Yes, slower than a normal card reader, but 10 times faster than ActiveStink.
But calculate the time it takes to power your phone down, remove the card, stick it in a normal card reader, transfer files as needed, put it back in the phone, power back up.
With Card Export, I click on an app button and plug into my pooter.

Some of us are even geeky enough to have the flash card bootable.
Mine loads BartPE, and has all of the Windows XP Source files on it, so I can now boot any system, perform maintenance on it using the BartPE image and utilities, and even reinstall Windows XP Pro from my phone.
I do IT work for a living.

Synssins... thats way to much information...
btw look up wm5torage... same thing as card export but freeware!

wm5torage won't work on a Kaiser/Tilt, the last time I checked.

Too much information, as in, irrelevant to the thread? Or too much information, as in "Whoah Nellie! You ARE a geek, and it blows my mind!"
In short, to answer the OP's initial question.
YES. You can use the HTC Kaiser/AT&T Tilt/Orange/anything else it is sold under, as a USB flash drive for a PC, by using a program that you install on the phone.
WM5Storage does not work for me. It will not load the card as usable. I ended up using CardExport, and paid for it. I love it.

thanks... sorry because i m new bie..

Code
The card export needs a code to funtion properly is that version cracked?

Card Export is payware. It is worth the money, for as often as I use it. No crack.
They just require that you have an Owner Name set on your device. The Owner Name has to match the name used to register it to receive a key.

Card export installs a universal usb driver that it installs to your device and utilizes. I use it and it works on every machine I've tried it on. It's a very good program and worth paying for.
wm5torage is similar software but does not include a driver... either you have it or you don't (hence it sometimes doesn't work)

ubuntu is smarter than me

i just got a new g1 and when i click on the device in ubuntu i put a checkmark by the device in the usb list but it immediately just disappears, am i missing something?
I dont remember doing anything special to get it to recognize my last g1, although towards the end of that g1's life id have to frequently restart ubuntu because id encounter the same problem...very, very, very frustrating, thanks

Hmm, I do sometimes have problems mounting the G1 is ubuntu, but its normally fixed be logging out and in or remount in the phone and mounting in ubuntu again. When this happens I see "Usb Device" in the computer are of nautilus, but that refuses to mount.

ok well then i suppose there arent any setting im supposed to configure when attempting to mount a new device, although it mounted the other g1 so i dont know if this would even count as a new device.
But at least i know its not the settings i need to be looking at...
its just so damn irritating that i plug in the device, it appears on the list of devices in the ubuntu usb icon, then i check the htc...box and i get the connecting sound immediately followed by the disconnecting sound...argh

Could explain what you mean by "check the box"? I just go to computer and mount it from there or places from the gnome panel and click to mount. You are using Nautilus right? Also it never says anything about HTC for me, just the label I gave to the fat32 volume :-S

Get ready to laugh, i dont know what nautilus is, care to elaborate?. I start up ubuntu, and on the bottom right there is a usb icon, and when i plug in a usb device it shows up there, so i click on the respective device, in this case the phone which shows up as 'htc device...' and then i mount from phone. if i just click (check) the device w/o mounting i can use terminal and what not but once i mount it i can see and change all of the partitions with gparted.

nautilous is the name for the explorer in ubuntu like Windows Explorer in Windows. I still dont get what you are trying to say. Are you saying you can mount it but it disapears or does it mount and you cant change or remove anything?

to much to ask?

i along with several other noobs would like to try the newest roms but,everything is lzx. through sd card i have reformatted and everything else one would need to do. is it to much to ask to get some .nbh files upload if it is too much work just let me know i will understand just want to try out all these new rom that are helping keep this wing alive...... p.s that cab. file fix for opera mobile has that worked for anyone? it didnt for me... thanks in advance

Okay, so what are you saying? You formatted your SD card and it doesn't work or something? Did you format it as FAT32 under Windows? Did you rename the file to HERAIMG.nbh? Did you press and hold the camera button? Im thinking that you didn't.

If you're trying to flash through sd, and it's not working, you either missed something or did something wrong, period.

LOL
I can;t take you seriously with the smoking obama

You Must Be HardSPL First! See Here
1. Download the ROM you want to Flash
2. Rename the _______.nbh to HERAIMG.nbh ( ____ being whatever it was named first )
3. Format your sd card in FAT32 ( can't be sdhc, smaller cards work better )
- you can format your sd with a card reader on your computer
- or you can find resco explorer and format it on your phone
- if either doesn't work skip this step and see what happens
4. Place the HERAIMG.nbh onto your hopefully reformatted sd card. ( keep it in the root directory don't put it in a folder)
5. Make sure your phone is off and your sd card is in
6. Press and hold the power button and while holding it press and hold the camera button
7. When asked to press a button press down on the volume strip.
8. you'll get a progress bar leave it alone until there's only a gradient screen ( around 5min) then restart.
If for some reason this doesn't work, start back at step one and try again.
If for some reason the second time doesn't work get a cheap sd card and try with that one.

What do you mean by get internet through activesync? Like still be able to connect to edge on your phone or do you mean internet sharing or something?

the internet pass through, where you connect to your computer with activesync and your phone shares the computers internet connection.

...at first i was a little confused, but i think i know what your saying
using the phones internet on your computer right?
if thats the case you want "internet sharing" you can get it somewheres here or thewingster.com
i use internet sharing on my comp from time to time, but tmobiles GPRS is just sooo slow, if you really need internet go for it

Yeah it's like dial-up slow, but it does work in a pinch. But if you're wanting to use your PC's internet connection for your phone, I couldn't find much. There's something like that for Symbian, but not really windows mobile.

I blame the SD card and the education system... SD card could not be hard spl worthy or something, try a different card I say 2 gb or less, SDHC cards don't work for some reason

Yeah definitely 2GB OR LESS, NOT SDHC. Everyone that puts up directions to flash seems to keep forgetting to note that part.

the only thing that i havent tried nor have i seen anything about is the step... to turn phone off, then hold power botton while pressing camera botton.i will try that.. thanks for the info i didnt mean to come off like a ass..my bad

hey guys i covered that in my steps give me some credit.
and about the passthrough. i have a dash and when you connect to the computer my dash uses my computers internet, im wondering why i can;t do that with my wing?

the thing is i have a 2g sd card now i have heard of the term "partioning" a portion of your sd card for flashing.does anyone have steps for it? thats what i might need and if that doesnt work i'll just wait for the next signed_ruu file through active sync.

You can try to partition your SD and have part of it FAT or NTFS and the other FAT32 for flashing purposes, but I would not recommend it. Just do this, connect your SD card to your PC some way, copy everything on it to your desktop, then format the card to FAT32 and install as normal. If you partition your card I do not know wether the bootloader of the phone is smart enough to search for a FAT32 partition or if it expects the entire sd:/ disk to be FAT32.

I've never tried partitioning. I always use a 2gb Kingston and format the entire card to FAT32, and I've never had any issues flashing. That is the method I recommend.

Xperia X8 USB Mass Storage Issue

I have strange issue that's driving me crazy when i need it. I am user of GingeDX (v030 shakira stock). Several days ago i updated the custom rom with the latest version (v030) and installed GAPPS. Yesterday i plugged my USB in my PC to add the fix for GalleryDX (which was bugged and hotfix was avalable in the topic). When i connected my phone with usb and then to my pc (on my phone it said its connected) but nothing was showing either on my desktop or in Computer. I'd also want to add that the same day - Sony PC Companion required some update and i did it.
Then i tried something else to use the usb connect via Sony PC Companion and it worked only to open the sd card so i can place the GalleryDX fix i was talking about above. I was thinking that it's some kainda bug that will be away when i restart my pc but not. Then i restarted my phone, nothing again. Then erased all data from my sd card but nothing again. My last option was to wipe data/reset to factory via ClockworkMod but nothing again....
So my problem is that when i plugin my usb to phone and pc nothing is showing but my phone is saying its connected to pc. Days before everything was okay.
I also want to add that i use Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium SP2 is someone is in need of that info.
I really need some help about that because it's anoying.
Thanks in advance

When you touch it the usb mass storage is activated..

The problem is not with the rom, but with ur usb port...there could be two options available, either dont have the drivers installed,(usb), or ur cable is malfunctioning...

His usb cable and port are fine, if they weren't he wouldn't be able to connect.
Wait some time if you hadn't, it may take a while.
If you have adb set on your computer run this command:
adb devices
If nothing shows up the problem are the drivers...
If that's not the case then try with another sd card and see if it works

You might have a virus in your PC. Try connecting your phone in another computer that has a good anti-virus installed.
Question: are you able to see the device in your PC but not the files? Or, nothing is showing?

@CtrlAltDelIrl Mate i'm really sorry about leaving only "ofc i did" but i was in a hurry and really had no time. Also i'm not here to argue i just wanted to tell you that i did. Thanks for your help and sorry if there is anything.
@stamatis Thank You for the "other SD Card" solution. I took my second SD Card from my phone's box and it worked. Then i attached my old sd card (that was not working so far) and it ALSO worked. I did it many times and now it's working...... quite strange i think that second card and fix that but it did. Awesome! Thank You.
@Everyone else - Thank you guys for the responce about my issue. Now everything is fine If i have any more questions i'll ask ahead.
PS. Yeah i know Vista. I hate it more that you imagine. I know how to install new one but i'm not into intalling everything all over again. I just installed new OS on my second PC so yeah.... its pain.

Does everyone agree that hooking up to pc sucks?

When I found out my new Razr I couldn't use the SD card as a mass storage device, I was disappointed. I thought oh well, I guess it'll only be a problem if I ever want to take or dump files to friends computers but since having to rely on Moto's own device connection ways I'm getting a bit annoyed. First of all, if you want to "Move" a folder from for example, the root folder of the SD card into another folder, it's as if it's copying it bit by bit and takes AGES even in my USB 3 port. USB Mass storage has always treated the SD card like anything else in windows and will just move in a millisecond, but not this Also, I noticed upon transferring a folder which had 98 files, only 90 showed up on the properties once it was on the sd card I like to make sure transfers happened ok by comparing file sizes in bytes so this obviously throws it way off.
Has anyone come up with an alternative solution I wonder?

An alternative is a simple card reader
I think there were some experiments to get mass storage back, but i don't now if they succeeded...
But the new MTP - technology is better for the android system, it doesn't have to unmount the sdcard. and pc and android can parallel access the sdcard.
gesendet von meinem Motorola RAZR i rooted+unlocked

I guess they are some good reasons alright and yeah, I might have to start carrying a card reader so

Personally I like MTP, it's much faster than USB connection, but still it would be great to be able to choose from two options. I've read somewhere that even Motorola had problems with creating USB drivers, so it will be miracle if we see that option on our phone.

Airdroid.
There, i solved all your problems.

Never heard of airdroid, will check it out, thanks
MTP seems a lot slower than USB to me? Just the fact you can't "move" like I described is enough

Ok airdroid seems cool, but it seems not to be working properly for me, I've managed to view my sms on web.airdroid.com and the phone details etc come up right, but the internal and SD storage are both showing as 5.13gb with 1.34gb free when my SD card is 32gb.
Also it's giving errors on trying to open photo/video/app folders.
Like the idea so if it can work it'd be great.

Agree
I agree, it sucks!
It´s so slow the cable connection, that it reminds me my old moto V360´s one. Unbelievable!

Works pretty well for me. Maybe you modified something?

Did you test it today? I saw great ratings for it this morning when I downloaded it first but then later today I checked back and the latest ratings were saying it wasn't working.
Didn't modify anything at all really, tried both with an account and without an account and same issues.

Hooking up Razr i to PC really sucks cause you always need to install drivers and Motorola application when you plug into a new PC (and remove they after, when PC is not yours). But I think wi-fi transfer sucks too cause it's slower. =(
When I need to transfer small files I use X-Plore app on Android. X-Plore can access shared folders on your network. It works like a charm!
When I need to transfer big files, I preffer to plug on USB. There's no other way...
