For A500, is there any way to turn off the MTP mode and just get A500 to act as an USB drive (i.e. USB mass storage)?
For copying large files, Acer Sync's speed is ok, but I copy offline newspapers for viewing on A500, and that involves thousands of small files. MTP's speed for copying large number of small files is much slower than USB drive. For example, I can copy a whole newspaper to a USB thumbdrive in 3 minutes, while using MTP mode it takes 15 minutes.
I'm new with the Acer, and I don't have an answer to your question, but I wondered about using a thumb drive. Needs to be formatted to fat 32. Just use the thumb drive like you would the micro sd card. 4 gig thumb drives are pretty cheap.

Woody, I think you misunderstood my question, my question is not about using a thumb drive on A500... I would like the A500 to behave like a usb thumb drive when plugged in the micro USB cable to a PC's USB port.
The other annoying thing I forgot to mention about Acer Sync is that it is single task when copying files. You can only copy one file at a time, you try to copy another file before the first one is finished and it'll tell you the file system is busy...

If you're running 3.2 when you plug your tab into your PC your tab should pop right up on your PCs screen giving you two drives to choose from. External or internal SD card.. Drag and drop. Never heard of anyone using Acer Sync to copy files before.?!?

Are you using A500? I know other tabs are like that, which is the normal usb drive mode. A500 isnt like that, it'll recognise as a A500 tab in win7, not a drive, and copying files is via this special protocol, not like a usb drive.

Ummmmm my signature clearly states I'm using an A500, and I've never used Acer Sync in my life. Drag and drop files just like a thumb drive. It comes up as an A500 in win 7. You double click on the A500, and it will show 2 drives (internal SDcard, and external SDcard). Double click on whichever drive you want to copy files to, and drag and drop them in, or use "copy and paste".

That is using the PTP kind of protocol already, not acting like a thumb drive. Just do a simple test, copy one large file to the SDcard, and then before it finishes try to copy another file to it, it'll say the file system is busy. USB thumbdrive won't behave like that. Copy large number of small files in this PTP kind of protocol is much much slower than thumbdrive.
Also, try plugin in your A500 to a WinXP PC, it won't even recognise it without installing drivers for it.

You are correct, only one at a time when copy files unless you highlight two at same time, if i connect the usb drive directly into win7 pc it will automatically add to the loading file, as for the recognzie pc acer do say that on their support page...
there is a auto sync option in settings under accounts and sync..

Of course WinXP needs drivers, that's a given. It's a 10 yr old OS!
Your first post stated that you were using Acer Sync to copy your files.
I was simply wondering what kind of person would use Acer Sync to copy files when you can simply drag and drop them into your tab.
I tried what you asked. Started by dragging and dropping a movie to the tab, then tried d/d a few docs, and it indeed said busy.
When I chose them all at once and dragged and dropped them in, it copied fine, and much faster than a few of my thumb drives (three times the speed).
Question for you now. Why can't you simply choose all the files you want, drag and drop them into your tab and wait for it to copy the files, and be done with it? And second question is why would you ever choose Acer Sync to copy your files over?!?

I did, in fact I chose a whole directory to copy to the A500. My problem is the speed, with thousands of small files, copying the files using this way is slow in comparison to thumbdrive, at least double the time.... in fact, I can copy the files to a thumbdrive and then plug that thumbdrive in the A500 to copy to it, and I can finish the copying action faster this way than plugging in the A500 directly to the PC.... so speed for copying large number of small files is my only main issue
The side issue is winxp, without the USB drive mode, I can't connect to my office PC as I dont have admin rights to install programs on that PC... and one last thing, I probably put the subject wrong, I didn't use the Acer Sync, I'm using that PTP kind of protocol as per default, I thought that was Acer Sync at first

PTP or MTP? PMPs and most media devices use MTP. They're generally designed this way so that you don't corrupt files or damage the files on the flash drive by disconnecting without first removing the drive in Windows. It shouldn't technically be that much slower than a thumb drive if you multi-select stuff. I generally sync my mp3 list when I'm going to travel in case I don't have wifi and xfer time seems similar if not quicker than copying them to a thumb drive.
I'll try to see if I can get some small files, maybe pictures and test those.

I know, theoretically it shouldn't be that slow. Practically, I don't know what's wrong with Acer's implementation of it, it is dead slow copying large number of small files. To give you an idea, the offline newspaper I copied is about 1,000 files, mostly html about 1k big. The jpg files are about 100-300k big. It took me about 15-20 minutes to copy those files to my A500 via the usb cable. If I take my SDcard out and copy the files direct to the SDcard using a card reader, that can be done in 3 minutes.

I did another test using mp3s and the xfer was fast. Copied 150 files, 890MB total in 3m 35s using a class 4 card. That's around right.
Ironically, the same files took 6m 20s to the internal drive.
The only conclusion I can make at this point is that for some reason the bigger the file, the faster the transfer to the external SD. The smaller the file, the faster the transfer to the internal drive. This is all speculation.
Can you try copying them to the internal drive and let me know what you come up with? I myself am going to now try a comparison of 1 big movie file.
Update: I finished the other test. Puzzling. 1 MP4 file @ 2.26GB copied in ~3m to the external SD card.
In the same amount of time, just 1/3 of the file copied to the internal storage (I stopped that transfer, it was going to take ~9-10m).
I could only start to guess what's up. Maybe the A500 is actively scanning files being transferred to the internal storage and it ignores files smaller than a certain size or there's some other overhead going on and "noticing" media files, vs. any other kind.
The SD card is for the most part on the other hand, free and clear. I get the same results from my phone and its external SD, and that's connected like a Thumb Drive, as you put it.
Note that both the internal storage AND SD card are still accessible when the A500 is plugged in through USB, unlike most phones where the SD card is first unmounted.
What class microSD are you using? I think your best result might be copying directly to the tablet OR buying a faster microSD card.
I did the test to internal storage, it is even slower than SDcard.
I did another test - copying 400 html files of 1-4k, a total of only 1.6MB. The A500 took 3 minutes to do that, while my thumbdrive finished in 18 seconds. The A500 can only do less than 3 files per second, no matter how small the files are, that makes copying large number of small files a pain in the a$$.
I used a class 10 SDcard, and the result is about the same, the problem is with the interface, not the SDcard speed. You won't notice the slowness unless you are copying files that are really small, if you copy MP3 files that is 5MB big, you won't reach the limit of 3 files per second anyway.
from reply i read
i assume people using win 7 DIDNT REALIZE that a500 use MTP, because a500 just shows up like a usb drive altough in reality they dont get any drive (they just dont care)
only people with mac and win xp will realize a500 use MTP ,

I know exactly what you're saying. it's pretty horrible that the a500 uses MTP for file transfer.
Some workarounds I found was to transfer files using FTP, which is much faster for several small files so even over the wireless it'll be faster.
Also some other techniques I found were to zip the many files on my computer, transfer the zip and unzip them on the acer.
Also the other obvious is to plug the microsd card to your computer with usb.

Yes, sadly I have to use other workarounds, there seems no way to use USB mass storage mode on USB. I now copy the files to a USB thumbdrive, and then insert that thumbdrive to A500 to move the files to A500. Even though that is twice the work, it is still much faster than using MTP transfer alone.
It's not the A500's fault it uses MTP. You can thank Google for that as they're the ones who built it in to Honeycomb and dropped USB Storage mode.
Hopefully it'll be back in ICS...
Alternatively, some file managers will allow you to send files via wifi to and from the tab. For me this is the prefered method (I use file expert, which is free). However, I noticed that occasionally large files like movies may fail, perhaps due to signal quality. I haven't had any problems with individual files up to 200-300 MB.
Hummmm not sure if this has been asked. Where are you putting the files at on your Iconia.If your putting them on the external SD card. Remember not all SD cards are treated equal.
Check the speed class of the card.and run a test to see how fast it can actually accept the files. Just because a card says class 10 does not mean its built well enough to handle that speed.
Internal storage can sometimes be slower then others as well.This would be considered a defective device.
I would surest to see if its faster or slower depending on where you store them.for me storing on my. Class 10. Ocl sd card..

Has anybody else had an issue with trying to get large files onto the microdrive?
By large, I'm talking on the order of over 1gb.
Using the default route, of course activesync gets into the mix and has to get its grubby little paws onto the file to see if it needs conversion. It doesn't. But I can start the copy process (from my computer hard disk) and it will never stop and there is no progress on the progress bar.
I've also tried using wm5storage but also had no luck.
At this point I may have to find a large miniSD card and just copy files directly to that using a card reader and then insert that into my x7501.

I had copied 3.8 GB size files using wm5torage without problem. The only thing you have to be aware is that the latest wm5torage posted on modaco is buggy, and would drop out before you could finish copy. After testing it for a while, I went 2 version back, and it works everytime, perfectly. The drawback of this application is sometimes it is difficult to get it working, if you have other programs or plugins running. The way to overcome it is to do a soft reset then run wm5torage (old version only, remember). You must have activesync installed on your pc.
I had also tried card export II. However, this application is still a little strange, in that sometimes it wants you to reinstall it again and again. But once reinstalled, I could use it. The advantage of this application is that, once you have reinstalled it (although you have already installed it!), your pc need not have activesync, and you don't need to worry about the other programs or plugins.
Hope this helps.

I do tranfer 2 or 3 700-750Mb avi files at the same time via AS. No problems at all. After each file, it pauses as if to cache, then starts loading/transferring to microdrive. Sometimes the pauses last up to a minute or more. I used to worry before. Now I just leave it, go do something else and its copying by the time I get back. it's not the same as 1 huge file but...........
I hope this helps.
I use Resco Exporer to map a drive from my desktop and pull files down over wifi. This seems to be more reliable than AS.

I do this also but takes far too long to transfer anything big, I did that the other night transfering some albums to MD. what took an hour could have been done in 6 min with wmstorage.
I've got an .avi that I'm trying to copy to my microsd. The avi is 678MB and the card is 2GB with 1.4GB empty.
When I try to copy the file it gets to two bars and then restarts, and keeps on restarting without anything getting copied.
Any ideas?

Are you connecting to the PC using ActiveSync? If so, connect as a USB drive. File transfer is much faster and more stable with that connection type.
what restarts? the computer? the transfer progress?active sync?
do you have a card reader on your pc? if so try put the card in that.
Genius, thanks
That worked a treat - obvious really
Active Sync does that .... it will eventually copy just slowly and the progress bar doesnt reflect the progress... go figure.
But better off using USB Disk Drive as it copies quicker.

It's easier when you know how
If you are still wondering:
- What is the breakdown of that 32GB Xoom internal memory (how many parition, how much space for apps / files)?
- Why Google is using MTP instead of USB file transfer on Honeycomb?
Here is straight answer from Google developer:
MTP is a big improvement over USB mass storage — for devices with lots of internal memory, a manufacturer no longer needs to come up with some hard partition between the USB mass storage and internal storage. Instead, they are all in one partition, with MTP providing access to the directory of media files that would normally be available through USB mass storage.This means there is no longer a need for apps on SD card for such devices, because what used to be the “internal SD card” is in the same partition as where applications are stored. The storage on your device can be used for either applications or media, depending on what you want to put on it. You aren’t stuck with how much space the manufacturer decided to leave for the two areas.
Oh also this means that the media storage doesn’t need to be unmounted from Android when it is being access through the PC.

Finally, true APP2SD You now have 32GB to put all your apps!!!
Sounds like a good thing!
This is a great explanation. Thanks for posting.
There is no doubt that mtp has advantages over mass storage. On the other hand I miss the ability to attach it to any computer and access files. It is not a huge problem but does add a limitation that was not there before.
That saod it is nice being able to access files on my computer without losing access to the partition on the device.

I'm sure future versions of CWM will be set to ignore that one folder.. I hope. Otherwise nandroid backups will take forever.
I'm not sure in terms of security it is a huge improvement; unless there is an option to turn it on/off somewhere.
Previously I would have to plug an Android device in to my computer, turn the device on, enter my unlock code, and then specifically allow the computer access via the USB. This morning I just plugged my xoom in and, poof, access to all my stuff.
At least before someone had to take my sdcard out at put it in their computer manually
Does MTP have anything to do with file size limit? I've seen posted on this forum that you can't load video files larger than 4gb onto the Xoom because of FAT32, is that still the case?
This MTP also seems to hide a lot of file from being seen by a pc. I open folders with File manager on the Xoom and see more folders namely the android folder which has game save data and other odd ball files. When hooked to a pc its blank. With MTP it seems all your allowed to do is transfer music, video and pics.

Still haven't got around to testing (so many things to try out!), but in some of the video threads, I've been told XOOM uses EXT4 format not FAT32, and thus, should not have that 4GB limit. I've been re-encoding video files to meet XOOM's current playback limitations, and have been reducing them to sub 4GB anyway, so I haven't tested that for myself.
When connected to Either Windows or Linux I can't see the Add-in MicroSD card in the Acer.
The annoying Acer Sync app launches, and that will show me only main memory, not the expansion card or any usb devices plugged into the standard sized usb port. Linux never shows anything.
I know I can move things with a file manager, but Calibre can't move ebooks to a device unless I am able to map a drive letter to it, and Calibre for Linix at least has to see the device.
Under linux it simply never shows up.
Is there a setting in the Acer to tell it to simply show all storage?

I'm not trying to be an ass or anything, but why are you so determined to put your books on the external SD drive? You have at least 16 gig internally, and most books take up VERY little space unless they are in .PDF format. Even a hundred books would take up next to nothing of the 16 gig.
Let your books stay on the internal drive and put the really big stuff - music, pictures, videos - on the external drive. If you do that it is unlikely you will fill up the internal drive any time soon, if ever.
Besides, your reader app probably wouldn't find the books on that drive anyway. We are hoping for some better functionality with the upcoming 3.1 release.
Have fun, and download File Manager HD. It works with network shares, making the USB cable almost unnecessary.

I wonder if something like the NookColorUMS app that allows mounting of any partition would work for the Transformer. I too am unable to get the ASUS software to see my Transformer in the sync software when plugged in.

I used wifi explorer pro, it's like a buck but you can transfer files wireless over the network. Kind of a hassle though now that I just use dropbox.

Download and sign up for drop box https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTY4MDQ5MTk?src=referrals_fb_post9
It's free. You install it on your Tablet and on your PC. Whatever you put in the dropbox folder (music, pictures etc), it automatically upload to account and you sync with your tablet tablet. It's an amazing piece of software and more convenient than using a sd card. . If you do decide to use dropbox, use my referral links above so we both get more space.

I've had wifi file explorer and dropbox forever and they do work good but for large transfers or speed you need to use usb.
As I said before if someone could make an app like the one for the nook color where you can mount any partition, even system partitions, that would be perfect.
