: Computer to phone relations
: Crouton March 23, 2013, 11:54:30 PM

Alrighty, so I rooted phone (HTC Evo 4G) and flashed CM7 on it. After it started up I connected it to my computer and tried putting music on it and everything was fine, but then I realized that I didn't have certain google programs I wanted to so I found a .zip with the whole pack on the xda forums and flashed that on as well. Connect my phone to my computer again and now my computer doesn't recognize the phone as anything. not a storage device, not anything, it just charges it. So my question is has this ever happened to any of you guys? I've got other people who want me to do this to their phones but I don't want this to happen to them so I came to one of the places I figured could help.

Have you checked the settings on the phone? Mine has an option to only charge, show up as USB removable device, or use the debug bridge and recognized as a device.

Try what techb said above. Otherwise you should know that you must flash the GApps right after you install the system. Although I don't see that being a huge issue. Maybe you wiped some settings?
And with GApps I believe you can just install the apps you need just like any other,  such as Google Play, google maps, and others are kinda useless.

well I checked all the setting and I know on the original rom that came on the phone there was something like that but I can't find anything now. Also I just realized that I don't think the phone knows its plugged into something. I mean it  knows to charge but generally when you plug your phone in it comes up in the notification bar charge only or whichever you've got it set to, but nothing comes up. I'm gonna play around with it a bit more and check out the xda forums to do some reading on it, thanks guys.

This phone is running Linux. This won't be too hard once you know how Linux works. Rooted == terminal, make use of it.

Also, xda would give better insight.

Why are you running CM7 anyways? I'm sure there must be atleast CM9 for your Evo...
