I recently upgraded from CM7 XRON to Classicnerd ICS and for some reason, I cannot access the USB Storage via CWM or through MTP in ICS. The only way that works for me is to boot up WebOS and mount the USB drive. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this same issue, or is aware of a fix for it? Thanks!
Make sure MTP is set under storage settings.
I also found I had to disable USB debugging under the developer options to connect to my XP PC.
I did both of those things, that is what is so strange. I am on Windows 7. Oh well, at this point I will just boot into webOS to access the sd card, just a pain to do that.
Use airdroid....no need of USB mounting....

I seem to have problems with certain USB ports on my laptop. One will not work at all while the other works fine. I always recommend trying an alternate port on your laptop/desktop if you think all your settings are fine in CM.

Hi, I got a problem with the usb cable...
Tried all usb ports, tried with other computers... nothing helps.
The computer detect the nexus one, no problems.
When I Turn On the usb storage its recognize the SD card, and I can get into the SD, also I can delete files but when I'm trying to copy files (to SD) seems like its start copying the files but then stops and its get out from the usb mass storage mode.
I tried this also:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=613217
Also, tried to uninstall the drivers with USBDeview [http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html], and install again with the new drivers...
also reset the computer / nexus one ...
still same problem...
any suggestions ?
The problem might be with the cable ?
I tried it also with at least 4 other PCs, none of them detect the nexus via this usb cable, except of 1 that had the problem above.
I had the same problem as you with CM7, are you using Cm7 or any other custom rom?
If i put the phone in airplane mode the transfer was always succesfull and didn't get out the usb storage mode. Then i disabled it and tried it again and failed sometimes. I noticed that everytime it failed i got a message (notification) so i found out that the problem was in the notification. so when the app is on sd and android wants access to the app it will disable the storage mode en grant access to the sd.
This only happend on custom roms, after flashing stock rom everything was fine again.
If you have the same symptoms as me you can try to transfer a file in airplane mode and maybe, if you on custom rom, try a stock rom.
Hope this will help, goodluck
Thanks for answer mate.
I'm with Geo rom, I tried the Airplane mode but nothing change..anyway, I also tried 2 usb cables of friends who have Galaxy S, and it both works just fine!
Seems like the problem is with the cable, so I order 2 new cables.
Thanks again for the help!
Hello,
recently I flash my O2x with stable CM7 and from then I have issue with usb mounting. I plug the usb on the pc and a USB composite device appears with problem (device can't start). This happens also if enable/disable usb debugging or press the button for the usb storage support. I have try the 173 nightly same thing. To be sure that there is no problem with the pc I have try it on 2 different laptops.
Also to be sure that is CM7 issue and not my mobile I have restore a backup with the stock rom and everything works perfect.
Do we have any idea what is the problem?
Have you installed an LG Mobile driver pack?
in 2 from the 3 pc was installed (the third one is from a friend that has a LG laptop(!) and HTC phone)
I have a similar problem with CM7. I flashed first with NB 157 and now I'm with the latest one but I've never figured how to mount the phone as a usb storage. I use the default CM mounting points. SD card is mounted as /sdcard and internal is /emmc titanium backup, rom manager and all other software works fine with the sdcard, but every time I try to mount it as storage the windows popup that the USB Device cannot be recognized. I've installed the latest drivers from LG'w website. Also I've tried on 2 different PC's both with windows 7 but no luck. Also I've read somewhere in the forums that Dual Mount SD Widget can mount the SD card, i purchased it from the market but it doesn't work.
This is generally an issue with cm7 based roms. It's only reported on Windows and I haven't seen this problem in Linux.
If you have CWM, use it to mount your disk from recovery
Thank you for the tip but I've tried mounting usb storage in recovery and it doesn't work on Windows 7 64 bit. Also I've reinstalled the LG drivers but no luck so far.
Actually in recovery the OS recognize the phone and installs about 4-5 drivers including the Mass Storage one. Unfortunately there is one unidentified device in a list and when it fail to recognize it doesn't mount the phone as storage.

I'm thinking this is a driver issue. Any chance of getting your hands on a linux?
Anyway, CWM mount works for me in win7_64. It's weird why it doesn't on your setup. I've read of USB tethering issues on GB roms like cm7, but not on stock-based GB roms. Could be a driver issue fixed deep within the kernel to work on the specific board.
Try using topogigi's or paul's rom. USB mount works on both.
I've tried it on Ubuntu and it works like charm. Actually both emmc and sdcard are recognized and mounted as separate flash drives.
I'm seeing some mounting fixes in here: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=p990
This might fix mount problems on next latest release. Haven't tried it yet though. You might want to check the kang thread if someone built from the latest sources
What do you mean on next release? Everything you see there is in #177

My bad. I meant the next nightly release at the time of my post above. I'm now on nightly_177 but haven't tried mount on Windows. Works as always in Linux
I can confirm that cm7.1 stable through 177 the usb mounting doesn't work under windows but only under linux.
Does anyone know where i can put it as a bug?
Its working for me, had a problem when I tried it first, after that, power cycle phone, reinstalled the SD card and after that everything worked...it might be also that I reinstalled the LG drivers yesterday before doing this.

It's a difficult one, as it doesn't affect everyone. My USB mounting is still fine.
For what it's worth, I'm using LG United Mobile Driver v3.4
I have installed the latest nightly for my galaxy note and I can't mount properly my storage. The USB prompt doesnt come up on the notification drawer.. Any ideas?
When plugging in your phone into usb, just go to settings-->Applications-->Development and check the USB debugging .If you can't mount SD Card and your pc doesn't recognise it then Your USB is bricked .. There is a tutorial on the forums that will help you with that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691187
That's a known issue with CM, unfortunately. There are apps on the market that allow you to mount storage, although I use Airdroid.
Since using this I don't even care about the issue

Argh.. Are the devs aware of this? They need to fix it Also the phone randomly shuts off when the performance option is selected in the performance options..
Go to, setting> developer options and tick the usb debugging
Now go to settings> storage and press the menu key and choose the usb computer connection and tick the mass storage
Now you have the option of usb debugging in your notification when you connect your device to computer

Thanks for your advise, but it does not work at all... :crying:
The funny thing is that is used to work after installation of the nightley build 2 days ago. But suddendly it stopped working...
Even a re-install of the the older (or newer build) does not bring it back... :-(
Any other ideas?
With kind regards

Hmmm, the recent comments from users in Google Play (on the ad-version and the paid one) are very negative, and explicitly say that it does not work (anymore?) on CM9...
But I will give it a try today evening...
With kind regards

Hello guys,
I had CM7 running for a while because of its stability. However, I have used CM9 as well for a long time on my P990. Today, I was planning to revert back to CM9 and connected the phone to the computer but the internal memory nor the memory card shows up in my computer. I tried two different laptops and also reflashed cm7 which was already present in my memory card. Still no luck.
When I connect the phone, I get the bell, alert or whatever you want to call it from windows that it has detected that a usb device has connected. Though nothing shows up in my computer. USB Debugging is switched on. And I also press the notification on the phone which should allow me to transfer files between phone and computer.
Im out of ideas, please help.
Re-install the LG USB drivers, found here in the developers section.
I had the same problem when I flashed my phone and everytime I changed roms, I would have to install the drivers again.

And if reinstalling the drivers does not help for whatever reason, and if all that you're trying to do is to push the CM9 rom files from your PC to the SD on your phone, then try following the tip from XDA-TV using SSHDroid. It worked well for me.

The example in the video is with a Ubuntu machine, but you can follow the same steps for using PC with Putty and WinSCP.
And I haven't tried this, but another alternative is using adbwireless available through Play:

Used to have Xron-mod CM7 on touchpad. This weekend I installed CM9 using novacom and changed the setting to MTP (diabled debugging mode). After plug in usb cable, Windows 7 says it successfully installed cm-tenderloin and recognizes SD storage. CM9 says charging. But when I click SD card under cm-tenderloin, there's nothing. When I tried to builder a new folder, it says NO. Is it a common problem for you guys? If I cannot transfer files between windows and CM9, that will be painful. Thank you for your help. Any clue?

Go to Settings/Storage/ and at the top right click the 3 buttons/USB Computer Connection and select Media device(MTP)
Moved to Q&A
You need to unlock the device before anything will show up under cm-tenderloin.
