Can't connect to USB after update (CDC Serial, MTP problems, Windows XP) - HTC Butterfly S

When I connect my device to my computer, it can't find the hardware to install and eventually after cancelling these it will show no folder but it will recognize the camera but everything in that folder is blank. I'm using Windows XP SP3 which was recently formatted, and I recently updated my phone to Android 4.3. Device is unrooted and running on stock ROM.
Also note that my computer is saying something about CDC Serial and my phone says it's in MTP mode. I have tried enabling and disabling USB debugging to no avail. The first time I connect after starting up the computer, I see the HTC sync manager in my J drive but after changing the debugging, it will only shows an empty disc drive there.
On the "Safely Remove Hardware" it does show my device under the J drive under Mass Storage device but there is no J drive on "My Computer". It can be safely removed.

I guess Windows XP doesn't have out-of-the-box support for MTP. Mind you, XP is quite old by now and in the times when it was new, there weren't a lot of MTP devices out there. Instead, there were tons of PTP (Picture transfer protocol) cameras, which is what Windows tries to use to communicate with your phone. (MTP is an extension of PTP, if I understand that correctly.)
As for how you might be able to fix this, you can try something like this with a vendor ID value of 0bb4 and product ID 0f63 (So, this string: "%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0F63&MI_00"; those are the values from my Butterfly S, yours may differ).

I tried this, it does reset the connection so that the installer for Sync Manager shows up but once again the same thing happens again.
It wants me to find CDC serial after I install Sync Manager which does not detect the phone, then it brings up something as ridiculous as "please unplug and replug your device to update the drivers"...
At the end of thy day it still says the same error message that it cannot install something...

On my Windows Vista laptop the CDC Serial problem is present again but the phone is recognized under "Portable Devices" while in my XP desktop it will only be recognized as a camera, even though I already installed the MTP kit.

bleh, doesn't work... still asks me to find stuff to install "Android phone" and "CDC Serial", it can't find anything so it tells me "a problem occured in installation"
on my laptop with Vista, it asks for CDC serial but this isn't needed I can access my internal storage and SD card as the phone still appears under "portable devices", but it does not show up on Sync Manager (don't really care about this anyways)
I might just get an SDXC card reader as all my pictures are on the microSD card. Unfortunately my current card reader can't read SDXC only SDHC -__-
it will eventually show up as a CD ROM drive that is either empty or it's the installer for Sync Manager

[Q] windows driver issues for vivid

I'm fairly new to android and i was wanting to root my htc vivid but it will not connect to my computer. I first plugged it in and the windows device manager installed a driver that just said unknown device. so i went and downloaded the htc sync software but even that won't recognize the vivid. I'm at a total loss and need direction.
Drivers at htc
Did you try the drivers at developer.htc.com ?
Page 4 from "Kernel Source code"
Download ADB http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
Choose Connection Type
When you connect your Vivid to the PC via the USB cable, you should see a screen asking what type of connection you want - charging only, disk drive, sync, etc. If you are not trying to actually sync data, just select disk drive and the tap the Done button at the bottom. You can then see the internal storage (and the "external" SD card if you have one installed). This can be done even if HTC Sync does not work.
If you don't see the connection type screen, go into Settings and tap on Connect to PC. Check the Ask Me box so you will be prompted the next time you plug in the USB cord.
As to HTC Sync, see my posting elsewhere in this forum about HTC Sync not working. In my opnion, it's not a very good program.
As for the driver, you may need to uninstall the driver if you can. Then uninstall and re-install HTC Sync to get the correct driver.

I had similar issues trying to install the ICS update. Some searching lead me to this post that had just the drivers I needed.

I've tried the drivers from that post before and still no dice. And when I connect my phone it never asks for connection type even when I have it checked. I'm still in the same boat

Exactly what he said, Windows Vista didn't tell me any drivers were required (in charge only mode), but I had to install the XP drivers from that link before the RUU would proceed past the very first step. After I did that it worked fine.
Just unzip the drivers to a folder and when Windows tells you it can't find drivers, tell it to look there.
Ok I have the same issue but windows doesn't tell me it can't find drivers it just sits there. So how di I get it to accept the drivers?

I found the drivers for windows by going thru the at&t website... Then once I installed the HTC sync software (yes I know it doesn't work) and ran it... It told me there was a new version... I installed that and like magic it finally knew it was there...

HTC has new drivers that work when the old drivers did not. HTC SYNC from htc.com Load in Windows7 and they will run in the background.
read the posts above to set your phone correctly and you should be good to go. Gary

Confirmed Working QPST

Ok after some hours of trial and error Im able to read and write to my one with qpst. I'll share my setup.
I'm on windows 8 64bit
I've attached the build of qpst I used as well as the driver.
If your on windows 8 or 7 you will have to disable the signed driver check
open command prompt by running as an administrator, then issue this command
bcdedit /set {globalsettings} advancedoptions true
reboot.
Once windows restarts choose option 7 to disable driver check.
Connect your phone with the usb cable and enter diag mode by press ##3424#
Two drivers should fail to load
Htc diag
Htc diag9k
Right click on the htc diag9k driver and click on "update driver software"
select "browse my computer for driver software"
Then "let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
click have disk and navigate to where you extracted the driver files
and choose Qualcomm HS-USB Android Diag 9018
Click next till it is installed and you should be ready to open qpst
you will need your msl/spc code but there is a thread on a easy way to retrieve that.

Useful info
Just to let everyone know...
I just loaded the normal HTC Diag drivers I have been using for years for the diag9k. Was able to access it in QPST , CDMA WS (paid version) , and DFS . (The regular htc diag wouldn't respond to any of the commands sent to it with using the normal drivers, I will try with the ones posted but I am thinking that we really should only need to work with the 9k). Same thing applies with any htc phone of recent years, if you want acess to NV folder, create a folder called "open sesame door" in the main directory while using efs explorer in qpst or in DFS read EFS2 and create the folder. Reboot the phone and the folder will be accessible. QPST is the better option since when in DFS it doesn't show some of the key files you need to work with *cough cough*. Same HTC supercode works and cdma WS is able to find the SPC just fine. Another fun fact for people to know. The one does function for calls text and internet without the sim card , just no lte , which for some this might be helpful ( >=) ). Always some fun menus to change settings under ##3282# as well. Hope this helps some people out!
I would love to get QPST working with my Sprint HTC One. So far everything I have tried hasn't worked.
The linked drivers are corrupt for me as well (tried WinRAR and 7-Zip). Any new links possibly?
The attached files are actually HTML. I just changed the extension to "htm" and loaded it in a browser. It opens the Dropbox download page.
I'm working on the driver signing issue now.

My QPST screen
I now have the attached drivers installed. I still get exactly what I was getting with several other HTC diag drivers.
It looks like something is found, but the phone isn't recognized.
Any thoughts?

Hello i cant install the drivers since it says that the drivers are not digital signed, can some one tellme how can i install them? i already tyed the comand prompt, and other ways, but allways says that theres an error installing them... Tahnx

I tried the instruction exactly as posted but could not get the Diag9k drivers to work. The drivers do get installed but there is a yellow triangle showing and an error massage comes up stating that the drivers are not compatible with the device. Can somebody let me know how to install the drivers correctly?

Yep. Tried different PCs to. ADK with latest drivers - lots of differing drivers - which is weird as the pc (and laptop) recognized the device to root it - it just never showed up in explorer to let me transfer files

Conflicting Android USB drivers are sometimes a problem. Have you installed USB drivers for, say, Samsung phones before on the same machine?
I ask because I had to manually clear out any and all Android-related USB drivers in order to clear out conflicting Samsung Android and other Android USB drivers before I could get my Nexus 5 to show up in Windows Explorer.
Mine only shows as camera device, (you can enable that on storage, USB options) so I drop/pull files from the folder called Pictures and from there I use a file explorer to move them around the phone as I please. Just a workaround
I always use googles universal USB drivers from the SDK . . now sometimes I have to manually select the driver but it always works
Good idea. I deleted all android / google drivers but noticed a Samsung one. Will try deleting that. Thank you
If you go to Device Manager you may notice that the Nexus is showing up as ACER ADB something. If so then follow this.
If the problem persists, right-click the ACER ADB Interface and select 'Update driver...', then 'Browse my computer...' then 'Let me pick from a list...' and you should see two options for the Nexus, Google Nexus ADB Interface and another called MTP USB Device. Choose MTP and hit 'Next' to install the driver, then it should show up as a portable device on your computer.
Answer found from here. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ing-acer-device-rather-than-android-device-fo
Tried all the good advice given - I have attached a couple of screenshots - tried ADK google drivers too - no help! Arghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boot into TWRP and connect to PC. See if you can mount MTP that way. Not a fix but could get your files transferred. Also may prove if more than a ROM issue.
I have the same issue? An it still is not coming up with TWRP? I tried the DEV M preview, it's good. But will not connect to PC as MTP?

Mtp works if driver is installed right check device manager while in mtp mode, if you dont see R1 HD under portable devices, chances are driver not set up, try this
In device manager u will see the driver (probably under portable devices) anyhow it will have an exclamation mark on the device, just double click it to bring up properties windows, click the driver tab, then update driver, choose browse my computer for driver software, then click let me pick from a list.... It should come up with several driver choices, select MTP USB Device, that should do the trick, under device manager you should now see R1 HD in device manager, and the device will now show up in explorer.
