I have a really weird problem:
Everytime I try to transfer files to my G2, in the middle of the process it stops, then it gets stuck, and if I cancel it - I can't view My Computer, it keeps loading and loading and nothing shows up, until I unplug the device, then My Computer returns to usual. It happens EVERYTIME! I can't transfer music or photos.. please help.
Nevermind, it was a problem in the Paranoid rom.

In general my phone works great, but I have been having some issues with it directly after startup or syncing it with my computer.
Immediately after startup and when on the home screen, it tries to recognize the sdcard, but fails, and then proceeds to open a bunch of apps. I then to kill the apps with the app killer. Eventually when I open an app or just use an everyday function of the phone, it crashes and becomes unresponsive. Or when it goes to sleep, it won't wake up. I then have to pull the battery, and on startup the same thing happens. Takes a few pulls before it actually recognizes the sd card and starts up correctly.
For the past few days, i haven't even shut the phone off. Let me know if anyone else is expreriencing this or has some advice.
Ok so i have CM7 RC1, and everytime i plug in the usb and try to connect it, like to put music on it and transfer files. It restarts my phone and boots up again. it never ever connects.
Does anybody have a similar problem? or does anybody know a possible solution?
thanks
Is it only when you tell it to connect to pc, or whenever you plug it in to usb?

Only when i connect it to PC, it shows the USB connected screen and has the button that says "Turn on USB Storage" when i click that button it starts loading then reboots
I would start by doing a full wipe and reflash. I haven't seen anyone else mention this issue before.
Actually, a miracle happened today. It just started working now. lol. it didnt work earlier but Thanks anyway. but i have another question. everytime i download a file on the normal android browser it comes up unsuccessful constantly. I download stuff multiple times just to make it go through.
Whats up with that?
It says its downloading, gets to 100% and then says Download unsuccessful.
Is your sd card almost full?
Wow im dumb lol, thanks i didnt even think about that. thanks man appreciate the help.
anytime. Thats what we're here for.
i have 2 problems with media go:
1) once i connect the phone, it gets stuck 'generating thumbnails'. i have 55 pics and it always gets stuck after a few files. anywhere at 12/55 to 40/55. I can never get it to finish generating.
2) i have some iphone videos that I want to transfer to the phone. i was able to add them easily to the library and when i ask it to transfer to phone, the step goes to 94% but never completes. the cpu usage of my PC indicates that it finished transcoding but never finishes copying.
I even tried copying in USB transfer mode, but that also never completes. Tried swaping out the USB cable as well but that did nothing.

Connect it in the Mass Storage Mode, pull the status bar and mount the SD Card. Go to My Computer (or whatever it's called ); copy the video using right click or shortcut from original source and navigate to the whichever directory you want in your SD Card to copy the video and paste it. Done .
There is one more way if you want to use the media-go.
Before connecting it to the computer, go to settings and storage and unmount the sd card.
Click on the notification of safe to remove the card.
Now mount your card and after a few seconds connect it to your computer and open media-go
Wait for sometime till it finishes the generating of thumbnails else your transfers get stuck arround 90%.
I did it and it worked for me. Check if it does for you too
When I try to copy large movie files onto the Fire, it crashes after a while. It becomes a black screen and when I manually reboot, it stays at a black screen. This happened on two different roms. Does anyone else have this? I found that transferring through TWRP is much faster and it does not cause crashes.
Are you using USB mass storage? It gets stuck with large files, it's better to use AirDroid or something similar to transfer everything via WiFi
Can't copy files via USB, just gets stuck on "Calculating the time required to copy"
I'm trying to back up my entire 20GB of data on my Note 4 before I wipe it and root it. I'd like to do that via USB because of how massive it is. But it's not letting me. I plug my phone into my PC, use the MTP connection method, and I can browse my phone just fine. I can even copy individual files just fine. But as soon as I try to copy a folder, or multiple folders, it gets stuck on "Calculating the time required to copy the files". Even if I only select two folders that only have a single text file each. A file copy that should happen near instantly, doesn't happen after hours.
I've googled the issue and it seems pretty rare - has anyone found a workaround for this? I've tried different USB cables, different USB ports, resetting the phone, resetting the PC, but nothing seems to work!
I ve got a similar problem while backing up my whole data. Often the transfer starts after letting em calculate for a while (>15 min).
Sometimes a phone restart fixes the issue for one try and in very rare cases i retry it the next day.
I dont know what is causing th problem. I also know that this is not a apprpriate workaround.
There's a pretty big size man. I think you should try to wait a little more longer.
If the problem perssist then you should try reinstalling your device driver or use a party software like MobileGO.
Give a try and reply back
No, it wasn't size. If I went into the Camera folder, selected 4GB worth of pictures, and hit ctrl-C, then hit ctrl-V on my harddrive, it copied just fine. Took a while to copy, but there was no "calculating the time required to copy these files" dialog at all.
But if I select two or more FOLDERS, even if the total file size of all folders is less than 1MB, it gets stuck on "calculating the time" dialog, and I waited about an hour and then gave up. I ended up just copying to a USB OTG thumb drive on my phone, and then copying off that thumb drive to my PC.
