I have all drivers installed It mounted before I had some voodoo issues.. but now i connect it and it recognizes phone and it charges.. but when i hit mount nothin happen only one time it showed me an error saying "windows cannot read this its read only file blah blah click to format it" when i try to format it it fails every time..
'm having the same problem...........very annoying!
I just had something similar happen. I had a flaky connection in the cable that came with the phone, intermittant charging/ hide & seek with my laptop. It would see the SD card but not access it. New cable, had same problem so I uninstalled & reinstalled the Samsung drivers and that fixed it. The mass storage driver was corrupted by the flaky connection I think.

I was wondering if anyone has this problem. A few days ago when I mounted my SD card in usb file transfer mode. I got an errors from Windows saying it detected errors on my drive and i have the option of continue or scan & fix. When I hit continue it seems to work. However, when I hit Scan and Fix, my computer gets blue screened. I tried on another computer and the same thing happened. Any ideas? Not really an issue but more of an annoyance.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit.

Does it on mine to.
You will need to put the SD card into a standard reader and run scan and fix with it. The HTC Hardware i think causes the issue.
Also, to avoid it from happening in the future use the "Safely Remove" stuff and Unmount the card.
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.
Hello! (first post , have been reading for a while though)
I can't connect the phone to my PC (win7 64bit), not as a mass storage device or with Kies (it worked fine before with my home PC and an XP machine at work).
It stopped working after the PC said "Device drivers installed properly" (or something like that) when I connected it, after that I have'nt been able to make it work as mass storage device on any computer..
Very strange and very annoying!
I'm thinking I might factory reset the phone (would very anti-nice though to loose all apps and stuff), so I thought I'd ask here first if there are any possible solutions..
Thx!
if you open device manager in Win7 x64 do you see it listed as GT-I9000 in Portable Devices ?
that's what it shows in mine, and i'm on x64 Win7
it automatically opens in Mass Storage also works in Kies
WEE!! Got it to work just now!!
Rebooted the phone (as I do every day) and connected it to charge over night, and windows popped up with the "installing device driver blabla dialogue" and suddenly it works!?!
This after not working for at least a week on any computer...
I have no idea what might have caused it, but I'm just happy it works again
Still, very strange...
It shows up in the device manager now, it did'nt before.. Thx for the reply!
On Win XP
is there a certain driver i have to download before using USB Mass Storage option.
all i get are two removable drives icon. but they can't be opened
you should only have 1 removeable device icon, 2 if you have a micro SD card inserted.
if you configure the phone to ask you what to do with the usb during connection, then you can select Kies or Mass Storage
regardless both works fine
i do have two removable drives because of the addition of the sd card
its set on Mass Storage. but it still won't open. im not sure if Windows installed it properly though
the driver details:
driver files- system32\drivers\USBSTOR.sys
does it shows in device manager, as mentioned above ?

After connecting the phone via USB, did tell the phone to Mount the drives?
anyone else encountered this issue?
Is anyone else having trouble connecting their Galaxy to a PC? I don't know whether mine is faulty or not. Downloaded the Samsung Kies software but when I plug in the Galaxy Windows is unable to find a MTP USB device driver and the phone refuses to connect. This happens Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. Also the Galaxy has a complete fit and keeps flashing between the home screen and MTP application screen while it's connected (wxw.youtube.com/watch?v=R9hdpJPCP-k). And I don't get the usual Android option to mount for file transfer. Am I missing something?

Hey all,
I have downloaded the Windows 7 64 bit drivers for my Fascinate. Installed them...but when i go to mount my SD card I can see it in Windows Explorer but it says CD drive F: Verizon Mobile. I cannot see anything on my SD card at all. How can I get this mounted. I am rooted and I have USB debugging on. Any other ideas on how to get this to work.
Pull down the notification bar at the top of the phone. Press mount sd card. Your problem mabe deeper than this but I just thought best to start simple. If u still can't get it we need more info like is it DI01,DJ05, or DL09

No, I cannot mount that way. I am on dl09. Very frustrating.

I had the same issue. I flashed Adrynalyne's latest voodoo kernel 01/21 low voltage and it seemed fixed it for me. I'm running DL09 supah clean 04 also.
See here and go to Test 4 this maybe your issue.

This is the official response from Samsung:
"There is no SD card mount issue on Windows OS. After user connects USB cable, Windows OS will recognize the device as CD-Rom, and the ToolLauncher_Bootstrap.exe will be running by autorun function. (WinXP only, Win 7 user should run ToolLauncher_Bootstrap.exe by himself ). At this point either user can ignore the installation of TL and use mass storage directly, or wait 30 secs timeout and the device will be changed to mass storage.
Another option is that user can change the settings -> USB setting to 'Ask on connection' from mass storage(default). It will allow user to go to mass storage directly by selecting mass storage.
But The mass storage is not working on MAC OS from previous version, and We have a fix for that in FROYO release."
Hope this helps.
I have the same issue when using certain kernels not sure if it is in the kernel or not. the only way i am able to mount the sd or use pda net is to plug the phone into the comp and reboot the phone after the phone reboots the comp recognizes it. I know this is not a fix but it does work everytime and the phone is recognized until the next time i reboot my phone without it being plugged into comp. This is a temp fix until you can find a better fix.
Recently, I installed a theme incorrectly which lead me to factory reset my phone. I am currently trying to install dl09 but I can't seem to get into my SD card from my computer. When I plug the usb into my computer + phone, it pops up a window "CD Drive (F Verizon Mobile" instead of the usual pop up for my SD card. In the folder there are files to install Samsung usb drives but I don't need them so I just click exit. I'm assuming this is getting in the way of getting to my SD card and even though I install the drivers using Verizon's files, it keeps giving me the popup. How can I solve this issue? Thanks in advance.
Try rebooting the phone while its plugged into the pc, that usually works

With DL09, that would happen to me, but all I had to do was wait a minute or so and the CD-ROM device would unmount and then the standard USB Mass Storage device would mount and the USB would kick in on the phone. No, really, that's not a joke
I also found that with both DL09 and the leaked Froyo, setting the phone USB to Ask on Connection worked better than arbitrarily setting Mass Storage for some reason.
My phone has started doing this after installing DL30, but I found that if you right click on the cd drive and click eject, your phone will then display the mass storage pop up and you can mount the sd card as usual.

Tried rebooting while phone was plugged in, no luck.
Waited when phone was plugged in, popup did not disappear.
Right clicked and ejected the F:\, still no luck.
Have you tried enabling USB debugging under Applications->Development? This fixes the issue for me on DL30.
