[Q] CM9-SGT7-TE4M-20120127 Usb problem - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys
Been using CM9 for a few weeks now...on the latest build (CM9-SGT7-TE4M-20120127) whenever i connect the tablet to the computer and press 'turn on USB storage' it goes into the loading icon and gets stuck there. Neither the internal storage or the external sd card show up on the pc, and the loading icon gets stuck in a loop.
on disconnecting the tab from the pc and going into settings i find that both internal storage and sd card become unmounted, and need to be remounted manually.
While the mounts were reversed on the last build i did not have this problem. I have tried a full data wipe, reflashed the stock gingerbread, updated to overcome then flashed the new cm9 rom and appropriate kernel.
I'm using a galaxy tab p1000. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

theres an app on your drawer called usb mass storage toggle, open it, choose the green android and the internal sd will pop up on the pc for u to use, blue andriod to eject, ext sd cannot cannot be detected, they are still working on it. wait for an update.

[Q] External SD card not visible on PC Voodoo-stable-5.1-Froyo-2.2.1

Hello,
I can not see the external sd card on my windows PC.
I can see the internal sd card as a drive and i have read write access on my win PC (XP/ prof and win7 prof)
I can see the external sd card as a drive but cannot see any files or folders.
connected USB cabel
select mass storage device
not possible to connect USB to PC via dialog (no notification is vissible in notification bar)
reconnect usb cable
Now it is possibel to connect USB to PC via upcoming dialog on phoneselect mass storage device Message box comes up telling that some apps may not work because they have access to sd card
After disconnecting the phone from PC I cannot access the external SD card on my phone until reboot of phone.
I can access the the external sd card using a card reader on my PC.
I think I got these problems since flashing Voodoo-stable-5.1-Froyo-2.2.1-GT-I9000
Firmware Version 2.2
Baseband I9000XXJPP
Kernel 2.6.32.9
I tried to format the sd card with the phone - no changes.
Best regards and thanks in advance O
I have the exact same problem, when I connect with usb cable to my win 7 x64 system using the mass storage option, at first I do not connect at all, then I have to remove the usb cable once, after that I can connect but only see the sd card on the phone itself, the external sd card is invisible.
When I remove the usb cable I am also unable to see the external sd card on the phone itself and I have to restart my phone in order to see it again.
My proplem is solved. By error I installed the voodoo 5.1. on Froyo 2.2 . But it should have been installed on Froyo 2.2.1 as mentioned in the filename of the zip file. I thought froyo 2.2.1 is included in the voodoo update.

Hey,
External SD is not mounted by CWM, it's not enabled by default.

way to stop the SD card from mounting?

i noticed that every time i plug my phone to my computer it allways mounts the SD card even if i did not tell it to. is there a way to choose not to mount the phone? i tether my phone alot and so when i plug it in it will change all my ringtones because the SD card is mounted and all my ringtones are on it
I'm running the latest ICS leak and I've found that the device will remember what USB option you gave it. Since there is no charge only option on the leak, I select the "camera device" option. Now everytime I plug it into a computer it defaults to that and the sd cards stay mounted.

I keep mine in "mtp" mode on ICS, you still can access the card to copy files to it and the phone has access so your tones remain the same.

Samsung Captivate external SD card wont show up on computer

hi, i have a samsung captivate running android 2.1, i finally managed to root it with a update package, though, this phone is old, and does not clockwork mod (free version) in the market . therefore, im trying to sideload the free version of clockwork mod with android sideload wonder machine ( AT&T blocked installation of unknown services on this device) , though whenever i mount my external SD my computer wont recognize it( nothing pops up and i cant find the SD card on the computer). any advice/ tips? im using the orginal cable, installed driver many times and restarted many times thanks!
Guys! please help!
I highly recommend you update to at least stock Gingerbread; that way you will be able to sideload apps without any hassle, plus you'll be up to date in general. When you activate USB mass storage from the device, you don't need to mount the external sd separately. They should appear on your computer as 2 removable drives, or sometimes Samsung likes to hide the external sd in a folder called "external-sd" that shows up on your internal.
agree, re recommendation to go GB or at least froyo. is the external_sd folder visible in the phone and does it see the real card?
even when my phone was new, running froyo stock unrooted, and I had never put an external sd in the device, the folder existed, but it was only a placeholder for mounting an sd card.
you can check settings, sd storage, to see if the phone mounted the external sd properly.

[Q] Cayanogenmod 4.2.2 External & Internal Sd Card Issue. Please Help!

Hi
I am having an issue where when I am transferring files from my PC to the phone via USB, it disconnects after a random amount of time. Then in system settings/storage both the internal and external sd cards are not showing and phone runs noticeably slow. After reboot the sd cards show again.
This is how I installed the Mod.
1. Backed up all my app date via Titanium & copied all personal items off sd cards onto PC
2. Reset phone & formatted USB storage.
3. Via Odin, installed 2.3.6 stock, restarted.
4. Via Odin, rooted with CWM.
At this point, this is where my phone was before, only clean.
5. Booted into recovery and wiped data, factory reset & wiped cache.
6. Installed Cayanogen (cm-10.1-20130507-NIGHTLY-galaxysmtd.zip) via recovery.
7. Installed Google apps (gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip) via recovery.
8. Reboot x 2.
Now phone is working fine. Time to transfer files to SD card
9. Connected via USB and started to copy files from PC to External Sd card.
10. Transfer starts successfully but stops after an undetermined amount of time (Have attempted multiple)
11. A Message appears on my computer that "The path XXX is no longer available, retry? cancel?"
Now when I "Unmount USB Storage" from the phone and go into System Setting/Storage, both the Internal & External cards are not showing. Also, the file explorer will not show any data when opened, it keeps searching. A reboot brings back the SD cards, but doing a file transfer from the PC starts this all over again.
I heard this could be a issue with EMMC & external_sd? So I mounted SD card 1 (External) to the "external_sd" folder via "ISC SD Binder" to no avail.
Please help, apart from this I really like this ROM! I don't want to have to go back to stock...
No one?
Hi there, have u problems in formating your SD card (Phone)?? It will erase all msgs photos images apps etc but you will have a fresh rom installed. You can backup ur photos and stuff to the pc or external card though. Just go Settings / Backup & Reset / factory data reset enable Erase SD card and Reset phone

I have a fresh rom installed. Not personal data.
The issue I am having is that the phone is loosing the USB connection when transferring file while on CM 10.1. Then the Internal and External SD card do not show up in system storage.
No issues whatsoever with 2.3.6 stock (Rooted)

Yes But did you do the factory data reset in the settings/backup&reset after flashing the cm 10.1? Also active android debbugging in developer options and try it if u didnt yet.

Yea I did that.
What's happening is when the phone disconnects randomly during file transfers, the phone thinks the USB and SD storage is still mounted in the computer.
Only rebooting the phone will unmount them.
No problem transferring to the USB storage, only the SD.
I have given up on this issue. I like the ROM so I just remove the SD card and insert it in my laptop when I want to transfer files. Which thankfully, isn't that often.
Still... Would be nice to not have to.

Thanks, will try that.
But usually its quicker to transfer via direct connection or cable than wireless, even if I have to un-mount the SD card.
Okay I don't know how I fixed it but I just transferred about 7gb of MP3s to my device using wmp12.
The only thing that has changed is that recently installed super nexus milestone 1.
Happy chappy!
