I would suggest checking the settings (developer options) make sure USB debugging is unchecked, which seems to put the device into mass storage mode

i already tried that but.... nothing

I also had the same problem......
Try all USB ports u have on your PC
One of them will surely work as it worked for me....
If it works keep that USB port reserved for tab...do not use any dial up or something like that.....
Try it .....
Hit thanks if I've helped

Does it support storage device(pen drive) via OTG

Hi friends,
I have usb otg cable which can connect my phone to usb pen drive but I am unable to find any info in file managers i downloaded from playstore since there is no default file manager, there is no mounting happen for my usb storage device.
Since its ICS which should support pendrives via usb connection by default so i am asking you all if u can verify the same.

Boot into TWRP and connect to PC. See if you can mount MTP that way. Not a fix but could get your files transferred. Also may prove if more than a ROM issue.

I have the same issue? An it still is not coming up with TWRP? I tried the DEV M preview, it's good. But will not connect to PC as MTP?
Usb debugging off, selected mtp in dev options, reboot phone. works now?

I'm actually on stock rooted and unlocked, so idk what's up

Have you tried a different cable? Different USB port?

I tried different ports but the phone will connect adb and ptp so I assumed it was the phone. When I connect using mtp, it makes the connection sound but nothing happens.

MTP mode not showing half the files

Hi, when I connect my phone to my PC using MTP mode it shows me only some of the files, most of the other files are missing.
This is becoming very annoying as I cannot see most of my files but can see them using the File Manager I am using on my phone.
Please help, is there a solution to this?
Is there a way I can mount the phone as a USB Mass Storage device?
Or maybe install a recovery without losing any of my data and then mount as USB mass storage using that recovery?
EDIT: I am running stock 5.1.1
I cannot upgrade to 6.0 until I get a backup of all my files.

Thank you.
But I would also like to know if it's possible to mount as USB Mass Storage.
Or is it completely impossible without losing my data?

Impossible, usb mass storage was removed from android. There is only mtp and ptp.

Maybe via a custom recovery?
Or that is not possible either?

TWRP only has MTP. No idea on CWM or Philz since I don't use them. But I would assume they use MTP as well.
USB mass storage was removed from android over 3 years ago in Jelly Bean. So the odds of it being in this 2014 device and it's recoveries would be slim to none. MTP is better for the android OS, less chance of corrupt files and crashes.

Okay, thanks.
But CyanogenMod did support UMS mode in 5.1.1, but doesn't seem to be there in 6.0.
One final question.
Using MTP mode to transfer photos changes their last modified date, messing up the dates on all my photos.
Any way to fix that?

You can try to use the MTP mode of TWRP. I've always had luck using it when not all files where shown in the booted up system.
I don't know any way to fix this, but copying files, as the name implies, will always create a new file at the target location, which will then have the creation date from when it was copied, as it is a new file.
You can actually sort these files after their original creation date in Windows but you'd need an android gallery app, that is able to do the same.

App folders are not visible when connected to PC

Guys,
I do not see any folders other than DCIM on the PC.
I used the stock cable.
Anyone else facing this issue or is it supposed to be like this?

Are you connected PTP or MTP, sounds like your connected in PTP transfer mode.

I have tried both. Does it work for you?

Mtp works if driver is installed right check device manager while in mtp mode, if you dont see R1 HD under portable devices, chances are driver not set up, try this
In device manager u will see the driver (probably under portable devices) anyhow it will have an exclamation mark on the device, just double click it to bring up properties windows, click the driver tab, then update driver, choose browse my computer for driver software, then click let me pick from a list.... It should come up with several driver choices, select MTP USB Device, that should do the trick, under device manager you should now see R1 HD in device manager, and the device will now show up in explorer.
