WTH?!?!?! A few days ago I had a problem with AS 4.5, which I managed to solve, and now this??? Why does bad stuff happen to me anyway?
I don't know the cause of this problem. When I plugged my XDA II this message pops up. =(
I tried Hard Resetting and Reinstalling AS 4.5 but it didn't work (GRRRR)
I'm guessing a driver error/corruption within my PC. Any suggestions??
(I haven't tried connecting my PPC with another PC, YET)
had same prob
just copy the serialusbfn.dll into your windows dir on ppc and all is sorted
the solution you have there is something I already posted. (refers to thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1646178#post1646178)
this is an entirely different problem =(
thanks for trying to help though =D
very simple..happens with me alot of times...just soft reset ur ppc or restart ur PC..and voila it works..also make sure its connected directly to ur pc's usb port
i did that many times and still it fails to work.. I reset both my PPC and my PC.. =(
and by directly, do u mean directly as in without a cradle? or directly without using USB splitters, extension, etc...
if the latter, I don't have USB extension cords etc...
if the former, I connect it via a cradle.
hm..i use a USB cable..so i cant really tell
Maybe your pocket pc 's bottom connector is broken. Have you tried using "WM5Storage" and putting your XDA II on its craddle to see if it gets connected as a usb mass storage device ? If it doesn't, you should maybe look if the connector is still soldered to the main board. Mine isn't anymore, and my XDA II can only charge.
Yeah nathrinder could be right..caz mine was also broken *just remebered after reading nathrinders post
I'm also thinking of the possibility that either the bottom connector or the cradle is broken, but I really can't conclude yet until I try connecting this thing to another PC and see if it works.
May I ask what is that WM5Storage?
THANK YOU!
Wm5torage is a software which makes ur ppc a card reader and when u insert a card in the device..it gets detected in ur Computer.....its just like Softkick II or sum thing like that.....search around the forum for it
Hey there
My phone has been connecting perfectly fine since I got it about a year ago right up to a couple of days ago.
I've just changed my contract and wanted to unlock the phone. However, before I could even go about doing I discovered that my computer (Vista 32bit) was no longer recognising the phone.
When I plug it in it does charge but the computer gives no reaction. Even when I put the Kaiser into bootloader it still says Serial instead of USB.
I have tried disabling enhanced network functionalities on the phone, I have reinstalled Windows Mobile Device Center, I have hard reset the Kaiser, I have used multiple USB cables and multiple USB ports (all of which work with other devices).
As a result of the hard reset I have now lost the majority of my data. It's all backed up on my computer but this isn't much use when it refuses to recognise the phone!
What can I do to fix this?
Any help would be very gratefully accepted!
Cheers
McAsh
I would try it on a friends XP machine or a friends Vista machine. Try to narrow down if it is the phone or your PC , and then proceed from there.
HI!
I have the same right problem!
The only way i can do activesync is connecting the phone in activesync by bluetooth and the sincronization is fine, but i need to put HardSPL in it and i need that it can be recognized by USB connection and my Kaiser is only charging from USB, it is not being detected by the computer.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks!
had same problem
no one help, I started a thread and no replies
till today I plugged my kaiser to usb and computer recognized and synced
I was using bluetooth to sync for a couple of months
I really didn't do anything to fix this first I thought it was usb connection but it wasn't because I was able to put new rom thru the usb so connetctoin was there when the phone is in the hard reset mode. WEIRD ha
mostly these things comes down to 3 reasons
1. defect usb connector in the ppc
2. corrupt activesync install full uninstall and clearing registry of the pc should fix that
3. issue with usb port chipset drivers for on the pc
Also having a similar problem.
My computer recognizes my Kaiser as "HTC USB Sync" in the Device manager but nothing more happends. Could it yet be the phone USB connector that is broken? Also I was able to flash the rom yesterday (from bootloader).
When plugged in, my phone totally freezes and becomes available again the moment I unplug it and by then starts "connecting to host".
If I uncheck the "allow usb connections" box in WMDC the phone is workable but very juddery.
Have tried to completely uninstall WMDC and reinstall it again with no success whatsoever.
Any tips or is my only solution to buy a bluetooth-dongle?
The solution for mine is really the repair center unfortunately!
It really seems to be a hardware problem in the USB connector, i can't even change a firmware, the pda simple isn't recognized by the computer :S
Anyway thanks for the help!
Regards!
I am also having the same problem!! My question is how do you use bluetooth to sync with the activesync(not too computer saavy!!)
Check the usb connection on the phone. It may have a contact pushed over or broken
I got the same sympton.
I can get my phone to sync by pushing the USB connector harder towards the phone. Yes, it is connected already, and it is not lose, and the PC recognise it as HTC device in Device Manager, but it is just not detected by the (Vista) Windows Mobile Device Center
If I keep pushing the usb connector in (towards the phone), then it would get detected and start syncing. If I relax my hand and stop pushing, the active sync connection will drop immediately (still detected as HTC USB device in Device manager though).
Therefore, I have to keep pushing it in to have a successful sync. I don't dare to flash the firmware anymore... :-(
P.S. I am using the official O2 WM6.1 firmware, and using the original USB sync cable. I noticed that the original USB cable's connector head is a bit longer than ALL my other USB cable's connector head (the mini USB head).
Originally I didn't need to do the push in for the phone to get recongised, so I figure it is some sort of wear and tear on the phone's connector... :-( This does put me off in purchasing another HTC phone, because the new one is likely to suffer from the same wear and tear...
btw, before the connector got that bad, when it was connected but not synchronising, I could get it to sync just by launching Windows mobile device center (which is a different program than sync center in vista); and of course, when it was all brand new, I just need to connect the phone to the PC via the USB cable, and everything happened automatically...
I am trying to flash my first rom and the computer would not detect the phone. Took a look at the female mini USB socket on the phone and the 3rd pin out of 5 was much lower. Took a tiny screw driver and pushed it up and I got success. Its a little sensitive but if you dont touch the phone it will work fine.
Good luck

HI gdarrenc!
The way to sync it via Bluetooth is when you open the activesync in your pda, in the options menu you have the option to sync via bluetooth
Regards!
possible solution if feeling brave
My hotsync failed a few days ago, did the usual searches and posting on here with no joy and then did a google search for a picture of the mini usbport.
on inspection of mine in comparison i noticed the two leftmost pins were down to the point they were in the sticky out black bit so with a pair of my wifes best precision tweazers i flexed the black bit down slightly and slid the tweazers to the right lifting them up slightly. as soon as retested it is now working again.
NOTE BE VERY VERY GENTLE WHEN DOING THIS - DO NOT USE ANY FORCE
my guess is this is due to an ill fitting usb cable as mine had a certain degree of up and down flex when connected.
hope this helps someone.
I am also having issues with pc-htc connection.
But, this happened when I pulled the usb out of the phone with my leg.
Now, I squezzed usb head a little, and it works fine.
Hi, ive got little problem, maybe i turned something off, or i dont really know. When i try to connect my phone via usb cable into PC nothing happens, its only charging my phone, its not communicating in any way with PC. i've tried several usb cables but with no success. even the charing cant be turned off, when i press do not charge while connected (or whatever it is) nothing happens, and it keeps charging. ive got dutty's rom (but dunno which one, its the one with HD2 manilla)
thanks a lot for help
Hi.
is the usb connections menu appearing when you connect the device to PC? (on your TD2..where you can choose between Activesync, Hard Disk mode and Internet sharing..). USB connection used to work and stopped after something was installed? Try to reinstall Activesync or Windows Mobile Devices Centre in your PC (depending on you OS) or, as a last resort, hard reset your phone (backup your stuff !). I would also try to connect it to a different pc, just to be sure..Be also sure that the following options in Start/Settings/Connections/Usb to PC are:
Activesync [checked]
Fast data synch (or whatever it is) [checked]
Put a checkmark on the last option if you want this menu to come up every time you plug the USB cable.
ive tried it on several PCs but no success, so its not PC problem, no tab of choosing which type of connection to use appears. Like it's only charging, not communicating with pc i guess that i need to hard reset it >.<
hard reset didnt work, still no connection between pc and phone, i dont know what to do >.< hope that its not hardware problem. any ideas ???
same thing happened to my D2. i had to send it in for a repair
that's what i was afraid about,,, HTC warranty service here in svk/cze is not-so good as i've heard. And another problem is that i have cooked ROM on. With usb not working there is no f-ing way to get stockSPL back . Wonder if they repair it, or if i would have to pay
You can flash stock rom through SD card, about sspl I´m not sure.
so i guess the phones from svk/cze have fulty usb ports because mine was also from there. the thing with me was that i live in USA so i had to wait for them to get the parts and they scratched my phone so i had to send it in. i got it back then the screen was scratched. i had to send it in again and when i got it back the camera didn't work. i argued with them so much that they just gave me a new one.
Hi All,
I have been struggling with my MX head unit for a month now, i cant bring it back from Brick. I have tried every software available, i have flashed every MCU you can think of. Im trying to connect the thing to a pc to write firmware using RKpatch tool. Does any one know how to connect it? I dont have an OTG port but i have 2 USB ports on the back, i have connected the cable and have tried every possible sequence its not seen by the computer. I have taken the unit apart to find the short pins Nothing.... i really need help..
So i bought a used A2 for 5500 INR.
At first i thought it was a bargain but soon it turned out to be a nightmare.
The phone is full of bugs.
Worst one is that the phone only charges through the usb port. No data transfer of any sort. like an old nokia pin charger.
OTG doesn't work. It doesn't connect to the PC.
Whenever I plug in the OTG/connect it to pc, the usb options are all greyed out (same in the developers options default usb preference).
I can't even use Gcam now bcoz the PC doesn't recognise the device at all, so can't enable Camera2api, can't root, can't install ROMS... can't even buy a new phone cuz i have no money ???
turns out my phone also have the slow Emmc issue ?....read speeds are okay but write speeds are very slow... specially Random write (~10mBps).
I read many people have faced this issues. All those Posts are old, has anyone found a solution.
