[Q] "System UI has stopped" when try to connect in Mass Storage Mode (Stock LPY)
I have my GNote with stock ICS LPY ROM and CF-Root for LPY and 15 Toogles running.
I have no issues copying files back and forth connecting my device in MTU mode. But when I try to connect my device in Mass storage mode I have some strange behavior:
Enable USB Mass storage in Settings> Wireless and Network > USB Utilities
Plug the device on
I see a blank screen with "Set time" lengend in header
The phone becomes irresponsive for a while, then shows the message "Unfortunately, system ui has stopped"
My PC never detects the connected device.
I cannot see notification bar anymore. I need to restart
Tried to enable/disable USB debuggin mode. However, when enabled, the phone says "Turn USB debugging off to set USB connection. Tap OK to continue". Then, automatically disables USB debugging mode.
I also tried connecting in different ports, installed-uninstalled drivers, and also different PC's. Nothing worked.
Do you have any piece of advice to offer, for solving this issue?
Thanks a lot
Had a similar issue ....
Had to reinstall the ICS ROM via PC Odin ...
All the best .....
I'm kind of paranoid right now because the super brick bug. I guess if reinstalling is the only workaround, i will wait another couple of weeks
Anyone else is having the same issue?

Just for the record, it seems it was related to LPY. Now I am on LRG and I could connect without problems.
I'm not sure when this problem first appeared. For whatever reason, my phone doesn't show up at all when connected to either of my two PCs. It must have when I first rooted the phone (to load ChainSU) but I'm not sure if the problem is recent or occurred immediately thereafter.
USB debugging is disabled. When I plug my phone into a computer, it attempts to install the MTP Driver and fails. When I uninstall my device, it disappears and I'm unable to manually install the driver's I've downloaded from other threads. When I load into the Bootloader, my device is recognized by Fastboot.
I'm hesitant to factory reset as this will leave me unable to root if the problem persists, which is important to me as I can get rid of the yellow tint on this screen.
Any thoughts?

Are you definitely sure usb debugging is disabled? The phone should install as a portable device on your pc. Also ensure to enter your password onto your phone when connected otherwise the phone will not show up its contents.
Make sure for windows media player to be updated to the latest, for the windows mtp driver.

There are a few things you can try. Have you tried uninstalling the drivers completely then reinstalling from the toolkit? In the past, I've had issues where the phone wouldn't be accessible in some way on one computer but would be fine on another, so maybe try a different computer to try to narrow down the problem as to whether it's an issue with the phone or the computer? Also, this may sound a bit ridiculous, but simply switching USB cables and / or ports has fixed detection issues for me in the past as well--something to consider.

Remove any existing drivers (while phone is connected), do the same for other android devices if you have any, then reboot and install Universal Naked Drivers. Have always had success with this driver pack.

100% sure on both counts.
I have this same issue with my rooted nexus 4, I've tried 3 different computers and several cables and it never connects to the PC and only charges the phone. It doesn't even give me option to choose media files.
I've had this issue before, my Nexus/Computer was acting in complete stupidity. When connecting the phone to your computer you will see a notification saying "Connected as a media device" on your phone, just touch it, and change it to "Camera (PTP)". It might access the camera for you, but It actually accessed the storage for me.

Thats not the problem, it doesn't give any option. It doesn't show up on the computer at all and only charges. It's the same for every computer.

I'm thinking we've screwed something up with the phone's side of the MTP protocol - mine is totally independent of the cord/computer used. All the correct drivers installed.
Have you tried Factory Resetting? I'm really hoping this is a workable option.
If you have a recovery back up the current Rom and flash stock and see if it's working

if the phone is locked with a pin/password/pattern unlock it.
I had same problem on my pc yesterday. Even if the drivers installer showed up that installation was successful, somehow for a mtp mode system was using some other Microsoft driver. Correct one was only used in ptp mode. So when I connected n4 in mtp mode storage wasn't available, when I switched to ptp mode everything was fine. Turn on your usb debug, switch on mtp and connect. Go to device manager in system, find your nexus there and rmb on it and manually reinstall driver. After this my n4 is visible in system in mtp mode again.

The problem is that even if I switch between MTP and PTP it still does nothing, I have tried multiple cables, computers and have reflashed the ROM and wiped the device but it still does not connect with the PC. This is frustrating.

Is yours able to connect during Bootloader/Recovery? Fastboot/ADB have no trouble recognizing my device.
It's really odd that if these things work, meaning your USB connection is fine, replacing the all of software fixed nothing... unless MTP occurs at a much lower level of the OS (maybe kernel is corrupted?)
I've got a similar problem that others have posted - PCs not detecting my N4. I got it last Friday (2/1) from Google and after the registering process and updating to 4.2.1, I connected it to my Win7 laptop and it showed on the PC as a drive. But since I couldn't copy/paste Office docs to that drive and had to do that through Dropbox, I didn't bother trying to reconnect until Monday, at which time the PC didn't detect it. Neither will one other Win7 nor two XP (both with WMP10) PCs. Have tried multiple cables, all of which work with other Android devices (pre 3.0). I've seen several suggestions on this and other threads, but one major issue I'm having is that some of the fixes require enabling USB Debugging. For the life of me I can't find that option in the N4's Settings. Unlike my other phones, there is no Applications subcategory under Settings on my N4 (4.2.1, Build JOP40D). Can anyone help me find that option? TIA.
Edit - Found answer. Click on Build in About Phone setting 7 times. That activated Developer options. Now to try the fixes which require USB Debugging mode turned on.
Hi
my phone is running blisspop , cmw touch is installed . when i try to connect my phone to my PC , error message saying USB device not recognized , and saying device is malfunctioned.
i tried everything.
tried my phone with my friends laptop
changed usb cable
tried same usb with my friends G2 which is working fine. so this is not issue with USB cable.
so i tried to flash kdz to get rid of problem, i entered my phone "Download mode" my pc still displaying same error message.
is it hardware related issue?
It could be a hardware problem. I'm going through a similar case (but it's not a hardware issue though). By default you shold turn off the phone, connect the usb to the PC (not the phone) and then Hold Vol+ and Power, Until you see it entered download mode, THEN you plug the USB port to the phone.
install driver
Guys could anyone help me?
My phone is Samsung A8 variant A800i non-rooted and already 6.0.1.
Eversince I upgraded to MM thru ODIN I am encountering an error in my OTG as in it won't read any disk... the only resort to make the otg work again is to reflash my phone. However during the most recent otg failure, a "USBsettings has stopped" was shown. I factory reset my phone but still this notification appears everytime I start my phone. So when I decided to reflash my phone, I was shocked that my laptop only charges my phone. It can't even detect my files thru mtp connection.
I tried the following and my laptop still can't detect my phone:
1. At the Developers Option I tried to switch the USB Configuration from MTP to Charging to MTP and various other switching, while connected and unconnected to laptop.
2. Dialled *#0808# to reset USBsettings but I am only getting "USBsettings" has stopped.
3. I reinstalled the USBsettings.apk from the system folder (via total commander).
4. I have installed USBsettings.apk taken from another phone.
By the way before I tried the above methods I have already eliminated the cable and pc problems since using the same cable and laptop, I can connect my other samsung phone thru mtp and is detected by odin. I have also tried various other desktop on Windows 7 and 10 but still the same problem: these only charges my phone.
Moreover, there is no abnormality in my charging time eversince this happened.
Hope someone could help me make this work again.
Thank You.
So I have this strange issue, when i connect my phone windows says "Usb device not recognized" and my phone is just charging without any notification for file transfer option. even tried usb debugging no results. When connected in fastboot mode windows doesnt even show usb device not recognized. no action in windows. I have tried almost all basic fixes and also have replaced the entire charging board. The bootloader is locked.... and i wanted to mod the phone but unfortunately it doesnt connect to pc.
