WinXP and the DNA - HTC Droid DNA

Does anyone use windows xp? And if so, are you able to plug your phone in and access files? I can't for the life of me...
New PC got jacked, stuck with a winxp box for now...
Is it possible to run an ubuntu live cd and access phones files?

I have no problem with it. U got all the drivers sorted out with HTC Sync, now its super easy. Using Winxp Pro

Nope...
I can use adb and fastboot, but I can't access the phone file storage

Right click on My Computer, manage, then device manager. Plug your phone in and send me a screenshot

This thread makes me remminisce to my old NC days. Getting drivers to work on that was a pain.

How I do that? Just download newest Windows media player? For xp all I find was v11
Or is there some kind of separate update?

It should be included with whatever the latest version is, AFAIK you need it for MTP to work as its not native in XP, but is in later windows versions.

You will need to buy a copy of Windows and install it side by side with your Mac OSX via Bootcamp
Best option is to Google it, Apple have a lot of information on it (its very easy to do)
Parellels should work as well. Very similar to bootcamp, but it runs inside osx.

Windows 8 drivers now compatible!

If you are using Windows 8 Dev Preview and download the drivers directly from HTC they are now supporting us! I redownloaded them today for ****s and giggles, lo and behold they work now!

No problem! I am just happy I don't have to load up a Win7 restore partition.
Doesn't work for me...
Windows 8 64bit
HTC Sync 3.0.5606
HTC Driver 3.0.0.017
Tried Fastboot, HTC Sync, Debugging on/off
HTC Drivers Folder is empty only drivers are in the BMP folder (useless)
Have you been allowing Windows to update on its own?

I don't know what to tell you then, sorry. Maybe check in with /build and see if they have any solution ideas for you?
a bit old, but I found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775870
this resolved for me. I had to kinda force the drivers in there, but got fastboot working.
windows 8 enterprise 64 bit is what I'm running
Anyone still have the driver installer? The link brings you to the home support page now and I need this driver.

Dude, I was having the same damn thing. I was hooking it up to my ACer W500 and it would not recognize it at all. It kept giving me a USB Error (port reset error) or some crap like that. I did a factory refreshm still no go. I went as far as reloading Windows and still no go... So I thought, let me hook it up through a UBS Hub and blam, it worked... Strangest ****! My SGS3 worked fine but the Note 2 wouldnt. I still havent figured it out but it worked through the hub... Give that a try,
I highly doubt you looked up the drivers. Theirs links all over this forum and believe it or not you can get them from SAMSUNGS website wow! If you can't even install drivers please don't root/unlock it.

HTC Sync Manager Problems and MyPhoneExplorer

Hi
I am new to android phone and have been reading these forums regarding HTC Desire X. Yasir (Nexus Prime) has helped me a for unlocking bootloader.
I was facing a problem with HTC Sync Manager. I am using windows 8 64 bit version and after spending one complete day, i was not able to sync my contacts / calender between phone and laptop.
I found a free software named ''myphoneexplorer''. Its awesome and has much more capabilities than HTC Sync Manager cant even imagine for next couple of years. You can access your phone, backup and restore contacts, messages, call logs and much more. You can even send sms, chat, make phone call and even control your phone from laptop using USB cable, wifi or bluetooth.
Just wanted to share my discovery.
Your forums are very helpful as i just started with android scene yesterday with no knowledge of it. But with the help of your forums specially Yasir, i am gonna install a ROM on it in a while.
Thanx
Great to have you here! And thanks for the tip

That's 91 PC suite I suggested, thanks for the tip.
EDIT:
Tried it now, don't use it, my NOD32 went crazy when I went to applications tab. It installs some market app which leads you to the site blocked by antivirus.
But guys i am using it for some days and its awesome

[Q] Rooted/Flashed new ROM, phone is good, but now cant connect to PC via USB

I am new to Android. Just rooted, got s-off, setup TWRP, and installed Viper Rom. Everything seems to be all good on the phone.
When I attach my phone to my PC, I see the phone in my computer, but it is not letting me browse the files/folders any longer. If I try to open the phone memore or SD card, it locks up my windows explorer adn shows not responding. If I remove the micro USB cable, every think snaps back into action. I have rebooted the phone and PC I am sure its probably something stupid I am missing.
What is the deal?
Try uninstalling drivers then reconnecting. You can find the yellow explanation icon in device management
