I just bought the Amaze today, and when I went to connect it to my PC to transfer music, videos, etc., nothing happened. I selected the disk drive connection type, and it still does not show up in My Computer. (I also have tried multiple USB ports).
It works on other computers, so I am guessing it is a computer issue, and if so, is there any ways I can fix it?
Any ideas..?
Have you tried to open it manually... Start>Computer and find the 2 that reads HTC Storage and Removable Storage.

I went to my computer and those do not show up. All that is there is the C drive, Local Disk (Q, the DVD drive, and BD Rom drives. No phone.
You have to install the HTC drivers first if you haven't done that yet.
Have you tried installing the drivers...

Sorry if I sound stupid, but how do I go about installing the drivers?

Weird, I never had to install my drivers. Just recognized it right away....
I also like using wifi to transfer things. Always worked well for me. I use wondershare go mobile. Download the app in the market and the file on the PC. Works great!

So while trying to get HTC up and running I discovered that my flyer is no longer recognized by my computer. I plugged my HTC thunderbolt in and it was immiedetly recognized. The flyer was stock rom, rooted. Anything that I may be missing that could help? Also windows says its unrecognized

1. check if there is correct driver installed
2. check is USB cable is ok
3. use USB port from the back of your PC. front one sometimes it fail (happened to me several times))
4. check if you have "usb debugging" tick in "application - development"
could be one of these above situation....
Uninstalled and reinstalled driver got it to show up intermittently. My phone shows up everytime but the flyer only sometimes. I've tried every port with with multiple cables. I'm gonna see if it got better tonight. I'm trying to upgrade to 3.2 and don't want a brick because of a damaged micro usb port.
Thanks for the reply

have you tried to another computer?
If you have istalled latest adb and HTC driver and Java then i think it's like what happened to me, I couldn't get adb to work and my laptop seems like it didn't recognize my flyer..
nickiberli was kind enough and advised me to use his tool AndroidControl, you can find it in his sig..just navigate to the Android Control folder after you unpack it and start a command window from there and it will hopefully work..

Funny. I was thinking the opposite. When you plug the phone into a computer and select the disk option on the phone, does the computer see the phone as any other USB drive (no special drivers needed)?
That would be the issue. If no drivers are needed, you could partition the sd card and use one of those bootable USB programs to try to make it bootable. Then plug in the phone, select disk option, reboot.
Of course, I'm just speculating and could be way off base.

Mac or PC? That would help out a bit. What have you done? That would also help.

It's a PC, Windows 7. I dl'd htc sync and googled htc drivers then dl'd that. When i plug in a usb cable then go to my computer it doesnt show anything. HTC sync also says no device found.
My experience with HTC sync is.....it sucks. But you don't see any extra storage in computer section? don't get a prompt on your phone to activate disc storage either?

hello guys.
i have Amaze for months and had no problems, but for now, i'm pissed off.
my phone doesn't mount Disk drive.
i mean, when i plug it on usb, there is an error pop-up saying "Usb Device Isn't Recognized" and it starts to charge.
i tried 3 different cables, did a full wipe, changed rom, kernel, but still no luck.
i'm running latest Energy rom w/ faux's kernel, S-OFF-ed, rooted, 4Ext recovery.
any ideas?
Might try a card reader. If it reads ok, backup all the contents then format the card. ( fat 32 I think) better check.
Just an idea.

i took out my sd-ext and put in another phone and it works.
i discovered another thing, when i insert usb in my phone, it says that usb isn't recognized, but when phone is plugged about 1.5-2h, than Disk Drive mounting appears and i can mount my phone as usb storage.
i'm confused

I can't be only one -_-
Hello All,
Here it is, charges fine, but will not connect as a storage device or for adb, etc. What ive tried...
3 different cables, 1 of which is HTC
3 Different computers (2x Win8, 1x Win7) - 1 of each which had never had phone plugged in
Many different roms
USB Debug is On
Ive installed various drivers, uninstalled various software, cannot get it to behave.
Sometimes the USB icon is in my status bar when im not plugged in, sometimes when im plugged in the icon doesnt appear.
When it does selecting htc sync or disk drive seem to have no effect.
NOTHING in device manager, no unknown, no other, no android device...not a thing to show its connected other then the LED light on the phone.
Im beginning to wonder if its my phone. I was s-off via lazy panda. I have since used Viper's RUU but by taking the rom.zip and renaming it PJ75IMG.zip and loading that from bootloader. Seems to have flashed stock although i still show s-off but locked.
Any help would be great
Had same problem. Ended up having to take it on for replacement.

I agree. This happened to me because of what I believe was a faulty charger. I think it shorted it out.
Try mounting usb in recovery.

I had, wont mount from twrp or from bootloader. Hit mount button and nothing happens.
If u install WiFi file transfer pro from playstore then u won't need to transfer files via cable. Does wireless adb work? Haven't tried it, but it would be the only thing u need your cable for. As long as it charges right.
Just an idea so u won't necessarily have to take your phone in to be replaced. Good luck

I appreciate it, but afaik to be able to root it ill need to be able to directly connect it. Plus it should just work. It used to but hasnt for a while. I thought maybe it was just my ROM but im beginning to think its a bigger issue. I have to check the best buy policy and see how they take care f it.
