[Q] Devs help me please , this is a special case I am having :'(

[seaskyways]

Devs , I will tell you my story ending with my problem ... So I was trying to upgrade my hboot using the misc editing method so the bootloader will check that the version is similar and won't deny the hboot update , so I edited it successfully and upgraded , unlocked , flashed roms etc ... but after a while , I noticed that I couldn't mount sd as disk drive while USB debugging is on ! neither i can use htc sync even when usb debugging is off , when i select htc sync it automatically turns on usb debugging and bricks the connection ! moreover , in recovery debugging is always on and non-toggle-able , so I can't mount my /sdcard as disk drive through recovery ... I tried reflashing the whole RUU from PC , didn't work , tried getting another misc.img from a working phone and same CID and flashed it , didn't work , tried flashing playing with hboot versions from 1.08.0099 to 1.09 to 08.0000 , not working ... any ideas guys ??

OTA will not repair the misc. I tried it once I was misc bricked. And I was really ****** up because ALL of my misc was filled with garbage.
I had similar effects.

couldn't connect to usb (neither sync nor adb worked)
sdcard was not even recognized.
phone bootet only when cable was connected and many more ****.

@seaskyways: try

fastboot enableqxdm 0

that fixed at least my sdcard failures at this time.

Missed to tell you that I did the command I now have full sd functionality , and adb is working for me , almost everything , but my current issues are only when usb debugging is on --> I can't mount disk , when usb debugging is off i can (but i use adb very much) , also htc sync doesn't work either ways ...

And for the OTA , it won't work , tried it several times , but once i caused this problem to my brother's wife wfs and then reflashed bootloader and it was fixed , unfortunately mine wasn't by either upgrading , reflashing , or dwngrading ...

I have heard lately that for S-off you can try :

fastboot oem eraseconfig

which is supposed to fix the misc , but also i heard that it might erase everything , i dunno , anyways i am not s-off , and if I was i could have done it even without knowing what it does exactly , but whatever it does it should fix the misc so because of that i needed a tester for this command so far ...
