Please take the time to read this:I flashed and installed SkyRaider a couple days ago and I noticed when I connected to my PC that my PC started recognizing it as HTC Phone (or something of the like). This apparently really screwed up my drivers on my computer because I installed iKReaM and now I can't even get into disk drive mode...it doesn't ask what connection type I want anymore and my computer just says "USB Device Not Recognized". I tried uninstalling the HTC Driver Installer but that didn't do anything either. This is not good as I ran into the same problem when trying to root my friends Samsung Fascinate and never go the problem fixed. Anyways...my phone worked perfect before and SkyRaider evidently messed it up pretty good...to say I am pissed is an understatement. If you need any more info please let me know.
Please link me to the newest HTC Drivers as well, it would be much appreciated.
If no one can help I will have to do a clean install of windows 7, which is not an enjoyable experience

You will have to buy the pro version to push files. That would be your easy solution.
You can always use recovery to get into usb mode as well.

I can't get into recovery anymore using usb mode, computer doesn't recognize the device so no way to use it...and I would use the Wifi app instead of using a usb cable? I see what you mean by easy but I don't wanna avoid the problem...I have a brand new $1600 Alienware so I would like to have it fixed lol...if need be I may just have to do a clean install
I know this isn't your actual problem but just for the record, AirDroid lets you control your phone and push files to it with a web browser and wifi for free.
(I tried linking it but I guess I haven't made enough posts to include links yet, easy to find by searching the Market tho)
You might check under Settings/ Connect to PC to make sure the Ask Me option is turned on.

When you plug your phone into your computer does the phone start to charge?
If so restart the computer and plug the phone into a different usb port. Check device manager and see if you have it listed in your usb devices, or you have an ! over a usb. Most of the time this ends up being an issue with the computer it is being hooked to, not the phone. The computer isn't launching the driver correctly to show the phone that it is connected to a computer, and not just a wall outlet.
Even when I've had this issue, which is random I have still been able to use recovery usb to manage it. Make sure when your in recovery you mount the sdcard before enabling the usb.
Have been on Gingerbread with HTC unlock.
Did 1 try of the Bear s-0ff, and it only booted to green Bear screen.
Did boot image install with PH98IMG in hboot, but it won't take
a recovery done with PH98IMG. Does not charge with any cable nor
does any computer see the phone. Fastboot does not go to fastboot-USB
on any other computer either. It will boot into the rom that was on it,
but not recovery.
Please suggest ideas to get USB to connect for charge or fastboot again.
Thanks.
Bump.
Similar problem here, although S-OFF, ICS leaked firmware, and Nils Business ICS 3.4 running fine. Phone charges from outlet, but cannot connect to PC, fastboot USB, charge mode or drive mode. Is it hardware?
If I try to connect and fail, then reboot, the connection dialogue comes up even if on the AC adapter, and if I then connect to PC, I get pulsing "USB Device Not Recognized" messages, but the "drives" don't connect (and the drivers *are* properly installed.)
For what it's worth, I *can* access the cards (internal and external) in Amon Ra 3.15; I *can* run a Nandroid and a restore. I can even run adb via wifi, I just can't connect to PC. However, after trying to do so, then rebooting, the handset things it's connected if I'm plugged into AC.
Really bizarre.
I'm having this issue at home on my windows 7 pc, but at work, on my windows XP machine, it has no problem recognizing the device. At home it just says "Unable to recognize device". I tried using widgetsoid, but that didn't work either.
Don't know about anyone else, but for me, at least, it appears to be a hardware problem. Rolled back to stock 2.01 RUU and still unable to connect, and unit thinks it's connected when it's not. Rolled back forward and will learn to deal with it or return for warranty claim.
Dumped down the innertubes from my Rezound.
no usb
Followup:
Con247 sent me suggestions, directions, and a flashable
to try and get my Zound to charge again. No luck.
I called VZN support, got a nice refurb, and am waiting to
see if old one is accepted or charged back to me.

Yup. Con was helping me out, too, behind the scenes. (Dude is amazing).
Please let me know what happens. I know how to roll back to stock and get the hboot to even say LOCKED without TAMPERED, even though it says S-OFF. I'm just looking for a time frame when I have time to restore everything from this unit to any replacement.....and s-off that unit, of course.
Have you checked that it's not the computer causing the problem. I have 2 Windows 7 laptops and 1 would not recognize my phone even though I installed the same HTC drivers on both. Eventually I got it resolved by reinstalling the entire HTC Sync package with the drivers from that, then removing the sync program.

Thanks, but I've tried with 3 different PC's, 3 different USB cables, 3 different SD cards, and 3 different RUU's. On all 3, the Rezound fails to connect, and then, on reboot, even if it's FIRST REBOOT AFTER RUU, it boots up thinking it's already connected to PC offering me "charge" or "drive mode." If I select drive mode, it dismounts internal and external sdcard, and won't remount them once I disconnect without reboot. If I select charge, then pull the cable, it reminds me to connect, but at least realizes it's *not* connected.
And fastboot usb not obtainable under hboots 2.11, 2.21, 2.25 and Juopunut's ICS hboot.
So, that's why I"m pretty sure it's a hardware issue at this point.
My friend's got a Legend with a USB malfunction (which I'm supposed to repair ). I've gone through all the threads and posts, and I couldn't find anyone which had precisely my problem.
When the phone's switched on and connected to via a USB cable, it starts charging, and the pop-up to select Charging, Mount as disk drive, Sync etc comes up.
But on the computer, whether I try USB debugging, or Mount disk drive, or the others, it shows the error "USB Device not recognized". I've installed HTC Sync, and am able to connect other phones without any problem.
I tried connecting the USB in fastboot, but it doesn't detect it either (FASTBOOT doesn't change to FASTBOOT USB).
I just wanna confirm with experts if this' a problem with the hardware (Got a sample here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18420923&postcount=11) before I go to the service center.
Thanks
U might be using the wrong data cable. There are 2 different types, there is the old type that only has 4 connectors in the mini USB plug (phone end), the new ones have 5 connectors.
Another possibility is that the cable is simply just damaged.
I had the exact same issue with an external HDD that worked, then stopped then worked again then stopped, tried a new cable and worked without issue.

I'm leaning less to the hardware side.
I have had this problem before (not entirely identical) and after fruitless attempts in fixing I decided to reflash my rom and USB worked again.

Thanks for the reply guys Had to replace the USB port connector PCB.
Just for the info, I was not able to re-flash the ROM since the phone was S-ON and bootloader locked and couldn't get FASTBOOT USB to work.
USB Version...
Hey guys, long time reader thought I'd contribute my frustration to hopefully help someone in a similar situation.
I spent a few days wondering why I couldn't get any of this to work no matter what cable I tried. For some reason, my HTC One X didn't like dealing with fastboot through my computer's USB 3.0 slot. When I finally tried a 2.0 slot on the same machine, everything went through just fine...
Cheers!

This threat will indeed do the trick and your USB connection will be back
So i have a motorola razr xt910 and i was running the jellywiz rom before this thing happened. So what i did was, boot into bmm recovery, restored cid, did a full wipe and immediately tried to flash the mokee rom. When it was done, i rebooted and got a FASTBOOT FLASH FAILURE. Later, i tried to use RSD lite to fastboot it back to europe ics but the com did not detect the phone. I tried lots of stuff
1. Tried another pc
2. Reinstalling the drivers
3. Tried different cables even the motorola OEM one
4. Spent money to replace the micro usb port on my phone
5. Factory resetting my phone a few times
6. I tried with my friend's razr on a pc with all the appropriate drivers, the pc could detect my friend's phone but not mine
But all of them did'nt work, it is still stuck in fastboot flash failure for 3 weeks now. Any solutions? Thanks in advance

I had a very similar problem- the proper cable was necessary for my computer to recognize the phone. I uninstalled all of my USB drivers, and let windows reinstall them. This has helped with my SGS3 for recognizing the device. I used RSD 5.7, and having adequate power is imperative.
EDIT
When I say I reinstalled the drivers, I don't mean the Moto drivers. I uninstalled my USB device drivers in Control Panel> Device Manager, and then I reinstalled the motorola device manager, which reinstalled the motorola drivers. However, if your computer doesn't even recognize an unknown USB device connected, then it sounds like either A) a USB cable issue, or B) a USB A port issue.

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for trying to help. Okay so I tried what you said, I uninstalled the USB device drivers and let windows reinstall them rebooted my pc then reinstalled motorola device manager. When i plugged in my phone, the pc still did not detect it although i was using a motorola oem cable fresh from the box. It is definitely not a USB port issue as I tried pluggin in my mouse and omy thumbdrive into the other ports and it could detect them and install the drivers. So any solutions? I'm starting to miss her.
Do you have access to the fastboot menu at all? Any of the options, aside from AP fastboot? What is the battery status?

I have access to the fastboot menu all the options available and the battery is OK. Its just that when i plug it in to the pc it does not detect the phone.
Will the PC recognize the phone under any of the other boot options? (BP Tools, diag, BP SBF flash, Recovery, etc.) When I got to the point where my power source was adequate, and all I had trouble with was PC-Phone recognition, I purchased an OEM Moto charger from Verizon with a cable that said "factory data" on it. I wish I could be of more help, but that was the last step to fix my problem. It recognized immediately, and I successfully flashed. It sounds like you've covered all your bases on the PC end. Let us know if you find a solution!

Thanks for your concern. The pc did not detect the phone in an of the other options so the last resort is using that cable. Is it the same as the factory cable, can i make one myself cause i have a soldering iron at home. Or ordering one online would be better?
I would say go ahead and make one. Just beware, a lot of USB cables (most) have either rubber or hot glue molded around, so it is difficult to expose the contacts on the Micro B connection. There is a great tutorial by MotoCache1, located HERE, that will give you the rundown. It's worth a shot. My only concern is that the idea of the factory data cable is to trick the phone into thinking there is a good power source (without a battery/dead battery). I would think that finding the right USB cable would effectively solve your problem, but go for it, and let us know how it works. You can order the cable (if TeamBlackHat has them... or you can find one sold out of Cali on Ebay, I've heard), and that may be the ticket. Good luck.

Thanks for the tip. I will give it a shot when I have the time. However I was wondering why my phone would run into such a problem. Before that when i flashed roms and soft bricked it, i could still recover it using rsd lite and fastboot files. Secondly, my usb cable was woking fine until just before i landed into this mess. The phone could not be detected by the pc in usb storage mode so i resorted to using google drive instead of actually solving the problem.
By the way, could i have the model number of the motorola oem factory data cable you bought. I dont live in the US so i may need to buy it from another shop. Thanks!
You may very well have a hardware problem, if you were having connection problems before the fastboot errors. Could be the contacts on the micro female in your phone. It sounds like you definitely have a data transfer problem if you couldn't mount for mass storage.
The only number I could locate is SKN6430A.

I already replaced the micro usb port on my phone after i bricked it but it still did not work. How to solve a data transfer problem? Thanks.
Appropriate USB cable, unfortunately. Motorolas are very picky. Even if you weren't having problems with a particular cable before, like me (fastboot flash would start, but not finish, first time I encountered a problem), the right cable solved my it. OEM Motorola data cable.

Okay I guess it all goes down to the cable. I've got a SKN6378A from motorola but it doesn't work. So what is the appropriate cable i should get or should i just send my phone to the motorola service centre and ask them to help me solve it?
I'm certain they can diagnose the problem, though I couldn't say for certain what the cost would be. You may have better luck purchasing a used phone on eBay. I can understand your frustration, to an extent, though you're problem is turning out to be more complicated than mine! Motorola tech support may also be able to help, remotely.

Hey I Know You Said You Already Tried Using A Different Computer But Were They Different Operating Systems? I Had A Similar Problem RSDlite Wouldn't Recognize My Phone On Windows 8 But Connected Just Fine On Windows 7.
fastboot not detected
while the PC recognize the phone under any of the other boot options BP, Tools, diag (here the phone goes black), BP SBF flash, Recovery, why the fastboot is not recognized? im on a xt910, i have no system.. and i remember that previosly, he wasnt able to be recognized even as an mass storage... so weird.. then i messed up, and i cant do nothing because all the do able thing is via fastboot.. is there any chance to do something via recovery stock without getting operation aborted?.. oh, another hint, i mess a little with the entry of the female usb on the xt910, and now i have an "unknown device" maybe is broken.. and if i disarm it, and i cut a cable, and green and white should be data, maybe ill be able to flash something via rsd.. damn is so weird that the bp is recognized in rsd but fasboot not.. and i cant buy nothing, i just have a knife, two cables(i cutted one to put the negative positive directly to the battery) and wi fi. thanks in advances, and yes i know that is an old thread, but i dont know what else to do. /And sorry for my english, i dont speak it.
Hello Everyone,
I was worndring if it is in some how possible to upgrade my GT-I9070 from gingerbread 2.3.6 to Kitkat or other custumized rom without having to use odin.
I have a problem with connecting my phone to the my pc, my laptop won't regonize it, I think is a hardware problem.
Thanks a lot

Not unless you are already rooted. Does the PC not recognize that you have plugged it in at all or does it just not load the drivers correctly? Best way to tell is to open your Device Manager and plug in the phone. the DM should reload and show something, whether an error or not. If it does not blink out and reload when you plug / unplug the phone, then it's either a hardware issue with the phone's USB port, a bad cable, or bad USB port on PC. And it is possible for a phone to charge correctly, but have issues connecting to a computer if the data pins are messed up. If it IS the phone's port, the repair isn't that bad and could be handle with some patience and simple tools as this one does not involve soldering. You'd need this:

Dude really thankful,
As you say, the PC dosn't recognize that the phone is plugged at all, I try all the usb port on my laptop, different cable, and even different laptop and the same problem keep comming up.
I tried also to reboot in odin mode to see if my laptop detecet anything, but nada, nothing in the DM.
Also, like you expect, it can charge but no data connection, and whene it turned off and I plug it it automaticly turned on by itself.
I pretty convinced that it usb port is screwed.
So, to install a rom my phone have to be rooted!! no way to root it from the recovery mode?!
Thanks again

You can try to clean your USB port of the phone with some compressed air, in case some pocket lint got in there too. Doesn't take much to mess these things up, unfortunately. But yea, I doubt there is a way to root it in the stock recovery as most Samsung phones don't have this option. It'd take less time to just fix it probably then figuring out how to jump through all the other hoops to find a way around it.
