I'm having problems with my USB on my Epic. I had a DK28 "stock" on my phone and was noticing a few problems. I wanted to switch back to regular stock so that I could flash a new ROM from a fresh start. My phone wouldn't transfer files over USB tho, even when I had selected to mount the card, etc. So I returned to stock, and I've having the same problem. I finally got it to let me access the SD card over USB, but now that I'm on stock, I can't root! When I pull files from the SD card, my read speeds drop to near 117kb/s. Thing is, Download mode and odin work flawlessly. If I'm in debugging mode, I can't get to the SD card at all. The "drive" will never show up. I'm completely lost, and I'm one step away from using my phone insurance... Any help would be appreciated! Help me XDA community, you're my only hope....*looks back then leans forward to turn off PC*
Did you try another USB cable? The one that comes with the phone is junk. Also try reinstalling the epic drivers. Good luck

I have rooted several times in the past. I believe I know what I am doing. Now that I have this ROM installed, when I plug my Evo into the usb, it does not even prompt me for connection type, such as internet sharing, mount disk etc. I try toggling usb debugging, still no go. What should I do? As of now I can not access my SD card because USB does not work, even tho the LED comes on as if it is charging.
This might help

I did the SD card thing. Didn't change anything. Can't do Fix USB because I can't access my SD card.
What rom are you using? Was it working previously? I'd try a restore from the last time you knew it was working.
Edit: can your computer read the Sd card if you put in a reader?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702374
how would I do a restore? Also, I don't have a microSD card reader but I guess I will get one.
Any more ideas broskis? Sucks not being able to flash more roms. The "Choose a connection" box doesn't even pop up when plugged in via usb.
I got this a couple times today. Dunno what's up. Maybe an apk that was removed? Mine doesn't even want to charge anymore. 0.0 phone will charge for a second then nothing. Only have 40% life left.... ((
EVO disk drive confusion....
Hey guys, really new to the technical aspects of the android scene.... looking for some help....
I have an EVO 4g that WILL NOT mount as disk drive, on either of my 2 WIN 7 computers; it will charge, and the physical connection doesn't appear to be lose or damaged, as it connects to charge without problems. This is rooted w/ unrEVOked 3. Computer doesn't recognize it at all, either debugging off or on, with my default choice being 'mount as disk drive' and 'ask me every time' chosen.
It is not the USB port on the computer nor the cable, because another EVO, although newer, same setup, connected in the same way works just fine....
I have no issues with the phone reading the SD Card app2SD programs that I have on it... I have tried removing the SD card and battery and reseating them with nothing changing.... I rarely connect to the computer..... but I have almost the same set up on both phones as far as programs, ROOT method, etc.....
What should I look for that causes the computer not to recognize this one???
Any and all help would be appreciated, and I would be HAPPY to donate to any of you DEVS that can help me find and fix this!!!!!
THANKS!!!

Hey guys....first off, you guys all do great work as this is the first question I've needed to ask that I couldn't find the answers for....so my problem is I've been rooted for the last 5 months and I was making a NANDROID back up in recovery, went to reboot the phone and got the dreaded 5-vibrate, green LED error. I've searched all over and see that there really is no fix for that. My replacement is already here and I'm sending the old one back tomorrow. Problem is, the phone can't access the SD card so I can't put S-On......in hboot the phone does say S-on but I can boot it up if its plugged in through USB (and of course OMFGB boots up).
I've looked through these forums and found some similar results for unrooting without an SD card, but nothing seems to work. My laptop doesn't detect internal storage or SD card.......so do I just have to hope the factory doesn't get the phone to boot (if they dont try with it plugged in it won't)? Or is there some way you could download a file from the phone browser that could be applied??
Thanks in advance
To get s-on you could try using z4root. It has an unroot option

Can you not download the windows installer of the stock ROM? The RUU can be found here and just hook your phone up via USB cable and load it up
I don't think you need an SD card for that.
Worth a shot
Well the problem was my computer wouldn't recognize the phone either, would just say something like "qualcomm device" then would error out after a few seconds. Once my replacement got here I put the stock ROM on the SD card and tried again with the defective phone and, miraculously, it unrooted........thanks for your advice!
For some reason, my phone will not give me the option to mount my SD card as a disk drive all of a sudden...
I'm using CM 7.0.2.1 with Tiamat 3.3.8 as my kernel. Anyone know how I might be able to fix it?? I'm trying to put KingdomRom on it but can't because I can't mount .
I've also tried a full wipe and reinstalling the ROM with a different kernel...and I'm still not getting anything. I've tried multiple USB cords as well.
I would try unmounting your SD card in Settings then reboot the phone.
Didn't work . I thought originally it might have something to do with the kernel, but I've changed to a different one and it still isn't working.
When you connect your phone to the computer, does the charging light come on? What happens when you tap the notification that says your phone is connected to the computer? Do you get the screen with the option to mount and it doesn't, or do you not get the notification at all?
Have you tried using something like Widgetsoid to toggle usb mount? I had a similar problem on Sense and using a widget to toggle mounting the phone as disk drive was the only way I could get it to work.

Also, what recovery are you using?
Sent from my sometimes infected,MIUI,Kings UNleashed Ultra Supersonic EVO...
Using ClockworkMod. I just stupidly reformatted my SD card after reflashing my ROM, so now once I am able to redownload GApps, I'm gonna download one of the widgets (might try AutoSync, too) and see if I can make progress in the morning.
Update: Got Market back on, downloaded Widgetsoid, enabled USB Mount...and still nothing. I've tried on 2 computers now with different USB cables and nothing.
Is it saying that your phone is connected to your PC at all? It could be your USB port, or your cable is going bad. Try plugging it in to the computer and jiggling the plug near the phone's usb port and see if it tries to connect. If it does, you may have to move it around until you get it to connect and then be very careful not to move anything while transferring files. Also if you have wifi you can transfer files by using an app from the market called wifi file explorer. They have a free and a paid version. Does you phone connect when you mount it to the computer in recovery mode? Does the charging light come on when you plug it in to your computer? Really more info is needed to diagnose your problem. There are also widgets in the market that will allow you to mount the phones storage without unmounting the card from the phone. Maybe this will work for you. Maybe the card is going bad? Who knows, but hopefully some of my suggestions help. If all else fails, you could always do it the old fashioned way and power the phone off, take the card out and plug it directly into your computer via the adapter if needed.
Yes, I do receive a charge light when I plug it into the computers USB. Android just does not provide the option to mount as a disk drive.
I like the Wifi File Explorer Idea. It sounds like a good alternative. Thanks so much to everyone for their suggestions!
My EVO randomly stopped mounting to computers yesterday. I say randomly because I did not install or flash anything. It just worked one day and then stopped the next. It charges fine but when I plug it into a computer it only charges. I do not get the notification in the bar saying charge only or even the choice to pick if I would like to mount. It acts as if I have just plugged it into a wall charger.
I am currently running:
Myn's Warm 2.2 rls 5
2.6.32.27-netarchy-toastmod-4.3.4-cfs-havs-less-nosbc
Any Ideas?
You basically have 2 choices: Mount the card via recovery (plug the EVO to your computer via USB and then select MS-USB from within recovery.) or reflash the rom. Yes, there are other methods, but I'm mentioning to 2 common method.

Doh! Forgot to post what I've tried. I did try mounting from recovery (amon-ra) and I get no response from the computer. I then tried a complete wipe. Booted up with the same issue. I checked the memory card with a card reader for errors in windows and got nothing. I tried another memory card in EVO with no difference.
Would it be worth flashing a different rom even though Myn worked with no problems for the past 4 months?

After you did a complete wipe, did you restore Myn's from a backup or did you reflash? If you reflashed the rom, the card should have been mountable. You can insert the card into your card reader and copy its contents onto your computer and then re-partition and re-format the card. Copy the contents back onto the card afterwards. After that, reinsert the card back into your EVO and see if it'll mount for you.

Yes, it is worth a try, but I would try re-partitioning and re-formatting the card first to see if that will help.

I had this problem with a non-rooted Evo. I could not get it to even give the option, then randomly it would work once out of every 20 tries.
After rooting my phone and flashing CM6, it worked.
It could also be your computer or your usb cable. If you haven't, try rebooting your computer.
Repartitioning your card is probably a good idea. I recently repartitioned mine through Amon Ra . Now whenever I connect to my computer it wants to scan & fix it, but I just skip it. Just letting you know in case you run into the same thing.

I had a somewhat similar issue recently. In my case, rebooting the phone fixed things. Also it can't hurt to try a different USB port on your computer. If you have any other android devices that you connect to your pc (like a tablet or another phone) it can cause this too. rebooting the pc may be worth a try as well.
I did not wanted to make a new thread for this, but I gave up.
I installed Juggernaut v2.6 a couple of days ago.
I did everything in how to install it in the OP.
Since then, I can not connect my phone to the computer, it charges it, but can't read my SD Card or the internal memory. I tried 3 other computer and they are the same.
I checked and unchecked USB Debugging and is not showing up in the notification bar.
I format my internal and external memory and nothing.
Try Odin and It can not read the phone.
I deleted the drives and reinstalled then, installed kies, bought a new usb cable and nothing.
Used my friend's SGS2 USB Cable and nothing.
My computer reads my friend's SGS2 Internal and External Memory.
Everything works on the phone, CWM, boots in recovery, etc
The only thing that my phone does when plug to a computer is charging.
Does not gives me the option to install a new drive.
I will really appreciate if anyone can help me out or guide me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Mr Creeper 98
Have you tried a different cable?
Also, have you tried turning debugging off, plugging in, unplug turn it back on, plugging it back in?

I did all that plus more, I even used my buddy's usb which has the same phone as I and nothing. I can still flash roms, I just have to take my SD Card out and insert it in card reader. Not sure what else to do, Run out of options.
Renew you Juggernaut to latest one
