Unable to mount G1 after upgrading to Windows 7

**benadams612** · 11-15-2009, 07:49 PM

I'm no longer able to connect my t-mobile g1 to my computer after upgrading to Windows 7. I no longer get the USB mount notification when I plug it in. I did a complete factory restore on the G1, and that didn't resolve the problem. Nothing at all happens when I plug it in -- I don't see a new drive in Windows either.

I could really use some help!

This problem was fixed by switching to an extra mini USB to USB cable I had. The other one must be going bad.

I am running XP. Recently ran the windows 7 upgrade program that tells you what will and will not work on your current computer with windows 7. With my G1 plugged in, it said the T-Mobile interface would cause problems with windows 7. You might check with T-Mobile and see if they have a driver upgrade? If it's fixed, great, but it did come up as problematical.

G1 not connecting to computer
I have bought a G1 from a friend and he has only given a USB cable. I have tried connecting the phone to my computer (Windows 7) but its not coming up in My Computer. The computer makes a noise when the USB is connected but no Autoplay window opens up and nothing is there on the phone to access the phone. I have tried using different cables and the same things.....

I found it in under Devices and Printer but it is called Android Phone and when I right click it the only options are Create Shortcut, Troubleshoot and Properties so I can't go in to the phone. I have gone through Properties and updated the driver but still nothing and I can't get in......

Please could you help urgently because I want to access my phone through the computer. Also, I am running on Android 1.6 so no roots on the phone and I have recently Factory reset it when I got the phone..............
