[Q] Can't seem to mount my SGS on PC

Hi,
Sorry this a newb question.
I'm totally new to SGS but not new to Android (my experience is with a HTC Desire).
Well my problem today with my brand new SGS is that it doesn't mount on the PC: be it with or without an external SD Card, whenever I attempt to mount the SGS, nothing is going on the PC... the USB connection icon doesn't show in the notification tray in the PC (I'm on Win7). I don't get any error message from the SGS itself (it seems to be considering that the SD cards have been mounted on the PC...)
Do I need to install any specific Samsung/Kies drivers in order to see the SGS on my PC? If that is the case, well this is pretty annoying because at work I'm not allowed to install new drivers.
By contrast, my HTC Desire can be mounted to any PC without any specific drivers installed... so I'm wondering why the SGS would require such devices...

Write-Protected internal SD (Found problem)

Hi,
I'm using Darky's 5.5 Rom and after flashing the Advanced Voodoo 5 v1.1 Final final kernal. I can't change files on my internal SD, when I try to use mass storage and copy files, I get the error cannot copy due to "Write-protected".
I did a search and didn't get any hits
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
EDIT: Nevermind, its a known problem in Advanced Voodoo 5 v1.1 Final that the internal SD mounts as a cd drive.
Hi there, question you mentioned that the problem has been solved?
Can you point me into the right direction please?
Thanks.

Look on the first page of the Darky Gingerbread thread, there is a link to "Known problems" -- one of them is the SD card issue .. basically the int SD is being mounted with the wrong permissions. There is a zip to fix those permissions.
My problem was that since I couldn't even WRITE to my card, how the hell could I put the zip on my card ....
Two solutions:
a) Bluetooth transfer
b) Easier -- go to Market and install DropBox .. do the same on your PC , then you can swap files back and forth between phone and PC without connecting via USB.
hope this helps

[Q] Formatted sdcard

Hello friends! Today I did something really dumb on my i9000. I was about to flash a new rom and formatted the sd card.. Of course the files of the rom i was about to flash are gone and now when i try to mount usb storage to transfer the files again my computer doesn't recognize the phone.
The drivers were working before all this happened so i don't know how to fix this. I'm running devil touch recovery v6.0.2.7.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks for your help.
2 things you can do one is to use a program called recuva by pirifrom (Google it and Google a how to) to get the data back off the SD card assumming u have not over written it and u have a sdcard to USB converter.
The other is to uninstall the drivers from PC and install them from fresh there should be guilds here someware

Can't mount USB Storage (internal storage)

Hi All,
My device is Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N700 using Jelly Bean 4.1.2. (not rooted). Before I was using ICS.
My problem is that my USB storage (internal memory) is not recognized (0.00B/0.00B). My system storage and SD card is fine though. If I plug my phone to my PC it also can only recognizes the external SD Card. I tried to mount SD Card from settings > storage > USB Storage > mount SD card, but it just won't do anything.
I've googled and looked within forums and read something about the different path address: ICS (/sdcard) and JB (/sdcard0). Most of the people that encountered the similar problems were rooted. And I'm such a beginner couldn't understand the explanations. I've been trying to solve this problem for nearly a week. I couldn't use my camera, download images etc.
Can anyone help and try to explain the solutions for a noob like me? I really couldn't understand most of the talks about this similar topic.
Thanks
I had the same problem as you. I read somewhere that if you re-install ICS and then JB the problem is fixed. I never got around to try this because in the meantime and when trying to debug / fix it I ended up "bricking" my phone...
If you want to give it a try, you need the ADB drivers in your PC, ODIN and the appropriate ROMs that you can get from Sam mobile.

[Q] Can't mass storage after rooting/bootloader

Hey guys. I've been stuck for hours now trying to install Android Revolution HD Rom.
So here is what I've done.
- Unlock Bootloader (HTCDEV)
- S-OFF (revone)
- Super CID
- Installed CWM
I think I installed firmware as well. (not sure what it was, friend told me to install it).
now when I tried to copy ROM file to phone. Can't copy.
CWM can't mount SD card.
Can't use camera and when I try to access gallery it says PLEASE INSERT AN SD CARD
Storage setting - USB storage unavailable. Can't click Mount USB Storage. Phone storage - unavailable.
I have tried searching MTP driver. I don't know what to do from here...
and now when I tried to do adb shell. It says error: device not found.
Also my phone now has WIFI error. Doesn't turn on at all.
All I want is to be able to copy files to phone storage and flash new ROM. Hopefully this will fix all the problems I have.
Please help..
Thanks a lot

I'm thinking possibly the firmware version is for 4.2.2, but your ROM is 4.1.2, hence the problems. Anyone else with more knowledge can confirm this?

with jellybean you dont have mass storage your options are adb sideload a rom to your phone or get a otg cable and load one that way
