After update to 4.3.1 Internal storage is messed up - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Not sure if others have had this issue yet, but its been driving me nuts for three days now.
Basically, I done a fresh flash to latest JB 4.3.1. now I having issues with transfering files via wifi or USB.
Its like its not mounting correctly or updating folders correctly.
If I try and transfer via usb, it will transfer one or two files then give error saying device is not present or some other stupid error.
If I try the same via wifi, it gives IO errors.
If I do anything on the tablet itself, it works fine. I can download games and stuff from store and it all works perfect.
This is why I didn't notice it until I spent 6 hours resetting it up and came to installing my emulator files.
I have tried different drivers, but nothing helps. This happens on complete stock or custom kernel.
Never had these issues with 4.2.2.

The current version is 4.3. The latest small update of about 2Mb keeps the version also at 4.3, but the Build number changes to JWR66Y. I had previously updated to 4.3 and recently took the small update to JWR66Y and my usb connection still works fine. If I use the original usb cable and use a rear usb port on my desktop, I have no problems with transferring files. Using a 3rd party cable or front usb port can result in the kinds of errors you're getting. I don't know why the wifi transfers are not working though.

Yep, JWR66Y is the version.
Been using the same ports and cables before update all was fine. USB transfer has never been great, but to play up this bad is crazy.
I disconnected usb and rebooted, then used WiFi and it seems to be working ok.
So it has to be something to do with it mounting when USB is connected. If usb is connected and I do WiFi, then I get all types of odd errors.
In recovery, ADB pull works perfect. I can pull and push as much data as I want through USB.

[Q] Kies Issues

I am having trouble connecting my i5801 to my pc using the USB cable.
Initially when i had a 2GB micro sdcard on the phone it used to give me trouble connecting to the PC very often and it used to take me atleast 6-7 tries to establish the connection.
However since i have put the 32GB micro sdcard it absolutely refuses to connect to Kies.
The phone has no issues connecting to Kies with an sdcard, it does so within seconds.
Kies is updated and installed properly with the latest version.
Both sdcards are functioning properly without any issues (well, apart from this atleast). Both are detected easily while using the memory card reader seperately.
I have tested the usb connection across 2 different computers with same issues.

i also had problems with my kies.. my phone could never be connected to kies... contacted samsung... they said me to update my windows vista... i thought it to be weird but decided to give it a try..
removed kies.. updated my vista... downloaded latest version of kies... installed.. since then there are no problems...
u too give a try... who says...!!!
I once had the same problem with an 8GB card.
Someone on this forum told me to delete the files with very long names... I did and Kies worked fine again. (I don't know the max lenght of the filenames...)
Did what you guys said, the problem still persists.
It works properly in the Mass Storage mode but not in the Kies mode.
Any more ideas?

It says on the link you provided that it does not support many devices. I am unable to find info on whether i5801 is supported or not. Are you using it? Is it supported?

like is the when install new kies,the new driver is not install,old driver not have unstall..
you need to unstall the samsung driver first ,then install new kies with new samsung driver
Kies works properly on my 5801.. I had to update my windows..i think the version of dotnet framework is important...
Sent from my GT-I5801 usin0g XDA App
Solved It!
After a few days of breaking my head over my phone finally managed to solve the problem.
Whenever i connect the usb to the phone there is an option that comes up in the notification bar asking me to "Mount" the phone. So before clicking on the connect via Samsung Kies option i had to scroll down down the notification bar, click on Mount and only after doing that, when i click on Samsung Kies, it connects easily. Doesn't work in the reverse order. And the mount option is not a popup just sits their silently in the notification bar.
Anyway thanx for all who tried to help. My question is why it doesn't mount it automatically?
Kies 2 is now out of beta!
The new Kies 2 is out. I have tried it and it works fine on Windows 7 32-bit. The SD card still needs to be unmounted, though. Here is the link:
http://www.samsunghub.com/2011/01/06/kies-2-moves-out-of-beta/
No driver issues! Looks very much like a step in the right direction.
So does it now detect i5800/1?
thaaaaank you

As far as I can tell, kies 2 does not have any driver problems. I have installed it on XP and Windows 7 32-bit. It uninstalls the old Kies and during installation, installs new drivers.

MTP File Transfer Problems

Hey guys anyone encounter when transferring files to the N10 via mtp that it transfer, but after a couple of minutes it will hang and pop up an error saying it lost communication with the device? The computer recognizes the N10 in mtp but after trying to transfer a file it would hang and that error will show. I mean this is not a huge problem for me since I just transfer my stuff wirelessly now which is a lot better, but I just wanted to see if anyone else has this problem and if there is a fix or is it on my end.

I only got my N10 today and while transferring music over from my laptop via mTP, I got the same problem you spoke of. I reconnected the cable, and copied the files over again without a hitch. Hope this isn't a persistent problem.
JB4.2.2
stock ROM and Kernel

Yeah I got my Nexus about a week ago and noticed this problem. I wonder if it has to do with the adb drivers. My Nexus 4 though transfer files like a champ through MTP so idk whats wrong with the N10. But like I stated using the wifi transfer is actually better for me anyways.
3 things can cause the errors. 1. Not using the supplies USB cable 2. Not using Nexus 10 driver on the PC. (Or having multiple USB drivers for different devices) 3. Using a USB 3.0 port.
Fixes:
Use the provided USB cable.
Grab the Universal USB/ADB drivers which can be found in this forum.
Don't use USB 3.0 ports.
These issues are not Nexus 10 specific. As far as USB 3 ports go backwards compatibility is hit and miss.
The cable might not be functioning properly or the file downloaded is corrupted. Try to redl the file. Sometimes rebooting the device helps too

I think its the usb/adb driver because I have like so many different devices that I installed through AIO toolkits from the past

CyanogenMod 11 can not transfer files from Laptop

I have a weird issue that I can not seem to fix. When I connect my N7 as a media I can not access files on my N7 on my laptop. When I change it to Camera I can tranfer some files. But about half way though I am getting a media crash and I can no longer transfer files unless I unplug and re-plug in my N7 again. Not sure what is causing the issue.
I am running CM11. I even format and clean install of CM to see if that would fix the issue. That did not.
Thanks for any help.

My PC doesn't recognize the phone at all

Hello!
I have a Nexus 4 (currently running the latest CM12 nightly) and I have been struggling with this issue for a long time. I needed to transfer some photos on my PC and when I connected my phone I found out that the PC doesn't recognize it at all - it doesn't appear in the Device manager and I don't even have Other devices and/or Android devices as categories in there too. This was about a few months ago when my PC was running Windows 8.1. Before this issue occured I had no problems connecting my phone to the same PC, running the same OS and even in the same port. And also I was running CM nightly builds back at that time too. I started using AirDroid, but it's a pain the butt to transfer masses of files such as photos from there, because it takes a huge amount of time. So basically I have tried the following with no result:
Turned on USB debugging
Tried all of the PC ports and even a USB hub
Tried a different USB cable
Installed Android SDK
Deleted every single USB driver and reinstalled it seperately
Now I am running Windows 10 64x on my PC and it might come as a surprise, but the phone still is not being recognized at all. Yesterday I tried to connect it to a friend's PC and it was actually recognized and I could access i, but I need it to work on my own PC. I will be truly grateful if you could help me resolve this issue and I apologize if there has ever been such a thread in here, but I just made my account Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

So, with Win 8.1, at one point, Microsoft via their Win updates pushed out an Acer ADB Device Driver which was complete sheet, and you had to roll it back to get it to work. I only vaguely recall the details, but sounds like you uninstalled them. Here is a thread on the issue: http://www.eightforums.com/drivers-...usb-issue-since-last-windows-8-1-updates.html
You might try downloading Wug's NRT, and going through the driver clean up and install steps and see if that fixes it. You may have some USB device which needs to be removed or failed. The Toolkit will walk you through the process. Also, remember on W10, you do not get an obvious pop-up (to the point I have questioned whether my device was detected), but if you click the Messages bubble in the bottom right of the screen and expand it, if it detects, it will tell you a device was detected.

ADB not working

Hi guys...
Yesterday my new PH-1 arrived and today I wanted to use ADB with the app "custom navigation bar". My problem is: i can`t get it to work... I´ve used adb several times with different phones, but with the PH-1 it can´t connect with my Windows 10 computer. Is it possible that I can´t get it to work because Ì´m using a different USB-C cable (took 3 different from Xiaomi another manufacturer)?
How do get it to work? Everytime I connect the phone with the computer, I get the message USB debugging is on and I use MTP to work, but the phone doesn`t show the RSA key fingerprint. Any suggestions?

Mines wouldn't connect using the usbc cable it came with I had to use a regular usb to usbc cable for it to work
See your device manager. To see if you are seeing "Mata". You have to download the google usb driver and update it from there
I have S8 from my previous computer but i need to re install the driver again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbAq6d2Du0U
You can also try this tuturial hope that it is working for you.
Try this > Download and install the essential usb driver > go to device manager and update the driver. Choose the option where you can change the source and select the driver in the list > go to the Essential Folder in Program Files and choose the file named "essentialadb.inf" for your pc. That should work
It's and old thread but if there is someone new to this...
My essential wouldnt work with the previous ADB i had installed that had worked fine with all my other devices.
I installed https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 and worked just fine. Make sure your device isnt connected as anything other than charging. The previous ADB i was using didnt acknowledge my device but on first try with Minimal i was prompted on my phone right away
I had the same problem when attempting to flash my ph-1, when trying to use the cable that came with the device. I used a standard USB-A to USB-C cable and everything worked just fine. I noticed on the 8.1 update notes for side loading that the team indicates that the cable that comes with the phone is "Primarily" designed for charging and not data transfer. So I'm guessing that it is of lower quality and doesn't handle the transfer speeds.

Hold either volume button while connecting cable from phone to pc, it will detect automatically. It may work.
