Getting a little deep. I know we have all seen the CDROM folder in our root, and our phone when connected sometimes shows up as a CDROM when connected to a windows pc. also we know that the browser on our PC opens and vzw media. And we know that removable media can not autorun on windows 7(only allows autoplay)
So my question is as followed...
does any one know how our Droids lunches the the default browser on our PCs to vzw webpage when we connect to pc? furthmore can anyone figure out how to get an autorun.inf to run from our phone when connected to pc.
Ive tried putting the autorun.inf in the folder labeled CDROM in the root directory, on the root, on the root of internal sd card, and root of external sdcard without any success.
Open to ideas

aiutooo I can not see the internal memory can not understand what happened
I installed a new room and from that moment I can connect more with the pc x and even see the folders inside the tab, only connect with a download odin x, tried again to put a stock, but nothing to make the TEB is fine but I see more folders inside and I connect more with the PC
WHO CAN GIVE ME A HAND X SOLVE THE PROBLEM??
Many of the custom firmwares do not support Kies. So if you're trying to access the tablet via Kies, this is likely the problem.
When you plug in the tablet does an option on the tablet show up to mount as a USB storage device?

Hi
Would like to know if, when you try to access your data stored on the external SD via MTP, you can see all of your files ?
(Using Windows)
This MTP thing is a real mess for me, I can never have the full access to my files. With the Razr i I only have 2 folders with some media files when I open the device with Windows explorer... there should be a plenty of folders and I don't know why I don't see them and how I can see them!
Tks
PS: even with the internat storage I don't have full access. for example, if I create a zip file with some file explorer on the phone, it never show on the MTP device!
Give me back UMS !
That's normal, MTP is a very special mode, so you can't modify files or see some files..
But I don't understand why there isn't an usb mass storage when the phone is connect ?

I would love to have the answer
@ this time: no UMS on the Razr i ...
Then use PTP, it maps /sdcard and /external1 to your computer, you can clearly access them via a normal file manager.
PTP is worst ... it's made only for pictures!
There is no USB Massstorage from 4.0 upwards cause google decided to remove this feature....
ptp is made for pictures but it also can be used for normal files but mtp is prefered....
i am on ubuntu and after a nice little tutorial i am mounting my phone via mtp and i can modify and see everything, its mounted as usb would...
havent tried to see the external card because its ext4 formatted and running arch linux so

I know Google decided to remove ums on the stock Android. But it's not on obligation and constructor have all right to put it if they want.
BTW, I saw same screenshot of a razr vd or a razr maxx which has ums!
I'm running Windows and use Total Commander. There is a great plugin "totalanddroid" that gives me access to all my files (SDcard and internal memory). It uses adb and runs with USB connection or Wifi connection. I tried to find some adb explorer that runs without Total Commander, but none of them is really working on my machine. But maybe you'll have a bit more luck (my phone is not yet rooted, sometimes this seems to be a prerequisite).
NICE

thanks mate, never knew about this plugin. very nice!
Thanks for the workaround.
I'll use this until we have anoher solution as UMS support throught custom rom.
OK guys I am in a bit of a Pickle here.
I plugged my phone into a PC in Bangkok to print out some PDFs containing flight information.
the pc started making .exe files on my phone with duplicate names of existing folders. e.g i have a folder called media on my phone so an exe called media.exe was created DCIM.exe and so on.
i plugged the phone into my laptop and ESET found a high amount of infiltrations over 400 which it cleaned by deleting. these were all the duplicate . exe files that it flagged as worms and Trojans.
now when i plug my phone into my laptop only certain files are visible. this is on the external SD and the phone itself. the files exist on the phone and SD card as i can see them all in in the explorer app such as all of my pictures and music camera photos etc, but alas the pc will not display these folders but when i click properties on the drive name in my computer it shows the free and used space correctly.
please do you have any suggestions ? my phone is rooted and i am using the alliance ROM. and do not want to brick this device just because of a stupid Asian virus.
thank you for any help you can offer
Alliance rom? JB or ICS?
Cuz in JB there is an issue with mtp of not displaying all files.
In ics, you can try to format your internal sd card and restore the data and check.
For this boot into recovery. Go to mounts and storage and mount usb storage. Connect to pc and this time you should see everything. If yes, copy all data to pc and format the storage using pc or format/emmc. Then put back the data. Reboot and check.
It is Alliance Rom ICS. so you mean format the phones SDCARD and the External SD card in recovery mode ?
yes either using the recovery option or using the drives displayed on the screen when connected to PC

What is the use?
If he formats it he will lose the files he is trying to access.
I have the same problem but I don't have any viruses. Just ask the photos from the last two months don't show when viewed from a Windows PC across a USB connection.
Hi,
I'm running Pacman 4.4.4 RC-1 on my HTC Vivid. The rom works great except I can't get my sd to work correctly. I had a problem with this on another mod as well. I have formatted it through windows (FAT32 default settings) and through the recovery mode, but to no avail. Whenever I connect my usb to the computer it has the option of MTP connection or Mass storage (UMS). If I click mtp it pops up in windows as a media device and won't let me add files it gives me an error that i can't write access. If I select Mass storage the card does not show up at all in windows. I've tried this card alone in windows and it transfers files fine and works. I'm not sure what I need to do to get it work? I need to transfer my calllogs and my messages over to it (have a backup file of these). Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

First, when you boot into recovery and enable the usb, can you transfer files to the computer then?

Since I got off of sense... I haven't had the USB to computer connection working... I never use it though...
On the rare occasion I do... I mount via USB in TWRP recovery... Works 100% for me

I installed TWRP recovery and it allowed me to mount my sd card. I can transfer files to it through the computer when in TWRP. However when it pops up on my computer it says that drive e (im assuming the internal) needs to be formatted should i do this? Wouldn't that erase all the apps on my phone? Even though it lets me transfer files through twrp when i try to do anything involving the sd card in android it gives me errors. I need to transfer my xml files that contain my text messages and call logs through either titanium backup or super backup but they give me errors. I also cannot install any apps to the sd card (error). Hope they helps some. I feel like I'm either missing a step here or doing something wrong.

Well, I would guess that the format would erase all the stuff on there. I had some issues myself which I solved by pretty much nuking my phone's storage completely and re-flashing a ROM. I cannot remember exactly how I did it, but these threads seem promising if you haven't already tried them:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156302
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696972
And I would back up everything you can, and then try re-formatting it in windows while in recovery.

When I formatted the internal drive as well it worked correctly. I finally got it working! Thanks everyone I needed TWRP basically. I just found another issue though and it's with not being able to hear my visual voicemails (they work fine without visual) and I have problems with people not hearing me sometimes. Any fix for either? Sorry if I should start another thread for these I can do that.
Thanks
I can't really help with visual voicemail, as ST doesn't have one I can use. I did fond that setting up google voice as my voicemail provider allowed me to use google voice as a visual voicemail.
The not being able to hear you thing is a fairly common issue, and while I am lucky enough to not have to deal with that on my phone, I believe a temporary fix is to call someone, hang up, then any subsequent calls should be fine.

So i was tinkering with my moto x and decided to give it a go at unlocking the bootloader, i started the process and did it succesfully, little did i know that it wiped my whole phone, i was used to do unlocks on phones with sd cards and all my files were safe but this time i lost all my photos and videos so im wondering how can i use a program like recuva or other windows programs if it doesnt show in windows as a drive because of MTP protocol.
Sorry to say, but your files are gone forever. There is no recovery methods that work through mtp.
