Hi,
I've been trying for about a month to fix this on my own. Searching and reading and testing. To no avail.
I rooted my EVO LTE per instructions here: youtube.com/watch?v=Y7-dAlaJL2I
All was going well until the backlight started having issues (turned out to be a coincidental hardware problem which I have since fixed). Thinking that it had something to do with my flash of Cyanogenmod 10.2, I attempted to restore my phone to the stock backup through TWRP. Something went wrong, I have no idea what, but the phone would no longer boot. I could get it to boot into bootloader, but that's it. If I try to just turn it on, it sits on the HTC screen for a very long time, and then the screen goes black, but the phone is on, and won't charge, or respond. I have to hold the power button for 20 seconds to get it to turn off and charge or reset into bootloader.
I couldn't do much with it at the time, because the backlight on the screen was going in and out and making it difficult to work with. Now that I've fixed the backlight issue, I find that I cannot get into fastboot USB. I have tested it with different cables, which all work to charge the phone, different usb ports, different computers. There is no change. The "FASTBOOT" header will not change to "FASTBOOT USB", although it will show "FASTBOOT AC" while plugged into the wall.
On a windows 8 machine I get no response whatsoever. On my windows 7 machine it is constantly connecting and disconnecting, often showing me the error message that "one of the USB devices plugged in has malfunctioned" or "USB device not recognized"
I have uninstalled and reinstalled HTC Sync, I have installed drivers from several threads here about similar issues. I have even reformatted my computer and started fresh. Nothing is working.
I can load TWRP recovery from the bootloader menu, but nothing in it works, it only says "failed" or "Cannot mount SD card" for any of the options that I am actually able to click on.
Can anyone offer me any advice as to how to get my phone back to working condition? I'm really kicking myself over getting into this situation, and am not the most educated with this sort of thing. I have tried posting in the designated newbies seeking help threads but got no responses.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Easiest way to get back to a working device is to RUU. Look around for the 4.13.651.4 RUU, which will re-partition your internal storage and flash the latest Sense 5 ROM onto your device.
You will need to relock your bootloader for the RUU to run successfully (fastboot oem lock) but only do that once you're prepared to run the utility.
I think @Magnum_Enforcer might have a guide floating around to help with the process.
You should also consider getting S-OFF once you're updated, using Rumrunner.
My guide (top link in my sig) only outlines how to run the RUU while connected to a computer. Since his phone won't connect to his PC, wouldn't he be able to run the RUU from his external SD card? I've never done it that way but I've read various other threads where it has been discussed. If he needs to relock his bootloader, that's also going to be an issue since he can't connect via Fastboot USB.
I would be glad to take a look at the phone and see what I can do with it. If you're interested, shoot me a PM.

Problem is that if the PC won't recognize the device, the bootloader can't be relocked for the RUU (or PJ75IMG.zip) to work.
This is one of those devices I'd really have to mess with in person to try and figure out the best route to a solution. Ubuntu might be a viable option for connecting to the device. A Live CD/USB would be the fastest way to confirm that.

hey all,
ive been a member for a while, but have never posted. i usually am always reading and trying to keep up with updates, and how to's... i am currently running liberated Aria FROO8 (2.6.32.17-cyanogen-Liberty), and have been for some time. i am nervous usually when it comes to rom updates, so i dont update constantly (if anyone has a great rom i should update to, please dont hesitate to shout it out). the problem was when i decided to update to Clockworkmod recovery 3.2 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1003723
now, my computer does not recognize my phone, and will only charge the phone. i have tried to reinstall unrevoked, but when i go through the steps, my device manager or registers it as My Htc, and i cannot update using the drivers i downloaded. it seems that its the computer not accepting the phone and not the phone restricting anything. please, please, can someone help, i need to be able to access my phone on my computer, and i have read all 33 pages of the forum thread i linked above. what do i need to do? is there a way to uninstall the recovery 3.2? if i were to upgrade to a new ROM, would the computer still not recognize the computer. i realize as well, after the fact, that i installed the recovery meant for the Desire.
how can i get my computer to recognize this Aria without having to reboot everything and try to start from scratch, does anyone know if i need to reinstall CWM and which one would work for me. when i plugged my phone after install, its states that device driver not installed correctly. then when i run through the instructions loacated here:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
and here:
http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install
and neither load a correct driver onto my computer, my computer does not register it as Other Device/Android 1.0, it registers it as My Htc.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

i would say use the 2.1 (NOT 2.2) RUU update to return to stock and re-run unrevoked
1st link 404s(page not found)
is there also a way to delete the CWM 3.2 i installed on the computer, i cant seem to find it anywhere, where would it be. thanks for the quick reply, there was no link though to the 2.1.
i dont understand how a newer version of CWM was installed without s-off
how did you flash it?
Try turning your phone completely off, then using volume down + power to turn it on, and then select FASTBOOT from the HBOOT menu. Leave your phone on this screen.
Then run the 2.1 RUU. You can download it from here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9D9NGT6J
You are going to lose your ROM settings when you do this because this reverts your phone to stock. Then you can run Unrevoked again.

thanks a million! i noticed that when i fastbooted, that the computer registered a usb plug, but that was the only time it ever did, thats why i figured the problem was on the computer side, when i tried to install the 3.2 CWM for the Desire.
i followed the instructions on the page to update the CWM to 3.2. Like a moron, i skipped turning the S-Off. so when i installed it through fastboot, like it said, the phone rebooted, but the computer could not identify the phone, and so that left me with a phone that couldnt load into the computer. i also noticed, when i tried to run Clockwork Recovery through Ubuntu, i couldnt find that either. does anyone have the link to loading through Ubuntu?
two questions...does have a ROM that you recommend, the one i had seemed to work great for me, even though its a 2.2. but i cant seem to find a link for it. does anyone know where i can find it, or one better? i loved what i was using but now not sure which to choose, since soo many have been released since i originally downloaded it. thanks again for everyones help.
sullylove
the problem was with my phone and not my computer...i should have known. when i loaded 3.2 i figured that it had to be the computer since i loaded 3.2 through the computer. stupid me. normally im pretty cautious about just downloading, but i noticed that my clockworkmod had never updated from 2.5.0.7 and i saw that there were alot of them. but ill tell ya i loved the ROM I was using. just cant find it.
liberated Aria FROO8 (2.6.32.17-cyanogen-Liberty)
if anyone has a link to it, or one better, or that i should be using please let me know.
much thanks!

For future reference, just leave your recovery version alone. Versions 3.0 and higher are actually not compatible with FR008, which doesn't sound like something you want, does it?
The ROM you've been using (FR008) is available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819715
There is also another somewhat newer version of Sense Froyo that is based off the the official AT&T 2.2.2 release (whereas FR008 is based on the global 2.2.0 release). The differences are minor but you can try it out and see what you think: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970272 (Skip all the way down to the bottom of the first post for the most recent version.)
no that does not...thanks for everything! i am clearly a novice, and should be more careful. and thanks for letting me know of the Sense 2.2.2. i think i might give that a shot. that seems to be a much smarter risk than just downloading an update i cant use, only to satisfy my hunger to update something. thanks again. to everyone

so i went ahead and tried to run the factory fastboot in Hboot but the computer never recognized that anything was plugged into the usb port. My phone only charges now when plugged into the computer, even in Hboot. Hboot recognizes that the usb is plugged in, but my computer does not recognize anything, so i was unable to reset it to factory Rom, nor use the Ubuntu unrevoked, and when i tried to install the US att 2.2.2 ROM, it installed, but still the computer did not recognize any phone. am i screwed?
How do i turn off the Eng S-On in Hboot? and is there a way to find where the CWM 3.2 installed into to get it off my computer, because it seems the computer wont let the phone be recognized? When Hboot loads i receive the screen first picture that i loaded, then it goes to the HBoot menu screen, then when i plug in the usb, it changes to Hboot Usb, then i choose Fastboot which is the next screen, the final screens are what my computer registers the phone, and what drivers are installed said item. what can i do???????

Try installing HTC Sync (leave it installed but don't have it open) before you run the RUU.
so i reinstalled HTC Sync, and the computer did pick up the phone long enough to run the aria stock rom, but now when the phone rebooted and finished installing the rom, the computer no longer registered anything plugged in. so i wasnt able to run unrekovered or now anything else, as it seems the computer still hasnt found the phone, and i can no longer do a hboot recovery to a backed up rom. it definitely seems to be the computer. but now im kind of in limbo, cant reload a back up, and computer still cant pick up the usb phone. reinstalling the computer system to factory, to clear anything that the 3.2 CWM may have installed, and i guess also wipe the sd on the phone as well. is there anything that a CWM installs onto a sd card? computer?
Next you should uninstall HTC Sync (but do not uninstall the HTC drivers), and also install the HBOOT drivers by following these directions: http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
After that, Unrevoked should work.
i did all of that step by step, and when i plugged the usb in during Hboot installation it never showed up as other device\android 1.0 it showed up as Android\My HTC. after installing the specific driver as per instructions, it did change to Android bootloader interface, but problem is unrevoked, nor the computer are registering any phone being plugged in. the program wont run unless it has a phone connected to computer. is there something to the sd checking missing files screen i posted? and apparently recovery can no longer be obtained.
I don't know what you could have done as far as installing drivers on your computer. Perhaps you should try starting from scratch on another computer if you have access to one.
There is also an Ubuntu LiveCD method that might work for you. I assume it's mentioned somewhere in the Unrevoked thread.
thanks, i had tried the ubuntu live cd unrevoked install option, but since the computer never registers a phone plugged into the usb port, it wont install. damn...i dont have access to another computer. could it be something on the sd drive? plus, should the hboot Eng S-On be off?
sullylove
I don't understand. How were you able to run the RUU if your phone won't show up on your computer?
As far as S-OFF, if you want to go that route you would have to use the recently released AlphaRevX beta. Unrevoked does NOT give you S-OFF.
Nothing on the SD card should matter, but feel free to wipe it if you want.
Its been a while but don't you need USB debugging enabled to run unrevoked? Maybe check that?
Sent from my cm7 Aria.
i dont know, when i reinstalled HTC Sync (when the computer installed the My HTC driver) is when the computer picked up the phone. but i havent been able to duplicate that time. USB Debugging was on and still is. i am going to try to see if a computer at work today can pick up the phone. if it does than that at least means its my computer thats not picking up my phone. if the computer does not pick up my phone, than i know its my phone and/or sd card. i honestly dont know why its not picking it up since it was able to do it for the aria rom reset. i hope i can get this rectified.
so i am at work, and so i plugged my phone into the usb at the computer at work, and it found the phone, installed drivers, or at least tried to because HTC Sync wasnt installed on it, nor My HTC Drivers. but i guess that at least means its my computer and not the phone or sd card. at least i have a starting point.

Have been on Gingerbread with HTC unlock.
Did 1 try of the Bear s-0ff, and it only booted to green Bear screen.
Did boot image install with PH98IMG in hboot, but it won't take
a recovery done with PH98IMG. Does not charge with any cable nor
does any computer see the phone. Fastboot does not go to fastboot-USB
on any other computer either. It will boot into the rom that was on it,
but not recovery.
Please suggest ideas to get USB to connect for charge or fastboot again.
Thanks.
Bump.
Similar problem here, although S-OFF, ICS leaked firmware, and Nils Business ICS 3.4 running fine. Phone charges from outlet, but cannot connect to PC, fastboot USB, charge mode or drive mode. Is it hardware?
If I try to connect and fail, then reboot, the connection dialogue comes up even if on the AC adapter, and if I then connect to PC, I get pulsing "USB Device Not Recognized" messages, but the "drives" don't connect (and the drivers *are* properly installed.)
For what it's worth, I *can* access the cards (internal and external) in Amon Ra 3.15; I *can* run a Nandroid and a restore. I can even run adb via wifi, I just can't connect to PC. However, after trying to do so, then rebooting, the handset things it's connected if I'm plugged into AC.
Really bizarre.
I'm having this issue at home on my windows 7 pc, but at work, on my windows XP machine, it has no problem recognizing the device. At home it just says "Unable to recognize device". I tried using widgetsoid, but that didn't work either.
Don't know about anyone else, but for me, at least, it appears to be a hardware problem. Rolled back to stock 2.01 RUU and still unable to connect, and unit thinks it's connected when it's not. Rolled back forward and will learn to deal with it or return for warranty claim.
Dumped down the innertubes from my Rezound.
no usb
Followup:
Con247 sent me suggestions, directions, and a flashable
to try and get my Zound to charge again. No luck.
I called VZN support, got a nice refurb, and am waiting to
see if old one is accepted or charged back to me.

Yup. Con was helping me out, too, behind the scenes. (Dude is amazing).
Please let me know what happens. I know how to roll back to stock and get the hboot to even say LOCKED without TAMPERED, even though it says S-OFF. I'm just looking for a time frame when I have time to restore everything from this unit to any replacement.....and s-off that unit, of course.
Have you checked that it's not the computer causing the problem. I have 2 Windows 7 laptops and 1 would not recognize my phone even though I installed the same HTC drivers on both. Eventually I got it resolved by reinstalling the entire HTC Sync package with the drivers from that, then removing the sync program.

Thanks, but I've tried with 3 different PC's, 3 different USB cables, 3 different SD cards, and 3 different RUU's. On all 3, the Rezound fails to connect, and then, on reboot, even if it's FIRST REBOOT AFTER RUU, it boots up thinking it's already connected to PC offering me "charge" or "drive mode." If I select drive mode, it dismounts internal and external sdcard, and won't remount them once I disconnect without reboot. If I select charge, then pull the cable, it reminds me to connect, but at least realizes it's *not* connected.
And fastboot usb not obtainable under hboots 2.11, 2.21, 2.25 and Juopunut's ICS hboot.
So, that's why I"m pretty sure it's a hardware issue at this point.
All sorts of issues here.
I am no longer able to install new ROMs on my Aria. In the past I have flashed many ROMs on the phone. Recently I flashed an ICS rom but I did not like the way it was working so I went back to Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC1. Now for whatever reason, I am unable to flash any other ROMs. I put the new rom on the SD card like I always had then boot to CWM, go to install from SD card and it says that there are no files there. Which is not true and its not the SD card because I can still see the files with a file manager. When I select the ROM from inside ROM Manager it goes through the process but stops shortly after starting the install. I have heard that using a different version of CWM may work but when I try to download one from ROM manager it says an error occurred when trying to download. Also when I hook the phone up to my PC it doesnt recognize that it is plugged in other than its charging. (yes it is the original USB cord and USB debugging is on).
A few details: This phone has never connected with my current/new PC. It did work at one time with my old one. While trying to fix this I did a complete wipe of the phone, the first time I hooked it up to my current PC I got the whole new hardware detected thing on my PC and USB debug was active on the phone, but I don't know if I accidently hit a wrong option on my PC but it went right away and has never connected again.
I also noticed that the phone is S-ON, I thought/assumed it was S-OFF before. Could it have some how turned back on? I cant get it back off now since I cant use ADB without USB Debug connected.
I no longer use this Aria for daily use (replaced with One X ) so I am open to some possible "extreme" ideas of trying to fix this.
Thanks for any help. This is driving me nuts.
I'd probably do the following:
1) Format SD card fresh using this program, which can fix some problems with the way SD cards are formatted. It can fix stuff that formatting with Windows or from the phone directly won't fix. Worth a try first since it's relatively easy and will rule out the possibility that the SD card just got got corrupted or something.
2) If that doesn't work, and if you have HBOOT 1.02 or older, run the 2.2.2 RUU on the phone to completely reset everything. Then use Revolutionary to S-OFF the device again, and install one of the CWM builds here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25490394&postcount=66 . Hopefully whatever the problem is will be corrected by doing all that.
If you have HBOOT 1.03, let me know and I'll tell you what else you need to do first. (This won't work without downgrading to 1.02.)

How can I run this if I can not establish a connection to my PC? (I have HBOOT version 0.57.0000)

I also noticed an error when first booting into recovery that says something along the lines of I do not have enough internal memory. I have wiped the data on this phone a few times so I cant imagine anything being actually full.

I have tried installing that before (tried again this time too) and it doesn't help. I still have no connection to the phone. I have Windows 7 if that helps anything.
I've found the most reliable way to get them to communicate is to put the phone into fastboot mode before connecting it to the computer, then running the RUU again. (If you don't know, to get to fastboot mode, select fastboot from the hboot menu.)

That didn't work either. I am thinking it has something to do with the PC. I installed that driver package you just put up there but is it possible that it didn't install correctly? How could I check that? When I installed it, it never gave any confirmation or anything. Just gave a load screen then went away.

You can try going to the uninstall programs list in control panel and uninstall anything related to HTC, rebooting, then installing the drivers I linked to again. Otherwise I'd just try on another computer if you can.
Edit: Also, before even trying that, you might just try different USB ports on the computer. If you are connecting to a USB 3.0 port (blue port), try a non-3.0 port (black port).

Well,sort of good news here. I had tried different USB ports before but thought I would give it another go, it still was not connecting. So in a bit of a fit of rage I took the micro usb cord at shoved it quite hard into the phone. Well the connection flickered. So it appears over the years the USB slot had gotten a nice amount of pocket lint or whatnot jammed tight in there to where it would connect enough to charge but not enough for a PC connection. I cleaned it all out the best I could and what do you know, it worked.
Foiled by pocket lint.... SMH.
I loaded the 2.2.2 RUU and will give the rest of the problems a go tomorrow and post an update. Thanks again for all the help.
Looks like everything is working like it used to.
Thanks again.
So I'm troubleshooting an issue I'm having with a nonbooting Rezound. Long story short, the battery ran down while in recovery (Philz Touch) and now it won't boot into ROM, bootloader, or recovery. I can't get the charging light to come on for more than a few medium flashes and one long flash when plugged in (wall, usb, 24+ hours). I can't even get it recognized on usb with the battery pulled and the "adb devices" command. I plug it in and I hear the usb connection sound but my computer shows an error for ADR6425lwv in device manager and tells me the driver isn't installed/needed which I suspect is the problem.
I recently uninstalled all things HTC to S-off my new One M8 (per firewater instructions) and now that I'm having these problems with drivers I want to reinstall HTC Sync for the drivers. However, I see that the Rezound is conspicuously missing from the list of supported devices on the HTC Sync website. Does anyone have an older installer or know of another way to ensure I actually have the necessary drivers for the Rezound? Win7 x64. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response. I get the short blinks followed by one long one just like this which I assume tells me my phone is ready to receive adb commands. However, as I said earlier, adb returns nothing with the "adb devices" command. Therefore I can't send reboot or flash commands. It's looking more and more like a basic driver issue to me. I just can't find the driver and it looks like HTC sync doesn't contain it anymore. Could someone at least give me the driver version from device manager to help me with Google search terms?
http://sleezers.blogspot.com/2012/01/download-htc-rezound-driver-and-pc-sync.html?m=1 here's what I used. Worked perfect for me... Also with the phone is off. You won't get any thing back with your trying adb. I'm pretty sure you only get it in recovery or when the phone is in USB debugging mode. Or that's the only time I've gotten it to work

You won't get any thing back with your trying adb. I'm pretty sure you only get it in recovery or when the phone is in USB debugging mode. Or that's the only time I've gotten it to work

Hey nice find although it turns out I didn't need it. I had an Unbuntu Live CD booted on my laptop for a completely unrelated project and all of the sudden my phone booted up. It was still connected to the computer but only because I had forgotten about it. I don't even know what made it turn on, I wasn't touching it and didn't have adb installed since it was only a live CD. Anyway, it booted up and I let it sit and charge for an our or so. When I was done with Unbuntu, I rebooted into Windows, plugged the phone in and bingo, it found/installed the drivers. I can explain neither my initial problem nor the random unprompted solution. I'm sure glad it's up and running again though. Thanks again for the link.
:good: whatever makes it work man

First, If this has been posted before, please provide the reference as I apparently type too generic a search criteria and time out the server. LOL
Second, don't troll or flame because I am trying to figure this out and after much searching, I could not find my answer which is why I'm asking the community
Third, don't highjack this thread UNLESS your symptoms are very similar to mine and the solutions provided by others do not work.
Specifics:
HTC One X+ Canadian LTE version.
Bootloader: Unlocked
EVITARE_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT: 1.40.0000
CPLD-None
MICROP-None
RADIO-SSD: 2.14.55.11
eMMC-bootmode: disabled
CPU-bootmode: disabled
HW secure boot: enable
MODEM TYPE: MDM9215M

Variables:
I got this phone from a person that tried to do a custom rom install and failed. He thought it was a USB port issue (the phone is in bad shape). He's got TWRP 2.6 on it and managed to clear out all copied files from the sdcard. I do not know which ROM he tried, I do not know what method he used, and he's very... eager to distance himself from the whole ordeal (he went out and got another phone post haste). I have got the phone and would like to resurrect it.
Symptoms:
I use ubuntu 14.4 LTS specifically because I don't like windows drivers and ish.
I've put the phone into recovery mode with TWRP and cannot be recognised by LSUSB. Mounting the sdcard gives me nothing.
I've put the phone into HBOOT aka bootloader mode and cannot be recognised by lsusb
I've put the phone into fastboot mode (and the mode changes to fastboot usb when connected) and cannot be recognised by lsusb
fastboot does not find it and neither does adb. I cannot sideload since adb doesn't see it.
There is no ROM to play around with because apparently the prior owner decided to try and rewipe everything and it ends up just showing the HTC logo screen and power button press gets the back/home keys flashing.
ISSUE:
No matter what I do, I cannot get the computer to see the phone. USB port works as I can charge the battery, and the fastboot mode does change to fastboot usb when plugged (unless one of the pins is not functioning). I've changed computers (all running ubuntu 14.4) and cables too to insure it's not the hardware. Only items left are:
a) the usb port is bad
b) a trace or two on the mobo has been damaged (no signs of tampering)
c) water damage?? (no signs but could be a reason why)
d) the phone is physically fine, the software maybe jinxed somehow?
Any help would be appreciated. I've tried to even use htc's latest drivers on windows (ugh) and even a signed ruu to see if I could brick this thing somemore and then bring it to life.

Sounds like a)
though have you tried sudo fastboot blah blah
Also try a different USB cable... Only thing I can think of right now, I use Arch and my X+ show's up straight away

For sure I've sudo... I use "sudo -i" so that I don't have to sudo every command (in case I forget). Also wrote that I tried various computers and cables. Ubunut has never failed any phone detection so I'm pretty sure it's not linux. my HTC One X shows up fine.

Okay, here's an update. I took apart the phone, connected it to a USB cable, and tested each pin on the mobo to the end of the usb cable (the HTC cable that came with it) to check for continuity. This would insure that my micro-usb port is working correctly on the phone. It's not a physical disconnect so what else could it be? Obviously the phone sees that it's being connected to a computer when the "FASTBOOT" status changes to "FASTBOOT USB" on the screen.
Any ideas android gurus or have I really stumped everyone?
