Today I got the HTC One from a guy that works at a T-Mobile store. The phone came rooted but I wanted to unroot it. We went into TWRP and touched wipe. We wiped out everything including the operating system. I tried connecting the phone to my computer but it wouldn't recognize it. I'm not sure if its because of my laptop which is a windows 8 or because the phone might have USB debugging disabled. I have absolutely no experience in this and I have no idea what to do. :/ Any advice would be nice Thank you!
So wait, can you access recovery? I haven't gotten around to rooting mine yet so not 100% the process for the one but if you can access recovery you should be able to mount usb storage then the computer will pick it up.

So I have searched everything and and am having a small problem with rooting my phone. The batch file runs and when I select to Restore My Data it initially (on the phone) says Restore Starting... then immediately says Restore Ended with nothing happening to the phone, even after sitting for a few mins. Rooting isn't new to me either I just don't understand why this isn't working properly.
Thanks for any and all help.
Do you have usb debugging enabled and when the phone is plugged in to the computer and you have it on "mtp" mode and not charge only?

Yes and yes.
Hmm I had issues the first time with running the bat file for root. I had to use a different computer for it to work. Also when you plugged the phone in while in mtp mode did all the drivers install should have been the drivers.

Yea all the drivers were installed properly, I can access everything I need to on the phone from the computer. I'll try it on a different pc and see what happens.
This phone does seen temperamental at times while rooting. If suggest maybe hitting up the IRC for more help. You may be on the new update which will require you to lgpnst to older firmware then root.

Ahhh yes, I didn't think of that... the update would definitely pose an issue. Thanks!
Computer wont recognize my device anymore. I have downloaded every set of drivers from this forum, from the samsung website, I even tried downloading kies but it wouldnt recognize it either.
It worked before I did the following and now it doesnt.
First I rooted my phone with route 66 everything was going fine until I made the huge mistake (not knowing) and downloaded rom manager so that I could do a nandroid backup. Well as we all know now, you cant do that. So I got the deadly uellow verizon triangle saying unauthorized software bring it to the store. So I went through the xda forums and found the one that told me how to fix it. I used odin with the alternate restore and got it back up and running. So I wanted to go back and use adams one click unlock and root. I got everything downloaded and ready. I put my phone in developer mode and plugged it in. It starts trying to find the drivers and then it flips from debugger mode to media mode everytime. It starts seeing it as everything but a samsung phone. It says found camera and even cd rom but not the phone. I have read through everything and tried everything I could think of but I am at a loss. PLEASE HELP

Turn off your phone, connect to your computer with the USB cord and turn back on your phone. It should start the drivers and connect to your device.

I tried that, it is still not seeing it like it is supposed to. I was able to get Odin to recognize it so that I could flash the rooted stock again but I can't get Casual Jailbreak to work. I'm not sure if it is because the drivers or not but I am guessing it has something to do with it. Every time I plug it in, it starts searching for drivers and then always switches from usb debugging mode to media mode. The checkmark is still in usb debugging but I don't think it actually is. You can watch it go from device as installer to media.
Are you using the driver install app (zadig i think its called) to install the heimdall driver on top of "gadget serial". Looking at your other post it seems like a driver issue. One thing ive noticed is, if odin can see the device then heimdalll cant and vice/versa. So if odin can see it you have the wrong driver, if you are infact installing the heimdall driver my second question is, does windows xp x64 use driver sig enforcement like win7 x64 does? if so you probably need to disable it. Just throwing my $0.02 out there.
Are you using the official USB cable? I had an aftermarket cable that had worked for months, then decided to quit working. It works with other devices just not the Note2. Changed to my original cable and all is well.

Also try plugging it in to the PC and not through a hub/keyboard/monitor port

If it sees the device in the dumb verizon cd mode thing and ptp than it can see adb. Its not the cable. however i would try setting the usb debugging first than set it to camera mode. adb should still be able to pick it up
Thank you everyone for your help, I finally got the drivers working and the bootloader unlocked

How? Fixing to unlock my spanking new note also. I had the drivers issues late last night. When installing drivers through the Z app I never could get it to install Samsung usb drivers nor did I see serial gadget option. Running Windows Vista 64bit. I know I have Java.

Dear readers,
I've got an HTC One S Ville on which CM Mod was running. I am travelling at the moment, on the other side of the world, so I really need my phone!
Once connected to wifi it asked to install 10.1.3, which I stupidly accepted.
Since then I'm stuck in a bootloop. I've tried a factory reset, which didn't help. I know reflashing boot.img might help, however I cannot connect my phone to any pc, because it doesn't recognize the device. Even a clean pc (borrowed laptop, I don't have one), on which I installed the HTC sync driver and BMP driver downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191279 doesn't show any approachable device.
I've given up and am lost in a forest of unknown tools etcetera and wish I'd never installed CM mod in the first place.
Who knows what to do?
My HBOOT is 2.15 and I can still enter the recovery console etc.
However, in the recovery console I cannot mount /sdcard, it gives an error.
Really, is it so ****ed up that no one knows an answer?
Well I assume you don't have a nandroid or you would have tried that already
At this point you either hope your phone supports otg and can mount an external flash drive or you need to install fastboot and adb and drivers or figure a way to get the sdcard to work, there really isn't a magic answer sorry

Hello, usually don't have much issues with this sort of thing as I have decent experience with this.
I'm stuck on this particular issue though as my phone is in a constant boot loop. I was planning on just reflashing a ROM on to the device, but in the bootloader or recovery my pc will not detect the device at all so I am unable to run fastboot or adb commands on it. I have tried this on 3 pc's(2 Windows 8.1 and 1 Windows 7).
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
Windows 8 & 8.1 will not work. I used the DNA toolkit on a Windows XP laptop to get my phone out of the bootloop (when you were using the Windows 7 computer, were you using the USB 2.0 port? It's been mentioned in many posts that USB 3.0 will not work). Don't use the drivers from HTC SYNC, the proper drivers are here on XDA (just Google it).

Yes it was on USB 2.0. Drivers won't do me any good if device manager won't even detect the device is plugged in to begin with. That is the issue is I have no way to flash a new ROM because I can't even get device manager to pickup that the device is plugged in on any computer.
Until I switched to a Windows XP computer, my phone wasn't recognized either, no matter how often I updated the drivers.

You can't update the drivers for a device though until it detects there is a device there. There shouldn't be any issue with Windows 7 being able to detect a DNA.
I never had an issue with this until now and now I'm just stuck in either a boot loop or going into recovery.
I would be willing to to try XP for the fun of it when I get an opportunity, but don't feel it is necessary.
If I do a factory reset from CWM Recovery I can get into Cyanogenmod and go through the initial setup steps. After that it sits at a black screen, but I can drag the notification drawer down and get into the settings. Only have a minute or two before it reboots back into a boot loop.
Surely there has to be some way to fix this...
I managed to get it to stay on. Here is what I did to transfer a new ROM over. Since all I could access on the phone was the settings I changed a locksceen slider to the Play Store and installed AirDroid. I then transferred the file over through AirDroid.
I am about to flash it now. If this installs fine and clears up the boot loop issue then I guess that issue is fixed, but that still doesn't solve the problem with my device not connecting to the PC through USB.
Okay I managed to finally get a new ROM to flash over after some issues with the ROM zip itself. It flashed and said updating apps 77/77 and restarted and its been sitting at the boot logo for 10 minutes.
Still never got it to detect USB connection on PC either.
I don't have a single clue what to do now. Am I just out of luck at this point?
Okay I know I have flooded this with messages, but I have Cyanogenmod 10.2.1 on there and it seems to be working fine. I can reboot and it goes back into Android without a boot loop from what I can tell.
USB still does not work even within Android though. Is there an issue with the hardware itself? It charges fine.

Is MTP checked or USB debugging enabled? If not you need to check them both
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
Yes both of them are checked.
Have you tried downloading pdanet that will reinstall adb asking with other drivers
Sent from my HTC6600LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes I have. Still should allow normal file transfer without it and also at the very least device manager should detect it. I think I am just out of luck on this. At least it can still charge.
On the Win 7 machine, are you sure that USB port is good? Sorry no one asked that simple question.
Also, have you tried cleaning your micro USB port?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Yes, like I said other devices work fine on PC and also have tried it on 4 different computers. I also cleaned the port.
NP, appreciate the response.
Hello everyone I'm having problems with adb on this phone. I turned developer settings on, adb on but I get no message to allow adb thru computer that I would normally get on any other phone. I can get adb devices and it provides my serial # but says offline. I've factory reset my phone, uninstalled and then reinstalled the drivers updated them and still no luck. I've looked all over the Internet and I guess no one has this problem. If any of you can shed some light on my situation I'd greatly appreciate it. I came from a Nexus so I do know some problem solving when it came to adb but I've tried pretty much everything that I could think of and also tried remedies I thought may help off of Google

This is a strange one
1. Are you on stock rom?
2. Are you rooted? (If so by what method?)
3. What PC OS are you on (Windows, Linux or Mac)
I am stock unrooted C5 ultra. I am using Windows 10. Yeah I have no idea why it's showing as offline. I tried again after work yesterday and no luck. I tried other USB cords as well. It shows up as a mass storage device in windows.

In Windows 10 go to your device manager /settings/searchbox n type (Device Manager)
In device manager find your C5 select it right click select update driver/let me choose/android usb device/ Mine defaults to the "MTP Device" you have to select "MTP USB Device" click apply and try adb again :fingers-crossed:
PS: Quote me or mention me @bigrammy or i will miss your posts
Thank you I will give that a try!

Windows 10 seems to install "MTP Device" for all my mediatek phones instead of the "MTP USB Device"
Let us know the results :fingers-crossed:
Ok I got it up and running doing exactly as you advised and changed it to USB device and immediately I got the allow this computer message. Thank you very much! Bootloader unlocked Will be flashing twrp and supersu in a bit. Now we need some roms and kernels hopefully. Loving the phone already without all that tho.

Glad you got it all sorted. :highfive:
To be honest In my opinion the Sony ROM is probably the best and most stable of any of the Mediatek based phones I have seen thus far :good:
Mine has not put a foot wrong so far and everything works as it should so I don't know how anyone could really improve it
Maybe Blisspop, MiUi and CM would be some good candidates just to have some choices and most of the work required to port them over is already done for the mt6752/32.
