New rom on phone - USB connection no longer works - Desire General

I've successfully installed the Open Desire rom on my HTC Desire, but if I try to plug in my phone to my PC I get a windows noise (asif a USB device is connected), but no access to the actual device (e.g. the drive doesnt appear in my computer).
Any ideas on what to do? It was working fine on the same PC before installing a new rom...
Thanks.

USB brick?

Sounds like the usb brick as mentioned above.
What recovery method did you use? Is your phone seeing the sd card?

I had the same problem, can you install from Market? I fixed the problem by changing the default install location for the apps.

Now I can connect both discdrive mode and htc sync. Latest OTA did this for me.

htc keeps asking for MTP driver?

Dezire z keeps askinf for MTP drivee?? i recently flashed mexdroid rom, and in the beginning none of the usbs would connect my phone. I thought it was a nightly issue as it was based off of a nightly but now its using RC1.
Recently i played around, it wouldnt connect with the "ADB or Android phone driver." I fixed that and those work fine in Device Manager in Windows 7. However!, in device manager it KEEPS asking for MTP. i tried uninstalling, updating, everything!! and it just wont find my htc desire z.
ADB can find it when using command prompt. It can even logcat, and its weird why ADB can see it but windows cant. I have posted a Download link to the Logcat file. Im hoping anyone here can help me.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21509455/logcat.txt
thanks
edit* i think i read somewhere Android doesnt use MTP drivers....-confused-
windows 7 can see my phone and lets me safely remove it too, but wont let me see it in my computer.
issues I was having with W7 x64 were resolved by PDANet. you might try it out, although your issue is slightly different than mine... the device was entirely unrecognizable (by adb, fastboot, the whole shebang).
edit: NOTE you don't need to actually use PDAnet, it will just locate an appropriate driver and install it for you, then you can uninstall it from your PC.. unless you want to use it, of course. pretty slick.

ive done this and it found the proper driver. "Android phone" BUT when it tries to connect with device, it says "failed to handshake with device" and proceeds to uninstall pdanet. Is it because its conflicting with windows 7 cant find the MTP driver?.... sooo confused.. never, ever had this problem
edit* after pdanet is uninstalled, the Android phone driver works fine, but MTP does not.

that's a bugger.
when you plug the phone in, in device manager, does it show as a USB mass storage device under the USB controller section? to check: unplug all usb devices (aside from input devices like keyboard/mouse/what-have-you). plug in your phone and go to device manager (right click my computer->manage->device manager). under USB controllers, check and see if there is a USB mass storage device. assuming you have disconnected any other storage media, this is your phone.
if it does:
uninstall this driver, unplug your phone, restart, plug your phone back in.
if it doesn't:
my next step (take it for what it's worth - I'm sure there's an easier way) would be to unplug all usb devices (including keyboard/mouse - anything USB related), uninstall EVERYTHING under the USB Controller submenu, then restart and plug the phone in.
W7 should automatically recognize and reinstall the USB host controllers and hubs.
edit: are you using any other USB storage devices? thumb drives, ext harddrives, etc? do they work?

Under the usb section in device manager, i have about 8 or so usb controllers and stuff. Im using a Gateway Laptop and only one thing is using a usb port--- the mouse. Thats all. So i dont really have a clue which one is my htc phone because when plugging it in and going into device manager the only devices i remember using the phone were adb, android phone, and Now MTP. If i could pinpoint which usb controller is using my phone ill uninstall it. Other than that, what else is there? This is the strangest problem ever

Have you tried the drivers from the official HTC Sync software? Also, are you actually trying to use the phone as an MTP device or as a USB mass storage device? I don't think you can use both at the same time (though I don't use this ROM so maybe things have changed). If you don't actually want the MTP functionality, I wouldn't worry about it.
Also, I noticed the notes for the ROM says "USB mounting is not working on a Windows OS computer" is a known issue. Not sure if that could be related...

windows 7 home doesnt have that script gpedit.msc
i looked all over google and it doesnt work . only pro and business versions have it.
Did the HTC Sync software not work? Also, have you tried formatting your SD card? Might be a long shot, but if it was ever used in MTP mode at one point, maybe your comp is detecting the files and thinking it's still an MTP device. Not sure if it works that way though...
Did you ever set the phone to MTP mode in the past? Like if you were ever on a Sense-based ROM. Maybe if you had it in MTP mode prior to flashing the new ROM, it stayed in it. Once again, no clue if it works that way since I've never used MTP on this phone before, but might be worth trying if you are out of options.
STILL havent fixed this MTP driver issue, have tried everything including the post above me!....NOTHING IS WORKING. why is it being recognised as mtp, when all i need is use the sd card.
this has been up for a week, seriously no one knows how to fix it?

I'm guessing it's because no one else has encountered this problem before...
So what happened when you flashed back to a Sense-based ROM? I've never used one, but I thought when you connect the phone via USB, you have to choose what kind of connection you want (e.g., HTC Sync connection vs Disk Drive). Are you saying even when you choose to connect as a drive, the phone still shows up only as an MTP device (which I'm assuming is what is used when in HTC Sync mode)?

i switched to MIUI rom where i can mount sd card, and it still shows up as MTP in device manager on windows. Its not a rom issue, its a issue with WINDOWS seeing my device as a MTP and not STorage ....stupid windows 7.

Well either Windows sees your phone as an MTP device or the phone is actually reporting itself as an MTP device (not sure how it works on phones, but typically Windows communicates with firmware on a USB device to determine its classifications).
I'm guessing you already tried this since it's one of the only threads on the G2 forum when I did a search for MTP...

What do you mean by not appear? The pc dosent detect the phone, or it just dosent mount the drives in mycomputer.
Also when you connect the 2 is your phone asking you what type of connection you want?

my phone does not ask what type of connection i want when phone is connected this netbook.

Have you tried installing HTC Sync on the net book? Try that, maybe it's a driver issue. Is your phone stock or rooted with a custom Rom?
Have you ever used the cable sucessfully before? Is it a eom one or a cheap knock off? Some cords are charge only. Will different pc recognize the phone? On windows 7 it should install all the drivers automaticly except for the adb driver, which is not needed to use the phone as a disk drive.
my phone is rooted with unrevoked or standalone.
im going to install GB ROM soon.

You need to install HTC Sync to get the driver. I had to, and I'm running Win7.

Win doesn't recognize my Defy

Hello,
I've a big issue, if I try to connect the phone, via usb, to the pc windows none of the devices recognize the connection.
Nothing appear on the Defy. On the Pc, sometimes appear the "new device windows" but if I try to install drivers it show me an alert saying that the device is not installed correctly.
I've tried all the motorola drivers available but nothing happen. I've also tried 2 other pc and 2 other usb cable
Fortunally, the device is rooted and I can install a nandroid backup but I don't know how I can resolve this issue, someone can help me?
Thanks

Enable / disable USB debugging maybe? But normally there should be a prompt on the phone when you plug it in (pulling down the status bar usually asks you what to do, give memory card access, charge only...). Btw, does the Defy charge when plugged in or does the LED light up?

Tried but nothing change. The phone doesn't charge correctly and no prompt message if I connect it to the pc.
And it is definitely not the cable and / or the USB port? Then it has to be a hardware problem on the phone's side I think.

Phone Not Connecting to Computer Via USB - HELP!!

i got an S3.. and my computer has xp pro. i had to restore my computer recently from a saved image of my system. before i restored my computer, i was able to connect my S3 to it via USB with no problem. but after i restored it, i'm unable to.
i downloaded and installed the MTP driver, which got my computer to recognize my phone before i restore it. but now its not working and i dont see it listed in Device Manager. whats weird is that when i connect my S3 to my computer, the phone doesnt give any notifications that the phone is connected to USB like it used to before. and it also doesnt give me the 2 options of connecting by either MTP or Camera. all it does is charge my phone. how do i fix this?

You also might get the pdanet usb driver and install that in your PC in order to get the usb to recognize an internet access via USB.
You should be able to download the USB driver from PDANet's website.

Uninstall all HTC Drives and HTC Sync.
Plug the phone to USB, and see if the PC responds. Does it try to automatically install HTC Sync? If so, don't allow it.
Does the PC recognize the phone at all in Device Manager (with all HTC software uninstalled)? If so, select the option to select drivers manually then pick generic Android MTP device (or something to that effect).
Have you rebooted the pc... Then plug in the phone?
And did it work on that pc before?

Not a good sign that your PC doesn't recognize at all. Its possible the phone's USB port is damaged, so it will charge but not connect to sync to data.
Can you try a different computer?
