Let me share one solution that I developed recently.
At some point, after numerous reinstallation of Android, my HD2 become undiscoverable for MAGLDR as well as for Android flasher via USB Flasher. I wasn't able to flash anything. "Waiting for USB connection" was displayed until timed out. I did reset phone, removed battery, rebooted PC - nothing happened. I started to think about replacing USB cable.
Here is what helped at the end:
- Disconnect phone from PC
- Open Command Prompt
- Type "set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1", Enter.
- Type "start Devmgmt.msc", Enter.
- Two commands above should be entered in the same command prompt window or it won't have an effect.
- When Device Manager opens select View->Show Hidden Devices
- Expand all nodes and remove all inactive devices - and icon of such device is grayed out

Here is an article about it http://support.microsoft.com/kb/241257

After that when I connected phone with USB cable system reinstalled drivers from scratch and I was able to flash.

I'm not sure it is somehow connected with Android or ADB since when HD2 is in flasher mode it is not runnung Android. The device is detected like HTC Usb Sync or something like this.

Another option is to use updated flasher attached. I found it on russian forum.

Meh... I can't read. For some reason I read that you were talking about connecting your phone to the PC, i.e. within android, for USB mass storage etc....

Even the topic of the thread says otherwise. I'll go get my eyes tested...

As I said I tried to reboot PC but it didn't help. I doubt ADB start with Windows but rather only when you start using it.

Mine has always done that. I just have to wait until the flasher program gets to the Looking for USB step and disconnect/reconnect the USB cable.

Had same problem getting PC to recognize HD2 in order to Task29, etc...
I downloaded/installed WMDC 6.1 (for Vista, but works with W7) and walla... fixed! Link HERE.
