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.

I've been having trouble getting my nexus one to work as a mass storage device. I will mount sd and then it unmounts on its on. Tried on 32 bit system and it worked perfect. I can mount in recovery fine and i can use adb fine but not mass storage. I tried installing the drivers on here for 64 bit and it works for a little but if i restart my phone it starts unmounting and i have to reinstall drivers. i also tried installing pdanet and it works but same issue after restarting phone. any help would be appreciated
i've had no issues on win7 64bit mounting it, ive only done it once though, i prefer adb or i ftp files from pc to phone.
Using Win7 64bit here too....no probs...hmm..
Same here using Windows 7 64 bit no problems to report. I copied 3 gig music at one time to the SD and it worked fine.
I had the same problems.
The only way I could get it back to mounting again (and the not-mounting problem hasn't returned) was to:
1) Go into 'Devices and Printers'. (Start Button/'Devices and Printers'
2) Right Click on Nexus One and eject.
3) Disconnect usb cable and reconnect and then try to mount from N1 again...
I was thinking that the problem probably started because of my network mounts and then my usb hub on my monitor with all the card reader options as well. I think my drive letters got a little conflicted.
I had to fixed all that first in the Disk Management.
Hope that helps. I was really frustrated with not being able to mount the last couple of days.
Using Win7 64bit here and no issues. Mounted a few times to transfer music and pics.
i have no idea whats wrong. it works fine on my 32bit laptop. mass storage works in recovery. Its confusing
Manually seek and install driver?
I couldn't get it to work on windows 7 pro 64bit with administrator rights. With a user without admin rights, it worked fine!
I already tried manually installing and i have admin rights on windows 7 64 bit ultimate
there are 2 drivers you have to install from the androidsdk. device drivers and usb drivers. install through devmgmt.msc, browse to correct folders in android sdk to install.
You don't need the device drivers to use mass storage. You just need the usb drivers, which should have installed when you first plugged the phone in.
Have you got the Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver installed on your pc?
I have the exact same issue with win 7 64bit home premium. No problem on winxp 32 at work. Also no problems with my ubuntu 64 bit set up. It also works fine in recovery mode.
a long time ago I called HTC about this, because it happened right after I got the phone in January and the official HTC response was, 64 bit os's are not supported!
I had the same issue. It all basically came down to not "safely removing" the storage before unplugging.
Did your computer flag the micro SD card as not safely removed and does it want to scan it for errors when you plug it in? This was happening to me. Apparantly Nexus was somehow choking on the attempt to "repair" and it simply unmounted the card. One day I took the card out of my Nexus, put it into a card reader and let Windows check it for errors. After that, I didn't experience any auto-unmounting anymore.
Actually I'm lying
Another problem was the underpowered USB hub which I use. If you use a hub, try connecting directly to your PC.
Ironically, since flashing back to stock rom (just fiddling around cos I was bored ) I've just had this issue of Win7 64bit not being able to recognise/access the sd card of my N1. Here's how I fixed it:
1. Plug phone into PC.
2. Turn on USB storage from dropdown menu on phone.
3. Go to Device Manager in Windows.
4. Find 'Android Phone' in Device Manager.
5. Right-click and choose 'Update Driver Software'.
6. Choose the 'Browse my computer for driver software' option.
7. Choose 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer' option.
8. You'll now see 'Android ADB device' and 'USB Mass Storage Device'. Choose the latter and click next.
Windows should reinstall the mass storage driver and the sd card should mount in windows.
If you haven't installed Android SDK in the past then you'll not have an 'Android Phone' in device manager. In this case look in the 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers and follow 5-8 above but right-clicking 'USB Mass Storage Device' instead.
Note: I'd done a format of my sd card before plugging in the phone so if the method doesn't work try that (assuming you've nothing on there that you want to keep).

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 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 just had the same problem. Updated from Xronified CM7 to CM9. USB won't work in either mode.

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.
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:

Hi,
First of all: I thought I could use USB mass storage in CM 10.1 before I installed it yesterday. Now I know that it is not possible right now and I have to use the MTP option. The problem here is that it does not work correctly and I don't know what to do. When I connect the P880 to the computer using USB I can access the P880 as "portable device(s)" as usual with MTP. Then I click it and it is always empty. I copy files on it which works just fine, but the next time I connect it to the PC the folder is empty again, although the files are copied into the /sdcard folder and they are still there (I see them on my phones Explorer). One thing to mention is, that I cannot copy folders onto the device which are already there (tried to copy "Music" folder and got an error). The error message then is: "Cannot copy Music\n The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected".
Does anyone have the same problem?
Did you check whether ADB debugging has been turned off before using MTP?

It was on, but now it is off and I still have the same problem. I did not know, that such a thing happens when USB debug is turned on. Why should it?
For me it works fine with the 24.04.2013 build from CM website. :-s Just flashed it and works perfect, try flashing the latest CM.
that was the problem of first nightlies. swapping two memory storage and in the case u didnt have sd memory card, ur internal memory would be empty. updating to latest nighly will solve it.
I am never able to connect my phone via USB after upgrading to CM. So I use wifi file browser and transfer files.
