I use an iPhone 6 and 6S and it's working perfectly, my problem started when I got 2 new iphone8+ (and later while writing the post, using an iPhone SE, same problem), on the host machine, no problem at all, they work and they are displayed in itunes. When I connect to guest, the loop start and I have to physically disconnect the usb cable for it to stop, trying the right-click on icon and connect/disconnect host. Not working, it give me a unknown error.
I was running Workstation Pro 12.5, so I decide to upgrade to 14.1.1, same problem. I tried on the Player 14, same problem. BUT, once, only once it work and I was able to see the device in Configurator and apply the profile that I needed. I also have a WinXP and a Win7 VM, and they can connect to the iphone8, so look like it's not an issue with the host/vmware application.

Loop reconnect/disconnect on the guest machine, I hear the 'dong' sound on Win7 when usb device is connect looping with the idevice sound when it connect.
