The following script will install necessary files for mtp and copy a Unity launcher that runs either a mount or unmount script so you can access the filesystem on your nexus 7 without having to resort to wifi.
This is not original work, the code was adapted from here
Background...why move away from UMS to MTP?
“MTP is a big improvement over USB mass storage — for devices with lots of internal memory, a manufacturer no longer needs to come up with some hard partition between the USB mass storage and internal storage. Instead, they are all in one partition, with MTP providing access to the directory of media files that would normally be available through USB mass storage. This means there is no longer a need for apps on SD card for such devices, because what used to be the ‘internal SD card’ is in the same partition as where applications are stored. The storage on your device can be used for either applications or media, depending on what you want to put on it. You aren’t stuck with how much space the manufacturer decided to leave for the two areas.
Oh also this means that the media storage doesn’t need to be unmounted from Android when it is being access through the PC.“
Using the Script:
1. Run install_me.sh by double-clicking and running in terminal, or launch sh from terminal
2. After install script completes, it will drop you to $HOME/.local/share/applications, copy over the file called Mount Nexus 7 Filesystem to your Unity Launcher
3. Right click on the Nexus 7 icon and chose mount or unmount. Mounting takes about 5-10 seconds, so be a little patient.
Note: Although Nautilus has an eject next to the folder, it will not do anything. You need to unmount from the launcher.

Script Details:
Install mtpfs package
Copy over a Nexus 7 icon for the launcher
Copy a mount and unmount script to your $HOME/.scripts folder
Copy a desktop file (unity launcher icon) to your $HOME/.local/share/applications folder
The desktop file calls either the mount or unmount script from the .scripts folder to mount as mtp filesystem

Thanks a lot. The script also works for my Samsung Galaxy Note II
I'm gonna give that script a try once I get the runt off the school bus.
I had it work once or twice, but now I'm not having much luck. Nautilus seems to be force closing a lot. I even rebooted, no difference. In fact even if I force close Nautilus and bring it back, it'll continually spin until I unplug my Nexus 7. The second I unplug it, my home dir files show up perfectly.
How do you do i Gnome 3?

I've got the same problem. I'm fairly familiar with mounting and unmounting in linux so I don't think it was anything I did.
How do I assign the icon to the file? I have a "?" icon where the Nexus 7 pic should be.

Ok I figured it out. I had to copy the icon PNG to /usr/share/pixmaps
Installed it but whenever i click 'Internal Storage' it just opens the home directory in another folder and i can never get to internal storage

Try this blog . See if that helps.
I fixed it!
All you have to do is change nautilus ~/Nexus7 in the mount_nexus7.sh in the install folder to nautilus ~/Nexus7/*
Save
Uninstall the script and the install again.
This is SO much easier than using gMTP.
it work for me ,but can we do something so that it automount when we plug in the usb?
How do I remove Nexus 7 folder?
Hello, my name is Chisa and I'm a noobette
I followed your directions on "Easy-Mount Script for Mounting MTP in Ubuntu" to view my Nexus 7 tablet folder from my Linux desktop file explorer. Everything went according to instructions - I copied and pasted the command lines into the terminal and watched as the mysterious machine gibberish scrolled like it was doing something important... and then, finally, I saw the Nexus folders in my Linux Mint file explorer, although, it shows empty
Being the ADD noobette that I am, I moved on to another app promising the same thing - the gMTP - and lucky me, this one worked and can be installed directly from the software manager in Linux Mint. It's still not the ideal fast and simple file transfer like it is with my Nokia phone usb connection - why can't things be kept that simple?
So now I'm in a pickle: cannot delete the Nexus 7 folder created by your script. How do I make it go away? Is there something to uninstall?
I didn't try any other script besides this one. I promise :angel:
Reboot worked

AW: Easy-Mount Script for Mounting MTP in Ubuntu
I'm using Kubuntu and kio-mtp, that combination works very well for me. It integrates the mtp protocol into dolphin so i just have to plug in the N7 and it shows up in the "removable media"-popup. Just google it, the post on the German Ubuntu forum is pretty self-explanatory. There's also a ppa.
I don't think it's gonna work with Gnome3 or Unity though, as far as i know it's only for KDE.

Thanks Man for putting this together great job !!
I keep getting "Installation Aborted" when trying to flash the Samung S boot/shutdown. I hate the Tmobile one. I do see the udpate.zip on the internal card. If it matters, I did flash clockwork recovery before this.
I did the remove sounds, then tried the flash with no luck.

testing it now. confirmed it doesn't work, i had assumed it was properly signed based on my memory of it, but it turns out i was mistaken.
What you can do in the mean time because it might be a while until I get it fixed, is push the boot/shutdown file to your phone and change the update.zip files name, restore clockwork and flash through clockwork.... I am updating the files to reflect this.
It will be working in v0.9 so go ahead and redownload if you see that. Also coming in v0.9 option to install drivers for phone. And maybe more, who knows.

I'm still not understanding where to put the "Vibrant MultiTool" folder to get it to work. Do I put it on the SD card, or on the phone? Do I copy over everything in that folder which contains a "utils" folder along with the MultiTool app?
Thanks for the help.

good one mate I use this app for one year or so, and it's amazing
Finally... exactly what I was looking for.
Can't thank you enough for posting this. I've been rooting around for a good all-in-one toolbox for a while. Blows DroidExplorer, etc., out of the water.
Any possibility you could add some more tags to improve other's chances of finding it? I'm certain there are lots more folks looking for exactly this kinda tool.
hey so this seems like a good use of getting around some bugs for usb mount... but quick question, im trying to open the QtADB.exe file, and then it asks me for the path to adb and aapt binaries. I've installed the adroid-sdk package, so where do I point the directory to? my android sdk path is on c:/-program files (x86)- Android. The FAQ doesn't really help in answering questions...
awesome tool!
wifi connection doesnt work.. i downloaded the apk and tried connecting but didnt work..
The most awesomest PC app for android ever! Sammy better learn something from you, and FAST!

I haven't been able to get ADB (of any kind, from any source) to run on my win7 64 bit machine...ever. I've had the SDK installed for a while now and have tried several times to get ADB working- today is no different.
Try the adb setup link in my sig!
But you don't need to know how to use adb to use this program

Trouble getting hard adb root on Captivate GB 2.3.5 ROM
Android Commander 0.7.9.9 at http://androidcommander.com/ xda link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597098
I have a Samsung Captivate running a modified stock leaked GB 2.3.5 One flash ROM that has been Fugu rooted. TiBU, Rom Toolbox and other Super User apps all work.
So this program by PanPiotr looks like just what the noob in me is after, and I'm sure a few others out there too.
Once installed the program seems to be fine. I have one problem that I can't seem to overcome. That is getting a hard or adb root on the phone. I have tried to follow the instructions of PanPiotr but I don't have a boot.img file in my nandroid BU as outlined in his FAQs. Only cache.img, data.img, sd-ext.img and system.img I can use unyaffs-windows to extract the files in these but the default.prop appears to be calling to be loaded from ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung, which I can't seem to find.
I can modify the default.prop ro.debuggable=0 to =1 with root explorer but just doing it in the root doesn't help. I can't seem to find out which IMG file in my nandroid BU has or how to modify the default.prop file loader to get the ro.debuggable=1 to take or stay.
Consequently the Root Access indicator always says Root Access:NO
Any help would be appreciated.
TYIA
Bud
May have this worked out.
So I flashed a custom rom and kernel. Connected Android commander to phone and I have Root access:OK. Program works great. Thanks PanPiotr.
On the brighter side of all this while in recovery mode of the new kernel (CornKernel_UCKJ3_v403) I found a way of switching the toggle for debugging enabled to on if that kernel works with the rom I was on then that will work. It should so I'll give that a try and let you know.
EDIT:
So I just finished and this worked brilliantly. Hope it helps someone else.

That is correct.
As soon as I get it to mount one of the storages (internal or external) than it will be out for testing.
Reverting some settings result in a successful backup to internal storage, need to work on getting both internal and external to work.
Done. Link and instructions on how to install in OP

Yeah, those things are probably from the fact the 800x480 are from a Gtab, I might try to clean that up later.
Doing a restore from internal and external storage now to see if it works.
@giveen...
So when you say adb shell you meant I have access to the file system once mounted but not in an USB mass storage way? I have to use adb push, pull commands?

I did "Mount USB" from inside the TWRP
It showed up in my Device Manager as "Ventana", installed ADB driver for Dell Streak 7
From command line I ran "adb shell", so I am assuming "adb push/pull" will work as well right now.
Also, the cosmetic issue of "mount internal / external " will be fixed hopefully tomorrow. I've moved the button over 200px and now just need to move the text.
Giveen,
Thanks for the recovery.img. Did a backup and it appeared to work fine. Haven't done a restore yet.
For those who are as backwards as I am, this might help getting you into TWRP menu.
Power off your Streak
1) press and hold Vol + and power buttons until you get a menu
2) When the menu comes up, select option 2 (Software upgrade via update package on SD card)
That will take you into the cool TWRP menu.
Again, thanks Giveen for all of your hard work.
awesome!
This is the most groundbreaking development for our streaks since the ICSbeta builds.
Giveen, you should feel amazing about the progress you are making. Am I wrong to assume you used the TWRP porting guide to create this recovery? I'm just curious to know your resources so I can look into having my windows pc recognize the streak7 similar to the way it does when powered on (mtd?) ADB is fine and all, it would just be perfect to be able to drag n drop through Windows... I was able to do that on my HTC Evo using twrp.
I have begun to search for generic ics flashable zip mods to test out

Yes, I used this guide
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23903-how-to-compile-twrp-from-source/
And talked it over with one of the main dev's Dees_Troy
I did talk to him about MTP, but he said he wasn't sure yet about how to implement it.

Does this mean that my device is read only?

No that just means youre Streak isn't being recognized as a fastboot device I think

I replied to the OP on twitter, but if you look really carefully at the command line picture he posted, you shall see the problem.
I've always used: "fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img" which works.
What is up with this error? get it everytime I try to drag and drop a file to my droid using the file browser in windows... HTC sync is working though.
Umh, really strange, which version of windows you have?
windows 7, it was working fine for a long time... I can still delete and modify the contents... I'm gonna try reinstalling the drivers I guess, because different USB ports didn't seem to help.
Re-Install HTC Sync or upgrade it to the latest version.
And see in device manager if there is some problem

Try to type:
Code:
adb kill-server
then
Code:
adb start-server
then
Code:
adb device
and see if your phone is online!
If yes, re-try to push the file.

All work fine, so there is some prob with the drive of the one...
But, now, you can flash your rom
It was working just fine before... I don't understand what could have happened that would cause it to bug out in windows explorer... even though I was able to push the file, I had to reconnect the One to see the file on the drive in the windows file browser because it was not updating...

I have dozens of gigs of pictures/videos/songs to copy to my 3 android devices, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 10 and Galaxy S4. Connecting to win7/64 via usb has always been problematic. Sometimes, 1 file copies, sometimes 1000 will. I regularly got the dreaded "The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected" message. Unplug the cable, wait for minutes while it rescans the file system. Tried uninstalling Samsung USB driver, reinstalling, rebooting all devices many times. It has never been reliable on any android device.
SOLUTION:
Take windoz explorer out of the loop.
I installed WinSCP and Putty on windoz and Rooted SSH/SFTP Daemon by OSS Mobile Apps on my Android devices. NOTE: MUST BE ROOTED.
Works like a charm. It took no more time to install this software than it did to recover from 2 screwed up file transfers. Much less aggravation!
I have a similar problem. Running 4.1.2 stock on Windows 8. I prefer just to use windows explorer to transfer files. How can I solve this?
exit all windows explorer windows.
right click the windows explorer shortcut/taskbar icon and run as administrator do this twice.
open both the phone directory you want to transfer Too, and the file location you wish to transfer from.
for me it allowed me to transfer files but seemed to not like one specific file and recured in giving the same error but only for that one file.
Deleting this file and re-downloading allowed me to transfer it.
i am assuming its the phone detecting a corrupt file or something similar and refuses to transfer the file to prevent un desireable effects.
Or
the device is flipping out and being tempermental about what files it wants to transfer.

Took the zip you've to flash and put it into the adb folder in your pc.
Or use the ctrl+x and into adb folder crtl+v

I just ran into this error trying to copy a custom ROM zip to my phone. I think Sieze hit the mark with his comment about the file that wasn't transferring being corrupt. I ran a md5 check on the zip file that was giving me the error and it did not match. I redownloaded the file and it copied just fine.
So while I was at first frustrated and blamed Windows for goofing with the USB transfer, now I'm very thankful that the error likely saved me from flashing a corrupt ROM file!

well its likely your recovery would catch it corrupt and not let it flash but always nice to have multiple screenings for corrupt files.
