Issues with USB connectivity etc. and root / A2SD

Ok, so what's curious to me is, the composite device (red triangle and after boot). There are no other suitable drivers, but when I looked at the Samsung drivers, they have an Android ADB composite device driver. Obviously this does not do anything when selected. Browsing to the HTC Sync drivers, the system says there isn't any compatible drivers. I was thinking maybe somehow we could hack the HTC driver to install as an ADB driver ala the samsung driver. I don't think this will work, but I find it interesting that the adb driver shows up for samsung and not htc.

Anyone reported this while in htc recovery?

e: can't open cache/recovery/command

Yes, I have the same here with a usb-less device.

Hrmm, I guess PaulW21781 is right, recovery is jacked.

For those that reflashed the testruu, do you still get the error about recovery command?

It would be good if we can confirm this with a working device.

Can anyone test that?

Also happens with a Desire that does not exhibit the USB issue.

I've always seen that, and I have no probs at all.

Not necessarily:

C:\SDK\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm unlock 0

< waiting for device >

... INFOEnable QXDM: Parameter error

OKAY

C:\SDK\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm unlock bl

... INFOEnable QXDM: Parameter error

OKAY

C:\SDK\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm unlock recovery

... INFOEnable QXDM: Parameter error

OKAY

Well, I guess you can't have a space after the command......

Ok quick question for people please...

Those with USB issues in Recovery, I guess USB works fine in normal mode??

If so... Can you do the following for me?? (to the letter pretty much)

Enable USB Debugging (Settings>Applications>Development>USB debugging)

Then plug in your USB (leave it on Charge Only when prompted), and do the following:

Open an adb shell.

Then type

#su

#cat /proc/mtd

Make a note which mtd# relate to "misc", "recovery" and "boot"

Then type (to be honest, the mtd# should be the same as below, but check anyways):

#cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img

#cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 > /sdcard/recovery.img

#cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/boot.img

The files should be 2.2MB in size each... Can you then upload them somewhere for me to get??

I'll also need to know what version HBOOT and ROM you are using. (HBOOT is displayed on bootloader, ROM is displayed under Settings>About phone>Software information>Build number)

Also, if possible... could someone who has working HBOOT 0.80 and ROM 1.21 also supply me with the same files please??

Taa :)

Also...

Someone with Recovery image issues... Can you boot the phone into FASTBOOT??

Hold the Back button while turning the power on. Hold both till FASTBOOT is displayed in RED...

Then plug in the USB... Does it change then to FASTBOOT USB

???

Thanks

Not that I've given up hope here.... But will it be safe to asume, that when Froyo is out, this update will override all partitons (boot, recovery etc etc) so that we, us with this issue, will have a normal phone again?

If yes, I might be able to live with the phone.. unable to use usb, bluetooth and fm... and charging it 3 times a day...

Seems to me that ppl are flashing the testruu and still not getting usb, so I would say. Don't hold your breath.
