"Connect to PC" doesnt work anymore - HTC Desire X

Damn, damn, damn!!!
I just fiddled around with "Startup Manager Pro" and right after this, i cannot use "Connect to PC" anymore.
It just doesnt appear anymore in the statusbar when i plug the phone in.
I reverted all the changes i made, but it still doesnt work. Deleted data for "Connect to PC", doesnt work.
Already read a similar thread about this, some suggest clean rom install, some suggest ticking "ask me", reboot, unticking, reboot and so on
but it doesnt work for me.
USB-Tethering and usb-mounting in cwm still works fine, so i dont think its a connection-related problem.
running mysense, i dont want to reinstall my phone from scratch
any ideas? :silly:

Install HTC Sync and uninstall it again. It will automatically install the drivers needed to connect to the PC

havent installed htc-sync ever before, just the driver package HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe and it worked so far
already reinstalled the driver package, no change
so imho the driver package should be enough, no need for htc-sync if you ask me?!?
i also saw a unrecognized usb-device found while restarting the phone, but after it fully booted the device disapeared?!?
but hey, will give htc-sync a try, at least its a straw to catch, thanks

Hm, that's weird...
Did this problem only occur on the mysense ROM?

well, the problem appeared after i fiddled around with startup manager pro (and reverting the stuff i did), it worked very well before with mysense, so im pretty sure it will be gone if i install mysense or any other rom clean.
think i'll do a nandroid backup and restore my apps via titanium backup pro, if everthing else fails.
guess thats the burden when you choose android with fully root over an ios-driven device, if you f*ck up something on your phone its your own fault and you have to deal with it :laugh:

Something is not running on the phone..Check whether the restart is happening properly...else remove battery and switch it on...
I hope you said once you connected the USB cable...you are not getting the option of connecting your device to PC..mean charge or USB mode..

adb driver

anyone have a 64-bit adb driver for the slide
Where is the 32 bit? I plugged my phone into my PC last night when I got home, and it couldn't use the driver I recently downloaded that I was using for the G1... Or do i have to manually update the driver again using the same driver INF file I used for the G1?

it took a few days after nexus release to get a proper driver so im thinking we will be waiting a day or 2.
I used the 64bit driver for the Dream and my Vista64 had no trouble connecting to my Slide in ADB.
Thanks Fordude on Android Fourums!!!
1. Used USBDeview to uninstall all of the HTC drivers/ports
2. Unplugged HTC from PC
3. Installed PDANet software for Android (free).
4. When prompted, plugged in slide
5. After successful report of drivers being installed and program, accessed adb just fine!

Worked great for me on win7/64. SDK and Android Browser both work, still need root though
Also tried to use Apps2sd update zip, needs to be signed for this phone if anyone would be willing.
apps2sd--http://paulw.hardmilk.com/downloads/r1-a2sd-desire-dalvik-fresh-signed.zip
and the instructions for ADB were found here
http://androidforums.com/t-mobile-mytouch-slide/90832-adb-drivers.html
I'll have to give this a try. I remember using PDANet a while back and it worked, so probably will work again. Thanks
awesome i got it working now thanks
Strange, I'm still getting an error on mine. When I plug mine in, it tries to install the drivers, and then the windows driver install box tells me that the device is not configured correctly. And yes I have USB debugging turned on.

On this phone, I had to change the default connection mode to Charge Only, and then also make sure Debug mode was enabled. It kept automatically turning into a mass storage device even though debug was enabled at the same time. Also, use USBDeview, it will find all your HTC/MyTouch/ADB/Android drivers installed. Remove them, unplug phone, reinstall PDANet, and you're golden.
the HTC Sync update for the phone was released for the phone. it should contain the necessary and appropriate drivers.

I've done all the steps in the proper order. Removed everything. However, my phone was defaulting to the USB Mass Storage mode, so I tried it again in Charge Only and it still fails.
I also couldn't find anything on HTC's website that pertains to poetik517's post. But I'll keep looking.
Thanks anyways guys, it's not that big of a deal for me to just wait.

Got it. For some reason Chrome had me Cached outside of the US, so it wasn't showing up for me.
For everyone's reference, make sure your selected country is US or just go here:

You'll want to remove the driver again via USBDeview. THEN make sure Charge only is selected, reinstall PDANet, and then plug in phone. If it still doesn't work, you are doing something wrong, trust me.

[Q] *(NOOB ALERT)* As Serious As A Heart Attack!!!

Well Some of you guys will be surprised that i am writing about an actual concern of mine. BOOBIES!!! Now that that is out of the way.. I currently operate a Samsung Vibrant T-959 with (ROM)(PORT)Simply Galaxy 2.7XE SweeyHoney.ZSJPJ W/OverStock-v2.2.1 And a Ka7 Kernel Wich is a port from the Samsung International series I9000.
My problem is that every computer i connect to, doesnt recognize my device. Ive tried installing new drivers as well as re-flashing the rom, and still my device is not recognized. I have noticed that within the rom im using, there is a ".prop Editor" in SGHToolS. I see that if i knew what i was doing i might be able to change everything that says I9000 to T-959 (which every computer recognized)
Ive done some researching about "prop Editor" and i havent left feeling confident about messing with it. Im sorry if there was a post that expressed this concern in the past, i haven't found one but that doesnt mean its not here. So in closing, Thank you And HELP ME PLEASE!!... And remember, we all where noobs at some point
You need to download the AIO toolbox on the computer you are using and Install the drivers that program gives you. Its an actual button the the program that says "Install Drivers"....the drivers needed on the computer are not included in the classic driver install when you connect the phone. Even if you search the internet for the drivers (the option it gives you) it wont find the right ones.
also make sure you enable debugging (duh)
::if i helped, thank me::

First make sure it not in Debugging mode
Then try something as simple as Settings/ Wireless and Networks/USB Settings/ask on connection or just enable Mass storage/ and it will pop up with a selection of accepting it and then your phone will be mounted!
I have a T959 Vibrant just like you,and Im running about the same ROM as you, and Im having no problems using WIN XP PRO 32 bit OS on my lappy! The ROM detects the phone as a GT-I9000 but I still can still mount it, or have a port appear if i use ODIN, or BayWolfs program etc!

This happened to my girlfriends phone last week...she is running bionix 1.3.1.....i thought something was wrong so i re-installed the ROM to no avail. I gave up for the night.
The next day i plugged it in to the computer...and boom....worked fine. I dont know what caused it...but after a day it worked fine for me after doing essentially nothing.
maybe try going into recovery and reflashing your Kernel (tigersblood overstock whatever) then fix the permissions and wipe cache partition. and reboot.
just an idea but it may work.

Thanks, It'll help alot
Yeah so i'm not sure which has the drivers needed, only that it's something i obviously installed a while ago since i haven't installed anything new lately on my PC. I've got Kies installed (never really use, but it has some sort of drivers i think), i've got Android SDK tools (again, might contain some drivers), and i believe i downloaded the drivers via the samsung site as well.
The one thing i do notice is that it shows up as "GT-I9100" instead of our model under My Computer. So perhaps the drivers for the i9100 need to be installed as well?
Sorry, wish i had a more concrete answer for ya . does anything show up under your computer's device manager when the phone is plugged in? (likely something with a question mark next to it)

It shows up as unrecognized device, and it always says it malfunctioned, it has never worked even when I had the original samsung rom
I was kind of having the same thing happen. Computer wouldnt see my phone. Did a little research and came up with this. I deleted KIES (from what I read on here somewhere LOL) and did a search for this( used bing.com)...Samsung USB Drivers for Mobile Phones v1.4.8.0 After I loaded that everything went back to normal. Took me awhile to find that info but now Im glad I did!! Hope this helps!!
Try uninstalling Samsung drivers, reboot, and installing it again. Also be sure that the USB port is functioning. It sometimes could be the USB cable (HTC USB cable doesn't work very well with my i777 whereas Motorola's USB cable works great).
Heres the app you need

[Q] Can't install S3 drivers

So, trying to install the driver exe file from Samsung's website and it won't work. Keeps saying that it failed to install drivers. And, if I have the phone as USB Debugging enabled, it'll pop up with 2 out of 4 that says it failed to install.
My roommate was able to install the .exe file on his Windows 8 beta laptop (I'm running Windows 7 64-bit) without a problem. And, the phone installed fine on his laptop as well. For me, no.
If USB Debugging is not enabled, then yeah, the phone is fine. But, since I want to root this thing, it won't accept the drivers. And, nowhere on Google, searching or Samsung's website provides me any answers whatsoever.
I've done:
Going through regedit and deleting all things Samsung related
Deleted every Samsung folder on my hard drive
Rebooted the computer
Uninstalled the drivers
Reinstalled multiple times
Downloading and installing Kies (did not install any drivers, still failed)
I've done everything I can possibly think of. Couldn't find any answers on here, either. And, doesn't help that the search function is broken.
So, anyone have any idea on how to fix this? And, please do not say "Reinstall Windows" because that's just ridiculous and I shouldn't have to do that for a simple phone driver install. I had my Epic 4G before and that all went smoothly.
Go do something in control panel and uninstall the samsung drivers that you already have on your comp
Then try installing
But I reccomend reinstalling windows

And, I'm not reinstalling Windows all over again just for this phone, as I also said. But, it doesn't matter, I already got it rooted through the roommate's laptop.
EDIT: I managed to get it to work. My other half had similar problems with device drivers so just had to have me remove the phone from USB, uninstall driver and then plug the phone back in. And, it actually worked.

[Q] Battery problem and connect to pc problem

Hello,
I have a very big problem with my Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300.
The problem started when my battery ran down very very fast. I can use my phone for no longer than maybe 6 hours, and that is in stand by. If I want to charge my phone till it's completely full it might take two days on the charger as well, even when my phone is off. I tried to reset my phone to factory defaults, but that didn't fix the problem. I even bought a new battery, hoping that would solve the problem, but even no luck with that. The phone also becomes hot in the bottom. Now I wanted to bring it back to the store for warrenty but there lies the next problem, my phone is rooted.
I know it is possible to unroot the phone, and it's nog too hard to do. But every time I connect my phone with USB to my computer, my computer doesn't recognize it. I get the next error message "USB device not recognized". I tried different cables, I tried on an other computer, but still I get the same error. I also tried the S3 of a friend on my computer and with his phone I do get a connection. So I know there is nothing wrong with the drivers on my computer or something like that. There must be something wrong with my phone.
Now the problems won't stop here because there is even a third problem. Like I said before I have rooted my phone, but I can't use SuperUser. When I start SuperUser it says "The SU Binary needs to be updated. Continue?". Then when I press continue I get the message "Installation failed !". I can't use CWM as well. I wanted to use Triangle Away before bringing it back for warrenty, but I can't use it because I can't use SuperUser.
If some one would have an idea to unroot my phone without using USB so I can bring it in for warrenty. Or find a way to get my USB port running again, I think that would fix my problems.
I spend a few hours trying to fix these problems, but now I've come to a point I don't know what to do anymore, I hope anyone of you is willing to help me. I'll be for ever gratefull.

Hi.
If i was you, i would try to install a official version, using Odin.
Also, my advice is not to use the original charger, Even chinese have better one´s...
Did you install Kies and drivers on your PC? Check that too.
Consider install leaked 4.2.2 version of Rom, since it uses Odin to do it.
I hope i gave at least some clues....

Thanks for your reply,
I forgot to mention that I have the official ROM installed, I only rooted it. But even if I would want to install a new ROM, my computer doesn't recognize my phone throug USB. So I can't install a ROM using Odin unless my USB port is running again.
I tried several chargers already, I don't think the problem lies in the charger because the battery drains very fast when it's of the charger.
I did install Kies and drivers, I even uninstalled them and reinstalled them again a couple of times. I even tried it on different computers. And the Galaxy S3 of a friend of mine does make a connection. So I don't think the problem lies there.

Did you try hard reset? Definitely without USB recognition, you can`t go to next stage....
In setup did you check optinos like USB debugging?
At this moment im out of options....maybe a poweruser can help you better:highfive:

What exactly do you mean with hard reset? If you mean powering on with home button and volume up button pushed, and then select "wipe data/factory reset". Then yes, I tried that.
In setup I did check USB debugging. The thing is, when I power on with home button and volume down button, I enter download mode. But even in download mode my computer does not recognize my phone. I'm not sure, but I think the computer should.
I'm really stuck here :crying:
