USB Brick? (Usb mas storage not working at all)

I have tried reflashing cyanogenmod two times, and tried both amon ra, clockwork and psfreedom recovery. Neither manages to make my Dream look like a mass stragedevic to any computer, and the PSFreedom version doesn't manage to do its thing either.
So something about the usb on my phone seems to be borked. Adb and fastboot works lik it shoud, and it charges, but it won't act as a mass storage or jailbreak device what so ever, and it do seem to be rom independent. Any ideas?

These instructions are for Windows 7:
First, plug in your phone with the USB cable. Try going to the Device Manager on your computer. Find your device (if you can), and right click > Properties. Click the "Driver" tab and then click "Update driver..." Now click "Browse my computer for driver software", then click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", then finally click "USB Mass Storage Device".
Then it shall install the driver. Go back Computer and see if it shows up under the Device and Removable Storage section.

First, do the usb icons appear at the top of the screen when you plug it in to the computer? There should be a icon that you can select to turn on usb storage. If you have that but it doesn't recognize it, I need to know more about your pc.
If there is no usb icon, replace the usb cable and try again. Also check the port on your phone and make sure there's no corrosion (green stuff)

Sleeps17: I'm not that dumb, luckilly, but thanks anyway.
It is solved now, after running a comlete wipe script, erasing everything from fastboot, and then reflashing radio, hboot and recovery from fastboot., I'm still a bit stumped as to what could have caused this. The USB icon did appear, and I could choose to mount USB storage, but I would just get errors in dmesg (running linux) onj my computer when i did.
I did try to flash a home-baked recovery image that there was something wrong with, along with a bunch of other recovery images. Guess something must have screwd something up.

[Q] USB de bugging mode problem.

Have a small problem created out of thin air. When I connect the phone to the computer with USB debugging mode it says "There might be problems with some files on this device or disc. It can happen if you remove the device or disc before all files have been transferred to the device or disc. Scan and fix(recommended) This will prevent future problems when copying files to this device or disc" and "Continue without scanning". Choosing either seems to make no difference."
Then when I do a search/scan for problems it says "there is nothing wrong to the device. its now ready for use". And then i can enter the sd card. I get this error message everytime i plug in the phone from the bugging mode. But if i connect it with "kies" mode is says nothing and the disc shows on the C drive. I am afraid that this will create problems if i want to transer something important by USB debugging in the future such new ROM or flash something else from the download mode....someone recognizes this problem? (computer Windows 7 64 bit)

As I know, the Kies connection does only work, if usb debugging is off.
Which kernel and rom are you using?

You need to be using touchwiz.. Launcherpro isn't compatible with kies

[Q]Does not show GT-N7000 when connected to pc

hi, when Rocket Rom 7 (ics) came out, i installed it. after doing this, when i connected my phone to the pc, the system detects the phone as Samsung_android and shows 2 removable drives in the system. however, if you click on them they dont work
it no longer detects my phone as GT-N7000
what i have noticed: when i connect the usb cable, the phone doesnt show "MTP connection" anymore... instead, it shows USB connected.
what has been done:
flashed rocket rom 10, nogo
reinstalled kies: nogo
reinstalled win7 (yes i actually did that even tho testing on other pcs showed the same issue)
the phone still charges and the only way i can connect my phone to d pc to view files is by clicking "usb storage"
any advice on this?

Uninstall kies, and just install driver (find latest from toolbox on my signature)
use different USB port, and dont use any extensor cable to connect device.

hi bro... didnt work... i dont think its the driver... its the phone... coz i tested another note, its working fine

My Galaxy Tab has similar issues. I believe it would be due to the architechture of the ROM forcing you to have to mount your device to your computer before being able to load the Device Internal SD, and the External SD.
Click USB Storage when it shows, this should pop up a window which has a Lil android dude, and USB Storage Message with a button stating 'Turn on USB Storage'. After clicking it, you can click 'Turn Off USB Storage' to unmount the device.

thanx for that.. hehe.. i stumbled across it the other day.. at least i can transfer files... but just dont like the fact its not showing...

[Help] USB Storage not mounting

Lately my PC refuses to detect any USB connection when I connect phone via USB cable. It charges and if I enable USB debugging I get a notification for that too but the USB utilities thing won't pop up that lets you choose the mode of connection(Mass storage etc.)
I have installed/reinstalled drivers over and over. Eventually it was working but now it won't even work once.
I need help!
Mounting from recovery does nothing either
On custom ROM (RRemix )
EDIT: Let windows update pick the drivers and now can connect as MTP device BUT still no USB utilities (Rom is cm11 based) so i don't really know what else to do :/

Storage and then menu..

Can you elaborate? I don't understand your answer

Anything I flash seems to aggravate the issue. Working fine for now after I installed kies but I am scared to flash anything else.
I dont know what the problem is/was. Can someone please help?

go to settings.. then storage. press menu and choose USB... you will get the menu to move from MTP to MS

can't transfer files from phone to pc,

Hi, i have a problem about transfer my fotographs from phone to pc. When i plugged usb cable, the phone starts just charging. I've checked several time to usb settings, MTP is open. I tried different cable and pc's. I'm definitely sure problem caused by the phone. Do you have any idea how to fix this ? I can not use smart switch at the same time.

Try wiping the Cache Partition in Recovery Mode. Or use a different cable.

Different cable is not working, i' m going to try wipe cache partition. Someone told me that, when you plugged phone to pc, if you can not choose connecting USB section in connections >
internet sharing, your usb port might be corrupted. I' m afraid of the port is corrupted.

Any solution??

Go into settings and make sure developer options is enabled and then actually go into developer options and scroll down until you see default USB connection and choose one while the phone is plugged into the computer if it already says transfer files then change it to charge mode and then change it back to transferring files and see if that works. If that doesn't work then open the dialing pad and put *#0808# and choose MTP + ADB or switch it back and forth.
