone connected to my computer screen, just like I did to my TV...then your phone acts as a controller...it's so cool!!

Ok I just found a solution for this, at least under Vista.
Click Start > Settings > Connections (tab)
Choose USB to PC
Once I removed the check mark next to "Enable advanced Network functionality" and clicked OK, my PC immediately saw my TP.
Hope this helps someone.
so what does the faster syc option do?
Ok so I searched the internet and found the advice to turn off the faster sync option on the phone.
After trying everything else I figured what the heck..
So it worked.
(btw windows adds a dif driver rather then the window-mobile baised device driver... )
So what does this option do? What does it point to being the problem on the computer?
Thanks,
HA>!

yeah i was having the same problem...my cpu would just recognize my phone as a mass storage device... Read your solution. And it worked... Damn i feel like a moron should have checked. Thanks!
I am having the same problem except the enable advanced network functionality option is checked and grayed out so it can't be unchecked.
I am running a 6.5 rom...
Any suggestions?
Solution solved
If you go to Settings->Connections->USB to PC and uncheck Enable faster data synchronization.
You will notice below that it will say "(Clear this check box if ActiveSync does not recognize the device)"
Once I did this it worked perfect.

Think of this step as telling your tp to quick boot/sync if nothing between the device and the reciving pc has changed (ie: hardware, software etc.
Enables faster syncing and quicker connection and authentication between pc and WM device. Reason for unchecking this to make it work?, by hard-reseting or changing specfic phone information you've reset specfic settings that are registerd with your pc.
i was having this problem with my sprint tp2 and tried it and worked. wish i would of learned if before reseting my computer and losing some windows i had open and the hard reset on my phone and losing all my contacts now i gotta go back to sprint store to get them again.
Works on the Touch2
I had this problem, which was driving me nuts especially as it was intermittent. I found Dashrender's advice and followed it except for turning off "Enable faster data synchronisation". Brilliant, works perfectly, thanks.
But what are HTC doing putting something in the software that fouls things up?
I knew i wasnt loosing my mind!
I have been workn on phones for a while. And have just been freakn about these same Issues Sony vio with 64bit vista. Thanks for all the tips. only took 6 hrs of pain to figure it out myself.
I have a similar problem now with my USB to PC . i have used this usb cable for many flashes but now when I plug it in, my computer doesnt recognize the usb device. also TV-Out pops up on my phone too. what is that all about? i dunno what to do
just found this thread searching for why my tp2 wouldn't sync. somehow under usb to pc i had it set to disk drive instead of active sync. checked it and works like a charm, can even see it in my computer now.
HI Guys,
I've got a really annoying problem with my TG01. When i have it connected to the computer it will not stay connected in ActiveSync mode. It connects for a minute or so then will just disconnect on its own.
I've tried using the advanced funtionality selection and without it but the same occurs.
It's not an issue for syncing as i sync using the Gmail push features so this occurs wirelessly, but the issue occurs when copying files across to the phone as it will disconnect while transferring.
Also when i put into USB storage mode it seems to freeze the computer - sometimes it doesn't and will just open up fine.
Has anyone else experienced this issue or know how to fix it - it's driving me insane...
Oh i'm using Vista X64 and Windows Mobile Device Centre if it helps.
Cheers
Paul
@paul
I've encountered an identical problem after flashing the new update UK-ROM(on xp and activesync), I managed to resolve it somehow, unfortunately I cannot remember which way... Something in activesync settings & device id, I guess...
Try other name for device id, my advice...
I use my TG01 on a Mac. Unless I plug the TG01 into a USB port on the machine directly (strictly no USB hubs, even powered ones) I get this problem, whether using Mass Storage mode (allows direct access by the Mac OS to the SD Card as normal) or ActiveSync mode (which I can connect to a 'virtual' Windows XP machine running under Parallels in a Mac Window) for those programs (Apps?) that need to be installed via ActiveSync.
May be an obvious suggestion, but have you tried different USB sockets?
Failing that, do you have Internet Connection Sharing switched on on the Windows machine? Could any Anti-Virus software be trying to block the serial ports on the TG01. Or have you any other Sync or virtual serial port drivers (Satnav, Palm, iPod etc) or similar type of sync software running that might be periodically polling the USB ports?
Time for a handset swap

I had the same problem with my first TG01. Only solution I could find was to get Orange to swap the handset for another one.
I do think that it's a hardware problem as (1) my replacement handset never displayed this problem, despite having the exact same software/configuration and (2) an internet search on this problem showed at least one other user resolving it with a handset replacement.
Thanks for the suggestions guys - checked Virus scanner and Firewall but the same is occuring.
Looks like i'll have to give Orange a call.
Will they swap it for a new one or will it be a refurb? And how long does it take?
Also i am a contract customer but bought this phone on PAYG and just swapped the sim over - will they still be ok with replacing it?
Well i recieved my replacement this morning and have another replacement coming tomorrow.
The replacement was scratched and scuffed on all its corners, it looked like it had been dropped and one of the corners is coming apart.
The first call i made, the other person said they could only hear screeching like bad feedback between mic/speakers.
Not happy.... Let's see what the next replacement is like..
i found a way to make the tg01 staying connected to a pc: goes in setup/connections/usb to pc then uncheck the advanced fonctionnalities.

Tried that mate - it was a fault with the handset, the replacement connects fine, but is in poor condition and people can't hear me - so this ones going back too.

Well that's not very fair!! I always keep a screen protector on and only keep my phone in an empty pocket so if I simply put a cloth over it, I could pass it off as brand new! Now what happens if I need a replacement? I would expct to receive one in the same condition as mine Did you have to send the original first or did they send you a replacement and then you send yours back?

Yes, It's very annoying, I've been using Windows mobiles for ages and never have had this problem before. On TG01 with WM6.1 and WM6.5 as well, Active Sync cuts the connection after few minutes, randomly.
I've tested different programs to connect TG01 with PC like Pocket Controller (different revisions) without success. That's something related to TG01, because I have a Xda Flame and I can connect perfectly and indefinitely with it (I use XP Professional and ActiveSync 4.5.0) .
The only roundabout that I've found is connecting to PC towards Wifi instead of towards USB port (TCP/IP Connection). With Pocket Controller I can see my TG01 on the PC screen an edit text, interchange files, perfectly even if my device is in another room....
This is an issue that should be fixed with a coocked ROM ( but perhaps it's related to a hardware problem.. who knows?)
Cheers
If you are using vista or win 7 set up to your phone the "usb mode" at "activesync mode" without checking the "enable advanced.....".
Plug your phone to the usb port and go to the "device manager" of your pc, look where it says "mobile devices" click on it and at "microsoft usb sync"
do right click with your mouse and select uninstall driver. Your driver will be uninstall and after this will be reinstall alone.
To the new driver right click with mouse and select update driver, after a while it will give you the message that no updates found.
Close it leave to pass 2-3 minutes and go run "windows update" with your phone pluged on pc (don't unplug the phone on all the steps),
you'll see that is an update about 11mb (if you haven't allready install it) both for pc and phone. Your phone will be connect but maybe in future have the same problem,
in this case you uninstall and reinstall the driver from device manager and will be connect.
Now if you want to transfer files from pc to phone is better to set the "usb mode" of your phone at "mass storage mode" and transfer them at sd card.
Today i plugged my phone to the usb cable and instead of getting the usual connection option screen... nothing... The phone charges but no Data transfer. Did hard reset, still nothing.. now im stuck with the old firmware... any help plz?
might be the cable that you're using. i used before a cable that is not the original and the same thing happened to me, i.e. pc cannot recognize device.
Try Settings-->Other-->USB To Pc-->UNCHECK (enable faster data sync) this should help...
cable : original came with the phone (used to work up until b4 yesterday) also tried another micro usb cable that came with me N900 but still nothing.
I did the un-check "enable faster sync" still nothing
Did soft reset, hard reset using volume keys, and factory reset from phone setting itself. still nothing.. the phone charges.. but no data transfer.. its something to do with the phone because i tried multiple PC's the phone doesn't bring up the connection type option page

No harm in checking.Infact i faced similar issue once and the USB2 was disabled.It took me an entire week to diagnose the problem.These PCs have got a mind of their own and do mischievous things on their own without our knowledge.
But since its not working on multiple PCs,i am not sure.We'll hav 2 wait 4 a solution i guess...
hmmmm.. would a full system format and re-install be possible? and would it fix it? (talking bout on the phone)
HELP, HELP
SAME PROBLEM WITH HTC2 T0MOBILE
even on the boot loader screen, it charges but no USB stuck on serial.
even when on sleep mode and plug the cable orange led is on but it didn't wake up for choose (active syn or stoeag memory)
PLEASE HELP
i can do nothing, HSPL or rom upgrade
the cable and the USB drivers are tested more than 100 times
Most horror problems I had with the USB sync have been down to not having the latest version fo Activesync from microsoft. Uninstall the old version thwen reboot - now download the 4.5 version which I think is the newest and last version they made (unless im out of date) and then reboot the machine, then connect up the phone - but not immediately after the machine has booted wait a couple on mins, Windows takes longer than it often appears to be ready to go. One your hard drive led flashing light has settled down it is probably time to try. Then see if it finds all the devices in your phone.
If it doesnt go into the control panel and double click system, hardware tab, then select device manager and see if there are any devices with a yellow sign with a "!" in them. If there are delete them and then unplug the phone and plug it back in again. It might get past some stuck things. If it doesnt see anything new on device manager theres a menu at the top and look for "scan for hardware changes" this gives teh device manager another look at what its got connected.
If that fails open up the USB section under in device manager - its got a little plus next to it, press that plus and it open up all the names of chips you have for your USB control on the pc's motherboard. Write down the numbers and go and get the correct up to date drivers for that type of USB and install them. Then try the process again. Sometimes deleting the USB drivers and just doing a "scan for hardware changes" again, will reset the USB drivers and start things working, however it can get tricky if your using USB mouse and Keyboard to select anything if you delete the USB, because thats what the KM/mouse relies on to control teh machine, so have a PS2 mouse plugged in if you can. If that fails I would suggest reinstalling windows as its probably knackered. It amazing how things start to work wonderfully on a fresh copy of windows.
I have been where you are! And tried every suggestion that was given here. It all came down to the cord. I actually went through 3 different cords before I found one that worked and found that by accident. I bought an external drive and that cord works. For whatever reason, that is the only cord that now works for me. I only use it for data transfers. i use the other cords for charging.

Are you getting "usb device not recognized" from your computer?
You've installed the samsung drivers?
Was it working at a given point in time and now it doesn't work all of a sudden?
I had a similar issue this week where i got "usb device not recognized" from my computer everytime i plugged in the device. I thought i had not installed the samsung mobile drivers properly, or my usb drivers on my PC was messed up, etc etc.
It turned out that my USB charging cable was the issue. It charged my phone fine but did not let me connect it to Odin or even transfer files.
So my suggestion is to try to find someone else's cable and give it a shot.
I used an AT&T captivate cable from a coworker and that's how i found out it was my cable.

from desktop, windows button, in search box just above button type device manager, should be at the top of the windows pop up, clock that, go down to usb controllers, click the plus sign box. the rest was explained above.
USB fix
So I had the same problem. A new oem cable solved it. don't fight too long with this problem just get a new cable.
I have a really weird problem. My computer won't recognize my SGS2 is connected to the computer at all. Meaning no notification sound, no device change in device manager, nor any prompt to install a new driver. I've tried in both MTP and Mass Storage. What's even weirder is that it detects the phone in Odin mode and even installs the correct drivers. I've tried just about everything I could think of, such as the following:
-Cleaning the microUSB port with alcohol & new tooth brush
-lifting the microUSB connector slightly
-Using a toothpick to try to pick out any residue in mUSB port.
-Connecting while TWLaucher is set as default
-Using Wireless & Network setting > USB utilities.
-Taking out the sim card and external microSD card and booting & rebooting it.
-Restoring the stock Firmware
-Different wires, including an untouched mUSB wire that came with the phone.
-Different computer that doesn't have Kies or the said drivers installed. (Still didn't make a notification sound or bring up the "new device" prompt)
I just want to make sure I tried everything possible before sending it in for repairs.
EDIT: Oh forgot to mention that I had other problems before getting to this one. About a week ago Car mode would always activate by itself constantly. Even during use. Also the phone would refuse to stay turned off. After booting down, the phone would turn off. However, after some random amount of time, the phone would turn on by itself. During that time, connecting the USB wouldn't keep charging the phone. The phone would go between connected and disconnected randomly. Sometime off and on multiple times with in seconds. Other times would charge for hours and randomly stop charging. I've gotten the phone to charge whenever its connected now by cleaning the port, but the computer still can't recognize it as a device. Also the screen will randomly turn on, plugged in or not, and I have to manually turn it off again. However, if I turn it off right away it seems to lock up. So I have to unlock the phone the press the power button again to lock and turn off the screen. Don't know if this information helps.

Try another usb port, sometimes that helps or reinstall the usb drivers in Kies
Ignore, hadn't read all he'd tried.
Bump: Additional information.
Same problem here
I have exactly the same problem!!
My thought is that the USB connector get wet and stopped working properly. As fas as i know, USB connector is composed by 3 cables, one for charging, one for data transfer and another one to detect Car Dock.
It seems that Odin is using Car Dock cable (?¿?¿) instead of Data, so you can use Odin and not Data.
Also that would explain why car mode just kicks in by itself (short circuit between car cable and probably power cable).
I will also sent it to a SAT, since i tried everything via software....
I have the same problem. Try plugging into a mates laptop, see if it works on their one.
