[Q] Enable Mass Storage Mode. - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's package's are required to enabled Mass Storage Mode ?
Or any registry key, value or driver's?
How it works?

as far as I remember, Mass Storage Mode is set by an NVRAM value which is then read by the UEFI. Only a custom UEFI should be able to enable it. But I'd be happy to be proben wrong

[Q] Help, I cannot write to my external microsd [SOLVED]

I don't know why, I'm in mass storage mode and I expected to just be able to copy and paste files like in Samsung Wave (or any other phones) but I cannot do it in Galaxy S.
Never liked mass storage mode. Enable USB debugging mode instead. Go to menu ->settings ->Applications -> Development -> USB debugging. Once connected to the PC, pull down the notification menu and select connect.
Thank you. Tried it but it doesn't work too. The micro sd partitions do not appear even if usb mode (debugging) is connected already.
Am I the only one experiencing this?
did you pull the notification bar and choose to connect to ur comp? if ur on froyo, once you click " mass storage " you should then see a green android on the screen with the option to connect to the computer. if you dont see the notification, unplug the usb and try again.
SOLVED after updating my firmware to JPU. Thank you for the help guys! It was as I suspected. For some reason, my phone owned the external microsd's filesystem after formatting (I was using JP2 firmware). I formatted it again after flashing to JPU and voila, all problems fixed.

MTP issue

Hey,
I have a problem here, my device (SGN) isn't working properly in MTP mode, the thing is when I connect my phone to PC with a USB, SD card works fine and is read properly, the problem lies in the phone's internal memory, as soon as I open it up, the folders pop up which are in it, but when I open my "Music" (a folder in internal memory) my Windows explorer's top-bar shows green loading (as if it is reading files in it) but no files are shown up. And it was working fine in MTP mode this morning.
1. MyFiles in my phone reads all the files and folders properly as if there's no issue.
2. I have not rooted my device, it's the plain vanilla ROM, with no changes in it.
3. I tried to use my phone in mass storage mode, by going into "Settings > USB utilities > Mass Storage" and that way it works perfectly fine.
EDIT: Now it's not even detected when I connect it to PC in MTP mode, and there's no issue with my laptop as it is acting the same problematic way in my other PC.
Un-install the MTP USB drivers and reinstall it again. or try with other USB ports.

[Q] Conecting via USB

Is there any way to connect via usb as normal rather than as MTP on the NOTE. On MY SGS II I can connect the USB cable, and then from the drop down menu just select connect via USB and bingo both cards appear
I've looked in settings for USB connection but all i can find is the choice to swtich between MTP and PTP.
Which rom are you on ?
@Galaxy Note™…
why do you want to use uass storage mode? MTP is better in my opinion
Mass storage mode is quicker, so better if you are transferring large files.
I leave it as MTP most of the time though as you can still use the phone and access the files on the phone (except when you transfer a file and then it has to do a scan again).
If you are on GB, go into Settings>Applications>Development and enable USB debugging. It will then connect in mass storage mode.
If you are in ICS, Settings>More>USB Utilities>Connect storage to PC
how much faster? personally, safe removing the device in windows, and stopping of sd dependent applications cause too much trouble.
i usually use samba to copy files. which is even slower

USB storage mode: PC / Mac / Linux

Not sure if I could find this info anywhere but does this device support USB storage mode out of the box for the 3 OS'es i've mentioned?
If not is this something the devs can cook into their roms? Already being done?
thanks. This is a very important feature since the device has no removable storage.
There is only MTP.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As far as I know, this is not possible due to the changes of how the external storage is handled within the operating system. On stock Rom with stock kernel you are limited to camera and media device.
Best wishes,
Christian
İ found to how can i do this. İt is possible with application and working for Samsung Galaxy S4 series. You need BusyBox and Root.
Download USB Mass Storage Enabler from here
Download BusyBox from here
Connect ur device with your usb cable
Open the USB Mass Storage Enabler and tap to Mass Storage Mode
and its that.
Yeap, BusyBox and SG USB Mass Storage Enabler will do that for you.
It worked for me on 4.2 and 4.3 ROMs, but it no longer works in KitKat. Haven't yet found a way to enable it in KK.
