Hey, Sorry if this has been answered before but anyways;
I just rooted my streak 7 and put on the ICS Beta5.0.1 ROM. Now when I plug it into the PC nothing happens, it still charges fine, but nothing in the way of seeing the storage device in My Computer.
Is this a common problem with this build? (I didn't see anything about it in the build notes)
If not any ideas on how to fix?
If it is, what are some alternatives to accessing the internal memory? I want to put on Gapps via CWM, but as far as I can tell CWM only reads update zips from the internal memory... (If I'm wrong about this please correct me)
Any help would be great
Cheers!
Not sure if MTP is broken on that build or you may have to install drivers again. No, the only way to install Gapps is from CWM or TWRP. On the other hand a factory "Update.pkg" can only be installed from a factory recovery, CWM/TRWP can't do it.
Whoops! All must be done from an external SD card!
You need to possible reinstall drivers.

So I went into device manager and uninstalled the device.
Unplugged and plugged back in and it comes up as an 'MTP USB Device' under 'Portable Devices'.
So from the ADB drivers zip I pointed it to install the MTP driver (tried the ADB fastboot driver too but it wouldnt allow it).
It starts installing the MTP driver but it fails. The reason it gives is: 'This device Cannot start. (Code 10)
What OS are you running even?

Win7 64
I've only tested 5.0.1 for a couple hours, but MTP isnt particularly reliable on it.
Put gapps on an external sdcard and flash from there.
Yeah CWM (V6) doesn't recognise my external SD card for some reason. tried a couple of different cards too...
Anyways I just flashed back to stock 3.2, reinstalled PC drivers, put Gapps on the internal flashed back to ICS and loaded gapps through CWM. All is good.
Still won't connect to the PC on the ICS rom, but that's okay for now. Got everything I need.
Cheers.

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
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:

This morning I was playing around in CWM and clicked on format external sdcard
Well for some reason it formatted my internal card and I lost everything. I tried using a backup cwm made I guess prior to doing all that but it says MD5 mismatch.
I tried using cwm to get into usb mode but that didn't work.
I also tried using the sideload option but that also didn't work.
Tried getting into download mode and it still only boots to recovery.
How do I get a new rom put back on there?
clockworkmod has a way to mount internal storage on you PC while in recovery. Go to mounts and storage section in recovery and way at the bottom it says mount as USB storage. Plug your phone into your PC and wait for it to find drivers. I would recommend a internet connected windows 7 PC cause that's what I used and it worked fine.
You might have to unplug it and plug it back in once after the drivers are installed.

I just tried what you suggested and it doesn't work either....I think I really got it messed up...but I still think it can be fixed.
After doing what you said CWM says Error: mounting /data
I'm pretty sure my entire file system has been wiped clean.

Start with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953930
Once connected, you'll probably need to flash Odin KK4 without bootloaders and start fresh from there.

I finally was able to get the external sd card to be recognized by the phone....now I just cant get my micro sd adapter working so that I can get a new ROM put on there....
Any suggestions on that? LOL

Post in their forum topic, check to see if its a common bug among users.
Hi Friends,
In order to root and install CWM, I flashed PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT4-OXA-4.93.6-signed . The installation was successful and the device got rooted. But now I am not able to connect my phone to desktop or laptop in USB mass storage mode. When I do the same, only charging starts but not the USB connection. Just before performing the flashing, USB mass storage was working perfectly fine.
In brief, I followed below steps
1) start the phone in recovery mode
2) select install zip from sdcard
3) select the clock work mod zip file and start flashing process
4) Go back to main menu and reboot the device
I repeated the above process one more time but still no luck. I am new to rooting and still in learning phase. Galaxy Note is running on Jelly Bean 4.1.2 XXLT4. Please help me out with this issue.
Thanks in Advance,
Nikhil Bhalwankar
Try to boot into recovery and choose mounts and storage. Then mount usb and connect to pc. Check if the drives are mounted.

2. i cant connect my phone via usb
3. sim cards are not detected.
please help to fix this
After having some problems with my Xperia T (random reboots, reboot loops, crashes) on stock Android 4.3 I decided to give it a go and try to install Omnirom 4.4
I tried to follow this procedure to install Omnirom
1. I unlocked the bootloader using Sony's guide
2. Got root through towelroot
3. I installed TWRP, which seems to be recommend for the Xperia T, TWRP installed BusyBox Free (no idea what this does, but TWRP recommended installing this.
This is as far as I got. The problem I have is that I don't have access to the internal SDcard (my phone does not have a removable sdcard) when connected via USB to my computer.
The internal SD Card does not appear as 'mass storage' in my windows explorer, nor does the phone give me the option to access the internal sdcard as a storage device.
Therefore I cannot copy the Omnirom zip and the GAPPS to the internal sdcard.
I'm stuck here. I tried searching the web, but got no solution.
Anybody who give me a little help here?
I think you can mount the SD-card from TWRP, then you can access it from your computer. Not a TWRP user myself, but that's how it works from CWM
Sent from my LT30p using XDA Free mobile app
Going into -> TWRP -> Settings -> Storage Info
I have 2 options:
- External storage location
- USB-OTG location
What is what? And where should they point to?
Currently they are set to:
- External storage location: /storaga/sdcard0/media
- USB-OTG location: /storage/sdcard0
I can see the contents of the 'sdcard' but have no idea what to mount where.....
Seems right.
USB OTG is when you plug in a usb stick to your phone. So pretty unimportant.
Why cant you download the Omni zip with your phone?

Pluging the usb cable in the phone and pc doesn't seem to do anything. Windows Explorer doesn't show the internal memory card as a storage device, so I cannot transfer the Omni.zip
Pluging the usb cable in the phone also doesn't charge my phone ...
Even PC Companion doesn't find my phone. It keep searching and searching but doesn't find it.

If you have ADB drivers installed (from the Flashtools folder, for instance), you can access your entire phone through ADB while in recovery. Mounting USB storage to transfer files between TWRP and my PC has never worked for me; it has worked on CWM though, although I haven't used that method in ages since I prefer ADB.

Ok, I managed to get the omni rom .zip and gapps.zip to the sdcard using the adb push command.
I tried to install this via TWRP and select the zip file. Unfortunately when selecting 'reboot to recovery' in TWRP nothing seems to happen. The phone reboots, Sony and Xperia logo appear and the phone just starts as normal....
I can't get the phone into recovery. I tried to push the volume up, volume down, holding the volume up/down, push repeatingly .... etc nothing seems to work...
Some more info
- I verified that I'm root
- I reinstalled TWRP
- I downloaded and installed the recovery image in TWRP (for the xperia t this is 'mint')
- I tried other recovery tools such as Clockworkmod, but my device is no supported
- I tried 'Quickboot tool' to get into recovery, doesn't make any difference....
What am I missing?
I forgot to thank everybody who helped me out on this.
I managed to get access to the sd card, push customs roms (CM10 an CM11) and flash my phone. Unfortunately nothing helped fixing my Xperia T reboot problem. I flashed it back to the original Sony rom and returned it to the shop, up to 3 weeks without phone....
