LPY ICS has USB mass storage mode, indeed - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

Don't know whether this is already well known... I didn't, being new to ICS.
In particular, I spent a lot of time today to try 'n' connect my Note freshly loaded with LPY ICS to my ubuntu box in MTP mode. I also upgraded to the latest version of ubuntu, 12.04, in order to get gmpt.
No way I could make it work. Also tried mtpfs but no joy.
Then, while lazily looking at the new general setup menu, I discovered an item I didn't expect... namely under Wireless and Network / Other, there was an USB setup item (I'm translating from Italian so in English it might be different).
Tap that, then tap connect, and you get the familiar USB guest connection that was default in Gingerbread.
And, ubuntu immediately sees it and mounts both internal and external storage... Very nice!

Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23880938 flashable zip for rooted users which adds this function to notification bar like in GB.
tested, works ok

It does not work on all devices. That thread contains many posts made by those for whom it won't work, including my Acer Iconia A500 tablet.

Connect to PC via USB

Yesterday I was able to connect my Tab to my Win XP PC using the USB cable. I was able to transfer files without difficulty. But, some how I must have changed a setting on the Tab and the Tab is no longer recognized by any of my PC's. I think it is a Sync setting that was changed.
Now, when I connect using the USB cable, the PC says " Found New Hardware MTP"
What settiing do I need to change to get the PC to recognize the Tab?
Check under application > development > usb debugging.
Thanks, I found a USB driver on the Acer site. That seems to have solved the problem. But, that driver was not needed yesteray, and I don't know what "MTP" means?

Even my Windows 7 boxes do not recognize the a500 without installing the USB driver from the Acer site. Guess you somehow got lucky
Mine always saw the internal 16gb on my Win7 machine. Before the latest updates, I was able to connect with my Win7 PC with no problem and even go to STORAGES and see my 32gb card. It no longer works now. All I see now is SD which is empty.
Which means I cannot copy anything directly to the Micro SD (external_sd). It worked before the last couple of updates. I'm currently running 4.010.10. Now I have to copy it to the 16 internal from the PC and then use the tablet to copy it to the external_sd.
Acer giveth and taketh away.... bummer.
Edit: And yes ... my debugging is on. Always has been. Stock kernel too.
Anyone figure this out yet?
I can't connect on my Win7-64 PC at all.
My 32 bit laptop will connect, but not to SD card, only internal SD.
Try turning development off when using usb go pc which no need for driver, if development is on then you need driver installed.

i can't get my tab to connect to my mac , ive tried both usb ports, ive tried ticking usb-debugging on and off with no luck. Anyone know whats wrong?
If you are having usb issues go to acers web site and go to the drivers and download section for the iconia a500. make sure you look under the honeycomb 3.0 downloads and not the 3.1. as the drivers are not listed under 3.1. download the drivers to your pc (not your tablet)and install. it is an 89 megabyte file so I am sure it has the drivers for everyone in it.
Alos if you are ojn honeycomb 3.0 make sure you get the wi-fi unpate as well while you are there it fixes lots of wi-fi problems.
Remember to thanks if I have helped you.
Thanks for the quick reply in the drivers package There is none for mac and on my fascinate it connects without problem and i never instaled any drivers
Chuban7, Hi well I am not a mac person but I did look around the net a bit and from what I see there are not usb drivers persay for android for mac. but what i have found is there are several companies who mac sync software that connects android to mac. One site to check out is http://www.salling.com/MediaSync/mac/ they have free versions of thier software to use. Give it a try. but there are many other venders of mac to android sync software. seems only way from what I read cant find usb drivers anywhere for ya for any android device.
You can also look through the android market for a free program called"auto mount your sd card" supose to work with mac but I dont know as I dont have a mac
MY personal choice is a program also free on market called "software data cable" again suppose to work with macs and pc's it is completely wireless so no usb cable needed to transfere files so in theory then no usb drivers needed either.
You can also use a program called dropbox allso free it works great just drop files into the dropbox folder and then once they upload go open dropbox on your android and bingo there ya go thier is your files. works in reverse too for android to computer.
Only thing I can figure is that apple hates android and between them and microsoft are tring to run android into the ground so it would stand to reason if you hated a compeating vendor why would you make it easy for them to run thier devices on your software. There is a reason apples Ipod/pad stuff works and others dont apple dont want you to buy android lol.
Just my little conspericy theory stuff good luck hope any of this helps you.
I have the same issue with Linux so it's not a Mac issue. I can plug my Android phone in and it mounts and show up as a USB device that I can then take a file manager and copy/paste/delete files. I use this all the time to transfer files to my phones sd card. Neither the A100 or the A500 will mount as a drive on my Linux machine. I like them but that is pretty much a deal breaker to me.

Somehow I feel very doubtful that your Linux OS cannot be set up to mount the a500 as a USB storage device. My Linux skills are rather rusty and outdated, however - so I could be wrong. Can you emulate a stripped down version of windows from your Linux system to get around this?
I can vouch for using software data cable (free app from AM).
Works perfectly with my iMac and should do with PC, since it essentially opens an FTP port on the Iconia (port 8888 by default) that can be accessed by any FTP client on the computer (I use Cyberduck on Mac, FireFTP plugin for Firefox works on all OS's).
If you are rooted, check root access in the app settings to get into the root, and find /mnt/external_SD for the add-on card. It is probably smartest not to leave the root access on all of the time unless you really need it as there is abundant opportunity to create havoc accidentally

I didn't say it couldn't be done, I just think that it's strange and wrong to make an Android device dependent on having Windows. Yes I suppose I could install Windows in a Vm but I won't.
Using Google (pun intended) I found a fairly simple solution. It's not plug-n-play but is very doable even by an non techie.
There are also some ways of access the Tab file system using a browser and Wifi

Nice app thanks, didn't show up when searching for FTP servers. ;(
The only minor issue I see is that at 1st glance it appears that you don't have access to the external_sd card unless Rooted.
Did work better than any of the other FTP servers I have tried.

[Q] Problems with my new TPT

I just bought my Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet.
And i noticed some problems that if some one could help me i would appreciate.
1)Were can i find the youtube app. At least the most recent one. I cannot find it on the android Market or the lenovo Market.
2) How can I send files to the tablet using the micro usb cable. I use mac an linux machines and it is not recognize. I Noticed that the USB options are not switchable by the user. On windows asks for drivers (which i cannot find by the eway). Is there a way to access the internal memory using micro usb?
3) Is there a way to use a Portuguese keyboard an still have the tablet in English. It seems that it always chose the layout of the keyboard based on the system language.
Hope that some one can help me...
Thanks in advanvce...
answers:
1) download it Here
2) copy files by using this app. it will ever work on any platform without any drivers.
3) i'm using my tablet in english too. using german keyboard layout because i'm german . don't know if it's the same for potuguese but if you go to settings then language & input you can choose the keyboard layout. try it
First of all thanks for your reply...
1) thanks that was just what i was looking for... Does it update via market now that i have it installed?
2) I know these type of applications but for over the air i use ssh. I Intend to copy some large files and that would be easier and faster using the micro usb cable. Do you know a way to do that? My htc desire when i connect it to a pc via usb cable I can teel it what to do (mass storage device, charge only, etc, ...) what to do, but that option is blocked in my tablet.
3) I have to try that tomorrow when i arrive at the office ill give it a try.
By the way how can i change the host name of the tablet?
2) use sd card, it's the simpliest and fastest way

That is not a very good solution I have 16GB of memory that I would like to use.
And to use the sd card I need to have with me all the time a sd card reader which is not the case.
Every android phone i used and have let me connect the device as a mass storage device. They even let me access the SDcard and internal memory using the micor USB port.
So I suppose that this is possible with lenovo thinkpad but I am missing were or how i can do it...
Is in the settings at the USB-Settings "Transfer files" enabled,
or can you choose it when connected ?
And at accounts&sync is "allow sync with pc" checked ?
mounting the TPT in unix is a bit more tricky. I had to do this last year, I only remember it took some extra work. But here's an experience getting it done in Ubuntu:

Good luck!
For Youtube, try out the one linked in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19412952&postcount=3
That's the tablet-optimized version 3 of the Youtube app. Installed it yesterday and works great on my TPT.
Youtube newer version?
Hello,
First time poster, but old follower of this great community site!
Q: May somebody provide the apk for Youtube (the latest one). The one linked above I think is an older version (3.0.15)
I mistakenly uninstalled the one that came with my TPT without backing it up (I know, stupid!). I think its version was 3.1.1.
I'm currently using a 16 Gb US version. Build number: A310_02_0039_0086_US
Thanks a lot!
Well, you could try downloading the latest US ROM from Lenovo - just unzip it and check the apps folder for the recent version of the Youtube app.
Thanks Yassin,
But I haven't found a full stock Rom. All I can find are the OTAs and it seems that the YouTube apn it's not included, or at least I haven't found it.
And the update at the Lenovo app store still gives me the parsing error when downloading...

[Q] adb driver for nookcolor on windows 7

Apologies if this is already posted somewhere. just point me to the link and I'll take a look, but everything I have tried so far has failed.
I have been trying to get adb working on my NookColor under Windows 7. I am running a rooted 1.4.2 stock image. I installed the sdk by following the guide at http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_USB_ADB, but when I get to step III.3.1, the device does not show up where the guide tells me it should. I gget a myNOOKcolor device under Portable Devices instead. I tried following the same procedure for this device, but when I get to step III.3.2.3, I get an error message saying "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems."
I was able to follow the same procedure to install the driver for my MyTouch 4g. It looks to me like the problem s that Windows identifies my Nook as a portable storage device, rather than an unidentified device type, like my MyTouch was. I've tried uninstalling the driver, but it just reinstalls itself when I unplug and plug the device back in.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I looked at your workaround and it did not help. There is no nook entry under "Other Devices" in the device manager. the only entry for my nook is the "myNOOKcolor" under portable devices. When I right click on that and go to details, there is no device id listed.
Is there any chance that I may need to revert to 1.4.1 in order for this to work?

With CM9, you have to be sure to have usb debugging turned on before the device will show up. That guide was written for an earlier version of the stock software. Is there anything like that in your stock software? Do you have to install nook tools to get at the setting? It's been a long time since I played with stock and the software has changed.
Edit: There is an alternate script listed in that referenced page you listed. Did you try that?

I have trtied all the troubleshooting steps in that page, if that's what you mean. Nothing has worked for me so far. I have tried disabling automount and usb debugging, to no avail.
I guess I should ask a new question. If I create a bootable CM7/CM9 sd card, will I be able to copy apk's to /system/app on my nook? That is really the only reason I need adb to work, so I can install non market apps.

Yes, but with difficulty. But you don't really want to install to /system, you want to install to /data (on emmc, which is the difficulty doing it from SD). You can use terminal emulator in CM7 to copy the files to emmc /data/apps. You first have to mount emmc /data. If you want to try that, I can help you.

Well something else actually occurred to me. Will I be able to copy apps to my sdcard (not the CM7 bootable, just a regular sd card), then copy them to /data/app using root explorer? If I can do that, there there's really no problem, I'll just have to deal with the fact that adb doesn't work.
If I can't do that, then yes, please help me do it using a bootable sd

I am using CM10 on my nook color after spending 8+ hours yesterday finally being able to get back to where I started. I can again see my nook and the card but it is now showing up under portable devices. I used to have them listed as drives. this is fine as I have access to the card after I click on the nook in File explorer. I would like it the previous set-up just because Calibre has my card and device flipped and its easy to confuse me. I learned that if I can label my nook f and the card g Calibre will think the first letter is the main drive.
My original reason for this post: I can not find where to disable the automount in CM10 can you tell me where you disabled it? and if anyone can wave their magic wand and get me back to where I can name my nook and card THANKS:fingers-crossed:

You need to activate USB Mass Storage in CM10. It uses MTP by default. Go to settings, storage, menu, USB computer connection and check off Mass Storage rather than MTP. Then they show up as drive letters instead of under portable devices. You may also have to activate in the notification area.
And I think in Windows you can control what the drive letters are. Go to manage computer and select disk management and you can change the drive letters.

THANK YOU, so very much it has been driving me crazy. I knew where that was to change it to mass storage but I just never guessed to hit menu. After I read your post I saw the tiny 3 dots in top right. I really should just wear my glasses
and Yes I have changed the letters in the past as you have noted. However it seems a mute point Calibre just released a new version that lets me correct that problem. However it's nice to have the mass storage issue fixed.
Thanks again

Asus TF300T and Ubuntu Sync

I have a quick question to everyone who has the TF300T and Linux. Have you been able to plug in the tablet directly in Linux (Ubuntu)and open the filesystem to transfer files? it seems that in windows I need to have that Asus Sync program, but i would rather not use a program. I would imagine it would be a plug and play situation.
I would appreciate to read how to go around that.
Thank you in advance.

I have windows and it is plug and play for me. I never downloaded the ASUS Sync program. I just plugged it in and it recognized the internal sdcard with no problems at all.
I'm on windows and i've never needed to use the asus sync program. I just connect my tablet to the computer and it pops up as a usb mass storage device.
Interesting. I am at work now and we are using Vista. I have it plugged in and on the device it says "Connected as a media device" and then nothing comes up. Also i have that Asus Sync icon in the notification area
I use Windows 7 Enterprise at home and it works for me
I don't have a issue with this at home.
Once I plug it in, a USB menu opens and verifies that it found a new device.
The issue you may be having is with in Vista itself.
I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise, and I can view all the files on my Asus, I don't even have Root yet. That whole .26 thing!
I just fired up a Ubuntu system at work to try to get around the issues with ADB on a Windows 7 64 bit system, so I can try to downgrade it to .17, root, load root keeper, then try the OTA update to .26. Have not quite got there yet though.
So far this has all been a complete pain on Windows, the ADB software comes to a screeching halt do to a Java issue, that no one can see to correct on my O.S.
Would be nice if some one just put out a 1 click Root app like I had on my DrodX!

i think i could depend on the drivers.
but dont expect an USB drive to appear as an HD or removable device, as it is MTP, you have to access the files via the DEVICE ICON that appears on the computer folder.
i dont know if its the same on vista. but as win 7 is Vista + it shouldn't be too different.

Ubuntu user here.
Yes I was/am able to get it connected and able to get files on it but not without some extra work.
I mostly followed the following site and changed some of the names he gave his phone into TF300.
(being a new user I am not able to post url links and am not able to post in de development site yet...damn)
Do a google search on: omg ubuntu android usb drive
and the first hit is the site.
After having done that, all it takes to have it seen as a drive is enter <android-connect> into a terminal. (and <android-disconnect> to shut off cleanly).
It's only seeing the sdcard, not / (hoped for an easy root access ).

[Q] Lost USB connection with CM10 Nightlies Updates

While my original NC is running quite well with the CM10 nightlies, I have lost my ability to use the USB cable as my file transfer source since leaving CM 7.2.
I now do all of my files transfers directly to the SD card by removing it and accessing it directly via my computer.
I get the following when the cable is connected: "USB device not recognized".
I have tried both Media Device and Mass Storage settings to no avail.
This was not an issue with CM 7.2.
Seems to be the only real issue I am experiencing since I was able, with forum help, to redo my inadvertently updated NetFlicks.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

First, don't call the ROM JZ054K, it is CM10. You confuse folks. The problem probably is you have USB debugging enabled. Go to settings, developer options and uncheck Android debugging.

Followed your suggestion and unchecked Android Debugging. Rebooted and then hooked up the USB/Recharge cable. Still have same result with the "USB device not recognized" being displayed by Win7/64 with both Media Device or Mass Storage being selected.
Any other paths to explore on this?
Utilized my ROM nomenclature based on "About tablet: Bulid Number" and will switch to CM10 if that is a confusing issue.

The device id and vendor id are different in the CM10 from CM7, you would need to edit the android_winusb.inf file to include them.

Any other paths to explore on this?
Utilized my ROM nomenclature based on "About tablet: Bulid Number" and will switch to CM10 if that is a confusing issue.

Are you sure it is still unchecked? Did you go back and look after rebooting. You should not have to reboot to turn it off. That device not recognized issue is it is looking for ADB drivers because the debugging box is checked.

Yes, went back and looked and it was still unchecked. Normally reboot when I make any changes but went back and redid your suggestion from scratch without rebooting with same result.

The only thing I can think of is to go device manager in Windows and uninstall any devices in portable devices, android phone and under USB controllers, any mass storage devices. Then unplug and replug it back in, assuring debugging is still of. You should now get messages that things are installing, hopefully automatically.

I'm having the same issue, was using the Dec 2 and now 3 nightly. when I get time tonight I will roll back to Dec 1 since I know it was working there. Win7/Win8 here fyi
Unsuccessful
Tried: "...and under USB controllers, any mass storage devices." This actually allowed WE to show "Nook Color" but when I clicked on it, there was nothing there. The unit did temporarily display a USB connection at that time also.
Again, this was not an issue under CM7.2.
Thanks for your ongoing assist!
Update: Okay tried every conceivable way of deleting some or all of USB drivers under DM and reinstalling. Even went into BIOS and turned down USB 3.0 to 2.0!
Again erratically got the Andoid USB screen temporarily a couple of times but could not maintain it.
Definitely getting a Windows "Code 43" error indicator.

If you are getting windows errors installing drivers you may want to look at this post. It is for the HD+ and trying to get ADB working, but there is some interesting stuff there about unsigned windows drivers that may apply to you.

Ongoing!
Will do!
It was very frustrating seeing the Android USB screen fleetingly appear several times and not be able to nail it down. I even got the WE screens for both drives briefly at one point!
Any idea as to why the issue exists with CM10 and not CM7.2?

Followup
Went there (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34954992) ...did that. Did not work at first, but it did work (somewhat) after I went back in and deleted the three drivers. I was then able to connect and utlilize WE to probe and adjust both emmc and sdcard. Calibre recognized that it was connected but I could not transfer anything directly from it to the NC.
Thanks for all of the help with this. Since I am probably around eight weeks from purchasing my HD+, I will just use the SD card to manually transfer files.
Interesting issue nonetheless!

I plugged my nook into a couple different computers and it was like the computer didnt even recognize something was plugged into the computer, though it charged the nook fine.
Had same problem, I went to settings - storage - then the menu box top right (three dots) then choose USB computer connections.. For the most of the time I just leave mine on Mass Storage -- On the second - I just leave the stock file manager and install any others I use - stock is not a lot of overhead for me to bother removing...
