I am trying to restore a backup using helium backup and i need to put the device into ptp mode but i cannot change it to that there is only mtp and mass storage... any ideas?

I do not think the stock firmware supports PTP mode.

files transfer in download mode and recovery mode?

I tried a new kernel, but forgot to put the flash file on the internal card first. Now my phone wont boot as there is no OS on my phone. I can't mount the USB as it keep saying something about can only mount usb in idle mode. And I cant seem to mount USB in recovery mode either. MTP keep failing in windows.
Only way is somehow to transfer that damn zip file by Odin or some other ways
Any help?
Reboot into recovery got mounts and storage and the last option is Mount USB storage select that plug your sgs in and everything should be fine

Have you tried to plug the cable to a different USB port? Sometimes it resolves the issue as it needs to install new drivers on that port.
No Mount USB

Yea, So working on something very close.
I formated my phone, and then wiped all the data on it after. My problem is I wiped the ROM that I was using at the time (otherwise I would boot back up and replace my deleted ROM using Android file transfer). I've also deleted the new ROM (and everything else) on the internal SD card that I was going to switch to. How can I force a ROM back onto my SD card? I can't boot back into the phone save for Recovery, and dowload screens so I can't enable the phone to "act as a usb device"
I have CWR 6.0.1, and can only boot into that program, and the Samsung Download screen.
I tried to go to mounts but only see system, cache and data. I can mount and unmount those (but they don't change anything. I also have a /sdcard option to mount, but i can't do anything with it, it doesn't switch back and forth between mount and unmount like the others do. I don't see a Mount USB option like you were talking about above.
I am using a VZW GNex (toro)
Macbook running snow lepord.
Go to samfirmware and dowload the 2.3.6 rom for the i9000 anf flash it with odin next install cwm recovery and its done

Is the operating system working normally? If yes, you can use option "connect as media storage" as it isn't enabled by default

Hi azar
Did you tried to transfer using ADB . in your case if you have a custom recovery installed its possible
google this "transfer file using adb from recovery mode"
Hope this helps..
found the solution with recovery mode :
in windows hardware manager : delete adb I9100
in recovery mode press "unmount" : this will reload the phone driver and give full access to internal memory and sdcard on windows explorer
in your windows manager you should now see a warning device called GT-I9100
this worked after I reinstalled drivers (not from kies)
This problems happens because windows detects a new device and downloads this "adb driver" ONLY in recovery mode. So this is not the samsung driver.

which recovery lets you mount usb storage? if any?

ok, I understand about the mtp / usb mass storage issue but i have read people saying they mounted usb while in recovery.
i have tried cwm and teamwin but it says unable to mount storage..
is there anyway to do this where i can get pc or mac to recognise the phone as a drive so i can try and recovery my data? have lost everything, i know my own fault but need to find a solution
thanks

mi5 TWRP wipe

i have 4 questions, with short answers
my MI5 has TWRP3.1 + root+ bootloader unlocked+ global developer rom 8.3
all ok perfect. with TWRP i did factory reset ( which contains data and chache wipe) to have everything clean.
But
i still have some old application folders, files, even my old media inside the phone!
how to clean them? i want to delete all files which is not about new system.
1) in TWRP;
advanced - wipe system
or
advanced - wipe internal storage?
which one?
2) and if i delete all, i want to reflash new rom without quiting from TWRP,
, but new rom zip file will be deleted also i think ! so how can i reflash?
3)
i ve changed imei number of my phone , i hope my new imei number will not be deleted?
1. You also need to wipe internal storage.
2. You can still use mtp to pc or usb otg in twrp.
3. I don't know, sorry.

thanks,
while on TWRP its possbile to mtp to pc, but
after internal storage wipe, its not possbile to mtp to pc while on TWRP.
so, without quiting twrp screen, i used adb side load option of TWRP and flashed the rom from PC. ( i dont have otg cable)
and now its full clean system :good::good:
EDiT: imei numbers still exists.

After wiping internal storage, reboot twrp and reconnect to pc again. This way you can see internal storage in pc.
Flash zips via Adb Sideload is very useful when you have a computer with ADB cmd.
You can easily use MTP from TWRP.
or get an OTG cable.
As you changed your IMEI, Keep a backup of EFS partition from TWRP and upload it to Google drive.
if you get any error on network then just restore the efs backup from twrp.

Please advise the command Adb Sideload to upload the zip file.
