[Q] Anyway to switch from MTP to Mass Storage? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

I'm having alot of problems transferring videos using MTP. Even if I set it to sync a video in windows media player everything crashes. Can I uninstall the drivers and get it to re-install with just mass storage? Would buying the USB adapter allow it to work as usb?

[REQ] Mass storage toggle app

I have a request, I know the TP2 have native Mass storage driver (ie the MicroSD can act as a flash drive), normally this depends on the Phone detecting a PC before activiating that feature.
However, I have a MP3 player that accept USB flash drive, but plugging my phone into the player won't trigger the mass storage activiation.
Does anyone know how to toggle it manually somehow somewhere? or can write a small/quick app to do that?
Thanks in advance
The option is under All settings, connections tab, USB to PC, then Disk Drive.
Give that a go...
I use mine in my car which has a usb port that reads flash drives and just plays songs via folder selection, however it doesnt charge from it.
There is an app I use called wm5torage that should work for what you want. It toggles the usb connetion as a mass storage device. Give it a try and see if it works for you.

Doesn't work, as I mention that depends on the Phone detecting the connection as a PC before it would activate the Mass storage feature (you can tell because the storage card disappear from file explorer) and my phone just won't detect my MP3 player as a PC

Generic USB

Is it possible to develop a compatible generic USB driver for our beloved SSGS? It would be cool to just plug in your SSGS to any PC or car stereo and get recognized without downloading the driver first. SSGS is incompatible with everything...
mass storage doesn't work for you?
Yeah was gonna say that too....
The only time I've loaded drivers was to use odin other than that I've just plugged it in??
It does'nt work with car stereo ;(
Most MP3 audio system thingy uses generic driver so... it doesn't work. Sorry, I guess it works on other PCs with the mass storage switched on but not the car radio systems or similar systems. I have a Honda Jazz/Fit - debug mode, mass storage, media player mode... don't work. It says "unsupport".
Moto Milestone is compatible with most MP3 audio system. Is there a way to extract that driver?
I'm pretty sure that is not a driver problem but something that relates to the USB-Controller in the SGS. It is a different one than the one in the Milestone/Droid and thus the driver's won't work. It also means that a "native" mass storage mode is most likely impossible
I do think the mass storage on sgs is generic mass storage like every commercial USB drive. None of my Windows machine requires special drivers to mount the partitions on PC.
Anyway, drivers are supposedly to be loaded on host, not the phone. Even if you wrote a driver which works, you will have to find ways to load into your audio system, which is likely not possible.
P.s. Upon selecting mass storage when prompted, did you pull down the notification bar and click on mount? Otherwise it would be just an unloaded drive to the host.

[Q] Nexus 4 USB connecting issue!!! :(

so for my computer running on windows xp, it can't really access the files/storage in it. In mtp mode, it connects as mtp music player.. it runs auto play but gives me blank options, and it doesnt show up on My Computer. the camera one is just displaying camera stuff...
most computers i can access can connect and transfer files to the nexus 4 or have different issues. i primary use the one running on xp, is there a way to fix this?
the mtp music player pops up regardless of stock/custom rom and usb debugging.

MTP and Windows XP do not properly work together.
I had the same problems. Hopefully this helps you or someone else with the same.
What I found that worked for me was
-make sure usb debugging is off
-use the generic windows drivers as the regular drivers (the google/lg ones are fine for fastboot/adb drivers)
-update to windows media player 11 <--- wmp10 was able to see all of the folders to "sync" but the Nexus 4 was not showing up in MyComputer
If you use a password for your phone, make sure you unlock the phone when the device is connected for your contents to show up

This method of accessing phone memory is thought obsolete. Owing to various reasons MTP mode is found in all devices having huge Internal memory. But there is awesome workaround,
Download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.devwom.usbsharereval where this app enables a virtual USB Drive. While This is an advanced app requiring Root access and prior knowledge of SuperSU, XDA has huge info if you're willing to learn about those. Try this free version app and if it helps consider purchasing https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.devwom.usbsharer which allows unlimited files on your USB Virtual drive...
(Always Thank those who help...)
thanks

[Q] Permanent External Mount Point?

I'm trying to use my N7 in the car as a media playback device. I've got it connected via USB OTG to a hub, Behringer UCA 202 DAC, and 128GB flash drive. The issue I'm having is that when the device reboots or I go in to a media playback app without it connected (N7 player, VLC, or Poweramp) it can't find the files and needs to rescan-WHICH TAKES FOREVER! Is there a way that I can permanently set/code either in the Android program or the app itself a location so it just thinks the file is there-perhaps eliminating the need for Stickmount?
