when u connect your phone to linux and MOUNT sd card from notifications then your sd card should be mounted on linux.. It works well for me on ubuntu
Mounting your sd card should say to your computer that its just like a flash storage, it will know how to use it.

When i try to mount my sd card to my laptop it just doesn't stay mounted. Right after i tap mount it dismounts. I had this issue on ALL 1.5 builds. When i connect to any other computer it works perfectly. Any ideas? i tried deleting the drivers and re-installing them several times that doesn't work. I think it maybe an error with my registry or maybe some software i have on here blocking it idk. This GeekSquad agent is officially confused
Registry? What is this nonsense? Are you registered as an offender and the court has mind control software installed on your computer? Best to wipe the thing clean and install Linux, then everything will work.
thats way to much of a hassle dont you think?
reinstaling the computer os to mount a phone? noo
there has to be a better way
but if ur meaning to do a fresh install of everything then formating and starting over will work
but whats prob the problem is that your drivers are conflicting with each other
i wish i could help but try to do a fresh wipe of your phone and see if u can install the drivers on your own...again
dumb question, but this isn't as well known as it probably should be. Does the laptop have usb 2.0 or usb 1.1/1.0? And if it has power saving options, see if it maybe toggles to the slower usb when that's on. I have an issue with usb 2.0 on my motherboard (something's corrupted/broken) and can't use windows with it active, so I can only use usb1.0...and the sd card starts to mount but then errors out.
Hope this helps, that's the only issue I've had and it's only happened on my home desktop, works fine on my wifes pc and my work pc.
the usb port only slows down when its not in use after a certain time
the bios is set up like that
but if ur usb is constantly slowing down you should either update your bios or update your system all together and change some advanced settings to keep the usb running all the time
I had the same issue after upgrading to 1.5 w/ apps2sd. I ended up having to upgrade the driver. Windows will tell you that your using the best driver but you will need the one that you would use for fastboot etc. BTW you can always just use your sd adapter and see if windows can read it that way and if it does your good to go. Also did you recently partition or format the card and how old is it?

Yea the sd card is perfect just bought a pny 8gb sd card $20 , but i have tried upgrading the driver to the fastboot drivers that doesn't help, i installed a clean version of windows on a separate HD and it works fine, so i know it's a software/driver issue on my end
btw all my usb ports are 2.0 guess I'll just use my sd card reader in the mean time hopefully new releases fixes this issue
I've tried everything I can think of doing here, but no matter what I do, my phone won't connect via USB Mass Storage to my computer. I'm trying to update to the newest firmware (1.5 right?), can I do it directly from my phone? Help please
Look in disk management, see if its showing up in there.
I have the same problem, but I know mine is because the SD card got corrupted somehow. The problem is now , i dont know how to format it!! Windows cant read it and G-Phone's format pretty much did nothing. Im not sure where to go from here..... :S

Have you tried clicking on the 'USB Connected' Notification on the phone and mounting the card?
I apologize in advance if this has been answered already but my search revealed nothing.
Question:
Does Microsoft Outlook need to be installed on a computer before that computer will recognize the phone so the SD can be mounted for file transfers back and forth?
I have tried to mount the SD on my wifes' HERO with no luck while its attached to her lappy. She does not have Outlook installed on that lappy. I do however on my pc and my pc recognizes the phone, allows me to Mount and Un-Mount the SD and transfer files. Anyone experiencing this?
Thx in advance Y'all......

No, Outlook does not interact with Mounting your Hero. All that is needed is HTC Sync/Phone drivers installed.
Thats what I thought but for some reason, even tho the proper drivers are installed, still no Mount.
What is happening is:
When I mount the SD, the phone mounts, then unmounts over and over again. Only does this while connected to the wife's lappy. Also, in the Notification screen, Mount flashes on and off as the phone mounts and unmounts.
When connected to my pc or lappy, all is normal and works perfectly. Kinda baffled.
Any suggestions.
That is weird. Mine mounts to my work computer just fine even without the drivers and HTC Sync.
YUP, Mine does also on my Lappy, Work pc and home pc. Tried on my wife's lappy and used 3 different USB cables and tried all her USB ports. I am really baffled.
Any help, thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated Mates
Hey all,
So I just ran ClockworkMod (2.5.13) and wiped my Vibrant in preparation for the new Bionix. I have found that on my phone I had to wipe sdcard too or it wouldn't wipe fully. The problem: ClockworkMod won't let me mount USB storage or mount sdext so I can't figure out how to get the new ROM on the phone. Voodoo is also enabled and I can't seem to disable it without a working ROM on the phone.
When I plug the phone into my PC the "H" and "I" drives automatically pop up but are inaccessible. Mounting USB storage in ClockWorkMod appears to do nothing.
Any ideas? Thanks!
ohhhhhhhhh
I had the same problem last night but i thought my PC was acting up. I guess it has to do with CWM, but idk why.
What i did was copy the ROM on my external sd card, then put it on the phone and move them to internal sd card
Hope that help
you can use adb to push file to your phone.

CWM won't let me mount SDEXT. Is there something special I have to do to get this to work?
You may have to pull the sd card and use an external card reader.

ADB did the trick. I didn't realize it could push to the phone like that. Easy cheesy. Thanks!
And as for external SD card reader - this doesn't do anything to help transfer a file to the phone. Recovery was unable to mount SDEXT. I can't find any documentation on the matter, but I assume this is a Vibrant-related issue?
Hi, I just have the exact problem on my galaxy note. Trouble is that I can't find a way to connect to my phone through ADB. It just isn't listed when I type "adb devices". I would appreciate any help so I could "push" a rom and be done with it.

Check Applications/Development/Enable USB Debugging. If that is on, make sure you have the necessary drivers on the PC.
As for mounting via CWM, that should work if CWM gives the option. Again, check drivers on PC.
I was interested in transfering files from my hone (Nexus s 4g) and my A500. I wanted to know if this is possible by simply plugging the phone into the tablet's usb port. If not, is there any drivers or apps i can download to let me do so? Basically, i want it to be like when i plug it into my computer. I want it to show up like a hard drive.
Also, i have a external harddrive and had a question on how to format it. When i right click hit format is comes up as NTFS being the default file system. The onl y other option is exFat. Is that the same as Fat32? I've heard Fat32 is the only file system that works.
Thanks for the help!
