Hi - ADB on my stratos stopped working....however adb itself is just fine...i can see other devices. I've read about cleaning pins and using original charges, all of which I have tried. I had updated to Mojave on my mac, and thought maybe this was the issue? No idea. Any other prospects about how to get adb back?
The only other outlier on my device is I do have Amazmod installed....maybe that got in the way?
thanks
Restarted watch? adb on watch sometimes hangs, but restarting the device fixes the problem. You should check with another USB port (USB 2.0 or use a hub, preferably) or another computer if you think that Mojave may be the cause...
I'm curious why anyone uses wired adb when the stratos allows for adb wirelessly. Isn't that much easier to use?

Possible, yes... But it uses a lot of battery, if it is not a quick task, using USB is recommended.

Howdy,
I have a 'jasjam' and am presently running WM6 Black. I decided today that I would upgrade to the new HTC ROM but almost every time I connect my phone to the PC here (Win XP) I get 'USB Device Not Recognized' on the occasion it does work, once the phone goes into the boatload when I try to upgrade (Hard SPL) I get 'A device attached to the computer has malfunctioned.' or something along those lines.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Ben.
Bump...
The phone seems to initially recognized (XP installs driver for HTC USB Sync), but after a little while the charge light will turn off and the phone will not be seen. After reconnecting it it becomes an 'Unknown USB device' again.
I'm running Schap's 3.54c.
Hopefully someone's encountered this problem before.
Ben.
Managed to upgrade with SD card, which indicently I felt was rather an improved process over upgrading via USB.
In any case I'm still having no luck getting the USB connection to function even now with the new HTC rom.
I've tried various things including cycling 'advanted networking features' under the USB connection properties (I saw this mentioned in another thread).
Again, any help would be appreciated.
Ben.
Try a different usb cable...they have been known to go bad.

Yep,
I have had 2 go bad so far.
I had thought the same thing, so I tried 4 different cables & purchased a brand new one to no avail. :-/

I got the same thing with my hermes...i think its a hardware issue. Do you have issues with slow bootup, lost BT etc?
do a system restore on your machine. select the time before you did your last flash. my pc at work does the same thing, system restore usually fixes it.

That's a good idea, that's worked before for me also.
Another option, if you can find the phone under 'Device Manager' on your PC, is to remove it.
And then when you plug your phone back in to your PC it recognizes 'New Hardware' and reinstalls it.
Sometimes that works.
It's happening also for me from time to time.
- A restart of both machines sometimes helps.
- good usb cable is needed (I had a retractable and it was almost never syncing).
- reinstall activesync + delete partenrship on both tel & pc is the last thing you could try...
Still it happens to me sometimes.
PS1: I was almost never able to sync via usb cable when not connected to the Company Lan.
PS2: I found a Mobile Checkpoint VPN client was also "disturbing".
When I try to transfer pics to PC I don't get a notification when I plug in USB. Also I don't have an option in settings to connect to PC.

Try another cable? That's always step 1. If that doesn't work, try a different USB port on the PC; try restarting the PC.
I have even tried using my laptop! Same thing, no notification. There is no option in settings to connect to pc either. I know on older roms i remember seeing that option on my phone:confused. Would deleting the android secure folder have anything to do with that?

If you have the SDK installed on your computer you can try using adb. The stock camera app generally puts your photos in /sdcard/DCIM/Camera.
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/DCIM/Camera
This should copy all of those photos to whatever directory you are currently in, in your terminal.
Edit: Also, you might want to try another USB cable. My last usb cable gave me similar problems and eventually stopped working even for charging.
Sup my XDA'erzz... Hey so real quick is anyone experiencing issues with Android File Transfer and a Mac? I'm specifically using a Macbook Pro i& quad-core with a SSD and running OS X 10.9 Mavericks... I never had these issues with my Verizon OG HTC One 32GB... But since picking up a Verizon HTC One Max 32GB Android File Transfer refuses to work and for the life of me I can't figure out why.. If I just plug it in nothing happens unless I manually launch AFT and then I receive a message that says please connect your android device with a usb cable. If I plug it in and restart the phone it picks it up but then says can not connect to device... It's extremely annoying because I'm working on some ROMs for it and I have to constantly ADB push everything....... Not that big of deal but I'd still like to be able to mount my storage where everything is visible and can add/remove as I please.... Any suggestions would be great, thanks guys!!
Try using a different cable. Sometimes its a simple solution thats overlooked.

Reinstall drivers, not a mac user so idk if you need the fastboot or adb files from sdk. But if you do, reinstall those exe files

Did you look at what the usb phone setting is on. I know there are extra ones like modem or something or other that could prevent transfer.
I am having similar issues, the mtp file transfer mode seems to borked. I can get files from phone but not send em. I've been mounting my external sd as drive then moving the files using root explorer.
Of course.. It always shows that MTP mode is enabled but does nothing when you tap it, and also shows usb is connected on the phone but when taping that it brings up only options for internet passthrough and sharing etc...

Could be the USB 3.0 intermittent issue. Try a powered hub that is USB 2.0 as if your notebook is new enough most likely the USB ports are all 3.0.
Just saying.
My poco f1 is not getting detected in pc and there is no option for choosing transfer files or mtp or charging only.
I earlier also noticed that the fast charging symbol had also stopped showing. I tried usb debugging but to no avail.
Please help the phone is like a month old.
Did you try changing the cable or using a different port?

You didn't say whether file transfer was working earlier. If it was and the above suggestion doesn't work, re-install the drivers.

I did reinstall the drivers and it worked... but only for a short time. what happens is the file explorer window keeps getting closed automatically and i hear the beep sound( the one windows make when a device is connected) continuously for 3-5 seconds and then it stops.
Thought when i tried for the third time it worked and i was able to send a 1 GB file without any errors but i think the time taken was a bit much.
At this point I am quit confused whether its the ports problem or the cables because i also tried connecting in my laptop which also didn't detect my phone.
Should i go the mi care and get the port replaced?

And i tried connecting again but now again it won't connect again...
so basically i back to square 1.
edit: The phone got detected once i tries moving files which was fine till i kind of used the phone for whats app while transfer was still in process and the phone got disconnected automatically(windows explorer closed) though there wasn't any tension in the cable and the usb c port.
edit2: Yeah ok so I am plugging in and out a few times. it got detected and sometimes it doesn't. So I decided to let it be till you guys reply and i put the phone on charging and what i SEE that the quick charging symbol is now showing out of nowhere I didn't do anything in the phone, so how come suddenly the quick charge symbol is coming now?
I think there is problem with the port. what do you say?

There is no Quick Charge through the USB ports. USB 3.0 port maximum power output is 900mAh. So I'm not sure how does the QQC symbol appearing if connected through USB. Also, you may need to disable the automatic installation of the drivers in Windows. Could be that the windows are trying to install some "incompatible" drivers. Just guessing. Had such a situation many times with some USB devices. In any case, if you have the warranty, you can always check up the phone. It could be the port also.

You can use USBDview to search for all the drivers and uninstall them. Then install only the F1 drivers and try. Otherwise, it seems to be a hardware issue.

If there is a clash between drivers, unless you uninstall the problematic ones, the correct ones will not work. Don't worry, all the drivers will be automatically installed again as and when you connect various devices. Only those drivers which you manually installed will have to installed by you again.

I think its the usb c port probelm.
Whenever I attempt to connect my phone via USB to USB-C or even from USB-C to USB-C using my Windows 10 Laptop, I'm unable to select the File Transfer option. My phone immediately begins charging, and Device Manager does not detect an unknown device.
Is there a workaround to resolve this issue as I would like to place some audiobooks onto my phone that I have stored on my computer.
This has been an ongoing issue for sometime now and I'm still unable to resolve the issue myself. Hopefully someone here can help me resolve this issue as this is the first phone where I've been unable to successfully File Transfer. This feature is important for me to transfer files to and from my phone.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Do you have the latest USB driver installed? Also using a USB 2.0 port (A to C cable) seems to work best.
Sometimes it helps enabling USB Debugging in the Developer options.

Do you get a popup on your phone to choose between charging, file transfer, MTP, PTP etc when you connect the phone to the PC/laptop? If not, you may be lacking the correct drivers.
Also in Developer Options, have you enabled the correct USB configuration?

Yes I sure do, but whenever I attempt to select between the default option of charging over to file transfer, it immediately reverts back to charging again. Initially, I thought it may be down to me using a generic cable, but even after using the official USB-C to USB-C adapter that comes with the Pixel 6a, and the fact my laptop supports this option, I thought this may have resolved the issue. Unfortunately, neither option allows me to file transfer.

I see that you have an AMD system. By any chance is it older than a couple of years? There was an issue with USB ports on AMD PCs/Laptops some time back which, to my knowledge, was never resolved. Instead, the newer models started working alright.
Check with an Intel machine or one that has USB 2.0 ports.
are you using original cable type c cable? used to have that issue then I found out my current usb c (Xiaomi cable) is 5a,it will charge the device but very slow and wont show in device manager ..then i changed to 3a..the issue is solved..

You could be onto something here. Like you've stated, my laptop is older than a couple of years old, and I've had ongoing issues with my Lenovo Laptop and it's USB ports for as long as I can remember. Do you think a BIOS update could possibly resolve this issue?
It's just a little weird why it worked fine with my old Poco F1, but for whatever reason, with the Google Pixel 6a, it doesn't seem to want to play ball.
Could a possible workaround since all my Auidobooks are stored on an External HDD to simply connect my Phone to a newer PC/Laptop alongside the External HDD and copy/paste the audiobooks over if my phones internal memory is detected? If so, this maybe my only option.
Thanks for the heads up though. This is good to know as it reaffirms my initial suspicion that it may be a USB related issue with regards to this laptop than anything to do with the phone itself.

Why not just plug the external drive directly into the phone? I do that all the time when moving .flac and .mp3 files around -- works fine.
(Though it might depend a bit on the file system the hard drive uses.)
