Hi,
when I connect my Android devices under w8 they appear as phone devices ffor me to browse, The issue with this is it hangs a lot and is very slow to browse. You used to be able to mount it as a standard USB device - how can you do that?

I see the ADB entry in Device Manager and the device is listed as HTC Dream. If I uninstall this and connect the phone it will mount and the drive will show up.
If I use Windows update to install the HTC software the phone will no longer show up...what's going on here?
For great justice!!!1
Ditto..Real problem here..
Just noticed this today. Two different computers with two different cords, no USB mount.
Helo all,
since two days I now own an Thinkpad Tablet and am happy so far. Only when ein plug it into my PC (Win7 64bit) via USB it is recognized but I still can't transfer files. When I open MyComputer in the Explorer on the PC I ca see the Tablet, click on it but then no files on the tablet show and I also cant transfer any. It then gives me an error: Device was disconnected or istn working properly.
Tried installin ADB Drivers form Lenovo, switching USB debugging off and on, no help.
When I plug it in on the tablet im prompted with the selection of just charging or MTP. If I choose MTP it makes the same Windows sound as if unplugged....
Any Ideas?
thanks

I am trying to connect my Nexus 7 to my PC in Mass storage mode. I unlocked and rooted my tablet and have stickmount installed. In the pull down notifications menu it only allows me to connect as MTP or PTP. When I plug it in and click 'mount' in stickmount, a little window pops up and says 'Active Mounts: None' I can't seem to get it to mount. Any suggestions? I thought it was possible to connect this way with a rooted device.

Try to install mtp porting kit from Microsoft... it worked for me...
My assumption has been that StickMount has no relevance to a USB connection to a PC and that StickMount is used to connect to devices that the GNex controls as a USB Host. I may be totally wrong but with an Android device connected to a PC I've only ever used the PC and never thought of controlling the connection from the Android end.
Hello,
First, I must say that I read many articles, tutorials and threads before, without any positive results so I decided to ask this question. I don't know why I cannot connect external device to my Nexus 7 3G (tilapia). Actually, my tablet's working on CyanogenMod 10.2 unofficial and is based on its kernel. It's even unable to detect device in recovery mode (I've flashed TWRP 2.6.1). I can add that I'm using otg-usb cable which has been included in my set of purchasing. I don't know is it important but my pendrive doesn't see to be ready to use while it's connected via cable because the micro diode is off wheres after connect to my computer it's always on (twinkle or shine). Of course I've installed StickMount app and others similar free for mounting devices and file explorers from Google Store. Additionally, Icon "Mount USB Storage" in Settings->Storage is constantly off (unable to touch). I'm waiting for your suggestions.
Thank you in advance for any replys.
EDIT.
I resolved it. The issue was responding to my cable. I've used the wrong one because I didn't know that it was from the other tablet than this one. I connected my device via new one and it's working perfectly now. Excuse for bothering you.
I have two issues with my MetroPCS LG K20 Plus and my Windows 10 computer.
The phone has debugging mode enabled, but is not rooted.
(1) I cannot see any Android files on Windows File Explorer via USB. The device shows up, but no folders. I also do not seem able to use any Android-to/from-PC apps that communicate across the USB cable.
(2) I am struggling to find a portable way to cast my phone screens to a Windows 10 PC. I have tried Bluetooth, but the related Android Settings options appear to be missing. I can pair to the PC successfully. The PC shows the Bluetooth connection as "Connected", but the phone shows "Connecting" for a while, and is then unconnected.
Can you suggest ways to enable this functionality?
I cannot install PC software to do it because I might be in an environment where I do not have access to the WiFi network, or am unable to install software or browser extensions or drivers on the PC. I cannot use WiFi for file access for the same reason. Cloud access from a public PC is a security risk.
It seems that LG (or perhaps MetroPCS) is deliberately trying to thwart casting and USB file access, and I cannot think of why they would do that.
I also have an issue with connecting this phone through usb. Windows 10. Says device can not be reconized. May have wrong lg usb driver version not sure. Needd it to read so that i can unlock the bootloader.
