my DREAMY G1 can't ROOT!! weak SD & usb, bluetooth etc*&$^%$

Thanks for Looking, really desperate.
I can’t root this ^#%@ G1. Basically I can not get nesscarry rooting files flashed on my G1. I guess the short question is why does my G1 not accept files from my win7 box. Not through the preferred SD card method but, not through wifi, Bluetooth, ADB. Droid explorer, etc, etc. I’ve tried everything , every method …nill.
BUT, otherwise the phone works fine. Internet, phone, G1 crapware, etc. You can assume I’ve tried every thing I can find on the web. But if you want to read details go please do
BACKROUND:
After many, many attempts with every recipe and every set of ROMs around, I ‘ve narrowed it down to it not liking the taste of my SD cards…most of the time, For some reason I can do the initial rc29 downgrade but not much more.
1) Connecting with USB cable to PC. android shows up in “devices and printers” and so does its “removable disk (after mounted from phone). However, double clicking, rt click trying to for mat it just gives errors
2) Putting in SD card while up and running returns “unrecognizable media”
3) Now, I can format SD (yes fat 32) on the PC card reader, add files, whatever, put card in phone and turn it on , at least I don’t get an error, but I get no better acces to card.
I was just about to physically take the phone apart and see if there was some flotsam, corrosion, a piese of bacon making the sd connection physically corrupting the physical conectoion. THAN I remembered blue toothe behaves the same way and WI FII won’t connect at all. Seem that indicates something systremic…Radio??
Help Please?!?!

BTW:
ATEMPS AT REMIDIATION:
5 different New SD cards three, 4 gig, one 6 gig, one 2 gig different meg cards
SD reformats both quick and full adnaseum
4 different USB cords including brand new top of the line.
Re set to RC29 time and time again (remarkably it is apparently reading the flash drive

try going from a non windows 7 box? a friend with vista or family member?
that way you can tell if its windows 7 or not

Ekostons, Thanks for the reply,
I considered that, my son has an xp3 laptop. I think I will give it a try.
There were some gripes and moans about win'7 USB drivers, tried the fix, loading vista usb drivers... fat Chance, dunno what they were thinkn', didn't even resemble win7 drivers.
Hard to imagine why Josegh Smoh can't plug in his new g1 to a Win7 box and share his grand canyon memories with loved ones, but...Your advice makes scence as far as my "systemic prolem" theroy goes. Worth a whirl.
Thanks again, I have a little hope, at least another angle....

If you have Windows 7 Enterprise or higher and you have a processor that supports virtualization you may use Window 7's XP Mode and give that a shot. Its always good to have a spare comp or laptop running XP when you dabble in these things. If its not beyond your scope I've also seen a few tuts on how to get everything up and running on various *nix distros. Good luck!

Any tips on mounting this thing in win7 x64?

It seems like a craps shoot for me if windows will recognize it... hell sometimes my notification bar tells me usb is connected but doesn't give me options to turn it on or off... and this is all with USB set to mass storage... is there possibly something I am doing wrong?
Like sometimes it hooks up without any issues, other times windows sees it, but after a few minutes says its failed to install a MTP USB device, so I have tried pointing it at the location where the sammy USB drivers were installed but nothing... I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the drivers and manually switching them to other random things...
sometimes a reboot of the comp works it out, but other times it doesn't... I have the feeling I am just missing something...

Same here, except i'm on WinXp SP3. Get USB connected icon in notification bar of Vibrant, but windows task tray says failed to install device.
Looks like iffy drivers to me. Since samsung apps isn't available in the US yet, is there somewhere else we can get Kies?

The file you want for Windows 7 x64 is called GalaxyS_64.zip - worked perfect for me. Can't remember where I downloaded it from, though... uploading it now.
Edit: Here's the file you want.

That's the same thing I have tried installing a few dozen times before... still won't work.

There are multiple notifications you have to deal with on the phone. Took me a while to figure it out, too.
First you have to pick the mode you connect to W64 in (Mass Storage), then you actually have to mount the internal memory and card as drives for W64 to see them. This is all in the Notification bar on your phone. Just because you see the USB icon does NOT mean you are supposed to be connected.
THEN you get the "What do you want to do with this?" from Windows.
I got so tired of all the confirmations I just installed Dropbox. Now if I want a file on the phone I just drop it into my Phone Stuff directory and pick it up on my phone. No USB cable, no WiFi, just grab it and go.
If you're looking to xfer over a big batch of media files there is DoubleTwist and several other apps like it that will do so over WiFi.

Well I am installing dropbox because this is getting ridiculous... after a fresh flash it mounted once, then after that it wouldn't ever again. I tell it to mount to my computer and everything, but the computer just shows an icon that it is trying to install the drivers and never does... Come on samsung, stop being so proprietary...

Wow guys I didn't have any problems at all. USB Mass Storage worked the first time and it keeps working. Where I encounter problems is when I set it to USB Debugging then it doesn't get recognized.
ETA: I'm on Windows 7 x64 with all the current updates.

My windows is 32bit XP, but try this trick i've discovered, may be it will help. Say into voice dialer "Open SD card" -> check "Enable USB mass storage". Let's know how it works

Hey Degeneration, you can also install the Android SDK.
Unfortunately I can't post external links until I'm validated by a mod, but if you google "screenshot vibrant" (w/o the quotes) it should be the top link.
The domain is know your cell dot com and it has links to the Android SDK and the Java SE SDK in the instructions to take screenshots of your Vibrant.
I personally think you should try this because your phone may be defective. I'm running W7-64 Pro and didn't have to do anything to get the phone and the PC to see each other.

Wow I had no idea people were having this issue. I'm running Win 7 Ult. x64 and for me it was just plug in and go. When I was rooted on my G1 I had a similar issue but using USB Debug and the Android SDK fixed that. hope you get it figured out.

Yeah I'm on win7 and I installed the drivers and plugged in the phone and was good to go

I installed the drivers before ever plugging the phone in. I also have had SDK, adb, and Odin3 ready before plugging it in. When I first got it I immediateness set it to mass storage and didn't have a problem. Then when I started messing with it more I started having trouble every once in a while with it mounting, to the point that now it works every once in a while, mostly right after a fresh flash. Personally I think it's a combo of both the phone and the computer doing crap, but it's pretty lame. I don't even remember installing drivers for my G1, and definitely nothing else and I never had an issue with it. I don't see why samsung can't kiss a little butt or pay a little money to have windows recognize the phone and be able to install the drivers from the net. Now if the problem was just for people messing with their phones it would be one thing, then it's on me. But last night I was running stock again and it only worked the first time it connected, but I forgot to switch to mass media so I disconnected, switched, reconnected, and nothing. Tried switching back and same thing...
Constantly just keep getting told at best that windows failed to install an MTP (or whatever, I just closed the thing in the notification area and when I tried reconnecting the USB cable I got the phone just telling me USB is connected but giving no options) device failed to install...
bah... oh well

[q] Not compatible with windows 7?

I am currently running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. Whenever I try to mount the phone via SD on my PC, either 1 of 3 things happens: It detects the SD temporarily, then says the entire card has 0 bytes available, and 0 b total. 2. It recognizes the device normally, 14.7 gb available or whatnot, but whenever I try to drop an item on the SD, it stays in the "discovering...moving..." state permanently. 3. It doesn't detect the SD card at all.
I know I'm not the only one with this issue seeing as how I called sprint and they said it's going rampant with calls about the same issue. I've also seen it on other boards such as:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/sprint-epic-4g/31918-not-recognizing-epic-4g-usb-drive.html
Has anyone here had these issues and been able to fix it?If so..howso? I'm at wits end and about to downgrade back to Windows Vista..::Shudder::

Sounds similar to the issues that were happening with the captivate. Unless there are some 64 bit drivers you may be out of luck for now. I would try installing kies as that's what worked for me. Aldo just make sure you have the correct settings for USB and the SD.card.

I'm running Win 7 64-bit (Ultimaite on one, Premium on another) and have had no issues at all with mounting the Epic in USB mode.
You did format the microSD in the Epic, right?
A friend of mind formatted the card in his PC and had trouble with the Epic reocgnizing it properly. He then reformatted it in the Epic and has had zero issues since.
The only device I've had where the miniSD card doesn't show up when the phone is in USB mode is the Xbox 360 (which was disappointing).

Any link to kies by chance? ;/ I'll try that..will also try disabling driver signatures when I get home.

Same here. I have pluged in to 7 64bit Ult. 7 32bit Ult. And biz. Also Vista and XP. No problems. I've pluged it in on more to because I use it today to take movies around. I seem to be The Red Box in my family. Worked nice. Loving it! ;-)

Windows 7 Ult 64-Bit here as well. I can occasionally get it mounted and transfer files, but half way through the transfer it just craps out on me and usually kills explorer.exe.
Messed with drivers and still nothing. Everything is set up right.

I think the problem is the phone doesn't like some USB ports. It's fine on my laptop, but on my desktop PC, the front USB ports give me glitchy behavior (including 'driver problems') when doing mass storage. Plugged into the back and it was fine. Running 7 64-bit here too.
It's been rock solid since I did that.

For some reason I couldn't mount my phone as a drive until I turned off USB debugging. Settings -> applications -> development (i believe)
I have windows 7 64bit and it works every single time now. I've transferred tons of stuff. I never even formatted my card.

Works fine for me! windows 7 64 bit, i did have to unplug and plug in to another usb to get it working.

Mine has worked fine on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit without any problems at all. No switching ports out or anything of that nature. Maybe I'm just one of the lucky ones?

it wouldn't work on my macbook pro or my win7 64 bit (professional) desktop's front USB ports. However when i tried the back ports it worked fine. Go figure.

New Windows drivers from Samsung
I suggest that Windows 7 users install the latest driver from Samsung. There is a new version dated Sept. 1.

It has been working fine for me since day one on my laptop and home pc. Both are running Win 7 Ult x64.
I would suggest updating your Samsung USB drivers if you're having an issue though.

There is new set of USB drivers dated Sept. 1, 2010 that works fine. I just downloaded the drivers and ran the installation program before I plugged in the Epic. When the Epic was plugged in, Win 7 64-bit installed the hardware and I had full access to the SD card. In addition, the USB plug was not on the back of the PC but was on the front of the computer case using a cable to a USB motherboard header.
As usual the problem comes down to having the right driver.

[Q] Any way to get USB Mass Storage instead of MTP?

Not entirely sure what kind of process might be needed, but is it at all possible to use the older method of transferring files between a computer to an Android device (USB Mass Storage) instead of MTP?
MTP (in my experience) is... not ideal in most cases. File transfers are seemingly slower, can only do one thing at a time (I think if your transferring a file, you can't even browse other folders on the MTP device), and sometimes file transfers just get stuck for no reason. Was trying to copy over a few PDF's to my N10 and it seems to just hang randomly, had to reboot the device 4 times already (twice to just create and rename a folder).

what about the option in settings -> storage -> and tap the menu button on the top right and select USB Computer connection?

I had the same problem at first, but I realized my USB ports on the front end of my PC arent USB 2.0, so I plugged it into the back, and works like a charm. Just a thought.

I already did that and tried both options (MTP & PTP), but the N10 does not show up on my computer at all in either case, with or without USB debugging. I have had no such problems with my other android devices (all still running gingerbread, in case that matters).
My N10 is rooted and my computer runs xubuntu 12.04; I don't have a window box to test... Any suggestions? Thanks!

Unfortunately the answer is no.
There was a long discussion on the Galaxy Nexus forums about it a while back.
I also wish for a usb mass storage option for compatibility with radios for playing music. They don't read mtp/ptp for any generic one I've come across.

Hmm, but what's the main thing stopping this from being possible? I thought I heard of a few JB devices that were able to get USB Mass Storage (LG Optimus G I think has a method, or whatever the phone is that has similar parts to a Nexus 4), and a Galaxy Tab I used to have had Mass Storage in ICS.

Mass storage is possible when the sdcard volume is actually a separate disk. On the Nexus 10 this is an "emulated" sdcard and cannot use USB mass storage safely because that protocol gives exclusive control to PC.
The easiest solution is to use one of the many wireless transfer apps like AirDroid.
Another option for Linux users if you really want a wired transfer is to use adbfs. This is a FUSE wrapper around the usb android debug protocol.
https://github.com/spion/adbfs-rootless
adbfs would give you seamless mounting just like USB Mass Storage.
Another solution, though not a seamless mount, is QtADB: http://qtadb.wordpress.com/
This is another wrapper around the usb android debug protocol.

Oh my god, thank you for the AirDroid recommendation. Holy crap is this program useful with my new nexus 4.

dear espionage,
i just wanted to share this with you in case it would be helpful. in fact, you might even have more technical know-how to find out how i accidentally managed this useful fix. first, the reason i was looking for this MTP to USB storage was my habit of synchronizing my thumb-drive to my desktop using any free synching software. this of course, can be only be done when the storage device is recognized as a DRIVE. unfortunately, i believe with the updating of the OS to 4.1 onwards, the USB storage option has been removed, and now only access to MTP is possible. the bad side to this is that one's device is recognized as a portable media device and this means i can no longer synch like i did before the contents of the SD card to my desktop.
second, i found the solution accidentally by installing MultiMount-SD v.2.5 into my Sony Xperia V (LT25i). accidentally i say, because when i clicked on it for the first time, it wouldn't work. it showed a help tip saying that i should trying enabling what it called an MTP fix provided by the program. i did this, restarted the program and guess what happened. there occurred a looping sequence (i guess unending) device recognition-mount and unmount (the PC sounded this off many times), since there was no end to it, i decided to UNINSTALL the program even while the recognition loop was going on. in the meantime one could see a drive appearing in the EXPLORER with a (?), then it would appear with an assigned drive letter, then finally disappear, and so on.
i successfully uninstalled the MultiMount apk, and surprisingly even with the message that the device wasn't properly recognized or installed, i could now connect my Xperia and it mounts as a USB storage device and no longer MTP. to test this 'accident', i tried connecting it to my desktop, running Windows 7, and it worked without any hitches! I don't really mind losing the MTP option, sides it's very limited in its connectivity with the PC. Another bonus, is despite this, i can still communicate with my device through the MyPhoneExplorer program that allows one to send text messages and other stuff. This was one wonderful accident.
oh, one last thing, even with rebooting my phone, the setup seems to have become a 'permanent fix'. now, when the device is connected one sees in the activated portions in the top menu saying: USB Storage - SD card connected to PC. This was never there before... And i wonder what MultiMountSD must have left permanently to allow my Xperia V to now connect as USB storage. Yahoo!!!
i hope though, you could see what the technical side of this accident is, so that somehow something more stable could be done or programmed without having to go through the 'accidental' procedure i have detailed above.
ciao,

Thanks SmokinCharger! I guess it's quite clear that attempts to allow certain devices to be read in USB Storage mode is a hardware configuration. If your device isn't designed for it, then it won't be able to do this. It's like wanting your volkswagen to have a 6th gear... thus, what was posted previously is true:

*I also would like to apologize what i've posted earlier regarding my accidental discovery with Multi-Mount SD. What the app actually did was to access a feature in my device (rooted Xperia V LT125i) which i wasn't aware of. All the time, my device was actually configured to have both MTP and USB Storage.:silly:
So for such devices that are hardware configured only to be MTP or PTP, the only 'solution' or 'alternative' would be to "ROOT" them and set them up with OTG (On the Go) USB access. This may have some hitches, but i've been using this quite a lot. Sometimes though, a RESET is required so that explorer applications would function normally.
Thanks again. I guess this will be all for now in our attempts to reconfigure something that is hardware defined in certain devices.

You're welcome. Chainfire is a great and well known developer that has development many great apps including Stickmount. Look it up in Play especially the Pro version, which is "The price is aimed at being approximately one beer at the bar ". It works with mounting the UBS OTG. The Pro will automatically mount and unmount.

[Q] USB connection issues

Want to start this by saying I'm pretty sure this is a pc issue rather than phone issue, I've had similar problems with every android I've owned. I installed drivers through the Nexus 4 toolkit and the tutorial by thesmokingandroid, my PC doesn't even acknowledge the phone. I get the beep when it connects and disconnects but the phone doesn't show up anywhere like my computer or device manager at all. Like I said my older phones would connect most of the time but almost always randomly disconnect/connect. I feel like it's likely a driver thing, never had problems with my iPhones or other things like mouse or keyboard. Is there a way other than a clean windows install to just clean my pc of any android related things like SDK or drivers? Also it's a custom built pc with 5 ports running win7, no ports will work. I added an in tower sd hub and feel like the problems might have started around then but I'm not sure on that. Any suggestions would be nice, not being able to connect my phone is an issue with no removable memory...
edit: Wanted to add that sometimes when I only have my mouse, keyboard, and Xbox controller connected I get those little connect/disconnect beeps at random and the bubble that says this device can perform faster. I'm pretty sure my ports are 2.0 too but I'm not sure how to check that.

I having the same problem. When I'm in fastboot mode my pc doesn't show my phone but when my phone is powered on it shows up on my pc. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Anyone? I'm ready to try reinstalling Windows but would really like to know if there's something a less time consuming I could try first. I can't root or anything so I'm going to have to try something soon.

Same thing happens to me a couple days ago.
My laptop recognized the phones, but it showed nowhere in Device Manager. Adb could see my phone, but as soon as I went to bootloader, my laptop said An USB port is unrecognized
SOLUTION: I use Nexus Root Tool Kit and Google NExus 4 Tool Kit to REMOVE the nexus 4 driver, everything related to nexus 4 is removed. I only used these tools to uninstall the driver, not to install them.
Then I turned off the Windows 7's Automatic Update Driver by Window Update (or some similar names). This is important, because the driver that windows install autimatically doesn't covery the Bootloader Driver. I dont remember how exactly I turned the Automatical Diver Update off. Maybe when the popup "unrecognized USB" appear, I pressed it and there was an option to do that. Or you can search google.
A link to turn the Windows 7 Automatic Driver Installation: http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/82054-turn-off-windows-7-automatic-driver-installation.html
Restart my computer after that. THen download driver from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 ONly the driver.
THen Install it from DEvice Manager by plugging my phone again.
Finish.

I had the same issue,here's the fix:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036400
In my case,there was no wpdmtp.inf file in windows/inf,hence device wasnt recognised.

I'll give that a shot when I get home thanks.
