Hey Guys, i'd like to thank everyone who takes the time to read this post. ill try to stick to basics and give as much pertinent information as possible.
First off, Yes, i have the HTC EVO, rooted... sort of
Everything works fine, 3g, text, email, call, internet, but when i plug my phone into the computer via usb (using windows 7)... nothing, it wont recognize it as anything. (tried different usb cable, different computer, still nothing) phone will not display the menu for usb charging/sd card mount/ htc sync. Also downloaded the adb drivers for x64 windows 7... windows just fails to intall them. I downloaded htc sync, doesnt recognize the phone either, neither does unrEVOked.
At one point i had these drivers pop up... QUALCOMM <about 4 of them> none of them seemed to do anything though, and soon later they just dissapeared.
I also downloaded PDAnet, because someone told me that the program would install the adb drivers, it didnt even recognize the phone.
Phone will NOT charge unless its OFF (even through an ac adapter).
Secondly when i boot the phone it will say "sd card removed" the card works fine through a card reader on the computer, even tried different sd card and same error message showed. (sd card is 32gb 2 class)
I was trying to flash from 2.1 custom rom, baked snack to custom rom 2.2 mikfroyo. This is when the problem first started, to in an attemp to fix it, i flashed pc36img, (to try it again) when i went into recovery mode on my evo and then opened recovery-windows on my computer, it would just close. then i went thru on command prompt to kill server and try to it again. it said "waiting on device" i waited... nothing happened. so i went into fastboot (holding up and power on the phone) and then cmd to sdk-windows/tools and tried this : fastboot oem enable qxdm0, it said, "waiting on device"... so i went thru the terminal emulator on sdk, typed in SU - and said "file access denied" - i assume i killed the root by flashing my phone to pc36img...
so now im in a situation that i havent found online.
any help in this situation would be great, even a " go to sprint and tell them to fix it " would be helpful since this is about how i feel at this point. but will they say, "F*** you, you voided the warranty" ? What about saying the phone was lost and asking for a new one, then selling the evo back to sprint through their buyback program? or even selling the old one on ebay, with bad esn. i read alittle bit about how to zero out the esn, and since evo's with clear esn's are selling upwards of 300, that sounds like a nice idea. since i'll being paying asurion 100 bucks for a replacement.
Also, i tried to udate the firmware via the settings menu on the phone, and it says im up to date. but im not. i havent updated the phone since i first got it in july of 2010 (besides the flash from baked snack to mikfroyo - which i erased by going to pc36img)
