hd2 usb port

hi guys,
I'm in Australia on the Telstra network, and have had an issue with the charging and sync through the micro usb port, i was running winmo6.5 miri at the time, and because of the usb sync issue i couldnt flash it back to the original OS.
is there anyone that could recomend a fix for this problem? what ive done is sent it away to be fixed through telstra, maybe they wont realise there was a different OS on there after replacing the (hardware?) issue, and then wipe it? that will be under warranty, but i have a feeling that its not going to happen and the service with no fix will cost me $50, is there any other way i can reflash the device without usb sync? or has anyone replaced internal hardware on the device before?
anyway, let me know
cheers.
you can reflash via memory card.
can someone post the thread discussing memory card reflashing?
Extract your rom and rename the RUU_signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh then copy it to your memory card, put memory card back in phone, hold volume down button and power on the phone, then follow the instructions, Make sure you use the correct rom for your phone.
This may help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrmlqrfCvas
i should try and get the phone off them and reflash it before sending away again..... ****.

[Q]My SD card is not being recognized

I am sure this has been posted before, i searched and looked at the topics but nothing helped.
I am running Android 2.2 FRG33 on my hd2 and my rom is ChuckyROM GTX + CHT 1.8.5 - 23128
All of a sudden while running android my phone didn't show my SD card (16 gb sandisk micro sdhc). So i took it out and put it back in. Nothing. I switched to windows with the custom rom, but it was still not being recognized. I tried Hard reset, nothing. I don't have a adapter so i can't connect my sd card to my computer. Also when i plug my phone in i don't have the option to mount as a disk drive
Can anyone help me

Did you tray to format your SD?
I just tried it. The sd card was shown in file explorer but then it disappeared. I formatted the sd card again but it wasn't even shown in the file explorer
Come on guys, can anyone help me please ?
Allthough I don't have any experience with Android, I doubt if that's got anything to do with it.
If you look up the posts about this issue, you might get the impression that the HD2 kills Sandisk cards at one point or another.
It did so with mine. I had no other possiblility then to buy a new one
I didn't buy another Sandisk 'cause I wasn't sure which was the culprit.
I'm sorry that I don't have better news for you.
First, check that other cards work in your phone...
Then, if they do, I suggest buying a MicroSD to USB (like £2) and try formatting it on the PC...

[Q] Boot from external SD Card

OK, I made a stupid mistake and before I throw my phone away, I thought I would at least check to see if someone has a recommendation first.
In CWM, I chose to format system, data, and all the other format options. It essentially wiped my device, and then when I chose to reboot recovery, it hangs at the Vibrant screen. I am now not able to boot into recovery. I assume that my choice in formatting everything removed recovery? Not a problem in and of itself because I can get my phone into download mode and use Odin to put my recovery and desired ROM except that my micro USB port is damaged to the point that my phone will not charge or connect to a PC.
In short, is there a way to install a version of recovery onto my external sd card and then have my phone boot from external SD card? Since I cannot physically plug my phone into a computer, the only way I can think of getting files onto the device is via the external SD card.
Any other suggestions are appreciated, including what to do with my new brick
You can always fix the USB port on your phone so don't toss it, unless you want to toss it my way!
I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

[Q] HTC evo3d problems help

Hi everyone,
after 1 year expericing with evo 3d everything is ok,
but in the last month some problems are killing me.
1- when i put the usb connection to download image, after i get sd error and cant see any images from gallery. (files are visible with android assistan, visible after rebooting, tried different cables, different sd, the system doesnt sees anymore images of applications, maybe some refresh problem?)
2- when i turn off the screen and connected to wifi or datamobile, both turn off till i turn on the screen, its a very annoying problem...
3- also the music application cant find my mp3 folder with music.
4- when i open gmail at first it says "no data connection", even if i'm connected, and clicking refresh works. (but i have to click everytime!!!,,,,
5- today i got also a strange grey icon of the battery with an ? on it, first time ever seen it.
other miscellanea information:
the phone is all original, i'm using apex launcher instead of sense, there is a lot of free space on sd, the phone never fell on the floor, nor in the water. camera is working great and all other function, no lag in applications,,
i hope some of you great xda master can help me finding a solution,
thanks to all.

ps. does exist an application that cancel all unused application files in the sdcard? thanks again.
1 and 3 sound like a bad sd card or card reader in the phone. The rest sound like an OS bug, which a factory reset should hopefully clear up.

What do you mean "cancel?"
thanks for the answer,
i guess is the sd card, il try a factory reset. the new sd card that caused problem is a samsung 16 gb cas 6, i thoght it was good.
i mean wipe the garbage, like all those files left behind from applications uninstalled and no longer used.
thanks again.

Well, normally when you connect the USB cable and choose to connect the USB storage then the SD card becomes unavailable to the phone but the computer can then access it. Both the computer and the phone cannot access the SD card at the same time... I will spare you the technical reasons but you should know that this is normal. After you are done copying files with the computer then you must turn off this USB storage mode so the phone can access the SD card again and then it will see all your music and pictures again (all these are stored on your card by default).
This should all be fixed OK by a reboot of the phone though in any case. Are you sure you rebooted the phone completely? maybe you should try to remove the battery once?
If you've done all that then you can try to repair the SD card by taking it out of the phone and using micro sd to SDHC adapter and inserting it directly into a computer then using windows to run a chkdsk on it.
hi,
i've done all you said properly, you know the problem came out because there was a differente behavior than in the past.
i remove securely the phone from pc and then is not accessible,
i didn't tried to chdsk the sdcard i'll try, but it sounded strange to me because its brand new.
i also tried to contact htc , they said " try to reboot, or try to remove the battery and the sd and start the phone again, the problem wasnt gone.
thanks for the advice.

Well if it's just gotten corrupted then you can just reformat the sd card. You'll want to backup all your data first so if you can't do that from the USB connection to the PC then you'll need to insert it directly into a pc. Once you've formatted it you can put your backed up data back on the card and put it back in the phone and after a while it will find your mp3s again. If it's truly a bad sd card then the reformat won't help.
Do you have another sdcard? The one that came with the phone or any other? Try putting some mp3s and photos on it and then put that in your phone. If your phone recognizes the photos and mp3s then maybe your current sdcard is the problem. And can you tell the the format of your sdcard? Is it NTFS or exFAT or FAT32? If it is UHS-1 card there is a good chance that it is in exFAT. To make it work on Evo 3d, convert it to FAT32 .

Access files on phone via USB before finishing welcome tutorial

Hi guys, does anybody know whether the memory of the phone (internal and SD card) can be accessed from my computer via usb cable, straight after factory reset and before going through the welcome tutorial? I want to make a factory reset of the phone, but that will delete the preinstalled photos, music and videos, and I want to put them back before doing the welcome tutorial, so that the phone is just as a new one Is it possible?
