My computer isn't recognizing my phone, it just charges it. I've installed and reinstalled HTC Sync many times, restarted the computer, restarted the phone, tried different cables, tried different computer. I've called Sprint Tech Support and they couldn't get it working either. Nothing is working. I'm using a 64-bit Windows 7 computer is that matters. PLEASE HELP
In your phone's settings --> Connect to PC, the option is not there to change what type of action you want when you plug it in?
I've tried to change the default connection type but that didn't make a difference. Still only charges the phone and doesn't recognize it.
I wonder if it can still read the drive if you mount it in the recovery console?
If I do what?

I just factory reset my phone and it still won't connect.

Are you using the original EVO 3D cable, or an extra one from around the house? Some of the MicroUSB cables are just for charging.
If you use the original cable and still have issues, then I would assume it's time to dig into device manager on your computer and see if there are any conflicts there.
I'm using the original one. I also tried a Samsung one. I'm beginning to think the problem is with HTC Sync because I tried an Evo Shift and HTC Aria and those weren't recognized either. The Aria worked one time.

1. Pull down the notification bar press charge and change it to disk drive and press done.
2. USB 2.0?
I'm having this issue as well.
I've bought a new SD Card and USB cord for the phone to see if that solved the issue but no luck.
The phone was working prior to the other day. It is about two weeks old.
The left attachment is the most recent the one on the left was yesterday.
I've also used HTC Sync with no success
Different usb port?

I've tried different ports as well as different computers.
On the laptop with windows 7 it won't install the drivers either
I've got time left on my 30 day exchange so i'm gonna swap it in and find out if it's the phone or not.
So it was recognized at the Rogers store after he took off the back and said the micro SD card wasn't inserted fully. I got it home and it still isn't working, could it be a driver conflict issue with windows 7 64 bit?
Tried 4 diffefnet computers, some 2 with HTC Sync and 2 without. Didn't work. I've tried 3 different cables. 2 original HTC cables and a Samsung one, still didn't work. Still doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

I've also used 3 diferent micro SD cards and factory reset it twice and used both 32 bit OS and 64 bit. Tried XP, Vista, and 7.

I've also made attempts on other computers with no luck with installation, but as i believe i said in a previous post when i took it to the store the guy working had it show up on his computer
have you guys tried deleting HTC sync altogether and installing JUST the evo3D drivers, and NOT the entire sync program ? I've never seen anyone have this mush trouble before. Also, what are you trying to do? mount sd card to comp? use ADB? tether?
Plug in ur phone and turn on HTC sync. Go in to settings, applications, and look for usb debugging. Turn it on and off til ur computer and HTC sync recognize the phone. Had the same problem and this fixed it

I have tried just installing the drivers. Didn't work. I'm trying to mount it as a disk drive. I tried enabling and disabling USB debugging for like 2minutes straight, that didn't work either. It's weird because now my Evo Shift is recognized but not my Evo 3D

Installed ICS 4.0.3 on my sgh-i717, a few days later it stopped charging and was unable to be recognized on any PC. I connected it to Kies via wifi, put the stock att rom back on it, reflashed though CWM, flashed counter and still nothing, set it back to samsung, got a new phone.
THen yesterday (2 days after i got my new phone) I flashed the new OnlyOne ICS rom 4.0.4 on my phone, then not even 3 hours later, my USB wasnt working again.......charges when it wants, but CANNOT be recognized by and PC....wtf?
Any ideas please!!! ?? THank you!
USB Ports
Just out of curiosity, have you tried a different usb port? Sometimes (and I think it's windows fault) I can use something on a certain port for months, then it will stop working, changing ports fixes it, then when / if that port stops working i'll switch back to the first port I started with... rinse / repeat.
Remember the old Nintendo Carts, when they would get dusty, they wouldnt work until you cleaned them? Could be the same thing, issue with the port, dust, or just going bad.
It could either be a driver issue / and or the actual port. Esp if it's an older usb 1.1 spec port.
I am running OnlyOne, and it's running fine here as far as computer seeing it / charging. I don't think you would get 2 phones that are defective back to back, Check your computer first, especially if it consistently will charge with the AC adapter and not the computer.

Ouch..... Sorry Bud........
I hope you still have insurance on your phone and I would put it back to stock and see if that works out for you buddy.
If you have access to another phone , try to download seraphim a great from and put it on there and flash it. Inside of the newest seraphim there is a USB storage mount option which should fix your problem. I hope this will fix the problem

Doesn't sound like a ROM issue or one that requires a different ROM to be installed just because it contains a USB selection. To me it sounds like you have a bad cable or a few bad cables. I would try a new micro usb cable. I have had that issue happen a few times with quite a few phones. Cables that just don't click when inserted don't always make the proper contacts. And owning another cable can't hurt, just make sure it is a good brand.

I tried reverting back to a Gingergbread rom, tried re flashing a few different roms, no luck. Tried a few different usb plugs from different phones... how can you mess up a micro USB just from flashing... makes no sense.
Idk about the charging part, but i had the same issue with pc not recognizing my phone after i flashed new ROM on it and could not share files and what not i found a solution for that try this. Make sure phone is unpluggdd from pc. Go to settings>Wireless and network>USB utilities> connect storage to pc then it will tell u to plug your phone, do so. And phone should prompt you with the normal USB storage click it and your good to go.

Me and my husband both have Verizon fascinates and mine has aokp m6 glitch..no probs...my husband is plain stock and he's been losing service and whatnot so i was going to reboot his rom still with stock
Now the problem...i can't get the PC to recognize his phone...reinstalled drivers etc...works for mine though...when i tried Odin the phone would go into download mode but Odin would not add it...but will mine...any ideas if why this may be happening?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
I'm having the same problem. Does it connect to Odin while on in debugging mode? I was told that if it does to use abd to find out if the drivers are working correctly. Also does it pop up and says the the device has errored and can't connect?

I see this a lot. Sometimes its the cable, and sometimes its the phone itself. I had the hardest time getting Odin to work. It was a cable issue. I bought a BlackBerry data cable and voila! It was working again.

I've tried like 10 diff cables...and they'll all workfor my phone just not his...i don't know if i can access adb on his being it's not rooted or anything...and i can't root it without Odin recognizing it...when i connect it to mass storage the phone itself recognizes it's connected (sometimes)...but the pc just keeps saying it doesn't recognize the device...but once again it recognizes mine which is the same phone just diff rom kernel etc....
I'll prob just try messing with it some more being i was in the middle of the woods at 2am camping when i was trying to get it to work...maybe I'll have better luck...i know the phone got soaked but it was fine till like 2 weeks after when it started losing all carrier service until it would reboot itself
And he thought I'd have problems with my custom roms...ha!

I had the same issue with my fascinate. I discovered it was the cable.(my phone took a bath to. Last the vibrate but still runs like a champ) I ended up using my wife's kindle cable I tried like 4 til the kindle cable redeemed me from ics envy. Also, to get Odin to see your phone and trick windows 7 to install some generic "universal USB driver" you have to...
1. Launch Odin (I'm using version 3 something)
2. Connect phone to computer.
3. Power down phone.
4. 3 finger into stock recovery.
Odin should at this point see the port to his phone.
I had to do try everything til I discovered this. Also have you used mass storage or media sync with on his fascinate? Those are some drivers that the fascinate installs to get the path from phone to computer working.
Let me know if it works

I recently found that it can be more often then not the cable. The cord that came with my phone does not allow it to be recoginized by my computer but my friends cord for her LG P930 works perfectly. I have also had to reinstall the samsung usb driver a few times while changing roms.

Well somehow i got it to work...i plugged my phone in after his and the computer decided to download some drivers and all of a sudden it started recognizing his phone...now i just have find a ROM that agrees with it being i can't use ics being it only turns on if you 3 finger into recovery then connect it to a power source...then it magically turns on so you can reboot...haven't found any solution to that issue except that something in the battery connection had to short out when it got wet

Ok so this is really bugging me. I keep my phone on the stock rooted ROM most of the time because I use it for work. Two days ago i started getting random reboots, then I notice that my computer doesn't recognize the phone anymore. (yes usb debugging is on). So I safestrap into a custom rom & it seems to work again. Next day same problem. Any suggestions here, I'm kinda stumped.

It may be a OS problem or USB. Try a different usb, or computer.
Also you can try another usb cable.

New to Galaxy S4, have had Motorola for the past 15 years.....few things different. Cant seam the sync via usb cable. Soon as I hook up with cable it recognize's the phone and files and I can explore the phones files. I've got the latest Samsung drivers or at least I think. Downloaded Kies latest.. I've got the phone rooted. so the usb connection worked for that. Tried Windows media to transfer files, drag and drop, tried Kies, tried moving, send to. But nothing. Tries to move files but about the first 5% of transfer it stalls out. I'm wanting to transfer some apk files into the download file in the phone, but cant do that....I've check the USB debug and have toggled it back and forth between camera and media and still nothing. Any suggestions
