usb fix? - Touch HD General

hey guys i think i might have found a slight bug enabling usb i mean its not really any hack or anything but i went to boot android up when i clicked haret i instantly re connected usb when it got to the end of the haret loading (not linux) and i now have options for file tranfer but it doesn't seem to work but this is the first time ive seen any sort of usb symbol on screen.
any ideas about this?

no usb storage yet, only ADB.

yeah but it was saying i could use usb storage but that would make no sense because if it was mounted on a mac then android would just crash instantly because its running off the sd card. surely that means usb storage will never work until we are running it from a rom.

your finding is known but yes, it is not working.

My nexus one wont mount ( windows 7 64-bit )

When I first plugged in my nexus one, windows 7 recognized it and installed the n1 driver... but whenever I tried to mount the nexus one to access it's files, it wont let me; thus, I always have to manually remove the micro sd card and insert it to my sd card slot on my lappy to access it. ( Do keep in mind that I was able to mount my sd card at some point in the past. )
I tried turning on the the usb debugging mode while attempting to mount the sd card like some people suggested with no avail. Does anyone here know how to fix this problem? I would appreciate it very much if someone could help me.
Thanks,
Roxy
Uninstall the n1 driver and try again.

I get a similar problem mine will mount and then automatically unmount so I cant copy any files to my n1
Use another usb port
Can't say I've ever had this problem before.
USB debugging enabled on the phone
drivers installed
and I can adb remount with any probs... :S
I have, I've tried 4 different port I have also tried on another pc and its the same.
I'm using Windows 7 64bit, no problems with usb driver and accessing N1 storage
try a different cable?

Restarting my PC, with the phone connected did the trick for me, I had exactly the same problem.

I'm not talking about ADB remount ^^; I'm talking about USB->SD Card mount.

Both doesn't work
maybe your nexus one usb port is goofed. i had that problem on a winmo phone after a while.
and, are you using the stock sd card supplied? or are you using one of the new fangled 32gb? i have a 16gb class 6 that has no issues whatsoever. try a diff sd card. otherwise, it may indeed be busted usb port
Or maybe you aren't responding to the "USB Connected" notification prompting you to "Select to copy files to/from your computer" ?
I doubt it's a USB port problem. I have the same issue with my nexus and windows 7 professional 64 bit. The same phone works flawelessly in XP mode on the same laptop!
So, it seems like it's a driver issue.
Cheers,
Stephane.
This is a common Issue on Android Devices
My roommate identified this issue on his Win 7 Home premium 64 bit machine, we found that when we hook up any G1 or Nexus to that PC none will stay mounted. It shows connected you choose the option to mount the phone will show mounted for a few seconds then will show not mounted and nothing happens on the PC. We have tried with 2 different G1's one rooted one not. Same with 2 Nexus One's, one was rooted one was not. All had the same issue. All of the phones will mount on other machines. We suspected the machine but there are no security settings active to prevent mounting and he is the administrator.
i had to install separate drivers by running devmgmt.msc, right click on nexus one, search for the correct driver in the sdk folder
the usb driver wasn't enough to do it. had to get drivers specifically for nexus one as well

Cant mount sd card on the computer

I hate to start a "OMG ITS NOT WORKING" Thread. But im just plain stuck.
Im trying to get to my sd card on my computer, to switch to my 4gb and to get the update.zip on it so i can root. But no matter what i do, it wont mount. My computer complains that the "USB Device not recognized" and loads a bogus driver. Ive been trying to get it figured out but nothing so far.
Anyone else have this problem? Any one know how to fix it?
hope this helps

No help :O( i dont get whats wrong.
what happens when you plug in the usb cord? Are any external drives shown on your computers file/drive viewer (my computer, etc)? If so can you open those drives, if not what does it say?
the way it should work is.
-DL the drivers here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7218057
-install the drivers on your PC
-hookup phone to PC via the provided usb cable
-on the phone drop down the notification bar and MOUNT the SD card.
-open My Computer or other file viewer
-see two external drives one the internal with about 13GB of total space and one the SD card with 2GB of total space
-add remove files from cards
I did all that. When i plug it in, my computer says "the usb device is not recognized" and proceeds to load a bogus driver. Ive installed the debugging driver, nothing. nothing shows up in my computer for the sd card, OR the phones own flash memory.
I have 3 separate android phones, never had this problem before.
try connecting the phone to your pc again. Make sure that on your phone, that youre using the mass-storage option. Next look at the top of your phone, and pull down the header bar. and click on the "usb connected" option or whatever it says, and then choose "mount" when it pops up.
That's how your actually turn on the mass-storage. dont know why its like this, thought it would be automatically done after chosing the mass-storage option.
I am having the same issue. Installed drivers but can't access the drives.
It does automatically set it self for mass storage, but the computer for some reason isnt seeing it. im pretty sure its a driver issue. or the usb port on the phone maybe bad... that would be annoying.

usb drive not recognized - help please :(

Hi
I've been using my Galaxy S as usual but today the phone/computer wont recognize it's connected as mass storage or kies.
There is no option on the phone to mount as it did before , all that pops up on windows 7 is usb drive not recognized
I searched on google and tried various things such as :
-USB debugging on and off
-Removing battery
-Trying different cable
-Trying different computer
-Factory data reset
-Formatting internal SD card
-Switching Laptop on + off/restarting
-Uninstalling/reinstalling drivers + Kies
I use the standard launcher and havent changed anything up to the point when it was working.
Does anybody have any suggestions. Im pretty sure its still in warranty however i purchased new on ebay last year so im not sure how all this warranty stuff works.
Do you use an external sd card? If so try this: put it out, turn phone off and on and try once more to connect

Yeah i think your external sd is ether corrupt or broken. i bet if you leave it out completly the phone gets recognized as it should.
Save your external sd data on pc (if you havent already) wipe your external sd and see if it works
If not you unfortunately have to buy a new one, at best from a different brand.

Did you update your firmware recently? I updated from 2.2 to 2.3.3 and it has a few issues, including not being able to connect as mass storage yesterday (though I had no such issue for the past few weeks).

Firmware was updated to 2.3.3 in may but haven't had any such problem with it until now
After trawling google some post said that they switched on their bluetooth connection and then connected to mass storage and hey presto i did this and all seems to be working again. Seems very strange but for those of you who stumble across this thread.
Switch on your bluetooth and then connect the usb cable.
In my case it connected without issue.
Switched off the bluetooth and tried and it connected without issue...so it could possibly something to do with bluetooth who knows?
Appreciate everyones input thankyou
Hi!
I have the same problem. Windows can't recognize my phone, even in download mode.
I have tried the bluetooth on-off trick, without success. I have no micro-sd card in the phone. I tried on 3 pc, and in my Macbook Pro.
Can someone help me?
Thanks,
David
p.s.: Sorry about my english.
Have you tried with other USB cabel ???? I had problem with my USB and recognizing phone on pc, even with instaling drivers :-( (sorry for bad english)

Also been in this situation. Couple of things I learnt:
1. make sure you have a well charged battery
2. fiddle with the usb connection on the sgs: it gets loose and is not always good, press the cable up and see if the pc gives the usb connnect sound
3. uninstall the existing Samsung drivers and then re-boot, then re-connect the usb and let windows find its own drivers or install the latest Samsung drivers posted here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956) -- but that guide also says, reboot the computer after installing the drivers prior to trying to connect the usb again. Its a windows thing: you must reboot after either install or uninstall the drivers.
Most probably it should be the USB cable, there is something wrong with your cable/port.
I had the exact same problem. I took my phone back to the dealer where the manager messed with it for half an hour. In the end he got it working by removing the sd card and power cycling the phone 3 times removing the battery each time. Presto, I haven't had the same problem since.

Sometimes a very careful tweak of the pins in the port can help, and it is not unknown for the soldering to be cracked, so both worth checking also a clean with a suitable cleaner can help

Is your cable a original one ??? or ??

Hi,
Copying with a cable can sometimes lead to data corruption.
Try using a card reader.

Try unmounting and mounting your sd card within android, that´s what´s happening anyway during a reboot, due to that you can see the files the second time around.
I have heard of an app, something like dual mount or so (i´m really not sure, sorry), try using that, maybe in that case the file system updates right away and not only after the next reboot.

USB Mass storage - Anyone managed it?

Hello,
I need to get the internal memory on my Note mounted as a USB storage device on my machine but have failed. I have tried various apps from Play and everything I can think of. Has anyone managed this with the Note 10.1? I hate MTP and PTP doenst work great IMHO.
Thanks for any help.

The only option to get UMS to work is to go asop based rom.
With stock roms , there needs to be a kernel that should support it and there is no kernel that does it yet.

What do you mean you wanna plug into your pc ax a storage device?

I suspect the goal is to connect the device with a drive letter, since some windows apps aren't able to access the device through the MTP connetion. Example being keepass synchronization won't work over an MTP connection.
Note doesn`t support mass storage mode. Tested with app wich can change usb connection mode
