This seems to do the same thing that USBModeSwitch from HTC Test Tools does, right? In Mango, it doesn't know that it's connected to the PC while in Diag Mode.

Has anyone been able to get USBModeSwitch to work correctly in Diag mode on Mango?

 

[fulat]

I am sorry but how this work? i sideload it and set to Diag Mode. nothing happen.

connect micro USB cable and Enable UART. nothing happen
connect Micro USB cable and Disable UART. downloading driver and then when completed it install Windows Mobile Device Center. but i check the WMDC. nothing was attached.

Please help me.. really want this to work.

thanks in advance

sprint arrive

Would this program work on a cdma sprint arrive?

 

[thesecondsfade]

Probably not. This uses the same method as DFRouter and xboxmod's USBModeSwitch from HTC Test Tools and the CDMA phones have not worked on it as far as I know. Why not just try it?

I'm on nodo trying to wait for sprints official release.
I did try dfrouter quite extensively with no success.

Hi,

Enable UART enables // USB_DRIVER_QC_COMPOSITE // Mode

Disable UART actually enables // USB_DRIVER_ROUTER_SERIAL // Mode

In later case a driver is installed and you must have device manager open to see what happens

HTC USB Modem must be used instead of PocketPC USB sync

in my case. Only PocketPC USB Sync installed. How to change to HTC USB modem?

 

[CHfish]

Has anyone figured out a way to use the app (or the dfrouter) on mango?
I managed to deploy the app (https://juarola.wordpress.com/2011/...oyment-to-device-fails-with-error-0x81030120/) but it doesn't run...

 

[alexrodri0]

possible to make an xap for app located in settings hub?? :]

 

[georgex]

It does not seem to work. Only PocketPC USB Sync device appears, I cannot change it to the HTC USB Modem driver, says "not compatible hardware" when trying to.

 

[GoodDayToDie]

Is this anything but a more colorful DFRouter app? In any case, it works (or rather, doesn't) exactly the same on Mango.

I'm going to take that as a "No" then, I guess... although a modded HTC USB driver may well do the trick (even just bring back the one from NoDo; maybe it got changed in the Mango update?)

Hi,

Yes, i worked out, a new version is successfully completed with tethering working even in Mango 7720

Not a good day to die for GoodDayToDie

[jaygriggs]

Hi Ansar!
Any chance of getting this to work on cdma devices?
I assume there is something that is different with the cdma radio that prevents this from working. Thanks In Advance

 

[fulat]

i manage to force install HTC USB Modem driver and appear a HTC USB modem at my device manager.

however, it should also appear 1 more unknown device at device manager where i need to install HTC Diagnostic Interface (COM8).

at this part i do not see any unknown device at device manager.

kindly advise how do i make it work for the above.

thank you

by the way... i am on windows 7 Enterprise x64 with all latest update.
