Newbie with the Nexus - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am having issues, probably missing something silly.
I connect my phone via usb, there is nio option to mount card.
I installed the new drivers following the info provided here as below:
Getting Nexus One ADB/USB Mount working (Driver)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hit Windows Key + r
Type in devmgmt.msc
right click on nexus one
click update
update from location on computer.
select that folder.
---------------Notes-------------
Be sure to enable debugging on your phone via Settings>Applications>Devlopment>USB debugging.
Phone shows in my device manager as Android composite Adb interface.
In My computer it shows as Removable drive (N)
not sure where I am going wrong, when i pull down the screen from notificatio area all i get is "Turn Off USB Storage" & USB Debugging Connected.
Any help greatly appreciated

i didnt need to install anything. i just connected my nexus to my work laptop, it recognized a mass storage device, i pull down the shade and press "cclick to copy files". thats it.

I have installed via wifi Astro file manager, but it does not find any *.apk files i drag over to the memory card, so I can not install the apps I have currently sitting on my pc. I have no idea what folder I should drag them to, tried the root of removable drive(N) as well as the temp folder.

[SOLVED] Can't mound SD card from G1 to computer

I am unable to mount my SD card when it is in my G1 and connected to my computer. I used to be able to before I upgraded to Windows 7. I am using JacHero 2.7.1 with the latest USB drivers, fastboot and ADB both work. But when I connect my phone to my computer and choose to mount the card, nothing happens on my computer. In device manager, my G1 is still there under ADB Interface. However, the SD card is mounted as WPD File System Volume Driver with a little caution sign on the icon. When I view properties of the device, it says "The device cannot start. (Code 10)"
How can I get this to work? Its kinda annoying to have to turn off my phone, remove my fishbone case and go through all that just to put a picture on it.

You can always use adb push? Lol try uninstalling the usb storage devices and reinstalling them
well, the problem is USB Mass Storage doesn't even show up. And when I try to install newer drivers it says "Windows has concluded that your driver is up to date" and stuff like that. ADB push is a little slow for me lol
Uninstall whatever your SD Card is installed as, then restart your computer, replug in your phone and mount the SD Card and it should prompt that a new device was plugged in.

Just tried that, the moment I plugged it in, my computer automatically installed the driver, so still not working.

Ugh, I hate that... try manually updating drivers and see if you can get it to install the Mass Storage Device drivers from a list...
I tried that, there wasn't an option for USB Mass Storage, but there was one for SD Card in the pre-installed driver list, however when I selected that one I received an error. Just a note, that Android HTC Phone USB Device is listed under disk drives with no caution signs in the icon, however I am unable to get that one to work either. Could it possibly be Windows 7..?
AHAHAHHAHA YES I FIXED IT WOOO HOOOO!
Okay, so what I did was go into the development settings and UNcheck USB debugging. The moment I did that, my computer made the "new hardware sound" and then said "driver install successful" and when I clicked on it to see the driver, the driver was "USB Mass Storage Device". Now I can mount it WOOHOO!
Thanks you guys for all the help
edit:
With USB debugging reenabled, it stops working again, so I gotta turn it off everytime I wanna mount... ah well
That sucks, I have mine permanently on cuz I use ADB so much (Also using Windows 7 here) And everything detected perfectly. Well good job on finding a workaround.

Okay because of a great guy from a microsoft website forumboard I was able to fix this with the below fix.
Thank you (Patricio16)
If still doesnt work try this:
1. My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced System Settings. This takes you into the system properties like in XP. Go into Environment variables and create a new System varable called devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices (I don't think it's case sensitive). Set this to a value of 1.
2. Go into device manager. From the view menu, choose "show hidden devices". Because of the environment variable, you now see all devices not in use.
3. Uninstall any "Universal Serial Bus controllers" not in use (greyed out). Also I uninstalled any storage volumes, storage volume shadow copies, and disk drives also not in use. You should see your offending USB device in one of these areas.
4. STILL DIDNT WORK!! Then:
4.1 Make sure your cellphone detects and see the content of the card. Then, right click MY COMPUTER - Choose Disk Mngmt- Look for the storage device in trouble (you will see that it doesnt have an assigned letter yet) - Add a letter to it - Check and you'll see the drive. (Edit)rocxylemmon- remove the WPD by uninstalling it if it does not go away on it's own then recheck for any new devices and it will change to the drive letter you assigned it too.

USB Device not recognized

I've searched and tried everything I found but my phone just can't be read as a Mass Storage Device....which means I can't transfer any files.
When I plug the phone in the USB debugging icon shows up on the phone but the option to transfer files isn't there. And on the computer it says USB Device not recognized and it's listed as an Unknown Device.
What I've tried so far is uninstalling the driver completely and plugging the phone back in....some sort of software automatically installs itself whenever I do this. However it still doesn't fix the problem. Also, I've downloaded some drivers from the internet but when I try to "Install driver from specific location" and direct it to the folder, it says there was no updated drivers found.

USB Mount Problem after fully rooted.

I fully rooted my NC and installed a number of apps that work but now my NC wount mount to my computer as separate flash drives. How can i fix this problem? Did i do something wrong? Ill appreciate the help.
Funny, I just realized this happened on my NookColor as well - just got to the bottom of it though.
Somehow, my Windows box was recognizing the Android Composite ADB device twice, and this was somehow nuking the usb-storage mode. The fix was simple:
Make sure adb shell isn't running
Go into device manager, and uninstall both instances of "Android Composite ADB Interface" - I deleted the device drivers to be sure (Windows 7 option)
Unplug NookColor from USB
Plug it back in after a few seconds. Let Device manager do its thing. For me, it fails and gives me the 'Drivers not installed' caution symbol next to the "Nook" entry in the Device manager.
Rightclick on the Nook entry in Device Manager, then select 'update drivers.' Point it back at the original USB drivers that you used while rooting when prompted.
Wait for the system to do its thing, installing all the drivers - takes a good minute or so. Drives appear in your Explorer
(I had to unplug and replug before the computer would actually let me access CONTENT on the Nook and the SDcard - your experience may vary.)
Or you could just use adb to push/pull files.
You could - but I find it easier when my media directory (for instance) is just mounted as part of explorer.
Mine does the same thing. Tried your solution and it still don't work?
Plumbergeek -- I have found that sometimes the last installed APK (application) causes this fuss. Uninstall the last thing you added, reboot and try again. Sometimes I have to go back several applications to find the culprit. Once the offending APK is identified I then try to find an alternative application to install.
If you don't know how to uninstall applications, search the threads ... the answers are here. You can also install an application called Quick Uninstall. This app, though, usually will not delete/uninstall system applications.
Hope this helps!

Well, the last one was Auto Config Script so I'll just wipe it and start over.
I have the same problem and can't figure out how to fix this
Both drives are listed in Device manager as B&N Ebook USB Disk storage
but the won't mount in windows.
When connected to PC that wasn't use to root it driver installation will fail
and there is Unknow device listed in Device manager (Nook) and two B&N USB Drives
but they will not mount as well.
Did anyone found what causes this ?
Thanks
Never mind, got it,
you have to push the n button to get it in to USB mode.

That's strange... i've never heard of anyone having to do that before...
Anyone else need to do this to mount?
I've always had to unlock mine to get it to mount in Windows. I just thought that was normal... is it not?
Sent from my Nooted friend...
I was going crazy unable to mount the storage and this did it for me
I have no-lock installed so unlocking wasn't the problem for me.
This didn't help. I can't even find those in Device manager
I'm also stuck with this problem. I am on Linux and can see two drives listed as B&N Ebook Disk, with all the other properties "unknown". I can neither open the drives nor connect to them with adb. It says that there is no device connected when I try to connect with adb.
This problem only started after installing Honeycomb. I was able to connect to the device through USB just fine when I was on a normal-but-nooted os.
Drive letters appear in explorer, but still can't write to them
Hi, I have a variation on the problem... My ADB install is confirmed (via cmd line) and I have two new drive letters appear (I guess it's one for the nook's internal memory, the other for the micro SD card). However, when I try clicking on either letter, Windows pops up an error message saying "please insert card". If it helps, my device list ID's the nook as a "composite USB device", not as a "nook"... Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Same issue. This is killing me.

[Q] USB Mass Storage Device driver failed

Bought a LG P970 Optimus Black.
Installed LGMobile Support Tool into my
Windows 7 64bit.
Installed the LG 3.2.1 drivers using LGMobile Support Tool.
Then, I connected the phone to the computer.
Result of drivers installation:
LGE Android Platform Composite USB Device - Ready to use
LGE Android Platform USB Modem - Failed
LGE Mass Storage Device - Failed
LGE Android Platform USB GPS NMEA Port (COM6) - Ready to use
LGE Android Platform USB Serial Port (COM7) - Ready to use
I wasn't planning to use the phone as a modem, so that driver does not worry me, but the USB storage problem is annoying.
In the phone, it does look as it connected. It offers the option to activate USB storage on screen, and if I click on the button, it says it enabled it, but nothing happens in the computer side.
I tested to uninstall everything LGE from the computer and restart from scratch, but same problem.
Ideas?
Update:
The LGMobile Support Tool in Windows says the phone IS connected, and that the software in the phone is up to date.
Do You see the phone into section computer like Removable Disc?

No. Nothing at all.
In "Devices and Printers" I have:
Under Devices:
LG Android Phone
LG Android (Modem)
LG Android (Serial)
LG Android (NMEA)
Under Unspecified:
LGE Bluetooth TransPort (COM4)
LGE Virtual Modem
In the "Device Manager" I have 1 "USB Mass Storage Device", with a yellow warning sign.
Under its Properties, in Device Status, it says: "This device cannot start. (Code 10)
If I try to "Update Driver" Windows says that the right driver is already installed.
FIXED !!
Updated LG driver to 3.5.
Still didn't work.
Then, I turned off the phone.
Removed the battery.
Put the battery back.
Turned on the phone.
Connected it to USB.
This time the USB driver started ok, and when I activated the USB storage I was able to see the drive under "Computer" in Windows Explorer.
I had turned the phone off and on before, so I think removing the battery did something that simply turning off and on wouldn't do.

USB 3.0 External Storage Device driver not getting Installed- [Solved]
Issue: USB storage device is not working on my computer, be it a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 it just doesn't install the driver for storage device and my USB mouse and webcam does work.Everytime I plug in a USB flash drive of USB 3.0 External hard drive it beeps and gives error message that the device driver could not be installed.
Here is the steps I took to troubleshoot this issue and it got fixed.
1.Open registry by going to Run-> Type Regedit.
and Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}
Highlight this key ({36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000} ), on the right pane, and then check if “Upperfilters” and “Lowerfilters” value are present. If so, please right click on the values and select "Delete" to remove them.
2. Now go to "C:\windows\inf" folder and check if these three files USBSTOR.SYS, usbstor.inf and usbstor.pnf are available.If it was renamed change the name as I wrote them or if they are not available copy them from "C:\windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\usbstor.inf_x86_neutral_83027f5d5b2468d3"
And then go to "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Drivers" and make sure you have USBSTOR.SYS and usbd.sys available if not copy them again from
"C:\windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\usbstor.inf_x86_neutral_83027f5d5b2468d3"
and paste it to Drivers folder.
3. Open Registry editor by going to Run-> typing Regedit and Navigate to the following key:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\USBSTOR" and ensure that the Start value is 3. and restart the system.
It will work..
thx

Broken screen, want to retrieve files via USB.

Hello, my captivate screen broke (zero display) and I'd like to retrieve some the files mostly vids and pics from the phone memory.
I have downloaded the mini abd on my PC. The phones two drive paths are shown on my PC via USB cable, but says "insert disk". So how can I use abd to mount the phone as external storage so I can browse and copy files? I know "enable USB debugging" was already checked. Phone is rooted with CM10.1
This is my first attempt with adb....so I'll need the dummy explanation.
I hope that makes sense, thank you for reading!
Hope this helps. Check the links below.
