Hello, while I´m using the diamond as usb-drive it stops working and when i check the memory status says the storage card is not installed?¿?¿ is this a faulty unit?¿?¿? if so, it will be my 2nd faulty one
thanks

This is normal. When you connected to the PC using USB mode the internal storage is disabled for the phone.

[Q] Help please - Windows detects galaxy internal sd card as an empty/unusable drive

Hi all
I rooted my phone today. I then installed clockworkmod and saved a stock backup. Following that, I successfully enabled 3 button recovery.
My problem appeared either after rooting or after clockworkmod. The problem was there prior to enabling 3 button recovery. I suspect it was clockworkmod that caused the problem.
Anyway, when I connect the phone to the computer the 16gb internal sd card & 2gb phone storage appear as removable drives in 'my computer'. However, double clicking on the drives gives the message 'no disk in the drive, please insert one'. Windows can't read the usable file space, browse or even format the drives.
However, I can browse the internal sd card fine using any android file manager.
Also, I can use adb to push/pull files.
What is going on?
I need to know quite quickly what to do. I initiated a phone repair with my carrier due to the mtp crash bug, so they are expecting it to be returned pronto. If the phone is stuffed, I'll send it back. If this can be fixed, I'll keep it since I managed to get the three button recovery working.
Also, I think there's a boot rom or something to do with clockworkmod still installed? How do I get rid of that if I'm sending the phone back. I know how to unroot.
Edit: I just found an external sd card to test. I formatted it in windows by using a sd card reader, then when I plugged it into the phone and tried it as a mass storage device windows didnt like it. Putting it back into the card reader one last time and windows recognised it. Makes no sense....
Edit2: In kies mode, kies can access it. And also it adds a 'galaxy s' to my computer where the internal sd card actually works... now I'm even more confused!

Have you tryed formatting your internal Sd or useing recovery 2e and factory resetting your phone?

I've tried formatting it and reset via settings->privacy->factory reset data.
Is 3 button recovery any different to the above type of reset? What will it roll the system back to?
(The recovery image I made in rom manager will have the same problem. I dont currently have an update.zip on my sd card due to formatting it, but I can get one on there using adb if I need to.)

Is your usb debugging on by chance? If so, turn it off ans reconnect the phone to the pc.
Mine does this when usb debugging is on and im on a stock eclair rom... Hope it helps...

That thought occurred to me too. Definately off. Ive checked it many many times now
When I first used adb, I simply pulled the plug out. I couldn't see any 'quit debug' command. There are start/kill server commands, they dont seem appropriate. Doesnt look like I should have had to do anything other than just pull the cable out.

Update:
I think that the update.zip's applied to my phone have changed some software to an earlier version that what my unit was shipped with.
When I first got the phone, I just plugged it into the pc and selected 'mass storage' on the phone. The drives then appeared (and worked) in windows.
Now, I have to click mass storage. That on its own isnt enough. But if I pull-down the tray menu at the top of the screen, there is another option to click (something along the lines of 'select this to transfer files between your phone and pc'). If I click that, it works.
There are some slight differences still:
1) I could swear that my phone originally allowed access to the 2gb phone internal memory (I never tried reading/writing to it, but I'm convinced windows displayed a 2gb drive).
2) I used to get the "xx/13.4gb free" under the drive letter in 'my computer', which I now only get in the status bar at the bottom of windows file explorer.
QUESTION
Does everybody else have to click "mass storage mode" AND pull down the task bar and click "transfer files" to get the internal sd to work as mass storage in windows?
Or do they just have to click "mass storage mode" and that's all?
Thanks

I always had to pull down the menu and manually mount the sd card when using mass storage.

Definately wasnt the case on my phone (bought mid october, so its quite new) because I got my music on there via mass storage twice before 'hacking' it. I couldn't have done that without knowing about the extra buttons to press. It's good to know that it's just a side effect of the update.zips I've applied, and that I get to keep the phone
Cheers

[Q] MTP mode ENABLE/DISABLE

Hi,
I have just upgraded to 4.3 and when plugging USB to PC, a new status icon appears MTP mode enabled. I was very happy with that because I have accidentally deleted some of my photos, and as far as I know under MTP mode there is no way to recover deleted files if You are not rooted. I have tried all my best to find out how to use this new feature to disable MTP but without any success. Do You have any idea how can I do it? Or any way to recover deleted files under MTP
Many thanks in advance:

That's because you're missing the correct HTC One USB drivers. Otherwise, instead of being limited to the camera memory, you would see the HTC One displayed as type "Portable Device" and if you go in there, you'll see "Internal Storage" which will give you access to everything on your SD card, including pictures. Then, you can use a data recovery software, like GetDataBack to try and recover your deleted pictures.

Hi,
Thank You for Your quick reply. I have already tried that, I can access the internal memory (see attached picture), but it has no drive letter as You can see. If a run get data back, the HTC ONE internal storage is not on the list I can select from( see picture getdata). What I am doing wrong?

Actually, forget about GetDataBack or other data recovery software. Have a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705

[Q] Computer only recongnises phone under MTP mode

I am currently using CyanogenMod 11.0 20140420 by Maclaw, but this has been going on since I started using the custom ROMs. Any time I try to use my phone in Mass Storage mode, my computer will not read the device, but in MTP mode, it reads the storage, but everything doesn't show up properly. Some files on the external SD card won't show up at all unless I use my microsd card reader and put it in there. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

No one? It's kind of annoying that Mass Storage mode doesn't work

Thank you, but I've tried that as well, couldn't even change the mode. I've also tried "USB mode switch for SGS1 on CM" (can't post links because I'm under 10 post) but when I switched to mass storage, my computer wouldn't recognize the phone.

Can Window 7 open and edit files on the cards of Huawei P9.

When I connect (USB cable) my new Huawey P9 to a Laptop (Win7) Windows recognize it as a new drive, but can not open the files on Cards. With my old Samsung Galaxy this was possible, and easy and comfortable. For example easy to copy MP3 files from laptop to card, and listening them on phone.
Is that possible with Huawey P9?

Did you tap "files" from pull-down menu, or it's still "charge only"?

Yes, I did it. And unlocking of the phone's screen also.

I believe that you have drivers on PC and/or HiSuite?

Yes, I have drivers and HiSuite also. But still I can access the SD card of the Phone from my Laptop, but accessible from Phone of curse. Is that possible that the problem is that the SD card is a Samsung type? With Samsung Galaxy N700 the access was rather simple with USB connection (fast), and the card was readable a writable too by Windows.
To be clear: how to access (simplest, fastest way) the SDcard of a mobile from a WIN-Laptop?

I understand you...
I have no problems at all... Lucky me
I know just one more thing you can try - transfer all data from SDcard to PC - use card reader, or transfer to internal memory, if you have space, then format SDcard from recovery or withing phone settings. Might help... :fingers-crossed:

I did it in the end! The way: Taping seven times at the Build number enables the developer mode. Than:
1 Enabling error-checking on USB
2 Enabling application checking on USB
3 USB configuration: MTP
Now it works as I prefer.
I had the intention of formatting as you suggested, but is seems that this is the way needed.
Thanks for advices!
